46: Apology and compensation
Hearing what Guo Hao said.
The two middle-aged men looked at each other, a hint of hesitation in their eyes.
"Student Guo Hao, I am Liu Xi's Dad."
"I am Zhao Ying's Dad."
The two middle-aged men in front of him first introduced themselves to Guo Hao.
Guo Hao's expression remained unchanged, he had already guessed it.
"I've already guessed this point, just say it directly, what do you want? Once you're done, I need to go back and study."
The two men in front of him looked slightly awkward.
"Uh, Student Guo Hao, this matter is our daughters' problem, we have offended you greatly, I apologize to you on behalf of our daughters!"
"Sorry!"
The two middle-aged men said in unison to Guo Hao.
"No need for apologies, if anyone should apologize, it's your daughters apologizing to me and Shen Luoyan. Your apologies, to me, don't mean much.
Just say what compensation you can give. My time is precious, I don't have the leisure to waste it here with you!"
Guo Hao said calmly.
"Alright, we won't beat around the bush either, Student Guo Hao, how much money do you want as compensation? Feel free to name your price! We will definitely satisfy you, as long as you don't file a lawsuit."
Zhao Ying's father, who was standing by, quickly said to Guo Hao.
From his tone, Guo Hao could tell he was wealthy.
"I don't care. I'm a guy, these rumors don't hurt me much, but this rumor has caused great harm to Student Shen Luoyan.
How about this, your two families gather ten thousand yuan for Shen Luoyan, as compensation for a girl like Shen Luoyan's reputation. This amount isn't too much, is it?"
Hearing Guo Hao's words, Zhao Ying's father and Liu Xi's father both breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"Not much, not much!"
"Okay, that's settled then. I'm going back to class. Oh, right, remember to have Zhao Ying and Liu Xi publicly apologize to Shen Luoyan in class. You can forget about me!"
"Okay! Okay!"
The two fathers readily agreed. At this moment, as long as Guo Hao decided not to sue, that was the most important thing for them.
Guo Hao's request wasn't excessive, and it was very reasonable, so they naturally couldn't object.
"Alright, that's it then, I'll head back first."
With that said, Guo Hao turned and left, regardless of what the two fathers beside him were thinking.
Looking at Guo Hao's retreating figure.
The two fathers' eyes were slightly complex.
This kid was far more mature than they thought. Originally, they had already prepared for Guo Hao to demand a hefty sum.
They thought that giving this kid tens of thousands of yuan would pretty much resolve the matter.
But they didn't expect that Guo Hao didn't want their money at all, only asking for ten thousand yuan for Shen Luoyan.
His words and actions were absolutely flawless.
Amazing!
Truly amazing!
This was actually a high school student in his third year, still attending school?
This child is no ordinary person!
This thought arose in the minds of both fathers.
Returning to the classroom.
"Were those two just now Zhao Ying and Liu Xi's...?"
Wang Xi eagerly asked Guo Hao.
"Their Dads."
"How was it??? What conditions did you propose???"
Wang Xi looked at Guo Hao with bright eyes, ready to start fleecing the rich.
"I didn't ask for money."
Wang Xi: "?"
He looked at Guo Hao in confusion.
"I asked for money for Shen Luoyan. For me, this money doesn't mean anything, and in this matter, I wasn't harmed in any way, so what would I want their money for?
Shen Luoyan is the victim, asking for money for her is only right and proper!"
Guo Hao shrugged.
"Holy crap! Such a good opportunity! You guy! You've really changed completely!"
Wang Xi almost jumped up from his seat, looking at Guo Hao with disbelief.
"Alright, get off my seat and go study, don't disturb me with my practice problems!"
Guo Hao said to Wang Xi irritably.
"Fine then!"
Wang Xi, who originally wanted to hear more gossip, could only reluctantly stand up from Guo Hao's seat.
Guo Hao sat in his seat and continued to work on practice problems.
There were only a dozen or so problems left that Shen Luoyan had assigned him. Guo Hao wanted to give them to Shen Luoyan at the end of the first period of evening self-study.
This time would be more suitable.
It must be said that high school knowledge is far more complex than middle school.
In middle school, as long as you understood formulas and theorems and then did a series of practice problems, the completion rate would definitely not increase too slowly.
Especially the knowledge from the second year of middle school, there weren't actually that many convoluted parts, it was just some difficulties in calculations.
Ultimately, there weren't too many difficult areas.
But when it comes to high school, knowing formulas and theorems is just one aspect, and integrating knowledge is another.
There are many convoluted parts in high school problems.
Especially when examining first-year high school knowledge in the third year of high school.
It leans more towards composite types of problems, and even ordinary calculation problems are like this.
Therefore, the learning progress was much slower than before.
After studying for so long and doing practice problems for so long, Guo Hao's completion rate had only reached a little over forty percent.
In high school problems, there are many traps. Some problems that look very straightforward actually hide in some inconspicuous details.
During the evening reading, he continued to recite ancient poems and chemical equations, and Guo Hao also began to touch upon some Biology material that needed to be memorized.
After all, he had to reach one hundred percent of first-year high school knowledge in a month!
He had only just managed to push Mathematics to over forty percent, and the Science Comprehensive subjects hadn't even started yet.
After the evening reading ended, he continued to work on practice problems during evening self-study.
After one period of evening self-study, Guo Hao finally finished the hundred problems that Shen Luoyan had assigned.
After class, Guo Hao directly took the 'Five Years College Entrance Examination, Three Years Simulation' book and came to the elite class.
As soon as Shen Luoyan saw Guo Hao, before he could speak.
"You got money for me??? I don't want this money!"
Shen Luoyan stared at Guo Hao, her eyes full of stubbornness.
"This money is compensation for you, compensation for your emotional distress. This world is fair, if you don't accept this money, they will think you will definitely pursue the matter to the end, and then I will have to sue them.
Are you really going to let them commit a wrong and not have to pay the price?"
Guo Hao smiled and said, looking at Shen Luoyan.
"I believe you will understand such a simple principle."
"But!"
Shen Luoyan was still a little hesitant.
"Take the money! Or let your Grandma take it, just say it's compensation given by the rumor mongers, I've already been merciful enough!"
Guo Hao's eyes were cold.
"Then this money shouldn't be taken by me alone."
After a long silence, perhaps Shen Luoyan had thought it through, she looked at Guo Hao seriously and said.
"Forget it, my reputation wasn't really damaged by this matter, so I'm too lazy to ask them for money. If I were harmed, I would just ask them for another ten thousand, wouldn't I!"
Guo Hao smiled and said, looking at Shen Luoyan.
Shen Luoyan nodded silently.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore, I've finished the problems!"
Saying that, Guo Hao handed the 'Five Years College Entrance Examination, Three Years Simulation' book to Shen Luoyan.
