Having obtained Principal Wang's permission, Gu Xiaoer pushed open the door and entered.
When she saw Guo Ting, a flash of surprise crossed her face, then she nodded lightly at her and greeted the Principal.
"Hello, Principal," she said.
Principal Wang's stern expression immediately brightened into a smile when he saw who had arrived. "Student Gu is here! Come, take a seat!" he said, chuckling.
He rose from his seat specially to point out a chair next to his desk, indicating for Gu Xiaoer to sit there.
The seemingly trivial act of the Principal, however, turned Guo Ting green with envy. She thought resentfully: How many times had she been to the office, and how long had she been standing there today, yet the Principal had never offered her a seat. Why did Gu Xiaoer receive such treatment the moment she arrived?
Why? Why!
The Principal's glaringly obvious preferential treatment was just too much. Was joining Shenghan really something so impressive?
