332 Girlfriend
Such an unreasonable person would be easily provoked in the future. She knew very well that the more capable she was, the more danger she would face. The Manager seemed to be someone who appreciated her ability, but he might turn into a sharp blade that would stab her in the future.
Besides, she looked down on this job.
Gu Man’s rejection was too obvious, but what was even more surprising was that she was still in school. However, on second thought, it made people feel that it was normal. After all, who didn’t like female students?
“Miss, you have to consider it carefully. With your current results, I’m afraid you won’t be able to find such a good job in the future.”
A scheming woman like her definitely wouldn’t have good grades. After all, if her grades were good, she wouldn’t do such a thing.
However, they did not know that the person standing in front of them was the first place of Han City First High School.
Their prejudice made Gu Man laugh. “Are you that sure?”
“Of course.”
Gu Man shook her head. No matter what you said or explained to people like them, they only believed what they believed in.
“Then I’m sorry. After careful consideration, I still decided to refuse.”
The Manager did not expect Gu Man to reject him so decisively without even thinking. He saw that Old Master Cui also understood where her confidence came from. He advised earnestly, “Miss, you should know that only what’s in your hands belongs to you. What others give will always belong to others.”
Old Master Cui’s anger reached its peak. These people were slandering his and his granddaughter’s reputation. It was fine if he could not protect his integrity, but how could outsiders slander a girl’s reputation?
He was about to clarify their ident.i.ties when one of them beat him to it.
“All of you are spreading rumors about my girlfriend. If I don’t speak, do you think I’m mute?”
Xiang Yin placed a hand on Gu Man’s shoulder. His words not only surprised the Manager, but also Elder Zhou.
However, the others did not know Xiang Yin’s ident.i.ty. Although most of them knew about the Xiang Family, they did not know about the head of the Xiang Family, Xiang Yin.
Xiang Yin’s personal information was never leaked to the outside world, so other than some famous people who knew his ident.i.ty, those small families did not even know what Xiang Yin looked like. They only knew that there was such a legend.
However, just by standing in front of Old Master Cui, everyone could guess that his ident.i.ty was not simple. For a moment, everyone’s gazes kept shifting between Gu Man and Xiang Yin.
“I’m old friends with Old Master Cui. I brought my girlfriend to catch up with Old Master Cui. Why did it become so unkempt in your mouth?”
Even if Xiang Yin only explained calmly, people could hear the anger in his words. For some reason, the surroundings fell silent.
Everyone lowered their heads, feeling guilty and afraid.
Gu Man frowned slightly and wanted to break free from Xiang Yin’s hand, but she felt a wave of heat on the back of her neck.
“You don’t care, but you can’t just watch as Old Master Cui loses his integrity, right?”
Xiang Yin naturally knew Gu Man’s weakness and successfully made her stop struggling and obey him.
The corners of his lips curled up slightly as he tightened his grip. The two of them leaned against each other intimately. They were really a perfect match.
Gu Man also persuaded herself in her heart. Anyway, they could break up if they were dating. It was just a name.
If Xiang Yin knew that he was just a man in Gu Man’s heart who she could break up with at any time, he would probably have nowhere to cry.
Old Master Cui was very dissatisfied when he heard Xiang Yin’s words. He had yet to acknowledge this person, so why did he take matters into his own hands?
However, this did save Gu Man’s reputation. Old Master Cui only snorted and did not deny their relationship.
Elder Zhou was the one with the greatest reaction. He looked at the two of them in disbelief and thought about what he had just said. He wished he could return to the past and slap himself twice.
As he thought about it, he suddenly remembered Xiang Yin’s cold gaze at the beginning. No wonder he was so cold. After all, he had already spread rumors about his girlfriend.
The more he thought about it, the more nervous Elder Zhou became. Cold sweat broke out on his back. It was clearly relatively warm, but he felt endlessly cold.
