Forced to Date a Big Shot

316 - 320

Ch316: Will You Lose?

However, Gao Yanchen did not change his mind even when she was about to set off for the capital and participate in the last meeting of the International Mathematical Olympiad.

Elder Gao had already been discharged and was recuperating at home.

Everyone watched the bustling scene, but in the end, Gao Yanchen could not go to the capital to study and was a little lonely. Gao Yanchen arranged for a car and sent everyone to the capital on the designated date.

Before leaving, Flame Number One urged everyone to climb Bin Mountain, saying that it would be the new year when they came back again.

Everyone thought about it and agreed.

Xue Xi did not mind. It was fine to study less for a day. Moreover, as the activity was for the sake of Little Flame, she would cooperate with everyone because she knew that she did not have much time left with him.

Gao family residence.

Elder Gao was sitting on the sofa and watching television, but his gaze was fixed on Gao Yanchen, who was entering and exiting. Seeing that he was looking for sneakers to wear for their mountain climbing, he said carefully, “Are you going mountain climbing?”

Gao Yanchen shook his head. “No, I’m gonna go swimming.”

Elder Gao: “?”

Gao Yanchen shot him a glance. “Old man, aren’t you asking the obvious? After putting on mountain climbing gear, what else am I going to do except climb a mountain?”

Elder Gao: “…”

During this period of time, Gao Yanchen did not blame him or give up on himself. He seemed to have accepted the fate of staying in Bin City.

Elder Gao felt very guilty. For some unknown reason, when Gao Yanchen was going against him, he did not feel that he was in the wrong. However, now that this grandson of his was being so calm, he kept feeling guilty.

He coughed. “Do you have enough money? If you need anything, just tell me. Or should I buy that mountain?”

Gao Yanchen: “?”

He glared at Elder Gao. “Old man, are you crazy? You’re seriously ill! Why would you buy me a mountain?!”

After saying that, he finished putting on his clothes and walked toward the door.

Just as he was about to leave, Elder Gao suddenly called out to him, “Xiao Chen.”

Gao Yanchen paused and turned around.

Elder Gao hesitated for a moment and said, “It’s nothing.”

Only then did Gao Yanchen leave. The butler saw him off respectfully at the door, and Gao Yanchen only waved his hand. His demeanor was arrogant and suave, just like before.

However, for some unknown reason, Elder Gao felt that he seemed to have grown up overnight. There was no longer any childishness in him, and he seemed more mature and steady.

Staring at his back, Elder Gao finally sighed heavily. He looked at the butler and asked, “Did I do something wrong?”

The butler did not speak.

Elder Gao lowered his head. “Help me contact the Capital University...”

The butler was stunned. “Old Master, what are you...”

Elder Gao leaned on the sofa dispiritedly. “Xiao Chen used to have light in his eyes, but now, although he looks the same as before, I keep feeling that he seems to have lost his soul. Perhaps I’m really wrong. I shouldn’t have broken his wings...”
