Chapter 261: Chapter 261

Mrs. Li listened from the side, breaking out in a nervous sweat—her husband was usually so composed in public; she never imagined he would fawn so shamelessly before the President.

Director Li, however, didn’t see it that way. Before the respected President, he felt like an inexperienced junior staff member, excitedly holding the Jade Ruyi and praising it profusely.

Gu Anxi looked at the Jade Ruyi, remembering how her Little Uncle had forced her to admire it. She couldn’t even bring herself to smile. "Director Li... um, you can put that down now."

Little Li carefully and respectfully put it down, still gushing, "Only the Bo Family is worthy of such a treasure!"

At this point, he got to his main purpose. "I’ve also brought a small item. I hope the President will like it."

Gu Anxi pressed her forehead. "Director Li, you’re too kind."

Director Li took out a box and opened it. "This is a thousand-year-old ginseng, perfect for boosting vitality and refreshing the spirit. I heard from my Wang Qin that the President often studies late into the night. Just cut a few slices; two a day will immediately invigorate you."

Gu Anxi couldn’t listen anymore. Wang Qin is silly, and this godfather of hers is just as silly. But she couldn’t very well say that out loud.

Director Li respectfully placed the old ginseng on the coffee table, expressing his utmost concern. "President, you must take care of your health. My wife and I will visit Wang Qin when we have time. If you need anything then, President, please don’t hesitate to ask."

Gu Anxi didn’t have a bad impression of Little Li. Although he was a bit sycophantic and opportunistic, he and his wife were genuinely good to Wang Qin. So she smiled. "Alright, then please make preparations for Wang Qin. Chu Yan will also be returning to Beicheng University then."

Director Li looked ecstatic again. Chu Yan! That’s a direct descendant of the Chu Family! My Wang Qin is truly a treasure, knowing so many prominent figures!

After finally seeing Director and Mrs. Li off, Gu Anxi picked up the old ginseng, glanced at it, coughed lightly... and paid it no further mind.

When Bo Xichen finished his experiment and came out after a shower, he noticed the old ginseng on the coffee table. "Who came by?"

Gu Anxi, engrossed in a variety show, didn’t look away. "Director Li. He came about Wang Qin’s affairs. Said Wang Qin wants to go to Beicheng too."

Bo Xichen chuckled. "He came for his own interests, didn’t he?"

With that, he picked up the old ginseng. "The quality is indeed excellent. A thoughtful gift. Is this for me?"

Gu Anxi’s face flushed. "It’s for me, okay!"

"Perhaps." Bo Xichen smiled. "My dear wife has been working hard lately."

Gu Anxi was momentarily speechless. Dıscover more novels at 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵

After a moment, she grumbled under her breath, "What hard work are you even talking about!"

"If it wasn’t hard work," his eyes twinkled with amusement, "does that mean I can be a bit more... excessive?"

Gu Anxi chewed her popcorn, thinking to herself, He’s so busy every day with endless documents to read and experiments to conduct. Where does he get all this energy?

Ultimately, Bo Xichen ground the old ginseng into powder. Every morning, he added a small spoonful to Gu Anxi’s soy milk. She never found out, assuming Bo Xichen had consumed the ginseng himself—because her Little Uncle seemed to have even more energy than before!

Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, their departure for Beicheng University was only two days away.

Principal Wang couldn’t bear to see her go!

The department head couldn’t bear to see her go!

Professor Gao, especially, couldn’t bear to see her go!

Professor Gao was particularly touched because Gu Anxi had indeed painted another picture specifically for him.

It was an astonishing masterpiece!

Professor Gao didn’t dare keep it for himself and d it to Qing University.

Displaying such a painting, worth tens of millions, naturally posed a security risk. Therefore, Qing University cordoned it off and installed a security system. Gu Anxi was rather speechless. It’s just a painting, isn’t it?

Still, as long as Principal Wang and the others were happy, that was all that mattered.

The students of Qing University also couldn’t bear for her to leave!

Their student council president was leaving to be an exchange student at Beicheng University. Who knew what kind of riffraff they’d get in return!

It truly felt like a phoenix had flown away, only to be replaced by a common sparrow.

Gu Anxi assured them she would return. Only then did Principal Wang, with a heavy heart, stamp his approval and let her go.

She headed to Classroom 2 of the Art Department. Since Chu Yan had already returned to Beicheng, Wang Qin was now her deskmate.

Wang Qin felt exceptionally happy. She was still with Anxi, and her classmates were incredibly envious of her.

What’s more, she’d heard that ’Miss Bunny Who Doesn’t Wear Thermal Pants’—that is, Master Bunny—was also going to Beicheng, which made her even happier! Maybe in Beicheng, I can even meet Master Bunny and get a personalized autograph!

Hearing this, Gu Anxi frowned. "A personalized autograph? You want one that badly?"

Wang Qin nodded. "Of course, I do! All the fans want one! Especially ’Da Hui’s Little Fairy.’ Anxi, you have no idea, she’s totally obsessed with Da Hui. She calls him ’hubby’ every day!"

Gu Anxi smiled. "Who knows, maybe one day Master Bunny will give you all personalized autographs!"

Wang Qin’s eyes immediately lit up. After a moment, she asked, "Anxi, don’t you follow any series?"

Gu Anxi replied, "I follow a few."

Wang Qin said, "You’re not fanatical at all."

Then, her eyes sparkling again, she continued, "Da Hui’s manga has over five million favorites—it’s a massive hit! Master Bunny’s Weibo followers are nearing seven million, and it’s only been a month! Da Hui is constantly trending too. You have no idea how many people are obsessed with Da Hui; I’ve heard even many celebrities are fans!"

Gu Anxi just ’oh’-ed.

Wang Qin continued, "Anxi, my godfather told me you study day and night. You shouldn’t push yourself so hard! Look, following manga is so much fun, you know!"

A thought suddenly struck Gu Anxi. "They really are good to you."

Her personality has become much more cheerful.

Wang Qin blushed. "Yes, they’re very good. When I go to Beicheng, they’re even having my grandmother move there to live with them. Grandma isn’t used to city life, so they’ve hired a helper to look after her."

Gu Anxi was happy for her too. Propping her chin on her hand, she opened the admin panel for her work and sent a private message to ’Da Hui’s Little Fairy’: [Heard you wanted a personalized autograph~~]

’Da Hui’s Little Fairy’ was a major patron, having already generously tipped over two million RMB. She definitely deserved a personalized autograph.

’Da Hui’s Little Fairy’ replied in seconds:

[Sparkling eyes~ Is it really you, Master Bunny?]

[Master Bunny, can I request a special... furless photo of Da Hui? ~~covers face, blushing~~ But please leave the fur on his tail!~~]

Gu Anxi’s eyes nearly popped out of her head.

What on earth is a ’furless photo’? If a wolf has no fur, is it still a wolf?

And keeping the fur on the tail? What kind of peculiar taste is that?

Just as Gu Anxi was hesitating, her phone PINGED with a notification. She opened it.

’Da Hui’s Little Fairy’ had tipped another one million RMB—

A site-wide announcement flashed across the screen.

Looks like I have to provide a picture of a furless Da Hui now.

That evening, Gu Anxi spent a long time poring over something.

Bo Xichen patted her head. "What are you looking at so intently?"

Gu Anxi coughed lightly. "Um, I’m studying anatomy... Little Uncle, you truly are amazing. Every part of you is a treasure."
