Chapter 401 The Familiar Stranger

Gu Nianzhi glanced at He Zhichu silently, feeling a slight fluctuation in his heart.

She is not a person who doesn't know what to do. Although He Zhichu has a bad temper, he treats her pretty well and helps her protect her in many places.

Gu Nianzhi blinked, "Professor He, I can't bear it. Wouldn't I make up for it all today?"

He Zhichu's twinkling peach blossom eyes were bent, and his clear and indifferent face was suddenly handsome.

"Gui Suyao is a relative of Prime Minister Dou, so we can't let her go for the time being..." Before He Zhichu could finish his sentence, Gu Nianzhi's eyes darkened and he interrupted He Zhichu, "Professor He, I understand, and I won’t make it difficult for you. Today, you have told Senior Sister Gui, that’s enough, don’t be too strict, it will make Senior Sister Gui look bad, and Prime Minister Dou will not be honored.”

She thought why at the beginning she was trying to persuade her to calm down, after all, Gui Suyao's thighs were too thick...

Prime Minister Dou, that is the head of administration of one of the three giants of the empire, even Huo Shaoheng had to salute him when he saw him.

He Zhichu's face was slightly sullen, and he said displeasedly: "You think I'm asking you to back down?"

Gu Nianzhi's big eyes blinked and blinked, and his long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, "Isn't it?"

"In your eyes, this is the kind of person I am?" He Zhichu put his hands in the pockets of his suit trousers, his figure was as tall and straight as a green pine, with an aura that would rather bend than bend.

"Professor He, you have always been a good professor in my eyes, and you have just come to China Empire to open a law firm, and it is difficult to do business with Prime Minister Dou." Gu Nianzhi turned his head and took a step forward, and was about to walk out of the conference room the door.

He Zhichu stretched out a hand, grabbed Gu Nianzhi's arm, and then let her go quickly.

His palm was hot, and the place where he held Gu Nianzhi's arm was like a soldering iron.

Gu Nianzhi rubbed his arm, stopped, and looked up at He Zhichu, "Professor He, is there anything else?"

The tone is polite and rusty, like two strangers.

He Zhichu took a deep breath, as if he was worried that if he didn't speak now, he would never speak out, and said quickly, "Nianzhi, I don't know if anyone has taught you that you can't talk about people or things. It's too absolute. The consequence of driving a dog into a poor alley is that you don't know when it will bite you back. Just like Gui Suyao, if I really drive her away completely this time, she will definitely vent her grievances on you. "

Gu Nianzhi looked at He Zhichu blankly, feeling even more strange in his heart.

He actually really thought about her, and he was very thoughtful...

"...Gui Suyao's family background is mediocre, but she has an uncle who is the prime minister, which is very unusual. Of course I don't have to be afraid of him, but what about you? You have Huo Shaoheng, but Huo Shaoheng is so busy, he will be there all the time Are you always by your side? With the ability of Prime Minister Dou and the feud between him and Huo Shaoheng, if he really takes the opportunity to retaliate against you, you will be completely defenseless.——You are willing to hide behind Huo Shaoheng for the rest of your life and never come out to see him person?"

Gu Nianzhi looked at him thoughtfully and began to think seriously.

She really didn't want to hide behind Huo Shaoheng for the rest of her life and never see the light of day.

Huo Shaoheng probably didn't need such a woman who dared not even show her face to be his wife.

What He Zhichu said, if you think about it carefully, does make sense.

If Gui Suyao is really pushed to a dead end, no one can predict what she will do.

Gu Nianzhi also agreed with He Zhichu's statement. If He Zhichu really drove Gui Suyao away, Gui Suyao would not hate him, but she would hate Gu Nianzhi deeply.

Because most people are like this, when faced with people who are much stronger than themselves, they will subdue and give in unconsciously, and will only vent their grievances on those who are weaker than themselves.

In the eyes of Gui Suyao and Miao Yunxiao, Gu Nianzhi belongs to the "weaker" people who "can bully at will and are not afraid to pay the price".

Of course, they misjudged themselves and Gu Nianzhi.

Gu Nianzhi also didn't want to be on guard against others to set her up all day long, having Miao Yunxiao already gave her a headache, but she could only turn a blind eye to Miao Yunxiao,

Just ignore her, you can't cut her down with a knife, right?

The Chinese Empire is a society governed by the rule of law, and she also studied law, so she cannot be lawless.

Gu Nianzhi nodded regretfully, "I understand. I should be grateful for Professor He's painstaking efforts, but I just can't get over this hurdle in my heart. You said, why do I have to think about fighting back when they treat me like this? Is it really easier to be a bad person? Only good people think about the cost?"

He Zhichu couldn't help but curl his lips slightly, a smile flickered from his cold face, "I know how you feel, and I've made plans for you."

"Ah? Planning for me?" Gu Nianzhi was suspicious, "Then let me see Gui Suyao every day to be disturbed?"

He didn't want to say it at first, but Gu Nianzhi was too sensitive in front of him, there were already so many misunderstandings before, and if he didn't explain it, the misunderstandings would only increase.

He Zhichu made a decision in a split second, coughed twice, with his hands still in his trouser pockets, and said flatly, "Have you ever seen a blindfolded donkey with a carrot hanging in front of its head?"

"I haven't seen the real thing, but I've read the comics." Gu Nianzhi said honestly.

The smile on He Zhichu's face gradually widened. He stared at Gu Nianzhi, as if he wanted to see the little girl who had been running around with him since he was six years old from her delicate little face like a beautiful girl in comics.

"The donkey smells carrots in front of it, so it will pull the cart steadily forward. In the same way, for people like Gui Suyao and Prime Minister Dou, you have to let them see that hope is not far away, but you There is no need to let them know that that hope is actually a mirage for them, out of reach.”

Gu Nianzhi suddenly understood that He Zhichu wanted to hang Gui Suyao with his PhD studentship, so that she didn't want to give up, and she couldn't give up.

As long as Gui Suyao doesn't give up on this goal for a day, she will treat Gu Nianzhi well, because this will be the prerequisite for He Zhichu to let her stay.

"...The more things she wants, the more worries she has, and the less likely she is to take risks." He Zhichu stretched out his hand, trying to tuck Gu Nianzhi's lock of hair behind his ear, but Gu Nianzhi Reflexively took a step back, he had no choice but to withdraw his hand, and continued: "At the same time, let Prime Minister Dou be cautious, and hope that he will not tear himself apart with us."

"Professor He, you don't need to explain to me." Gu Nianzhi murmured, "You are a professor and I am a student. No matter what you decide, I agree."

He Zhichu withdrew his smile, "Don't worry, I won't let her embarrass you again. How about it, you and them will stagger the class time in the future. You are a master's student and they are doctoral students. It's not good to have classes together after all." .”

"Ah?" Gu Nianzhi raised his head again and looked at He Zhichu suspiciously, "Do you want to have separate classes? But I only have one person..."

Should she be treated so well?

Why did such a famous law professor only teach her alone? !

This is the rhythm of a private teacher, I'm going to get drunk just thinking about it...

"Don't be too happy." He Zhichu resumed his usual clear and cold tone, "My teaching assistant has gone back to his hometown and will never come back again. I need a teaching assistant. In a few days, I will make a list in the department Recruit teaching assistants, if you want, you can also come to apply.”

Gu Nianzhi's big eyes widened in an instant, "Can I be a teaching assistant?! Can students be too?!"

"Of course. Don't you remember the brothers and sisters you met when you were at Harvard in the United States? Master and doctoral students in the United States all work as teaching assistants for their supervisors, and many of them even teach undergraduates." He Zhichu's voice suddenly changed It must be kind and sweet, with a persuasive look, "Besides, being my assistant church has a monthly salary from the school and a subsidy from my professor's funds. The sum of seven, seven, eight or eight a month is at least 20,000."

Gu Nianzhi swallowed.

Such a good thing, do you want to fight for it? So tangled...

"It's just that there will be a lot of applicants. You can sign up if you want, and forget it if you don't." After He Zhichu finished speaking, he turned around and left, leaving a sentence: "When you go out, close the door for me. I have sent your essay comments to your email, and you can revise them according to the comments."

Just turned around and left without even looking back.

He Zhichu's attitude of avoiding suspicion made Gu Nianzhi raise his heart a little bit.

Restless, she left the professor building where He Zhichu was with her backpack on her back, and went back to her dormitory.

He Zhichu did what he said, and early the next morning, a piece of news spread throughout the Law Department of University B.

Because Professor He Zhichu, who is very popular in University B, is openly recruiting teaching assistants in the law department!
