Chapter 526: Does One Get Addicted To Being a Parent?

After hanging up the phone, Yu Shu sat silently. Her eyes were low so her emotions could not be seen. In the past, she had always been by Lu Chengzhou’s side. But each time, He Yidu and Qin Fang were there. She had never been with Lu Chengzhou in private.

Yu Shu recalled when everything began to change.

Not long after she had met Gu Mang in Ming City and Gu Mang went to the Lu residence to treat Matriarch Lu, things changed. From then, Lu Chengzhou began to return to the capital less. He is almost always in Ming City.

Yu Shu’s fingers tightened slowly. She sat there and pondered. After a while, she pulled down the piano cover forcefully and got up to walk out of the piano room.

Gu Mang was already in the capital. If this continued, everyone would know about it.

They would all know that she, Yu Shu, was not even the decided but unannounced daughter-in-law of the Lu family.

She could not allow herself to be humiliated.

Yu Shu reached the door of the study and pushed the door open. “Dad.”

…

Red Scorpion.

Lu Chengzhou’s subordinates had finished reporting on Red Scorpion. “Young Master Lu, if there’s nothing else, we shall take our leave.”

Lu Chengzhou hummed. They bowed and turned to leave.

Before leaving, they looked at Gu Mang’s side. Her legs were crossed and one arm was resting on the sofa casually. She held her phone in the other hand and tapped on the keyboard calmly.

Her posture was very casual. She had a calm expression on her face and she was very quiet. After a short glance, they looked away and left the office.

After Lu Chengzhou signed two documents, he put them aside and looked up at Gu Mang. He casually turned his gaze to the dartboard. The two darts Gu Mang had thrown earlier were stuck in the edge of the outermost ring. They were both almost in the same spot.

He paused for two seconds and the corner of his lips curled up. He put his pen down and got up.

Gu Mang was chatting with Meng Jinyang on WeChat. “Is Lawyer Jiang accompanying you to the university entrance exams?”

Meng Jinyang answered, “Yeah, the examination venue is very far from Seal Palace. I have to stay at a hotel. Brother Jiang said that it was not safe so he would accompany me there.”

Gu Mang raised her eyebrows. “Alright, then you won’t need me around.”

Meng Jinyang replied, “I have sent Gu Si’s admission pass to you.”

Gu Mang replied, “Yeah I got it”.

A dark shadow approached Gu Mang and she looked up to see Lu Chengzhou standing before her. She recalled that before the joint exams, she had been constantly reminded by Lu Chengzhou to study. He even took Year Three papers and offered to explain the answers to her.

Even the teachers who set the papers were shocked. They had given her a lot of intensive practice papers. She looked at him with her cold, clear eyes without blinking.

Lu Chengzhou grabbed her by the chin. “What are you looking at?”

Gu Mang thought for a second. “Does one get addicted to being a parent?”

“Why are you asking this?” Lu Chengzhou sat beside her.

Gu Mang showed him her phone.

Lu Chengzhou wrapped his arms around her waist and looked at the chat history. “Not of being a parent but for other roles, yes.”

Gu Mang went silent. Then, she said calmly, “Forget it, I never asked.”

The corner of Lu Chengzhou’s lips curled up and he played with her ear. “Do you think Jiang Shenyuan is a good person?”

Meng Jinyang’s case did have a great impact, but it was not like there wasn’t an even more tragic case.

Why won’t Jiang Shenyuan get divine help?

Gu Mang looked at him and did not answer.

“Jiang Xingyi was responsible for the case. The defendant was only sentenced to three years during the first court hearing, but twelve years after appeal. Was that you?” Lu Chengzhou asked.

Although Gu Mang was only 5 years old that year, Lu Chengzhou’s instincts told him that she had something to do with the increased sentence.

Gu Mang had no expression on her face, but her eyes were dark, like an abyss. There was no light in them and no emotions could be seen on her face.

Jiang Xingyi was Jiang Shenyuan’s father. He had been in charge of Meng Jinyang’s case.

During the first court hearing, she almost killed that beast.

Her parents locked her up.
