Gu Mang’s pretty face was half-obscured in shadow. She stuffed her hands in her pockets as she stood casually.
Seeing her nonchalant posture, amusement flitted across Lu Chengzhou’s eyes. He gestured with his chin. “Come on, I’ll take you there.”
Gu Mang nodded. The two walked to the car. Lu Chengzhou pulled open the car door and Gu Mang stepped inside.
Seeing the set of papers and notebooks in the storage compartment between the two seats, she raised her eyebrows slightly.
Lu Chengzhou got in the car from the other side and saw her turn to look at the notebooks. “I prepared this for you. I’ll personally help you with it.”
Gu Mang’s pretty eyebrow was raised as she looked at him solemnly. “I’m quite fine in my studies.”
Lu Yī couldn’t hold back his laughter. She was the worst scorer of her grade. How could she call that fine? Gu Mang looked at him languidly and they exchanged glances through the rearview mirror.
The girl’s gaze was cold and serious. Her aura was very strong.
Lu Yī froze for a moment and started the car with an emotionless expression.
Gu Mang looked away languidly. She took out her cell phone casually, got into a comfortable position, and started playing a game.
“Stay at Seal Palace tonight to do a Mathematics paper.” Lu Chengzhou’s voice was deep and raspy as he spoke patiently.
Gu Mang’s eyes opened wider and she replied with a murmur.
Lu Yī carefully glanced in the rearview mirror. He really wanted to know how the big boss managed to get a zero on her test.
…
At the airport entrance.
Gu Si rushed out from the car. His face was darker than before and he seemed a little slimmer. His facial features were still very good-looking. He exuded an air of cool nonchalance.
He wore black camouflage clothing and small black leather boots. Over his shirt he wore an unzipped jacket. On his head was a backwards children’s black baseball cap. He looked cool and cute.
Seeing Gu Mang, he shouted from a distance, “Sis!”
Gu Mang looked up and saw Gu Si rushing over. Her gaze fell upon his face and her eyes narrowed. He seemed to have changed quite a bit.
Gu Si glanced at Lu Chengzhou beside her. The man had his hand in his pocket. His clear eyes had a gaze that seemed like it belonged to a person of a different age. The man looked at him insipidly, the hazy mist in his eyes exuded an intimidating pressure.
Gu Mang pressed down on his head with one hand. “You’ve grown taller again.”
Children of his age grew up fast.
Hearing this, Gu Si’s eyes lit up. “Really, Sis? Does this mean I can help you fight soon?”
Gu Mang tutted. “Fight? Be civil.”
“Okay, I will study how to fight civilly.” Gu Si kept a serious expression on his face.
Gu Mang raised her pretty eyebrow and she gave him a faint smirk. “Come on. We’re taking you out to eat.”
Gu Si immediately replied, “I want to eat at World Restaurant!”
“Yeah.” Gu Mang’s voice was deep. She paused for a moment and looked at Lu Chengzhou. “Are you going?”
The man nodded.
…
On Friday night Starlight Mall was packed with people. Lots of people were meeting at World Restaurant. Lu Yī called on the road to book a private room.
He ordered a table full of seafood, beef, mutton, and only a few dishes of vegetables.
Gu Si ate like he was never going to eat again, frantically stuffing food into his mouth. “Sister, life is too bitter. This is good.”
It was as though he had just escaped a famine.
Lu Chengzhou and Gu Mang sat off to the side. He leaned closer to her and whispered, “Where did you send him?”
Gu Mang picked up a piece of brown sugar glutinous rice and fiddled with it. “The Beast Camp.”
It was the cruelest field operations camp in the military district. Lu Chengzhou raised an eyebrow as he looked at Gu Si. He had heard from his father some time ago that a seven-year-old child, perhaps some commanding officer’s grandson, had arrived at the Beast Camp in Ming City’s Military District.
Was that kid Gu Si?
Had Sixth Uncle helped arrange it?
