Chapter 83
83 Bigshot Is Proud
“Teacher, don’t worry. I’ve already seen through her. I naturally won’t fall into her trap,” Gu Man said firmly to Zhuang Yan.
“She’s a young girl. I’m not worried that she’s bad. I’m just worried that if she says such things about you, it will affect your confidence,” Zhuang Yan said.
Gu Man knew that outsiders had actually underestimated the conscience of the Gu family.
How bad could they be? Didn’t the host get tired and start doubting her life because they forced her so much?
Gu Man did not want to talk about these things. She did not want or need anyone’s pity, so she said softly, “They don’t have the ability to control my emotions yet.”
When Zhuang Yan heard Gu Man’s words, he actually felt even worse.
Gu Man was so disappointed in the Gu family. How did she spend her days at home? But if Gu Man didn’t say anything, she wouldn’t mention it so as not to make her unhappy.
“That’s good.”
As soon as Zhuang Yan finished speaking, Zhong Kai’s voice came from afar. “Sorry to keep you waiting.”
Gu Man looked up and saw Zhong Kai walking over, followed by an imposing young man.
Xiang Yin?
He was the student Teacher Zhong mentioned?
Of course, Zhong Kai saw the surprise in Gu Man’s eyes, but he deliberately ignored it and introduced, “This is my student, Xiang Yin, whom I mentioned last night.”
Zhuang Yan nodded and returned to her usual coldness.
To Zhong Kai’s surprise, Gu Man only nodded, as if she did not know Xiang Yin.
Zhong Kai looked at Xiang Yin with suspicion in his eyes. This was the person Xiang Yin had met a few times. Why was she so cold?
Xiang Yin received Zhong Kai’s silent question and could not help but feel helpless. He coughed uncomfortably.
He had indeed seen Gu Man a few times and they had even been through life and death together. Who knew that Gu Man would still be so distant from him?
It seemed like he had to create more opportunities to interact with her in the future. Otherwise, he was sure that she might forget about him after a while.
“Gu Man, I showed Xiang Yin your paper a few days ago. He also clapped his hands and praised you. It can be seen that you are indeed talented in physics. Keep it up!” Zhong Kai said excitedly.
“Okay.” Gu Man replied.
When Xiang Yin heard this, the corners of his lips curled up.
He thought to himself that Gu Man really cherished her words like gold. She did not even know how to be humble in the face of praise. Those who did not understand her would think that she was so arrogant.
Gu Man saw that Xiang Yin was smiling and frowned slightly. What was he smiling about?
Sensing their gazes, Zhong Kai deliberately asked, “The two of you are exchanging glances. Do you know each other?”
When Zhuang Yan heard Zhong Kai’s words, she looked at Gu Man and then at Xiang Yin. Did they exchange glances? In the end, she looked at Xiang Yin questioningly.
Xiang Yin was helpless. Seeing that Gu Man did not answer, he could only say ambiguously, “I’ve heard a lot about you! I saw the video the day before yesterday. Gu Man even saved a student who was being held hostage.”
“Oh, there’s such a thing? Student Gu Man is good at both martial arts and literature.” Zhong Kai praised again.
Zhuang Yan said angrily, “Alright, Senior, if you continue, you’ll praise Gu Man so much she’s going to start flying.”
“Haha, I’m telling the truth.”
“Indeed.” Xiang Yin couldn’t help but nod.
Gu Man did not expect Xiang Yin to answer as well and was somewhat surprised.
She felt that Xiang Yin was different this time. He spoke and made more expressions than usual.
When Zhuang Yan heard Xiang Yin’s answer, she frowned. She felt that Xiang Yin had a strange feeling for Gu Man. Could it be that he liked Gu Man?
When Zhuang Yan thought of this, she immediately disliked Xiang Yin.
Looking at Xiang Yin, he had a handsome appearance and looked as elegant as a prince. He also exuded the domineering aura of a superior. These were the basics of a domineering president. Girls nowadays like this type.
Zhuang Yan looked at Gu Man again. Fortunately, Gu Man did not seem to be affected, so she was slightly relieved.
Zhong Kai’s regretful words interrupted Zhuang Yan’s thoughts. “I originally wanted to stay in Han City this weekend to admire the scenery. Unfortunately, I’m busy.”
Zhuang Yan said, “That’s easy. Set aside more time when you come next time. I guarantee that you’ll be happy in Han City.”
