Gu Mang stood up, bowed politely, and smiled. “Thank you miss, for taking care of for the past six months.”
Xi Yan’s eyes were slightly watery. “You flatter too much.”
Actually, she did not do much. It was her job. It was her duty as a teacher. Now she was the teacher of the top scholar on the national joint exams. Gu Mang was the one who gave her the glory. It was glory that she never dread of having.
Principal Fu watched as Gu Mang bade farewell and asked her, “Are you not coming to school anymore?”
Gu Mang answered, “When the admission passes are generated, please tell to co down and collect it.”
In other words, she would not be returning for any other purposes. The principal had expected this too. Capital University had already matriculated Gu Mang and there was no need for her to waste anymore ti at this school.
After bidding goodbye to Xi Yan and Principal Fu, Gu Mang led Gu Si out of the principal’s office.
Gu Si hauled up Gu Mang’s big black backpack. “Sis, would I stay in Ming City or go to the capital with you?”
Gu Mang answered, “Go to the capital.”
Seeing that he would not be sent away, Gu Si was all smiles. “Great!”
The morning reading period was over and chatter from every classroom block could be heard. Gu Mang took out her cell phone and intended to contact Lu Chengzhou, but she saw a ssage from Lu Yang asking where she was five minutes ago.
She replied, “Settled so matters, I’ve left.”
Just after the ssage was sent, the chat interface changed to a caller ID display. Gu Mang tapped on the ‘answer’ button.
Lu Yang’s anxious voice was heard. “Sister Mang, are you not coming to the classroom?”
“Mmh,” Gu Mang said. “Tell Jinyang and the rest.”
“Then Sister Mang, when are you coming?” Lu Yang sat in his seat. ng Jinyang, Fatty, and the others all stared at the phone in his hand.
“I’ll tell all of you when I do,” Gu Mang answered concisely.
He asked, “Sister Mang, you will still be in Ming City, right?”
“Nope.” Lu Yi was waiting in front of the school to take her to the capital.
Lu Yang sighed. “We haven’t t in over a month. We all miss you.”
Gu Mang smirked rather nonchalantly. “Don’t miss , nothing will co out of it.”
Lu Yang was speechless.
“Study hard, I’m going to hang up now.”
Gu Mang hung up the phone and put it into her pocket. She walked out of the admin building and straight to the school gates.
The security guard saw Gu Mang and asked in a friendly manner, “Leaving so soon?”
Gu Mang nodded politely. “Goodbye.”
Lu Yi’s car was parked by the car. When he saw Gu Mang leave the school building, he got out from the driver’s seat. “Ms. Gu.”
He opened the door to the back seats. Gu Mang and Gu Si hopped on board.
Gu Mang found a comfortable seat and took out her mobile phone to check the unread ssages. Without lifting her head, she said, “Go to Seal Palace first, I want to get sothing.”
Lu San responded respectfully, “Yes.”
Gu Si held onto his phone and looked at so questions from a national math competition from so ti ago. Gu Mang picked so useful ssages to reply to on her WeChat. There were tens of unread ssages from Huo Zhi. She did not even look at them. She just cleared the entire chat. Then, she switched to her gaming app and logged in.
She had not played for a period of ti but she regained her sense of familiarity after a few minutes. While she was gaming, a ssage notification popped up from the top of the screen.
“Let’s et. I’m in Ming City.”
Gu Mang swiped the notification away expressionlessly and continued gaming. They had just reached Seal Palace and Lu Yi entered the basent carpark.
“Screech!”
The car ca to a halt. Gu Mang looked up and saw a black Maybach blocking Lu Yi’s car.
The rear window was slowly lowered and the sharp profile of a man’s face appeared. He turned slightly to et Gu Mang’s gaze.
Gu Si took a deep breath. “Sis, Huo Zhi...”
