Chapter 893: Could Not Keep Up the Act Anymore
Qin Fang still could not get over his shock. Just a few hours ago, we were still at Red Flame, but now we’re on Jijing Island.
Lu Chengzhou could not keep up the act anymore when he heard that Gu Mang was injured. He had tossed his work aside to fly straight to Jijing Island in the middle of the night.
Brother Cheng is quite the actor! If he hadn’t nearly lost it after hearing news of Gu Mang’s injury, we wouldn’t have known that he still remembered her. We only found out that Gu Mang had hypnotized him after He Yidu pestered Lin Shuang for days. Everything is clear now. Brother Cheng didn’t lose his memories of Gu Mang at all! Qin Fang could not describe the emotions he felt, but he had one word to describe Lu Chengzhou: wicked.
The atmosphere in the car was heavy and stifling. Qin Fang’s legs had long since gotten numb, but he dared not shift them even the slightest bit. He Yidu eventually broke the silence, asking, “Brother Cheng, how is Gu Mang?”
The temperature around Lu Chengzhou seemed to drop lower as he lowered his gaze and returned He Yidu’s question with another question. “What’s the situation like with the Leng family?”
“D*mn! You have no idea how ruthless Gu Si was! Not only did he bring dozens of barrels of gasoline to the Leng residence, but he even cut off the fire defense system in advance. The fire is still going strong at the moment. Things are a real mess over there.” Qin Fang shifted forward excitedly and grabbed the back of the passenger seat. That will probably teach a lot of people to behave for the time being. They have nothing they can use against Gu Si since he doesn’t even care about his own life.
Lu Chengzhou narrowed his bloodshot eyes. “Where are they?”
“The members of the Leng family suffered quite serious injuries while Huo Zhi and the Head Elder suffered superficial injuries,” lamented Qin Fang.
Even after hearing such good news, Lu Chengzhou’s murderous aura did not diminish even one bit. He said coldly, “Get Lu Si to deal with Leng Xuan. I want her alive.”
Qin Fang nodded. “Okay.”
Since we have pretty much settled the problems over here and Brother Cheng has already checked on Gu Mang, we can’t stay on Jijing Island any longer. If it weren’t for that huge incident, it would have been really risky for us to make the trip here. He Yidu asked, “Brother Cheng, are we going back to Red Flame now?”
“No, to the black market.” Lu Chengzhou then whipped out his phone to make a phone call.
Lu Yī started the car’s engine and drove out from the alley.
When the call connected, Lu Chengzhou said, “Grandpa, it’s me, Lu Chengzhou.”
Qin Fang and He Yidu were rendered speechless. W-what is he up to this time?
…
At the capital.
When Lu Zhan received Ye Junci’s call, he jumped to his feet in shock. “Come again? Gu Si burned down the Leng residence and maimed Leng Xuan’s hands?!”
Ye Junci had never heard Lu Zhan sound so agitated before. Although, she tensed up herself as well.
The fire at the Leng residence had blazed for more than an hour and it was only finally extinguished after Jijing Island’s military helicopters were mobilized to help fight the fire. Half of the manor burned down, alarming everyone on Jijing Island.
Currently, all the big hospitals’ burn departments were filled with members of the Leng family, as well as Huo Zhi and the Head Elder’s underlings.
Ye Junci took in a deep breath and answered as calmly as she could manage, “Yes.”
“What happened?” Lu Zhan slowly sat back down as he regained his composure.
Ye Junci briefly recounted the event to him.
“Leng Xuan made a move on Gu Mang?” Lu Zhan frowned in all seriousness. “How is Gu Mang doing?”
“Apart from her slightly serious hand injury, she is fine.”
