BXBX NOVEL Chapter 543 - He Just Has To Break The Rules
Chapter 543: He Just Has To Break The Rules
“Although I am from the village, I dreamt of joining Red Scorpion since I was young, but Red Scorpion thought that I was too young to be accepted, so I could only go to the Beast Camp and wait for you to select me,” Gu Si said innocently.
Qin Fang and He Yidu were left speechless.
“To fulfill my hopes and dreams, my elder sister shared the pain with me.” As Gu Si spoke, he even dramatized and pouted to look like he was really depressed and pained.
He was about to continue lying when...
“Okay, enough.” Qin Fang couldn’t stand it any longer. “If you do not wish to speak the truth, you can choose not to. You are being so ridiculous.”
He Yidu knew how Brother Cheng fell into Gu Si’s trap of spending a billion on assassins for himself. His acting skills were superb.
Gu Si dropped the act instantly and he shrugged. With a spiteful look, he said, “You are men and yet you like to gossip so much.”
“Tsk,” Qin Fang said. “I don’t think you actually want to devote yourself to Red Scorpion but rather, the entertainment industry.”
Gu Si was disinterested in acting. He looked down and flipped a page of the book in his hand.
The corner of He Yidu’s mouth curled up. “Kid, who is Lin Shuang?”
Gu Si frowned and stared at him cautiously. “What do you want?”
He Yidu smiled. “Don’t worry, she merely bombed our base. We aren’t that petty. But she’s rather impressive. I want to get to know her and befriend her.”
Qin Fang looked at He Yidu, feeling confused.
There’s no need to be so interested in Lin Shuang. If they learn anything new, how would they explain to Gu Mang?
The cautious look in Gu Si’s eyes subsided and he answered casually, “She knows some computing skills. She occasionally takes on some missions to maintain her livelihood.”
When He Yidu heard this, the corner of his lips twitched. Knowing that he couldn’t get anything useful from Gu Si, he didn’t speak any more. Just then, Gu Si’s phone vibrated in his pocket and he took it out.
The message was on a highly secretive messaging app.
“Little Si, congrats on being the top in your province! It’s going to be your birthday in three days time. What’s the plan? Do you want to come and hide at Brother’s place?”
Gu Si replied, “Thank you, Brother Jiangsui. My sister has made plans for me.”
From Beast Camp to Red Scorpion, his sister had made all his plans for him. The only reason he went to Red Scorpion so early was because of Lu Chengzhou’s appearance. Entering Red Flame, however, was a total accident.
Jiangsui: [Alright, stay safe.]
Jiangsui: [Let me ask you something.]
Jiangsui: [Who is your sis dating? I’m so curious! She said that she would take him to have a meal with us!]
He triple-texted and left the most important message at the end.
Gu Si raised his eyebrows. Why was everyone such a busybody? He typed slowly, [Brother Jiangsui, you must have known that my sister made plans for me, right? You’re just here for gossip.]
Jiangsui: [...Yeah.]
Gu Si shared the information with him readily. [Lu Chengzhou.]
On the other end, Jiangsui, who was lying on the sofa, immediately sat up when he saw the name.
The man from Red Scorpion?
He paused for a while and asked Gu Si. [Is it the Lu Chengzhou that I know?]
[Yeah.]
Jiangsui’s mouth twitched. He had asked an obvious question. Who else could it be other than him?
Jiangsu: [Alright, I’m no longer worried about you.]
Gu Si chatted with him for a while more before he put his phone away and continued reading.
Now that he had graduated from Red Flame, it was hard for even Huo Zhi to find him. The rule was that he had to return when he turned eight, but he just had to break this rule.
It wasn’t the first time for him and his sister had broken rules before.
...
At Seal Palace.
Lu Chengzhou came back after an hour. Gu Mang was stretched out on the sofa and her wrists were on the table just as they had been when Lu Chengzhou left.
She looked at Lu Yi and Lu San who were holding bags of food. She saw the familiar packaging in the shopping bags. They were all brands she liked.
“Miss Gu.” Lu Yi and Lu San greeted Gu Mang. They did not dare to lift their heads. The bite marks on their Master’s neck were so obvious that they knew what had happened at first glance. They put down their things and said respectfully, “Young Master Lu, we shall take our leave first.”
Lu Chengzhou acknowledged with a hum.
The door of the apartment closed as they left, leaving Gu Mang and Lu Chengzhou alone.
Lu Chengzhou brought the bag with desserts and macarons over to her. He sat beside her and removed a tube of medicine from the pocket of his jacket.
Gu Mang was silent.
