Gu Pei was taken aback. “Damn it, Xu Niannian, could you be any more self-centered?”
Despite their breakup, he maintained a more respectful tone with Xu Niannian due to her admiration for the Whale God. However, her words were beyond distasteful.
Gu Yang smiled reassuringly. “Xu Junior Sister, perhaps you’re unaware, but my brother has always been consistent with his grades. This time, he dropped to Class Five because he missed one essay.”
Xu Niannian was dumbfounded.
Upon the release of the results, Gu Pei’s descent to Class Five had shocked everyone, yet the specifics of his scores remained unknown.
Xu Niannian hadn’t anticipated it was due to a missed essay.
How could his grades not plummet after losing over 50 points for no discernible reason?
Did Gu Pei deliberately sabotage his grades to avoid being in the same class as her?
Zhu Di observed Xu Niannian’s pallid complexion and sneered. She didn’t mince words, adding decisively, “Did you hear that? Don’t delude yourself. Our Pei is repulsed by you. He’d rather flunk the exam than share a classroom with you.”
“How dare she treat Yangyang’s little brother like this? Did she think our No.1 Middle School Group was a pushover?”
“That’s enough!” Xu Niannian’s tears welled up as she bit her lip, clutching the phone case tightly. She glared at Gu Pei defiantly.
“Gu Pei, let me ask you again. Do you want this gift or not? If you don’t, I’ll toss it in the trash.”
With that, Xu Niannian strode towards the trash can, dangling the phone case with Whale Fall’s signature above it.
Everyone was stunned by Xu Niannian’s bold move.
Gu Pei hadn’t anticipated Xu Niannian would treat the autograph of the Whale God in such a manner. Frustration flashed in his eyes as he struggled to contain his anger. “Damn it, are you out of your mind? Threatening me like this? Do you even deserve to be a fan of the Whale God?”
Lu Mao and the others grew increasingly uneasy as they eyed the phone case.
“If you don’t want it, just give it to me! Why ruin something associated with the Whale God?”
“Xu Junior Sister, please calm down. Aren’t you a fan of the Whale God as well? Why treat his gifts this way?”
Xu Niannian fixed her gaze stubbornly on Gu Pei. “If you won’t accept it, then I’ll truly dispose of it.”
“Wait!” Gu Pei ground his teeth, halting her. “Xu Niannian, if you no longer want it, I’ll buy it from you. How much do you want for it? Name your price.”
Xu Niannian’s expression turned frigid. “I don’t want money. I just want to be with you.”
Lu Mao and the others glanced at Gu Pei one by one, contemplating whether to let him pretend to agree with Xu Niannian. After all, it bore the Whale God’s signature!
Gu Yang furrowed her brow. She hadn’t expected Xu Niannian to hold onto such a lifeline for Gu Pei.
She caught a playful glint in Gu Jin’s eyes as she observed the situation, as if she were watching a drama unfold. Suddenly, she had a suspicion.
Gu Yang walked to her side and tugged at her sleeve. When Gu Jin glanced over, she blinked and asked in a low voice, “Sister, did you really sign it?”
Gu Jin replied, “Of course not.” She wouldn’t casually autograph anything.
Feng Jue cast a disdainful glance and his eyes brimmed with contempt. “Even if it’s fake, it’s incomplete. Even the blue whale pattern is a knockoff.”
The blue whale emblem, the hallmark of Team Blue Whale, was designed by Gu Jin herself. He knew every detail of it.
Thus, he could easily discern that the phone cases branded with the supposed Team Blue Whale logo were nothing more than high-quality replicas.
Gu Yang breathed a sigh of relief upon receiving the official confirmation.
“That’s a relief.”
Just as Gu Pei clenched his fists and faced off with Xu Niannian by the trash can, Gu Yang approached and interjected, “Pei, let her throw it.”
Gu Pei found himself in a dilemma. “But, sister…”
Gu Yang spoke with gravity, “That’s a knockoff. The signature isn’t Whale Fall’s.”
Gu Pei was taken aback.
Xu Niannian seethed with anger. “Who are you to claim it’s fake? You don’t play games or follow the eSports scene. How could you recognize the Whale God’s signature?”
