Chapter 581: Nation-Wide Humiliation

Gu Mang stopped in her tracks as she coldly narrowed her dark eyes at the blank paper in her hand. Someone had swapped her script.

The counselor, upon noticing that Gu Mang had suddenly stopped walking, halted in confusion. She was just about to ask her what was going on when she saw the blank sheet of paper. Whatever she had wanted to say got stuck in her throat. She looked up at Gu Mang, who appeared relatively calm, and asked patiently, “What’s wrong? Did you get the wrong paper?”

The counselor glanced in the direction of the podium where the vice principal had just started to give his speech. They had roughly about five minutes before it was Gu Mang’s turn. Her expression became slightly tense. “There’s not much time left. You should quickly go back to your seat and get the script.”

Gu Mang, however, stood rooted to the spot, the air around her blazing. When the counselor noticed her countenance, her heart thumped hard. Carefully, she probed, “Did someone switch it?”

Gu Mang gave an irritated grunt in response. After returning to the dorm yesterday, she had stuffed the script, along with the rest of her belongings, into her backpack. She had not taken it out until now, but it had mysteriously been swapped with a blank sheet of paper. It was obvious that someone was out to get her, so they deliberately swapped the script.

The counselor panicked at that, having never encountered such a problem during the military training’s assembly before. It’s almost Gu Mang’s turn, but she’s lost her script. What should we do now? That speech was pretty wordy and wasn’t even written by her so she probably doesn’t remember much of it.

Lu Chengzhou had been keeping tabs on his fiancée the entire time from the corner of his eyes. When he sensed that something was wrong on their end, he immediately strode over to them. Likewise, Qin Fang, who had just come down from the stage, realized that Gu Mang might be encountering some trouble. He, too, immediately ran over.

“What’s the matter?” asked Lu Chengzhou the moment he stopped in front of the two women.

Although the counselor did not know who the two newcomers were, she could tell that they were not ordinary citizens. Anxiously, she told them, “Someone has swapped Gu Mang’s script.”

Qin Fang’s expression became serious. “Who’s the culprit?” Who dared touch this big boss’s stuff?!

“We have no idea.” The counselor shook her head helplessly. Inwardly, though, she knew that someone, out of jealousy, had deliberately set Gu Mang up for embarrassment.

Throughout this exchange, Lu Chengzhou’s gaze remained fixed on Gu Mang, whose lips were pressed into a tight line. Fury and annoyance were plainly written all over her face.

Lu Chengzhou’s glaring presence soon attracted the attention of Principal Ren, who deemed him as important as Buddha. The principal knew right away that something must have happened. He, together with Yang Tianming and two other leaders, hastily came over. As soon as they saw the white paper in Gu Mang’s hand, they understood what was going on. There was a problem with the script.

Principal Ren’s heart was in his mouth as he snuck a glance at Lu Chengzhou, who was obviously furious. His face was dark and solemn. Principal Ren had seen how Lu Chengzhou treated Gu Mang and he had heard how the man had effortlessly dealt with several respectable capital families who had offended Gu Mang at the Qin family’s banquet. Should he flare up here, there was no telling how this military training would turn out.

Right at that moment, the vice principal finished his speech, saying, “Lastly, we wish you success during the military training. Thank you.”

Thoroughly flustered, the counselor wrung her fingers anxiously. “What do we do? It’s Gu Mang’s turn to be up on stage.”

Things were different this year. As approved by the university’s media department, the national news would be recording the entire month-long training session to make a documentary, which would be broadcasted to everyone on air.

The counselor’s heart thumped wildly against her chest as she looked at the cameramen and their recording equipment. Gu Mang is going to be humiliated in front of everyone and the medical school’s reputation might be adversely affected as well.
