Chapter 846: Qin Fang And He Yidu Board the Plane!

2:00 AM.

At the capital’s airport.

Lu Jiu pushed the male washroom’s door open. He scanned the surroundings and did not spot Gu Si. He checked all the cubicles and still could not find Gu Si.

Knowing Gu Si, it was impossible for this to be an accident. Furthermore, their plan to return to the capital was last-minute.

Unless Gu Si escaped himself.

Lu Jiu was slightly tense. If Gu Si were to go missing under his watch, he would be killed by his master or worse.

“Contact Red Scorpion to look for him,” Lu Jiu instructed the subordinate next to him in a deep voice.

The subordinate answered politely, “Yes.”

Lu Jiu took out his phone and gave Lu Chengzhou a call. The phone rang for a long time and no one picked up. This had never happened before.

Frowning, Lu Jiu contacted Lu Yī instead.

…

On the other side.

Gu Si followed the bald man onto the private jet. Once inside, he saw Huo Zhi sitting in the first row.

“Sir,” the bald man said respectfully. “Young Master Gu Si is here.”

Huo Zhi looked up and glanced at Gu Si.

He looked tan and tall. He was wearing his black baseball cap backwards and his aura was similar to Gu Mang’s.

Arrogant and unbridled.

Gu Si scanned the cabin. There were only four seats and his sister was not here.

The corners of his lips grew stiff. Looking at Huo Zhi with a sharp gaze with his youthful eyes, he asked coldly, “Where is my sister?”

Gu Si looked at Huo Zhi expressionlessly. He used to be scared of him. Now, he was no longer afraid.

After training with Red Flame for half a year, he had become fearless.

Gu Si did not receive a reply. He could not be bothered to waste his time on Huo Zhi, so he took out his phone to contact Gu Mang.

“Your sister is in the lounge,” Huo Zhi said.

Gu Si paused. Then, he slipped his phone back into pocket expressionlessly before heading straight to the lounge with his bag.

Upon opening the door, he saw Gu Mang leaning against the backrest. Finally, all of his tense nerves finally relaxed.

Gu Mang’s arm was resting on top of her eyes. She seemed to be asleep.

“Scram!” Gu Mang blurted out coldly. She did not seem to be in a good mood as she exuded a sense of intense hostility.

When Huo Zhi heard her voice from outside the lounge, he tightened his grip around the cup of coffee he was holding.

“Sis, it’s me,” Gu Si said as he closed the door.

Finally, he could have some privacy with his sister.

Gu Mang shifted her arm and opened her eyes. Her eyes were bloodshot.

Seeing how ragged his sister looked, Gu Si knew that she had not slept a wink since last night.

Furthermore, if his sister was here, this meant that she might have fallen out with Lu Chengzhou.

Gu Mang’s gaze hovered over Gu Si for a few seconds before resting her arm on her eyes again. Gu Si walked over and glanced at the exquisite dishes on the coffee table that had not been touched.

He put his bag down, bent down beside the sofa and asked while looking up, “Sis, why haven’t you eaten?”

Gu Mang answered in a slightly low and hoarse voice, “If you are hungry, you can have it.”

“I ate before I came.” Gu Si propped his chin with his hands and said, “Sis, you should eat something.”

Gu Mang did not move and continued leaning against the backrest. It was obvious that she did not want to cooperate with him.

Her infamous temper was back.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Si pulled his sister’s bag over and unzipped it. There were chocolate and candies inside.

He took out a piece of chocolate, removed the wrapper, and held it in front of Gu Mang. “Sis, have some chocolate. Lu Chengzhou bought it for you.”

At the mention of his name, Gu Mang’s fingers moved slightly.

After a while, she opened her mouth.

Gu Si peeled another one for her. “Sis, why are we suddenly going back to Jijing Island?”

When he received his sister’s message saying that they were going back to Jijing Island, he had been caught off guard. However, he supported whatever his sister did. Regardless of how confused he was by his sister’s decision, he ditched Lu Jiu and came to meet Gu Mang immediately.

The lounge was extremely quiet.

After his sister finished eating the chocolate, he passed her another one. Gu Mang opened her mouth cooperatively and let him feed her.

Gu Si threw the aluminium wrappers into the wastebasket before standing up to fetch a cup of water. “Sis, it’s fine that you don’t want to eat. But you should drink some water.”

Gu Mang’s lips were slightly pursed. After a few seconds, she finally sat up and took the cup of water from him.

She finished half the cup of water. Looking down, she said in a low voice, “Granny Lu passed away.”

Gu Si knew about her passing as well. The Lu family even sent out an arrest warrant for her. The Gu family and the Elders’ Association were behind this.

Lu Chengzhou did not blame his sister and was in search of the true culprit.

Looking slightly pale, Gu Si said, “Sis, don’t blame yourself. You are you. The Gu family is the Gu family…”

Gu Mang looked at the water in the cup and suppressed her voice. “Lu Chengzhou found out that you and I need the medicine from Jijing Island.”

Gu Si was not surprised to learn this. When his sister called him to ask if Lu Chengzhou had asked him to do a blood test, he put two and two together.

However, he was quite curious about how Lu Chengzhou had managed to find out about it.

Did he see the medicine his sister gave him?

How could they possibly identify the medicine? Even on Jijing Island, only a few people from the old and well-known clans knew anything about it.

Information regarding the medicine was considered top level classified information in Jijing Island. There was no way Red Flame could have obtained this information.

“The research project that the Blood Institute is doing now is related to us,” Gu Mang said. “They paid Shadow League tens of billions to find the Miracle Doctor because of this research project.”

“Um…” Gu Si was dazed. After he regained his senses, he scratched his head and looked at her. “Is it because they want you to research the antidote?”

Gu Mang remained silent, but Gu Si knew that it was an affirmative answer.

Gu Si could not help but think of the “10,000 ways to make a killing” group chat that they had created.

He was suddenly hit by a pang of guilt.

He resolved to change the name later. It was unfair to Lu Chengzhou. He was trying to research the antidote for his sister and yet they were thinking of murdering him for money…

No wonder they were in such a hurry. It was all for his sister.

Gu Si sighed internally.

Even if Lu Chengzhou managed to find the Miracle Doctor, it would be useless. The Miracle Doctor was his sister. Even she had yet to come up with an antidote.

This thing had controlled several generations of people on Jijing Island.

Furthermore, the standards of biological medical research lab in Jijing Island were much ahead of the international standards.

If his sister really could come up with an antidote in a few years’ time, the countless powerful international influences would not be afraid of Jijing Island.

So, if his sister had not come up with anything yet, what could Lu Chengzhou’s Blood Institute possibly have?

However, Lu Chengzhou did not ask him nor his sister to join the blood test project…

Gu Si asked, “Sis, where does Lu Chengzhou get the blood samples to conduct experiments on?”

Gu Mang rubbed against the cup with her fingers. Her voice became even deeper. “Himself.”

“Huh?! His own?!” Gu Si’s eyes widened. He opened his mouth and asked in disbelief, “Lu Chengzhou’s own blood?”

Gu Mang responded with a hum.

“But why would he…” Gu Si frowned. “He is not from Jijing Island…”

“The head of the Ye family is his mother.”

“What the f*ck!” Gu Si cursed instinctively, his expression one of shock.

He had never expected Lu Chengzhou to be like him and his sister…

No wonder he could identify the problems with his and his sister’s bodies upon seeing the medicine.

Gu Si finally wrapped his head around everything. He looked at Gu Mang. “Sis, are you going back to Jijing Island because of him?”

“He is prepared to act against the Elders’ Association and the Gu family. He has made a deal with Madam Ye.” Gu Mang paused and added, “If anything happens to him, give me his medicine.”

Gu Si blinked as he thought of Red Flame’s latest operations. He knew about Red Flame taking over Jijing Island’s black market. He had even given Lu Jiu ideas.

He had thought that Lu Chengzhou only wanted to take over Jijing Island’s black market because Huo Zhi had brought an entire gang of people to stir trouble in Red Flame’s territory.

So he did all this because of his sister…

He had even planned a way out for his sister…

Gu Si pursed his lips. Judging by his sister’s temper, she would surely not let him do things to this extent.

Furthermore…

His sister had always been indifferent and did not take her life seriously.

Yu Zhongjing had poured a huge sum of money into research because of him…

If it weren’t for him, there would not even be a research project.

Gu Si finally understood why his sister wanted to go back to Jijing Island. Lu Chengzhou was giving up his own blood and treasure to find a solution to their problem and there were no breakthroughs from the research institute.

“But Sis…” Gu Si looked up. “He… is letting you go back just like that? Even if we go back… What if he finds us again?”

Gu Si did not refer to Lu Chengzhou by his name.

“I hypnotized him.” Gu Mang took another piece of chocolate, removed its wrapper, and said calmly, “To make him forget about me.”

Gu Si could not help but frown. He could tell that his sister treated Lu Chengzhou differently.

In order to not worry his sister, Lu Chengzhou did not tell her about the Blood Institute’s project and the reason behind his search for the Miracle Doctor. He had planned to handle everything himself from start to finish.

Now that his sister had found out, she did not want Lu Chengzhou to sacrifice so much for her so his sister erased Lu Chengzhou’s memory personally…

Gu Si’s gaze landed on Gu Mang’s deathly still face. “Sis…”

Just then, there was a loud commotion from the front of the cabin.

Gu Si paused and glanced at the door. He stood up quickly. “Sis, I’ll go out and take a look.”

…

In the front cabin.

Qin Fang and He Yidu brought people up to the plane. The cabin was incredibly cramped with how many people were inside.

“Huo Zhi, hand over Gu Si.” With his hands on his waist, Qin Fang sounded rather annoyed.

Too many things had happened today. Now, Huo Zhi was even eyeing Gu Si. His blood boiled.

Huo Zhi sat down calmly. “Gu Si belongs to Jijing Island. Why are you asking me for him?”

He Yidu removed his gold-rimmed spectacles and cleaned his lens. “Stop spouting nonsense. Lu Jiu, let’s go inside to search.”

In the capital, they had the final say.

Lu Jiu nodded. “Yes.”

The bald man looked at Huo Zhi nervously. He was unwavering. “Sir…”

Huo Zhi took a sip of coffee. Just as Lu Jiu started to lead a group of men towards the lounge, the door opened from the inside.

Gu Si was standing in the doorway.

Seeing him, Lu Jiu heaved a heavy sigh of relief. “Young Master Gu, are you okay?”

“I’m fine.” Gu Si had no expression on his face. “All of you can go back first. I’m going back to Jijing Island. I want to thank Red Flame for taking care of me all this while.”

What he said stunned Lu Jiu. Just as he was about to speak, he spotted a figure on the sofa behind Gu Si.

He glanced at the figure subconsciously.

Upon seeing Gu Mang’s face, he was as shocked as when he had heard what Gu Si just said.

Lu Jiu muttered, “Ms. Gu?”

Hearing this, Qin Fang and He Yidu froze.

They looked at each other.

Wasn’t Gu Mang with Brother Cheng?

Wasn’t she at the Capital University apartment? Why would she be on Huo Zhi’s private jet?

Both of them immediately rushed across the cabin. They pushed open the door to see for themselves.

Gu Mang was sitting on the sofa.

“Sister-in-law, why are you here?” Qin Fang was slightly confused. “Where is Brother Cheng?”
