140 Gu Xiaoxiao Transfers to A School in City G

Gu Qinxiang went on to the bed, and got ready to sleep.

Lin Lijuan was upset. "Honey, we haven't made love in a long time."

"I'm exhausted. Let's do it another day," Gu Qinxiang said.

Lin Lijuan was annoyed. She raised her voice in anger, "Gu Qinxiang, what do you mean? You've said that every time! You're never active, but you always refuse to make love to me whenever I want. Do you have a mistress behind my back? Did you lose your sexual desire for me?"

"Lin Lijuan, that's insane!" Gu Qinxiang was mad too. Even if Lin Lijuan hit the point, it was impossible for him to admit it. "I have to work and socialize all day. Why do I do that? I do that for you, and for the family! And you? You shop, spending my money all day. Have I ever criticized you for that? You fail to teach Xiaoxiao well. Have I blamed you for that? What have you done ever since Xiaoxiao got in trouble? I am the one who needs to go find a school for her! You don't make allowances for me, and even suspect me! Since you don't like our life now, I can quit. Let's all die in hunger!"

Lin Lijuan was stunned, but they hadn't made love even once in a whole week, which was too unacceptable. Lin Lijuan had her sexual needs too.

Gu Qinxiang, instead, ignored her, falling asleep. Lin Lijuan was so mad that she didn't fall asleep until it was very late.

The next morning, Gu Qinxiang contacted the principal of the No. 1 High School in City F. He wanted Xiaoxiao to transfer to that school.

Although Gu Xiaoxiao's score wasn't high on the list in No. 1 High school, it wasn't bad anyway.

If it hadn't been for the fact that No. 1 High School was far away from his home, Gu Qinxiang wouldn't have let Gu Xiaoxiao study in No. 3 High School.

Therefore, it shouldn't be hard for Gu Xiaoxiao to transfer, but unfortunately, what Gu Xiaoxiao had done went across the high schools in City F. The principal of No. 1 High School declined Gu Xiaoxiao's request. The No. 2 High School and No. 4 High School did the same thing.

Gu Qinxiang was so annoyed that he almost smashed his phone. He didn't expect that the news would spread so fast and so far. Someone did it on purpose to force Gu Xiaoxiao to leave City F. Gu Ning. It had to be Gu Ning. Gu Qinxiang couldn't think of anyone else.

Although he didn't believe that Gu Ning was able to do it herself, Gu Ning's friends had the ability to do so.

Nevertheless, it was Gu Xiaoxiao's fault after all, so Gu Qinxiang could only bear the result. He also didn't dare to cause Gu Ning any trouble. If Gu Ning called the police, Gu Xiaoxiao would be in a more dangerous situation.

In the end, Gu Qinxiang could only call Gu Qinyang. He told Gu Qinyang to find a school for Gu Xiaoxiao in City G.

Gu Qinxiang didn't tell Gu Qinyang the real reason. He only explained that Gu Xiaoxiao had a conflict with one of her schoolmates. The student was from a powerful family, and Gu Qinxiang was worried about Gu Xiaoxiao's safety, so he decided to let Gu Xiaoxiao transfer to City G.

It wasn't hard for Gu Xiaoxiao to transfer because of her good score. Most importantly, the school in City G didn't know about what Gu Xiaoxiao had done.

Gu Xiaoxiao herself was fine with the result, but Lin Lijuan felt reluctant to do so. However, she had to face the reality that Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't study in any of the high schools in City F. Lin Lijuan hated Gu Ning to the death, but she was also worried that Gu Ning would call the police, so she kept a distance from Gu Ning for now.

Gu Ning hadn't told Gu Man about it. She didn't want to upset her mother.

...

In the afternoon, Gu Ning sent An Guangyao, Wu Guanzhong's landscape painting, The Pond and The People. An Guangyao immediately put it in the safe for security.

After that, Gu Ning went to shop with Chu Peihan and Yu Mixi in the afternoon. Tomorrow was Master Qin's sixtieth birthday party. They needed to prepare a formal dress for it. Yu Mixi only had three thousand yuan. She was on a tight budget, but she had made up her mind to spend all of her savings to buy a beautiful dress.

"I know a formal dress shop, which is suitable for us," Chu Peihan said, once they walked inside the female clothes area.

Gu Ning and Yu Mixi agreed. They followed Chu Peihan to get there.

"Miss Chu, Nice to meet you! Welcome to our shop!" A saleswoman walked ahead at once.

Gu Ning glanced around the shop. Her eyes lit up.

It was a big shop which consisted of two areas.

One was full of luxurious gowns, while there were many relatively elegant dresses in another. Those dresses in the second area were suitable for young girls to wear in a formal situation or in their daily life.

"How is it?" Chu Peihan was proud to see that Gu Ning was satisfied.

"Very good," Gu Ning complimented.

"Of course, my taste is always good," Chu Peihan said. "Come on and have a look. No matter which piece you like, it's on me."

"No, no," Yu Mixi refused. She knew Chu Peihan was from a rich family, but she couldn't spend Chu Peihan's money like that.

"I said yes. We're close friends!" Chu Peihan said. Yu Mixi then looked to Gu Ning.

"Relax. We don't need to save money for her. Time is limited. Let's hurry up!" Gu Ning didn't think it was inappropriate at all.

Since Gu Ning agreed, Yu Mixi didn't insist any longer. She went to pick one for herself.

Yu Mixi noticed a beautiful dress. She took a look at the price tag, and was shocked. It cost several thousand yuan!

She wanted to find a cheaper one, but failed. There were even dresses at the price of a few dozen thousand yuan. Yu Mixi was totally struck dumb.

Jesus, those dresses were so expensive!

"Um, Ningning, I think the dresses here are too expensive. I..." Yu Mixi walked to Gu Ning. She was timid.

"Don't worry. Mixi, I understand that you don't like to spend money like that. You probably will think we're giving out alms, but please don't take it that way. We're friends, and friends share good things," Gu Ning comforted her.

"I know, but I..."

Yu Mixi didn't hate the rich. She also didn't think that Gu Ning and Chu Peihan were giving out alms, but she was still self-abased. She was the one who kept receiving good things from her friends without giving back, and she didn't feel comfortable about that.

"Hey, what you're talking about? Come on and try some! We don't have much time to choose!" Chu Peihan walked out from a dressing room. Seeing that Gu Ning and Yu Mixi were still in discussion, she reminded them to get down to business.
