Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ziyu cried even harder at Gu Qingcheng’s accusation.
“Yes… I’m sorry…”
Gu Qingcheng looked at Ziyu as she sobbed. She didn’t say anything.
She didn’t like others crying, as she wouldn’t allow herself to cry either.
To her, crying wouldn’t change anything.
For a moment, there was only the sound of Ziyu’s sobs in the room.
Ziyu cried for a long time before she stopped. She looked at Zhang Qing unwillingly and said resentfully, “Zhang Qing, you’re a scumbag.”
Zhang Qing opened his mouth but didn’t say a word, as if he knew that he was a scumbag.
Gu Qingcheng glanced at Ziyu and Zhang Qing, and said, “I don’t think Zhang Qing is a scumbag.”
Ziyu looked at Gu Qingcheng in shock. “Principal Gu, you… How can you defend Zhang Qing? I’ve said it very clearly just now. I’m devoted to him, but he’s unsatisfied and cheated on me. If he’s not a scumbag, then what is he?”
Zhang Qing didn’t 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, “Zhang Qing, do you think you’re a scumbag?”
Zhang Qing didn’t 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, “I’m indeed a scumbag. I’m sorry, Ziyu.”
Gu Qingcheng looked at Ziyu again. “I’ll ask you again. Do you think Zhang Qing is a scumbag?”
Ziyu was confused by Gu Qingcheng’s question. She quickly said, “Principal, you just heard Zhang Qing admit that he’s a scumbag. Why are you asking me?” She added, “Zhang Qing is a scumbag, a real scumbag.”
“Did you look in the mirror this morning?” Gu Qingcheng asked Zhang Qing.
Zhang Qing was speechless.
“Are you 1.83 meters tall?” Gu Qingcheng asked.
‘ Zhang Qing was a little confused by Gu Qingcheng’s question, but he answered honestly, “1.75 meters.”
“Then, Zhang Qing, do you think you’re handsome?” Gu Qingcheng asked.
Zhang Qing was taken aback again. He was confused by Gu Qingcheng’s question, but he still said, “Not handsome.” “Do you have a nice voice?” Gu Qingcheng asked.
Zhang Qing was speechless.
“Are your grades good?” Gu Qingcheng continued asking.
Zhang Qing’s grades were at the bottom of the list, but he was able to survive in Royal Dance because of his teacher’s father.
He couldn’t answer Gu Qingcheng’s question.
“Your family gives you a five-figure allowance every month?” Gu Qingcheng asked.
‘ Zhang Qing looked at Gu Qingcheng in shock and shook his head. “I don’t get five figures.”
Gu Qingcheng asked, “Do you have any inheritance waiting for you after you graduate?”
Zhang Qing was dumbfounded. “Principal, I don’t have any of whatever you’re saying. ”
Gu Qingcheng looked straight at Zhang Qing. “You don’t have any of the conditions I just mentioned. What kind of jerk are you?”
Zhang Qing was stunned. He really didn’t understand what Principal Gu meant by asking these inexplicable questions.
Ziyu was also confused by Gu Qingcheng’s questions.
Gu Qingcheng ignored Ziyu and Zhang Qing’s dumbfounded expressions and said to them, “Do you know what kind of scumbag he is?”
Ziyu shook her head.
Zhang Qing shook his head.
“A 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.” Gu Qingcheng shot Zhang Qing a cold look. “What do you mean by scumbag?”
Ziyu stared at Gu Qingcheng in a daze. Hearing her words, she felt that Gu Qingcheng was just short of writing the words “Zhang Qing, you deserve to be called a scumbag” 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, “Ziyu, Zhang Qing, do the two of you have anything else to say?”
Ziyu had been full of resentment and pain towards Zhang Qing, but after hearing Gu Qingcheng’s words, she suddenly realized that Zhang Qing wasn’t a scumbag. At most, he was an immoral ex-boyfriend.
Besides, under Gu Qingcheng’s 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 stepfather’s evil clutches.
She suddenly let go of Zhang Qing’s betrayal. Zhang Qing was not worth her sadness.
“Principal, I’m sorry. I was wrong.” She apologized sincerely. “I’m sorry.” Gu Qingcheng glanced at Ziyu. Seeing that Ziyu was clearly relieved, she knew that her persuasion was effective.
“What about you?” she asked Zhang Qing.
“Principal, I’m sorry.” Zhang Qing apologized. “I will definitely work harder in my dancing and to become an outstanding person.”
After hearing what Ziyu and the others had to say, Gu Qingcheng asked them, “Do you have any other problems to solve? If there is, you should speak out. Let’s talk about everything today. We’re all classmates from the same school.
Don’t become enemies.”
“Principal, I won’t become enemies with Zhang Qing.” No matter what, he’s still my junior. Even if we can’t be lovers, we can still be friends.
When Zhang Qing heard Ziyu’s 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.
“I know I was wrong.” He looked at Ziyu sincerely and apologized. “I’m sorry, Senior Sister.”
When Ziyu heard Zhang Qing’s apology, she forced a smile and didn’t say anything.
“Ziyu, stay behind.” Gu Qingcheng put down her teacup. “Zhang Qing, go do what you need to do.”
Zhang Qing quickly left the room.
“Tell me about your family,” 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.
“What do you think?”
“I…” I just feel so bad for my mother, but I don’t understand why she’s still so loyal to my stepfather even though she was beaten up and went to the emergency room. She…”
Gu Qingcheng stood up and walked over to her desk. She took out a business card and handed it to Ziyu.
“Take your mother to see this psychiatrist. Ask Vice-principal Li to reimburse the consultation fee and see if your mother has Stockholm syndrome.”
Ziyu took the business card and looked at the psychiatrist’s name on it. She said, “What is Stockholm syndrome?”
“It’s when the victim developd feelings for the perpetrator.” Gu Qingcheng told Ziyu. “You can consult a psychiatrist about the details. She’ll tell you.” Ziyu stood up and bowed in admiration and gratitude. “Thank you, Principal.’
“You’re my student. It’s only right that I care about you. I’m responsible for the care of all the students of Royal Dance.” Gu Qingcheng was straightforward. “I still have something to do. You can leave now.”
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, “You’re disobedient.
You’ve been eavesdropping.”
Huo Xuan was discovered by his mother. She opened the door and walked out obediently.
Gu Qingcheng waved at Huo Xuan gently. “Come, let Mommy hug you.”
Huo Xuan jogged to his mother’s side.. After being hugged by his mother, he looked up at her and asked, “Mommy, is Daddy a scumbag?”
