Chapter 210: This is Her Duke!
Jin Dafu couldn’t help but ask, "What’s going on, Qibao? He says he’s your husband?"
"Yeah." Gu Qibao nodded, speaking gloomily. "He is my husband, I married him. You should stop calling me Qibao, it’s not appropriate."
Jin Dafu’s face was instantly filled with surprise and then sadness.
Di Mingjue stared at their backs, his eyes becoming bloodshot. "Good, very good, Gu Qibao, so you’ve learnt to fight back, huh?"
After sending Jin Dafu to the medical office, Gu Qibao was summoned by a teacher.
The reason being the blank paper she had turned in a while ago.
It was one thing that she had taken a leave of absence previously, but now that she was back, certain matters obviously needed to be handled.
Besides, the teacher this time was a newcomer who didn’t know Gu Qibao’s background, but was deeply affected by her grades.
With Gu Qibao’s blank answer sheet and past results in hand, the teacher frowned. He put the paper down, looked at her, and asked, "Are you Gu Qibao?"
"Yes." Gu Qibao nodded in response.
The teacher snorted coldly, "You might as well stop studying."
"Huh?" Gu Qibao was confused and blurted out, "Why?"
"Why?" The teacher banged on the table, seeming especially angry. He pointed at Gu Qibao, "With your behavior, why should you study? Handing in blank exam papers, poor grades... you might as well drop out of school, find a man to marry, and have children."
Hearing this, Gu Qibao’s temper flared, "What kind of language is that, teacher?"
Yes, her grades were terrible, but since when did poor performance justify personal attacks?
"What kind of language? I’m just telling the truth." The teacher seemed even angrier, "I despise students like you the most— are not attentive in class, who treat exams casually, who only care about romance, who meddle in affairs between boys and girls! Students like you are a liability. Not satisfied with not studying well yourself, you even drag others down. With your grades, you shouldn’t even be allowed to take the college entrance examination."
Gu Qibao was so angry that her body was shaking. Where had this strange teacher come from to belittle her this way?
Since when did poor academic performance disqualify someone from taking exams? She had never heard of such a thing.
"Teacher, this is discrimination!" Gu Qibao grew more furious, "Even if my grades suck, that’s no reason for you to insult me!"
The teacher gave a contemptuous laugh, "With grades like yours, you dare talk to me about dignity? Do you have any dignity left? You know what I despise most? Students like you. You have a seductive look but instead of studying, you focus on enticing male students. I find it disgusting."
Smoke seemed to rise from Gu Qibao’s head due to her rage. She countered loudly, "Which eye of yours saw me enticing male students?"
The teacher glared at her, "People like you should go to hell! Do you even consider yourself a student?"
Gu Qibao was taken aback by the malice in the teacher’s eyes. Was this teacher a little abnormal?
Seeing that Gu Qibao had nothing to say, the teacher continued, "I do not accept students like you. You don’t have to drop out, I will force you to."
Gu Qibao frowned. What kind of teacher was this? He wanted to force her out of school because of poor grades?
Just as she was about to retort, she heard a chilling voice, "Who dares to force her to drop out?"
The voice, so familiar it was almost physically painful, its protective tone almost moved her to tears.
This was her Duke – the one who would start a fight with anyone who dared to touch her.
But then!
She thought of Di Xiaxia and her chest inexplicably ached. She turned her face away in awkwardness.
This was the real reason she was upset. To put it bluntly, she was jealous—very jealous.
