Ziyu cried even harder at Gu Qingchengâs accusation.
âYes⦠Iâm sorryâ¦â
Gu Qingcheng looked at Ziyu as she sobbed. She didnât say anything.
She didnât like others crying, as she wouldnât allow herself to cry either.
To her, crying wouldnât change anything.
For a moment, there was only the sound of Ziyuâs sobs in the room.
Ziyu cried for a long time before she stopped. She looked at Zhang Qing unwillingly and said resentfully, âZhang Qing, youâre a scumbag.â
Zhang Qing opened his mouth but didnât say a word, as if he knew that he was a scumbag.
Gu Qingcheng glanced at Ziyu and Zhang Qing, and said, âI donât think Zhang Qing is a scumbag.â
Ziyu looked at Gu Qingcheng in shock. âPrincipal Gu, you⦠How can you defend Zhang Qing? Iâve said it very clearly just now. Iâm devoted to him, but heâs unsatisfied and cheated on me. If heâs not a scumbag, then what is he?â
Zhang Qing didnât expect Gu Qingcheng to speak up for him. He looked at her with joy in his eyes.
Ignoring Ziyu, Gu Qingcheng turned to Zhang Qing and asked, âZhang Qing, do you think youâre a scumbag?â
Zhang Qing didnât expect Gu Qingcheng to question him now, even though she had just spoken up for him.
He thought about what he had done and admitted truthfully, âIâm indeed a scumbag. Iâm sorry, Ziyu.â
Gu Qingcheng looked at Ziyu again. âIâll ask you again. Do you think Zhang Qing is a scumbag?â
Ziyu was confused by Gu Qingchengâs question. She quickly said, âPrincipal, you just heard Zhang Qing admit that heâs a scumbag. Why are you asking me?â She added, âZhang Qing is a scumbag, a real scumbag.â
âDid you look in the mirror this morning?â Gu Qingcheng asked Zhang Qing.
Zhang Qing was speechless.
âAre you 1.83 meters tall?â Gu Qingcheng asked.
â Zhang Qing was a little confused by Gu Qingchengâs question, but he answered honestly, â1.75 meters.â
âThen, Zhang Qing, do you think youâre handsome?â Gu Qingcheng asked.
Zhang Qing was taken aback again. He was confused by Gu Qingchengâs question, but he still said, âNot handsome.â âDo you have a nice voice?â Gu Qingcheng asked.
Zhang Qing was speechless.
âAre your grades good?â Gu Qingcheng continued asking.
Zhang Qingâs grades were at the bottom of the list, but he was able to survive in Royal Dance because of his teacherâs father.
He couldnât answer Gu Qingchengâs question.
âYour family gives you a five-figure allowance every month?â Gu Qingcheng asked.
â Zhang Qing looked at Gu Qingcheng in shock and shook his head. âI donât get five figures.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Gu Qingcheng asked, âDo you have any inheritance waiting for you after you graduate?â
Zhang Qing was dumbfounded. âPrincipal, I donât have any of whatever youâre saying. â
Gu Qingcheng looked straight at Zhang Qing. âYou donât have any of the conditions I just mentioned. What kind of jerk are you?â
Zhang Qing was stunned. He really didnât understand what Principal Gu meant by asking these inexplicable questions.
Ziyu was also confused by Gu Qingchengâs questions.
Gu Qingcheng ignored Ziyu and Zhang Qingâs dumbfounded expressions and said to them, âDo you know what kind of scumbag he is?â
Ziyu shook her head.
Zhang Qing shook his head.
âA scumbag is a man who is good at everything except for loving you. He can satisfy all the fantasies a girl has for a man.â Gu Qingcheng shot Zhang Qing a cold look. âWhat do you mean by scumbag?â
Ziyu stared at Gu Qingcheng in a daze. Hearing her words, she felt that Gu Qingcheng was just short of writing the words âZhang Qing, you deserve to be called a scumbagâ on her face.
Zhang Qing was stunned for a while before he realized what Gu Qingcheng was trying to say. He looked extremely embarrassed.
Gu Qingcheng took a sip of tea and asked, âZiyu, Zhang Qing, do the two of you have anything else to say?â
Ziyu had been full of resentment and pain towards Zhang Qing, but after hearing Gu Qingchengâs words, she suddenly realized that Zhang Qing wasnât a scumbag. At most, he was an immoral ex-boyfriend.
Besides, under Gu Qingchengâs questioning, Zhang Qing was useless. It was really not worth her being sad and neglecting her dance practice because of Zhang Qing, a man who lacked any redeeming qualities.
She was especially grateful to Principal Gu for rescuing her from her stepfatherâs evil clutches.
She suddenly let go of Zhang Qingâs betrayal. Zhang Qing was not worth her sadness.
âPrincipal, Iâm sorry. I was wrong.â She apologized sincerely. âIâm sorry.â Gu Qingcheng glanced at Ziyu. Seeing that Ziyu was clearly relieved, she knew that her persuasion was effective.
âWhat about you?â she asked Zhang Qing.
âPrincipal, Iâm sorry.â Zhang Qing apologized. âI will definitely work harder in my dancing and to become an outstanding person.â
After hearing what Ziyu and the others had to say, Gu Qingcheng asked them, âDo you have any other problems to solve? If there is, you should speak out. Letâs talk about everything today. Weâre all classmates from the same school.
Donât become enemies.â
âPrincipal, I wonât become enemies with Zhang Qing.â No matter what, heâs still my junior. Even if we canât be lovers, we can still be friends.
When Zhang Qing heard Ziyuâs words, his expression turned ugly, but he knew that she was right.
He was the one in the wrong for cheating first. Now that Ziyu did not hate him, the guilt and self-reproach in his heart lessened a little.
âI know I was wrong.â He looked at Ziyu sincerely and apologized. âIâm sorry, Senior Sister.â
When Ziyu heard Zhang Qingâs apology, she forced a smile and didnât say anything.
âZiyu, stay behind.â Gu Qingcheng put down her teacup. âZhang Qing, go do what you need to do.â
Zhang Qing quickly left the room.
âTell me about your family,â Gu Qingcheng said, looking at Ziyu.
Ziyu told Gu Qingcheng about the family situation apologetically.
After hearing about Ziyu, Gu Qingcheng felt that it was necessary for her to meet Fu Nanjue.
âWhat do you think?â
âIâ¦â I just feel so bad for my mother, but I donât understand why sheâs still so loyal to my stepfather even though she was beaten up and went to the emergency room. Sheâ¦â
Gu Qingcheng stood up and walked over to her desk. She took out a business card and handed it to Ziyu.
âTake your mother to see this psychiatrist. Ask Vice-principal Li to reimburse the consultation fee and see if your mother has Stockholm syndrome.â
Ziyu took the business card and looked at the psychiatristâs name on it. She said, âWhat is Stockholm syndrome?â
âItâs when the victim developd feelings for the perpetrator.â Gu Qingcheng told Ziyu. âYou can consult a psychiatrist about the details. Sheâll tell you.â Ziyu stood up and bowed in admiration and gratitude. âThank you, Principal.â
âYouâre my student. Itâs only right that I care about you. Iâm responsible for the care of all the students of Royal Dance.â Gu Qingcheng was straightforward. âI still have something to do. You can leave now.â
Ziyu was so touched that she bowed again before leaving.
After Ziyu left, Gu Qingcheng looked into the room and saw something peeking out of the corner of her shirt. Smiling lovingly, she said, âYouâre disobedient.
Youâve been eavesdropping.â
Huo Xuan was discovered by his mother. She opened the door and walked out obediently.
Gu Qingcheng waved at Huo Xuan gently. âCome, let Mommy hug you.â
Huo Xuan jogged to his motherâs side.. After being hugged by his mother, he looked up at her and asked, âMommy, is Daddy a scumbag?â
