 Chapter 25: How to Skip Grades (Extra Update)

The rumors were indeed unreliable. What "mute"? This girl's mouth could literally annihilate someone.

Yao Dong furrowed his brow, his gaze towards Gu Qingning becoming complicated.

At that moment, the bus arrived.

Gu Qingning picked up her backpack and got off the bus.

She looked around, raised her hand, and threw a yogurt box. It gracefully traced a beautiful arc in the air, landing accurately into the trash bin.

Her clean and neat action left many passersby dumbfounded.

"Is she really Gu Qingning? Are you sure?" Yao Dong looked at the girl in front of him with a probing gaze, nudging the person next to him with his elbow.

"It's her, no one else has that face. You can't fake that kind of effect." The boy said.

"Dong ge, maybe we shouldn't provoke her."

"Shut up." Yao Dong shot him a disdainful glance, took his own backpack, and walked towards the school gate.

Not wearing the school uniform, Gu Qingning was stopped at the entrance.

Especially on Mondays, the vice principal would personally oversee it.

"You said you're a student from Class 2 of Grade 10, then why aren't you wearing the school uniform?" The vice principal asked with a serious expression.

"I lost my school uniform, I'll come to get it later." Gu Qingning replied calmly, "I'm Gu Qingning from Class 2 of Grade 10. If you don't believe me, you can ask my homeroom teacher for confirmation."

Her overly composed demeanor attracted frequent side glances from onlookers, even the vice principal couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

He took out his phone, opened the contact list, and made a call. "Li Fei, come to the school gate."

Not long after hanging up, a young woman hurried over.

She wore a gray dress, her waist-length curly hair tied into a ponytail, and a touch of makeup, appearing elegant and dignified.

Li Fei gasped for breath and asked, "Vice Principal, is there something you need from me?"

"Is this girl named Gu Qingning a student in your class?" The vice principal asked.

Li Fei was taken aback, then turned her head to see the delicate face of the girl.

She showed a delighted expression and walked quickly towards her. "Gu Qingning, you finally came back! Where have you been these past few days?"

Gu Qingning didn't answer, changing the subject, "Teacher Li, can I go in now?"

Looking into her deep ink-black pupils, Li Fei was stunned, suddenly feeling that the girl in front of her was very unfamiliar.

Just the mere indifference and composure made her seem like a completely different person from before.

Suddenly, her expression became strange, and she exclaimed in astonishment, "You...you can speak now?"

Gu Qingning nodded and patiently repeated, "Can I go in now?"

Suppressing the questions in her heart, Li Fei turned to the vice principal. "Principal, she is a student in our class."

The vice principal said, "Since she's a student in your class, you need to take care of her. Arrange to replace her lost school uniform as soon as possible."

Li Fei smiled and nodded, then turned to Gu Qingning. "Let's go."

Gu Qingning took long strides and leisurely followed behind her.

As they walked through the school, they were surrounded by students wearing school uniforms, except for her, who was dressed casually.

"Qingning, we were so worried about you during these past few days." Li Fei said gently.

"When you get to class, I'll report the uniform issue for you. You can come and pick it up from me tomorrow."

"No need." Gu Qingning paused her steps, absentmindedly hooking fallen leaves with the tip of her toe.

"Teacher Li, I have a question I'd like to ask."

"What's the question? Go ahead and ask." Li Fei replied.

"How can I skip grades?" She asked nonchalantly.

To casually mention skipping grades, it seemed as simple as talking about eating a meal for her.
