Lu Chengzhou cocked his head to the side, nonchalantly adjusting the cuffs of his sleeves. The corner of his eyes were cold. He gave a light smirk. “Arctic Fox. To be able to hack into my system, who else could it be? The Miracle Doctor is probably with the Shadow League.”
“Shadow League?”
Qin Fang and He Yidu looked at each other and looked quite surprised. No wonder they couldn’t catch him after all the effort they had put in.
The Arctic Fox was a god whose name struck fear in the hearts of even the world’s top hackers.
Although she had the ability to hack into Brother Cheng’s system, she couldn’t do it without leaving any traces.
Lu Chengzhou stuffed his hand back into his pocket, loosened up, and spoke slowly, “Up the reward for Shadow League. Two hundred million to find the Miracle Doctor and a hundred million more for the doctor’s consultation.”
…
“Is he crazy?” Gu Mang received Yun Ling’s call and her eyebrows were knitted together.
Yun Ling very much agreed with Gu Mang this time. She cursed, “F*ck, I’ve never seen such a huge offer before.”
Gu Mang’s eyes were cold and brooding. “Not taking it.”
She replied curtly and hung up the call.
She turned and went back into the room to sleep.
Crazy. Telling her to find herself?
…
The news reached Lu Chengzhou. The man wore a black luxury lounge attire and he sat on a leather sofa.
The shadowed contours of his facial features were mysteriously attractive.
His long, straight legs were folded and raised on the coffee table in a casual yet refined manner.
“Still not taking it?” The man’s voice was deep and magnetic.
Lu Yī wondered if the Shadow League didn’t put much value in money. Otherwise, how could they not take such a big offer?
“Young Master Lu, we are sure that the Miracle Doctor is in Ming City.”
That Arctic Fox was too cunning.
The Miracle Doctor’s traces had been so well covered.
It was only after Young Master Lu stepped in to do things himself that they finally managed to hone in on the Miracle Doctor’s location in Ming City.
They were the passive ones here. It was no fun to continue like this.
Lu Chengzhou raised an eyebrow and flicked the ash of his cigarette. “Forget him. Track Gu Mang’s whereabouts.”
Hearing that, Lu Yī finally heaved a breath of relief. “Yes.”
That girl seemed quite good at medicine.
…
The second morning. Eight o’clock.
Lu Shangjin took Gu Mang and Meng Jinyang to Ming City High School.
The principal’s office.
“Director-General Lu, you know the school’s rules. We normally don’t take in students during Year Three. Even if I used my authority to force the teachers into accepting them, it’ll be a huge burden on them academically.”
Principal Fu kept up his smile.
Holding the files of the two girls in his hand, his wrists were shaking a little.
A girl who didn’t even graduate from kindergarten was going back to school to be a Year Three student.
The other was notorious for her misdeeds, a pro at fighting and skipping classes. Her test scores were so neat and beautiful. They were all zeros! Two whole A4 pages of zeros!
What was she doing at the test? She couldn’t even get a single multiple-choice question right?!
These two files had given him more headaches than any he had seen in all of his career.
It was especially so with this girl with the zeros. What a conspicuous look.
Her eyes were dark, cold, and sinister. She seemed quite ruthless.
Definitely a pricky one!
If they were to take her in, she would probably cause a huge commotion in school.
Lu Shangjin narrowed his eyes when he heard the principal. “What do you mean? You don’t want to accept her?”
It was obvious from his tone that he was going to abuse his authority.
Principal Fu’s hand shook tremendously. He smiled and changed his tune, “No, no, no. What I meant was to let the Year Three section come up with a test for these girls to take. Once we have their results, I’ll then be able to find a suitable class for them.”
