Chapter 76
76 Bigshot Is Misunderstood
Mrs. Zhou still wanted to say something, but Mrs. Zhang had already stood up. She pulled Gu Rou and said, “Let’s go and take a look. I know where she is.”
Zhong Kai was telling Gu Man some strange stories about the physics world. Gu Man was very fascinated.
At this moment, two people suddenly barged in. Gu Man and Zhong Kai were stunned.
After seeing who it was, Gu Man’s face immediately darkened. She asked coldly, “Gu Rou, what are you doing here?”
Seeing that Gu Man was really eating with a man, Gu Rou gloated, but she seemed to be very worried. “Gu Man, who is this gentleman?”
Gu Man was a little angry when she heard such a question, but since it involved her teacher, she still explained, “My teacher.”
After Gu Rou heard this, she looked at Zhong Kai again and confirmed that she had never seen this person before. She felt that today was the best opportunity to ruin Gu Man’s reputation.
Gu Rou raised her voice, showing that she was very disappointed in Gu Man. “Gu Man, you’re still lying at a time like this. When can you change this habit of yours?”
Gu Rou’s words convicted Gu Man of lying again. Gu Man was so angry that she laughed. “Aren’t you the one that’s crazy?”
Seeing Gu Man scold her, Madam Zhang thought that she was indeed unpresentable. She immediately acted like a parent. “Gu Man, your sister cares about you. Why are you scolding her? You’re the one who did something shameful. Did your sister say anything wrong about you?”
“And who are you? Don’t let your saliva fly out in front of me.”
Madam Zhang choked. This Gu Man was really difficult to communicate with.
Seeing that Madam Zhang was choked speechless, Gu Rou almost wanted to laugh out loud.
Gu Man was indeed brainless. She dared to offend anyone. She immediately pretended to scold her. “Gu Man, don’t be rude. This is Brother Yue’s mother. Hurry up and apologize to Auntie.”
Seeing that Gu Man was cold and silent, Gu Rou said to Madam Zhang, “Auntie, I’m sorry on behalf of Gu Man. She didn’t mean to choke you. She’s always like this.”
Madam Zhang snorted. “I can’t afford her apology. She’s still so self-righteous after doing something wrong. I can’t control her.”
“Gu Rou, let’s go.” Madam Zhang was about to pull Gu Rou away.
Gu Rou took a step away and said anxiously to Madam Zhang, “How can we abandon Gu Man? She said that she was having a meal with a teacher. I know all the teachers in Han City First High School, but I don’t know this gentleman. How can I be at ease without understanding the situation?”
Gu Man was about to laugh at Gu Rou’s words. “Gu Rou, stop pretending. Who do you think you are? Do you know everyone?”
Gu Rou felt that the angrier Gu Man was, the fishier it was. She had to dig out Gu Man’s scandal so that she could no longer be stubborn.
“Gu Man, listen to me. Either you leave with me now, or you explain yourself,” Gu Rou said as she wanted to pull Gu Man away.
Seeing that Gu Rou refused to stop until she achieved her goal, Gu Man scoffed coldly, “Can you not be as clingy and disgusting as a slug?”
Seeing that Gu Man was scolding her so badly, Gu Rou was actually furious in her heart. However, she looked aggrieved. “Gu Man, you can say anything about me in private. Why do you have to scold me in front of everyone? I’m doing this for your own good.”
Gu Man really wanted to say that if she continued, she might not only use her mouth but also her hands.
Madam Zhang, who was standing at the side and watching coldly, saw that Gu Man was unmoved by force or persuasion and even scolded her so badly that her head hurt. At this moment, she was extremely glad that Zhang Yue did not like Gu Man. Otherwise, she might have vomited blood.
Madam Zhang couldn’t help but say, “Gu Man, how can a girl casually go out for a meal with a stranger? You’re in the wrong. It’s not too late to change.”
When Gu Man heard this, she was already extremely angry. If he had misunderstood her, she would treat it as if she had been barked by a dog. But now that Teacher Zhong had been misunderstood for no reason, she felt bad.
Just as she was about to refute, Gu Rou said, “Gu Man, even if you’re angry and even if you scold me, I still have to do this. What you’re doing now is not good for your reputation and the Gu family’s reputation.”
