From a distance, Jiang Shenyuan observed her pretty, stony face, and said, “Alright then, when your university entrance exams are over we’ll have a celebration with you and Jinyang.”
Gu Mang cocked her eyebrow. “I’m going.”
He watched as the girl turned and left. She walked as though she were ignoring him.
Jiang Shenyuan stood at the door of the staff room, one hand in his pocket, watching in amazement.
So dangerous yet fascinating.
…
In the second period of night self-learning, Gu Mang appeared in the classroom. The only students left were the students living on campus.
As soon as she stepped into the classroom, all eyes were upon her.
Seeing that she had returned, Meng Jinyang’s eyes lit up. Watching her take her seat, she went over to her cautiously. Gu Mang was very tired and wanted to sleep. Meng Jinyang came over and saw her take out a cushion and put on headphones. Meng Jinyang came to sit beside her.
Gu Mang lay down on the table, her eyes narrowing as she said lazily, “Mm?”
Meng Jinyang was lying on the table just like her. Her clear eyes widened slightly and she whispered, “Gu Mang, what shall we do for this Saturday’s parent-teacher meeting?”
Gu Mang’s parents were already…
And as for her, her parents were as good as dead. No one could attend the parent-teacher meeting for them.
Gu Mang said in a lackadaisical tone, “I’ll tell Little Xi that we won’t be attending the parent-teacher meeting.”
Meng Jinyang pursed her lips. “Actually, I already informed Ms. Xi today. She said that there will be a Year Three motivational assembly on Saturday. Parents and students will be invited to give their signatures. Ms. Xi said we should try to find an elderly person to come with us on stage. Otherwise it won’t reflect well on us especially since I’m the first to go on stage.”
Hearing this, Gu Mang lifted her eyelids, her pretty eyebrows furrowed. She thought for a few seconds and said quietly, “Alright, leave it to me.”
Meng Jinyang froze for a moment. “What are you going to do? Are you going to hire someone?”
Gu Mang took out her cell phone immediately, found Jiang Shenyuan’s WeChat, and she casually typed, “Lawyer Jiang, I have a parent-teacher meeting this weekend. Please help out.”
…
Jiang Shenyuan was at a dinner meeting. When his private cell phone rang, he excused himself, got up, and went outside.
The assistant followed suit.
Seeing Gu Mang’s message, he replied, “Which day?”
Gu Mang: “Saturday.”
After asking the assistant about his schedule, Jiang Shenyuan told the assistant to clear everything scheduled on Saturday.
He replied to Gu Mang, “See you on Friday night.”
Jiang Shenyuan looked down at the cell phone. He also wanted to see Meng Jinyang and see the progress of her recovery.
…
Gu Mang turned the cell phone around and showed Meng Jinyang the chat history. “Jiang Shenyuan will attend the parent-teacher meeting for you.”
Meng Jinyang didn’t expect that the matter would be solved so easily. After staring blankly for a few seconds, she asked, “Lawyer Jiang will attend for the two of us?”
The corner of Gu Mang’s lips turned up in a smirk and she drawled, “Yes, we both got first. He’ll attend for us both.”
Meng Jinyang couldn’t help but laugh. At the thought of her grades, she wondered, “Gu Mang, how did you take the test? I don’t believe you really scored a zero.”
Gu Mang was so sleepy that her eyes were closed. “I just gave some answers. Who knew I’d be so unlucky. Not a single one was right.”
The corner of Meng Jinyang’s mouth twitched. “Next time you should just put C for all your answers. You definitely won’t get a zero that way.”
Gu Mang grunted in acknowledgment and fell asleep.
…
The next morning, when Meng Jinyang went to Xi Yan’s staffroom to pick up some things, she bumped into some girls from Class One.
She had met one of the girls after dinner with Lu Shangjin last time. Gu Yin was amongst them as well.
