Lu Yī also peered inside the kitchen and said, “You can follow Ms. Gu. I kind of envy you.”
The abandoned factory incident was still freshly etched in his mind. The sniper who got beaten up by Gu Mang… She was too vicious!
Upon hearing this, Lu Qi became even more determined to stick closely to Big Boss.
…
After the meal.
Lu Chengzhou called the President’s House. Joston picked up the call personally.
Sitting on the sofa, Lu Chengzhou glanced at Gu Mang who was playing a game with Lu Qi, Peng Yan, and others. His gaze was mellow.
When he started speaking, he spoke lightly and slowly in a slightly cold tone. He put his words clearly and concisely, “Gu Mang and I will be heading over tomorrow.”
Joston answered, “Okay, thank you, Mr. Lu.”
Lu Chengzhou sneered before hanging up the call.
Watching Joston put down the phone, Noelle asked, “Lu Chengzhou?”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Hill, who had been sitting by the side, clenched her fists and fixed her gaze on Joston.
Joston put his arm around her shoulders and gave her a squeeze. He turned towards Noelle and nodded. “He and Gu Mang are coming over tomorrow.”
Mrs. Hill heaved a sigh of relief. Noelle could also finally put her mind at ease.
After thinking for a moment, she said, “Dad, I suggest we keep An An out of sight when Mom undergoes her treatment tomorrow.”
This time, the President’s House suffered a big loss. The medical fee, which was supposed to be only 300 million dollars, turned out to be seven billion dollars. And the reason the President’s House suffered such a large loss was because of An An.
Joston thought about it for a few seconds before frowning. “Knowing An An’s personality, she probably would not listen to us.”
Mrs. Hill and Noelle were extremely troubled.
Joston looked at Noelle. “During the treatment, make sure you keep an eye on An An.”
Noelle sighed. They had no other choice.
…
In the medical room.
Gu Yin peeled an orange and passed it to An An.
“I heard Ms. Noelle found another doctor. The doctor will be coming to the President’s House to treat Madam.” As Gu Yin spoke, she stretched her arm and picked up another orange.
One of An An’s arms was hanging near her neck as her wrist was put in a plaster cast.
Biting off a clove of orange, she scoffed. “Does he really think he is number one in the entire world? As if we wouldn’t be able to find another doctor without him.”
The ’he’ she was referring to was ambiguous.
A gentle smile spread across Gu Yin’s face. “You’re right. There are many other competent people in this world. That Miracle Doctor is too conceited.”
Looking at her fractured wrist, wickedness crept into An An’s eyes. She gritted her teeth. “Don’t let me catch him!”
“Simmer down,” advised Gu Yin. “Make sure you recover first.”
An An took a deep breath and calmed herself down slowly. She turned towards her. “Once my Mom recovers, I will take you to look for Professor Kang.”
Gu Yin smiled at An An with gratitude. She seemed to think of something and asked, “I heard that the doctor is from our country’s capital.”
An An nodded. “My sister went to the capital to look for this doctor.”
Gu Yin thought about the doctors trained in Chinese Medicine at the capital.
In the medical association, the doctors trained in Chinese Medicine were Yang Tianming, the principal of Capital University, and the members of the Yu family, the most influential medical family.
Who could it be?
…
Early next morning.
Lu Chengzhou knocked on Gu Mang’s door before opening it. He was taken aback when he saw her dressed in a white hoodie, pastel purple joggers, and a white baseball cap.
He had never seen her wear colors other than black and white. Even her usual black backpack had been swapped out with a white one.
Carrying her backpack on one shoulder, Gu Mang walked out, closed the door, and said in a low voice, “We can go now.”
Lu Chengzhou regained his senses and hummed in acknowledgment. He held her hand and headed downstairs.
At 9 p.m, Lu Chengzhou, Gu Mang, and the others arrived at the first guarded gate of the President’s House. They were right on time. The President’s House checked the car and the occupants thoroughly before opening up the gate and letting them in.
Once they drove in, Gu Mang noticed that the number of guards in the President’s House had tripled from the last time she visited. They must be because of Lu Chengzhou.
They went through every guarded gate patiently.
