Chapter 4| Gold medal Broker

Xu Zhaixing who was fiercely looking for Zhou Mingyu,finally found someone in the third grade building.
  
  After many years of not seeing him,the image of her first love that had already became fuzzy in her memory,finally matched with this hooligan youngster in front of her.
  
  Was her eyesight back then this bad ?!This most handsome looking kind of narcissistic mad mental case in the whole world is not her ideal type at all!
  
  Seeing that he was about to arrogantly kick the classroom door,Xu Zhaixing shouted at him:"Zhou Mingyu,what are you going to do!"
  
   Zhou Mingyu saw her coming,and his whole face distorted in anger:"Ah,Xu Zhaixing you're so good. You hide so quickly when I'm looking for you,but appear as soon as I look for that dog called Cen Feng?"
  
  Xu Zhaixing was nearly mad:"Who are you cursing a dog?!Who are you cursing?!I'm gonna kill you!"
  
  The closely following Cheng You who came up after running:"............"
  
  The morning self-study bell rang in time. Cheng You dragged down Xu Zhaixing who was asking for a fight with Zhou Mingyu to leave. "Let's go to class, go to class. We won't lower ourselves to his level!"
  
  Xu Zhaixing took a deep breath and calmed down.
  
  How childish of someone in her twenties,to argue with such a teenage brat!Sure enough, Cen Feng is her Achilles' heel. Forget about it,she doesn't feel like taking care of him.
  
  She glare at Zhou Mingyu:"High school students should focus on studying. Don't make so much nonsense all day. Mess around again and I'll tell on you to the teacher in charge!"
  
  Zhou Mingyu:"???"
  
  Back to the classroom,Xu Zhaixing continued herself to memorize the classical Chinese texts. Cheng You blocked her face with a book, and looked at this seatmate of hers in amazement.

  In the end, what was the origin of that person named Cen Feng. He actually made this girl on the same table with her,who had never liked quarreling,to almost got into a fight with others ?If she got a chance, she must let Zhaixing take her to meet him!
  
  After the scene in the morning,Zhou Mingyu didn't come to see her again in the next few days. The young boy was most likely ashamed of losing face and was perhaps, just passing time to chase other girls for a while.
  
  Xu Zhaixing resolved her former ill-fated relationship and then devoted all her energy to organize information first. Because just in another day,is exactly the time for her big plan to be implemented.
  
  That night,Xu Zhaixing was still in the room writing English papers. Mother Xu answered the phone call,came upstairs with a sad expression, and told her:"Zhaixing,your uncle is gone."
  
  The eldest uncle in the Xu family,father Xu' big brother who had been in the hospital for chemotherapy more than half a year due to advanced lung cancer, died of illness just tonight. Xu Zhaixing remembered going to her eldest uncle's funeral that year,and saw the man inside the coffin was left with only a handful of skin and bones. At that time,the relatives of the Xu family said that leaving was a relief,for he had suffered too much.
  
  Xu Zhaixing was powerless about this matter. Even if she was mentally prepared,she couldn't help but feel sad when she heard about it from her mother.
  
  Mother Xu sighed:"Your dad caught a flight to come back tonight. Tomorrow morning,we'll return in our hometown. In a while,I'll ask your teacher for a vacation."
  
  Xu Zhaixing nodded.
  
  Mother Xu turned around with a sigh:"When you were a child,you're uncle was very good to you. He always bought sweets for you."
  
  Xu Zhaixing originally wanted to finish writing the remaining English papers,but her mind was in a complete mess. On one hand she feels sad about the death of her eldest uncle. And on the other hand,she's thinking of taking advantage of this situation to implement a big plan. After several attempts,she still couldn't focus on the test questions. Finally,she gave up and put away the papers to take out her very own life plan.
  
  Turning to the third page,written on the top was a single name:Xu Yan.
  
  Xu Yan,the eldest uncle's son,will later become a very famous broker in the entertainment circle who can make anyone to be a popular star.
  
  The Xu family's eldest brother divorced his wife very early,and the five year old Xu Yan was decided to go with his mother. He followed his mother abroad. This way,for so many years,he had never get in touch with the Xu family.
  
  Xu Zhaixing only knew that most of the expenses for eldest uncle's chemotherapy had been paid by Xu Yan,but he had never came back from abroad. In her previous life,Xu Yan returned to China after eldest uncle passed away to attend the funeral.
  
  But then at the funeral,the relatives on the Xu family's side were very unpleasant. After divorcing,eldest uncle remarried twice and finally divorced. Except for Xu Yan,he did not have another son and a half daughter. Now that person is gone,leaving behind a plot of land together with two houses in his hometown.
  
  Back then Xu Zhaixing was still young,and she liked to play and was naive. She simply could not understand the disputes between adults. She followed a few small cousins ​​in the countryside uphill to climb trees, and pick flowers and fruits,completely unaware of what had happened.
  
  Thinking about it now,that squabble must be exactly about the inheritance.
  
  After the funeral,Xu Zhaixing had never seen Xu Yan again. Their previous contacts had initially been few,and now it was even more less. It was until mother Xu passed away and father Xu was paralyzed,and that Xu Zhaixing had carried a heavy burden to move forward,when she received two phone calls from Xu Yan.
  
  He didn't said anything. He just asked for her bank card number,and wanted to give her some money.
  
  At that time,Xu Zhaixing had just severed contacts with the relatives of the Xu family. She hated this group of hypocritical and cold-blooded relatives,and refused to be involve with Xu Yan.
  
  Xu Yan never called again. But later,Xu Zhaixing's bank card still had two more international remittances. She jotted down the numbers,wrote an IOU,and vowed to return it to the other party in the future.
  
  It wasn't until she started chasing Cen Feng and got to know the scenes behind the entertainment circle,that she became aware of how great an existence this cousin was in the industry.
  
  She was grateful for his kindness back then,and continuously watched over in silence. When she came across any disturbances appearing with the artists under her older cousin,she would repay by helping to bring rhythm and control in the comments.
  
   It was the only thing she could do for her older cousin at that time.
  
  Not long ago,she saw in the marketing news that Xu Yan had the idea of ​​becoming independent to make his own brokerage company. But she still didn't know what had happened afterwards because she got reborn.
  
  At this point of time ,Xu Yan is the most important in the first step of her plan.
  
  Although she already had it planned,she had never been in contact with Xu Yan in both lives. When the time comes,whether or not it would go without a hitch is still unknown.
  
  Xu Zhaixing,who went to bed and slept with frustration in her heart,was called to get up the next day by mother Xu first thing in the morning to sort out her greetings and homework,and then they flew back to their hometown.
  
  Xu family's hometown is a small city with an enchanting scenery in the South . Although the development was not that great,the ambient air was good. When she was young and her grandparents were still alive,her parents would bring her back every winter and summer vacation.
  
  After many years of estrangement,this small town still remains the same. The cremation in their hometown has not yet been carried out,and the funeral next was was also a burial process. When Xu Zhaixing's family arrived,the eldest uncle's remains had already been sent back from the provincial hospital. The mourning hall was located outside his self-study room in the second floor.
  
  Almost all of the relatives of the Xu familiy had arrived. As soon as father Xu came in,many relatives gathered around and asked them about their well-being. If it weren't for the things that happened later,both father and daughter wouldn't have known that family affection could turn into that degree of indifference.
  
  Funeral matters are complicated. Eldest uncle had no wife nor children,and the decision making fell on the two younger brothers and the two younger sisters. Father Xu and mother Xu put down their luggage and busied themselves. Xu Zhaixing tidied up the luggage well in the arranged room,and then went again in front of the mourning hall to kowtow and burn incense for her eldest uncle.
  
  According to her memory,Xu Yan should have arrived already at this time,but she didn't see the man after looking around.
  
  After sneaking around,she still couldn't find Xu Yan. But instead she ran into her prodigal second older cousin, Xu Chaoyang, who was Xu Zhiwen's son.
  
  Xu Chaoyang was a freshman at college in B city,where he actually used money to advanced. The younger generation of the Xu family were still young. Apart from Xu Yan,the oldest was Xu Zhaixing who was also a freshman at this time. Xu Chaoyang was the second college student in the Xu family,following after his father.
  
  In families where it was common to not study,awesome praises were of no good.
  
  At this moment,Xu Chaoyang was holding a cigarette and leaning on the haystack,feeling a sense of superiority among his relatives in the countryside. Several young cousins ​​looked envious as they listened to his description at how good and prosperous he was in city B.
  
  Xu Zhaixing turned around and wanted to leave. A young female cousin saw her and shouted happily:"Older sister Zhaixing,you also came back."
  
  Their parents' actions were not these children's fault. Although Xu Zhaixing hated the Xu family relatives, she didn't have much malice towards these children. She turned around and smiled:"En."
  
  She glanced at Xu Chaoyang,took out a few pieces of chocolate Xu father brought back from City B last night from her pocket,and waved to her younger cousins:"Come,I brought chocolates for you."
  
  Several children ran over happily.
  
  Xu Chaoyang was somewhat restrained in front of Xu Zhaixing. His father probably made him to come and greet with a smile:"Zhaixing, I heard my dad said that you were admitted to a key high school?Very capable! Study hard and strive to get to City B. When the time comes,elder brother will cover you."
  
  Xu Zhaixing didn't even lift her eyelids,and asked her young female cousin:"Is it delicious?"
  
  Xu Chaoyang was a little embarrassed and did not speak to her anymore. He turned to chat with several relatives with his age.
  
  One of them said:"Your eldest uncle's son came back. Have you seen him?I heard that he grew up in abroad,and your eldest uncle's medical expenses were all paid by him. He's truly rich."
  
  When talking about Xu Yan,everyone has an envious tone.
  
  After all,for them who grew up in cities and towns,living abroad is something they dare not even think about.
  
  Xu Chaoyang spit out a smoke ring and sneered:"What kind of ability does he have to earn money?It's all thanks to his mother who married a foreigner. To use his stepfathers money to treat his own father,he he. I don't know about it,but if stepfather knew of this would he still want both him and his mother."
  
  Another one said:"Xu Yan also works you know. Though I don't know where does he work and how much his salary is."
  
  Xu Chaoyang didn't like them using that tone of admiration when mentioning Xu Yan. Throwing his cigarette butt away:"What good job can he find with the media major he studied?No one wants to go in the state-owned enterprise to clean the toilet."
  
  Everyone around laughed.
  
  After Xu Zhaixing finished dividing the chocolate,she clapped her hands ,and said loudly:"Older cousin Chaoyang,don't just talk about older brother Xu Yan. Talk also about yourself. What major are you studying?"
  
  Xu Chaoyang was taken aback,and subconsciously said:"I study finance."
  
  Xu Zhaixing looked surprised,her tone was a bit raised:"What?It's actually finance?I thought you were studying with major in gossiping. "
  
  She looked at him regretfully:"I still think you learned really well,exactly the same as those aunts' group of making insoles in our community park!"
  
  Xu Chaoyang just now realized that this girl was mocking him:"You......"
  
  Xu Zhaixing behaved naturally with a smile and interrupted him,"So it was actually self-taught."
  
  Xu Chaoyang was fuming with anger for being seen as a joke by the relatives around him. He couldn't care about his father's words anymore. He immediately stepped forward,wanting to clean up this stinky girl with a sharp tooth pointed mouth.
  
  The young female cousin at the back who ate chocolates,suddenly screamed while pointing behind him:"It's on fire!!!"
  
  Everyone's attention was all directed on the two people's argument. How would they notice that haystack at their back. Now,after turning around,they found a sudden open fire.

  This haystack is a pile of straws piled up by the people in town after they have harvested corn. It is dry and flammable. In the blink of an eye,the flames spread and thick smokes billowed for a while.
  
  A group of people panicked, and among them,Xu Chaoyang,the oldest,ran the fastest and hid in the back room. Xu Zhaixing thought of the cigarette butt he had just thrown away,and she was so angry.
  
  This place is located in the backyard,and the adults were busy in the front. She pulls the two panicked young female cousins ​​behind her:"Quickly go and look for your parents,and tell them that older cousin Chaoyang littered cigarette butts and burned the haystack!"
  
  After speaking,she looked around and saw a circle of flexible water pipe covered with mud in the corner of the courtyard which should have been used to irrigate the farmland,and hurried over.
  
  Fortunately,the laundry room was built in the backyard so Xu Zhaixing connected the faucet with the water hose. She had just unscrewed the switch and was about get the other end,but someone already leaned over and picked up the water pipe and ran over.
  
  There were no combustibles around the haystack,so it burned fast and extinguished quickly. When the adults heard about the fire and hurriedly ran over with the water basin and bucket,the fire was already put out.
  
  Everyone was a little stunned for a while.
  
  Father and mother Xu reacted,threw the basin,and hurried over to hug Xu Zhaixing : Wasn't it burning?Ah?Where was it burning?You, this child. Why don't you know how to run!And Xu Yan,you too as well!All right?"
  
  Xu Yan shook his head with a smile.
  
  Xu Zhaixing rubbed the water on her hand and exclaimed in a fuming voice that everyone could hear:"Who'll ran away from extinguishing the fire,what would we do if it burned the house!Second older cousin runs faster than rabbits. If older cousin were not here,I wouldn't know what would have happened!"
  
  The two young female cousins who had been hurried to go back by Xu Zhaixing just a moment ago had been crying and spreading the words,"Older cousin Chaoyang littered cigarette butts and burned the haystack," that it was known to everyone by now.
  
  A whole crowd of relatives looked east and west,discussing spiritedly.
  
  Xu Zhiwen dragged out Xu Chaoyang who was hiding in the back room, and firmly slapped him on the head:"You don't study properly everyday,and learn to smoke!You even burned the haystack. I, your father will beat you to death!"
  
  All adults intent on turning big problems into small ones and small problems into no problems at all,adviced:"Forget it ,forget it. No accident happened so it's fine."
  
  Once again praised Xu Zhaixing:"This daughter from the third's family was taught very well,and grew up to be amazing. Steady, vigorous, and not disoriented even in the face of danger!"
  
  Xu Zhailxing showed a bashful smile.
  
  Nothing serious happened. The foregoing funeral was still bustling on. The adults warned their children and went back to work. Xu Chaoyang had also left dejectedly.
  
  Xu Yan had rolled up the water pipe to properly put it away,and was about to leave. Xu Zhaixing who had sent a few young cousins out,chased him up and called out:"Older brother Xu Yan."
  
  Xu Yan turned around and slightly narrowed his eyes,looking at her with a smile,but with a sense of distance.
  
  Xu Zhaixing showed him a cute smile:"Older cousin Xu Yan,I'm Xu Zhaixing,you haven't seen me yet right?I hadn't been born yet when you went abroad."
  
  Xu Yan thought deeply:"I haven't seen it."
  
  Xu Zhaixing blinked her eyes:"I heard that you study with a major in media in college,and I also want to learn this in the future. Can you tell me about it?"
  
  Xu Yan stared at her for a while,then suddenly smiled meaningfully:"If you want to say something,be straightforward. I'm not Xu Chaoyang. "
  
  I'm not Xu Chaoyang. Don't pretend in front of me.
  
  His insight was bound to be venomous in order to later become a gold medal broker in the show busines. Xu Zhaixing knew that her folk Oscar-level performance had already been seen through,but on the contrary,she was relieved to hear him say it so.
  
  Who is willing to pretend? Isn't it just to fit the personality of senior high school students.
  
  She shrugged her shoulders and smiled generously:"Older cousin,I heard that you have just graduated from school. It's hard to find a domestic job now. Do you have any ideas of starting a business?"
