Chapter 347: Look for Lu Family
Joston gave it a thought and said, “I remembered Country Hua’s Lu family. That old matriarch’s illness was also treated by a doctor who was skilled in acupuncture. The doctor is on close terms with Lu Chengzhou.”
“You’re trying to say that we should invite that traditional Chinese medicine practitioner?” Noelle stared at him blankly.
Joston nodded. “There’s no other choice.”
“However…” Noelle frowned. “That traditional Chinese medicine practitioner seems to be the national top scorer on Country Hua’s joint exam. Lu Chengzhou is very protective of her and she is also protected by the country.”
It was no easy feat for her to come to Country K.
Joston knocked on the table. “So you need to make a trip to the Lu family personally to look for Lu Chengzhou. Regardless of their conditions, you must get the girl to come to the presidential palace to treat your mother.”
Noelle pursed her lips and kept silent for a few seconds before agreeing. “Sure, I’ll go there now. Mama’s illness cannot afford to wait anymore.”
Joston replied, “Good.”

Lin Shuang accompanied Gu Mang to the most famous dessert store. They sat by the window and ordered milk tea as well as other food. Gu Mang propped up her face in her hands as she ate lazily like her usual self.
Lin Shuang ordered a dessert with less calories as she was afraid of gaining weight. Taking a bite, she asked, “What do you plan to do? Are you really not treating her?”
Gu Mang lowered her eyelids, her long lashes casting a faint shadow. Licking her lips, she said, “I’m not interested.”
“What’s next? Returning to Ming City?”
Lin Shuang’s gaze fell on Gu Mang’s facial features. The contours of her face were beautiful and shrouded in a sense of incomprehensible mystery.
Gu Mang ate the chocolate on the cake as she frowned subconsciously. It tasted very different from what she usually ate.
She swallowed the chocolate before speaking slowly,” I’m not returning first. There’s still another job. You’ll return to the Shadow League.”
Lin Shuang raised her eyebrow. “Sure, I’ll return tomorrow.”
When they were more or less done, Gu Mang gave Lu Qi a call to get him to fetch them. She then sat in the dessert shop and played games with Lin Shuang. Thirty minutes later, Lu Qi and Peng Yan arrived. They opened the door of the desert shop and walked towards them. It was just as they finished their games.
“Ms. Gu, Ms. Lin.” Lu Qi bowed respectfully.
Gu Mang acknowledged him and stood up while she put her phone and hands in her pocket. Lin Shuang followed beside her.
When they arrived at the villa, Gu Mang headed upstairs right away.
After showering, she dried her hair with the towel as she walked lazily to the desk, turned on the computer, and pressed a few buttons. Placing the towel on her head, she poured herself a glass of water and took a sip before sitting down on the chair. Placing the glass beside her hand, she put on the ear phones.
Moments later, a voice was heard. “Big Boss, why did you think about calling me at this time?”
Gu Mang placed her long legs on the desk as she leaned back leisurely, the chair still stable.
She spoke lazily, “You can start arranging the training.”
The other party could not believe it. After a minute of silence, the person said, “Big Boss, didn’t you say that you wanted to take the university entrance exams? Don’t you need to review?”
Gu Mang answered softly, “I’m already admitted.”
The other party kept quiet but the silence this time around was shorter. “Big Boss, there’s really no need to lie to me. If you have matters to take care of and cannot join training, you can tell me directly. There is no need for you to give me reasons that make me doubt my life.”
Perfect on the national joint exam previously and now early admission…
Gu Mang was expressionless. “Are you going to arrange the training or not?”
Though the other party could not see her face, he could sense the chilliness in her voice and hurriedly responded, “Yes, yes, I’ll go arrange it.”
