Chapter 802: I Believe You Will Succeed
Guan Tao smiled and nodded. She said embarra.s.sedly, “I like design magazines.”
To be precise, it was a fas.h.i.+on design magazine. However, Guan Tao also liked other magazines related to design and fas.h.i.+on. It seemed that she was born to like this.
Before seeing these fas.h.i.+on magazines for the first time, she had never come into contact with them.
When Gao Yang heard this, he nodded gently. “You’re quite suitable for this line of work. You’re very talented.”
Guan Tao was stunned. She blinked at Gao Yang. “You really think so?”
“It’s not that I think so, but we all think so,” Gao Yang said slowly. His tone was flat, as if he was talking about something very ordinary, but his tone was exceptionally serious.
As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Yang looked at Guan Tao and said, “I believe you will succeed.”
Guan Tao was slightly stunned, but her heart trembled.
It wasn’t ‘I think you can succeed‘, but?‘I believe you will succeed.’
Being a fas.h.i.+on designer was her dream. However, because she was born in a place like South City, such a dream would more or less be unrealistic in the eyes of others, so she never told others she liked these.
“Thank you.” Guan Tao felt like crying. She was really touched that Gao Yang would say these words to her.
Seeing this, the corners of Gao Yang’s mouth twitched as if he wanted to smile, but he didn’t.
“Tao Zi!”
At this moment, Xia Qinghuan suddenly rushed into the cla.s.sroom with her schoolbag and went straight for Guan Tao.
Guan Tao was shocked again. “What’s wrong, Qinghuan?”
Xia Qinghuan glanced at Gao Yang and said to Guan Tao, “The public noticeboard…”
Halfway through, Xia Qinghuan swallowed her words and immediately grabbed Guan Tao’s arm. “Come out with me.”
Seeing this, Jian Ai stood up and chased after them. “What happened?”
The school noticeboard had just announced the rankings of the city’s preliminary examinations last week, but it had not been removed yet.
Xia Qinghuan pulled Guan Tao to the noticeboard and pointed at it. “Tao Zi, look!”
Guan Tao frowned and looked over at Xia Qinghuan’s finger. Her back immediately turned cold.
Her name had been painted over black by a marker, and they could not see the words on it.
The entire rankings were clean. They had been pasted here for two weeks, and there was not even a trace of stain. Guan Tao’s name, which had been smeared with a black marker, looked especially out of place.
It didn’t seem like a big deal, but as the person involved, Guan Tao felt her scalp tingle.
“Who did this?” Jian Ai was also a little shocked. How much did this person hate Guan Tao to paint her name black?
Xia Qinghuan shook her head. “I don’t know either. I just entered school and had nothing to do, so I wanted to look at the rankings again. Never expected to see this.”
As she spoke, Xia Qinghuan’s expression darkened. She lowered her voice and looked at the two of them. “I think it has something to do with the autumn trip.”
It would have been fine if she didn’t mention it. However, with Xia Qinghuan’s deduction, Guan Tao couldn’t help but have gooseb.u.mps. Had she met a perverted murderer? Why did it seem like a plot from a mystery novel?
Jian Ai was also a little worried. This didn’t seem like a prank, because it felt like Guan Tao was the target.
Not that she and Qinghuan were overthinking. The same person who pushed Guan Tao into the water during the autumn trip might have done this.
“Tao Zi, think about it. Did you offend anyone? From the other cla.s.ses…” Xia Qinghuan asked.
