Chapter 443: You Haven’t Recovered But You Are Already Thinking A Lot
Upon hearing this, Missing Gateway and the others turned to the door subconsciously. Everyone was stunned when they saw Gu Mang’s face.
She was wearing a black silk shirt and black loose-fitting sweatpants. She was tall and slender, with pale skin. Her exquisite eyes were cold and she walked in a relaxed manner.
She gave off an aura that said, “Don’t mess with me”.
This was Silence...
Everyone was so shocked. When they returned to their senses, they bowed properly.
Gu Mang walked to Lu Chengzhou, her delicate eyebrows drooping. She said in a low voice, “Get on with your work, I will take the cake away.”
Lu Chengzhou grabbed her hand and made her sit down. “Accompany me here.”
Gu Mang thought for a while. “Oh.” She looked at him. “I want some water, do you have any disposable cups?”
Lu Chengzhou raised his chin and pointed at his cup on the table. “Use mine, there’s honey on the table.”
Gu Mang nodded and walked over to make some honey water. Everyone else, who were treated as if invisible, was speechless.
Lu Chengzhou looked as Gu Mang made the honey water and sat beside him. Then, he looked at the people standing at the end of his bed. “Go on.”
“Yes,” Missing Gateway bowed and replied respectfully, then he looked at Lu Chengzhou. “We wish to collaborate with Shadow League and crack the online conversation with Arctic Fox.”
Hearing this, one of Gu Mang’s eyebrows twitched a little.
She turned sideways and took a macaron from the table. Then, she tore the wrapper off. Lu Chengzhou curled his fingers around the corner of Gu Mang’s shirt. She had accidentally exposed the snow-white skin on her waist so he covered it up.
Qin Fang looked at Missing Gateway. “Arctic Fox only takes on one mission a year. Even if Shadow League accepts, Arctic Fox might not be the one taking on the mission.
They could not count on Nine Tails, Black Eagle, or any of the others.
Missing Gateway frowned. Arctic Fox did have a strange temper. They took on only one request a year, preferring to focus on personally interesting tasks.
A girl with a ponytail asked, “Then what shall we do?”
The matter had been dragged on for too long. They hadn’t slept in days, tearing their hair out over this problem. It was like a snowball fight. When the snowball hit you, you were not afraid. People were afraid of where the snowball might land more than where it actually ended up going. Now, they felt just like that. They were afraid that they would be helpless if attacked.
They were silent for a minute.
Lu Chengzhou said calmly, “Look for Shadow League. As long as Arctic Fox agrees to take on the mission, they can name whatever price they want.”
Missing Gateway answered, “Yes.”
Gu Mang heard them report about the recent news on Mingyu Island before leaving. The door of the medical room shut. Lu Chengzhou turned towards Gu Mang and saw that the box of macarons beside her was now empty. He looked less aggressive.
The next night...
Gu Mang had finished a round of her game and she was looking at the results of the match. She grabbed her cup casually and took a sip. There was still some honey water left so she passed it to him.
Her eyes were still glued to her screen.
The corner of Lu Chengzhou’s lips curled up. He took the cup, finished the water, and put it on the table behind her.
Then, he seized the opportunity to wrap his arms around her waist. His arms were really thin. He could feel the bones in the back of her spine.
He asked with a low voice, “What happened with all the food that you ate? And all the desserts?”
Gu Mang looked up expressionlessly and turned to him from the phone. Then she said, “Oh. I exercise a lot.”
Glucose was needed for thinking. There was no way she could gain weight when she had so much thinking to do.
Lu Chengzhou looked at her as if he had a lot to say. “What if you exercise more in the future? Will you get even slimmer?”
Hearing this, Gu Mang squinted and looked towards his lower body. “You haven’t even recovered and you are already thinking quite a lot.”
