Chapter 781: An Accident At The Lu Residence.
Gu Mang looked a little to the side and leaned back with her arms crossed.
She stepped on the coffee table and looked at Lu Yī and Lu Qi. Her eyes were cold and ruthless. “Are you trying to tell me what to do?”
Lu Yī and Lu Qi took a big step back in unison to distance themselves from her. They looked down. “We’re subordinates. We won’t.”
Gu Mang looked away expressionlessly.
For a moment, it felt as if the knives at their arteries were retracted. Lu Yī and Lu Qi sighed in relief.
“Who came knocking at your door again?” Lu Chengzhou moved her leg so her feet were back on the floor. He also rolled down her pants leg. She had pushed them up to her knees in an unruly manner, revealing her cold, pale calves. “Don’t catch a cold.”
Gu Mang remained silent.
Fine.
Yu Mufeng had just calmed down but Lu Chengzhou’s words angered him again.
He scoffed. “Leng Xuan is such an idiot. What kind of brain does she have? Why does she want to go against Little Grandmaster? Who even knows her?”
She had used her authority to amend the competitors roster.
When Lu Chengzhou heard this, he looked at Yu Mufeng. “What’s the matter?”
“It’s the International Physiology Competition. The one that’s being held on Jijing Island,” Yu Mufeng explained angrily. “Little Grandmaster did not want to attend it but her name just ended up appearing on the roster for some reason.”
There was no way that she could not attend it now.
Everyone knew that Little Grandmaster always likes to do things her way. If she really got angry, who’d care about that silly competition? Why would the first and last rank matter to her?
But when it came to the Capital University, Little Grandmaster would not just sit back and watch.
The Medical Informatics specialization was the future of the medical field. The least educated among medical informatics students typically held a postgraduate degree. Only students with a masters degree or a PhD degree from various prestigious schools typically studied Medical Informatics.
Double degree graduate or doctorate student! All of them were very impressive.
Little Grandmaster had entered the traditional chinese medicine major and used it as a stepping stone to help her to get into the Medical Informatics specialization.
Principal Ren and Professor Yang had paved the way for her and given her all the resources. The two of them treated Little Grandmaster exceptionally well.
Of course she would not condone scoring a zero. She would not let Capital University to be an international laughing stock.
Lu Chengzhou looked at Gu Mang. “Are you going to Jijing Island to participate in the competition?”
Gu Mang nodded and chuckled. “Since they want to play, I’ll play.”
Although Lu Chengzhou did not know what had happened on Jijing Island, he could still make a rough guess at the general situation after listening to two facts from Gu Si.
But there were still some blank spaces in some areas.
He was not in a hurry to fill them in just yet. Her health was what mattered most.
The Blood Institute had researched for almost a decade and yet they could not get any results so they halted research.
Now that the research project had been restarted, they had reached the bottleneck very quickly. Making a breakthrough at this point was extremely difficult.
They still didn’t know much about the Qing Su that they had delivered earlier. There was no way Lu Chengzhou would feel okay about Gu Mang heading to Jijing Island without knowing that much.
“I’ll go with you,” he said.
Gu Mang looked at him for a few seconds before raising her eyebrow. “Sure.”
…
Early the next morning.
Just before Gu Mang and Lu Chengzhou were about to leave Royal Garden, Lu Zhan called.
He wanted Lu Chengzhou to return to the Lu residence. It seemed to be quite urgent.
Gu Mang looked at him. “I’m taking a private jet to Jijing Island. You can come over when you’re done.”
Lu Chengzhou nodded and sent a message to someone. Then, he said, “Lu Si is on Jijing Island. I gave him your number so he can communicate with you.”
Gu Mang said, “Alright.”
She had never seen Lu Si before.
The two parted ways in the underground parking lot.
It was 9.45am. Gu Mang arrived at the airport to wait for the private jet. There were five people participating in the competition, not including Gu Mang. Three were male and two were female.
They had been carefully selected by the medical school and a lot of effort had gone into training them for the competition.
Qin Yaozhi was also there as the translator.
