Chapter 142: Seal Palace, A Little Sweet

Xie Chengyun was Lei Xiao’s boss. Doubt flashed in his eyes. Lei Xiao’s niece knew the Lu family and the Qin family? Qin Rui’s attitude made it obvious that he respected Lei Xiao’s niece, so why was Lei Xiao’s position taken away from him?

The others did not know about this and upon seeing that Lei Xiao had strong backers, they smiled obsequiously. “So you’re actually Ms. Gu’s uncle.”

Lei Xiao said nothing, the smile on his face a little stiff as the thoughts in his head ran wild.

How did Gu Mang and Gu Si know influential families from the capital?

Lu Chengzhou swept a glance across Lei Xiao’s expression and scoffed disdainfully. He said coldly, “I’ll be going. I’m busy.”

Lu Shangjin nodded. He called over the official behind him. “Let’s go in too.”

The group walked into World Restaurant.

Lei Xiao was frightened out of his mind. He kept looking back every few steps as he followed the group.

Qin Rui was at the tail end of the group. Once everyone else had gone in, he looked at Gu Mang and said, “Ms. Gu, will Yaozhi’s body recover naturally with food therapy or does she need Chinese medicine to recuperate?”

Lu Chengzhou turned and looked behind him. Qin Fang had said that he had spent half a year looking all over for expert doctors but had not found any who could cure the girl.

Yet, Gu Mang was the one who cured her, and with only one dose of medicine no less. She knew Chinese medicine inside and out, and had even mastered acupuncture. Yet she scored zero on all of her exams.

A flash of interest flashed across the man’s eyes.

Gu Mang stood lazily with one hand in her pocket. She held the milk tea by the lid with only three of her fingers. Her wrist was completely relaxed. She said nonchalantly, “Food therapy. I will prescribe a diet for Qin Yaozhi tomorrow and perform acupuncture on her once more next week.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Fang’s worries disappeared. He bowed slightly. “Thank you, Ms. Gu.”

Gu Mang grunted expressionlessly and turned to leave.

…

The car stopped outside Seal Palace.

Gu Si jumped out from the passenger seat. He saw Lu Chengzhou carrying a bunch of documents with him and, curious, he asked, “What are you carrying?”

The man cocked a eyebrow. “Year Three revision materials for your sister.”

Gu Si narrowed his eyes in disbelief. “What did you say?”

Did this guy get something wrong? His sister, needing Year Three revision materials?

With a single hand in her pocket, Gu Mang pinched the corner of her eyes. With an indifferent expression, she said, “I’m tired. I’ll finish the revision papers quickly and go to sleep.”

She walked carelessly to the lift as she spoke.

Gu Si said nothing. He didn’t know what his sister wanted to do, but he figured he should just stay silent and watch.

At Lu Chengzhou’s condominium.

Gu Si took off his shoes. “Where’s the washroom?”

Lu Chengzhou pointed his chin to his left and a barefoot Gu Si ran off to use the washroom.

“Will you be taking a shower first?” Lu Chengzhou asked in a low voice, looking at Gu Mang.

Gu Mang took off her cap and hung it on a hook on the wall as she cocked an eyebrow and nodded. “Make me a cup of honey water, thank you.”

Lu Chengzhou chuckled lightly as he watched her command him so naturally. “Mm. I have clothes in the wardrobe. They’re clean.”

“Got it,” said Gu Mang as she walked to his bedroom.

She pulled open the wardrobe. Half of the clothes inside were black and white women’s clothes. They were exactly what she liked.

All of the clothes were custom-made by a luxury brand. They had all been matched into sets. There were even pajamas.

Gu Mang paused and crossed her arms. She took a step back nonchalantly and looked over at the clothes in the wardrobe and her lips curled into a wicked smirk.

The clothes had not been there last week but he had made ample preparations this time.

How did he know that she would come?

After thinking for a moment she restrained her smile, took a white long-sleeved shirt from the closet, and walked out.

Lu Chengzhou was making honey water.

Gu Si had already come back from the washroom and was cozied up on the sofa playing with his phone.
