Gu Luosheng put on a stern expression and went to interview the actor auditioning to play the stepfather in the drama.
"You're here for the audition, right?" Gu Luosheng asked as soon as she sat down.
But when the man looked up, she was stunned. "You... Mr. Liu, my homeroom teacher?"

Gu Luosheng gave him a humorless smile. "I'm one of those 'certain students' you used to talk about, Mr. Liu. The bad apple, the shit-stirrer, the hopeless case who would never amount to anything!"
"Gu Luosheng!" The man remembered her instantly.
"Oh my goodness, it's you! You're so famous now. Whenever I watch your variety shows, I feel so proud. That's a student I taught!" Liu Song exclaimed excitedly.
Gu Luosheng raised an eyebrow. "I never expected this either. The tables have turned. The mighty Mr. Liu has fallen into my hands."
"Huh? What did you say?" Liu Song asked innocently.
"I said it's never too late to get revenge."
