Lin Shuang nodded. "The First Lady of Country K is indeed ill. However, your status is special. Iโm afraid this will be a trap."
Last time, someone had been bored enough to set up a trap for Big Boss. The Big Boss fell for it and it was a pretty bad fall.
Gu Mang was indifferent. "Okay."
Lin Shuang cracked her neck. A murderous gaze flashed across her eyes. "Just thinking about the last time you were tricked makes me want to kill someone."
Gu Mangโs gaze was calm. Indifferent, she simply said, "They arenโt as skilled as me now."
It had been three years since that incident. It would not be so easy to catch her now.

The next day, Gu Mang greeted Xi Yan and went to look for the Headmaster so that she could get her leave approved.
"One month?"
Looking prim and proper, Gu Mang was dressed in her school uniform. Her gaze was dark and she was expressionless. "Yes."
The Headmaster looked quite troubled as he fumbled with the leave application form. "Gu Mang, this duration is rather long. Please ask your parents to call me."
Gu Mang knitted her eyebrows slightly. Last time, when the school did not permit her leave, she found a way for the school to expel her. However, expulsion was not a solution this time, not at Ming City High.
Upon seeing Gu Mangโs unhappy face, the Headmaster could not help but feel nervous. He really did not want to offend this Big Boss.
After thinking about it for a few seconds, Gu Mang decided to ditch the crooked ideas. Expressionless, she took out her phone and gave Lu Chengzhou a call.
He picked up quickly. A deep and nice voice could be heard over the phone. "Yes?"
"The Headmaster wants to speak to you." After saying this, Gu Mang passed the phone over.
The Headmaster received the phone with two hands. It took him a moment to realize that that action was inappropriate. He glanced at Gu Mang. She was staring at him with a pair of dark eyes.
He cleared his throat pretentiously and put the phone next to his ear. "Hello, this is the Year Three Headmaster."
Lu Chengzhou was still at No.14 Research Center. Upon receiving the call, he removed his goggles immediately and tossed them on the laboratory table.
Gu Mang ended the call and looked at the Headmaster. "Can you permit my leave now?"
"Yes, yes." Wearing a friendly grin on his face, the Headmaster signed the leave application form quickly.
Once Gu Mang got the form, she walked out of the office and called Lu Chengzhou back.
"Where are you going?" he asked.
With one hand in her pocket, Gu Mang walked casually. "Lin Shuang asked me to help her out with something. Weโll be going to Country K."
Standing at the end of the corridor, Lu Chengzhou opened the window. "When are you leaving?"
"Tonight."
"Do you need me to give you a ride?" Lu Chengzhou whipped out a box of cigarettes, tapped one out, and placed it between his lips. He lit it up with a lighter and inhaled. As he held the cigarette in his hand, he held onto the edge of the window. His gaze landed on the barren land outside the research center.
"No," Gu Mang said languidly and casually. "Lin Shuang will be fetching me."
