At the observation deck.
As everyone stared at Leng Shi’s body on the platform, a deathly silence filled the room.
Ye Junci was only slightly taken aback, apparently not very affected by what had happened. “Is Leng Shi dead?”
The question was like a bomb thrown to everyone, causing everyone to snap back to reality.
Leng Shi was dead.
Bai Sui shot the Director of Base 102’s Special Agents Team in the head! Despite the watchful eyes of Huo Zhi, the Elder’s Association, the four major families of Jijing Island, and the directors of the top seven research institutes, Bai Sui had made the bold move to kill Leng Shi.
Old Master Leng stood up so suddenly that the chair he had been sitting in tipped over.
Fury rose in his aged eyes as he glared at Old Master Bai. “Are you behind this?! The Bai family is really seeking death!”
Gu Si shook his leg and laughed. “There is no rule that forbids the use of guns on the platform during the assessment. There is also no rule that says killing is not allowed.”
His tone was light yet his words were ear-piercing.
“You!” Livid, the wrinkles on Old Master Leng’s face looked especially sinister.
Leng Xuan was breathing heavily as she tried to control herself. She looked at the Head Elder. “I am still in charge of Base 102. Bai Sui offended someone of a higher status than him. I want him to be executed!”
Bai Zhang frowned. “Elder Leng, we need to be fair. Leng Shi might not have been able to redeem herself due to the fact that she dared to use a gun on Gu Mang even after being fairly defeated.”
“The assessment only involved competition between Gu Mang and Leng Shi. Bai Sui should pay for Leng Shi’s life with his own since he shot her!” Leng Xuan forced out each word through gritted teeth.
Bai Zhang smiled subtly. “So, if Gu Mang was the one who killed Leng Shi, you wouldn’t have pursued the matter?”
“Then, what’s the difference?” Brahma suddenly asked.
It was only that everyone realized that there was an outsider at the venue.
Seeing that a group of people turned to look at him, he smiled in a carefree manner. “If the outcome is death, does the person pulling the trigger really matter?”
What he said was clearly favoring Gu Mang.
“You should stay out of Jijing Island’s affairs,” Leng Xuan said coldly before turning to the Head Elder. “Bai Sui needs to pay for Leng Shi’s death with his own life!”
The Head Elder had expected that there would be a few small mishaps during the assessment today. However, he never expected someone from the Leng family to end up dead.
The Head Elder looked solemn. After thinking for two seconds, he turned towards his trusted aide. “Halt the assessment. Bring Young Lady and Bai Sui over.”
“Yes.” The aide turned around immediately to get the two.
…
At the same time.
Gu Mang looked down and saw Bai Sui pull back his hand.
It was a specially-made gun the size of a lipstick tube.
Bai Sui put the gun into the pocket of her down jacket and whispered next to her ear, “Gu Mang, this is my first time killing someone for you, but it won’t be my last.”
Gu Mang’s eyelashes fluttered subtly.
Bai Sui added, “If you continue pushing me away, I will…”
He suddenly paused.
Gu Mang looked at him expressionlessly. After a few seconds, she raised her eyebrows. “You will what?”
“Don’t you like to play seduction games? I will pick one that you like.” Bai Sui met eyes with her. There was a hint of danger in his voice as he said slowly, “I will grab you and tie you to the bed.”
Gu Mang was speechless. She looked away and continued walking forward without any reaction.
Bai Sui was speechless.
What did her actions mean?
Gu Mang walked to the entrance of the washroom. She looked at the male washroom and then at the female washroom. After hesitating for a moment, she grabbed Bai Sui by the collar and pushed him into the female one.
She closed the door behind her by kicking it.
Bai Sui reeled. When he looked up, he saw Gu Mang turning around to look at him with her bright and beautiful black eyes.
Gu Mang scanned the stalls. After confirming that there was no one else in the washroom, she looked at Bai Sui again.
She walked towards him step by step while staring at his face expressionlessly. Her aura was pretty scary.
Bai Sui retreated subconsciously as he opened his mouth. “You…”
“Lu Chengzhou.” Gu Mang raised her chin and inched closer to him. “Continue acting.”
Hearing this, Bai Sui paused and froze on the spot.
She had recognized him a long time ago.
Lu Chengzhou chuckled and looked at her approaching him. He spread his arms wide. “Are you throwing yourself into my embrace?”
Gu Mang stopped in her tracks.
“When did you recognize me?” Seeing that she stopped, Lu Chengzhou took a few steps towards her.
Gu Mang narrowed her eyes. “Do you think you can fool me with your lousy acting? Wait till you can fool Gu Si first.”
The corners of Lu Chengzhou’s lip curled up. “Your lousy hypnotism didn’t completely erase my memory.”
Gu Mang was speechless.
Lu Chengzhou leaned forward and looked at her in the eye. “Young lady, you are pretty aggressive. Abandoning your partner and…”
He suddenly remembered that she did not have a ‘child’ yet, so he paused.
He continued without batting an eyelid. “You have committed such a grave mistake. How are you still so confident in front of me?”
He had thought that she had dragged him in here so that she could apologize to him about that matter. In the end, she was even more arrogant than him.
Gu Mang remained expressionless. “I am confident in whatever I do.”
Lu Chengzhou was speechless.
“You killed someone. Have you thought of how to deal with the consequences?” Gu Mang did not continue the verbal battle with him and asked directly.
Lu Chengzhou did not say anything. Instead, he pulled her towards the basin and placed her hand under the tap to wash it.
She had touched Leng Shi earlier.
After cleaning Gu Mang’s hands thoroughly, Lu Chengzhou pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket and helped her wipe her hands.
“I just wanted to protect my Young Lady. This is considered self-defense. What consequences are there to deal with?” His tone was languid.
“They will ask you to pay with your life later.” Gu Mang looked at him.
Lu Chengzhou laughed carelessly. “Base 102 will be yours soon. Who will dare lay a finger on me?”
When he said this, Gu Mang finally smiled. She reached out and scratched his chin. “Daddy is here. No one will dare to lay a finger on you.”

The tingling sensation on his chin spread to his heart.
“They probably halted the assessment.” Gu Mang glanced at the door.
Lu Chengzhou nodded. “He Yidu and Qin Fang are just outside. They can come in any time.”
“There is no need for now. I still have some matters to settle.” Gu Mang rejected the offer and gestured with her chin. “Head out first.”
One should not stay here for long.
“Mm.” Lu Chengzhou responded before turning to leave.
Gu Mang looked down as if she was thinking about something.
Before he pulled the door open, Lu Chengzhou asked Gu Mang casually, “Why did you suddenly say that you didn’t want to see blood?”
