Just as Zhai Wan'er's face touched the fountain water, at that critical moment, a slender, fair hand grabbed Zhai Wan'er's hand.

With a slight effort, Gu Qingqing pulled her up, preventing a tragic suicide due to love.

"Don't do anything foolish! Why commit suicide over love?!" Gu Qingqing wasn't good at comforting people, especially women.

Before transmigrating into the book, she practiced martial arts and lived with a group of men, rarely having contact with women.

Fortunately, she watches a lot of TV and knows how to deal with innocent-looking people and manipulative women.

"Ah! You're crazy! Why are you saving me? Mind your own business! You're such a pushover! I need you to save me!"

"I just want to die! He doesn't love me! He won't even see me once! Waaah..."

"I love him! I love him so much! You don't understand love! You don't understand anything! You don't deserve love! Why did you save me... Waaah..."

Zhai Wan'er was so angry that she sat down on the edge of the pool, struggling and crying as she tried to jump into the pool again.

You don't understand love!

Your whole family doesn't understand love!

I think Fahai doesn't understand love!

Good deeds go unrewarded!

This is infuriating!

Gu Qingqing really wanted to raise her fist and give Zhai Wan'er a good beating, to teach her the consequences of offending people with careless words.

However, she is Zhai Shaolin's younger sister. Although she is the third female lead and has few scenes, she has a very noble status and a rather important position.

In other words, this is someone Gu Qingqing cannot afford to offend.

The Zhai family is a wealthy and prominent family in the capital.

The Gu family barely managed to squeeze into the bottom of high society, lacking the strength to contend with the Zhai family.

At least for now, we can't afford to offend them, but... that doesn't mean we can't in the future.

Because Zhai Wan'er and Dong Shu have a very good relationship, after all, they have been best friends for more than ten years. After An Susu interfered and stole Zhai Shaolin, Zhai Wan'er helped Dong Shu a lot.

Unfortunately, the scheming An Susu is the main female character in the book, possessing the protagonist's invincible aura.

The author is her own mother; everyone she hates is eliminated and disappears from the world.

Just like cockroaches, they're impossible to kill; one after another comes along.

"Fine! Go ahead and die if you want!" Gu Qingqing grinned, immediately let go of his hand, and even slapped it twice, as if he was disgusted that there was something dirty on his hand. His movements were clean, neat, handsome and charming.

"You..." Zhai Wan'er stared wide-eyed, unable to believe the scene before her. Her face was covered in tears, and most of her makeup was ruined. She looked so ugly that she was no longer the noble and beautiful Miss Zhai she had just been.

She burped a couple of times, her eyes revealing a complex expression—anger, sadness, and a touch of shyness.

How dare this strange girl look down on her? And even tell her to die?

No one had ever dared to treat her like this since she was a child. Her elders doted on her, her friends flattered her, and strangers fawned over her.

But I've never met anyone who dislikes or disrespects me like this girl in front of me.

Even if she was the one who saved him just now, she could still be considered half a savior.

"Didn't you say you were going to die? Go ahead and do it! I'm waiting to see if you look beautiful as you drown. After all, a kind girl like you would be beautiful even if you were to die!"

But last time I saw a girl commit suicide by drowning. She died a horrible death; you can't imagine how pitiful and ugly she was. Her whole body was swollen, she was as fat as a 300-400 pound person. Her tongue was sticking out, and her eyes were wide open, as if they were about to pop out. I was so scared my legs were shaking. Her face was swollen and white, like a ghost…”

Gu Qingqing's gaze was cold, her lips curled up, and she let out a series of chilling laughs.

Her sinister smile made Zhai Wan'er's already fair face turn almost transparent with fright.

"Stop talking! It's terrifying! Shut up! Don't say it! Waaaaah..."

"Ah! No! I don't want to die! I don't want to become ugly! Waaah..."

Zhai Wan'er, her hands groping haphazardly at her face, trembled with fear and felt a chill run down her spine at the thought of what she would look like if she actually drowned.

"Hehehe—" He had successfully pranked Zhai Wan'er and witnessed her embarrassing moment.

Gu Qingqing laughed heartily, then turned and left.

When Zhai Wan'er came to her senses and realized she had been pranked and made a joke, she turned around to look at Gu Qingqing's spot and found it empty.

"You bastard! How dare you bully me! I will never let you get away with this!"

This was the first time in her life she had been bullied and felt so humiliated. She was determined not to let that girl get away with it.

Zhai Wan'er was so angry that her face was twisted and ferocious, her eyes flashing with a cold light, and her sharp nails dug into the soft flesh of her palms, but she did not feel any pain at all.

...

Unaware that someone was thinking about her, Gu Qingqing returned to the classroom for class.

Now that she's at school, she's determined to be a good student—no skipping classes, no being late, no leaving early, and no taking leave.

When An Susu returned and saw Gu Qingqing sleeping on her desk, her irritation and anger subsided slightly.

You can't make a good impression on someone who's hopeless!

It takes three years to learn good habits, but only three days to learn bad ones!

Besides, Gu Qingqing hasn't studied properly for a single day in three years, so how could she possibly get full marks in all subjects in her graduation exam a month from now?

What a huge joke!

For a student who consistently scores zero on an exam, even studying frantically for a short period and barely managing to get a passing grade of 60 is difficult enough, let alone a perfect score in all subjects.

She still prefers to sleep, and even if she doesn't skip class or ask for leave, she still looks like a slacker who doesn't like to study.

It must have been her brother forcing her to study, not her own desire to study hard. Otherwise, if her brother had cut off her allowance, she would have been driven to desperation and only then agreed to get a perfect score on the graduation exam, all for the sake of money.
