Chapter 388 - 388: Late
Huang Jue pouted aggrievedly. Seeing Huang Jun raise his hand again, he hurriedly nodded in agreement.
“I definitely won’t say it in front of her, but what if Sis insists on tutoring me? Won’t 1 get worse and worse?”
“So what? It’s a good opportunity to train your ability to tell right from wrong. You can even help your sister correct her mistakes.”
Huang Jun did not seem to feel that he was biased at all. He spoke logically.
Huang Jue did not dare to make a sound under the pressure. He nodded in agreement.
On the other side, Gu Man looked at Xiang Yin, who had appeared in front of her. She subconsciously quickened her pace, but the car stopped in front of her.
“Why do you avoid me like I’m a monster? Why didn’t you reply to my message?”
Gu Man had her hands in her pockets and no expression on her face. However, when she saw Xiang Yin’s face, she thought of the news and how she had to keep explaining after being misunderstood by everyone.
However, in the face of such a troublesome matter, she did not hate the person involved. In fact, when she saw Xiang Ying, the inexplicable emotions that rose in her heart made her feel unfamiliar and at a loss.
“1 thought 1 did.”
When she said this reason with a straight face, Xiang Yin inexplicably found it funny. He clenched his fists and chuckled.
“Get in the car. I’m free today. I’ll take you to school.”
Looking at the car blocking her way, Gu Man knew that she had no choice but to get into the car. She opened the passenger door and got in. She put on her seatbelt and tilted her head to look at Xiang Yin.
“Let’s drive.”
The car slowly started. Xiang Yin did not speak along the way, and Gu Man would not take the initiative to speak. She closed her eyes and rested in the car for a while. Not long after, she arrived at school.
Gu Man thanked him softly and let go of her seatbelt. She opened the car door and got out.
Xiang Yin watched Gu Man leave and did not drive away. Instead, he stopped there.
It wasn’t until she completely disappeared from his sight that the car slowly started up again and disappeared from the school gate. Zhong Yao saw this scene.
She had only seen Gu Man’s figure by chance and sized up the car a few times. She happened to see the handsome face inside through the gap in the car window. Thinking of the recent news, she almost immediately guessed this person’s identity.
The four great families were existences that she could never reach. Zhong Yao hesitated for a long time and finally decided to walk in Xiang Yin’s direction. However, before she could reach, the car had already driven away slowly.
Looking at the departing car, she only felt regret in her heart. Why didn’t she hurry up just now?
The next time she saw him, she had to go forward and greet him. She just wanted to understand Cousin’s recent situation. Xiang Yin would definitely not chase her away. Perhaps she could take the opportunity to get closer to him.
As Zhong Yao thought of this, she seemed to have the scene of it happening. The corners of her mouth could not help but curl into a smile.
When Gu Man arrived at the classroom, she was a little stunned to see the person standing on the podium.
Finally, she looked up at the class schedule and realized that there was Chinese morning reading.
Because of the delay in the morning, she was already a few minutes late.
However, Gu Man did not care. She raised her feet and walked into the classroom. However, when she turned the corner, she was stopped by a clear voice.
“Gu Man.”
When Gu Man heard the voice, she subconsciously turned around and saw Jiang Zi standing on the podium, looking in her direction with a faint smile.
However, at this moment, the watch on her wrist suddenly vibrated violently. Gu Man did not check and only looked up at Jiang Zi. Her eyes revealed confusion, as if she was asking what was wrong.
Jiang Zi looked at Gu Man’s gaze and felt inexplicably amused. He had specially found out yesterday that this girl’s name was Gu Man and she had even obtained first place in the previous exam.
However, her behavior did not seem like she had the consciousness of being the top student in the cohort, just like him.
Jiang Zi’s eyes were filled with interest. He sized Gu Man up until he saw impatience in her eyes. Then, he slowly said, “You’re late..”
