Upon hearing Meng Jinyang say this, Gu Mang recalled something and a ruthless look flashed across her cold eyes.
She looked up into Meng Jinyang’s guilty face and smiled suddenly.
Her beautiful eyes were wild as she said nonchalantly, “Sure, but you’ll have to do my homework for me when we go to school.”
Upon hearing this, Meng Jinyang twitched slightly.
Oh well, it was good enough that Guy Mang was willing to go to school with her.
Meng Jinyang’s gaze grew impatient. “Then let’s go back to Changning County right now.”
Gu Mang chewed on a piece of deathly sweet dried strawberry, her eyes cool and clear. “We won’t be going back to the county. We’ll be going to Ming City.” 2
Meng Jinyang looked at her in surprise. “Why?”
“My parents got into an accident half a year ago and are dead.”
“What?!” Meng Jinyang’s expression underwent a drastic change. “How did that happen?”
Gu Mang’s expression did not change as she said concisely, “Because of an accident.”
Meng Jinyang’s heart thumped wildly. “What about Gu Yin and Gu Si?”
“You don’t have to concern yourself with this. I’ll find a school in Ming City and accompany you there.”
Gu Mang’s voice was cool and quiet as she mentioned her deceased parents. Her eyes were calm like deep lakes as a sinister coldness emanated from the corner of her eyes.
Seeing that she did not want to speak further on the topic, Meng Jinyang stopped talking about it. “I’ll go pack up then.”
“Mm.”
Gu Mang had finished nearly all the dried fruit on the two plates.
She watched Meng Jingyang pack up her belongings. “Jinyang, do you feel any discomfort after the operation?”
Meng Jinyang’s back was towards her, so Gu Mang could not see her expression. She only heard her say in a relaxed voice, “No, I’m quite well. The artificial colon is much more convenient than the bowel pouch and I can now go to the toilet normally.” 7
Gu Mang’s cool dark eyes stared at Meng Jinyang’s back.
She ascertained that Meng Jinyang did not tremble or freeze up, meaning she wasn’t nervous.
Her cool gaze returned to her phone screen.
She stared at her chat log with Lin Shuang and her lips curled into a wicked and wild smile.
She was also curious if she would emerge victorious against Lu Chengzhou.
…
The Lu Residence.
Granny Lu opened her eyes.
There were a few shadows moving about near the bottom of her vision.
Her limp eyelids trembled a little and the shadows gradually sharpened.
Lu Xiwei was looking at some data on an instrument and was conferring with a few military doctors.
One of the military doctors looked towards the bed and realized that the old grandmother was awake. Hurriedly, he said, “Ms. Lu, the Matriarch is awake.”
Lu Xiwei turned her head immediately.
Upon seeing that the old grandmother was awake, her eyes widened excitedly. She rushed towards the bed and held the elderly hand as she looked on with reddened eyes. “Granny!”
Granny Lu’s voice was weak but still severe. “What are you crying for? I’m not dead.”
“Don’t say such nonsense, Granny.” Lu Xiwei cast a rebuking look at her with moist eyes. “Did you know I thought I wasn’t going to be able to save you?” 6
The military doctors hung their heads but their eyes shone with a hint of light.
It seemed like Ms. Lu had decided to take the credit for the successful treatment. 4
All the best doctors in the world had come and gone through the Lu Residence’s gates, but none had been able to turn grandmother’s illness around.
Ms. Lu’s successful treatment would definitely shock the entire world.
It would earn her both fame and fortune. 2
Granny Lu looked at Lu Xiwei and said in a kindly tone, “It has been hard on you. Your medical skills are improving, Xiwei.”
Lu Xiwei smiled with pursed lips and looked humble. 7
