51 Eating Is More Important
Gu Man, who was scolded as a jinx, closed the door and logged into her hacker account.
“Ding-dong ding-dong”. A bunch of messages popped up. They were all from Moon. One could imagine how crazy he was in the few days that Gu Man was offline.
“My lady, you’re too careless. Don’t you know that the hacker world is already in chaos?”
“Please appear quickly. My little heart can’t take it anymore!”
“The Nightfall group has turned the hacker world upside down. Are you still there? If you are, reply.”
…
Gu Man slowly scrolled down the messages and finally finished reading them.
She sent a message to Moon. “Isn’t it just that Nightfall is looking for me? What’s the hurry?”
Moon replied instantly, “What’s the hurry? Aren’t you afraid that Nether King will accept the order? I don’t need to tell you who Nether King is. He’s ranked first on the hacker rankings, and you, Eel, are ranked second.”
“Being afraid won’t solve the problem. If I dare to accept this order, I have the confidence to not be discovered. Otherwise, why would I accept that life-threatening order?”
“Are you sure you’re fine?”
“Positive!”
Hearing Gu Man’s firm guarantee, Moon was finally relieved.
After closing the hacker account, Gu Man remembered that she had yet to eat. She was about to not eat tonight when she remembered what Xiang Yin had said about eating well.
Gu Man shook her head. She had been thinking about Xiang Yin a lot recently. It was not a good thing!
However, her body was too weak. She really needed to nourish herself. Although she did not want to see the Gu family at the dining table, her body was still important.
Besides, they seemed to be even more unwilling to see her now. She could just treat it as disgusting them and making herself happy.
Gu Man walked towards the dining room. The Gu family had just taken their seats when they saw Gu Man. The harmonious atmosphere instantly froze.
Gu Rou squeezed out a smile after a long time. “Sister, you’re here for dinner too?”
Wasn’t that obvious?
Gu Man nodded perfunctorily and sat down. The servants immediately helped serve the dishes.
Fortunately, the Gu family did not dare to go overboard in their meals and accommodation. At least, Gu Yuan’s status as a philanthropist did not allow him to not give Gu Man food.
The Gu family deliberately learned the traditional way of old money to not speak while eating, so Gu Man had peace for the entire meal.
Gu Man thought that it would be even better if the Gu family could learn the characteristics of old money to not use vulgarities, not be agitated, and not be overly talkative.
However, this wish was still difficult to fulfill. As soon as he put down the bowl and chopsticks, Gu Yuan asked, “You have contact with the Bai family?”
Gu Man did not look up or answer.
She heard Gu Yuan’s words, but he did not specify who the question was for, so she did not want to answer.
“Gu Man, are you deaf?” Gu Yuan almost vomited blood. He knew that Gu Man did it on purpose.
“We have no contact.” Gu Man didn’t even look up.
“But wasn’t Bai Ling with you in school? She’s still holding your hand,” Gu Rou added.
If they knew so much about what happened in school, they must have spies.
“How did you know that Bai Ling and I were together?” Gu Man pretended to be puzzled as she looked at Gu Rou.
“I-I heard it from some juniors.” Gu Rou was furious. When did Gu Man become so difficult to deal with?
“It’s nothing. We just b.u.mped into each other and walked together.” Gu Man lied through her teeth.
Gu Man knew how bad the Gu family was. If she admitted it, the next step would be to use her to think of a way to climb onto them.
Gu Rou asked again, “How can you not know them? The last time you beat Li Guo, it was also the Bai family who interfered, right?”
“I said I don’t know them.” Gu Man pushed her chair back, stood up, and left.
The remaining members of the Gu family stared at each other angrily.
They finally realized that Gu Man could not communicate with them properly. She could anger them to death every time. She was really too detestable!
However, the members of the Gu Family were confident that it was not their fault.
Gu Man realized that her status in Cla.s.s 10 was extraordinary.
Because Jiang Yi and Lu You had become her followers.
The word “followers” is literal.
No matter where Gu Man wanted to go, she would definitely be able to see them.
They claimed to be protecting her, but since they did not hinder her, Gu Man could not be bothered by them.
