Chapter 1013: Renegade! Moving In The Same Direction!
These days.
Gu Mang still entered the Elders’ Association Council House to deal with matters on time.
Everyday, Gu Si fiddled with a bunch of random things like silver needles and all sorts of special medicine, as well as some injections which could cause unconsciousness.
Yu Mufeng found it funny and he stared at him. “Did you bring so many things along because you intend to escape and use those sub-par needling skills to make ends meet?”
“Do I look like that kind of person?!” Gu Si answered nonchalantly. “I practice Chinese Medicine, what’s wrong with carrying a few needles around me at all times?”
The corner of Yu Mufeng’s lips twitched. “So should people who study Chemistry bring a bottle of acid around them at all times?”
Gu Si couldn’t be bothered about him.
The Leng family kept a low profile. They lived in the seclusion of their own home like a family clan that had declined.
Gu Mang took some time to visit the Bai family. She took Bai Qingqing and Bai Sui along.
Just as she reached the entrance to the main hall, she saw the owners of the various families who had always been listening to the Bai Family walk out with pride.
When they saw Gu Mang, they just bowed perfunctorily. “Director Gu.”
No sincerity could be felt from the greetings.
Gu Mang’s eyes drooped down naturally and she ignored them. She walked in and she looked cold and arrogant from the back.
When the group of people saw her, they frowned.
“I don’t get why she’s so arrogant. She doesn’t even hold much actual power and her forces had already been eliminated by Brahma. She doesn’t even have many of them left.”
“Yeah, how much longer can she stay on that Director’s seat?”
“Ignore her. Old Master Bi is still waiting for us.”
“Alright…”
Gu Mang reached the hall and there was only one unfamiliar face left.
Old Master Bai looked at the young man who was in his twenties. “Tang Yu, aren’t you leaving with them?”
Tang Yu answered simply, “Mr. Bai has helped my younger sister before. I may not be able to offer any repayment, but I can still share any of your honor and disgrace.”
Old Master Bai sighed and looked at Gu Mang who entered. “Gu Mang, why are you here at such a time?”
“Grandpa, Uncle.” Gu Mang greeted them and pointed her chin outside. “What’s going on?”
Bai Zhang pursed his lips. “They’ve started taking sides now. Those people have already gotten on Bi Family’s side.”
These days, Gu Mang and the Elders’ Association seemed to be calm.
But everyone knew that the day of the takeover ceremony might just be the date that the Head Elder decided for Gu Mang to die.
It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Among Gu Mang and the Head Elder, any smart person would choose the latter.
Who doesn’t want to protect the glory of their family?
“Oh.” Gu Mang did not really care. “Renegade, huh?”
Nobody spoke.
Gu Mang pursed her lips and there was an evil look in her eyes.
When the person in the main hall left, her cousins walked out with a young girl who was about four years old.
The young girl was Tang Yu’s younger sister.
Bai Zhang looked at Gu Mang. “Do you have something to tell me?”
“I have enough people with me now, so I’d like two of them to return here.” Gu Mang glanced at Bai Feichi and Bai Yan. Then, she ordered, “Protect my younger cousins well.”
In the chaos at Base 102, several juniors from the Bai family and her uncle’s son were also on the list of missing persons.
There was no way that one could walk out from the pain of the bereavement of his own children. Although he had this pair of twins now, it did not help. They could not let anything happen to the two of them anymore.
Bai Sui and Bai Qingqing bowed respectfully. “Understood.”
Old Master Bai looked at Gu Mang and his old eyes looked exceptionally heavy. He cautioned her, “No matter what you do, be careful. Stay vigilant when you’re out there. Things have been chaotic lately.”
“Don’t worry, I know.” Gu Mang returned the helpers and she put on her mask to get ready to leave.
Bai Feichi walked over with Bai Yan and he removed a lollipop from his pocket. “Sis, this is for you and brother.”
Gu Mang stopped in her tracks and her mask hung from one ear. She took the two lollipops from him and patted them on their heads. “Thanks.”
The two children smiled widely.
Everything was calm and peaceful.
…
Meanwhile, at the Bi residence.
Old Master Shen looked at how lively things were going at the Bi Family’s side and he laughed. “That Arctic Fox rejected you but the Shadow League still collaborated with Head Elder. Things are still moving in the same direction.”
He had said it long before. No one would refuse an olive branch from Jijing Island.
Shadow League included.
That Arctic Fox just thinks too highly of herself.
She is so extra that she made an unnecessary move to leave the Xingmu International Corporation. How would leaving the Xingmu International Corporation benefit her in any way? The annual salary that the Shen family paid her was crazily high.
She lost money in that maneuver.
Shen Xie said nothing in response.
The Shen family had a very high status in the capital. On Jijing Island, their position was neither high nor low, so they were still well-respected.
The future of the Shen family and the Xingmu International Corporation were bright.
Old Master Shen turned to his son, “When Jijing Island regains its peace, the Shen family’s assets will basically be transferred to Jijing Island. You can negotiate with Arctic Fox again and invite her back into the Xingmu International Corporation.”
Shen Xie nodded. “I’ll try to.”
…
On the day of the entrance into Base 102.
The people from Red Flame had already assembled. They were just waiting to enter the sub-island secretly at night.
After Lu Chengzhou had a phone call with Lan Sha, he ordered Lu Yī, “Shadow League and the technical team will deal with the air control. Bring everyone with you and be on standby at the sub-island.”
Lu Yī bowed and cupped his hands before his chest. “Got it.”
“Keep some people around in the villa.” Lu Chengzhou said.
Lu Yī responded and turned to get ready.
Suddenly, Lu Chengzhou’s phone rang. It was a call from Ye Junci.
…
In the study of the Ye family.
Lu Chengzhou threw his coat on the sofa and sat down.
Ye Junci leaned on the work desk with her arms crossed. “Many of the Ye family’s vassal families have rebelled. They all went to take refuge from the Head Elder, Leng Xuan, and the Bi family. It’s because they’re guessing that the takeover ceremony is going to be a fraud. I think the Bai family is in the same state as the Ye family.”
Lu Chengzhou poured a cup of tea for himself calmly.
He said, “Then we shall consider that we had an internal cleanup in the Ye family.”
“…Is that the point?”
Ye Junci stared at him. “There’s news from the finger man. The Head Elder has been communicating with Brahma and Black Eagle from Shadow League very frequently. There must be something coming up.”
Lu Chengzhou had received this news too, so he did not respond.
Ye Junci had never understood Lu Chengzhou fully. He had always looked this cold and casual around her. He was very distant.
“Do you and Gu Mang just intend to wait like that?” Ye Junci sounded rather anxious. She put down her hands and propped her hand against the table edge. “Just sit and wait for death?” ”
Lu Chengzhou still didn’t speak.
“Things have already reached such a point and you’re still acting mute with me?” Ye Junci took a few steps towards him and sat across from him.
“Gu Mang and I will be heading to Base 102 tonight with the help of the Dark Web.” Lu Chengzhou looked up.
Ye Junci frowned. “And you’re informing me now?”
“What do you think?” There wasn’t a change in Lu Chengzhou’s expression. He maintained his indifferent and cold look. “Should I ask for your opinion?”
Ye Junci was tongue-tied.
She knew that even if she told her that Gu Mang cannot go, no one would listen to her.
Lu Chengzhou finished his tea. “I’m leaving.”
“Chengzhou…” Ye Junci stood up and looked at Lu Chengzhou’s back as he stopped. “Be careful and take good care of Gu Mang.”
Lu Chengzhou waved with his back facing her.
…
At the other side.
Leng Xuan pushed the clubhouse door open, entered, and sat down. “Are the arrangements for the people done?”
Brahma nodded. “We will act tonight.”
“What about Mr. Black Eagle?” Leng Xuan looked around the room.
Just as she said that, the door to the room was pushed open again. A person who looked mixed walked in.
“My apologies for being late.” Black Eagle looked cold around strangers and he looked like a man of few words.
Everyone greeted Black Eagle and they began to discuss the action plan for the night.
The Head Elder looked at Black Eagle and Brahma, and he said, “There are some things that we cannot meddle with internally, so we would have to seek help from the both of you.”
Brahma narrowed his eyes, revealing his murderous intent.
Black Eagle nodded calmly. “You’re being too polite, Head Elder.”
Brahma looked at Leng Xuan and the Head Elder. “Keep an eye on the Bai family and the Ye family.”
The two of them hummed an acknowledgment.
Leng Xuan raised her teacup. “I hope to see good news tomorrow morning.”
The Head Elder thought of Gu Mang and Gu Si’s talents, and he still felt that it was quite a waste to just get rid of them like that.
But if he kept them around, they would only cause trouble, so he might as well just get rid of them.
While Black Eagle drank his tea, his deep eyes were slightly narrowed and he smirked silently.
