Chapter 7 - Gu Zhen (I)

After a moment, Linfeng woke up from his stupor. Linfeng left the junior's building. He drove to the seniors' building, but he got blocked by a large crowd in a parking area. Getting out of the car, Linfeng left the car with the driver. He walked to the entrance, not even bothering about what was with the crowd. It was unusual to see the rich students who place importance on their etiquette and manner suddenly act like this. But Linfeng did not bother. The moment he stepped into the entrance, an arm suddenly reached out to him. Reflexively, Linfeng got hold of his arm and was about to break it when the owner of the arm cried. "Hey, Linfeng! It's me! Your precious friend!" Linfeng recognized the voice. He let go of the arm and ignored the boy who proclaimed his 'precious friend' and continued to walk. The boy let out a pained look. " Linfeng, wait! Why are you being so cold towards your precious friend? I'm the only friend you have, you have to treasure me." Linfeng finally looked at him coldly with an expression, ' Don't bother me. The boy ignored this and continued with his antics. He seemed familiar with Linfeng's cold behavior. Linfeng was cold to everyone and remained distant from them. Even though he was an aide, he was respected and revered. He ranked first on the school board. Coupled with his unrivaled talents and extremely handsome looks, he was famous, especially to girls. Many young miss want to recruit Linfeng as their aide. But the Zhou family was being difficult. Aside from their family being wealthy enough to rival them, they were only loyal to the first line's descendants of the Xiong family. There was an unbreakable treaty between these two families that was handed down from each generation. The first descendant of the Xiong family would be served by the first descendant of the Zhou family. Aside from that, any family members who were not from the first descendant cannot force the first descendant of the Zhou family to serve them. The same for the Zhou family, they cannot force themselves to serve the first descendant, but they can choose freely their master even from outside the Xiong family. That was the case of Linfeng, who was the only son of his father, the eldest son of his eldest grandfather, making him the first descendant. He had no choice but to serve and be loyal to the first descendant of the Xiong- that was Xiong Zhi. However, Linfeng did not want to resign to his fate. He did not want his descendants to curse him like he cursed his great-grandfather and his descendants for being cowards and becoming dogs to the Xiong. He wanted them to soar freely in the sky, doing what they want, aiming for what they can. But for now, it can wait. He would strengthen himself first. He was planning something, something bigger that even Xiong Zhi herself got a headache in the future. The boy hurriedly chased after him. "Maybe you heard the news, that's why you are in a bad mood? Your girls will be stolen away by that hooligan. I heard he was very talented with extremely good looks. Who knows, maybe you found your rival?" Linfeng still ignored him. "Ah! I also heard that he came here from America to find his future wife. You know, choosing from your girls." The boy continued teasing Linfeng. But Linfeng was not bothered. Treating the boy like he was air. Finally, he stopped his teasing and said in a serious tone. "He was from Guan Group." Linfeng stopped for a moment. Then continued walking again like he had never heard anything. But he couldn't help to furrow his brows. Guan Group. Those two words mean one thing. He was arguing with himself to warn the young miss. In the end, before he reached his room, he decided not to tell about it. It was not his problem, and he promised himself that he would not be her aide forever. So let this problem face her in the future. But the scene of her smiling at him lightly surfaced in his mind. No. It's not my problem. He countered. He was not concerned. He was not bothered. He had nothing to do with it. He tried to console himself by reminding himself this time. ________________________________ Not knowing that the storm that she wanted to avoid was brewing and coming her way, Xiong Zhi entered her room. The room was big and wide. It could hold 200 people. But the students in the room numbered fewer than 20. She sat in the farthest row. Since she attended high school, there's no need to pay attention to it anymore. When she first entered high school, she wondered why his grandfather, who had let her be home-schooled until she was fifteen to suddenly enrolled her in school. Now, after undergoing rebirth, she knew what: that was to meet the beast and capture his attention. She did, but until now, she could not understand how she captured his attention and agreed to marry her. She thought to transfer at first. But now the situation was different. She would make use of every resource that was available to her. Including this school. She looked in front and studied every classmate. There were only 17 at present. She knew they were 18 and the last one committed suicide two months ago. She remembered that news because it lasted for a month before the news cooled down. She saw sons and daughters from the government, lawyers, and businessmen like herself. She was looking for her target. At the corner of the third row, she spotted him. Gu Zhen, the only son of the general of Country C's military. He's currently typing nonstop on his computer. His brown eyes and long lashes were hidden behind the thick glasses, and with his curly black hair. He was not so tall, and his presence was easily forgotten. No one would expect that this weak nerd guy came from a strict military family. However, Xiong Zhi knows that inside this seemingly weak boy is a genius computer programmer and game developer. Because he was the only son of a Gu military family, his father was against his being a computer programmer. So his progress to his chosen profession was slow. It was only when he was twenty that he created SSS and GM, and at that, he was recognized as the youngest prodigy in the field of advanced technology. His two creations became internationally sensational, and even his father could not stop his growth. After three years, he became a billionaire. Xiong Zhi had a list of targets. Before she acted, she wanted to test the water first. Observe and wait.
