Lu Chengzhou’s eyes turned cold and he looked a little anti-social. “When is the news conference for Lan Ting’s new product launch?”


  He Yidu didn’t know so he looked to the man sitting opposite him. “Ji Heng, how’s the preparation for the new product launch?”


  If they didn’t use this opportunity to do a product launch, the money Old Qin spent to get the topic trending would go to waste.

  This really wasn’t up to Ji Heng to decide. “I need to wait for Gu Mang’s final design draft.”


  “I’ll send it to you when I get back,” Gu Mang said casually, rubbing her finger against the mouth of the milk tea cup.

  Ji Heng nodded. “Okay, I’ll tell my team to prepare for the product launch.”


  After dinner, they left the barbecue stall. Lu Chengzhou went to his car. Gu Mang was wearing a baseball cap, standing at the side of the road, her knees bent as she played games on the phone. Jiang Shenyuan glanced at Meng Jinyang who was throwing some rubbish away in the distance. Looking back, his gaze fell on Gu Mang’s phone screen.

  Even though her fingers were moving slowly, the way she was playing the game was amazing.

  He thought for a moment. “Gu Mang, you probably don’t want to hear about how He Yidu dealt with the Experimental High School. It was quite ruthless.”


  The female leader who scolded Gu Mang got the worst of it. Everything that He Yidu did was done the way Lu Chengzhou wanted it.

  Gu Mang said nothing.

  Jiang Shenyuan thought of Lu Chengzhou and Gu Mang’s close relationship and he frowned slightly. “Don’t blame me for being naggy. Those guys do everything to the extreme. They believe in taking the weed out by their roots and they never give people a way out. It’s dangerous to hang around these people.”


  Gu Mang didn’t look up. “Lu Chengzhou isn’t a good person, I know that.”


  Hearing that, Jiang Shenyuan sighed a breath of relief. “It’s good that you understand.”


  Gu Mang looked up. Her side profile was so pretty. She gave Jiang Shenyuan a look. “Coincidentally, I’m not a good person either.”


  She smiled at him. Just then, Meng Jinyang trotted back. “What are you guys chatting about?”


  The Gu Mang put her arms on Meng Jinyang’s shoulder, put away her cell phone, and squinted slightly. “It’s nothing. I’m a little tired.”


  Lu Chengzhou’s SUV drove by and stopped in front of them.

  Lu Chengzhou got out of the car and saw Gu Mang leaning against Meng Jinyang as though she were spineless. “You’re sleepy.”


  Gu Mang hummed, stood up straight, and opened the car door. “Jinyang, get in the car.”


  Meng Jinyang glanced at Jiang Shenyuan. “Gu Mang and I will be going now.”


  Jiang Shenyuan nodded with a gentle expression and passed the schoolbag over to her.

  After taking it, Meng Jinyang bent down and got into the car. Gu Mang also got in the car.

  Jiang Shenyuan watched the car drive away for a few seconds before looking away……

  Gu Mang sat comfortably in her seat and played a game when a message popped up on screen. She ignored it and waited until the game was over before checking it. It was from Jiang Shenyuan.

  “You are a good person.” Affirming words.

  Gu Mang narrowed her eyes. She didn’t want to reply. When she was about to start up a new game, another message arrived.

  “Lu Chengzhou is a bad influence, a dressed up animal, a pseudo cultured scumbag.”


  The second message was sent ten minutes after the first one. Lawyer Jiang had pondered for some time before sending the message.

  Gu Mang raised her pretty eyebrows, glancing at the man in the driver’s seat in front of her. She stared for a while before looking away. She didn’t take Jiang Shenyuan’s words to heart at all.

  Back at Seal Palace, Gu Mang went to take a shower first.

  When she came out, Lu Chengzhou made some honey water as usual and passed it to her. “Drink some.”


  Meng Jinyang was doing papers when she heard noises and looked up.

  Gu Mang took the glass of water very naturally, walked over, and sat down opposite her. “Is the paper difficult?”
