Chapter 319: They Despise Being Boys Who Help to Carry Bags
Gu Mang was indifferent. Holding her phone, she sent a message to Lu Chengzhou. She sounded insipid. “Tell Yun Ling to inform Joston that I will be heading to the presidential palace tomorrow.”
Joston was the President of Country K. He had looked for her for close to six months.
“Okay.” Lin Shuang tousled her hair. At the thought of something, she spoke again. “The people downstairs will definitely be following you tomorrow. You should think of how to deal with them.”
Gu Mang hummed in acknowledgment before entering the room behind her while carrying her bag on one shoulder.
…
At the lobby downstairs.
One of the subordinates was holding digital equipment that the Red Scorpion had specially provided. After filtering through recent news related to Country K, he believed that it was of no use anymore. Hence, he placed it on the coffee table.
Thereafter, he took a glance at the third floor. “Brother Qi, is our mission this time round just to protect Ms. Gu?”
Was this big group of men really instructed to protect two women? What could two women possibly do? At most they would just be sightseeing and shopping. Could they possibly be asked to help them carry their bags? His face turned grim at the thought of it.
Another subordinate had checked through all the CCTV cameras near the villa. He walked over and said as softly as possible, “I really don’t know what Young Master Lu is thinking. He actually asked us to escort them all the way here.”
This place was familiar territory to them.
Lu Qi was rather frustrated too. “Consider it lucky that we have missions to do. At least our Boss hasn’t forgotten about us.”
Everyone became silent.
“Brother Qi, do you know when Young Master Lu will transfer us back? I’m so f*cking bored!” the subordinate said, sounding annoyed.
Besides gathering some rather useless information about Country K they really had nothing to do.
Lu Qi sighed. “It’s not just you. I feel the same way.”
“I really don’t want to be carrying bags for women.” The subordinate looked troubled. “How about we spend some money and hire two people to accompany Ms. Gu when she shops?”
Lu Qi had thought about this as well. However, their Boss had instructed them personally. He did not dare s.h.i.+rk this responsibility.
Bottling up his anger, he said in an unpleasant tone, “Stop bullsh*tting. Go and check if the meals are ready. If they are, ask Ms. Gu and Ms. Lin to come downstairs so they can eat.”
The subordinate did not dare to say anything else and simply headed to the kitchen. After checking, he was informed that the chef was more or less finished preparing the meals. Hence, the subordinate went to the third floor to find Gu Mang and Lin Shuang.
When Gu Mang and Lin Shuang came down, they saw people in the villa having their meals, casually sprawled across the computer and coffee tables.
Lin Shuang was not taken aback by this strange sight. After all, people like them often lived sloppily. When they entered the dining room, they saw the Chinese dishes on the dining table. There were three mains, one soup, and the spread contained both meat and vegetables.
Gu Mang pulled a chair out and sat down. Slowly, she picked up the chopsticks. Lin Shuang also acted without formalities. She even asked one of the subordinates for a can of beer.
While they were eating, Lu Qi approached them and said, “Ms. Lu, I will be bringing some men out to settle some matters. If you encounter any problems, just approach Peng Yan. He’s the one who asked you to come down for your meal just now.”
Gu Mang acknowledged with a hum. Lu Qi left the villa with a few men.
After getting into the car, he turned around and looked at a subordinate. “Is the news true?”
The subordinate nodded as he got in the car as well. “We are the ones gathering the information. There won’t be any fake news. We heard that the Miracle Doctor has arrived in Country K but we haven’t found out why.”
Lu Qi instructed the person in front, “Start driving.” Then, he turned around. “Once we find out why the doctor is here we can go bring the boss to. We should be transferred back for finding the doctor, right?”
They had been looking for the Miracle Doctor for two years to no avail.
Upon hearing this, the subordinate was slightly excited. “Brother Qi, you are right. Where shall we start looking?”
