Gu Mang thought for a few seconds and said tepidly, “I start medical school in September.”
Elder Tan thought this was good. “Take it step by step. No rush.”
Ten years ago, when Gu Mang’s national joint exam results came out, countless top schools all came to Clearwater High School with hopes that Gu Mang would choose their school. But he had always felt that Gu Mang wasn’t suitable for university at such a young age.
Gu Mang acknowledged with a hum. When the elevator opened, the group walked in.
In place of the waitstaff at the door was the boss of World Restaurant. The man was in his forties and still healthy. He knew that Lu Shangjin had booked the venue for tonight, and despite this planned to enjoy tea at home because of his status. However, the manager called him and informed him that the one from the capital would be there as well.
Hearing this, he rushed over from home.
“Director-General Lu.” The boss bowed respectfully, then regarded Lu Chengzhou even more respectfully. “Young Master Lu.”
Lu Chengzhou gestured with his chin.
The boss nodded his head to indicate that he understood. He turned to the side, with his head bowed the whole time, and made a welcoming gesture. “Please, come inside.”
Gu Mang followed Elder Tan and walked in. The two managers of the World Restaurant respectfully followed behind the group. At the door of the private room, the boss opened the door, and everyone who was inside turned to look instinctively.
When Principal Ren saw the people in the private room, he was shocked again for a moment. It was filled with the scion of powerful families in the capital. The youngest there was the vice president of Capital University law school. There was also the little devil, Qin Yaozhi from the Qin family, and President Ji Heng from Lan Ting…
Not to mention the fact that Gu Mang was the Chief Designer for Lan Ting.
Principal Ren was dumbfounded. What kind of birthday feast was this? It was no easy task to gather these people but here they were! Just what kind of person was the top student they had recruited into Capital University?
Jiang Shenyuan and the others stood up as they approached and politely greeted them. Gu Si saw Meng Jinyang and waved to her very happily. “Sister Jinyang.”
Meng Jinyang scurried over and smiled as she touched his head. “You’ve grown a lot taller.”
Hearing people compliment him about how fresh he looked now that he was taller, he replied very modestly, “Oh, it’s nothing much. My goal is to be 1.9m in height.”
As he said that, he glanced at Lu Chengzhou, who was nearly twenty centimeters taller than his sister who was 1.7m tall herself.
Jiang Shenyuan heard his lofty ambitions and couldn’t help but laugh out loud. He was optimistic about his growth. “Keep up a good diet.”
Gu Si raised an eyebrow and gestured with his fingers on his forehead to show that he understood. Then, he turned and greeted Ji Heng with a smile.
Lu Shangjin got everyone to take their seats.
Elder Tan sat on the main seat with Lu Shangjin on one side, and Gu Mang on the other. Lu Chengzhou sat next to Gu Mang, and Qin Fang next to the two. Gu Si sat with Meng Jinyang and Qin Yaozhi.
Qin Yaozhi had never met Gu Si and had only found out that he was Sister Mang’s younger brother after asking today. He was so cute.
In a matter of minutes, Qin Yaozhi and Gu Si became buddies, and Gu Si was calling her “Sister Yaozhi.”
Qin Yaozhi was so happy hearing that. She immediately took game consoles worth more than several ten thousands from her bag and gave them to Gu Si.
Gu Mang stared silently.
When everyone was seated, Lu Shangjin glanced at the boss and signaled that they were ready to be served. The boss immediately asked the manager to prepare the food.
Another supervisor of World Restaurant came in from outside with tea and passed by the manager who was going out.
The boss picked up the teapot on the tray and said with a smile, “This Pu’er tea is from the new World Restaurant. Please, have a try.”
Just then, somebody knocked on the door to the private room.
