  It was 12:10 P.M. and Gu Mang appeared at the airport’s entrance on the dot.

  A man in a suit with outstanding charisma approached her. “Are you Ms. Gu Mang?”


  Gu Mang lifted her eyelids and looked at him lazily. “Is anything the matter?”


  The man smiled. “I’m Qin Rui, Qin Fang’s cousin. Brother Cheng instructed me to fetch you since it’s inconvenient to get a cab at night.”


  Gu Mang pursed her lips. Her icy, dark eyes were sparkling as she nodded aloofly and got into the black car……

  Seal Palace.

  The moment Gu Mang opened Lu Chengzhou’s door, he called her on her cellphone.

  “You’re at Seal Palace?” His deep voice was filled with charisma.

  Gu Mang acknowledged him and turned on the lights.

  After putting down her bag she placed her laptop on the coffee table and turned it on.

  Lu Chengzhou said casually, “I have new bathrobes in my room. Go take a shower and sleep early.”


  Gu Mang responded to every sentence of his.

  She seems pretty obedient.

  After hanging up, Gu Mang sat on the carpet in front of the coffee table with her long legs crossed. Her clean and freshly cut fingernails glistened under the light as they moved swiftly over the keyboard. Eventually, the screen showed an intelligence report. Gu Mang rested her arm on her thighs as she cupped her chin while reading it.

  The man in the report always appeared on the news. His eyes were sharp like an eagle’s and his features were authoritative. He was Country K’s leader. It was no wonder that so many people were being mobilized.

  However, there was no news of him suffering from any illnesses so why was he looking for her? She pondered over it for a few seconds but to no avail. With a few taps on the keyboard she navigated to a game’s webpage. Standing up, she went to Lu Chengzhou’s room to look for a new bathrobe before heading to the bathroom.

  After showering she grabbed the towel to dry her hair and left the bathroom. Halfway through drying her hair, she pressed the towel on her head and sat back in front of the laptop.

  Staring at the game’s webpage, she felt disinterest slowly creep up on her. She got up and walked towards a bookshelf standing against the wall closest to her. The bookshelf was filled with original foreign publications and they were all valuable collector’s editions. Mixed in were some novels in foreign languages. Removing an English novel from the shelf, she leaned against the bookshelf and read it without much interest. She read it as easily as though it were a Chinese novel. She read almost ten lines with one glance. Not long after, she flipped the page.

  When fatigue crept up on her, she rubbed her eyes and put the book back before returning to the bedroom to sleep……

  Early next morning, Gu Mang sent a message to Meng Jinyang before arriving at the school. When she got to her seat breakfast was already on her desk. She sat down cross-legged like an extremely arrogant big boss. She took the warmed, sweet milk and put the straw in as she took a sip.

  Lu Yang entered from the back door and stuffed his backpack under the desk as he casually asked, “Sister Mang, what did you do yesterday?”


  Gu Mang cupped her chin and said indolently, “Filmed Sheng Ting’s new MV.”


  Sheng Ting’s new song was widely publicized long ago but because of the issue with the MV’s female lead, the song had not been released till now. There were so many people taking pictures yesterday that something would definitely get leaked to the public. There was no point in hiding it.

  Fatty was also a Sheng Ting fan. Upon hearing this, he turned around and widened his eyes. “Sister Mang, what did you say?”


  The corner of Lu Yang’s lips twitched. “Sister Mang, did you secretly sleep somewhere for the entire day yesterday?”


  Gu Mang cocked her eyebrow and gazed at them with a smile that was not quite a smile. The corner of her eyes emanated wickedness.

  They thought that filming Sheng Ting’s MV was just a dream?
