Lu Chengzhou crept up behind her and Gu Mang lifted her leg to kick him. Pinning her down, he whispered into her ears, “Haven’t you learned to be obedient from your previous lessons?”
Gu Mang pursed her lips. Although she was not moving, the aura she exuded was terrifying.
Lu Chengzhou hugged her and laughed. “Next time…”
Before he could finish speaking, Gu Mang interrupted him. “Scram.”
Lu Chengzhou buried his head in her neck and laughed from the bottom of his heart.
“If you continue to laugh, I will kick you out of my room,” said Gu Mang coldly.
Lu Chengzhou suppressed his laughter. He had never seen her getting so worked up. Could it be that she was really angry?
…
The next day.
Lu Chengzhou coaxed her the whole morning. He finally brought her down for a meal after she had been pacified. However, she still looked displeased and gave off an intimidating aura.
Lu Yī and Lu Qi found it bewildering when they saw the scene. Ms. Gu had been in a good mood when they returned from the presidential palace yesterday. Ms. Gu spent the whole night with the young master yesterday. Could the young master have angered Ms. Gu?
The two subordinates shot a quick glance at Lu Chengzhou cautiously. They were interpreting Lu Chengzhou’s expression in their mind. Why did their young master look happy?
Could it be…
Lu Yī and Lu Qi had the same thought as they exchanged glances. They had come to fruition?! The young master’s actions seemed a little swift. Ms. Gu had only celebrated her eighteenth birthday a few days ago…
If they could speak openly they would describe Lu Chengzhou as a beast in human clothing.
In the dining hall.
Lu Chengzhou added sugar into the milk and stirred it before handing it to Gu Mang. “Drink up.”
Gu Mang propped up her face with her hand as she looked at him coldly from the corner of her eyes. It was obvious that the anger in her had not subsided. She was expressionless.
Lu Chengzhou cleared his throat and looked away as though he felt guilty. He took a slice of bread and spread her favorite mango jam on it before passing it to her. Looking at her, he spoke in a gentle and especially patient tone, “Be good and eat first.”
Gu Mang shot icy daggers at him. Seconds later, she took the bread from him and ate slowly.
Lu Chengzhou heaved a sigh of relief.
…
After having breakfast, a group of men appeared in the villa all of a sudden. Leading the group was a pair of twin brothers, Lu Jiu and Lu Shi. They had oriental, masculine facial features and both were wearing the same black jacket.
Lu Chengzhou sat on the sofa with his legs crossed as his arms rested on the armrest lazily.
Lu Jiu, Lu Shi and the group of subordinates stood there respectfully as they shot a glance at Gu Mang who was sitting on the other sofa.
The girl was nestled on the sofa with bad posture. Her looks were exceptionally eye-catching and she was playing games on the phone.
Lu Jiu and Lu Shi were taken aback when they saw Gu Mang. Typically only men were seen around the villa. A woman lounging here was something that had never happened before. Would she be present while they discussed serious matters?
However, they had been well-trained by Lu Chengzhou so they knew what they should care and what they should not care about. They only took a quick glimpse at Gu Mang before shifting their eyes away.
Lu Chengzhou sipped a cup of tea and cleared his throat. Looking at the pair of brothers, he instructed them, “A batch of goods from Country K will be shipped to Mingyu State. Both of you are to take some men there.”
Lu Jiu and Lu Shi bowed their heads respectfully. “Understood.”
Gu Mang eyes paused for a moment. They were going to Mingyu State.
“What’s the situation with Red Scorpion?” After every sentence he glanced at Gu Mang from the corner of his eyes.
Lu Jiu replied, “The new batch of students have assembled. When Silence gets there the training will begin.”
