Lu Chengzhou raised his eyebrows and his voice was light. “If you apologize, that is your problem. Does whether or not Gu Mang chooses to pursue the matter have anything to do with you?”
Old Master Sang and Mrs. Sang’s expressions changed.
“What do you mean by that?” Mrs. Sang’s voice was tense.
Gu Mang was still smiling. She held out both hands. Lu Yī immediately handed her the lawyer’s letter respectfully.
Gu Mang threw the lawyer’s letter at Sang Xue. She did not hide her arrogance at all as she said, “See you in court.”
Sang Xue lowered her eyes subconsciously and saw that the lawyer’s letter had the official seal of the legendary Jiang Shenyuan Law Firm on it. There was a buzz in her head and her already pale face looked even more bloodless.
Given Jiang Shenyuan’s status in the law industry, he probably had thousands of cases vying for his attention. He was going against her because of Meng Jinyang.
Even if she did not reveal her feelings, they had known each other for so long. Was he intending to send her to jail?! Sang Xue’s eyes turned redder and she grabbed the sheets tightly.
When Mrs. Sang saw Gu Mang throw the lawyer’s letter in front of them, she totally panicked. “Ms. Gu, Sang Xue has already realized her mistake. I’ll get her to make a public apology and withdraw from school. Let her off just this once. Please!”
Gu Mang stuck both her hands in her pocket. She had a sly look in her eyes and the raised corners of her eyes looked cold.
“If apologies worked.” Gu Mang suppressed her laughter and her voice was low and deep. “Then why would we need prisons?”
Her eyes were cold and terrifying.
In an instant, all of Mrs. Sang’s words stuck in her throat.
The Sang family was doomed.
Because of Sang Xue’s mistake. They had to face such consequences today because they had not taken Gu Mang seriously.
…
After they left the hospital, Lu Chengzhou took Gu Mang out to eat.
Lu Chengzhou bought some baked sweet potatoes for her and asked, “Are you going to school in the afternoon or returning to rest?”
“Going to school,” Gu Mang propped her face up with her hand and answered nonchalantly.
Lu Chengzhou nodded. Just then, his phone rang. It was a message from Lu Jiu.
[Young Master Lu, a Sleeping Jade has been found. I will get someone to send it back to the capital right away.]
[Ok,] Lu Chengzhou replied. He showed Gu Mang his phone. “It’ll arrive tonight.”
Gu Mang’s mind finally relaxed.
…
After having their meal, Lu Chengzhou sent Gu Mang to school. He ordered Lu Yī to drive to the airport only after seeing that she made it past the school gate.
Gu Mang wore her baseball cap very low so only her beautiful jawline could be seen. She slung her black backpack over one shoulder and she walked in a slow and unruly manner. She gave off a powerful aura.
Class was about to start so there were many people along the way. When they saw Gu Mang, they couldn’t help but look at her. They saluted her with their glances.
The rumor of her smashing all of Sang Xue’s things had spread across the entire school.
“That big boss flipped the bed over with one hand. It was so loud that the whole building could hear it. The people from Dormitory 4 described it so vividly.”
“Sang Xue was really asking for death. Now, the Sang family is in trouble. Her retribution came so quickly.”
“Yeah. But to be honest, Big Boss Gu is so cool!”
“Go have a look at the forum. She is No. 1 on both the charts for School Beauty and School Hunk. How could she not be cool?!”
“Oh damn! She’s even in the running for ‘School Hunk’?”
“Senior Yu was the School Hunk for three consecutive years. No one expected Big Boss Gu to take his spot and she even got almost two times the votes!”
“Impressive!”
Gu Mang had her headphones on. She walked in the shade of the trees and looked down slightly to reply to Yu Zhongjing’s messages.
Yu Zhongjing said, [Master, there’s a brain surgery tomorrow. I’m not very confident about it.]
Gu Mang typed unhurriedly. [Okay.]
