Chapter 65: How Is That Person Doing?
Just then, the staffroom door opened. “Gu Mang.”
The man’s voice was clean and magnetic. His enunciation was exceptionally clear. It was an occupational disease.
Gu Mang turned her head.
Jiang Shenyuan walked in front while the female assistant followed behind him, placing a cup of coffee and a cup of honey pomelo drink on the coffee table.
Jiang Shenyuan placed the documents in his hands onto the desk, strode over, and sat down opposite her. “How are you doing? Coming to the capital without even informing me, is this a surprise visit?”
His tone gave off a sense of familiarity.
Gu Mang took a sip of the honey pomelo drink and said tepidly, “It’s regarding Jinyang.”
Jiang Shenyuan’s expression became tense. “What’s up with Jinyang?”
Gu Mang’s eyelids peeled open as she stared at him with sharp, black eyes like a cold lake. “The person who hurt Jinyang will be released soon. I want you to make an appeal again.”
Jiang Shenyuan was relieved of the tense feeling in his heart. “I know what you mean. It just so happens that the law was changed this year. Don’t worry, I’ll handle it.”
Gu Mang nodded absent-mindedly. “How is that person doing?” Her voice was gloomy.
Jiang Shenyuan smiled. “After you beat him up, he went in wighing 180 jin and came out weighing 100 jin. He’s practically skin and bones. It wore down his spirits and he learned some lessons. How do you think he’s doing?
Him not doing well was good.
Gu Mang’s lips curled up with frostiness. “I’m very satisfied with how things turned out.”
Jiang Shenyuan picked up the cup of coffee and reminisced about the past. There was a sudden cool flash in his eyes. “There are rules everywhere. The vicious people who attack the old and weak will be punished. He will not have a good life in prison either.”
Gu Mang stopped talking.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Shenyuan said, “Let’s talk about you. What have you been doing recently? I heard that your parents…”
“Accident,” Gu Mang said concisely. She didn’t want to hear him ask any further so she simply said, “I sent Gu Si away and Gu Yin went with my uncle.”
Jiang Shenyuan had expected that. Those relatives were an outrageous bunch who would only do things for profit. But he wanted to see their expressions when they finally found Gu Mang’s identity. It would be very interesting to see.
He said, “What are you doing lately?”
“Going to school,” Gu Mang said casually. “Preparing for university entrance exams.”
Jiang Shenyuan almost spat out the coffee. He couldn’t believe it. “Are you okay? Why are you taking university entrance exams? If you want to go to university, simple, I’ll just send you directly to the best law school in the country. Why bother with such a roundabout way?”
Gu Mang smiled, crossed her legs, her hand propping up her face. She slowly said, “If I want to enter university, would I even need your help?”
Her tone was extremely haughty. Jiang Shenyuan choked. She was right. Why would the big boss need his help for something like that?
Gu Mang cocked an eyebrow, looking especially sinister. “I’m accompanying Jinyang to school.”
Jiang Shenyuan was startled as he looked at her. “She can go to school? Isn’t she afraid of crowds? She has recovered already?”
Gu Mang nodded. “Don’t worry about it for now. Just get the thing that I talked about done.”
“Don’t worry.” Jiang Shenyuan looked at the time. “Do you want to have dinner together?”
“No need. I only took one day off and have to go back to school.”
With that said, the girl stood up. She put on her cap and threw the bag onto her back.
