Chapter 679: Privacy? You Two Are on Good Terms?

It was quite chaotic and noisy at Zhuque Street’s night market since it was a weekend. Tables and chairs were laid out everywhere and the street lights were dim. By the time Lu Chengzhou, Gu Mang, and Lu Yī arrived and got out of the car, it was already almost ten o’clock in the evening.

Gu Mang put her duckbill cap over her head and pressed it down low. Lu Chengzhou walked over to her side and put his arm over her shoulders as he escorted her through the crowd and into the store with Lu Yī following closely behind. When the trio arrived at the private room, Lin Shuang and the rest had just ordered a bunch of barbecue.

Jiangsui, who was already there, felt a bit overwhelmed when he saw Lu Chengzhou entering the room with Gu Mang. He had long wanted to find out who his boss was dating. When he heard that Gu Mang was dating Lu Chengzhou, he could not help but wonder if it was his money or his looks that had attracted her. She had promised to bring her beau along to have a meal with them, but it was only later that he found out through Gu Si that that person was Lu Chengzhou. It had taken him several sleepless nights to accept this earth-shattering news. As it turned out, the man who had successfully seduced his boss was not only so wealthy he was practically rolling in money, he also had drop-dead looks that left countless going crazy over him. Nevertheless, now that Jiangsui had finally met Lu Chengzhou, mixed emotions churned within him as he calmly stood up and greeted Gu Mang. “Sister Mang.”

Nodding, Gu Mang looked at Lu Chengzhou before lifting her chin at Jiangsui. “You should know who he is.”

“Young Master Lu.” Jiangsui’s attitude toward Lu Chengzhou was not as respectful as it was towards Gu Mang.

Lu Chengzhou hummed in acknowledgement, rather curious about how the notorious incompent playboy of the Jiang family came to know his woman. After He Yidu and Qin Fang greeted them, everyone took their seats at the table.

Once again, Lin Shuang had generously brought two bottles of top quality red wine, so the group drank the red wine that was worth millions of dollars out of cheap beer glasses. Gu Mang had her chin propped up on her hand as she received a cup of wine from Lin Shuang. “Why are you here in the capital?”

Lin Shuang’s eyebrows rose as she clinked glasses with Gu Mang. “Didn’t you want me to enter into a marriage alliance with the He Corporation? So here I am.”

Her reply rendered everyone speechless and it earned her a curious look from He Yidu.

Narrowing her eyes, Gu Mang twirled the glass in her hand and asked, “So this is your wedding banquet?”

Qin Fang could no longer hold back his laughter when he heard that question. He chuckled and raised his glass in her direction. “Wow, you hit the nail on the head.”

She wore a smirk on her face as she clinked glasses with him. He Yidu, meanwhile, quietly ate his food.

As Lin Shuang rolled her eyes at Qin Fang, she explained, “The Institute of Computing Technology will be calling for bids next week. I’m here to help the He Corporation get the project contract.”

Gu Mang raised her eyebrows slightly and nodded before sipping a mouthful of wine. Qin Fang, on the other hand, asked Lin Shuang, “You must’ve heard of Xingmu’s Sweeper Monk who’s working for Xing Mu’s IT team, right? I heard that they’re really capable. Not even the top hackers could break into their defense system.”

Jiangsui said nothing as he looked at Gu Mang while Lin Shuang slowly answered, “Yeah, I heard of that person.”

“Are you confident going against them?” Qin Fang leaned forward slightly in Lin Shuang’s direction. “When Xing Mu took part in the previous International Black Hat Briefing, there were no bugs or loopholes found in their system when the hackers tried attacking it. Isn’t that Sweeper Monk really impressive?!”

“No, I have no winning chance at all,” Lin Shuang answered right away, which left Qin Fang speechless and slightly hopeless. Picking up a skewer of grilled chicken wings, she said, “Don’t worry, the Sweeper Monk only works on their defense system and doesn’t take part in projects.”

He Yidu placed a small empty plate in front of her so she could throw the leftover chicken bones away and asked somewhat nonchalantly, “You’re acquainted with the Sweeper Monk?”

While looking at him, Lin Shuang placed her head on her hand as she drummed her fingers against her cheek and flashed him a seductive smile. “Young Master He, you’re intruding on my privacy. I’m just here to help you with your project, yet you’re trying to find out my private life?”

He Yidu returned her smile. “Private life? You two are on good terms?”
