202 Playing Big
“Han Yi and Gu Man bet that if Gu Man can get into the top 100 in this test, he’ll be a tree-climbing pig!” Xiao Xiao chimed in and explained for Gu Man.
Mo Qing panicked. “Xiao Xiao, don’t be too smug. It’s just a joke. Do you have to hold on to it?”
“Since you’re so worried about Han Yi, go be the pig for him!” Xiao Xiao took a step forward and argued with Mo Qing.
“What are you talking about?!”
Mo Qing was furious and suddenly pushed Xiao Xiao’s shoulder. Before Xiao Xiao could react, she almost fell to the ground. It was Gu Man who caught her quickly.
“Thank you.” Xiao Xiao turned around and looked at the cold Gu Man. She could not help but blush.
Gu Man… really had an indescribable charm that made people want to submit to her.
Gu Man did not take this child-like bet to heart. After all, regardless of whether there was this bet or not, she was still someone who wanted to enter Zhongchu University.
If she did not show her strength, on the day of the college entrance examination, there would only be more people questioning her results.
Hence, during the test this time, she showed off her skills, but Han Yi and the others pestered her and even dared to attack her friend…
Gu Man narrowed her eyes and looked at Han Yi unkindly. “Han Yi, are you going to be a spineless man or a pig that climbs a tree? Choose.”
Han Yi’s expression immediately turned ugly as if he had eaten sh*t.
Gu Man’s words were forcing him to make a choice, and there was no other way!
Mo Qing panicked. She quickly grabbed Jiang Hai’s arm and begged him for help. “Teacher Jiang, help Han Yi. Wouldn’t he be embarra.s.sing Cla.s.s One if he climbs the tree?”
Jiang Hai’s face was ashen. He was about to say something when Gu Man said calmly, “Compared to Cla.s.s One’s reputation, the reputation of Han City First High School is more important, right?
“The students of Han City First High School went back on their word and casually broke a promise. If word spreads, who would dare to send their child to Han City First High School? Don’t you think so, Director Mo Yong?”
After Gu Man finished speaking, she looked at Mo Yong, making him feel a headache. He had no choice but to brace himself and accept this hot potato.
But he still wanted to struggle.
“Student Gu Man, you and Han Yi are schoolmates…”
“When he threatened me with dropping out of school, why didn’t he think of our relationship as schoolmates?” Gu Man’s words blocked Mo Yong’s excuse.
The office fell silent again. Mo Qing glared at Gu Man, as if she wanted to cut Gu Man into pieces with her eyes.
Gu Man walked up to Han Yi unhurriedly. Facing Han Yi’s lowered head, she pointed outside the school building and said, “Choose.”
Han Yi instantly gritted his teeth. His face was pale and his eyes were red. “Gu Man, just you wait!”
Han Yi roared angrily, knocked Gu Man away, and rushed out of the office.
“Han Yi!”
Mo Qing exclaimed and chased after him. Wei Wei looked at Gu Man angrily and turned to leave.
If Han Yi really climbed a tree, the people in their clique would not be able to raise their heads.
As Wei Wei thought about it, she hated Han Yi.
Idiot, why must he make a bet!
Seeing that the usually arrogant clique had been defeated, Xiao Xiao was about to gloat and watch Han Yi climb the tree when Gu Man stopped her. “Don’t join in the fun.”
Jiang Yi tried to steer the conversation. “That’s right. What’s so good about a male pig climbing a tree? We should congratulate Gu Man! Tell me, where are we going tonight? My treat!”
“Let’s go to the restaurant last time! I haven’t eaten enough!”
As soon as she heard that there was food, Xiao Xiao’s eyes lit up and she immediately forgot about Han Yi and the others.
Jiang Yi glanced at Gu Man. He wanted to know what Gu Man was thinking more.
However, Gu Man had no time to care about Jiang Yi. “No, I still have something on tonight.”
“What is it? Are you going to secretly study behind our backs?” Xiao Xiao joked.
“Of course not.” Gu Man shook her head. “I’m going to the ghost market tonight.”
Ghost market?”
Xiao Xiao was stunned. Her eager expression was mixed with fear.
Ever since she heard that Jiang Yi and Gu Man had gone to the ghost market, she had wanted to go and take a look, but she did not dare to mention it.
Gu Man could tell what Xiao Xiao was thinking. After some thought, she smiled and asked, “How about it? Do you want to join us? Go big or go home.”
