However, peace did not last long. Zhou Yuan knocked on the door frame and immediately saw Gu Man lying on the table, preparing to sleep. He immediately blushed with shame.
However, because of Gu Man’s good results, he did not say anything. Instead, he coughed softly. “Gu Man, come out. Someone’s looking for you.”
Gu Man looked up, her hair a little messy. She stood up impatiently and looked at Zhou Yuan. “Who is it?”
The moment Zhou Yuan’s gaze met hers, he subconsciously felt the urge to retreat. However, at the thought of his status, he continued to speak, but there was a cautious tone in his voice. “It’s someone from your family.”
Gu Man stood up in confusion and walked towards the door. Grandma and Uncle would not look for her at this time, let alone Huang Jue. He was still taking the exam. Who could it be?
With doubts, Gu Man followed Zhou Yuan into the office. As soon as the door was pushed open, a woman rushed towards her.
Gu Man turned her body slightly to dodge her attack and could tell who the disheveled woman was.
Qu Bei’s eyes were red, as if she had experienced a disaster. She stared at Gu Man resentfully and bit her lower lip. “Gu Man! How far do you want to force us to be satisfied? Don’t forget that you’re also a member of the Gu Family. You can’t escape if anything happens to us!”
Gu Yuan stood at the side and was much calmer, but his eyes were red. The hatred in his eyes seemed to want to tear her apart, and his hands that hung by his sides were clenched tightly.
Gu Man looked at the two of them and frowned tightly, impatience in her eyes. They had actually chased her all the way to school?
Zhou Yuan saw that the situation was not good and subconsciously turned to look at Gu Man. “Do you want to see them? Why don’t you return to the cla.s.sroom first?”
Unexpectedly, as soon as she said this, she received Qu Bei’s strong objection. “No, we’re her family. If we want to meet her, do we have to fast first?”
Qu Bei gritted her teeth and said, “Gu Man, you’ve caused us so much trouble. Don’t worry, you definitely won’t be able to escape. There’s also Rou’er. She’s so kind and has always loved you. You actually did such a thing to her. You’re simply heartless. Even a dog is better than you!”
She accused word by word, as if Gu Man was a heinous sinner.
Zhou Yuan was confused. He looked around, not knowing who to believe. He looked at Gu Man’s expression. “What did you do?”
Gu Man looked at Zhou Yuan and then at the office. There were no other outsiders here. She did not know if Zhou Yuan had deliberately dismissed them.
She was not in the mood to answer now. Instead, she walked forward.
The powerful aura on her made Qu Bei subconsciously take a step back. When she reacted, she looked angry from embarra.s.sment, but before she could speak, Gu Man already attacked.
She grabbed Qu Bei’s neck and restricted her ability to speak. “I don’t believe you don’t know what she did. Or are you glad to see it?”
Gu Yuan was even angrier when he saw this scene. He was furious and shouted louder, “Gu Man, what are you doing? She’s your mother!”
“My mother died a long time ago. You caused her death. Do you still want me to remind you again?” Gu Man tilted her head and the aura around her instantly turned cold. The moment she met that pitch-black gaze, Gu Yuan could not say anything, but he was furious because of Gu Man’s words. He breathed heavily, as if he was about to suffocate. His neck was red.
Seeing that things were gradually getting out of control, Zhou Yuan hurriedly came out to mediate. “Look, can’t you guys talk things out? You’re all family. Gu Man is just a little quiet, but you can’t be too biased. After all, we’re all family. Gu Man, let go of your mother first. Let’s talk slowly.”
Although Zhou Yuan did not know the truth of the matter, he had more or less figured it out after hearing so much..
