46 The Big Boss Has Been Taken Care Of
Just as Xiao Xiao finished egging Gu Man on to become a celebrity, the boy behind the table couldn’t help but scold her, “Xiao Xiao, isn’t it just because your family has a management company? You have an occupational disease and you have to change it! You have to know that not everyone with status wants to become a celebrity.”
The boy turned around and took the opportunity to speak to Gu Man. “Don’t listen to her. She encourages every good-looking person she sees to become a celebrity. She doesn’t even let me off. She’s really unreasonable.”
Xiao Xiao scoffed and said, “Don’t flatter yourself. I’ve never asked you okay? My taste has a bottom line! Someone as good-looking as Gu Man, after being packaged by my company, will be eight streets ahead of Wei Wei!”
Just as Xiao Xiao was laughing uncontrollably, someone shouted from the door, “Gu Man, someone is looking for you!”
Gu Man looked at the cla.s.sroom door and saw Bai Ling standing there with a big smile on her face.
Gu Man didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Why did she feel that this little girl was so clingy? Moreover, she had a pa.s.sion that seemed to never fade. Sometimes, she really couldn’t take it.
Gu Man walked out. “Why are you looking for me?”
When Bai Ling saw Gu Man walk out, she went over and hugged her hand like a cute pug. “Miss Gu Man, why didn’t you look for me when you came to school? The school was full of news about you today. They said that you were kicked out of Cla.s.s Five. They went overboard! Are you okay?”
Gu Man nodded and pulled Bai Ling away. “I’m fine!”
Bai Ling looked at the students in the cla.s.sroom. “Are they nice to you?”
“Nice!” Gu Man replied simply. In fact, she was worried that her cla.s.smates would be too enthusiastic about her.
“Cla.s.s is about to start. Hurry up and go back.” Gu Man looked at the time and reminded her.
Bai Ling was a little dissatisfied with Gu Man’s urging her to leave. She pouted and said, “My brother wants me to come and see you too!”
Was it Bai Yun’s orders again?
“Help me thank him. I’m fine.” Gu Man felt a warm current flowing through her heart. After being in this world for so long, a stranger was the one that had actually given her the greatest care.
“I understand. Big sister, I’ll go back to the cla.s.sroom first. I’ll look for you after school!” Bai Ling said as she left.
When Gu Man returned to her seat, her deskmate, Xiao Xiao, started gossiping. “Wow, Gu Man, you know someone from the Bai family?”
Even in the eyes of these teenagers, people were divided into different levels.
Although these students were usually immersed in their studies, they knew very well what their cla.s.smates’ backgrounds were, and how strong their backgrounds were, especially those from top families. Even those from different grades knew a thing or two.
Gu Man did not want to say too much. “We’ve met.”
This was also the truth. It seemed like she had only met Bai Yun and Xiang Yin a few times.
“That’s great. If Li Guo knows that you’re close to the Bai family, he won’t dare to do anything to you!” Xiao Xiao clapped her hands as if she had finally removed a heavy burden.
After two cla.s.ses, it was time for lunch. Xiao Xiao smiled and suggested, “Shall we go for lunch?”
A memory emerged from Gu Man’s mind. It was the Host’s memory.
At that time, the Host was eating alone. No one was willing to approach her. Endless loneliness surrounded her, but this was not the end. When she was eating, she was often mocked and teased by Li Guo and the others. In order to avoid this situation, the Host chose to go hungry most of the time.
If the Host had been a.s.signed to Cla.s.s 10 from the beginning, would the situation be much better?
But there were not so many ifs.
Seeing that Gu Man did not answer in a daze, Xiao Xiao asked again. Gu Man then came back to her senses.
Just as she said “okay”, Xiao Xiao took her hand and walked out, as if she was afraid that she would go back on her word and not go.
Gu Man was not used to such intimacy. She secretly tried to break free a few times but could not succeed. In the end, she could only accept her fate. After all, she could not really be rough.
The cafeteria of Han City First High was segregated by grade, every grade had its own cafeteria.
There were hundreds of people in the ten cla.s.ses of the third graders. Almost all of them were gathered here.
The more people there were, the more gossip there would be.
Whether it was queuing up to get food or when she was eating, Gu Man could feel her schoolmates pointing at her. However, Gu Man did not care. She did not even look up.
