Chapter 661: Gu Si Likes To Play Dark Tricks
At the dessert stall near the West gate of Capital University.
Gu Mang and Elder Bai sat on the deck in front of the French windows on the second floor. Elder Bai glanced at the cheap coffee in front of him and then at the cheap bubble tea in front of Gu Mang.
The young lady should be quite rich. Why would she come to this kind of shop? His thoughts went back and forth several times, before he came to a conclusion. Seems like supporting her brother uses up a lot of money.
She could not even bear to spend money on herself. Who knows what method she used to send her brother to Red Flame.
And how much she spent.
Gu Mang crossed her legs and looked up. In a cold and calm voice, she asked, “Why are you here at the capital?”
Elder Bai came back to his senses and answered respectfully, “Yesterday, I had a business deal at No. 14 Research Center in Ming City. I saw news on the internet that night and was worried that the Bi family would make things difficult for you, so I came to the capital. I didn’t think that you would resolve the situation before I got off the plane.”
Even Master Bi had lost face and returned to Jijing Island.
She lifted an eyebrow at that.
Her phone vibrated suddenly. She picked it up and glanced at the unread message. Then she casually replied.
Elder Bai had a very high status on Jijing Island. At this moment, as he sat opposite Gu Mang, he felt a little restrained and his breathing lightened. He hadn’t seen the young lady before him in a few years. Now, whenever she glanced at him, he dared not breathe too hard.
There was silence for a minute and Elder Bai thought for some time before he asking, “Miss, how is Gu Si now?”
Gu Mang propped her face up with her hand and answered indifferently, “Pretty good.”
Elder Bai nodded, remained silent for a second, and lowered his head to report, “Mr. Huo has been on Mingyu Island this whole time. He made his requests at the Elder’s Meeting. If he cannot take Gu Si back, he will do something to you...”
Gu Mang looked up. Elder Bai met with her deep, dark eyes. A chill ran down his spine.
After a while, Gu Mang smiled and tapped on her face.
“Is he threatening me?”
“You know how the Elder’s Meeting is. Not to mention your medicine...” Elder Bai was a little worried. “Was Yu Zhongjing’s experiment unsuccessful?”
The smile at the corner of Gu Mang’s mouth vanished and her delicate eyebrows revealed a bit of ruthlessness. Elder Bai knew what had happened by her silence.
He sighed. “Leng Xuan said that no one in this world has better medical skills than him and that you can only come back with your brother.”
After Gu Mang finished her last sip of milk tea, she placed the cup on the table, and leaned back with her wrists resting on the table.
Her aura was very attractive.
She looked at Elder Bai for a few seconds, and said, “Then she is doomed. Gu Si likes to play dark tricks.”
Elder Bai was stunned. “Are you and him thinking about...”
Gu Mang tilted her head and smiled.
...
Mingyu Island.
“Young Master He, Young Master Qin, people from Jijing Island have been increasingly active on our site lately. The brothers and I are getting a little bit annoyed with it and we want to do something about it.” Lu Jiu was holding the intelligence documents that had been collected by the intelligence organization.
Qin Fang sneered. “Does Huo Zhi think that they are on their turf?”
They were looking for Red Flame’s base on Mingyu Island in such an unscrupulous manner.
When Qin Fang and He Yidu had investigated Huozhi earlier, they were surprised to find out that he was the current head of Jijing Island.
The amount of confidential information on Jijing Island was very high. The big families were rich in talents and their technology was definitely advanced. Most of the international art and academic summits were held on Jijing Island, after all.
They have been trying to infiltrate Jijing Island for years but to no avail. Jijing Island had always had a wide outreach and their power stretched out to various other nations.
Except Mingyu Island.
Huo Zhi and Brother Cheng. One mountain could not contain two tigers.
Many of the top families in the capital were closely related to Jijing Island. This included the Qin and He families.
Even the biggest families in the capital trembled with fear upon hearing Huo Zhi’s name.
Only the Lu family could stand eye to eye with him.
