Since Gu Ning made a promise, Zhang Qiuhua compromised, but she still reminded her to study hard. If she failed to do so, Zhang Qiuhua wouldn't allow her to leave the next time.
"Oh, Yu Mixi is going to the opening ceremony with me today. Please allow it too," Gu Ning added.
"You…" Zhang Qiuhua was mad, but permitted it in the end. She pushed Gu Ning out with impatience. "Go away now, and leave me alone."
Gu Ning understood that Zhang Qiuhua was not really being unkind, so she didn't mind. She thanked her teacher before walking out.
The minute Gu Ning was gone, Jiang Yuan stepped in. Seeing that Zhang Qiuhua was displeased, he asked with care, "Professor Zhang, are you alright?"
"I'm fine. I'm just mad at Gu Ning. The test is around the corner, but she still always asks for a leave," Zhang Qiuhua complained.
