To others, Capital University was a top university as its ranking was in the top ten. But when compared to the Jijing Special Institute, even Capital University was nothing to write home about.
Otherwise, all the teams from the world’s prestigious universities would not have such a strong desire to take part in the various annual competitions and fight for the top ranks. To some extent, a medical’s school’s reputation was on the line at the competition.
Huo Zhi paused. Then he spoke again. “The Head Elder knows that you and Gu Si were the ones who caused Leng Xuan’s incident. This time, he did not pursue the matter because they are trying to maintain good relations. They will take this opportunity to train you and Gu Si well.”
“So Leng Xuan was the one who added me.” Gu Mang spoke slowly as if she did not hear him speak. Her tone could send chills down one’s spine.
If Huo Zhi or Head Elder had done it, he would not have spoken so much.
She had never met Leng Xuan before. Other than a few people in the Gu family, only Head Elder and Huo Zhi knew about her and Gu Si’s time on Jijing Island.
In fact, the other elders did not even know her or Gu Si’s names.
She had not taken any action against Leng Xuan. Instead, Leng Xuan had messed with her.
“Gu Mang…”
“Well played.” Gu Mang rested her arms on the railings and gave off an intimidating aura. There was a smile on her face.
With that, she hung up.
On the other end, Huo Zhi frowned. He knew Gu Mang’s temper better than anyone but he did not know what she intended to do.
…
Yang Tianming pondered for a while before going to the lab in person. He sat at his desk in the lab, having heard from the students that Gu Mang had gone out with her phone.
After a while, Gu Mang came back to the lab.
Yang Tianming got up rather nervously. “Gu Mang, the competition roster…”
The chill in Gu Mang’s eyes had not completely subsided. The look in her eyes was enough to take away one’s breath.
“What time are we gathering tomorrow morning?” Gu Mang’s tone was cold and her eyes were really intimidating.
“Huh?” Yang Tianming was stunned for a second. When he understood that her response meant that she was going to attend the competition, he answered, “10am. Assemble at the airport. A private jet from Jijing Island will come and pick us up.”
“Okay,” Gu Mang responded.
Yang Tianming thought for a while. “Gu Mang, I’ll send you some material later. Review it when you’re free.”
“There’s no need to.”
She had no classes in the afternoon. Gu Mang put her laptop and books into her black backpack.
Yang Tianming knew that Gu Mang’s grades were not bad but competition would be much tougher this time. He did not dare let his guard down.
Gu Mang finished packing her things and she slung her backpack over her shoulder. “Professor Yang, if that’s all, I shall take my leave.”
Yang Tianming nodded.
Nobody dared to make a sound as Gu Mang walked out coldly.
…
At night.
Lu Chengzhou returned to Royal Garden with Lu Yi and Lu Qi in tow. He saw that there was a silver suitcase placed on the coffee table.
Surgical and dissection instruments were neatly placed inside. Scalpel, surgical forceps, scissors, dissecting knife, dissecting needle… There were at least forty tools.
The suitcase was densely packed.
The sharp blades glowed coldly under the fluorescent lights. There were also a lot of disposable acupuncture needles on the side.
Lu Yī and Lu Qi were shocked. They felt their scalp tense up a little. They knew what Gu Mang was capable of with these tools.
Yu Mufeng walked over to Lu Chengzhou. “Brother Cheng.”
Lu Chengzhou nodded at him. He sat down beside Gu Mang and pointed his chin at the metal suitcase. “What are you going to do?”
“Murder someone,” Gu Mang said calmly.
Lu Chengzhou said nothing.
Lu Yī drew his head back uncontrollably and gave her sincere suggestion. “Ms. Gu, guns work well. You’ll stain yourself with blood if you use a knife.”
Lu Qi agreed. “Yeah, it wouldn’t be good to dirty your hands.”
