Jiangsui’s face was slightly sullen too. “This matter isn’t easy to deal with. Huo Zhi and the Elders’ Association have their eyes on Sister Mang at all times.”
And there was that life or death agreement…
Yu Mufeng nodded. “Huo Zhi’s burn injury has not healed, so he did not come to the villa these past few days. If he comes over, he will surely sense something.”
They had to make plans early.
“Plans?” Gu Mang wanted to get some beer out of habit. As her fingers were about to touch the can, she stopped and moved to get warm water instead. “No plans.”
.
The three of them were confused.
Gu Mang took a sip of water and answered with a calm tone, “Just go with the flow.”
“G-Go with the flow?” Yu Mufeng looked at her dumbly. He had been cautious because he thought that his Little Grandmaster would be very bothered by the situation.
He found it strange. Given the big boss’s skills, there weren’t many people who could hurt her among the top tier international mercenaries. Yet, she ended up suffering such a serious injury.
It had to represent a serious blow to her quality of life. How could she… be so nonchalant now?
Gu Mang tapped her chopsticks on the steaming pot and said nonchalantly, “Eat.”
The three of them were silent. They were all worried, shocked, fearful, and nervous. Ye Gu Mang was very calm, extremely calm.
“Okay,” the three answered gloomily and took out pieces of meat from the pot.
Gu Si suddenly thought of something and he stopped moving his chopsticks. He turned his head fiercely and asked, “Sis, did you take sleeping pills?!”
At a time like this, his sister was definitely not allowed to take sleeping pills! But there was a whole bottle in his sister’s room! One-third of the medicine bottle was already empty!
Because of what Gu Si said, Yu Mufeng and Jiangsui instantly felt like an invisible hand was squeezing their hearts tightly. Their breathing slowed and they stared at Gu Mang.
Gu Mang turned and looked at Gu Si. She raised her eyebrows a little and gave him a slight smirk. “Guess.”

Gu Si was speechless.
…
Gu Si converted his anger and sorrow into hunger. He finished several plates of meat on his own.
It was getting late and Gu Mang needed to rest, so they all ate rather quickly. In about an hour, they all left the hotpot restaurant. When they returned to the villa, it was almost midnight.
Upon entering, they saw a woman seated on the sofa. She wore a logo dress and she had long legs. Her blue eyeliner made her eyes look seductive and charming. Bai Sui and Bai Qingqing were sitting with her.
Bai Sui looked at Gu Mang. Then, he got up and greeted respectfully, “Young Lady, Young Master.”
Bai Qingqing stood up as well and bowed in greeting.
“You’re back.” Lin Shuang extinguished her cigarette on the ashtray and turned to face Gu Mang.
Gu Si was rather surprised. “Sister Lin.”
Lin Shuang smiled. “Good boy.”
“Why have you come?” Gu Mang looked at her and walked over calmly.
Lin Shuang answered, “Shadow League has received the news about you entering into a bold agreement with the Elders’ Association. Yun Ling said that there’s no way that the agreement would be as simple as it seems and that Jijing Island has been a bit too peaceful recently. I am worried that something will happen on your side, so I’ve come to have a look.”
“I’m fine,” Gu Mang said rather expressionlessly.
“Fine?” Lin Shuang pointed her chin at Gu Mang’s right arm, which was wrapped in a cast. “I’ve never seen you injured like this before.”
When Bai Sui heard this, his eyes dimmed.
Gu Mang did not want to continue talking about her injury. “It’s already 12am, I’m tired. Let’s talk tomorrow.”
Lin Shuang raised her eyebrows. “Sure, which room do I sleep in?”
The villa was not big and there were no empty rooms right now.
Gu Mang answered, “With me.”

Lin Shuang nodded. She picked up her black backpack from the sofa.
Gu Mang led Lin Shuang back to the room while the others dispersed and returned to have some rest.
