106 Being Called Immodest Again
Zhang Yue drank a cup of tea and said slowly, “This is nothing. Although Gu Man has a bad personality, the Gu family still has to care about their reputation.”
Gu Yuan snorted. If not for the sake of the Gu family, he would have wanted to be as ruthless as Gu Zhi had said until she gave in.
“The college entrance examination is in three months. When Gu Man takes the examination and has to go to another city, our Gu family won’t have to care about her anymore.”
Qu Bei looked like she could not care less. She wished Gu Man could disappear from her sight.
“Sister can only get into some local universities. She still needs us to take care of her,” Gu Rou said softly.
Gu Zhi asked loudly, “Didn’t you say that she was going to Zhong Chu University?”
“Aunt, you’ve heard wrongly. We wanted her to stop thinking about Zhong Chu University and get into some local universities, but she refused to listen.” Gu Rou pretended to be helpless.
Zhang Yue frowned. “She’s still stubborn about going to Zhong Chu University?”
“That’s right. I don’t know what Teacher Zhuang is thinking. She keeps encouraging her. Last time, she even brought her out for a meal and said that she wanted her to meet a teacher from Zhong Chu University. I don’t know if that man is really a teacher. Brother Yue, I’m so worried that she’s been deceived.”
Gu Rou thought to herself that Gu Man’s image of seducing men outside must have become even more solid in Zhang Yue’s heart.
Sure enough, Zhang Yue said with a look of disdain, “It’s obvious. How can a teacher from Zhong Chu University look for her for a meal?”
“If that’s really the case, isn’t Gu Man lying?” Gu Rou pretended to be unable to accept it.
“How can there be no such possibility?! It’s getting more and more ridiculous. Why is that Teacher Zhuang letting her do whatever she wants?” Zhang Yue asked curiously.
Gu Rou replied, “I don’t understand either. That Teacher Zhuang is usually very serious in school, but she just loves to interfere in Gu Man’s matters. Do you think she has a motive for being so abnormal?”
“Don’t think too much. At least the teachers of Han City First High School are trustworthy.” Zhang Yue still trusted the teachers of Han City First High School.
“But I have to worry. That Teacher Zhuang also knows about Gu Man’s results. She actually…”
“Alright, in three months, she will be the one whose face hurts. She won’t listen no matter what you say now. Eat.” Gu Yuan interrupted Gu Rou.
“That’s right. Let’s eat. Don’t worry about her. Worry about yourself first. Aren’t you busy participating in the guzheng competition in Han City? I’m waiting for you to win the national championship,” Zhang Yue asked with concern.
“There’s still half a month to prepare. There should still be time. There are many talents in Han City, so I’ll treat it as a chance to learn.”
When Gu Rou heard Zhang Yue mention the guzheng she was good at, she was smug, but she was humble on the surface.
“You were called the Guzheng Princess in university. How bad can you be?!” Zhang Yue encouraged.
“That’s right. Rou’er has won so many awards playing the Guzheng. Now, the living room is filled with her trophies,” Qu Bei said proudly.
Seeing that Zhong Yao was curled up at the side without saying anything, Zhang Yue asked, “Cousin, do you like any instruments?”
“Uh… I, I like the piano, but… I don’t know how to play it.” Zhong Yao lowered her head, her cheeks slightly red.
“What’s there to be shy about if you don’t know how to play the piano? Gu Man doesn’t know anything either.” Qu Bei smiled and said, “If you want to learn, you can look for your cousin, Gu Rou. She knows how to play the piano too.”
“Really? Cousin Gu Rou can play the piano?”
Zhong Yao’s look of admiration made Gu Rou very happy, but she still said humbly, “I know a little. I learned a little during my free time in university.”
“Rou’er, you’re just being humble. Aren’t you teaching a few students about the piano? You can already teach students, why do you say you’re not good?” Zhang Yue said with a smile.
“Our Rou’er is good in every way, but she’s too humble. It’s easy for others to look down on her.” Qu Bei pretended to blame her.
“It’s good to be humble. If only Gu Man was half as humble as you.” Gu Yuan sighed.
“Uncle Gu, I told you, don’t mention Gu Man. It seems like you’re going to have to drink,” Zhang Yue joked.
Hearing Zhang Yue’s words, Gu Yuan immediately laughed out loud. “Look at my memory. Wait for me to drink a cup as punishment.”
