Gu Mang heard him closing the door and walking softly on purpose. She opened her eyes. The lights had been turned off. She curled her lips in the dark as she got off the bed. She moved to the computer, feeling her way over. She dragged the chair over and sat down as she crossed her leg and turned on the computer. There were cigarettes and a lighter to the side.
She leaned backwards and removed one cigarette from the box as she bit it. Throwing the box to the side, she picked up the lighter. With a click, the glow of the flame illuminated her beautiful face.
Her beautiful eyebrows were mixed with chilliness and her eyes seemed as dark as an icy lake. She gave off a sense of ruthlessness and she appeared wicked. She took a puff of the cigarette casually as she stretched her arm and placed her wrist on the table, still holding the cigarette.
Not long after, a face which looked equally as handsome as Lu Chengzhou’s, appeared on the screen. He had a chiseled face with eyebrows that were dashing and eyes which were radiating with brilliance. However, the corner of his eyes seemed sinister and ruthless.
“I didn’t want to pick up this video call initially.” The man sounded intimidating.
Gu Mang curled her lips, her eyes wicked. “Since you didn’t want to, you shouldn’t have trifled with me.”
The man responded after some time, “You’re indeed here for Lu Chengzhou.”
Gu Mang flicked the ashes away as she replied casually, “The old me would have killed all of your goons.”
The man looked at her nonchalant face. All of a sudden, he chuckled and said in a low voice, “I wish you had.”
Such a sharp tongue. Gu Mang was still the old Gu Mang. However, she did not kill anyone tonight. She did not wish to show that side of herself to Lu Chengzhou.
“Huo Zhi, cut the nonsense.” Gu Mang’s eyes were dark and her voice was cold. “If you stay out of my affairs I will leave you alone. Don’t be like a peeping tom and monitor Lu Chengzhou and me. You know my temper.”
“Peeping tom…” Huo Zhi slowly repeated the words as the darkness in his eyes intensified.
She really would use any kind of disparaging terms with him. Was he so deplorable in her eyes?
He looked at her and replied peacefully, “Gu Mang, the moment you appeared tonight, the bald man turned around and left instantly. Do you think that Lu Chengzhou will not suspect you? He won’t check?”
Gu Mang knew what kind of person Lu Chengzhou was better than anyone else.
The entire world was searching for Miracle Doctor. Others could not find a single clue but he managed to pinpoint the doctor’s location. He even traced the doctor to the Middle East and had a picture of the doctor from behind. Did she really think that Lu Chengzhou would not investigate her matters?
Gu Mang softly chuckled as chilliness filled her eyes. She replied, “He wouldn’t.”
Huo Zhi pursed his lips and his voice sounded gloomy. “Why are you so certain?”
“Because he trusts me.” It was the kind of trust where he condoned everything she did.
…
In the medical clinic of a clubhouse in the suburbs.
A doctor was helping Qin Fang clean his wound. “Young Master Qin, don’t let it come into contact with water for the next few days and make sure you keep to the diet. Come again tomorrow so I can change the dressing.”
Qin Fang nodded and waved. “Alright. You may leave.”
“Yes.” The doctor organized his medicine box and left respectfully.
Qin Fang could not wait to tell He Yidu about what happened tonight. “Old He, who do you think Gu Mang actually is? She handled a professional sniper on her own.”
Snipers were all specially trained and regardless of where they were, they were top soldiers. Gu Mang managed to tackle that kind of master as a girl and came out unscathed. Big boss seemed to be psychotically formidable in all aspects.
