At the start, I tricked the school beauty, and ended up with twins?

```

An autumn breeze blew by, causing Lin Xinyue's strands of hair to fall across her eyes.

Gu Yu reached out to help her tuck the loose strands behind her ear.

"What made you think of picking me up after class? Look, your arrival has caused quite a stir among my classmates, and I'm feeling a bit embarrassed."

Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue walked side by side, smiles adorning their faces.

Having such a beautiful girlfriend, it was hard not to draw attention when out and about!

"Pssh, that's nothing. You don't know how famous you've become at school! This morning at the student council, everyone was talking about you!"

Lin Xinyue rolled her eyes at Gu Yu, her gaze casually sweeping over the passing students.

Almost everyone's attention was on the two of them.

From time to time, groups of girls would gather together, their faces full of gossip, standing in the distance and taking photos of them.

When those girls raised their phones, Lin Xinyue subconsciously clung to Gu Yu's arm.

"Wow! Even our aloof school beauty has her tender moments!"

"Woo woo, I got it, I got it, so satisfying!"

"Look at this picture, the two of them together are just perfect! They give off the vibe of a youth idol drama's leads!"

"..."

The girls were as thrilled and excited as if they had stumbled upon the sweet couple from an idol drama.

"Oh? Am I really more famous than our Haidong's number one school beauty, Miss Lin?"

Gu Yu looked surprised.

Lin Xinyue pursed her lips; this guy really was oblivious to what happened at school!

"Of course! The new Skateboard King from the class of '18, a hot candidate for campus heartthrob in 2020, top ten academic achiever in the software department, and you even corrected Professor Dai Zhengguo's medical error on the spot at the accident scene. If you're not famous, then who is?"

Lin Xinyue listed all the popular titles associated with Gu Yu in one breath.

On their own, each title might not have made Gu Yu that famous.

But all these titles had now converged on him!

This directly set off an explosion of popularity!

Compared to her, the school beauty who was about to leave in less than a year, she was practically overshadowed!

"Hey, don't these people have classes to attend? Why are they so obsessed with gossiping about me?"

Gu Yu looked at the students by the roadside and couldn't help feeling a bit of a headache.

He really wanted to keep a low profile, but his reputation just would not allow it!

"Gu Yu, President Lin! What a coincidence to see you both again!"

Suddenly, someone approached from the side of the road to greet Gu Yu.

Gu Yu turned his head to look, and it was a handsome young man around 185 cm tall.

He was dressed in British fashion, but the key was the white-faced, black-bezeled Omega Seamaster diving watch on his left wrist, worth over thirty thousand yuan.

Just looking at his outfit, he was definitely a rich second generation!

Gu Yu felt he looked familiar, but couldn't remember his name at the moment, though it was obvious the other person recognized him and Lin Xinyue.

"You are?"

Gu Yu hesitated, then asked the other person's name.

"Look at you, out of sight, out of mind. I'm Ma Tengyun from the finance class of '19! You helped me pick up my fountain pen at the school gate that day!"

Ma Tengyun looked at Gu Yu with a bit of complaint, but he wasn't upset, just re-introducing himself.

"Oh! Now I remember! Is there something you need from me?"

Gu Yu smacked his fist into his palm, immediately recalling who he was!

At the same time, he remembered that this classmate often hung out at the Student Affairs Office activity room, only usually not dressed as expensively as today, so he didn't recognize him immediately.

Seeing Gu Yu remember him, the smile on Ma Tengyun's face grew even brighter.

He enviously glanced at Lin Xinyue by Gu Yu's side; Lin Xinyue's outfit today was very youthful, not at all how she usually dressed!

It was clear she'd dressed up specially for Gu Yu!

It dawned on Ma Tengyun then that the school beauty president's aloofness was directed at others, not at her boyfriend!

As expected, Lin Xinyue just nodded seriously at him, showing no intention of chatting.

Ma Tengyun didn't mind and continued to talk to Gu Yu.

"Didn't you help me the other day? But you left too quickly, and I didn't get to add you on Feixin. I haven't run into you since, and didn't get the chance to thank you properly!"

"I just happened to see you and hurried over, hoping to add you on Feixin or QQ, and find a time to properly express my gratitude!"

Ma Tengyun got straight to the point, and took his phone out of his pocket—it was an ipear (Pears) 11 ProMax.

"Haha, it wasn't a big deal, no need to thank me!"

Gu Yu laughed, about to refuse, but Ma Tengyun had already opened his Feixin QR code, insisting on adding Gu Yu as a friend.

Gu Yu had no choice but to take out his phone and add him.

"You might not think it's a big deal, but to me, it really was!"

"You don't understand; if I had lost that Tolstoy fountain pen, my dad would probably beat me with his belt! He went to great lengths overseas to get that pen with the serial number 1998!"

"Besides, thanking you is secondary! The main thing is, I wanted to get to know you better, senior! I feel like you're definitely not an ordinary person!"

As the friend request popped up on his phone, Ma Tengyun hurriedly approved it, changing the nickname to Yu.

Then, with a laugh, he put the phone back in his pocket.

"Heh, you sure hold me in high esteem."

```

Gu Yu gave a faint smile, not expecting Ma Tengyun to have such a sharp eye.

He really wasn't an ordinary person, and even he wouldn't deny it!

"I believe in my own insight!"

Ma Tengyun too gave a faint smile and raised two fingers to point at his eyes.

"Alright! I've got to hurry to my finance simulation class, so I won't disturb your little world of two!"

After glancing at his watch, Ma Tengyun politely took his leave.

Not long after he left, Lin Xinyue, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up,

"Um… do you know what the identity of that Ma Tengyun is?"

"What identity? Rich second generation? I can tell!"

Looking at the playful smile in Lin Xinyue's eyes, Gu Yu voiced his guess.

But Lin Xinyue shook her head with a smile: "You're only half right! Ma Tengyun is more than just a rich second generation! His father is Ma Zikang! A real estate tycoon of Modu City Beach! His current net worth is over a hundred billion..."

"Hiss—"

When Lin Xinyue revealed Ma Tengyun's identity, Gu Yu gasped in surprise.

A hundred billion!

Even with the system, without sparing any cost, it would still be extremely difficult to make that much money!

He even doubted whether every mogul on the rich list had a system like his!

God Rich System!

Recently, there was an influencer named Wei Ya on Dou Ying who got into big trouble for evading taxes of 1.34 billion!

If a person had a monthly salary of eight thousand and didn't spend a dime, saving up to that amount would take at least fourteen thousand years!

What kind of concept is fourteen thousand years?

Back then, mankind was still in the Stone Age for crying out loud!

Even creating a stone axe by knocking rocks together was considered a technological breakthrough!

Ma Tengyun's father had a net worth of a hundred billion!

Gu Yu couldn't even begin to comprehend what a hundred billion meant anymore.

At that point, money was probably just a number; if he dropped a hundred bucks on the ground, he wouldn't even bother picking it up!

Sums of several hundred thousand coming and going in a minute!

Suddenly, he felt that Ma Tengyun wearing an Omega watch worth over thirty thousand was really being low-key!

"Alright then! It seems I'm ignorant…"

Gu Yu pursed his lips, feeling it's best not to dwell on these thoughts too much, as the more he thought about it, the easier it was to feel disheartened.

"So, what's your dad's net worth?"

He casually asked Lin Xinyue.

Lin Xinyue's expression immediately became embarrassed, and she spoke hesitantly, for she had always felt Gu Yu's family background must not differ much from Ma Tengyun's.

"One... maybe twenty million? I don't go home that often."

Lin Xinyue said tentatively.

"Ah, not bad!"

Gu Yu nodded; after hearing about a hundred billion, the sound of one or two million suddenly seemed more acceptable to him!

He currently owned a shop valued at at least three to four million, held a fifty percent stake in Mr. Liu's noodle shop, and was planning a company valued at one hundred thousand.

All added up, it was almost half a ten million.

Even with all this, he still constantly reminded himself not to get carried away!

Whenever people get carried away, failure becomes more likely in everything they do!

Seeing Gu Yu's calm demeanor, Lin Xinyue's expression became somewhat dejected.

Just as she had guessed!

Gu Yu definitely had an extraordinary background!

"How about you? Can you tell me about your family situation?"

Lin Xinyue bit her lip and finally mustered the courage to ask Gu Yu.

"My grandparents and parents have all become stars in the sky, always watching over me,"

Gu Yu looked at her, paused for a second, and then pointed up to the blue sky.

His expression was calm, but his eyes couldn't hide a touch of wistfulness.

"Ah! I'm so sorry… Yu!"

It took a second for Lin Xinyue to react, her expression stiffening momentarily before her eyes quickly reddened.

"It's alright, it's been a long time! Let's go find a spot to sit and enjoy the sun,"

Gu Yu patted Lin Xinyue's head and then took her hand leading her toward a pavilion by the lake.

"If you don't mind, I'll always be by your side,"

Lin Xinyue suddenly whispered softly from behind him.

Gu Yu's steps halted for a moment, and a smile warmer than the sunshine appeared on his face.

"Good, me too!"

He held Lin Xinyue's hand a little tighter.
