105 Desperate Situation
The matter of recommending transfer students could be big or small. If the person recommended was someone like Gu Man who had poor grades and even hit a classmate, not only would there be endless trouble, it would also affect the reputation of the person recommended. He really did not dare to accept such a matter casually.
Therefore, Zhang Yue could only reply politely, “I see. The Zhang family has nothing to do with Han City First High School. Otherwise, we can help.”
Gu Yuan was not so polite. He asked directly, “Doesn’t your mother know Mrs. Bai? Can she pull some strings and let us get to know Mrs. Bai?”
Zhang Yue was speechless.
He was just being polite just now. He didn’t really want to get involved in such a thing!
Even if the Zhang Family was one of the members of the school board and had some connections with the Gu Family, they might not want to help. Why would the Bai Family help them for no reason? What benefits could the Gu Family give the Bai Family?
Zhang Yue frowned. Did Gu Yuan not understand or was he desperate?
Seeing that Gu Yuan was still waiting for his reply, Zhang Yue said tactfully, “My mother and Mrs. Bai only got to know each other recently. It might not be good to make such a request rashly.”
“What’s wrong with that? As long as Mrs. Zhang pulls the strings, we’ll discuss the rest with the Bai family,” Gu Yuan said matter-of-factly.
Zhang Chuan frowned again. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have mentioned that his mother was dining with Mrs. Bai.
“Uncle Gu, it’s not that I don’t want to help, it’s just... it’s really hard to help. You know that the recommendation spots for the school board members are extremely precious. They won’t recommend them easily.”
Seeing that Zhang Yue was in a difficult position, Gu Rou gently pulled his hand and comforted him. “Brother Yue, we know you’ve tried your best. Don’t worry, let’s see if there are other ways.”
“What other way is there? Without a certain amount of connections and status, everything is difficult.”
Seeing that the Gu family looked like they could not help, Gu Zhi said loudly and resentfully, “How is there no other way? Gu Man knows Teacher Zhuang of the Zhuang Family and Mrs. Zhou. She could solve it just by speaking to someone. Why is it so difficult? It’s obvious that she doesn’t want to help!”
Seeing that the others seemed to agree, Zhang Yue said in surprise, “Gu Man knows the Zhuang family and the Zhou family?”
Qu Bei said sarcastically, “She’s very capable. Not only does she know the Zhuang Family and the Zhou Family, but she also has an unclear relationship with Young Master Bai. One day, she might even have the ability to know the Cui Family and the Xiang Family. What do you think she relies on? Isn’t it just because of the beautiful face the Gu Family gave her? She really thinks she’s so powerful.”
Zhang Yue was a little frustrated when he heard that Gu Man and Young Master Bai had an ambiguous relationship, Gu Man didn’t even look at herself and pounced on handsome and rich men as soon as she set her eyes on them. How indecent.
Zhang Yue suppressed the frustration in his heart. “If that’s the case, it shouldn’t be a problem if you talked to Gu Man.”
Zhang Yue felt that if it could really be solved by saying something, Gu Man had no reason not to do it. After all, Gu Man used to always do things to please the Gu family.
“Brother Yue, you don’t know. No matter how we begged her or tried to reason with her, she ignored us. Before we came to eat, I talked to her for a long time and she even scolded me. I know she wants to take revenge on me and thinks that I snatched you away from her.” As Gu Rou spoke, she squeezed out a few tears.
“Silly girl, how can someone like her listen to your reasoning? Don’t do such a thing next time and make yourself unhappy.” Zhang Yue comforted Gu Rou.
“That’s right. You can’t reason with her. Just directly not give her food and don’t let her go to school. We’ll see if she can continue being tough.” Gu Zhi gritted her teeth and said roughly.
When Zhang Yue heard this, he frowned. When Gu Rou saw this, she quickly coughed lightly. “My aunt is used to saying rough words in her hometown. She doesn’t have any ill intentions. It’s just that my cousin hasn’t enrolled yet. She’s anxious.”
When Gu Zhi heard Gu Rou’s words, she reacted and quickly explained, “Look at how anxious I am. I don’t know what I said.”
