From Xi Yan’s questions, it was clear that she was trying to imply that Yi Chen and the others had e at Gu Mang first. Gu Mang turned to look at Xi Yan and she paused. She seemed to be surprised that Xi Yan would trust her. Everyone was surprised that a teacher would actually stick up for Gu Mang and raise such questions.
The Branch mander glared at Xi Yan sharply. “The victim is already hurt and in the hospital. The most important thing is that he has been hindered from taking his exams! Gu Mang could have ruined a few boys’ futures if she did this closer to the university exams! Is there a point in asking all of these questions?”
“Of course there is.” Xi Yan stood in front of Gu Mang and spoke calmly. “”If your students from Experimental High School attacked my student Gu Mang deliberately then Gu Mang’s actions were purely out of self defense. Why should she apologize and why should she pensate?”
…
The Lu family estate.
Lu Shangjin walked out of the study room and took quick steps down the stairs as he put on his coat.
Lin Zhou was sitting in the living room and looking at Lu Yang’s latest results. Upon hearing footsteps, he turned around and saw Lu Shangjin in a hurry. He leaned forward and asked curiously. “What’s wrong? Are you going out?”
Lu Shangjin nodded. “Something happened with Gu Mang. I’m going to take a look.”
Hearing that, Lu Yang stood up immediately. “What’s wrong with Sister Mang?”
Lu Yi looked up too.
She had heard from her friends at Experimental High School that Gu Mang was acting as a supporting character for Sheng Ting. What went wrong? Lin Zhou had changed her perception of Gu Mang quite a bit after Lu Yang’s results started going up after hanging out with her. Previously, he had been the worst student in the class but now he was passing every subject. Even Chu Yao and Ling Qian’s results improved a lot as well.
They heard that Meng Jinyang was the one who helped them. This situation almost made her lose all hostility towards Gu Mang.
She was too lazy to ask about it as she was afraid it would change her perception about Gu Mang again. She just said, “Drive safely.”
Lu Shangjin uttered a soft assent.
“Dad, what happened to Sister Mang? I want to go as well.” Lu Yang put his pen down and ran towards him.
Lu Shangjin glared at Lu Yang and he stopped in his tracks.
He saw his dad pointing at him with a strict expression. “Stay at home and study hard. I don’t have time to deal with you. If you don’t pass the national exams, I will cut your allowance for a year.”
Lu Yang pouted and turned around miserably.
Lu Shangjin walked out of the door and thought of something. Then, he took out his phone and sent a message to Lu Chengzhou. He did not expect him to reply.
Lu Chengzhou was probably still at No.14 Research Center. The local area network had restrictions and it is unknown whether he could receive the message. To his surprise, right after he sent his message, a notification sprang up on his phone. It was a call.
He was stunned but he picked up.
“What happened to Gu Mang?” Lu Chengzhou’s voice was low and cold.
The chauffeur opened the door and Lu Shangjin entered. With some guilt, he said, “Fought with those five guys from Experimental High School.”
Back when Gu Mang was the subject of intense rumors on Weibo, he had been the one who had taught the boys a lesson. Who knew that those idiots would cause trouble again!
“Brother Cheng, are you going out?” Qin Fang was heard over the phone.
“Yeah, you and Old He can wait for the results here.” Lu Chengzhou took his coat and hung it on his arm. He walked out and asked Lu Shangjin. “What about her?”
“Don’t worry, Gu Mang is totally uninjured.” Upon bringing this up, Lu Shangjin felt calmer. “The five guys are all hospitalized from being beaten up. They are badly injured. Now, all their parents are yelling at the police station for someone to take responsibility.”
Lu Chengzhou wasn’t surprised. “Got it.”
…
At the hall.
The lawyer that Liang Qingru hired pulled out a Lawyer’s letter from his bag and passed it to Xi Yan. His sharp eyes made everyone feel immense pressure.
