Chapter 613: Big Boss Is Here To Play
Chen Liang raised his eyebrows really high. It was as if he found it hard to accept as well. “How could I lie to you? Li Mu told me that. I even confirmed it with him ten times! Gu Mang is going for it!”
Even Chen Liang, who did not partic.i.p.ate in the military training tasks had heard of Gu Mang’s name many times. It was mainly because her performance was too poor.
The military instructor who kept the scores looked at Chen Liang and his mouth twitched. “…Congrats.”
The traditional chinese medicine students were doomed.
Chen Liang was speechless.
…
Li Mu was hurt. Also, Tang Xiaoxiao could not partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion. No one else saw the traditional chinese medicine students as their compet.i.tors. But when the news that Gu Mang was going to replace Tang Xiaoxiao in the compet.i.tion spread, everyone seemed to be surprised.
“d.a.m.n! The traditional chinese medicine students are nuts! They’re letting Gu Mang go for it?!”
“I never thought they would let Gu Mang partic.i.p.ate in the a.s.sessment!”
“It’s a mess! Can Gu Mang’s poor performance be seen by others? This is going to be on the news! Then, even the school will be humiliated!”
“It’s okay, the school will definitely negotiate with the news station to cut all her footage.”
“Nothing much to add. The last position shall be reserved for the traditional chinese medicine students.”
At the law school.
Everyone sat on the floor as they waited for the military instructor to come over.
When Sangxue heard the news, she snorted. “Did you guys hear wrong? How is Gu Mang going to take part in it with such poor performance?”
Was she going to humiliate herself?
“It’s true! It’s being spread all over the place now!” A girl said with great certainty.
Another girl glanced at where the traditional chinese medicine students were, but Gu Mang was not there.
She said, “I heard from the traditional chinese medicine faculty that Gu Mang has taken leave. Could the fair weather atheist turn to G.o.d in a pinch? She must have snuck away to train.”
After all, no one would want to be humiliated on TV.
When the people nearby heard this, they looked over. “Is it too late to practice now?”
Sang Xue bit her lip and laughed. She spoke calmly, “Probably.”
…
Everyone thought that Gu Mang was practicing discreetly but she was sitting in Lu Chengzhou’s office. She had her legs up on the table. She was biting a lollipop and lying in a chair and playing with her mobile phone.
Lu Chengzhou leaned back at his desk lazily, and asked softly, “Are you going to partic.i.p.ate in the a.s.sessment compet.i.tion tomorrow?”
Gu Mang didn’t lift her head. She slowly pressed her fingers on the phone. “Just for fun.”
Qin Fang and others were sitting on the other side of the sofa. Hearing this, they all looked up to glance at Gu Mang and said nothing.
…
Capital University.
When Princ.i.p.al Ren and Yang Tianming heard the news that Gu Mang was going to partic.i.p.ate in the a.s.sessment, both of them became nervous.
After Tang Xiaoxiao was injured, they were afraid that Gu Mang would also hurt her hand. After thinking about it, the two of them felt that they should provide some reminders immediately.
On the way back to her hostel, Gu Mang received a call from Yang Tianming.
“Gu Mang, don’t feel pressured, just perform as you do normally. It’s fine if you are ranked last, don’t bother with false reputations. Don’t hurt yourself for a good rank.”
Gu Mang said nothing in return.
After Yang Tianming finished speaking, she did not wait for Gu Mang’s response. She added, “The a.s.sessment comes second, what comes first is your partic.i.p.ation. Don’t be impulsive and hurt yourself like me.”
Gu Mang answered calmly, “Got it, Professor Yang.”
…
The next day.
At six o’clock in the morning, the entire base started preparing for the a.s.sessment. All the students arrived at the training ground one after another around seven o’clock.
The mustering areas for each cla.s.s were s.p.a.ced out and the students were all with their cla.s.ses. Some stood while some sat. Gu Mang sat amongst the students casually with one of her legs stretched out straight.
Her posture was like that of a big boss.
The sun was a little dazzling, so she raised her hand to press down her baseball cap.
Almost every student who pa.s.sed by the traditional chinese medicine major’s area glanced at Gu Mang several times.
