Oh, dear! Fish me again

Chapter 23 Don’t judge people by their appearance

The principal's office is solemn and dignified.

The middle-aged man wore glasses and had a kind and steady look on his face. He sat behind his desk and sighed deeply at the young man in front of him.

"Xiao Chi, have you been going too far recently?"

Gu Chiqi stood straight and shrugged.

"Principal, I didn't do anything."

"I didn't do anything!"

The principal knocked on the table. "You were the one who bullied your classmates in the swimming pool a few days ago? You disrupted the class this morning and scared the teacher away!?"

Gu Chiqi was about to explain, but the principal hadn't finished scolding him yet. He took out a few pieces of paper from the drawer and slapped them in front of him.

"And you dared to hand me a blank paper for your opening exam! Gu Chiqi, do you want me to talk to your aunt?"

"Blank paper?"

How can it be...

Gu Chiqi was completely confused.

He took two steps forward, picked up the test papers and looked through them.

It was blank, but there were still some pen marks on the paper, obviously written with a fading ink pen.

"Principal, I've obviously been tricked..."

"Write it for me! A 2,000-word review, hand it to me tomorrow morning!"

Seeing his reckless attitude, the principal became even more angry and simply sent him away.

Gu Chiqi left the office, frowning in confusion.

Who is so boring?

......

When Gu Chiqi came back from the administrative building, the class was over. The classroom was noisy during the break, but Tang Shu still sat obediently in her seat, reading seriously.

He walked over and sat down, taking a casual glance at the second volume of the English textbook for Grade 12.

In the morning, Tang Shu was reading books for the first year of high school, and now she is reading books for the second year of high school.

"Shushu, why are you looking through these old books?" he asked casually.

Tang Shu did not take her eyes away from the book in her hand, but replied gently,

"Review and consolidate~"

You review so quickly, you deserve to be in the top three in the county!

Gu Chiqi felt a little ashamed and replied dryly, "School has just started, there's no need to be so tense..."

"No way~"

Tang Shu looked up at him, frowning slightly and looking serious, "It's already a great honor for me to be admitted to No. 1 Middle School. My sister has been begging my family for help for a long time. I can't but cherish this opportunity~ I must work harder~"

"Ah."

Gu Chiqi nodded and said nothing more.

Tang Shu is so innocent and well-behaved, those blank papers of his must have nothing to do with her.

He must have been careless and got tricked by someone.

Forget it, I'll be more careful next time.

As they were talking, the bell rang. The teacher was not there for this class, so they were asked to study on their own.

Studying in private classes without a teacher supervising them is a terrifying freedom for students of their age who have no pressure to go to college.

In the whole class, almost all students were doing irrelevant things.

Gu Chiqi put on his headphones and prepared to catch up on his sleep. When he lay down, he glanced at Tang Shu beside him.

She still sat upright. She was extremely beautiful, but she was unaware of it and was only focused on studying.

He looks so cute while looking at the old book in his hand seriously and drawing with a pen from time to time.

The summer afternoon sun was scorching hot, shining through the window glass and just stinging Tang Shu's eyes.

She raised her head from the book, turned to look at the window, and pouted unconsciously.

Ah~ Really good~

Gu Chiqi reflexively picked up a book and held it above his head, just in time to block the light that was blinding Tang Shu.

Tang Shu looked at him in surprise and didn't say anything. She just smiled sweetly at him tacitly.

Gu Chiqi also curled his lips and was in a good mood.

Maintaining this posture, I fell asleep on my stomach.

"Hey, look behind..."

"Tsk..."

The two girls at the door glanced at the back of the classroom and whispered gossipy things to each other.

Tang Jiali in the second row also turned around to take a look.

In the last row by the window, Master Gu was lying down to catch up on his sleep as usual, but his left hand was resting on the edge of the table, holding up a book to block the sun for Tang Shu next to him.

The girl in the front row said sourly,

"Tsk, I thought it was a poor little thing, but it's obviously a little ancestor~"

"That's right, no wonder Master Gu treats her differently, she's so beautiful... Let's not mess with her in the future..."

"I'm not stupid. Even Ming Ruoxi got rejected. How can I be so stubborn?"

After they finished talking, they whispered something to each other, but it was unclear.

Then, they suddenly turned around and looked at Tang Jiali with a smile.

"Jia Li, we are going shopping after school tonight, will you come with us?"

"Ok?"

Tang Jiali was a little flattered.

She had only been in this class for half a month. Although the Tang family was a wealthy family, the girls in the class did not quite accept her, saying that she was from the country and had rustic clothes.

Today he actually took the initiative to invite her shopping. Tang Jiali's eyes turned, thinking it must be because of Tang Shu.

Tang Shu has been tall and pretty since she was a child, and unexpectedly she is even more beautiful now. She showed up in class in the morning and amazed her elder sister who grew up with her.

That’s right, otherwise why would a proud and wealthy young master like Mr. Gu treat him so specially?

Well...I should be nicer to her in the future. She is not useless.

*

So after school, Tang Jiali, who had always kept her distance from Tang Shu, called out to Tang Shu at the school gate for the first time.

"elder sister?"

Tang Shu was surprised, "Didn't you tell me not to look for you?"

Tang Jiali smiled awkwardly, "Xiaoshu, after all, we grew up together. Are you still fussing over a casual remark I made?"

"Of course not, sister, I'm very happy that you took the initiative to talk to me~"

Tang Shu held Tang Jiali's hand affectionately, "Sister, what do you want me to do?"

Tang Jiali took two steps back without leaving a trace, shook off Tang Shu's hand, and glanced at her with disdain.

"Xiaoshu, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're studying at No. 1 Middle School now, so you should pay attention to your attire..."

"Look at your shoes, they are the same old shoes you wore when you were in South City. The same goes for your schoolbag. It's already two years old. Why are you still carrying it? It's so shabby..."

"If others see this, they will definitely think that I am a stingy sister. Please consider my position!"

Tang Shu blinked and apologized cautiously.

"I'm sorry, sister, I didn't think about it, but..."

"Don't say but,"

Tang Jiali took out a transparent shopping bag from her schoolbag and threw it to Tang Shu.

The bag was neither too big nor too small, and it was filled with pink hundred-dollar bills.

Tang Jiali said in a condescending tone, "I just withdrew five thousand from the ATM. Use it to buy some decent clothes... and a new phone. Don't embarrass me."

After saying that, she turned and ran towards the girls waiting on the side.

*

Tang Jiali deliberately gave money to Tang Shu at the school gate after school when the flow of people was the busiest.

Others couldn't hear her disgusted and harsh words, they could only see a bag of money.

Tang Shu could guess what he was thinking with her toes.

Sure enough, the students nearby were all praising her.

"I didn't expect Tang Jiali to be such a nice person. She's so nice to Tang Shu, the adopted daughter."

"Who said it wasn't true? Before, I thought Tang Jiali was rustic and always looked shifty and unpresentable when she looked at people. But now, I think she is much more pleasing to the eye."

"Tang Shu is so pretty, and I heard her grades are top notch. If I had a sister like her, I would be so jealous! But Tang Jiali is not jealous at all, and she is so nice to her. She is really a good person."

"Yes, you can't judge a person by his appearance. Let's be nicer to Tang Jiali in the future."

...

Tang Shu curled her lips and didn't care.

Praise it, the higher the better.

She carefully put away the money, walked a hundred meters to the right, and turned into the alley that was like a watershed.
