Chapter 709: Do I Know Too Much…
Flying Serpent asked Responsive Dragon, that fool, to shut up. Then, he tagged Gu Mang, saying, [Fifth Brother, tell us the truth. Why did you abandon Responsive Dragon, who even went to get plastic surgery just to see you in person? Previously, you also settled things yourself when someone had stolen Mysterious Crane’s goods.]
Responsive Dragon scolded Flying Serpent. [You are the one who got plastic surgery! Your whole family is plastic! With my looks, even Lu Chengzhou has to surrender to me!]
Gu Mang narrowed her eyes and began typing at last. [Is your appearance defined by the surface area of your face?]
Her ruthless comment caused Flying Serpent to laugh at him mercilessly.
When Gu Mang appeared, even Mysterious Crane who was always missing in action, became very active.
Mysterious Crane said, [You are far from Lu Chengzhou. Of course, Fifth Brother is right. If we are judging based on the surface area, your face is definitely bigger.]
Responsive Dragon replied, [F*ck!]
Flying Serpent continued, [Forget about looks. Fifth Brother, tell us why you are willing to help Mysterious Crane, but not Responsive Dragon.]
If no comparison could be made, no one would get hurt. As if he had been stabbed in the heart, Responsive Dragon typed in agitation, [Am I not important enough? Am I not worth your help?]
Gu Mang was speechless.
Just then, Flying Serpent sent a long message. [Fifth Brother, you seem odd. You have always disliked Red Flame. It’s already considered good that you are not attacking them when they are down. But you actually don’t care this time.]
Responsive Dragon also replied, [Yeah! I’ve asked Fifth Brother whether Red Flame has offended him before. He has suddenly found his conscience again.]
Mysterious Crane typed, [Fifth Brother, I suddenly realized something. Were you speaking up for Lu Chengzhou just now?]
Flying Serpent and Responsive Dragon also regained their senses. They sent questions marks in the chat slowly.
Three seconds later, the group chat blew up. Messages rushed in.
Responsive Dragon said, [What the f*ck! What’s the relationship between Fifth Brother and Lu Chengzhou?]
Flying Serpent pleaded, [Fifth Brother! Don’t be rash! If you need women, just tell us! Don’t go crazy over guys!]
Mysterious Crane said, [Do I know too much…]
Gu Mang lay the phone down on the table screen first expressionlessly. She propped her legs up on the table and placed the book on her knees and started reading.
…
Song Xian, Bian Xiulin and Jiang Yeguang entered the Blood Institute in the afternoon.
This news was relayed to Lu Zhan. Lu Chengzhou knocked on Lu Zhan’s door twice out of perfunctory courtesy, opened the door, and walked in slowly with one hand in his pocket.
“Dad.” The Lu Chengzhou sat on the sofa. He leaned forward slightly and poured two cups of tea.
Lu Zhan got up and walked towards the desk before sitting down in front of him. Lu Chengzhou placed a cup of tea in front of him.
Lu Zhan picked up the cup. “How did you get Song Xian to join your project?”
Lu Chengzhou narrowed his eyes and did not say anything. Nobody understood one’s son better than the father.
Lu Zhan could tell what he was thinking with just one look. “Don’t be offended by my words. You and Song Xian are not close. Other than threats and bribes, how else could you possibly secure his services?”
Lu Chengzhou remained silent and sipped on his tea.
Lu Zhan added, “Song Xian is from the Criminal Division. He’s different from Yu Zhongjing. Don’t be rash.”
Lu Chengzhou said calmly, “He’s Gu Mang’s master.”
Stunned, Lu Zhan looked at him. “You are saying that Song Xian is Gu Mang’s master?”
Lu Chengzhou nodded. “Gu Mang is GM, the chief forensic doctor of the Criminal Division.”
A trace of unusual surprise appeared in Lu Zhan’s eyes. The first ever female chief forensic doctor of the Criminal Division?
Gu Mang…
Looking at the piece of tea leaf floating in the cup, he took a while to regain his senses. Then, he smiled calmly, “She is really quite a surprise.”
It seemed like he was currying favor from Gu Mang. Lu Chengzhou smiled, as if he was savoring what he had just said.
Suddenly, he thought of something. The smile on his face froze slightly as he looked down. “Dad, my Mom…”
The expression on Lu Zhan’s face did not change much. However, his gaze became profound.
