Chen Gu's eyes brightened; this little girl seemed quite sensible.
However, he no longer needed to test Big Rabbit. He could tell from her very first sentence that she had never met the President before.
So Chen Gu replied with four characters: "Continue the task."
The response came quickly: "That's great! *Throws confetti* Let's meet at Star Corner City in two days."
Then, Big Gold-Toothed Cowboy Rabbit sent a slew of hotel information that had already been booked in advance.
Chen Gu didn't reply again. He began to consider the feasibility of Qing Ruyan impersonating the "President." Slowly, a plan took shape in his mind.
The next day was Monday, and Chen Gu went to class as usual. That afternoon, during physical training, he noticed Darkray was distracted and had nearly gotten injured by the equipment.
Teacher Ouyang sighed and said, "Darkray, you don't have to train today. I'll give you the day off. Go home."
Darkray, looking downcast, nodded. "Thank you, Teacher."
He didn't even shower before leaving with his backpack.
Chen Gu caught up and asked, "Is something bothering you?"
Darkray gave a bitter smile and shook his head. "Nothing, Brother Chen. I'm just a bit tired. I'm heading back first."
When Chen Gu returned, Mao Yisheng was standing beside him and sighed, "Every family has its own problems. Darkray's dad has been locked up again."
Chen Gu understood. It was Darkray's family issue, and since Darkray didn't want to talk about it, Chen Gu, of course, wouldn't interfere.
After training, the combat exchange class took place. Class 9's opponents, once again, turned out to be Class 4.
Zhao Junzhi was still attending school, but he had become much more low-profile than before and didn't volunteer to fight in this exchange class.
Chen Gu had been a little worried about Liu Shichan, but as it turned out, she didn't come to class that day. He inquired and found out she had taken leave for a couple of days due to some family matters.
Chen Gu enjoyed a rare, relaxing combat exchange class.
After school, Chen Gu called the Gorilla. "Where are you? I'm coming to find you."
The Gorilla was at home. Chen Gu asked again, "Is Man Suling there?"
The Gorilla was annoyed. "I'm at home! I'm at home! Why would Man Suling be in my house? Let me tell you, I'm not *that* kind of producer!"
Chen Gu sneered, "I don't care what kind of person you are. In my eyes, you're only one kind: a super moron!"
The Gorilla cursed loudly. After a bout of bickering on the phone, Chen Gu finally said, "I need to see Man Suling about something. Call her over too."
The Gorilla habitually taunted him. "She's a future diva, already an A-list star! You think you can just see her whenever you want?"
Still, he called Man Suling over. When Chen Gu arrived, Man Suling was already waiting in the room.
Chen Gu entered and smiled at the Gorilla. Then, his demeanor changed abruptly. Without hesitation, he drew his blade and slashed!
"Raging Inferno Blade!"
One slash to make you kneel and call me Daddy! Hahaha!
BOOM—
A powerful aura erupted. The Gorilla immediately felt as though he were trapped in a furious storm of flames. No matter which direction he tried to dodge or how he tried to defend, it seemed nothing would end well.
In an instant, the Gorilla broke out in a cold sweat. He wants to kill me! This Chen Gu is a master from True Knowledge Sin in disguise!
Nearby, Man Suling let out a sharp cry and suddenly transformed into a raging werewolf. Howling, she charged at Chen Gu, clawing and scratching in an attempt to rescue Gao Mengjiu.
The Gorilla's body swayed as his Resonance Council Celebrity ability activated, causing the entire room to shake and tremble.
Only then did Chen Gu realize that this pair—the male and female—were now like startled birds. He seemed to have truly... scared them.
Seeing two Professionals going all out against him, Chen Gu felt he had sort of shot himself in the foot.
His "Wrath of the Empty Sky" stopped precisely in front of the Gorilla's forehead, just as he had imagined in his earlier fantasies, without even breaking the skin.
The Resonance Council Celebrity's skills needed time to activate. However, the Magic Mountain Werewolf was already on the attack. Her foreclaws reached for Chen Gu, lengthening again like five curved blades, aiming straight for his eyes.
At this point, although the Gorilla's powers hadn't yet peaked, he could still exert some of his strength. He growled, "Wave Control!"
The air around Chen Gu was suddenly stirred by a strange resonance. It grew thick and viscous, like liquid, as layers of constraints wrapped themselves around him.
Chen Gu's movements became sluggish, while Man Suling's razor-sharp wolf claws struck like lightning!
Chen Gu sighed regretfully and abandoned his original plan. He withdrew his blade and retreated, shattering the bindings around him, then gave Man Suling a fierce… look.
"It's me," Chen Gu cursed. "You fool! If I were really an enemy, your head would have been split in two by now!"
The Gorilla chuckled. "I figured it out too. But you're so petty! Just because you lost our last fight, you have to hold a grudge and try to get even?"
Man Suling blinked, her lethal wolf claws still extended. How did a life-and-death struggle turn into a friendly reunion in the blink of an eye?
Chen Gu didn't mince words with the Gorilla either, each one sharp and to the point: "You're so tough, huh? Always needing a woman to bail you out when you can't win a fight yourself!"
Chen Gu turned to Man Suling and asked, "Is this how you treat your savior?"
The Gorilla was displeased. "Now you're just being difficult. I admit I owed you for last time, but you can't keep harping on about it, can you?"
"Get lost, dumbass!" Chen Gu snapped at the Gorilla. "I'm not talking about *that* time. I'm talking about the time she was injured by the President..."
Man Suling suddenly remembered. "It was you..."
"It's me." Chen Gu produced the President's social crystal wand. "I need to know the President's Profession."
Man Suling looked at Chen Gu, her gaze somewhat strange. Then... as if compelled by an unseen force, she reverted from her Magic Mountain Werewolf state, transforming back into one of the Four Little Jade Maidens—beautiful, gentle, and exuding womanly charm.
Her impression of Chen Gu had never actually been very good. When they first met, he had gotten her boss incredibly drunk. Moreover, he lacked chivalry. In Man Suling's eyes, as a famous beauty, she was used to everyone treating her with a certain "deference." Chen Gu, however, treated her like an ordinary person, which she considered ungentlemanly.
Later, when they faced True Knowledge Sin, knowing that Chen Gu had saved both her and her boss, Man Suling had felt grateful, but her overall perception of him hadn't changed.
However, being saved by him during the battle with the President—that was different. It had stirred something in Man Suling's heart.
Man Suling, also in her early twenties, was a young woman prone to romantic daydreams. She had privately speculated countless times that her savior was a Prince Charming on a white horse, wielding a magnificent sword!
Yes, the great sword symbolized his strength—that made perfect sense.
And then, asking for nothing in return, he had quietly departed after his heroic deed, never trying to leverage the fact that he'd saved her.
Both of them were simply waiting for fate to arrange their destined reunion!
(What young woman doesn't dream of romance? What inexperienced young man doesn't indulge in fantasies?)
So, their "fateful encounter" was actually a second rescue—how romantically mortifying, in a thrilling sort of way!
Man Suling was lost in thought. Chen Gu couldn't help but prompt her, "Man Suling?"
