Gu Zhai is very quiet.
It was getting late at this time, but Gu Zuhui and Su Waner were sitting firmly in the hall. When they saw Gu Xiqiao coming in with a calm look on his face, Gu Zuhui was so angry that he threw the cup in his hand and said, "Young girl, stop!"
Gu Xiqiao paused, and when she heard these two words, she fell into a trance.
In the past, her stubborn temper was obviously not her fault, but she would stubbornly continue to argue with Gu Zuhui. She used to think that this was personality and this was the truth. One day, people who misunderstood her would realize their mistakes and look back. It will be good for her if she feels guilty later.
But what she didn't think about was that these people thought from the beginning that she was looking back home just for the sake of the Gu family's wealth. How could people who had always been prejudiced against her, turned a blind eye to everything about her, and never really cared about her? If you give her more attention, why would you feel guilty and pity for her!
Gu Xiqiao slowly twitched the corner of his mouth, raised his head and looked at the furious Gu Zuhui, smiled slightly, and said in an extremely calm voice, "Is something wrong?"
Her eyes were calm, and there was even a faint smile hanging on the corner of her mouth. Her back was straight, and the crystal lamp gave her a faint light.
Gu Zuhui was stunned for a moment and did not react, but Su Waner beside him stood up, her eyes full of ridicule.
"Gu Xiqiao, you have to understand that the Gu family has done their best to take you back! We didn't even ask you to do anything. We just wanted you to learn etiquette well and not embarrass the Gu family. But you did some What? I won’t tell you that you didn’t come home for two days and two nights during the vacation, but you still come home every night after going to school! Your senior year of high school is not far away from the college entrance examination. We don’t even expect you to get into a good school. We only hope that you If you can be serious, be an innocent girl and don’t ruin the reputation of our Gu family!”
The hall was so quiet that the servant wished he could plug his ears.
Gu Xiqiao chuckled, then turned his eyes to Gu Zuhui, "I'm not serious? Do you think so too, dad?"
The last word was spoken so softly that a little wind might blow it away.
This was the first time that Gu Xiqiao called him "Dad". He was her father, her biological father, the person she was closest to in the world. She wanted his approval so much, but was abandoned by him in the end.
Gu Zuhui suddenly didn't know what to say. He simply sat down and waved, "Forget it, go upstairs and study hard in the future. Although our Gu family is a businessman, we are also an innocent family."
In their eyes, their existence has always been a black spot for the Gu family, and this idea has never changed.
Gu Xiqiao raised her head and pushed back the bitterness in her eyes. She didn't say anything, but slowly walked to the landline and dialed Laoban's number, which was quickly connected.
Gu Xiqiao handed the phone to Gu Zuhui, "This is the phone number of our head teacher. He will tell you why I came back so late. You are the elder. I will listen to what you say. However, I hope you can be fair. I am late. Gui, it must be me who is wrong? Am I acting recklessly? In your eyes, is this the kind of person I am?"
She didn't say that the driver left her behind. Since Gu Xijin did this, she must have prepared a way out, so now she can only count on Laoban to say a word or two.
Gu Zuhui and Su Waner obviously didn't expect Gu Xiqiao's words. They were both stunned. Facing that plain face, Gu Zuhui was choked with words of blame.
After the call was connected, Gu Zuhui said a few words to the other party, and his stiff face quickly softened. When he hung up the phone, he looked at Gu Xiqiao with a smile on his face.
He had always thought that Gu Xiqiao was someone who couldn't hold up the wall, but now it seemed that he had merit
"Your class teacher said that you stay here every night to ask questions. You have a very serious study attitude and have made great progress. Yes, this is how family care should be. Although not as good as your sister, you are still very good." Gu Zuhui gave a rare compliment. , "Okay, you go up."
Gu Xiqiao slowly turned around and walked towards the stairs, the blood all over his body was cold.
Behind her, Su Waner saw this scene, looked at Gu Zuhui in disbelief, and then slammed a crystal ashtray.
This matter tonight is a farce with big thunder and small rain!
farce!
Amelia Su was so angry that she was shaking all over, "Gu Zuhui, do you have to get angry with me for this bitch? Do you have to make me angry to death? Why, in your eyes, I am a vicious stepmother, and I don't even have the right to educate her!"
Gu Zuhui's low-pitched apology sounded again and again.
No one noticed that the ashtray thrown away by Su Wan'er flew steadily towards Gu Xiqiao, and suddenly stopped for a few seconds when it was above her head. After she walked a few steps away, the ashtray banged. It fell to the ground with a sound.
After returning to the room, Gu Xiqiao locked the door.
[We won’t do any tasks today, let’s sleep well.]The voice of the system came cautiously.
Gu Xiqiao shook his head, opened the cabinet, took a change of clothes and went into the bathroom, "No need, I will practice calligraphy for two hours today, and then sort out the key points of the Chinese language, but I won't stay in the virtual space for a long time."
Although he was used to such things, Gu Xiqiao couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness when he felt it for real again.
Sure enough, don’t have extravagant hopes.
After taking a shower, Gu Xiqiao forgot about his headache and entered the virtual space to start studying.
In order to distract her attention, the system found an isolated ancient martial arts book, [Beauty Qiao, in order to prevent you from being bullied in the future, I decided to spend some time every day teaching you ancient martial arts. How much you can master depends on your talent!]
"Okay." Gu Xiqiao looked up in the endless space and suddenly thought of a question, "System, how many points do you need to upgrade to level 1?"
[100, does the host want to upgrade me?]The system is very happy.
"... We won't upgrade for the time being." She is still in debt.
[Host, don’t be like this. I will give you rewards for upgrading. When you reach level 1, you will get a 10-frame package. Host, are you really not moved?]
"...not moved."
[…]
Early the next morning, Gu Xiqiao got up and went to class as usual.
Amelia Su was not at the dinner table, so she must have been extremely angry.
For the first time, Gu Zuhui paid attention to Gu Xiqiao, "You are growing up at your age, why do you eat so lightly? Aunt Li, get the second lady a glass of milk."
Gu Xiqiao thanked him with a calm expression, without much fluctuation.
Gu Xijin, who was sitting on the side, suddenly raised her head and glanced at her, her eyes deepening. When Gu Xiqiao noticed her, she blinked and smiled, "Dad is right, sister, when you are growing, you must take good care of yourself." Make up for it.”
Gu Xiqiao finished his meal at this time, took the box of milk handed over by the servant, picked up his schoolbag and turned around to leave.
Behind her, Gu Xijin drank a glass of milk, picked up her schoolbag and went out, catching up with Gu Xiqiao in a few steps.
