Chapter 539: The Gathering of Shadow League and Red Flame at the Graduation Party
After Gu Mang hung up the call, she turned around and noticed that Meng Jinyang was coming over.
There were many people to talk to today, so the two had not had the chance to exchange more than a few words.
Looking down at Meng Jjnyang’s face, which had grown slightly rounder than before, Gu Mang pinched her cheek lightly. “The meals at Jiang Shenyuan’s house must be delicious. You actually grew rounder.”
Meng Jinyang was on the thinner side. She looked more normal now.
She laughed. “The food is indeed quite tasty.”
Gu Mang looked up slightly. “If you like it there, you can do your internship there during your winter and summer breaks.”
Meng Jinyang acknowledged and paused for a moment. Then, she looked at Gu Mang and said, “I scored 734 points. I have the second highest score in the entire province.”
Gu Mang nodded slowly. “Good job. You can become Jiang Shenyuan’s student now.”
Meng Jinyang pursed her lips and smiled. Her curved eyes welled up slightly. “Once I start earning money, I will give all my money to you.”
Gu Mang straightened her back and said softly, “Why would you give it to me? Leave it for yourself.”
“But I promised that I would repay the money you spent on my treatment once I start working.” Looking serious, Meng Jinyang spoke as if she would leave no room for negotiation.
Gu Mang put her arm over the girl’s shoulder and walked towards the sofa slowly. “I’m not accepting it. Either that or you offer your body.”
Meng Jinyang was speechless.
Lu Chengzhou was leaning on the sofa with one arm resting on the back of it languidly. Seeing how Gu Mang was completely leaning towards Meng Jinyang, he narrowed his eyes slightly.
Qin Fang saw this scene unintentionally and said, “Tsk, little sister-in-law goes after both males and females.”
Gu Mang was a cold person. Her facial expression always read ‘leave me alone’. She showed that side to both males and females.
Among the girls, Meng Jinyang was the only person who was slightly close to Gu Mang. It just so happened that Gu Mang had more female fans than male fans at the moment.
Lu Chengzhou looked away and said indifferently, “Is that so?”
Qin Fang acknowledged very seriously.
…
At night.
The meal was ready.
The Juyi private room at World Restaurant had a top notch interior and the decoration was very luxurious as well. The room was also fully equipped with all sorts of entertainment facilities.
Chu Yao, Fatty, and Shen Huan’s parents arrived first and were waiting inside the private room.
Principal Fu and Xi Yan also arrived.
After learning that they were throwing a graduation party through the WeChat group, Qin Yaozhi rushed over from the capital. She pestered Qin Rui to let her go.
A few parents were chatting with Principal Fu on the sofa. Chu Yao’s father and Fatty’s father were discussing donating a library to the school.
Upon hearing this, Principal Fu could not stop smiling.
Previously, Principal Fu had thought that his retirement would be a quiet one. However, now, he could now retire gloriously.
The top scorers on the national joint exams and the university entrance exams were from Ming City High School. Province Two and Province Five had also achieved a one hundred per cent university admission rate.
This was definitely his most splendid and glorious achievement ever since he became a teacher.
Just as they were chatting, there was a knock on the private room’s door. They looked over. The esteemed old boss of World Restaurant opened the door to the surprise of everyone.
“This way please. ” The old boss’s attitude was extremely courteous.
Chu Yao and Fatty’s fathers were both respected figures in Ming City. They knew that Lu Shangjin did not have the influence to ask the old boss of World Restaurant to personally entertain them.
Lu Shangjin and Lin Zhou were leading the way. Behind them was a man. When Lu Chengzhou walked past the old boss, the old boss bowed even lower.
Upon witnessing this scene, the people in the private room became nervous. They could not guess Lu Chengzhou’s identity, but they knew that he was definitely not a simple man.
A few of them regained their senses quickly as they got up immediately and said, “Director-General Lu.”
Lu Shangjin waved his hand. “No need to be so polite. This is just a graduation party for the kids.”
They acknowledged him.
Qin Rui also greeted Lu Chengzhou and the others.
“Sister Mang.”
Qin Yaozhi and a few others gathered in front of Gu Mang, looking very excited. Ever since Gu Mang had left Ming City High School, they had only seen each other once or twice.
When everyone’s attention shifted to Gu Si, their gazes became complicated.
Qin Yaozhi had always felt that she was intelligent, but compared to these two big bosses, she was nothing.
This was too ridiculous!
Gu Si greeted all the brothers, sisters, uncles, and aunts obediently. The group settled down one by one noisily.
Lu Chengzhou helped Gu Mang pull her chair out and he hung the cap on the chair. He said softly, “Sit.”
When Gu Mang sat down, her posture was frivolous and improper.
The old boss immediately ordered a few managers to bring in the dishes.
Firstly, everyone raised their glasses to celebrate their childrens’ university entrance exams results. The smiles on the parents’ faces didn’t disappear even for a single moment.
Lu Chengzhou picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork rib, and gave it to Gu Mang while looking at her exquisite face.
There was a subtle smile on the girl’s face. The atmosphere did not seem so tense now. She seemed to be in a good mood.
“Ms. Gu.” Father Chu raised his wine glass. “My son always falls short. But thanks to you, no longer. I have to give you a toast.”
Chu Yao also stood up with Father Chu. “Sister Mang, let me give you a toast too.”
Mother Chu also got up.
Following them, Fatty and Shen Huan’s parents also stood up and offered their toasts to Gu Mang.
They were scared that Gu Mang would not be able to drink so many glasses with so many of them toasting her.
Lu Chengzhou watched as Gu Mang lifted the wine glass off the table and drank with Chu Yao’s parents.
Considering that the group would be offering toasts, World Restaurant had only brought out alcohol with a low alcohol content.
Lu Chengzhou did not stop her.
After downing the glass, all the students and parents offered their toasts to Xi Yan and Principal Fu next.
They were all famous figures in Ming City. Hence, Principal Fu and Xi Yan were quite nervous as they raised their glasses carefully.
Even after they finished their meals, Lin Shuang and Yun Ling had still not arrived.
…
Near Starlight Plaza, a group was bidding farewell to each other. Then, they got into their respective cars.
Meng Jinyang and Jiang Shenyuan had left long ago. They had to return to the capital the next day. They decided to fill in their college applications in Jiang Shenyuan’s town.
Gu Mang took out her phone. Just as she was about to send a message to Lin Shuang telling her not to come to World Restaurant, she received a call from Lin Shuang.
She accepted the call.
Lin Shuang’s voice could be heard on the other end. “Little Sister Gu, has it ended yet? Yun Ling and I are reaching Starlight Plaza. Which room are all of you in?”
Gu Mang answered rather calmly, “The dinner party has ended.”
Lin Shuang did not say anything for a few seconds before she said calmly, “It’s okay, we can go for another round.”
Gu Mang did not answer.
“Hey, Little Sister Gu, Yun Ling and I flew across half the globe just to come here. You can’t be so heartless, can you? Are you not going to have a meal with us?” Lin Shuang asked.
Tucking a hand into her pocket, Gu Mang pondered for two seconds before saying, “Alright, you guys can come here first.”
Lin Shuang said, “Okay, we’ll be there in three minutes.”
Gu Mang hung up and looked at Lu Chengzhou as she adjusted her cap. “Lin Shuang and Yun Ling are arriving soon. I’m going to have a meal with them. Why don’t you go back first?”
Before Lu Chengzhou could speak, He Yidu and Qin Fang, who were planning to leave, stopped in their tracks and looked back at Gu Mang.
Qin Fang asked, “Little sister-in-law, did you say Lin Shuang is coming?”
Gu Mang acknowledged with a hum.
He Yidu’s gaze shifted slightly as he said, “We all know Ms. Lin pretty well now. We can’t let her receive subpar treatment. It’s my treat tonight.”
Qin Fang looked dazed. “Since when did you become close to Lin Shuang?”
Gu Mang had heard Lin Shuang say that He Yidu had been investigating Lin Shuang closely. She was about to say something, but she was afraid that it would expose her.
Gu Mang looked at He Yidu and remained silent.
Lu Chengzhou held Gu Mang’s hand and said softly, “I’ll go with you.”
