Chapter 944: Sorry To Disappoint All Of You
Brahma did not reply to that. He asked, “Would he pass?”
The Head Elder responded, “Given the capability of God Ji, that is for sure.”
“Since it is so, I feel like I already know the outcome of the assessment.” Brahma turned to look at Gu Mang. “Fifth sister, don’t forget to invite your big brother to the takeover ceremony.”
Gu Mang smirked. “Sure.”
At that moment, the expressions of everyone there changed dramatically.
Fifth sister? Did Brahma just call Gu Mang his fifth sister?
Everyone present were all geniuses. Even though Brahma only said a few words, the implication was enough for them to figure out what he meant. They all looked shocked and they stared at Gu Mang in disbelief.
Gu Mang sat deep in her chair. Her facial features were extremely delicate and the aura she gave off was very strong. She was cold and arrogant.
Then, everyone looked at Gu Si and Jiangsui. They did not look surprised at all.
Clearly, they had known for a long time.
Head Elder’s heart sank really deep. He maintained the forced smile on his face. “Is Young Lady God Ji?”
“What do you think?” Brahma raised his eyebrows. “I heard that you even signed an agreement with my fifth sister, Head Elder. If my fifth sister passes the assessment, all of the assets under the Elders’ Association that originally belonged to the Gu family will all go to her.”
The Head Elder tightened his grip on the armrest of his chair.
Leng Xuan looked down. The expression in her eyes could not be made out. Her hands were loose and she looked dumbfounded.
Ye Junci looked at Gu Mang in shock and confusion. Gu Mang was God Ji from Killer Alliance?
Huo Zhi only knew that Gu Mang was Silence after Gu Mang got hospitalized due to a serious injury that year. But he did not expect her to also be part of Killer Alliance.
She is God Ji…
Brahma turned to look at everyone and smiled. “Do you want my fifth sister to go through with the procedures and continue with the assessment or would you like to just hand over the assets and save us all some time, Head Elder?”
Everyone at the scene had held high positions for many years. They were very good at controlling their emotions. But at the moment, all of them had really bad expressions on their faces.
After a while, the Head Elder finally snapped back to reality. He gave a stiff laugh. “Since it is so, then we shall not waste any more time. I will get the documents signed and send them over to Young Lady.”
What is the point of assessing God Ji?! They had been humiliated by Gu Mang once. Would they let it happen again?
Brahma nodded. “Department Head Leng is the one who fired first. All of you saw it with your own eyes. Bai Sui intervened to protect my fifth sister, so I hope you can be just, Head Elder.”
What he meant was that Leng Shi got what she deserved. Whoever took action first held responsibility.
“Of course,” Head Elder said. It sounded like his teeth were clenched.
This was the shortest assessment in Base 102’s history. Not even half an hour had passed.
The assessment had ended. The Elders’ Association would have a business discussion about the remaining matters. Everyone was sent back in batches to the main island on the exclusive private jet specially meant for Base 102.
…
Elder Mo led Gu Mang, Brahma, and the others out of Base 102. He did not seem to be in a good state. When he looked sideways to glance at Gu Mang, his eyes seemed rather dull.
At Jijing Island.
Like Leng Xuan, Elder Mo did not have permission to tamper with Gu Mang’s data files.
When Gu Mang returned to Jijing Island, her identity had been exposed. A lot of people immediately went online to search for information about her. But even with Bi Ying from the Intelligence Department working on gathering data, hardly anything could be found on Gu Mang.
They all thought that Lu Chengzhou had removed all the information related to Gu Mang online.
So the various family clans with major power on Jijing Island sent people to Changning County, Ming City, and the Capital to investigate her. They were all places where Gu Mang had lived before.
In the past, Gu Mang had just been a problematic young girl who often got into fights. She had a lot of black marks on her record.
The schools that she went to expelled her and in the end, there was not a single school that was willing to accept her. The only odd thing was that when she was five, she had such tremendous strength that she beat up a grown man to the point of being half-paralyzed.
That was probably when she attracted the attention of the Gu family and the Head Elder.
Afterwards, they found out that Gu Mang was a the top scoring student on the university entrance exams at the age of seven. They also discovered her assets, such as the high-end luxury brand Lan Ting and X Voice Factory, both of which were under her name.
Honestly, they were not even worth mentioning on Jijing Island. Gu Mang could not get anywhere with just those assets.
As a result, they never felt that Gu Mang was threatening in any way. Once Huo Zhi and the Elders’ Association stopped protecting her, those who still resented the Gu family would definitely retaliate. That was what everyone thought.
Until today.
Now, they all knew that Gu Mang was God Ji from the Killer Alliance…
Elder Mo walked forward stiffly and led them out. He clenched his stiff hands which were behind his back.
Brahma looked at Lu Chengzhou who was beside Gu Mang. “That subordinate of yours is very brave. Any interest in joining Killer Alliance?”
Leng Shi was not an ordinary person.
As the head of the Special Agents Team, she held a very high position on Jijing Island. Yet, she was shot and killed by a mere subordinate.
Her death was rather casual and anticlimactic.
Killer Alliance was rather interested in this man.
Gu Mang looked up casually. “Are you trying to take my men away right in front of my face?”
Lu Chengzhou looked down slightly and stated his stance clearly. In a very respectful manner, he said, “Don’t worry, Young Lady. I have no interest in leaving your side.”
Gu Mang was speechless. She had been considering keeping quiet to watch him put on a show for Brahma. The moment he rejected the offer, she found him annoying no matter what he did. She did not say anything.
Brahma said with some disappointment, “Tsk, fine.”
They all walked out of the base. A helicopter was already waiting for them..
Brahma slanted his body and looked at Gu Mang. “Come to me if you need any help.”
Gu Mang nodded. “Thank you, big brother.”
This was the first time Brahma had heard her address him as ‘Big Brother.’ He laughed and patted her head. “You look like a little girl but you’re even more ferocious than a man. Take good care of yourself.”
Lu Chengzhou’s eyes landed on Brahma’s hand and his dark pupils shrank a little.
When Elder Mo saw how familiar Brahma and Gu Mang were with one another in their mannerisms, his heart sank deeper.
Huo Zhi came out of the base just then. He saw Brahma board the helicopter. He walked over and looked deeply at Bai Sui.
His eyes focused for a few seconds.
Afterwards, he turned to Gu Mang. His voice was warm and gentle. “Why didn’t you tell me that you were God Ji? I was so worried that you might not pass.”
Gu Mang’s eyes looked calm. “I’m sorry to disappoint all of you.”
She seemed like she couldn’t be bothered to talk anymore nonsense with him so she turned to board the other helicopter.
“Gu Mang…” Huo Zhi frowned but he could only watch as she left.
Before Gu Si left, he gave Huo Zhi a spiteful side-eye.
In the past, Huo Zhi could almost be regarded as his sister’s master. One could say that he had an advantage in courting his sister. However, he had been disqualified due to the very thing that gave him an advantage.
It was rather impressive in an ironic way.
…
At the same time.
At the Head Elder’s side.
Everyone from the Elders’ Association was still at the observation deck.
The Head Elder had originally brought Brahma to Base 102 as they wanted to collaborate with Killer Alliance. The lack of talent at Base 102 was worsening so it was certainly time for them to receive help from external sources.
The Head Elder had been excited to meet Brahma so he could bring God Ji to the island but just as soon as he had felt ascendant he found out that Gu Mang was God Ji, dashing his hopes and dreams for Base 102’s rejuvenation.
In the end, he shot himself in the foot and brought shame to the Elder’s Association.
With an outsider like Brahma at the scene, they could only follow the agreement and send over all of the assets to Gu Mang.
There was no room for regret because he could not humiliate himself in front of this person.
There was still the takeover ceremony at Base 102…
The Head Elder turned his head to look at Leng Xuan.
