Chapter 36 Tomb Sweeping (5)

Gu Yan didn't come alone. There were also several men and women around his age. There were roughly seven or eight people.

Those faces Yan Suizhi were not unfamiliar with, even very familiar, they were all his former students. Three of them followed Gu Yan directly, and the others were taken by Yan Suizhi for half a year because of some course research.

He didn't have much time to learn about the private affairs of the students, but in his impression, this group of people should have a good personal relationship.

Yan Suizhi knew this because several of the activists would occasionally mention that they were partying and put up some photos. In most of the party photos, there is Gu Yan's figure.

Classmate Gu is always a unique scene in the noisy atmosphere, either sitting by the side with a wine glass and watching the dance of the demons, or looking down and listening to the chatter of the people next to him.

Such an inactive club has been dragged by them again and again, which shows that the relationship is very good.

Most of this group of people have kept in touch with Yan Suizhi after graduation, both in work and in life, and they always send him some greetings during New Years and festivals.

With only two exceptions.

One of them is Ke Jin, born in an orphanage, very hardworking, and a person who is extremely serious about life. Because of his outstanding performance in each course, Yan Suizhi was very happy to grant him various scholarships and grants when he was the dean, and occasionally gave him some academic and work reminders.

Ke Jin was very grateful and respected Yan Suizhi, so he kept in touch at first. Later, due to some accidents, he had a serious illness, and his mental state had problems again, so he stopped.

The other is Gu Yan.

Unexpectedly, after a few years, Gu Yan has become the one with the closest connection with him.

The distance was not too close, so Yan Suizhi couldn't see the expression on Gu Yan's face, but for some reason, he felt that the other party seemed to think more of a ghost than him.

After a while, the group came closer.

"It's not a classmate, it looks like a fresh graduate." The young blond woman at the beginning glanced at Locke and them in surprise, and stayed for two more seconds when her eyes fell on Yan Suizhi's face.

However, she quickly realized that it was not appropriate to stare at people like this, so she smiled at Yan Suizhi and said, "You... are also here to see the professor?"

The lady who spoke was named Laura Stephen. She was a very lively girl back then. The last time Yan Sui saw her was a lawsuit two years ago. She was much more mature than when she was in school, but she still loved to laugh. .

But today at the cemetery, her smile was shallow and fleeting, and it was obvious that it was just to express friendliness and kindness.

When she finished speaking, Gu Yan just walked up the last step. He stood aside, his eyes first fell on the tombstone, then on Yan Suizhi's face, and finally on his hand.

Yan Suizhi followed his gaze and looked down, only to realize that the two fools of Locke found that his hand was empty, and stuffed him with a resting flower.

Yan Suizhi: "..."

"Why did you give me another one?" Yan Suizhi tilted his head and asked Locke in a low voice.

Locke was very afraid of Gu Yan, so he didn't dare to speak. In order to avoid being swept away by Gu Yan's peripheral vision, he even quietly took a small step back.

Yan Suizhi: "..." This is cowardly.

He raised his head and stared at Gu Yan with big eyes. don't know why, but Gu Yan's face looked very, very... indescribable.

"..."

The scene was very embarrassing.

Professor Yan Da silently twisted the flower branch with his fingers, and then tried to stick it on the tombstone next door.

Before the two of them spoke, the inexplicable atmosphere was already obvious. Everyone else noticed something strange, and looked at him and then Gu Yan with a questioning expression on their faces.

Gu Yan stared at Yan Suizhi for two seconds, then glanced at the smartphone with his fingers, showing the time: "At this point in time, it seems that you should be looking at the file in the office."

Yan Suizhi said angrily, "Yeah, I think so too, but obviously there was an accident."

When he was talking, Locke desperately stabbed his back with his fingers through the cover, as if to remind him not to talk to the teacher so bluntly. But the force was about to poke a hole in Yan Suizhi's coat.

Anna and the others also looked at him with wide eyes, as if asking, "Do you want to stop doing it?"

"Gu, do you know him?" Everyone who was with Gu Yan was taken aback and asked one after another.

Gu Yan said indifferently: "This is a new interns."

This time it was the people's turn to go to hell.

"Interns? You accept them?!" Obviously, Gu Yan's friends all know what kind of virtue he is, "You actually accept an intern? Is it true?"

Those people's eyes were all focused on Yan Suizhi in an instant, and some of them could not wait to pull out their eyeballs and stick them on Yan Suizhi for research.

"Our school?"

"Extraordinary?"

"What amazing thing has been done?"

"Hey, it looks a bit like—"

Gu Yan promptly stifled the curiosity of this group of friends at the budding stage: "Don't do research, it's nothing special, it was originally assigned to another lawyer, but he couldn't pick it up in the event of an accident, so let me manage it for the time being."

This reason was extremely bland, and it sounded much more acceptable than "Gu Yan took the initiative to accept interns".

His group of friends seemed to regret that they didn't hear any shocking answers, and they lost interest after an "oh".

Only one person never spoke during this process.

He walked at the back, his face was pale and slightly morbid, his eyes were very light, and his eyes seemed a little scattered wherever he landed, like another world outside the crowd.

Even so, he can still see a bit of handsomeness from his face. If he is in good spirits, he must be a young and promising young man.

In front of him, two classmates kept looking down at his footsteps, for fear that he would step on the wrong steps in a trance.

This is Ke Jin.

From what Yan Suizhi knew, this was probably the time when Ke Jin's mental state was better.

"So you're all Southern Cross trainees?" Laura asked again.

"Yes." Phyllida nodded and replied, "The preliminary assessment is going to be held recently, to make a real analogy, you need to come here to find a gentleman to understand the situation of the case."

After saying this, a strange face in the crowd suddenly raised his hand and said, "Oh, you were arranged by Hobbes? Are you the one who just called me?"

Locke stuck his head out: "Mr. Zeng? I'm Locke, Mr. Hobbs' intern. So the guest you just said you want to accompany is..."

"Yes, that's right, it's us." Laura said, "Professor used to hold a birthday party every winter, and this year is almost the same time. While a sick friend is in good condition, let's come and see the professor."

"Birthday?" Locke glanced at the date of birth on the tombstone, "Uh...Isn't there a month left?"

Gu Yan's friends looked at the tombstone after hearing the words, and said after a moment of silence, "Yeah."

In the past, Yan Suizhi had given him too many gifts in order to avoid students or other people giving him too much as a birthday present. So I never explicitly mentioned my birthday to my students.

He did hold several small wine clubs within a few teachers and students, but each time he picked up a month before his birthday, not a real birthday.

So even his direct students did not know the specific date.

In this way, whenever someone is preparing to give him a birthday gift, he can say "not to come" to decline.

Maybe these students did not expect that for the first time, the exact birthday time of the professor was actually from the tombstone.

"But we are used to this time at the end of November or early December. I believe the professor is also happy to come earlier." Laura smiled.

Locke nodded and hurriedly let go.

Laura went to the tombstone, and everyone was holding a small white restaurant in their hands, and the atmosphere became more and more sad. Yan Suizhi's face became more and more paralyzed.

He walked silently, and felt that it was better to see it. There is an illusion that the mourning words have more loess buried to the face.

At this moment, Laura whispered: "Gu, do you really don't take flowers? Several branches, it's better than empty hand."

Yan Suizhi turned to look at it, and then found that Gu Yan was empty in both hands, and he didn't take a flower.

"No need." Gu Yan's face was paralyzed than him. He was a capital "reluctant", and it seemed that even the grave sweeping was tuned by friends, and he was not so happy.

Professor Yan Da held his arms and leaned on a cedar, watching Gu Yan's rejection of Laura twice, saying that this Gu classmate, because I was still a direct professor, you did n’t even give me a flower. I look at it all.

Perhaps his eyes were too strong. When Gu Yanzheng planned to refuse Laura's flowers for the third time, he suddenly looked up at Yan Suizhi, facing his sight, and then refused to refuse His hands paused.

For a moment, Mr. Gu seemed to be making a life and death choice.

It seems that Laura's hands are not a few white and pure peace flowers, but explosives.

Yan Suizhi silently waited for him to choose to decide whether to remember the student.

Just when Lawyer Gu Da thought about life, someone suddenly shouted: "What happened to you?"

Yan Sui watched the sound, and as a result, he saw the rest of the peace hugged by Ke Jin. He squatted on the ground. Holding the tombstone, shrinking there and kept whispering: "I am not, I don’t, I don’t, I don’t ..."
