  Gu Yin had always been a model student since she was young. No matter where she was, she had always been well-liked by her teachers and considered an outstanding student so she was not used to being scolded like this.

  Her face flushed. Softly, she answered, “Yes, Principal. Goodbye, Principal.”


  She bit her lip as she turned around and left stiffly. Her drooping eyes were cold and icy……

  It was absolutely silent in the meeting room.

  The parents looked at each other, finding it hard to believe that they were all so careful around a high school student.

  Mr. Yi turned towards Gu Mang. “Hi, Student Gu. I am Yi Chen’s father.”


  Gu Mang’s eyes were drooping and she knocked on the table with her fingers nonchalantly. She did not even bother looking up.

  Liang Qingru was just about to blow up when Mr. Yi threw a glance at her. She held it in and grabbed her bag tightly. Everyone else did not know how to react to Gu Mang’s attitude. Were they really going to watch helplessly as their sons get imprisoned?

  Mr. Yi smiled gently. “You see, I’ve seen the video footage of the fight that day. Indeed, Yi Chen and the others were in the wrong first but they have learned their lesson. They really cannot bear the charge of an attempted murder. If Ms. Gu would drop the case, we can discuss compensation.”


  He made himself sound very humble such that he even changed the way he addressed her.

  Gu Mang seemed to only have heard his voice then. She raised her eyelids and smiled. “I wonder what kind of compensation would be worthwhile in your eyes?”


  Hearing her say that meant that there was room for negotiation. Everyone relaxed slightly.

  Mr. Yi took out a card that he had prepared and pushed it to Gu Mang. “There is 10 million on this bank card. I don’t know if this is enough for Ms. Gu to drop the case.”


  Knowing that Gu Mang had some status in the fashion and entertainment industry, he prepared 10 million as an initial offer.

  “10 million.” Gu Mang repeated the three syllables slowly, pulling her notes. Then, she smiled slyly. “Just enough to hire a good lawyer.”


  She got up and put her hands in her pockets. She wanted to walk out.

  Everyone panicked.

  Mr. Yi’s expression changed slightly but he could still stay calm. He got up as well. “Hold up, Ms. Gu. I don’t know what Ms. Gu wants. Why don’t you just tell us? We are already prepared.”


  Gu Mang turned towards him and answered casually. “One-fifth of your company’s shares. All of you.”


  She spoke slowly in a nonchalant tone. Everyone’s expression changed instantly. The market value of one-fifth of those companies was over a billion. This was clearly daylight robbery!

  Liang Qingru glared at her with great hatred. Her eyes were red. “Gu Mang, you are looting a burning house!”


  Gu Mang tilted her head and smiled. She raised her exquisite eyebrows. She exuded a sinister aura from deep within her.

  It was as if she were saying, “That’s right, it’s daylight robbery. An opportunity given by all of you.”


  What an arrogant expression!

  Before Mr. Yi came to Ming City High School, he had already heard that Gu Mang was not easy to deal with. Now that she had spoken, it meant that there was no room for them to refuse.

  He did not waste anymore energy. He just said, “Ms. Gu, the sum is too large. We need time to consider.”


  Gu Mang nodded. Before she left, she seemed to have heard something suddenly. She turned her head and laughed lightly. “Actually, I have a piece of evidence with me. Wanna hear it?”


  Mr Yi felt his brain getting tense. He tried to probe further. “Of Yi Chen and the rest?”


  Gu Mang raised her eyebrows. She took out a flip phone and found the voice recording. She played it nonchalantly. It was a conversation of Yi Chen and the rest discussing how to deal with Gu Mang. Should they break Gu Mang’s leg or her arm?

  The expressions on the parents’ faces changed drastically.
