Chapter 719: Accident! What’s The Use Of Apologizing?!
Gu Mang sent Lu Qi a message in advance. The moment that she left the World Restaurant, she saw an SUV with a familiar license plate parked on the road opposite her.
She looked over. Lu Qi had already gotten out of the car and was walking towards her.
Lu Qi lowered his head respectfully as he approached. “Ms. Gu.”
Gu Mang responded with a hum. When everyone saw Lu Qi, they looked shocked. Lu Qi looked feminine and delicate, and he was often mistaken for a girl. But when he wore casual men’s clothing, everyone couldn’t help but stare longer.
Lu Qi’s expression remained. Clearly, he was used to it.
Seeing that there was someone there to pick Gu Mang up, the others said, “Junior, we shall leave first. See you tomorrow.”
Gu Mang bid them goodbye politely. “Ah, see you tomorrow.”
When they had all left, Gu Mang looked away and crossed the road.
When Gu Mang got in the car, she raised her eyebrows when she saw the cake, macarons, and milk tea on the back seat.
Lu Qi was still standing by the door. He explained respectfully, “Young Master Lu was afraid that you would eat too little at dinner so he made me buy these for you.”
Gu Mang ate rather well so she was not hungry. As she looked at the pile of food, she opened the box of macarons and put half of them into the bag with the cake. Then, she put the other half of the box with the other food and got out of the car.
When Lu Qi saw this, he took a few steps back immediately and stood to the side. He asked in confusion, “Ms. Gu, what are you doing?”
Gu Mang held the milk tea and the plastic bag with the cake. In a calm voice, she answered, “Wait here.”
With that, Gu Mang took out her phone and sent a voice message as she walked towards the school gates. Lu Qi understood. Ms. Gu intended to give them to her friends.
...
Meng Jinyang had just returned from the library and she was about to shower when her phone rang suddenly.
She paused slightly on the way to the bathroom and put the towel and pajamas on the back of her chair. She picked up the phone and smile when she saw that it was from Gu Mang. Sshe accepted the call.
“Where are you?” She heard Gu Mang’s lazy voice from the other end.
“In my dorm room,” Meng Jinyang answered. Then, she asked casually, “What’s the matter?”
Gu Mang said, “I brought some food for you. I’m reaching your place in five minutes.”
When Meng Jinyang heard that she was already arriving, she had no time to respond. She answered, “Then I’ll head downstairs to wait for you.”
Gu Mang replied, “Sure.”
Meng Jinyang hung up and looked around her table. She quickly divided the dried nuts, fruits, and candy snacks on the table in half, and found a paper bag to put them in. With that done, she was ready to head downstairs to wait for Gu Mang.
When she turned around, her bag accidentally hit the spoon in Sang Xue’s cup which was on the table.
The cup was dragged along the table and teetered on the edge before dropping.
Meng Jinyang tried to grab it. In the end, not only did she not manage to catch it, but she was also scalded by the hot water in Sang Xue’s cup.
Clang!
A loud noise rang out in the dormitory. The cup fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
“Damn, what happened?” someone asked from elsewhere.
Sang Xue, who had been sitting on the top bunk craned her neck to look down.
When Sang Xue saw that her cup was broken, her face darkened. She said angrily, “Meng Jinyang! What are you doing?!”
She got out of her bed immediately.
Meng Jinyang frowned and apologized, looking guilty. “I’m sorry, my plastic bag accidentally hooked onto your spoon and it pulled your cup along with it...”
Sang Xue looked at the cup that Meng Jinyang had broken and she looked really upset. “What’s the use of apologizing?! Can it return my cup to its original state?!”
She never liked Meng Jinyang to begin with. After all, Meng Jinyang had taken her spot in the International Mock Trial Competition. In the afternoon, she was also there when Qin Yaozhi humiliated her in front of many people at the entrance of the cafeteria.
Her cup being broken wa the last straw. Her eyes burned full of hatred and fury.
