Backstage, there was a dead silence.
Lu Chengzhou had heard of the case before. It was big news and pretty serious. Because the offender was ntally ill he didn’t receive a heavy sentence and it caused a huge controversy. It was also because of this case that everyone began to pay attention to loopholes in the law and worked on closing them.
There were no more traces of this case on the Internet now. Perhaps the authorities had removed all the related information in order to protect ng Jinyang. Gu Mang closed her eyes and her breathing was heavy.
ng Jinyang’s voice brought back nightmares that had haunted her for many years, tearing at her mind. The girl was lying on the ground, covered with scars. All Gu Mang could see was her.
“Later I was discharged from the hospital and went to school. There were boys in school who laughed at and lifted my clothes to see my ostomy bag. They ridiculed . Gu Mang beat them up and ended up getting expelled.” ng Jinyang’s eyes were red and she was on the verge of collapsing.
Many parents looked at ng Jinyang in shock. Apparently they had heard about this case as well and their eyes were filled with sympathy. But there were other parents who looked at ng Jinyang just like the boys did back then at school. It was a look of disgust as though ng Jinyang were a piece of dirt.
The good and the evil were clearly distinguishable.
ng Jinyang continued, saying, “I’m standing here today and talking about this because I don’t think that I should hide from people just because of what happened. As long as I live, life would treat well. Moreover, it’s the perpetrator who should be the target of scorn. It is he who deserves to be punished by the law and he is the one who should be looked at with disdain. I was the victim.”
The large assembly center went silent.
“In the sa way, Gu Mang is not in the wrong. She isn’t a bad student and she is my goddess,” ng Jinyang said, solemnly and clearly. After taking a deep breath, her tone llowed. “That’s all I want to say. If anyone doesn’t believe , you can ask Gu Yin of Class One. Thank you, everyone.”
All the teachers looked with astonishnt as ng Jinyang bowed and walked away.
They couldn’t imagine how much courage it took for a seventeen year old girl to recount such a story.
In fact, in the years since the incident ng Jinyang’s life had also returned to normal. As long as she didn’t say anything, no one would ever know that sothing like that had ever happened to her.
She didn’t need to rember the nightmare either.
But she said it for Gu Mang.
Because Gu Mang saved her life.
...
On the screen everyone watched ng Jinyang leave the stage but Principal Fu was still stunned as he watched, expressionless.
Lu Chengzhou had been watching Gu Mang while holding her cold hand.
Gu Mang slowly opened her frosty eyes. The fierce aura had not subsided but instead had grown even colder.
The raised corner of her eyes gave off a bad vibe.
