Chapter 12
Gu Ning’s face changed a little, but not because of Mu Ke . She knew Mu Ke cared about her .
Thus Gu Ning asked him back for fun, “Do I look like I’m in a bad condition?”
Um .
Mu Ke was struck dumb . Gu Ning was absolutely fine and well . She seemed like nothing had happened at all . Or, she wouldn’t have been able to knock down two grown-ups .
“That’s great, and now you know what kind of a person he is . So…” Mu Ke intended to tell Gu Ning to give up any illusion on Qin Zheng, but he thought it wasn’t his business after all .
“It’ll never happen again . I’ve already given up on Qin Zheng . ” Gu Ning knew exactly what was on Mu Ke’s mind . She didn’t care at all .
“Great to hear that,” Mu Ke felt relieved .
Mu Ke wasn’t in love with Gu Ning actually . He just hated to see an innocent girl be bullied .
“It’s late now . I have to go home,” Gu Ning said .
“Sure, bye-bye,” Mu Ke replied .
Since Gu Ning had made a lot of money today, so she took a taxi to go home .
Gu Ning wanted to buy a smartphone at first, but it was too late for that . She didn’t want Gu Man to be worried, so she got home directly .
Indeed, Gu Man called her once when she was halfway, while it took Gu Ning another 20 minutes to be home .
The taxi line was shorter and faster than a bus, so Gu Ning had spent only 40 minutes on her way home .
A half less time than the bus .
When Gu Ning had arrived at her home, it was almost six pm . Gu Man had already prepared the dinner .
Gu Qing’s family were here today too . They came to visit Gu Ning because she had just left the hospital .
Gu Ning’s uncle named Jiang Xu, and her cousin called Jiang Xinyue .
“Ningning’s home . ”
The minute Gu Ning walked in, Jiang Xu and Gu Qing welcomed her .
“Aunt, uncle and Xinyue, nice to meet you all,” Gu Ning greeted them .
“Sister, nice to meet you too,” Jiang Xinyue greeted Gu Ning . She was a shy girl .
Jiang Xinyue was 15 years old now . She was a third grade student in middle school, and a quiet girl of few words . Luckily, she wasn’t as self-abased as the old Gu Ning . She was academic and had lots of friends .
Among the young generation in the Gu family, Jiang Xinyue only liked Gu Ning . For the rest, she had seen them through .
Jiang Xu was two years Gu Qing’s senior, 45 years old, but looked older than his real age . He worked as a truck driver in a construction site . It was a labor work .
Jiang Xu earned thousands of yuan every month . With Gu Qing’s salary, they lived a better life than Gu Ning and her mother .
However, the family of Gu Qing still lived on a tight budget . They were not able to buy a house, but lived in a rental one .
Though City F was a third-tier city, the house price wasn’t low, especially in the downtown .
Even in the suburb, it cost at least hundreds of thousand yuan to buy a house for the whole family to live .
Jiang Xu’s parents had passed away for a long time, so he didn’t need to support his parents, but it was still very hard for him to save enough money because of expenditure on renting and tuition .
So it was a sky-high price for them .
As long as they had food to eat, clothes to wear, and their child could go to school, they felt happy .
Although the family of Gu Qing lived on a tight budget, they would help Gu Ning and Gu Man whenever they could .
When Gu Ning had been in hospital, the rest of the Gu family had ignored . Even when Gu Man had called them to borrow money, they all had rejected .
Only Gu Qing and Jiang Xu had visited Gu Ning . Moreover, they had given Gu Man all of their savings to help Gu Ning with the surgery .
Fortunately, Gu Ning had recovered at the end .
Gu Ning didn’t want to tell Gu Man that she had earn a lot of money . She wanted to wait till she could afford a house .
And she surely would never forget the family of Gu Qing . She would also help them to live a good life when she became rich in the future .
Thinking of that, Gu Ning opened her mouth suddenly, “Mom, aunt, and uncle . I promise I’ll let you live a good life when I become successful in the future . ”
Everyone was surprised by Gu Ning .
No matter if it was going to be true or not, they felt happy that Gu Ning cared about them .
And Gu Ning had just grown up, her future was still unpredictable .
“Great . We’ll wait till the day come . Ningning, we believe you can be successful . ”
“Exactly, we all believe you . ”
Gu Qing and Jiang Xu was moved, and encouraged Gu Ning at the same time .
Gu Man then found out Gu Ning had changed . She was more outgoing now than before .
Because they really loved each other as family, they had a good time that day .
Lying on the bed before falling asleep, Gu Ning took out her notebooks to read .
Though Gu Ning was a good student in her previous incarnation, but not excellent enough . It was harder for Gu Ning in this incarnation to get into college . So, Gu Ning had to spend more time and energy on studying .
She opened her notebooks, reading them ten lines at one sight . The content had all deeply borne in her mind .
The Jade Eyes was really extraordinary .
…
The second day was Monday .
Gu Man had already call Gu Ning’s head teacher for a few days leave due to her accident . Though Gu Ning was fine now, Gu Man still wanted her to stay at home .
But Gu Ning believed otherwise, she wanted to go the school .
Gu Man agreed at the end .
Gu Ning had encountered Shao Feifei yesterday . She didn’t want her head teacher to know that she had recovered but wasn’t willing to attend the classes .
Gu Ning didn’t care about the difficulties . She just didn’t want to get into any more trouble .
The first class was at 6:50 am . It took Gu Ning around 20 minutes to get to her school by bus . Normally, Gu Ning would get up at six o’clock in the morning .
Gu Man went to work at half past eight, because the factory wasn’t far away . It took Gu Man half an hour on her way to work, so she left home at 7:40 am .
Thus, to let Gu Man have more sleep, Gu Ning never eat breakfast at home, but would have all her three meals at her school . She only went back home when the last class had been finished .
