Chapter 573: I’ll Try My Best Not to Make Others Question Their Existence

Yang Tianming, who was waiting right in front of the stone stele, approached Gu Mang when he saw her. “You’re here.”

She nodded and politely greeted him. “Professor Yang.”

He was very excited for she finally showed up at his request. “Come on, I’ll show you around.”

“Okay. Thanks, professor,” she answered.

…

There were still a lot of people in the medical school’s building at this hour. Many seniors, who were in the middle of doing experiments, settled for takeout as their dinner.

Gu Mang’s name had spread across the entire medical school, so almost all the seniors knew about her. A male student wearing a white lab coat greeted Yang Tianming before he asked while grinning, “Is this our junior Gu Mang?”

The professor bobbed his head while Gu Mang politely greeted them. “Hello, senior.”

The guy then pointed at the lab behind him. “Come visit our lab when you’re free.”

“Sure. Thank you.”

Afterward, Yang Tianming brought her straight to the TCM lab.

…

Meanwhile, at a clubhouse in the capital’s suburbs.

Qin Fang poured himself a cup of tea before taking a seat. “I received news that three of the five Killer Alliance gods are currently in the capital, but I haven’t found out what they’re here for.”

His buddy, He Yidu, wiped his glasses as he said, “I don’t know what’s going on, but there’s some unrest in the capital lately. Not only did people from Jijing Island and Killer Alliance come, Shadow League’s been pretty active in the capital too.” Smiling impishly, he joked, “Three plus one. Are they here to play mahjong with us?”

The private room’s door opened right then, and Lu Chengzhou walked in. Qin Fang and He Yidu immediately got up and greeted him. “Brother Cheng.”

Humming an acknowledgment, Lu Chengzhou sat down and lazily leaned back against the sofa with a leg stacked atop the other on the coffee table. He suddenly paused while unbuttoning his collar. He restrained himself to only unbutton a single button. He then placed a hand on the sofa’s armrest.

Qin Fang and He Yidu sat back down and reported the situation about Killer Alliance to him.

“Who’s here?”

Qin Fang answered, “Flying Serpent and Responsive Dragon. We haven’t found out who the third person is.”

Lu Chengzhou nodded. He then took a cigarette out from a cigarette case, placed it between his lips, and lit it up with a lighter. In a bland voice, he told them, “I’ll be going to Red Scorpion’s reserve base tomorrow and I’ll be there for a month. You guys settle the matter on your own in the meantime.”

Qin Fang’s lips twitched at that. Red Scorpion’s second-in-command is meddling with university military training.

…

Capital University.

Yang Tianming gave Gu Mang a special privilege. She had a free pass to all of the labs. Once he was done showing her around, he took her to his office, where he handed her a book. “This is the latest medical textbook authored by Academician Yu, and it contains hundreds of medical examples. You may take it back to read.”

Upon hearing the name ‘Academician Yu,’ Gu Mang had a rough idea of what was written inside the book. Pretending to peruse the book, she opened its cover and scanned its contents quickly. Most of the cases listed there were very familiar to her. Expressionless, she closed the book and thanked the professor for it.

The way Yang Tianming looked at her could not be any friendlier. “Drop me a message on WeChat if there’s anything you don’t understand.”

“…Okay.”

The professor then said, “Are you free now? I want to treat you to dinner.”

Rolling the book in her hands, she told him lightly, “I have something on. I’ll treat you to a meal some other day instead.”

…

By the time she left the medical school, it was already past eight o’clock in the evening. The lights had dimmed, so not as many people noticed her now. While walking, she received a call and she told the caller, “I’ll be at the north gate in six minutes.”

The caller said something to her and she replied, “One plate of stir-fried noodles. No alcohol, just milk tea.”

After hanging up the call, she proceeded to head toward the school’s north entrance.
