Chapter 203: Gu Dongxing Is Here
Chapter 203 Gu Dongxing Arrives
Upon hearing Jiang Mengyu’s words about taking the matter to the principal, Chu Zisong instantly felt rage.
"Aren’t you afraid of getting punished for premature love?"
Jiang Mengyu glared back at him fearlessly: "I stand upright and thus am not afraid of a crooked shadow. As I’ve already explained, my conversation with Wu Jiangsheng at the pond was to clarify the rumors and slander spread by Jiang Huaiyu, not about any premature love.
As for Wu Jiangsheng grabbing my hand, it was just because he got excited hearing that I was willing to help him with tutoring; we’re certainly not in a romantic relationship.
Who made the rule that a boy and girl holding hands means they’re in love? Have we ever said things like ’I love you’? Have we written love letters? Most importantly, who has any evidence that goes beyond our friendship? But—"
Jiang Mengyu pointed at Jiang Huaiyu: "Regarding the slander Jiang Huaiyu has spread about me, not only do we have her and her three hired classmates’ written confessions.
Besides that, we also have photos taken by Shen Qi, who overheard Jiang Huaiyu paying Wang Ya, Xiao Hua, and Lin Yuying to spread rumors.
I don’t know why, Director Chu, you are so fixated on pinning this groundless accusation of premature love on me and yet refuse to address the ironclad evidence of Jiang Huaiyu’s slander and bribery.
Could there be some kind of deal between the two of you?"
Chu Zisong was furious: "Jiang Mengyu, do you think that just because you claim to have a fiancé who’s a factory director, I would fear you? I’ll tell you this, no factory director means anything in my eyes!"
Suddenly, a voice interjected.
"Oh? So a factory director doesn’t mean anything in your eyes? Then tell me, what kind of ’zhang’ (director/head) would be worth your attention?"
Jiang Mengyu looked up and to her surprise, it was Gu Dongxing who had arrived; she was so astonished that she was lost for words.
Chu Zisong followed the voice and saw a strikingly handsome man entering the school and walking towards the pond.
He had a tall and straight posture, eyes like stars, facial features sharp as if chiseled, a high nose, and lips of perfect thickness — strikingly handsome, like a Heavenly God.
The presence of such a man made Chu Zisong feel a sense of ashamed inferiority.
He immediately looked up: "Who are you? Don’t you know that one can’t simply walk into a school?"
As he asked this, they heard Wu Jiangsheng exclaim in surprise: "Gu Dongxing?"
Logically, Wu Jiangsheng should have called Gu Dongxing ’Uncle Gu’, as he was of the same generation as his father.
But Gu Dongxing was just too young, only twenty-six years old. And being seventeen himself, feeling all grown up, Wu Jiangsheng didn’t like to call him ’Uncle’ anymore and addressed him as ’Gu Dongxing’ when they met.
His appearance at the school today was utterly surprising and he couldn’t help but exclaim.
Since Wu Jiangsheng’s parents were often not at home, he usually stayed at school, not even going home on Saturdays.
Hence, he had no idea that Gu Dongxing had gotten a fiancée.
Previously, when Jiang Mengyu mentioned that she had a fiancé named Gu Dongxing, he didn’t believe it, thinking Jiang Mengyu was just making it up to intimidate Chu Zisong.
But the arrival of Gu Dongxing shattered his fantasy.
Jiang Mengyu truly had a fiancé!
And not just any fiancé, but the peer of his father, Gu Dongxing — the man who had once made great achievements on the battlefield and then retired to start a factory.
If it had been another man, he might have had the chance to compete, but Gu Dongxing... how could he compete with that?
His glass heart, shattered.
Just as shattered was Shen Qi, whose face turned pale as his heart broke.
Shen Qi was a proud individual; not even the girls from the courtyard could catch his eye, let alone those from the school.
But he had once seen Jiang Mengyu bravely step in to chase away a group of hoodlums bullying a little girl, and since then, her figure had found a place in his heart.
