Chapter 384: Chapter 178: I Have Nothing But Respect for Him!_2

Cheng LiHua spoke like he was venting on behalf of Su, articulating his inner thoughts, "Su has this incredible ability to see through appearances to the essence! He spoke very well and rightly about activating potential under the guise of fairness. A university is a fortress for cultivating talents for the country. Things that are good for the students without affecting principles should indeed be handled flexibly. Yaowen has set a great example in this regard, having discovered the talent that is Su. I have to commend you to the principal later!"

Okay, the first part is the heartfelt sentiment, I’m not listening to the last sentence.

Gu Tongshu still disliked Zhang Yaowen, even less did he like Su Huai, but he was willing to admit that the Puppy was a really smart person.

Admiration?

No!

His only thought was: Puppies are not easy to deal with...

Gu Tongshu finally became alert towards Su Huai, treated him earnestly as an opponent, and prepared to fight him with the ferocity of a lion hunting a rabbit.

"Su, what do you think of your major?"

Gu Tongshu’s smile was warm and his attitude friendly, casually chatting with Su through his daughter, showing tremendous care.

As a result, Su Huai was slippery as an eel: "Uncle Gu, we’ve just started our specialized courses, now I don’t have many thoughts, may I have the honor to hear your opinion?"

Why the hell do I bother with this, to lecture you?!

Gu Tongshu held back his irritation and laughed heartily, "Thinking is important, but it can be done slowly, no rush! So, what are your plans for the future?"

Su Huai blinked his eyes, puzzled, and looked back, "Study hard!"

Pfft!

Gu Tongshu spat out blood, while Zhang Yaowen almost died laughing.

Two sentences and you close the loop; you really are a damn talent, kid!

Gu Tongshu’s eye twitched uncontrollably, but he forcefully suppressed his emotions and switched tactics: Praise!

And not just mindless flattery, but mixing praise with probing, continuing to search for Su Huai’s weaknesses, but... as soon as there was any hint of something, the Puppy would turn his head to look at Cheng LiHua!

Grandma, what does Uncle Gu mean?

Otherwise, he’d pull out Zhang Yaowen: Teacher, you’re up!

One moment Gu Tongshu was scolded by his mother-in-law, and the next Zhang Yaowen made snide remarks, he felt utterly tormented.

In front of Su Huai, Gu Tongshu felt a weak sense of powerlessness, having nowhere to exert his influence.

The Puppy only shone briefly, then quickly dimmed his brilliance, focused on eating and said little, completely lacking the typical young male’s desire to show off, so damn hard to deal with!

After many attempts, in the end, Zhang Yaowen forcibly sang him "You’re Not Really Happy, Your Smile Is Just Camouflage You Wear"... so painful.

However, Gu Tongshu was not without gains.

At least he confirmed one thing: Su Huai was not an ordinary kid, his maturity of mind the likes of which he’d never seen a second time in his life.

Among those under 25, in the entire post-90s generation, Su Huai could be called the most extraordinary one.

Wei Dongyi, Cao Yuan, Ke Jie, and other post-90s geniuses had already made a name for themselves, but in fields like math and sports where talent reigns supreme, life experience is not required, youth is a positive asset, so it’s completely understandable.

But what about this Puppy’s impeccable facade?

Has he been playing mind games since he was in the womb?!

Despite knowing his intelligence, none could grasp a handle on him, which was just too unscientific...

Even after dinner, sitting down for tea and a chat, Gu Tongshu still couldn’t find the slightest flaw in Su Huai—no, that description is not accurate, the correct description is that there were few effective conversations.

Lacking any better options, Gu Tongshu stiffly started talking about sports cars with Su Huai.

"Su, which supercar do you like? It’s for you and Yueyue to drive, so what you guys like is the most important. I’m not very versed in this area..."

Mr. Gu was even pushed to start conceding, must be some progress, right?

The response from Su Huai was clueless: "Supercars? We don’t have those where I’m from, I’ve never even seen one..."

Such a simple child!

Cheng LiHua chuckled and followed up, "Good boy, then do you have any favorite brands?"

"No."

Su Huai shyly shook his head, "I’ve only heard a few names, a BMW 911? Son of Wind? Venom? They should all be about the same, right?"

Not a single person present understood, they all turned their heads to look at Gu Tongshu.

Old Gu’s face was green.

Damn you, you sure dare to speak!

But confronted with the gazes of his in-laws and daughter, he couldn’t avoid explaining.

So the formidable Mr. Gu chuckled awkwardly and forced an explanation, "The 911 is Porsche’s entry-level sports car, not quite a supercar, but the last two are pretty good..."

"Ah!"

Su Huai scratched his head in embarrassment, weakly saying, "I didn’t have time to pay attention to those during high school because I was so busy studying... Just see what Gu likes, I’m happy with any electric scooter."

Wang Yuqing was startled and immediately waved her hands, "Entry-level definitely won’t do, my granddaughter should have the best."

Cheng LiHua also nodded anxiously, "Isn’t it true that the better the sports car, the higher the safety, Tongshu?"

She felt Su Huai was a good kid in every aspect, but his constant fixation on two-wheeled meat in a metal wrapper was a bit unbearable. Young people are just too lively...

My son-in-law, please arrange for a nice car soon!

"..."

Gu Tongshu felt like his head was about to explode.

With his wealth, saying he would mind spending anything less than a hundred million was pure nonsense.

The gifts he had given to friends and subordinates in his personal capacity had already exceeded two billion, including houses, cars, cash, various cards, and even women. What hadn’t he given?

But now, having to give such an expensive supercar to this punk who was eyeing his own daughter, it wasn’t just heartache he felt—it was a pain in his liver, spleen, stomach, and lungs.

Yet, faced with Puppy’s glaring threat and his in-laws’ expectations, what could he do?!

I’m in such despair!

Gu Tongshu couldn’t manage a smile, his mouth corners stiff: "Ah right, a good supercar uses a carbon fiber structure to release collision energy, a light crash and the front end shatters, but the passenger compartment is actually safer than a regular car..."

"Oh! That’s great!"

Cheng LiHua slapped her thigh enthusiastically, her granddaughter’s safety was at stake, she really couldn’t bother about her image.

Wang Yuqing made a hasty decision, "Then that settles it, arrange for both the Hurricane and the Venom, Tongshu, and make it happen as soon as possible!"

Gu Tongshu’s face went from green to blue.

Both of those toys were ridiculously expensive, and you want both just like that?!

Of course, he knew very well that his father-in-law didn’t mean to make a lion’s demand, he just wasn’t clear about their real value.

In the elderly’s eyes, how much could a car that’s mentioned alongside BMW possibly be worth?

Gu Tongshu’s heart suddenly jumped, and he quickly turned to look at Su Huai—Could Puppy be doing this on purpose?!

Knowing the name Son of Wind, how could he not know that 911 is a Porsche?

However, when he turned his head to look, Su Huai was anxiously persuading Gu Jiuyue, "Gugu, you just want to go for a ride anyway, any sports car will do, right? I remember those two cars seem quite expensive..."

Gu Jiuyue, holding a peach in both hands, was nibbling away and smilingly shook her head.

She whispered a reply, which Gu Tongshu didn’t catch clearly, but judging from her expression, she disagreed.

Before Gu Tongshu could figure out whether Puppy was being genuine or deceitful, loyal or treacherous, Zhang Yaowen started to up the stakes, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

"Expensive? Su, you’re really underestimating your Uncle Gu. In his eyes, even the best yachts and private jets don’t deserve the term ’expensive,’ it’s all about whether he’s willing to spend or not!"

What a calamity!

It seems I can’t avoid bleeding money this time...

Actually, Gu Tongshu wasn’t afraid of Zhang Yaowen setting him up. If it were a direct battle, he could rub Zhang Yaowen’s face in the mud, but once his in-laws and daughter are involved, he would have to stand firm, straight as an arrow.

"No worries, Mom and Dad, those two cars are just a bit tricky to get hold of, they’re not that expensive... Give me some time, it’s a small matter."

Gu Tongshu forced a calm demeanor, as the loss was a sure thing, at least he had to maintain some pride, right?

Zhang Yaowen was happy, laughing heartily, giving a thumbs-up to praise him: "Mr. Gu, it’s really got to be you, so classy!"

Happy to dig into his money, men just rejoice!

Cheng LiHua also felt relieved, a top-grade supercar was safe enough, now all she needed to do was warn the two kids not to speed, anything else didn’t matter.

Wang Yuqing was very satisfied: I still have some standing at home, huh! Ever since Su showed up, Gu has been so obedient, not bad at all!

Su Huai’s mouth twitched wildly, he almost couldn’t help but laugh.

Family, does anyone realize how golden Mr. Gu’s value is?

He could actually get those two toys?

But I just casually mentioned it...

Everyone in their joyful world had achieved consensus, only Gu Tongshu was getting restless, as if his seat was filled with needles, eager to leave, to leave, and still wanting to leave.

In the end, Gu Jiuyue asked Su Huai with a smile, "Are you satisfied now?"

Gou Huai chuckled, not pretending to be foolish or dumb anymore.

Because her previous whisper was...

"Stop acting. I know you like those two cars. I can help you trick Old Gu, but you’re not allowed to be mad at him anymore, okay?"

Su Huai didn’t respond at the time, but now he had a good idea what to say.

Absurd!

When have I ever been mad at Dad?

Towards him, I only have respect!
