    Chapter 47 47[VIP]

    Tan Quelu finished eating fish balls and thick noodles amidst the commotion.

    The noodle stall was located on the inside of the road, with Wei Zhiyan and Xia Xing standing on the outside, with a short distance between them.

    Tan Quelu sat on the edge, eating noodles and blinking at the fight between Wei Zhiyan and Xia Xing.

    The two of them had become enemies after fighting each other yesterday, and now they wanted to kill each other.It’s just that from Tan Quelu’s point of view, this level is similar to that of rookie chickens pecking each other.

    Passersby walked around the two psychos.

    Some of them picked up their mobile phones and wanted to secretly take pictures. Wei Zhiyan finally came to his senses, kicked Xia Xing away violently, and gave him a cold look with bruised brows.

    Without waiting for passers-by to take photos, he turned and left.

    Xia Xing raised his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth, sneered, stood up quickly, and left in the same car.

    The two of them were only focused on fighting among themselves, and no one noticed Tan Qielu just a few steps away.

    The system was furious: [What do these two idiots mean?My pure, innocent, lovely and kind host is sitting here, and they don’t even see it?If you’re blind, go get it cured!】

    Tan Quelu blinked, chewed the last fish ball without any hesitation, nodded and commented: “It’s delicious.”

    He marked this place on Dianping and gave it a five-star rating, and then took a leisurely stroll back to school.

    St. Weston was as lively as ever.

    Because of the system reform, special enrollment students no longer have to work part-time to earn credits, so they have more free time.Along the way, major libraries are where they spend the longest time.

    When the campus charity fund was established, students in Class A protested the most, but when it came to rankings, they actually donated the most.There is a latest list on the Dome app, and the top fifty are all from Class A. There are so many zeros after the donation number that it’s staggering.

    The top three are still the familiar F3 small group.

    Several trucks carrying fresh ingredients were parked at the entrance of the canteen, checking with the canteen manager.The clothing company went to the purchasing office with the latest quarter’s design clothes to discuss the materials used for welfare clothing.The AI ​​swarm flew over at low altitude, and the robotic arm carried another box of welfare subsidies to the residence of special enrollment students.

    There are no longer frequent sounds of begging for mercy or cries of pain from the hidden areas of the campus.

    Tanquelu walked slowly on the gravel road, feeling the subtle changes in the atmosphere of St. Weston.

    Ruddy-faced special admissions students kept passing by him, smiling and saying hello, and he responded with a smile, and his steps gradually became brisk.

    System: [Not bad, not bad, this looks like a normal campus!Get away with bullying and all that!】

    [Host, what are we going to do next?】

    “What not to do?”

    Tan Quelu scanned her iris, walked into the library near the dormitory building, took out papers and study materials, and said in a good mood: “Did you forget something?”

    “I still have a task to get a perfect score.”

    There is still one month left for the midterm exam in the plot, and Tan Quelu must get full marks, otherwise according to regulations, he will be strangled together with the system.

    【……】

    The system was shocked for three seconds, and then became confident again: [It’s okay, host, I’ve been watching it these days!】

    [You are constantly improving in your studies, and all the professors sincerely praise you. I believe you can get the first place!】

    [If it doesn’t work out, you said on the day of the exam that you want to get back together with the F3s.】

    The system cleverly came up with an idea: [As long as anyone first flies to Venezuela to mine a barrel of oil with his own hands, then goes to Africa to dig out a two-carat diamond with his own hands, and finally goes to the Sahara Desert to bottle a bottle of oasis spring water with his own hands.】

    [In the end, they will all be shipped back to the country and given to you to prove your strength. You can choose whoever you want.By then, the midterm exam must be over!】

    Tan Quelv hummed, her expression as usual: “Why don’t you let them go to the Amazon jungle to pick bananas for me with their own hands.”

    [Because the host doesn’t like bananas, hey, I won’t tell you!】

    Tan Quelu couldn’t help but laugh.

    The system watched him lower his head, chuckled and began to learn to read. The sunlight fell on his face, casting gray shadows on the young man’s fine eyelashes, which were light and light, like butterfly wings.

    It suddenly discovered that Tanquelu began to become flesh and blood.

    He no longer prays nervously late at night, no longer holds the pen and writes the sentence “Absolutely Beautiful” slowly and hard, no longer deliberately treats his body harshly, and no longer occasionally suffers from indifference and fanaticism.

    Eat, sleep, dress.

    Study, write papers, watch cartoons.

    Always happy, occasionally confused, breaking up on a cliff, seamlessly.

    This is the life that an innocent eighteen-year-old boy should have!

    The system rolled around happily, looking at the host with joy, selectively forgetting the existence of Wei Guan, feeling that he had raised him really well!

    It knew that if it dragged Tan Quelu into the new world, things would turn around.

    The warm autumn sun is slowly falling.

    Because she had to prepare for the exam, Tan Quelu ruthlessly cut off contact with all the characters.

    Whether it’s Wei Zhiyan who just got together, Xie Chenbi in the hospital bed, or Zhong Wan who was released on bail and returned to Xie’s house.

    Including Xia Xing, who still lives in dormitory 401.

    Do Not Disturb was enabled on WeChat. Apart from eating, sleeping and attending classes, Tan Quelu only went in and out of major libraries. On the day of her elective class, she disappeared and was picked up to practice at Wei’s house as usual.

    Wei Guan sometimes accompanies him, sometimes goes to work, and sometimes teaches him how to solve problems.

    But no matter what, he will return home from Eden and meet Qinglu.

    The phone keeps vibrating.

    Familiar and bright Weijia restaurant.

    Wei Guan finished peeling the shrimp for Quelu, took off his gloves and asked the servant to change the bone plate, and raised his eyes: “Would you like to continue practicing the piano this afternoon?”

    “Yes.” Tan Quelu took a bite of the shrimp, reciprocated, and helped Wei Guan pick up a piece of turbot: “I feel very good recently. If I practice more, I will surprise everyone on the exam day.”

    Wei Guan smiled and motioned for him to look at his phone: “There is information.”

    “If you don’t look, it must be those people again.” Tan Quelu was too lazy to care: “I have to study now, so I don’t have time to deal with them.”

    He remembered something and asked Wei Guan: “Is the midterm exam important?”

    “I heard that the elective courses will be open to the public. There will be photographers on site to record the videos, and parents and students will also come to watch.”

    Wei Guan hummed and explained calmly: “Saint Weston’s tradition.”

    “There is a performance stage for all grade exams, once every semester. This kind of performance is considered a positive exposure. The school will select videos suitable for publicity and stream them on each social platform based on the final scores and voting results.”

    The upper classes and rich families are human beings too.

    Their vanity is greater than that of ordinary people. In addition to the chickens themselves, of course they also want chicken babies.And students like to be in the spotlight. After the video is streamed, it will be seen by more people, so naturally they have to work hard to perform.

    Today’s society is so fast-paced, and public opinion tends to follow marketing.Entrepreneur, son and daughter of a wealthy family, white, rich and beautiful, tall, rich and handsome…these good names all represent a certain label, which conveys the sense of relaxation that can be obtained without any effort.

    When the public clicks on the tag, whether it likes or comments, likes or dislikes, it can be converted into a part of the market traffic.

    “St. Weston’s annual elective exams are not only videotaped, but also have a special venue for students and parents to watch in the audience.”

    Equestrian venues, racing venues, ski resorts, fencing gyms… Anyway, they have money and land, so they can build any venue.

    Wei Guan said: “Traffic and marketing will fix the public’s impression.”

    All parties tacitly regard the examination as a venue for exposure, so over the years, special admissions have never appeared in the main video.

    The school usually only films them in peripheral and unpopular courses such as cooking or flower arranging.

    And “advanced” courses such as horse riding, fencing, racing, etc. naturally belong only to the upper class.

    Tan Quelu said in confusion, clicked on Saint Weston’s official account on a certain channel, and saw a video with hundreds of thousands of likes.

    It even got a million likes.

    Without exception, they all photographed the luxurious and vast environment of St. Weston, and the comments were full of envy, praising the excellence and unattainability of these students.

    Tanquelu likes individual comments made by those who hate rich people without any hesitation.

    [Haha, stupid rich people]

    [These young masters have been provoking me]

    [There is no obligation to provide emotional value to rich people!]

    Fingertips paused.

    He suddenly clicked on the official account introduction and looked at the line of text: “The student with the most likes on the platform each semester will be awarded the title of outstanding student by the school and a reward of 200,000?”

    And bonuses??

    Wei Guan hummed and met Tan’s green eyes.

    The young man raised his eyes, looking at him innocently and blankly, his eyelashes blinking, showing his stubbornness to bear the white lotus.

    Every time he does this, he just wants Uncle Wei to help.

    Wei Guan looked at him, and after a long moment, he couldn’t help laughing: “Don’t play with your phone while eating.”

    “Oh.” Tan Quelu put down her phone obediently, blinked her eyes, and said directly: “Wei Guan, I want to be on TV too.”

    He also wants to be on the homepage of St. Weston and get a bonus of 200,000.

    Wei Guan nodded and said calmly: “I can’t get it.”

    “The last page of this year’s credit reform contains this provision.”

    The system quickly helped the host search, and cheered after a few seconds: [Host, the boss is right!This year’s reform of St. Weston has a stipulation at the end of the contract that the official account’s share of filming for the annual exam must be four or six points higher than that of the special enrollment, and the selection will be fair based on performance!】

    [You were among the top ten in Class A in the final exam last week, which is quite worthy of your share!】

    It turns out that Wei Guan had thought of this so early.

    I feel very happy to talk about the beauty.

    He’s in a fantastic state right now.Just like a stagnant child growing up again, clumsily learning to express emotions normally and accept himself.

    The young man put down his knife and fork and suddenly stood up.

    On the side, the butler who came to deliver drinks stopped dead in his tracks.

    With her eyes widened, she watched the thin boy walk to the opposite side in a few steps. She was caught off guard and raised her hand, hugging Mr. Wei hard.

    The restaurant suddenly fell silent.

    The young man jerked.

    The boy’s breath was familiar and warm.

    The distance was too close, so he rested his head on Wei Guan’s neck, like a green bird resting lightly on Wei Guan’s shoulder, chirping and breathing. He was so moved that he wanted to cry: “Hey… Wei Guan, thank you.”

    Especially the little bird clings to people.

    “…”

    Tan Quelu was very tall, and Wei Guan was sitting again, but the boy just awkwardly leaned his head on his shoulder, and the lines of his spine were weirdly twisted, like an anime villain.

    Wei Guan breathed very slowly.

    He should stand up and hug the person.

    But I don’t know why.

    The young man sat there, also strangely motionless.

    Tan Quelu rubbed Wei Guan’s straight shoulder, her soft hair brushed against the man’s Adam’s apple, and the tips of her porcelain white ears occasionally brushed against the man’s chin.

    Skin touching, the scent of the two people intertwined in the small space, slowly becoming moist and warm.

    Pervasive citrus flavor.

    Tan Quelu blinked, suddenly noticed something, and raised his head in confusion: “Wei Guan, why don’t you move?”

    The man always sits in the chair, like an AI robot.

    Wei Guan didn’t answer, he just raised his hand and clasped his wrist completely with his long knuckles to prevent Tan Quelu from continuing to rub down unconsciously.

    The young man had handsome features, dark pupils, and was unusually calm.

    He lowered his eyes, picked up the green tea on the table with his other hand, and put it to the young man’s mouth without changing his expression: “Drink tea.”

    “…Oh.”

    Although Tan Quelu didn’t understand, she still drank the tea obediently and praised her in a flattering manner: “You changed the tea again? This tea is good, more fragrant than last time!”

    Wei looked at him for a while, hummed, and repeated with dark eyes: “It tastes better than last time.”

    Tanquelv is really fragrant.

    He gently touched the top of the young man’s hair, and for a moment, he took the initiative to distance the two of them, maintaining a sense of intimacy without taking advantage of him.

    The system in his mind suddenly narrowed its eyes.

    The electronic voice made a sound, and it tried to dig down in the host’s field of vision, suspiciously trying to see the place under the dining table.

    ——Why did it feel like there was something very energetic just now?

    Something is rising from the ground.

    Something asserts its presence.

    Something stood up instantly.

    What stuff?

    The system is so confusing, so cute, so confused and at a loss!

    In the end, the system still failed to figure out what the mysterious thing was.

    Because after finishing the meal, Wei Guan still sat there and let Tan Quelu go to the villa to practice the piano.

    “Some work to do.”

    He said: “I’ll come back later.”

    Tan Quelu looked at the finished plate in front of her, and then at the butler who lowered his head and pretended to be dead.

    What work needs to be done at the dining table?Practice collecting dishes and washing dishes?

    Tan Quelu blinked, glanced at Wei Guan suspiciously, turned around and left alone.

    Not a word was spoken in such a large restaurant, which was quieter than a cemetery late at night.

    The butler stared at the floor, said nothing or asked anything, and took the lead in running away with the servant.

    ——Oh my God!It’s all her fault!My bestie is waiting for me, now we really want to chat all night long!

    I don’t know how much time passed.

    The young man finally raised his hand and took a sip of the cold green tea.

    The aroma of tea fills the tip of your nose.

    Wei Guan stood up, walked into the bathroom on the first floor, closed the door without changing his expression, and turned on the shower head.

    After practicing the piano that day, Tan Quelu received a gift from Wei Guan.

    A thin silver necklace, made of an unknown material, with a beautiful halo.The pendant is a frozen emerald, removable and very flattering to your skin tone.

    “I was on a business trip to Avalon last week and passed by a second-hand store.”

    Wei Guan lowered his eyes and helped him put it on without glancing down the boy’s loose collar: “I thought it suited you very well, so I bought it.”

    Tan Quelu groaned and looked at the man’s sharp Adam’s apple.

    The necklace was quickly put on.

    The thin silver chain is like moonlight or like the sparkling waves on the water, wrapped around the slender white neck. The gems set off the young man’s skin to a white complexion, which is particularly brilliant.

    Tan Quelu was so amazed that she couldn’t put it down: “Thank you.”

    “I really like it.”

    Wei Guan hummed, leaned against the organ, and looked at the happy Qinglu with handsome eyebrows: “As long as you like it.”

    The sun shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The man is wearing white clothes and black trousers, making him look extra tall.

    After a while, Wei Guan said, “Can I visit you during the exam days?”

    After chatting for a while, he stared at the young man in the mirror and blinked: “…Okay.”

    In fact, Tan Quelu asked Wei Guan this question today because he wanted Wei Guan to take the time to see him.

    Some people have been discussing the midterm exam on the forum these days, and everyone seems to have parents coming to watch.

    Most of the special admissions students were orphans, but there was a special exception in St. Weston. During the exam days, the dean and the children from the orphanage were allowed to attend the ceremony. After all, there were cameras on that day, and it was also an opportunity for a charity show.

    Only Tanquelv was worn.

    The graves of the wandering predecessors who pulled him are covered with grass, the mothers and fathers who raised him are crying behind bars, and the system is an extraordinary electronic waste with no entity.

    And those beautiful handmade umbrellas that have always been with him cannot be transformed into humans.

    Tan Quelu didn’t want to be like before, sitting in front of the organ and playing alone. No matter how many people in the audience looked at him, his heart was always empty and indifferent.

    Wei looked at the young man for a moment, then said calmly: “Thank you for your permission.”

    “You are so outstanding. I am particularly honored to sit in the audience and applaud you.”

    Tanque’s green eyes curled up and she couldn’t help but smile: “Don’t be complacent, I still want to invite many people, such as -”

    “For example, the driver aunt, the housekeeper aunt, the security captain, Vivian.”

    “For example, the person in charge of the Green Green Foundation, all the children in Green Green Welfare Home, and Eden’s senior secretarial team.”

    Wei Guan finished talking about Tan Quelu without changing his expression.

    The young man was stunned and looked at him in confusion: “…how do you know everything!”

    ——Lvlu Foundation is the name of the charity fund established by Weiguan after Tanquelu sold his church.

    The same goes for Green Green Welfare Home.

    Vivian is one of the people who added him on WeChat last time and has been responsible for this project.Eden’s senior secretarial team occasionally had gifts from Weiguan, and when they were too busy to get away, they would spend the bonus money to help send them to St. Weston.

    The security captain, on the other hand, did not stop him from teaching those young masters the last time he returned to the pool.

    Tanquelu remembers everyone.

    And Wei Guan also knew that he would remember everyone.

    “Does St. Weston make you a little happier now?”

    He said that he wanted to create an absolutely wonderful little universe for him.

    Tan Quelu looked at Wei Guan for a while, then nodded gently: “Yes.”

    The young man smiled.

    He was just about to say something.

    Tan Quelu suddenly came over, raised her hand, hugged Wei Guan, and held each other tightly.

    “Remember to videotape me then.”

    He put his head on the man’s shoulder: “Wei Guan, I want to make a film.”

    “…”

    The system that was wandering in the data stream suddenly became energetic.

    It jumped up and suddenly excitedly appeared in the host’s field of vision. It scanned the view back and forth vigilantly and asked suspiciously: “Where is the thing?”Where is it hidden?!】

    【Come out!I clearly felt it while eating!】

    [What about the guy who built a tall building from the ground?What about that thing that looks very energetic when standing up?What about that mysterious thing?!】

    [Come out, I, Lao Sun, will destroy you!】

    Neurosis and epilepsy.

    Talk about the green face without changing color and block out the stupid system.

    Wei looked at the floor for a long time, raised his hand and touched the top of his hair, and said, “Okay.”

    “But next time you want to hug, you can tell me first.”

    Tan Quelu ah made a sound, very confused: “Why?”

    It’s like this in cartoons.Post it when you are happy.

    Because he was afraid of an accident if he did it a few more times.

    First understand what love is, then understand what sex is.Confusion would only bring confusion, and he didn’t want to offend him.

    Wei Guan looked at the pure and beautiful green eyes.

    After a while, the young man explained without changing his expression: “Because you are too innocent and stubborn.”

    “I think you are very sacred, your little white flower is very pure.”

    “So next time, tell me first.”

    As long as Weiguan gives a reason.

    No matter how illogical it is, Tan Quelu’s brain circuit will automatically understand it, and then suddenly realize: “That’s it.”

    He nodded knowingly: “Okay, I’ll tell you next time. What about this time?”

    Wei Guan lowered his eyes, for a moment, tightened his arms, and slowly took the thin and warm bird into his arms.

    “This time.”

    “Let’s just hold each other for a while.”

    The system is extremely angry.

    Until it left the Wei family, it had not found that spiritual mysterious substance!

    It simply damages the reputation of its electronic products!

    Tan Quelu was too lazy to pay attention to it, so she returned to St. Weston, walked into the elevator through the back door, and returned to the room all the way to close the door.

    Looking down from the small balcony, you can vaguely see Wei Zhiyan’s lonely figure.

    The young man has handsome features, like a lost left-behind child, or a lonely old man guarding the village, staring longingly at the intersection, waiting for Tanquelu to appear.

    ——Wei Zhiyan and Xia Xing are not enjoying themselves these days.

    Tan Quelu looked as usual, went to and from class as usual, had dinner with Xia Xing, and occasionally talked to Wei Zhiyan.

    It was just a topic that used to be a good conversation topic, but he suddenly stopped taking it.

    Whether it’s new jewelry styles, clothes, bags, or auction items… In the past, Tan Quelu would respond with a smile, ask questions, and look at them while they talked.

    What new restaurants have opened nearby? We will discuss where to eat tonight.

    If you read any gossip about rich families on the Internet, you will be interested in chatting with them.

    The school has come up with some new stupid policy, and the talkers will helplessly listen to their complaints.

    But after returning from the hospital that day.

    These topics suddenly became useless.

    Tan Quelu stopped blinking at them and kept a smile on her face. However, she didn’t say more than three words before she left with her bag.

    She would shamelessly sit across from him during meals, talk about love affairs, and not chase anyone away. She would just take photos and record them, and then send messages to someone.

    Ask him who he sent it to, and he ignores you. After talking, he looks up and says it’s none of your business.

    She wanted to hold hands with him intimately, but was thrown away without mercy.The young man who had let them hug and hold hands in the past frowned, stared at the test paper seriously, and said impatiently, “Can you please not disturb me.”

    After pondering for a long time, I finally quietly turned on the TV in the living room late at night and accidentally played a bloody horror movie.Expecting the boy to act like usual, he glanced at him while drinking water and immediately screamed, subconsciously looking for him, throwing himself into his arms and saying he was scared.

    But the young man passed by the living room and drank the water without changing his expression. He seemed not to have seen the distorted human faces, body parts and screams on the screen. He walked away without even bothering to move his eyelids and closed the door of the room with a bang.

    “…”

    This simply overwhelmed Wei Zhiyan and the others.

    Because Tan Quelu seems like a different person.

    One they had never known.

    She smiled innocently, but was actually cold and distant, and disliked them very much.

    Complete strangers.

    How could it be?

    This is impossible.

    How could anyone have such good acting skills and easily fool all of them without even realizing it?

    Was he angry because he lost him in the hospital that day?

    It must be.

    But until the midterm exam began, Xie Chenbi recovered, Zhong Wan was released on bail, and everyone returned to school.

    Tan Quelu has never returned to his original appearance.

    The St. Weston campus is bustling with activity.

    Wei Zhiyan, wearing a windbreaker, stood outside the door, looking at the innocent boy in the classroom who lowered his head and took out a pencil.

    He suddenly had a vague and frightening premonition——

    The end and beginning of this complicated relationship were never decided by them.

    And now.

    Tanquelv is going to end it all.

    The author has something to say:

    Start thinking of them all one by one~

    Note
