Other roommates looked at Gu Mang in shock and doubted their own ears. Gu Mang nodded and seemed serious. Their lips twitched.
Meng Jinyang suppressed her laughter and took out the paper that she had done from her bag. Passing it to Gu Mang, she said, “I finished this recently. Have a look at it first.”
“Mhm.” Gu Mang took the paper and got on the bed, her towel on her head.
…
The next morning.
Gu Mang passed the paper back to Meng Jinyang. Meng Jinyang was changing her clothes and did not see so Gu Mang just placed the paper back into her bag. When they were in the classroom, Shen Huan asked for her paper back to look at the steps for a question. Meng Jinyang passed it to her and began memorizing English vocabulary.
All of a sudden, Shen Huan drew in a cold breath. “D*mn, Jinyang. How could you think of two methods to solve such a difficult question?!”
Meng Jinyang was taken aback and looked. The last two Mathematics questions had two solutions. The handwriting was exactly the same. The simpler method was Gu Mang’s while the more complicated one was hers. The last time Gu Mang asked her which handwriting she preferred she wrote the exact same way as Meng Jinyang.
It really looked like her handwriting.
Shen Huan finished reading the two methods and sighed, “These two methods are impressive. I finally understand the question! Jinyang, you’re truly awesome!”
Meng Jinyang did not speak but turned to look at Gu Mang. Her eyebrows were drooping slightly as she supported her face with her hand while studying. She pursed her lips and smiled. Seeing that there were lollipops under her desk, Meng Jinyang got someone to pass them to Gu Mang.
When she received the lollipops, she removed the wrapper and put one in her mouth.
Lu Yang’s eyes could not shift away from Gu Mang’s face. Unable to hold it in, he asked, “Sister Mang, what happened to you last night?”
Gu Mang turned to look at him slowly and shot him an indifferent glance.
Lu Yang was petrified instantly. He picked up a book randomly and began flipping through it as he covered his face. “I shan’t ask, I shan’t ask.”
Xi Yan was absent during morning reading. Everyone in the classroom read lethargically.
Before morning reading ended, Xi Yan suddenly appeared at the back door and tapped Gu Mang’s shoulder.
She turned around.
Xi Yan inched closer to her. “Yi Chen and the boys’ parents are all here. They wish to speak to you.”
Gu Mang said nothing.
Xi Yan gave it a thought. “If you don’t wish to, it’s alright.”
Gu Mang raised her eyebrows and smiled wickedly. “Why wouldn’t I go since they brought themselves here.”
Lu Yang saw Gu Mang stand up with her hands in her pockets and leave with Xi Yan.
His curiosity was piqued instantly. Poking Fatty who sat in front of him, he asked, “Fatty, go find out if anything significant happened at Experimental High School last night.”
…
The science staff room was on the same floor as Class Twenty. When Gu Yin left the staffroom, she saw Xi Yan and Gu Mang’s silhouettes. She paused before following them while carrying Luo Songhua’s lesson plan.
Year Three’s meeting room was filled with people.
“Principal Fu, I’m hoping that you can get Gu Mang to withdraw the lawsuit. We’re each willing to donate a building to Ming City High School.” Yi Chen’ father was a well-known entrepreneur. He had never bowed down to others but he did it now for the sake of his son.
“Yes, yes, yes. As long as Gu Mang is willing to drop the lawsuit, you can state any terms,” the other parents seconded.
They were all pleading with him.
Principal Fu smiled. “Since the matter concerns Gu Mang, I shan’t meddle in it. Why not wait for her to come and hear what she says.”
He dared not to meddle in Gu Mang’s affairs since she was surrounded by the rich and powerful. Not only were her supporters big in Ming City, there were even some big shots from the capital as well. He just wanted to work with dignity till retirement with the hope that a top student would come from Ming City High School.
Upon hearing his words, the parents looked at each other. Without saying anything further, they waited for Gu Mang to arrive.
