“Hey, I’m quite curious about Gu Mang’s score. Have her results been released?” a teacher asked casually.
The two were biological sisters. It was normal for their grades to be compared.
“How high can she score? It’s good enough if she doesn’t get a zero. You don’t know how much of a headache she is for the Language Teacher of Class Twenty. She doesn’t even write her compositions. That fella in the Language Department is really kind too, she has never forced Gu Mang to write. She would have been kicked out of class by any other teacher,” the female teacher who had a rather good relationship with Luo Songhua said.
She knew that Luo Songhua did not like Gu Mang so she did not speak nicely about her.
Luo Songhua laughed. “I heard that when Class Twenty was checking their results, she was sleeping on her desk. Not anxious in the slightest bit.”
“Does she need to be anxious with those grades of hers?” The female teacher laughed as well. “Forget it, let’s not talk about her. Let’s have lunch at the restaurant outside of school as a celebration for Ms. Luo.”
The other teachers around them did not cut in when they were talking about Gu Mang. Only when they talked about eating did they join the conversation.
...
Gu Yin, Jianghuai and a few others also went to the cafeteria for food.
“What are you eating, Yinyin?” Jianghuai looked at the cafeteria menu.
Gu Yin’s phone had been vibrating from the start and she only had time to see to it now. She did not even look up and she answered casually, “I shall have pork ribs with rice.”
“Sure, go and find us a seat.” Jianghuai told her before going to order the food.
“Yinyin, let’s go and sit first.” Gu Yin’s deskmate held her arm and they walked to the eating area to find a seat.
Gu Yin was still looking at her phone. She told her uncle about how she and Yi Chen might both be ranked first. Uncle should have told everyone in the Lei family about it. Everyone was congratulating her on WeChat.
Everyone in the Lei family texted her and asked her about Gu Mang’s performance as well. They asked if she could make it into a technical college. Gu Mang replied to all the messages and said that Gu Mang had not checked her scores yet.
“True, she said that she would get 0 for all her subjects so there’s no point in checking her grades. I thought that she would be of some use. I hope she won’t step into the real world with nothing but just a high school certificate. That’s embarrassing.”
That was how almost all the relatives replied to her.
Gu Yin put her phone away. She was in a rather good mood and she turned to her deskmate. “Do you want some bubble tea? My treat.”
The deskmate smiled. “Sure.”
The two of them waved at Jianghuai and went out of the cafeteria.
At the entrance of the bubble tea shop.
“Sister Mang, you don’t drink milk tea and prefer honey yuzu drink?” Lu Yang turned around and looked at Gu Mang strangely.
She uttered a soft assent and yawned lazily. She did not sleep well the previous night and she was extremely tired the entire day. She rested her arm on Meng Jinyang’s shoulder and leaned on her.
Lu Yang and Fatty were looking at Gu Mang and they really wanted to know where she had gone the previous night. She had slept for the entire morning and she still wasn’t refreshed yet. She was even too lazy to check her grades but no one had the guts to question her.
When they bought their stuff, they intended to head to the cafeteria for their meals but they bumped into Gu Yin and her deskmate.
Gu Yin smiled and her tone was as innocent as usual. “Sister, uncle and the others were asking about your scores just now and I told them that you had not checked. The school will be distributing the results to all the classes later in the afternoon. Remember to inform uncle about it.”
Everyone ignored her. Gu Mang drank her honey yuzu drink without a care and walked away casually.
When they passed each other, Gu Yin spoke again. “Ms. Xi should be very disappointed that I am the top performing student.”
Qin Yaozhi had also heard about the Best Teacher Award. When their results were released, they also felt that they had let their teacher down and had not shown enough support.
But Xi Yan did not care about it. She was just looking around for good resources so as to send them to good universities.
Was Gu Yin trying to find fault in Xi Yan?
