Chapter 509: It’s Good to be Alive and He was Not Looking to Die
When they swept the tomb the last time, Gu Mang warned all her relatives that if they wished to co-exist peacefully, they should not trifle with her. Therefore, Lei Xiao was not very sure either. Given Gu Mang’s dark and odd personality, he had no idea what she would do.
However, what could she do?
Lei Xiao harrumphed coldly. “The house isn’t even hers. When the will was read previously, she did not utter a single word at the burial. What does it have to do with her now?”
Although he said this, Xia Mingzhu found it slightly unsettling. Before they had sold the house, they had gotten professionals value it. Through the professionals’ explanations, they realized that all the furniture in the house was expensive. The chandelier in the living room alone was worth a hundred thousand yuan.
It was impossible to move the furniture but selling the house together with the furniture would fetch a high price. It would be so high that they could pay upfront for a 200 square foot apartment in the most expensive neighborhood in Ming City.
…
He Yidu and Qin Fang informed Lu Chengzhou before leaving with Lu Yi and Lu San. Before leaving, He Yidu solemnly and sincerely apologized. He guaranteed that he would watch those who were blind in his family.
He apologized twice.
The first time he did, Gu Mang patiently acknowledged him with a perfunctory response. The second time he did, her eyes turned chilly.
A chilliness as cold as the winter assaulted him. He Yidu shut up and quickly fled with Qin Fang.
In the car, Qin Fang shot a glance at him speechlessly. “Old He, you’re a little too timid. You’re supposed to be as composed as Brother Cheng.”
Facing Qin Fang, He Yidu began to regain his composure and tugged at his lips. “I hope that you’ll have such good luck when you have a face off with a big boss.”
Qin Fang’s hair stood on end when he heard his laughter and was so frightened that he cursed. “A person with a high EQ would not make such a lowly mistake.”
It was good to be alive and he was not looking to die.
Lu Yi and Lu San truly believed that their current big boss was Ms. Gu. She was a scarier master than Young Master Lu.
…
The intimidating master finished showering and walked slowly to her bed to sit down, her gaze low.
Lu Chengzhou lifted his eyes and put down his phone. Her milky and fruity scent filled his lungs with every breath. His Adam’s apple rolled. His pupil darkened as well.
As usual, a glass of honey water was placed on the nightstand. Gu Mang raised her eyebrows and picked it up to drink. Her cheeks were puffy from drinking as she put down the glass. Swallowing the drink, she dried the ends of her wet hair with the towel and turned to look at him.
The girl’s eyes were clear and misty and her lashes were luscious and dark, making her eyes look stunning.
Her voice was low. “During the tomb sweeping day, I’ll return to Changning County.”
“Did your uncle call you earlier?” Lu Chengzhou asked.
“Ah,” Gu Mang uttered. Her annoyed eyebrows were slightly furrowed.
Gu Mang had this expression at every mention of the Lei family. Lu Chengzhou had met her uncle and found him a little talkative.
He raised his hand and pressed on her slightly pursed lips. “Is it that annoying?”
His fingers were warm and rough, making the corner of her lips slightly numb. For a moment, she had no idea how she should react. Her eyes seemed lost and her eyebrows were relaxed.
Two seconds later, she finally returned to her senses and she moved his hand away from her lips.
She said, “He is too naggy.”
When Lu Chengzhou heard her description, he could not contain his laughter and asked her, “Are you superstitious?”
Gu Mang did not understand him. “Mm?”
He responded, “Consider cutting your hair on the first month of the lunar year.”
Gu Mang laughed. “I’ll try it next time.”
