Chapter 424: Choosing Herbs

“If you don’t want to watch movies, we still want to watch movies. Senior year is so stressful. What’s wrong with watching a movie?”

“You’re quite good at pretending. Can’t you move outside to do work?”

Their words exposed the loopholes in Wei Wei’s words. Her initial self-righteousness became unreasonable at this moment. She was no longer angry, and the scene gradually became awkward.

Jiang Zi, who was standing at the door, finally had the responsibility of a teacher and spoke up to mediate this farce.

“Alright, the three students from class one, you can go back now. If you have any problems with me, feel free to mention it to the Year Head.”

Although Jiang Zi was talking to the three students, his gaze was on Gu Man.

This student seemed to be quite interesting.

Now that they had a way out, the three of them naturally wouldn’t refuse. Wei Wei fiercely pulled off her hand and let it fall to her side. She couldn’t use any strength anymore. She ran away miserably. Her figure was as miserable as it could be.

Jiang Zi smiled and knocked on Gu Man’s table.

“Student Gu, come with me to the office.”

After arriving at the office, there was no one else. Jiang Zi sat on the chair and stared in Gu Man’s direction. He sized her up before saying.

“Student Gu, have you done any research on computers?”

As she said this, Jiang Zi kept staring at Gu Man, unwilling to miss the slightest expression on her face.

However, Gu Man’s face did not change much. She still looked the same.

“No.”

Gu Man’s words were especially resolute. For a moment, Jiang Zi suspected his judgment. How could he think that a third-year student was Eel?

Perhaps it was because he had not had any clues for too long recently that he was a little frustrated. Anyone he looked at seemed like Eel.

“It’s fine. You can go back first. Thank you for today’s matter.”

Jiang Zi paused. Although he felt that Gu Man had spent most of the time watching the show, she still stood up for him. Jiang Zi was not the kind of person who did not know how to repay kindness, so he still expressed his gratitude.

Gu Man shook her head and left the office with her hands in her pockets.

The reason why she did not admit her identity just now was because Gu Man had considered her grudge with them. She did not really want to be posted online again.

Therefore, it was better to get along slowly in reality and expose her identity when the time came.

There was not much commotion in the afternoon until school ended.

Gu Man looked at the familiar car parked outside the school, opened the car door, and got in.

There was another very important thing today, and that was to go to Cui Lin’s small pharmacy to get the herbs.

Xiang Yin was a responsible chauffeur. Perhaps because he had received the news early, Cui Lin stood at the entrance and waited for them.

However, the expression on his face did not look like a welcome at all. Instead, it was filled with resentment.

Seeing Gu Man get out of the car, he could not help but speak sarcastically.

“You exchanged such a simple piece of information for my precious medicinal herbs. It’s really worth it.”

Gu Man raised her eyebrows. “Are you going back on your word?”

Before Cui Lin could defend himself, he felt a cold gaze from behind.

He had yet to speak!!!

“No, go ahead.”

In any case, she was going to pick ordinary medicinal herbs. As for those precious medicinal herbs, he had already packed them up.

However, even ordinary medicinal herbs would inevitably make Cui Lin’s heart ache.

However, the indistinct gaze behind him forced him to smile.

When she arrived at the pharmacy and looked at the medicinal herbs placed inside, Gu Man knew that Cui Lin had definitely put away the precious medicinal herbs. The last time she came, those medicinal herbs were not so ordinary.

“Is this all that’s left of these herbs?”

Although Cui Lin was puzzled by Gu Man’s question, he still nodded firmly.

Even if this was not all of it, he had to admit that this was all that was left. It was just a piece of news. How could it be sold for hundreds of thousands of yuan?

Gu Man smiled and stared at Cui Lin without saying anything.

Although there was something wrong with his gaze, Cui Lin was already prepared to deny it.

Although he did not admit it, there would always be someone who would expose him, such as Xiang Yin..
