Chapter 444: Everyone Seated Here Is Tras.h.!.+
“Have not recovered?” Lu Chengzhou was stunned. When he understood, he sighed. “I meant that the special training in Red Flame is about to end and you would be very busy with the a.s.sessment.”
Gu Mang looked up.
Lu Chengzhou smirked. “Who exactly is the one that is thinking too much?”
The girl did not speak. She looked rather calm.
Lu Chengzhou’s eyes were full of laughter, and he asked her, “So I can think about it when I have recovered? Are you in a hurry?”
Gu Mang put away her phone expressionlessly and wanted to leave. Seeing that he had p.i.s.sed her off, Lu Chengzhou pulled her subconsciously but he had gotten up too quickly and he reopened his old wound. He took a deep breath in pain. Then, he fell back into bed with a dull, suppressed cough.
Gu Mang stopped and she slowly turned around to look at the man. He had his hand on his chest.
Lu Chengzhou suppressed his cough and cleared his throat. “I’m in the wrong. I am the one who thought too much…”
Gu Mang raised her eyebrows rather nonchalantly.
Lu Chengzhou grabbed her hand and pulled her back by the bed to sit down. Seeing that she did not resist, he sighed in relief.
He asked with a low voice, “Do you want to watch a movie?”
Gu Mang was silent for a few seconds. Then, she uttered an ‘oh,’ slowly.
Lu Chengzhou took his tablet and found a movie. He pointed his chin at the screen. “This?”
Gu Mang answered, “Anything is fine.”
It was a really boring movie such that Gu Mang did not even know how she fell asleep.
At Shadow League…
Yun Ling and the others were playing mahjong in Black Eagle’s room.
“Jiu Wan.” Lin Shuang crossed her legs and threw out a tile. She laughed.”I bet that group of is just after the stock market of Country K. They were probably just testing the waters with the online conversation. They wanted to be sure that if they attacked it, no one would have the ability to find out who they are and stop them.”
“Peng.” Black Eagle pushed out the two Jiu Wan tiles in his hand and put down the one he just got. He said angrily, “How obnoxious! They caused such a big hoo ha, who are they trying to humiliate?”
Yun Ling revealed his set of tiles to the others and scoffed. “Humiliate all of you! Everyone seated here is tras.h.!.+ None of you are good at this!”
So many days had pa.s.sed and no one in the Shadow League was able to crack that thing. The corners of Lin Shuang and Black Eagle’s lips twitched.
Another hacker said without much confidence, “Brother Ling, even Arctic Fox said that it is difficult. We are very helpless too.”
Yun Ling rolled his eyes. Big boss has been busy falling in love, how could she have the time to care about this silly stuff? I bet she had to squeeze in time for the online conversation.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Black Eagle adjusted his tiles and did not even bother looking up. “Come in,” He said.
A young man pushed the door open. “Brother Ling, someone has sent us a mission.”
Yun Ling revealed another tile. He asked with disinterest, “From whom?”
“Young Master Lu from the capital city of Country Z,” the man answered respectfully.
When Yun Ling and Lin Shuang heard that, they were shocked. They looked at each other and narrowed their eyes.
Black Eagle held onto a tile and twirled it around on the table. Then, he looked at the man. “What mission has he sent us?”
“He wants Arctic Fox to help them crack the online conversation. We can name whatever price we want,” said the man.
Yun Ling and Lin Shuang were speechless. Their big boss was too good at disguising herself. If only Lu Chengzhou knew that the hacker he was going through such effort to find was right beside him…
When Black Eagle heard that, his eyes lit up. “Can we really name whatever price that we want?”
The man nodded. “That’s what he said when he sent the mission. You can see it yourself.”
Black Eagle laughed in a rather wicked way. He was just about to speak when he suddenly thought of something and the look of excitement on his face subsided.
He bit his lip and said, “It’s just a pity that Arctic Fox is no longer taking any more missions for the year. I thought we would get a large sum of money. We are totally losing billions!”
He continued playing with his tiles with a b.u.mmed expression.
