183 The Two School Belles Meet
Gu Rou went straight to the washroom. As soon as she closed the door, she realized that her fists were clenched. She leaned against the wall and took a few deep breaths before she felt better.
Gu Man’s actions just now had embarrassed her. She really wanted to slap her a few times to vent her anger.
What was even more hateful was why was Bai Yun protecting Gu Man? Which part of Gu Man was better than her? She had no family background, no EQ, and her IQ was even worse. In terms of looks, she was better than Gu Man.
Gu Rou sat on the toilet lid and gritted her teeth, but she could not vent her anger.
After a long time, she finally calmed down. She walked out of the sink in the outer room and carefully touched up her makeup in the mirror.
“Miss Gu Rou?” A surprised voice sounded from the side.
Gu Rou looked over. It was two girls of Gu Man’s age. They were looking at her in surprise.
“You are?”
“We’re students from Han City First High School. We’re in the same grade as Gu Man. My name is Mo Qing, she’s my classmate Wei Wei,” Mo Qing introduced excitedly.
Gu Rou immediately smiled and said gently, “I see. Han City First High School is also my alma mater. You can call me senior.”
Mo Qing said happily, “Senior, I’ve long heard that you’re a student of Han City First High School. Back then, you even went to Zhong Chu University to study with a high score in the art examination. Now, you’re going to represent Han City in the competition. You’re really our role model. Moreover, I’ve heard that you were the school belle of our school back then. Let me tell you, Wei Wei is also the school belle of our school now.”
Gu Rou glanced at Wei Wei. She was indeed beautiful, but she was not as good-looking as Gu Man. However, Gu Rou automatically ignored this understanding and pretended to be humble. “I’ve embarrassed myself in front of you. I think you guys are far better than me back then.”
“Senior, you’re too humble. You’ve achieved so much, yet you’re still so humble. You’re really worlds apart from Gu Man. Gu Man is simply a hooligan…”
When Mo Qing saw Gu Rou looking over, she realized that she was bad-mouthing her senior’s sister in front of her senior, so she quickly shut her mouth.
However, Gu Rou squeezed out a trace of sadness on her face. “Gu Man used to live in the countryside and is different from the people who grew up in the city. I hope you can care more about her.”
Although Wei Wei was surprised to be able to get so close to Gu Rou, she acted very reservedly. She smiled and said, “If we can care about her, of course we will.”
“That’s good. Can I add you on WeChat? If you think it’s necessary, you can tell me about Gu Man in school. She doesn’t even want to talk to me, and I don’t know what to do.” Gu Rou took out her phone and asked tentatively.
Mo Qing quickly took out her phone and added Gu Rou as a friend.
After adding her as a friend, Mo Qing danced happily and promised, “I’ll definitely help you pay more attention to Gu Man in the future. I’ll send you a message if anything happens.”
Wei Wei said, “We’ll know the results of the second mock examination on Monday. We’ll send it to you immediately.”
Gu Rou thanked them repeatedly. “Okay, thank you.”
Gu Rou finished touching up her makeup. “I’ll go out first. They might be looking for me.”
Wei Wei quickly said, “Senior, go ahead. You’re the main character of the banquet now. If you stay here any longer, the people outside will be anxious.”
“Alright, I’ll go out first. I’ll leave Gu Man in your hands.” With that, Gu Rou walked out elegantly.
Mo Qing immediately gossiped with Wei Wei, “The difference between these two sisters is too great. Indeed, if they come from different stomachs, they won’t be similar.”
“Gu Man is just an adopted daughter. How can she compare to Gu Rou?” Wei Wei’s tone was filled with disdain.
“I’m looking forward to Monday so that I can take revenge on her for chasing us out of the classroom during the last exam,” Mo Qing said with a sinister smile.
“She still has a bet with Han Yi. I want to see what she’ll do then. If she gets expelled, we’ll have our revenge.”
At this point, Wei Wei felt much happier.
“That’s right. I’ve never looked forward to Monday so much.” Mo Qing smiled.
With that, the two of them walked out together.
