Chapter 745: Teacher Zhou Is Here Again
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Zi nodded, but it was the first time she had seen Su Shen behave so pettily. However, she was pleased, as his thoughts coincided with hers. If she had known that the person knocking at the door was Teacher Zhou, she would not have opened it. Teacher Zhou’s actions towards Su Li had already angered her.
Gu Zi felt that although Su Shen was not the type to hold grudges over trivial matters, he was very particular about her affairs. He would not ask her to step back or be magnanimous without reason. This had scored him significant points in Gu Zi’s heart.
The next day, as noon approached, the doorbell rang. Gu Zi knew that Teacher Zhou had come again. Coincidentally, Grandma Gao was there, having tea and chatting with her. Gu Zi explained the situation to Grandma Gao and asked her to help deal with it.
Grandma Gao, aware of the circumstances, was not fond of Teacher Zhou. Her tone was impatient, but she maintained her composure, “What do you want?”
Teacher Zhou’s mouth twitched at the corners, but seeing a well-dressed elderly woman before her, she dared not vent her frustration. She could only bear it and say, “Madam, I am here to see Gu Zi. Is she in?”
Grandma Gao squinted her eyes, sizing her up for a moment. Her intense gaze made Teacher Zhou’s scalp tingle before she finally spoke, “Looking for Gu Zi? Unfortunately, she’s out running errands. She asked me to help look after the child at home, so I came over. You should come another day.”
With that, Grandma Gao turned and walked away. Teacher Zhou watched her elegant figure retreat, feeling no admiration, only frustration. How could Gu Zi not be home again? It must be intentional!
Ever since she became a teacher at the First Bilingual Primary School, when had she ever been so humiliated? If it weren’t for the fact that she needed the child’s parents’ forgiveness to return to work, she wouldn’t have come to endure this humiliation.
Teacher Zhou gripped the iron gate, grinding her teeth in anger. She wished she could smash the door open to see if Gu Zi was really not home or just pretending. But in the end, she could only think about it. She dared not make a scene here. If things got out of hand, she would be the one to suffer. So, Teacher Zhou had no choice but to leave amidst the barking of the dog.
