Gu Yanxiao and Gu Chenyi had always been popular within HSAU and Gu Xi had been labeled “Goddess Xi” since the Joint Science Competition.

The three of them appearing at the same time in front of the school at the same time, especially getting out of the same car, had, naturally, attracted a lot of attention.

“How come the three of them came to school together?”

“Yeah.
What is going on? What is the relationship between the three of them?”

“Don’t tell me that Gu YuanChen is really going after Gu Xi.” That rumor started the day after Gu Xi’s transfer when Gu Chenyi had gone over Class #7 to “show his fondness”.

“Are you crazy?” The person next to them rolled their eyes.
“That was yesterday’s news alright.
They are related, okay?”

“Seriously? Where did you find that out from?”

“Many at school know that already.
Besides, Wang Ruijie is a friend of Gu Yanxiao’s on WeChat.
Gu Yanxiao had announced it in his friend's circle a long time ago.”

“Oh, I see.”

“That’s right.
Goddess Xi is also a Gu.”

“They seem so close with each other……”

“I’m so envious.”

The ones around them discussed in low voices.

On this side, Gu Xi took a look at the two showy big boys.
She really had no idea what they were so proud of.

Nevertheless, after the time that she had spent with them, Gu Xi did get to know the two of them better.

To sum it up, Gu Yanxiao was someone who seemed nice on the outside but mean on the inside whereas Gu YuanChen was just the contrary who was mean on the outside but nice on the inside.

Gu Yanxiao gave Gu Xi’s backpack back to her only when they have arrived at Class #7.

Gu Chenyi, too, said to her very seriously, “You need to take good care of yourself in class too.
Contact me on WeChat if anything happens or if you need my help.
I promise I’ll be here in less than a minute.”

Gu Xi found Gu Chenyi’s serious look comical.
What could possibly happen?

Comical as he might be, Gu Xi felt a sense of warmth in her heart nonetheless.

“Okay.” Gu Xi smiled and nodded, doing her best to mimic Gu Chenyi’s serious look.

“You be good too,” said Gu Xi and, for the sake of going along with what she was saying, she patted Gu Chenyi on his head.

Gu Chenyi, “……” Why was it that she always like to pat him on his head?

Her doing that made him feel like a little brother.

Which he was.

……

Gu Xi finally turned and walked inside the classroom after the other two left for their respective classrooms.

When Gu Xi walked inside the classroom, she was met by all sorts of looks from others in the classroom.
Of course, Dong Mingming was the most excited one of all.

As soon as Gu Xi had sat down at her seat, Dong Mingming immediately stuck her head over with a surprised look.

“You really are related to Gu Yanxiao and Gu Chenyi?” asked Dong Mingming curiously.

Even though there had been a lot of rumors on that but most did not believe in them.
Gu Xi had, after all, just transferred in.

Up until yesterday when Dong Mingming saw the family photo that Gu Xi had shared in her friend's circle.

“Yeah.” Gu Xi nodded.

“Cousins on your dad’s side?”

“Mmhmm.”

“No wonder……” Dong Mingming grumbled.

No wonder Gu Yanxiao and Gu Chenyi, the two who had always been too high and might to even care about these voting events in school would go all out in trying to round up votes for Gu Xi.

The two had seemingly endless ideas in rounding up votes for Gu Xi: Vote for concert tickets, vote for signed basketballs, vote for notes from class, vote for homework assignments……

The variety of ideas and the amount on investment were shocking.

She had a feeling that had they go on any longer, they would have to start cells their pots, pans, and themselves.

They were effective, though.
With the two’s appeal, Gu Xi’s vote shot up like a rocket.

That made Dong Mingming excited all over again.
She held onto Gu Xi’s hand and said, “Oh right.
You don’t know this yet, but you are already #2 on your votes!”

Their class had entered the race later than the others and lost the edge of getting votes at the beginning.
Gu Xi’s votes were about the same as the original person who was in the number two spot.
With Gu Yanxiao and Gu Chenyi’s crazy ways, not only had Gu Xi passed the original number two, but she had pulled away quite a bit from her as well.

As Dong Mingming talked, she pulled out her phone and showed it to Gu Xi.
“Look.
This is your current votes.”

Gu Xi saw a long string of numbers.

“These two worked so hard on this!” said Dong Mingming, touched.

It seemed Gu Yanxiao and Gu Chenyi were not the only ones helping Gu Xi out.
Even Sheng Xiuyan seemed to have asked for others to vote for Gu Xi in his friend's circle.

Gu Xi had all three male gods rounding up votes for her.
This showiness and this damage were unparalleled!

Would Gu Xi be able to rush all the way to the number one spot?

Dong Mingming couldn't help but wondered.

She dared not dream about this before.

After all, Gu XueEr was the one currently in the number one spot.

As the beauty queen and goddess of the school, all of Gu XueEr’s supporters from freshman to junior year could circle the school a few times if they were to line up.

But Gu Xi’s votes were really growing in an astonishing rate right now!
