Chapter 207: Malicious Speculation

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Do you think the Ji family will become lively again because of this?”

There was a smile in Gu Xiao’s eyes as she leaned against the sofa and looked expectantly at Chu An beside her.

Ever since Ji Gao’s illegitimate son was exposed, Jiang He’s heart could be said to be dead. She no longer paid too much attention to Ji Gao.

However, because her son was currently in the Ji Group, Jiang He had been secretly sending people to monitor Ji Gao’s little lover and illegitimate son. She was afraid that this illegitimate son would appear at any time and snatch the position from her son.

After Ji Gao lost his position as the CEO of the Ji Group, he stayed by Old Master Ji’s side for a long time, hoping that Old Master Ji would take back his order on account of kinship and allow him to enter the Ji Group again.

Jiang He and Ji Gao’s actions temporarily maintained the peace in the Ji family.

However, when the truth of Gu Xiao’s switch was exposed, it could still affect the Ji family to a certain extent.

Chu An chuckled softly. “Naturally, it will be as you wish.”

Even if it couldn’t, for the sake of Gu Xiao, he could splash a bucket of hot oil on Jiang He and the others to make the fire burn even more fiercely.

After all… Xiaoxiao had worked so hard to prepare for the college entrance examination, so it was only right for the Ji family to prepare some entertainment for Xiaoxiao, right?

However, the plot point of “The Return of the Crimson Child” that Gu Xiao and Chu An had envisioned had yet to arrive, but the school opening test mentioned by the form teacher had already arrived as scheduled.

Although Gu Xiao had been busy with the company’s matters, with Chu An’s personal guidance and the fact that she wasn’t stupid, she didn’t fall behind in her studies at all.

Perhaps her results couldn’t compare to Chu An’s, but she could still be ranked in the top few in the class.

Although Gu Xiao and Chu An were very confident in this, the other students who didn’t know what was going on didn’t think so.

In particular, some of the students who were jealous of Gu Xiao’s success in both love and career were secretly looking forward to Gu Xiao’s fall this time so that they could mock her.

“How high do you think Gu Xiao will score this time? Could she manage 400 marks?”

“400? I don’t think it would be even 300! Gu Xiao takes leave every day. She’s either filming or busy with her company. Look at how much time she spent in school in her second and third years. She definitely didn’t study hard!”

“That’s right! The variety shows and television dramas she filmed are indeed not bad, but studying is different. As long as you don’t study for a day, you might fall behind, let alone someone like Gu Xiao, who hasn’t come to study for a long time!”

“But isn’t Chu An’s results very good? I heard that Chu An has been tutoring Gu Xiao. Moreover, Gu Xiao has attended the exam before, right?! Aren’t her results not much lower?”

Surrounded by pessimistic ideas of Gu Xiao, these words immediately attracted the attention of others who wanted to see Gu Xiao make a fool of herself.

Seeing that person’s honest expression, someone sneered.

“There are really people who think that Gu Xiao can take care of both a company and studies! How funny!”

“That’s right! What’s the use of flattering Gu Xiao in private? If you want to flatter her, do it in person! Perhaps Gu Xiao will be happy and support you to debut and become a big star!”

“Hahaha! That’s right. The only people who can still speak up for Gu Xiao now are these people who want to curry favor with Gu Xiao, right? But does Gu Xiao know that you’re currying favor with them behind their backs?”

The bad rumors about Gu Xiao intensified in school. Even those who originally believed in Gu Xiao began to worry about Gu Xiao amidst these rumors.

Even on the day before the school opening test, Chu An inadvertently learned how these students had belittled Gu Xiao in private.

Just as Chu An was furious and wanted to find trouble with those who were badmouthing Gu Xiao in private, he was stopped by Gu Xiao, who had sensed it. “What do you want to do?”

A cold glint flashed across Chu An’s eyes, and there was also a trace of viciousness on his face. He said fiercely, “Of course it’s to prevent them from opening their mouths!”

“Before the results are out, it’s useless to say anything. Moreover, I don’t think they’re telling the truth.” Seeing that Chu An still looked indignant, Gu Xiao spoke again. “Don’t you believe in my ability?”

Hearing this, Chu An hurriedly came back to his senses and hurriedly explained, “Of course not! Of course I believe you! But those people’s words behind your back are too unpleasant!”

“Can’t 1 just not listen? Besides, 1 think it’s more refreshing to use my results to slap their faces!”
