198 Dozing During Class
As soon as Gu Man reached the school gate, she saw a familiar figure from afar.
Zhong Yao?
She was wearing Han City First High School’s uniform and standing by the school gate with Gu Rou, attracting the attention of the students from Han City First High School.
Gu Man had planned to follow the crowd, but unexpectedly, Gu Rou saw her and waved. “Gu Man.”
Gu Man still wanted to pretend not to hear her, but the two of them actually followed her quickly.
When Gu Rou, who was wearing high heels and a long dress, caught up to Gu Man, she was already panting slightly. She asked Gu Man angrily, “Gu Man, are you deliberately pretending not to hear us calling you?”
“Yes, on purpose.”
After Gu Man finished speaking, she looked up and saw Gu Rou’s expression darken.
“You…” Gu Rou felt that she must have been unlucky for her to be so ticked off so early in the morning.
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Zhong Yao said obediently, “Cousin Gu Man, I came to Han City First High to study. I’ll be your classmate in the future. You won’t not welcome me, right?”
Gu Man nodded and said perfunctorily, “Welcome, new schoolmate.”
Zhong Yao and Gu Rou’s expressions changed. Gu Man asked impatiently, “So, why are you looking for me?”
Gu Rou calmed herself down before saying, “Where are you staying now? Dad and the others are very worried about you. We hope that you can go home and stay until after the college entrance examination.”
“No need.” Gu Man turned around and left.
Gu Rou couldn’t help but stomp her feet on the spot.
Zhong Yao said timidly, “Cousin Gu Rou, are we going to school now? Will it be too late if we don’t go in?”
Gu Rou took a deep breath and smiled again. “Let’s go.”
Zhong Yao was assigned to Class Five. Gu Rou and the form teacher of Class Five, Liu Yan, had already spoken, so when Gu Rou brought Zhong Yao to Class Five, Liu Yan was already waiting at the door.
As soon as Liu Yan saw Gu Rou, she went up to her with a smile. “Gu Rou, congratulations on winning the championship.”
Gu Rou also smiled appropriately. “Thank you, Teacher Liu.”
“This is Zhong Yao?”
“Yes.” Gu Rou pulled Zhong Yao over. “This is Teacher Liu, your future form teacher. Hurry up and greet the teacher.”
Zhong Yao nodded sweetly at Liu Yan. “Hello, Teacher Liu.”
Liu Yan patted Zhong Yao’s shoulder. “Okay.” Then, she turned to Gu Rou and said, “Then we’ll go to the classroom first.”
The students in the classroom were already craning their necks to look out. When they saw Gu Rou, they were in an uproar.
“Princess Guzheng, who is that new classmate of hers?”
“Don’t tell me it’s her sister again? Gu Man is her sister. It wasn’t easy to chase her away. Don’t let another one come.”
As soon as Liu Yan entered, the class fell silent. “Welcome our new classmate, Zhong Yao.”
When Zhong Yao sat down, everyone started asking questions. They only found out that she was Gu Rou’s cousin after asking. A classmate asked, “Are you making up for Gu Man’s previous shortcomings? Gu Man used to hit people. Don’t tell me you’re the same?”
Zhong Yao blushed and said, “I won’t be like her.”
Seeing Zhong Yao’s timid and bored expression, the students present were not interested in teasing her anymore.
Gu Man finally dozed off in class. Although she was quite tired, the main reason was that the class was too simple and she was so bored that she fell asleep.
Gu Man lowered her head skillfully. She supported her head with one hand and held a pen with the other. From the teacher’s point of view, she was taking notes seriously.
However, her deskmate, Xiao Xiao, knew that she was sleeping. She poked Gu Man’s hand with her finger and said softly, “Gu Man, stop sleeping. This class is very important. Listen carefully.”
“No need.” Gu Man seemed to have developed a new skill. Even if she was asleep, she could tell what they were talking about.
Xiao Xiao said quietly, “We’ll know about last week’s mock exam results this afternoon. Maybe we’ve improved.”
“Mm.”
“Gu Man, if you listen to class like this, even if you improve this time, you’ll still fall next time.”
“Stop, don’t disturb me.” Gu Man had no choice but to wake up. She looked at Xiao Xiao with a headache.
Xiao Xiao looked at Gu Man’s obviously unhappy face and quickly said, “Um, deskmate, continue sleeping. I won’t disturb you anymore.”
