Chapter 322: Be Serious, It Isn’t Child’s Play This Time Round
Black Hawk drove towards the main road. He raised his eyebrows and asked again, “Nine Tails, did you meet Arctic Fox? What does he look like?”
Lin Shuang hesitated. “Uh… Just fine.”
Her voice lacked confidence. Gu Mang continued to game with her head hung low. Extremely composed, she played the game smoothly.
Upon hearing this, Black Hawk had the ‘I-knew-it’ expression on his face. “How could he possibly call himself a female high schooler? If he hadn’t gone too far, I would have believed him.”
Lin Shuang kept silent. If Black Hawk was lucky enough to meet Gu Mang once more, he would probably strangle himself to death with a mouse wire when he recalled what had happened today.
…
Half an hour later, the car drove onto the premises of the Presidential Palace. Armed guards were stationed along the road. The buildings of the presidential palace were right in front of them.
The buildings were large. The area they occupied could only be described by the word ‘vast.’ The buildings were the most significant landmarks of Country K. Rumor had it that only the capital and Lu residence were of equal standing with Country K’s presidential palace.
One of the buildings had a traditional design while another had a modern contemporary design.
As they drove further, the number of guards increased. There seemed to be a guard every five steps.
There were no other buildings near the presidential palace. It was very remote. Yet, the security was extremely heavy to the extent where even a fly would not be able to enter. The car drove towards a guarded gate that was a distance away from the presidential palace and came to a stop.
Dressed in politician clothing, a blue-eyed man who seemed to have been waiting there for a long time greeted them.
Lin Shuang glanced at Black Hawk and lowered her voice. “Be serious, it isn’t child’s play this time round.”
Black Hawk nodded. “Don’t worry. I will definitely ensure the safety of Arctic Fox’s friends.”
Gu Mang and Lin Shuang opened the car doors and got out of the car.
The man stood beside the car. Upon seeing them, he nodded at them courteously. There was a smile on his face. “Nice to meet the two of you. I am the President’s Secretary, Sen Te.”
Gu Mang nodded her head slightly. She said in a low and hoarse voice, “Hello.”
Her aura was overpowering. Even the secretary, who had always been careful with each and every of his moves, stole another glance at her.
Lin Shuang chimed in, “Hello.”
Sen Te’s gaze darted between the two of them. He asked, “May I know which of you are the Miracle Doctor?”
Gu Mang’s eyes looked rather cold. “I am.”
Sen Te smiled and glanced at Lin Shuang. “Then, may I know who this lady is?”
“My assistant.” Gu Mang’s answer was short and sweet.
Sen Te nodded. “Okay. Only you two are coming in, am I right?”
Gu Mang acknowledged with a hum.
Sen Te did not pay attention to the person in the car. He said politely, “Please follow me to the presidential car.”
Gu Mang and Lin Shuang followed him towards the guarded gate.
Sen Te reminded them, “This is a procedure we have to go through. Apologies for the inconvenience.”
The two acknowledged Sen Te. They watched as the guards scanned their bodies with body scanners. At last, their gaze landed on Gu Mang’s backpack. Without saying much, Gu Mang unzipped her backpack and showed it to them.
The guards did not find any dangerous objects. Hence, they bowed courteously.
“I apologize if both of you took offense,” said Sen Te. Then, he gestured. “Please follow me.”
After they passed by the guarded gate, they saw a few white cars parked by the road. They were used specially to pick up guests who were visiting the presidential palace. Sen Te opened the car door for them personally.
Gu Mang and Lin Shuang got into the car. They drove all the way towards the presidential palace. On the way they had to go through countless gate checks.
When they arrived at the presidential palace, half an hour had passed. The main building was lavish and glorious. The floor of the entrance alone was made of materials that were worth millions of dollars.
Sen Te got out of the front passenger seat and opened the door for Gu Mang personally. He said respectfully, “Miracle Doctor, please.”
