Meanwhile.
Lu Yang asked about everyone’s results in the group chat.
Shen Huan scored 652. Taking her province ranking into account, she could totally make it into Capital Jiao Tong University.
Chu Yao scored two marks higher than Lu Yang, 568. He intended to enter the police academy with Lu Yang.
Fatty scored 551. He groaned about wanting to get into the police academy, but with his physique, there was no way that he would make it through. So, he listened to his parents’ advice and intended to go into finance. Since he could not be a police officer, he just had to be prepared to inherit his parents’ fortune.
Everyone was very satisfied with their scores.
They were so satisfied that everyone in the group cried and called Gu Mang ‘Dad,’ saying that Gu Mang had contributed greatly to their educations.
The ‘filial childrens” actions were really touching.
But this father could not sense their filial piety at all. Gu Mang threw her phone to the side and she talked to Lu Chengzhou.
Chu Yao said, “Brother Yang, Fatty’s parents and mine would like to take Sister Mang and Jinyang out for a meal. Do they have time?”
Fatty added, “Yeah, Brother Yang, could you help me ask Sister Mang and Jinyang?”
Shen Huan said, “My parents too!!!”
Lu Yang looked up at Gu Mang who was seated on the opposite sofa. “Sister Mang, look at the chat messages. Chu Yao, Fatty, and Shen Huan’s parents want to treat you and Jinyang to a meal.”
Gu Mang leaned back lazily, clicked into WeChat and took a look. The word “Dad” was all over the screen. Meng Jinyang saw it too and she couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
When Lu Shangjin heard what Lu Yang said, he thought about it for two seconds, and said, “How about this, we call everyone on along, including your form teacher and principal.”
Lin Zhou nodded and her face was full of joy. “Let’s just treat it as a celebration for your promotions.”
Although Lu Yang’s performance was not as good as Lu Yi’s, it was the most surprising result.
Lu Shangjin looked at Gu Mang. “Gu Mang, how is it?”
Gu Mang looked up and said casually, “Ah, you decide.”
Lu Shangjin immediately called World Restaurant to book a private room. Lin Zhou contacted the principal and Xi Yan from Ming City High School.
While calling, Gu Mang’s cell phone also rang. It was Lin Shuang.
“I’ll take a call,” Gu Mang said softly. She pulled her hand out of Lu Chengzhou’s palm.
“Mmh.” Lu Chengzhou picked up his cup of tea.
Gu Mang walked towards the panoramic window with her phone in hand. She picked it up. “It’s me.”
“Little sister Gu.” Lin Shuang’s bright voice was heard from the other end. “Yun Ling and I plan to come to Ming City. My brother did very well, shall we celebrate tomorrow?”
“Are you guys coming over?” Gu Mang stood by the panoramic window casually.
Lin Shuang pouted and looked at the man beside her in despair. “Oh right, when Yun Ling heard that I was going to Ming City, he insisted on tagging along so he could see you.”
Yun Ling glared at her.
“Alright,” Gu Mang answered. “We will be at World Restaurant tonight, if you can make it, come over.”
Lin Shuang glanced at the time. It was a little too late. She turned and told Yun Ling, “Get the private jet here now.”
Yun Ling gave her an okay sign and immediately went to make the call.
Meanwhile, Gu Mang leaned on the window frame. “Oh right, I have to remind you about something.”
“What?” Lin Shuang asked.
Gu Mang answered casually, “Lu Chengzhou and the others will be here too. Don’t expose anything.”
Lin Shuang rolled her eyes in disdain, “Speaking of that, I have to mention He Yidu, the scumbag. He has been freaking checking on me. In the end? Ha, he can’t figure anything out. Don’t you think that’s very annoying?”
He had already checked on her before. This time, he was investigating even deeper. She had had to limit her movements recently because of it.
Gu Mang raised her eyebrow. “Do you need me to solve the problem for you?”
“Nope.” Lin Shuang rejected her even though she wanted Gu Mang to get involved. “I can handle it. I’ll play along with him.”
“Mmh,” Gu Mang answered. “Let me know when you’ve arrived.”
Lin Shuang said, “Sure.”
