Chapter 427: Identity Revealed. Xing Zhi: I’m Too Freaking Scared
After washing her hands, she shook off the water and looked up at the mirror. In the reflection, she saw Lu Chengzhou’s blood on her face. Her skin was pale and the blood was bright like fire. It made her seem rather crazy.
Gu Mang ignored the blood on her face and walked out of the washroom. She took a set of clothes from the washroom and went back again. After she was done showering, she sat by her bed and wiped her hair dry. Her phone vibrated. She paused and left the towel on her head as she looked at her phone.
It was a message from Lin Shuang. In the past hour, she had sent quite a number of messages and there were around ten minutes between each message.
Lin Shuang: Little Sister Gu, are you really going to face Red Flame head on?
Lin Shuang: From the way that you look at Lu Chengzhou, I think that he will not let you off so easily. Sis, you’re in a pretty dangerous situation.
Lin Shuang: Black Eagle and I tried to attack the intelligence network system at Red Flame. I’m sorry, we can’t do anything!
The two most recent messages had been sent in the past few minutes.
Lin Shuang: I have discussed with Yun Ling. You should stay at Red Flame. When the training is over, we will go to Red Scorpion and No. 14 Research Center to cause trouble so that Lu Chengzhou will not have time to care about you. Then, we will pick you up on the way back.
Lin Shuang: Are you sure about going against Red Flame?
She seemed to be worried about something so she confirmed with Gu Mang again. Gu Mang carelessly wiped her hair with one hand and held her phone in the other as if she was thinking about how to reply.
After a while, she began to type.
Gu Mang: not sure
Lin Shuang: ???
Gu Mang looked down, thought for a while, and replied: He went to the torture room on his own and almost lost his life. I just saved him.
Lin Shuang: …
Gu Mang put down her phone and continued drying her hair. She suddenly thought of something and she stared straight ahead. Then, she turned to the wastebasket. She looked down and got up to walk over. Then, she bent over to pick up the chocolates that she had thrown into the wastebasket and put them back to their original place on the table. Then, she sat back on the bed.
Her phone vibrated for a while and she looked at it.
Lin Shuang: How harsh! Red Flame’s proficiency is well known. There is no need to question the medical proficiency of the doctors. If you had to step in, it means that the doctors at Red Flame could not resuscitate Lu Chengzhou. How harsh he must have been on himself that he almost died in the Enforcement Hall? This mysterious big boss must be very harsh and cruel to go so hard on himself!
When Gu Mang saw Lin Shuang’s message, she recalled how badly injured Lu Chengzhou was. She had an inexplicable expression on her face. She felt rather odd as well. It seemed like she was avenged.
Seven days…
Lin Shuang sent another message: Alright, then I’ll tell Yun Ling that this matter will be put aside for now.
Gu Mang: Okay. She thought for a while and added two more words. Thank you.
Lin Shuang laughed. Lin Shuang: Always be prepared. If Lu Chengzhou dares to offend you again, Shadow League is still no push over!
The corner of Gu Mang’s lips curled up and she had a rather sly expression in her eyes.
…
Early next morning.
Gu Mang opened the room door. She changed into her camouflage training uniform and put on her hat and mask to cover up her exquisite face.
Xing Zhi looked at her and still maintained that exceptionally respectful attitude that he had for her last night. “Miss Silence.”
Gu Mang narrowed her eyes and said, “Silence.”
Xing Zhi felt uncomfortable and looked at her. Then, he bowed. “I can’t.”
Gu Mang looked annoyed and said slowly, “For the last time, Silence.”
Xing Zhi felt like his heart had skipped a beat and he was really scared. “Yes.”
Gu Mang raised her exquisite eyebrows. “How was training yesterday?”
