Xingren's lips curled up in a smirk seeing Gu Zhang's shocked and dazed expressions after hearing Xu Nuan's icy cold words. She doesn't even need to do anything, Xu Nuan is doing all the work.
She took the opportunity and snatched the phone from his hand that was on the speaker and threw the set of questions at her, " Xu Nuan, be honest, how did you top the exam? You didn't even finish your exam and left the examination hall in the middle. How can that be possible?"
"Did Han Zihao help you? Did he bribe the dean to forge the results or bought the question paper for you? Tell the truth. There is no way you can top the exam with your abilities. If you co clean now, father and I can help you to solve this problem. We're family after all," she said while clutching the phone tight in her hands, wearing worried expressions on her face.
She was wanting to ask this question since the result has been out but didn't get the chance to do so. Today when she heard that Gu Zhang is planning to call Xu Nuan, she approached him and made him put the phone on speaker, wanting to hear what they're gonna talk about.
After getting the chance, she was planning to face Xu Nuan and show the truth to Gu Zhang and everyone. However, rather than getting flustered and responding to her question, she only heard a beep sound because rather than arguing with her, Xu Nuan hung up the phone.
"....."
Huh? Did she hang up the phone? Ho...How dare she!!
Her face turned crimson upon seeing the way Xu Nuan humiliated her by not responding to her questions. This girl...she has beco quite bold. Who would have thought that the girl from the orphanage who was quiet to the point that no one can tell her presence at the ho can speak to this point?
She speaks as if she is soone different. She pursed her lips, feeling strange about Xu Nuan's attitude.
" Xingren, what do you an by that? Cheating? Do you think Xu Nuan cheated to top the exam? But how can she…." Gu Zhang asked in confusion, wondering why Xinregn is claiming sothing like that.
Xingren pursed her lips and her eyes turned soft before she spoke, " Dad, do you rember Xu Nuan's scorecard in high school? She barely managed to graduate from school. She is not only bad at English but Maths, science, everything. And in the scholarship exam, it has questions from all fields and the level of complexity was the topmost."
" How can she top the exam without using shady ans? And don't you rember how Han Zihao claid her to be his girlfriend? I am sure he must have used his ways to get her that position." She said, making Gu Zhang's expressions turn complicated.
Cheating? He didn't think about it before, but now think about it, Xu Nuan can't score this much without using anything shady considering her record. Did she cheat in the exam as Xingren is saying?
Xingren was content to see Gu Zhang's chaotic state. Xu Nuan might have achieved the topmost position, but how can she get away after snatching her position? She was the one who worked hard to get the scholarship yet she took that position from her, using her cheap tricks.
"Dad, I am just worried about Xu Nuan. She is of the sa age as , but she is going astray. How can she think of cheating in an exam? If this gets out, the na of the Gu family will be ruined. After all, Xin Lin University is the country's most popular and respected institution."
Xingren's words were putting Gu Zhang in deep thought. She was right. If this gets out, the consequences will be severe and harmful for the Gu enterprises too.
" I can't believe she can do sothing like this. How can she be involved with Han Zihao and do such a shady thing? Dad, do you think...she...she is in that kind of relationship with Han Zihao? What if he is just playing with her and will throw her away after getting his ways with her?" She said while looking at Gu Zhang in worry.
Her words made Gu Zhang's expressions turn dark and gloomy. Now that he thinks about it, it's possible for Han Zihao to treat Xu Nuan as just a playtoy and not a potential partner, after all, what qualities does she bear to be the future, Mrs. Han?
The situation is quite worriso indeed.
" Xingren, you're such a nice girl. After listening to that brat's harsh words, you're still worried about her. You're right. There is no way she can get to this position on her own. She wasn't even focusing on her studies in the last few months after all. How can she do that while working?" He said while pondering about how to address this situation.
This is a serious matter after all.
-
After hanging up the phone, Xu Nuan sighed deeply and rubbed her temples that were now throbbing due to the headache.
'Why is everyone trying to increase her blood pressure today? Can't she have a peaceful mont?'
Annoyed at what just happened, she put her phone on the table and took a sip of her coffee whose ice has now lted.
" Damn it. I will not forget Gu's for ruining my coffee." She cursed under her breath while drinking the watery coffee with a gloomy face. After so many things happened and openly going against her during the eting, Gu Zhang has the guts to act like her father? Shaless.
Before hanging up the phone, she heard Xingren's voice, however, she couldn't be bothered to listen to what she was saying, so she hung up the phone. Who has ti to listen to her petty words?
As she was trying to enjoy her ice-watery coffee, her phone rang again. A few creases appeared on her forehead and her lips pursed in a thin line as she stared at her ringing phone.
Is it Gu Zhang again? Or Xingren?
" I will not show them politeness if they tried to pick a fight with again," she mumbled before picking up the phone and said without looking at the screen irritatedly, " Now what? You should know that our relationship is not the sa as before. Do you think it's inappropriate for you to keep bothering with your so-called care that I don't need?" she asked harshly.
She knows her words might sound harsh to him but she wasn't in the mood to play a good daughter card a bit. Unlike Xingren, she was least interested in the petty wealth of Gu's. She is Jiang Yue, she will build her empire. It can take so ti but she doesn't need their petty wealth to satisfy her desires.
She was expecting a perplexed and annoyed voice of Gu Zhang, but to her surprise, she heard a low-stiff voice from the other side, " Is soone bothering you? Who is it, is it that boy Yuhan?"
