Chapter 14: Gu Teng (1)
Gu Teng was now in his third year of high school and he was facing an important turning point in his life.
In order not to offend him or distract him from his studies, the former Gu Jin returned home less frequently for the past year.
Since their parents were both intellectuals, neither parent believed that men were better than women. Seeing that their children weren't getting along, they were beginning to feel helpless over the situation and planned to reprimand Gu Teng, but they were stopped by Gu Jin.
Although the original Gu Jin was confused as to why Gu Teng would feel so offended by her, she was still very fond of her brother, and attributed his actions to the heavy pressure he was going through at school. As his older sister, she never blamed him.
Gu Jin actually visited their home today after being away for so long; it's no wonder that Father Gu was surprised.
”Little Teng, your sister is back.”
Gu Changsheng loudly called out to his son from outside before stepping into the house.
He didn't even finish his words, when suddenly, the sound of 'tap tap tap tap' from quick footsteps rang through the hall.
Gu Jin's eye lit up; a beautiful youth with slightly curled hair flashed past her and sat down on the sofa at the living room.
Even though she was familiar with his appearance from the host's memories, her brother's good looks were enough to surprise her.
Gu Changsheng frowned and scolded the young man with a stern face, ”Gu Teng, you saw that your sister came to visit but you still haven't greeted her.”
”Where is my sister? Why haven't I seen her?” Gu Teng said with an innocent face; he continued to lounge around the sofa while twirling his curly hair with one hand.
”What kind of nonsense are you speaking? Who taught you to be so unruly?” As someone who devoted his life to education, Gu Changsheng could not spend as much time with his son and daughter, but that didn't prevent him from finding time to teach his son about manners.
Gu Teng laughed sarcastically and replied, ”Rules, etiquette, you and mother value them so much and have even brought up an obedient daughter. Do you want to raise me to become a blind follower as well?”
If he had to live that way, it was better if he didn't follow the rules.
Father Gu was furious after hearing his son's retort, but Gu Jin tugged at his sleeve.
