The mighty group of people wanted to see if Silence was really Gu Mang. Even He Yidu, a person who was never affected by changes, was a little nervous as he sat in the helicopter. Qin Fang was even more so.
As for Lu Chengzhou, he sat on the sofa with his eyes drooping low. He rested his arms on the armrest and his fingers were tight. A few hours felt like a few centuries. It was unbearable and tense. When the helicopter reached the airspace of Mingyu Island, Lu Chengzhou opened his eyes.
The helicopter slowly landed, the grass beneath swaying crazily against the turbulence created by the helicopter blades.
After sitting in the same position for such a long time Lu Chengzhou’s body was stiff as he stood up, but it didn’t seem to bother him as he got out of the helicopter.
Lu Jiu and Lu Shi had brought a group of people over to wait for them.
Lu Shi lowered his voice and asked strangely. “We have called back all our men. Logically speaking, Young Master Lu should have already found Ms. Gu, why is he suddenly at Red Flame? And also at this time…”
He looked at his wristwatch. It was 4am. They had been asleep when they suddenly received the news that Young Master Lu wanted to come over to Red Flame. Lu Jiu shook his head. He had no idea why Young Master Lu would come at such a time. When they saw so many people get out of the helicopter, the two of them were stunned.
Why are Young Master Qin, Young Master He and Lu Yi all here as well? What’s wrong?
The group walked towards them. Lu Chengzhou was at the head with no expression on his face.
When he approached Lu Jiu and Lu Shi, he asked in a low voice, “Where is Silence?”
Lu Jiu recovered and replied respectfully, “He is still training the newcomers in the special training team.”
Lu Chengzhou’s fingertips curled up uncontrollably. “Contact Silence and let her come to the cabin.”
Lu Jiu responded, “Yes.”
After, he took out the internal communication device and called the Surveillance room. Lu Shi watched, feeling strange. Young Master Lu had come to Red Flame for Silence? Didn’t he say he would come over to meet Silence after training ended?
Lu Chengzhou’s stared at Lu Jiu for an instant with his black eyes. So did Qin Fang and He Yidu. All eyes were on Lu Jiu. Lu Jiu held the internal communicator and was a little confused by their stares. Soon, the surveillance room was connected.
Lu Jiu said, “Contact Silence, get him to come to the cabin now.”
“Yes.” There was acknowledgment from the other end.
Lu Jiu hung up and looked at Lu Chengzhou, “Young Master Lu, Silence will take about half an hour to reach the cabin. Would you like to wait at the cabin?”
Lu Chengzhou acknowledged with a hum so the group walked directly to the cabin.
Lu Shi struck a conversation with Peng Yan. “What’s the situation?”
Peng Yan was silent for a second. He did not know what to say and he answered vaguely. “It’s a bit complicated, you’ll understand soon enough.”
Lu Jiu and Lu Shi had met Ms. Gu before. This was sure to be a surprise.
Lu Shi was silent.
At the cabin.
Lu Chengzhou looked at the cabin prepared for Gu Mang. His heart was still palpitating wildly. He sighed, and faintly said, “Give me the spare key for her room.”
A touch of astonishment flashed across Lu Jiu’s eyes. “Young Master Lu, if anyone enters Silence’s room without permission, I’m afraid it will anger…”
“Key.” Lu Chengzhou stretched out his arm.
Lu Jiu did not dare to say anything else and he asked his subordinates for spare keys. Then, he handed them over. Lu Chengzhou received the cold key, only to realize that his fingers were also cold. There seemed to be cold sweat on his back.
He pursed his lips and said, “I’ll wait here for Silence. The rest of you can leave first.”
He Yidu and Qin Fang uttered an acknowledgement.
The others lowered their heads respectfully. “Yes.”
