Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhong Yao hesitated when she heard Gu Man’s words. Her original intention was to ruin Gu Man’s reputation, at least so that she would not be valued by Gu Yuan after entering the Gu family. However, if she made a fuss in front of the princ.i.p.al, it would only be detrimental to her.
At the very least, if the Gu family knew about this, the probability of them standing on her side was very low.
After all, one was a medical genius, and the other was only the daughter of a relative. Gu Yuan could still tell which was more important.
When Wei Wei heard Gu Man’s words, she glared at her fiercely and then looked at Zhong Yao, who was hesitating.
Of course, she refused to let go of this opportunity, so she grabbed Zhong Yao’s hand tightly. “Are you going to give up just because of a few words from her? You’re a victim. You have the right to protect your interests. Even if the heavens come, you’re not in the wrong.”
Zhong Yao looked at Wei Wei and already had some thoughts. The reason why Wei Wei helped her was only because the two of them were standing in the same direction just now. How could she not understand that Wei Wei wanted to deal with Gu Man?
However, this had already affected her interests. Of course, she would not continue to cooperate with Wei Wei’s acting.
“I’m sorry, Gu Man is still my cousin. Besides, if we get to the princ.i.p.al, I’ll definitely be blamed.” Zhong Yao was afraid that she would have a bad reputation, so she deliberately pretended to be weak and pushed all the blame to Gu Man.
Wei Wei looked at this scene and expected better from her. She also understood that Zhong Yao had already made up her mind. It was impossible for her to drag Zhong Yao to the princ.i.p.al’s office again.
Han Yi, who was standing at the side, heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this. This was the best outcome.
It made them ignore Wei Wei’s paranoia and her hatred for Gu Man, so she made up her mind to blow things up.
Anyway, there was no way to affect her interests. Even if it blew up, it would only be a good thing for her. There was no harm. At most, Zhong Yao would be criticized. How could anything happen to her, a kind-hearted informant?
At the thought of this, Wei Wei already had a plan in her heart, but she did not intend to expose her, so she pretended to be regretful and said, “Since you’ve already said so, I’m too embarra.s.sed to force you anymore. Let’s leave this matter at that.”
After doing that, Wei Wei left in a hurry.
Zhong Yao looked at Wei Wei’s departing figure and felt inexplicably uneasy. How could she be so easy to talk to? She must be holding something back.
Gu Man’s gaze kept wandering between Zhong Yao and Wei Wei, and her lips curled into a knowing smile. In that case, let them have a dogfight and see what the outcome would be.
It would definitely be very interesting.
Gu Man and Guo Guo left the school. Gu Man did not go home. Instead, she brought Guo Guo to the house she had recently bought near the school.
The house was not big. It was about a hundred square meters. The decorations inside were very warm, and it was very close to Han City First High School. The price of this property was probably not low.
Moreover, it was obvious that Gu Man had gotten someone to renovate this place. The room was very clean and tidy. Although it was a rented house, there were no traces of anyone living there. It was as new as a brand-new house.
Guo Guo was happy, but she did not show it on her face. “Thank you. I’ll return these to you in the future.”
“Then I’ll wait. 1 hope you won’t make me wait too long,” Gu Man said with a smile.
Guo Guo’s heart trembled a few times. Although she was more like the beggar during the transaction, Gu Man had always placed the two of them on an equal footing. Moreover, she had never asked for any remuneration from her even though she had paid so much.
How lucky was she to meet such a person and even have her life saved?
At the thought of this, the expression on Guo Guo’s face couldn’t help but soften. She no longer suppressed the corners of her mouth and looked at Gu Man sincerely. “I don’t know why you helped me in the beginning, but from now on, I completely believe you. I hope you won’t let me down.”
Guo Guo looked up at Gu Man seriously. She did not easily show her sincerity, but once she did, she would not take it back..
