Chapter 36 Confidence or Arrogance
"Gu Ning, come out for a moment."
As soon as the head teacher arrived, he called Gu Ning out. No need to guess, Gu Ning knew it was because of what happened tonight.
As soon as Gu Ning walked out, the head teacher asked in a bad tone, with anger in his eyes: "What happened in the cafeteria? Why did you hurt someone? And why did you accept the challenge from Hao Ran, Qin Zixun, and Zhang Tianping from Class 7? Do you know that this matter has become a big deal now? It will have a very bad impact not only on you, but also on our class."
Gu Ning was not angry at the head teacher's questioning and anger, but calmly explained: "Teacher, it was Gu Xiaoxiao from Class 1 who humiliated me first about the cafeteria incident. Not only did she humiliate me, she also humiliated my mother. How could I bear this anger? As for Haoran and the others, if I refuse, will they let it go? I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future, so it's better to solve it all at once."
Zhang Qiuhua knew about Gu Ning's situation, and she also knew that Gu Ning was often excluded, but since nothing happened, she just didn't care.
It is understandable that Gu Ning would resist.
Although she felt that it was a bit excessive, there was nothing wrong with it, so she couldn't say anything.
However, Zhang Qiuhua still couldn't accept the fact that Gu Ning agreed to challenge Hao Ran: "Gu Ning, can a girl like you beat three boys? Besides, fighting will be punished, and our class will also be criticized."
Hearing this, Gu Ning was a little surprised. She had overlooked the fact that fighting would be punishable, and would also lead to criticism from the entire class.
"But I have already agreed. If I go back on my word, Haoran will take revenge on me." Gu Ning said in embarrassment.
"You...you're really pissing me off to death." Zhang Qiuhua was extremely angry. Although this incident was caused by Gu Ning, Hao Ran was still the main reason, so she couldn't blame Gu Ning entirely.
But if Gu Ning changed her mind and was retaliated by Hao Ran, she would feel guilty. She is not so cold-blooded.
If Haoran really wants to take revenge, even the school can't stop him.
"Teacher, how about this? Haoran and I can go outside the school to fight. This way we won't be punished." Gu Ning said.
"You..." Zhang Qiuhua was still angry: "Gu Ning, how can you be so ungrateful? Are you so sure you can beat Hao Ran and the others? Aren't you afraid that if something happens to you, your mother will be worried? If you get hurt, can your family afford the medical expenses?"
Although Zhang Qiuhua's words were sharp, they were not meant to humiliate him, but were for Gu Ning's own good.
Gu Ning also knew this, so he was not angry, and said confidently: "Teacher, I am sure I can beat Hao Ran and the others, really."
Even so, Zhang Qiuhua really couldn't believe it, but she also knew that pursuing the matter further would lead to no results: "You're on your own!"
After saying that, Zhang Qiuhua ignored Gu Ning and left angrily.
Gu Ning shrugged helplessly and returned to the classroom.
Although the students in the classroom were all listening attentively to Zhang Qiuhua scolding Gu Ning, Zhang Qiuhua's voice was not loud, so they didn't hear it. They only saw Zhang Qiuhua with a furious look on his face, and then he left angrily.
What they couldn't understand was that Gu Ning remained very calm from beginning to end, and didn't feel sad or scared at all because of being scolded.
As soon as Gu Ning entered the classroom, most of the classmates stared at her face, as if they wanted to see a flower in her.
Because the head teacher left, the class was not as quiet anymore. After all, it was not a top class and most of the students were not very self-disciplined.
"Hey, Gu Ning, are you sure you can beat Hao Ran and the others?" The male classmate sitting in front of Gu Ning turned around and asked doubtfully.
"Yes, yes! And it's one against three, you are so courageous!" said another male classmate with a look of admiration.
"He has the ambition, but I don't know if he has the ability." Someone poured cold water on him disdainfully.
"That's right. I see! It's in jeopardy." Another person poured cold water on the idea.
“······”
The classmates were chattering, most of them were distrustful and cold towards Gu Ning. Gu Ning didn't think it was a big deal, but Yu Mixi couldn't help it and refuted for the first time: "I believe Gu Ning, I will definitely win."
Hearing this, Gu Ning's lips curled up slightly. Very good, Yu Mixi has made progress.
"Tsk, if you believe it, you can really win!" a classmate retorted disdainfully.
"That's right! I just don't believe it." said a classmate.
"Won't we know whether we can win or not tomorrow at noon? Isn't it too early for you to deny it now? Be careful to get slapped in the face tomorrow." Yu Mi Xi said unconvinced.
As soon as these words were spoken, the negative voices gradually became fewer, but there were still some who did not take it seriously. However, at this time the head teacher left and the students who wanted to throw cold water on them no longer had the chance.
At Gu's house, in a princess-like dreamy room, Gu Xiaoxiao was wearing a pink nightgown, lying on a big pink bed, holding her phone in her hand, watching the video sent by Chen Ziyao, regretting that she was not there.
Gu Xiaoxiao and Chen Ziyao had almost the same reaction. They were very unhappy with Gu Ning's self-confidence, but they did not believe that Gu Ning was a match for Hao Ran and his friends. Therefore, she was gloating in her heart.
At this moment, she couldn't wait until tomorrow noon to see with her own eyes how horribly Gu Ning was beaten.
Also, she was waiting for Gu Ning to apologize to her, and she would definitely make it very difficult for Gu Ning. If Gu Ning didn't apologize, or didn't satisfy her, then she would definitely ask her grandmother to kick them out of the old house.
The next morning, Gu Xiaoxiao deliberately waited for Gu Ning at the stairs, wanting to take the opportunity to mock her, but she waited for a long time and didn't see Gu Ning, which almost wore out her patience.
"It's almost time for morning reading, but Gu Ning hasn't come yet. Could it be that he's scared and doesn't dare to come to school today?" Gu Xiaoxiao guessed.
"Who knows!" Chen Ziyao couldn't say for sure.
With two minutes left before morning reading, Gu Ning appeared, accompanied by Mu Ke and Yu Mixi.
Seeing Mu Ke, Gu Xiaoxiao and Chen Ziyao became even more dissatisfied and jealous of Gu Ning, because Mu Ke was clearly with them before, but now he is with Gu Ning.
Moreover, Mu Ke's family background is better than theirs, so they still want to be friends with him. But Mu Ke turned against them for Gu Ning.
When they saw Gu Xiaoxiao and Chen Ziyao, they knew they were up to no good, so Mu Ke and Yu Mixi looked unhappy. Gu Ning was the calmest.
"Gu Ning, I heard that you are going to have a duel with the Three Heroes of Peach Garden from Class 7 at noon, and it's one against three. It seems that you are very brave and confident! I just don't know if you are really confident or just conceited?" Gu Xiaoxiao said sarcastically.
