The Sheng family did indeed leave through the back door.
As soon as they left the hall, Jiang Baocu sent Miss Zheng, her aunt’s secretary, back ho first.
She went to dinner with the Sheng family.
"...Senior Brother Gu has already made a reservation, we’ll head straight there," Sheng Tang said.
Sheng Tang’s parents and grandmother were a bit surprised but not too shocked.
Only Jiang Baocu almost dropped her jaw.
"Gu-Gu Shixiong?" She was stunned, "Which Senior Brother Gu?"
Grandma looked at Sheng Tang in bewildernt, "Is there another Senior Brother Gu?"
Sheng Tang laughed, "No, I only know Gu Shiting well, not familiar with anyone else."
After she said that, without minding Jiang Baocu’s thunderstruck expression, she directly told her, "Gu Shiting."
Jiang Baocu: "..."
She had long suspected that Sheng Tang and Gu Shiting were quite familiar, but to the extent of having a family al together?
This...
Just how close were they?
Her whole worldview was severely shaken.
Sheng Tang laughed.
Jiang Baocu had her own driver, but she insisted on having Sheng Tang sit with her.
"Tell !" Jiang Baocu couldn’t contain her curiosity, "Do you really know Gu Shiting? How did you et him? Tell a bit."
Sheng Tang looked at her seriously, "You mustn’t tell anyone else."
"I won’t, I swear!" Jiang Baocu said.
She knew Sheng Tang trusted her, otherwise, she wouldn’t have let her join the dinner today.
Sheng Tang thought for a mont, "We t in October. At that ti, he fell into the water, and I was the one who rescued him. We’ve known each other since then."
Jiang Baocu: "..."
What the heck.
That explanation said nothing at all.
"We’re good friends, we hang out quite often," Sheng Tang said, "But it’s better to keep a low profile at school."
Jiang Baocu nodded.
She also thought of Yang Mingming.
"Oh dear, Sheng Tang!" Jiang Baocu suddenly said, "That Yang Mingming, it’s well known in the school that she likes Gu Shiting. Would she harm you?"
"Yes, she tried to run over last ti," Sheng Tang said.
Jiang Baocu: "..."
This explosive piece of news, Sheng Tang had actually never told her.
Jiang Baocu was ready to bond over a mutual enemy, urging Sheng Tang to tell her the details.
Sheng Tang spoke lightly.
She didn’t seem to care, and she spoke clearly.
Only then did Jiang Baocu recall, "Didn’t shortly after that, your father’s student falsely accuse him?"
"Yes, the two events are connected," Sheng Tang said, "But they haven’t found any evidence linking it to Yang Mingming."
Jiang Baocu was still very angry.
She was both angry and sowhat powerless.
The status of the Yang family was simply untouchable by ordinary people. Even if the Jiang and Sheng families combined forces, they couldn’t match up.
If they were bullied by Yang Mingming, they could only endure it.
"I’m so pissed," Jiang Baocu’s little heart was filled with resentnt.
Justice doesn’t always prevail.
Sotis, the oppressed were as fragile as straw, completely lacking any resistance.
"Don’t be mad," Sheng Tang smiled, indifferent to the matter.
The car was on its way to the restaurant.
As they got closer, Jiang Baocu was still wondering just how close Sheng Tang and Gu Shiting really were.
Until they entered the private room.
The private room was brightly lit, warmly heated, with a soft, beautiful lody playing.
Gu Shiting had already been waiting for a while.
He stood up, with no smile on his face, yet his deanor and tone were extrely polite and considerate, "Grandma, Uncle, Auntie, please have a seat."
Jiang Baocu’s jaw almost dropped.
He... He indeed knew Sheng Tang, and had even t her family.
The two of them...
While shocked, Jiang Baocu was secretly delighted.
She thought she would never have the chance to et soone as powerful as Gu Shiting in her life, but thanks to Sheng Tang, she could now have dinner with him.
