Seeing her response, Yu Zhongjing replied, [I’ll get Mufeng to fetch you tomorrow morning.]
Gu Mang answered concisely, [It’s alright, let me know the time.]
Yu Zhongjing said, [Sure, 10am.]
Gu Mang swiped her screen and left the chat room with Yu Zhongjing. She opened the one with Yang Tianming. [Professor Yang, I have something tomorrow morning. I will only go to the research institute in the afternoon.]
Yang Tianming replied very quickly. [Alright.]
Gu Mang put away her phone and walked towards the lab at the medical school. When she arrived at the lab, everyone was there. After greeting everyone, Gu Mang put her bag down.
Then, she took her laptop and notebook, and went to the testing lab next door.
When others saw her, they no longer treated her as a junior. Instead, they admired her and also feared her as they knew that she was ‘someone who should not be messed with.’
Gu Mang did not really care about the things happening around her. After she was done with the experiment, she put on her earphones and wrote algorithmic code in the lab.
…
No. 14 Research Center.
Lu Chengzhou’s office.
“It was so real. I think I can also lead a bunch of people to barge into someone’s house and conduct a search and seizure of their assets!” Qin Fang slurped his tea and thought of kneeling down to Gu Mang. “Sister in law must have been holding back, otherwise she might have used a gun to kill the entire Sang family.”
Everyone now knew what kind of status Gu Mang had.
“What’s your problem? Why are you making so much noise when you are drinking tea?” He Yidu frowned at him.
Qin Fang slurped the tea again to express his obnoxiousness.
He Yidu couldn’t be bothered with him. He turned to Lu Chengzhou. “Brother Cheng, did Sister Mang not use the things that you prepared?”
Lu Chengzhou stretched out his arms and flicked the ash on his cigarette. His voice was calm. “She hacked the Sang Corporation’s intranet by herself and gave Sixth Uncle a promotion opportunity.”
When Qin Fang heard this, the corner of his lips twitched. “Sister-in-law is so quick!”
Lu Chengzhou acknowledged with a hum. The documents that he got Lu San to prepare were not used in the end.
“When have you ever seen Sister Mang act slow?” He Yidu recalled the way the big boss did things. “She never waits overnight for revenge.”
Qin Fang raised his eyebrow. “I’ve seen how she operates. The matter with Brother Cheng took her quite a few years.”
Lu Chengzhou looked at him and squinted slowly. There was an intimidating and dangerous look in his eyes.
Qin Fang’s heart almost stopped beating. He cleared his throat and lowered his head. “I’m sorry, Brother Cheng. It just came to mind. It wasn’t on purpose.”
He Yidu snorted. “Have you found a good place to be cremated and can’t wait to try it out?”
“Get lost!” Qin Fang scolded him. He couldn’t help but shudder and he glanced at Lu Chengzhou.
Damn! Why can’t I watch my mouth!
Just then, there was a knock on the office door.
A middle-aged man wearing a special lab coat and glasses walked in respectfully. “Young Master Lu, the meeting is ready.”
Lu Chengzhou got up.
Qin Fang breathed a sigh of relief. That had been too close for comfort.
…
At 8 PM.
Gu Mang came out of the laboratory one hour early. Lu Qi drove her to the affiliated hospital and Lu Shi was waiting at the entrance.
“Ms. Gu.” Lu Shi took a few steps forward and lowered his head respectfully.
Gu Mang nodded.
Lu Shi handed her a black wooden box with vintage carvings on it. “Have a look and see if this is the jade you want.”
They had dispatched people from all branches of Red Flame so they managed to find it in half a day. It was not even available in the black markets on Mingyu Island. They had only found it when they looked in the black market on Jijing Island.
The Sleeping Jade was godly and only a few people knew about its effects.
Gu Mang took it and opened the box. The light blue jade was attached to a black string and was placed in the center of the box.
After confirming that it was a Sleeping Jade, she covered it up and said politely, “Thank you.”
Lu Shi answered respectfully, “It is my job. Ms. Gu, you’re being too polite.”
Gu Mang smirked and stuck both hands into her pockets. Then, she walked into the hospital.
