The next day.
After exiting the elevator, Lu Chengzhou and Gu Mang headed straight to the underground car park. Lu Yī and Lu Qi were waiting by the car. The latter two bowed their heads respectfully at the couple when they saw them coming. "Young Master Lu, Ms. Gu."
Upon seeing Lu Qi, Gu Mang poked the brim of her cap upwards, her delicate eyebrows rising a little.
With his head lowered, Lu Qi carefully peeked at her in awe, respect, and anxiety. His attitude was vastly different from how he had treated her in Country K.
Lu Chengzhou squeezed her fingers as he lifted his chin at him. "Lu Qi will be following you around from now on."
From the way she squinted her eyes at Lu Qi, it seemed that she disliked the idea.
Her attitude scared Lu Qi and he became even more nervous. Surely I’m not that bad...
Lu Chengzhou tilted his head closer toward Gu Mang, whispering, "He can be your driver."
"...Fine," she said.
Lu Qi’s eyes lit up in delight. That’s fine. I can be a driver if that’s what she wants. At least, she’s willing to take me on.
What a lucky fellow, thought Lu Yī as he glanced at his buddy. After being stationed in Country K for years, he’s assigned to Ms. Gu’s side as soon as he returns. Given how our group chat blew up last night, the others are envious as well. He finally got his lucky break.
...
The car came to a stop in front of Capital University.
When Gu Mang saw that Lu Chengzhou was going to get out from the other side of the car, she pulled his wrist and said, "No need to send me off."
He turned his head back and looked at her for several seconds before nodding his head. "Fine. The weather’s been cold lately. Remember to wear an extra piece of clothing when you go out. There’s food in the fridge."
She patiently listened to what he had to say before she humming a response and took her backpack from the car. She was about to get out of the vehicle when her hand on the car door’s handle suddenly froze.
"What’s wrong? Did you forget something?" Lu Chengzhou swept his gaze around him.
Turning her head back, she leaned in and gave him a quick peck on the lips before pulling away with a smile. "Do you feel secure now?"
Sitting in front, Lu Yī swiftly pressed a button and raised the partition.
Lu Qi was dumbfounded. Back in Country K, he only held hands with her and hugged her waist. They’ve progressed so far already?
Even though Lu Chengzhou was used to being snuck up on by Gu Mang, he still froze in surprise at having been kissed by her. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
Gu Mang hummed in acknowledgment as she took the snacks and opened a lollipop. She stuffed the candy in her mouth.
...
The two of them ran into Shen Qianzi and Sang Xue, who happened to be exiting the library at that moment. However, Gu Mang ignored them and carried on walking forward with her hands in her pockets as she bit into her lollipop.
When they walked past each other, Qin Yaozhi turned her head slightly to roll her eyes at them. Both the law school and the medical school combined are not as capable as Sister Mang.
Ever since Shen Qianzi embarrassed herself, many people at school could not stand her and she had even lost almost half of her Weibo’s followers. Now, she was trying to build her image as an overachiever on Weibo by flaunting that she had passed all the subjects on her first exam. This move was proving effective as she was slowly regaining her followers. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Qin Yaozhi could not understand it though. The one who scored full marks isn’t even bragging about it, yet she has the cheek to flaunt her sixty-odd marks?
Her anger surged as she recalled Shen Qianzi’s post that was still hanging around on the forum. She endured it in the end though. Following Gu Mang, she swiped her card and entered the library.
Shen Qianzi came to a stop as she turned back to look at the duo who had walked past them. "Gu Mang and Qin Yaozhi know each other?"
Sang Xue nodded as she looked at them and whispered, "Qin Yaozhi took the joint exams in Ming City. She was even in the same class as Gu Mang in high school."
That made Shen Qianzi frown. "Someone with her temper is actually willing to follow Gu Mang?"
