Back to the 1980s: Transmigrated as the Bigshot's Pampered Wife-Chapter 86: Direct Action

Gu Jiaojiao noticed the unfriendly glares from her classmates, but she paid them no mind. She had already finished the exam.

With the homeroom teacher present, the other students didn’t dare say anything. They could only try to kill her with their glares.

The original owner’s memories stopped right before Sheng Yueyue returned to the Sheng Family. She had automatically blocked out all the unpleasant memories that followed.

The Gu Jiaojiao in the book never set foot in school again after getting married, so the story didn’t cover anything that happened there.

Zhang Mingyu was a talkative kid. In just over ten minutes, Gu Jiaojiao had gotten the full picture.

Of course, this was also because Gu Jiaojiao was smart; for every point Zhang Mingyu made, she understood three.

Most of them had been classmates since elementary school, but there were also a few transfer students and some who had been held back a grade.

Zhang Mingyu was the top male student in class. Furthermore, the Zhang Family was a big name in both the residential compound and all of Qing City.

He was the most handsome boy in their class, with Dong Qiming a close second. Both of them had supported Gu Jiaojiao from the very beginning.

The top-performing female students were the two young ladies from the Song Family. Song Dan, the daughter from the family’s first branch, was Song Zijin’s younger sister.

Back then, Song Dan not only treated Gu Jiaojiao as her future sister-in-law, but she also wanted to *become* her sister-in-law.

The daughter of the Song Family’s second branch was Song Qianqian, Song Zijie’s youngest sister. She had a crush on the second brother of the Sheng Family.

According to the book, they came from good families, were beautiful, and also had excellent grades.

Gu Jiaojiao was the most beautiful of all, though her grades were just average. Yet, not only was no one jealous of her looks, but no one mocked her for being a poor student either.

All the girls in class fawned over her because she had three handsome brothers. Many of them dreamed of becoming her sister-in-law.

As for the rest of the girls, many of them had a crush on Song Zijin but felt they weren’t good enough for him.

So, they tried to become best friends with Song Zijin’s fiancée, hoping to get closer to their idol and catch a few more glimpses of him.

The boys in class were captivated by the original owner’s beauty, so they overlooked her grades and even made excuses for her, saying she had poor health.

It was no exaggeration to say that the original owner was the center of attention in her class, adored by everyone.

She thrived in that environment, as happy as a fish in water, and completely neglected her studies.

But after Sheng Yueyue joined their class, the same girls who had fawned over Gu Jiaojiao immediately turned to suck up to the real heiress, while also making sure to ostracize her.

The girls were not just hypercritical of her, finding fault in everything she did, but they also constantly looked for trouble.

The kinder they had been to her before, the crueler they became. They even maliciously tried to set Sheng Yueyue up with Song Zijin.

They claimed that Song Zijin and Sheng Yueyue were the ones who truly had the childhood engagement. Of course, this was all just a ploy to either curry favor with a potential future sister-in-law or with the best friend of their idol’s fiancée.

Classmates who delighted in kicking the original owner while she was down were everywhere. It would have been a miracle if her personality hadn’t changed after falling from heaven into hell.

Gu Jiaojiao truly didn’t get it. ’The world is a big place. Are Song Zijin and the Sheng brothers the only men in it?’

As she thought about this, Gu Jiaojiao was struck by a realization: she hadn’t seen Sheng Yueyue at all since morning self-study.

The homeroom teacher called for everyone to turn in their exams. Soon after, the bell rang, signaling the end of class, but no one seemed eager to leave the classroom.

"Jiaojiao, you’ve gotten even more beautiful since you got married. How did you do on the exam today?"

Song Qianqian walked up to Gu Jiaojiao and asked enthusiastically. While she hadn’t joined in on kicking the original owner when she was down, she had started to distance herself.

"It was fine," Gu Jiaojiao replied coolly.

She knew Song Qianqian was only trying to get chummy with her because her father had helped Song Zijie find the Divine Doctor. It was a fake friendship she could do without.

"Tsk! Qianqian, what are you asking? Without copying Zhang Mingyu, she’d be dead last. How do you think she did?"

Song Dan said maliciously.

The book described Song Dan as graceful and intelligent. As the male lead’s sister, she was blessed with a protagonist’s halo, so her life was smooth sailing.

Although she didn’t get her wish to marry Sheng Shijing, the man she ended up with was a good catch and treated her very well.

Gu Jiaojiao glanced up at Song Dan. ’How should I put it? The girl is delicate, sure, but almost too petite.’

’It might even affect the height of the next generation. Call her gentle? The girl in Gu Jiaojiao’s memory was ruthless.’

’Call her a beauty? She really wasn’t one. At least, not in Gu Jiaojiao’s eyes.’

’Her eyes aren’t big enough, her nose isn’t prominent enough, her eyebrows aren’t long enough, and her mouth isn’t small enough.’

’Call her a sweet, girl-next-door type? She’s a little chubby. Call her exquisitely charming? She completely lacks that spirited energy.’

’Even though she has big, glistening eyes, right now they look shifty, betraying a hint of cunning and malice.’

"Song Dan, who are you calling dead last? When has Jiaojiao ever gotten last place?"

Dong Qiming rolled up his sleeves and demanded furiously. He had promised to look out for his cousin.

"Dong Qiming, Gu Jiaojiao is already married, and you’re still sucking up to her? She copied Zhang Mingyu and still ranked tenth from the bottom! What’s the point of her even being in school?"

A girl with a secret crush on Dong Qiming sneered.

"You... What nonsense are you spouting? Jiaojiao is my cousin! Let’s go, cousin, I’ll buy you a popsicle."

As an adult with the soul of a twenty-eight-year-old, Gu Jiaojiao had no desire to bicker with a bunch of kids. She turned and left with Dong Qiming. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"Cousin? HAHA... Did any of you know Gu Jiaojiao and Dong Qiming were cousins?"

Seeing that Gu Jiaojiao was as meek as ever, the girls behind her started gossiping without restraint.

"I certainly didn’t. Flirting around even though she’s married. How shameless! What gives her the right to even show her face at school?"

"Her bad grades aren’t the main issue! Gu Jiaojiao, you married a cripple! What’s the point of you even studying?"

SLAP!

Enraged, Gu Jiaojiao strode back a few steps and slapped the girl across the face. Just because she didn’t want to argue didn’t mean she would tolerate someone insulting her husband.

"Who are you calling a cripple? Without soldiers risking their lives on the front lines, would you be living such a comfortable life?"

The girl was stunned by the slap. The other students, boys and girls alike, stared at Gu Jiaojiao in disbelief.

Just as Gu Jiaojiao turned to leave, the girl snapped out of it and shrieked.

"Isn’t he a cripple? Divine Doctor Jiang said he’s permanently disabled! I’m not wrong."

"Insult me, and I can tolerate it. But insult my husband? No way. Even God would think you deserve a beating for that. SLAP! SLAP!"

Gu Jiaojiao slapped the girl twice more, then swept her gaze across all the other students in the classroom.

Her gaze was like a frigid pool filled with ice shards, so cold it made everyone’s hearts tremble.

The classmates who had known her since elementary school had never seen such a terrifying expression in her eyes.

"Gu Jiaojiao, you dare hit me? I’m going to tell the teacher!"

"Go on, tell him. Let’s see if the teacher sides with you or with a hero," Gu Jiaojiao said, completely unfazed.

Su Shuochi had never been defended like this before. At her words, his heart felt like a kettle of boiling water, bubbling over with emotion.

Words couldn’t describe what he felt in that moment. He wished he could leap out of his space in one bound and rush to his Jiaojiao.

But his rational mind reminded him that he couldn’t emerge from the space in public. It would only cause trouble for his wife.

Alone in his space, he was so moved that he let the tears stream down his face...
