Everyone knew Yu Zhongjing was the top expert in brain science, but no one knew that he had a master. It’d be interesting to see how Lu Xiwei, the famous female brain specialist, would react upon finding out that Gu Mang was the master’s master.
As Lin Shuang leaned against the bed with a cigarette between her fingertips, her smirk was devilish and bewitching.
She received Gu Mang’s text.
“Alright, I will transfer a hundred million.”
Lin Shuang raised an eyebrow, threw the cell phone on the bed, and went to sleep.
…
Seeing Gu Mang’s expression become solemn, he became tense. “Sister Mang… what’s the matter?”
“It’s nothing.” Gu Mang put away her cell phone, stuffed her hands in her pockets, and walked forward with an emotionless expression.
He didn’t dare ask her for money, but he asked Lin Shuang to do it instead.
That old geezer.
Lu Yang heaved a breath of relief knowing that nothing had happened. “Sister Mang, I came to school in the morning and saw the milk tea shop selling a new product. Do you want to try it?”
Gu Mang had been looking down at the floor. But upon hearing that, she turned to look at him, the corner of her eyes giving off a cool and distant aura. The corner of her lips raised in a raw, bewitching smile. “Thanks.”
Sunlight fell upon the girl’s face. Her skin looked like white jade and her facial features were particularly pretty. Lu Yang’s mind went blank for a few seconds upon seeing the curve of her smile. Her looks and her aura were very powerful.
He blinked, feeling a little flustered as he avoided eye contact with Gu Mang. Then he kicked Fatty. “Come, let’s go and buy milk tea.”
“Alright.” Fatty clutched his butt and reluctantly followed Lu Yang.
Chu Yao, Gu Mang, and Meng Jinyang walked towards the supermarket.
…
Lei Xiao was called to the office by Xie Chengyun.
“Supervisor Xie, did you find out what happened?”
Xie Chengyun put down his signature pen and looked up. “The person who appeared and took up the role out of nowhere is a young person from the Qin family in the capital.”
“What?! The capital?!” Lei Xiao’s expression turned drastically. He looked at Xie Chengyun impatiently. “Supervisor Xie, I’ve never gotten on the Qins’ bad side. I can’t even afford to offend them even if I wanted to!”
Xie Chengyun’s eyes were solemn. “Are you sure you haven’t offended the Qins?”
Hearing that, Lei Xiao felt trepidation. “Supervisor Xie, what do you mean by that?”
“The Qins want me to tell you something.” Xie Chengyun’s voice was low and deep as he looked at Lei Xiao whose expression had become stiff. “They want to tell you not to mess around with the wrong people.”
Lei Xiao brooded as he walked out of Xie Chengyun’s office.
Apart from the Ruans, he had only offended Gu Mang. There was no way Gu Mang knew anybody in the Qin family.
In the afternoon, Lei Xiao had a meal with people.
When he passed by the bank entrance, a familiar figure came walking out from inside.
“Stop the car,” Lei Xiao said to the chauffeur as he turned to look.
Gu Mang wore a black baseball cap which hid some of her beautiful black hair, a white jacket, and black cargo pants. Her hands were in her pockets as she walked nonchalantly.
A middle-aged man walked with her. The man was lowering himself slightly as he talked to Gu Mang.
Seeing the man’s face clearly, Lei Xiao’s eyes widened in astonishment.
Wasn’t he the bank president? He was walking Gu Mang out in person?!
Lei Xiao pursed his lips. He couldn’t help but get out of the car to stop her.
After talking with Gu Mang, the bank president went inside.
“Gu Mang,” Lei Xiao shouted from a distance.
The girl heard the sound and turned to look. When she saw it was Lei Xiao, her eyes narrowed, but she didn’t reply.
Lei Xiao said sternly, “What are you doing at the bank?”
Gu Mang forced a smile, her pretty face warped in a cold expression. Her eyes were untameable and brash as she said casually, “To withdraw money.”
“Withdraw money? How much money do you have that the bank president is sending you out personally?” Lei Xiao scoffed. “If you want to lie, at least try to be smarter at it.”
Gu Mang raised an eyebrow and looked inside the bank. “Oh, you’re talking about him.”
Lei Xiao’s expression was cold as he waited for her to continue her sentence.
