"His real parents died, and he's been very sad, depressed every day, even attempted suicide. I thought having a relative with him might make him feel better." Gu Zhiqi said, looking innocently and sincerely at Teacher Mo.
She told the lie without batting an eye and used Gu Chengan as a pawn without any pressure.
Teacher Mo listened and believed her.
With a wave of his hand, he signed the leave slip for Gu Zhiqi.
Gu Zhiqi took the leave slip back to her class.
Not long after the fourth period ended, a student arrived at Class Eight's door, asking Gu Zhiqi to go to the vice principal's office.
Gu Zhiqi agreed verbally but had no intention of going at all.
As usual, not long after the class was dismissed, only Qiao Qingshu, Lu Xingzhe, and Gu Zhiqi were left in the Class Eight classroom.
The three didn't stay in the classroom for long either; once most students had left, they got up, planning to go eat.
