Chapter 239: The One Time When She Scored Full Marks For All Subjects Ten Years Ago

Just then, a man said, “Looks like I’m not late. I thought I would have to see you in the detention center.”

Everyone looked over in the direction of the voice. A man in a suit walked in slowly.

Upon seeing the man who arrived, the lawyer’s expression turned drastically and he mumbled, “Jiang Shenyuan...”

There was no one who didn’t know Jiang Shenyuan in the legal business. His face was like that of a saviour. He had turned around many cases in the past and saved many lives.

Lu Chengzhou narrowed his eyes, leaned closer to Gu Mang’s ear, and whispered, “You called Jiang Shenyuan from the capital instead of looking for me?”

Gu Mang turned slightly and looked at him quietly. Jiang Shenyuan was a pretty good lawyer and everyone knew him. Lu Chengzhou stared at her black, clear eyes, and said nothing more.

After a long while, Gu Mang finally said, “Okay, I’ll look for you next time.”

Lu Chengzhou was speechless.

Jiang Shenyuan walked up to Gu Mang as she stood up and said, “I will leave this to you, then. Jinyang will start to worry if I don’t go back soon.”

Her cell phone had kept ringing while she was at Experimental High School. It was probably Meng Jinyang calling to ask when she would be coming back.

Jiang Shenyuan nodded and took out a lawyer’s letter. “On behalf of my client, Gu Mang, I’m suing Yi Chen and the other four for attempted murder.”

Liang Qingru’s legs felt like they were made of jelly and she was so flustered she couldn’t speak. She stood there with a pale face, out of her wits. Everyone had expected Gu Mang to use self-defense as the excuse to protect herself. Instead, she countered by accusing them of “attempted murder.” The evidence was enough to convict Yi Chen and the others.

Even if Gu Mang had killed them, she wouldn’t have to bear any responsibility. Liang Qingru’s lawyer had never seen such a crafty tactic in his many years of practice. This was what Jiang Shenyuan was capable of?

Gu Mang put on her baseball cap.

Before leaving, she turned to look at the form teacher. “You were saying that Ming City High School stole Experimental High School’s top students?”

Her eyes were dark and icy.

The form teacher pursed her lips and clenched her fists. “Is that wrong? What are you trying to say?”

“You’re still very proud.” Gu Mang chuckled and raised an eyebrow. “Even without those students, the top student would still not be from Experimental High School.”

Lu Shangjin, who was playing on his phone, looked up in astonishment. He suddenly remembered that about ten years ago, there was one occasion when Gu Mang scored full marks in all her subjects.

“Little Xi, tomorrow is the last day to register for Best Year Three Teacher. Remember to get the school to register your name. I’ll help you get it,” Gu Mang said insipidly.

Xi Yan was confused and didn’t understand why she said that. Given her qualifications, she wasn’t the best teacher in the city, much less the entire nation, and Gu Mang was saying that she would win the national award for her? With that said, Gu Mang nodded and took her leave.

Holding her scarf in one hand, and Lu Chengzhou’s wrist in the other hand, she walked out. The policemen standing around them immediately took a step back to make way for them.

Everyone watched as Gu Mang and Lu Chengzhou left.

Outside the police station.

Lu Chengzhou was walking half a step slower than Gu Mang. He looked down at his wrist and Gu Mang’s slender, pretty fingers.

When she walked up to the front of the car, Gu Mang turned to look at him.

Lu Chengzhou looked back at her, their gazes unflinching.
