Chapter 983: Missing

Editor: Atlas Studios

Lu Chengzhou looked at Gu Mang. "Not at all?"

"Well, probably just half of it. My parents wouldn’t do such things, but the purpose of the Biomedical Research Core Office is probably to research genetic diseases. As to what exactly it is about..." Gu Mang paused as she fell deep in thought. "I’ll look into it."

Someone suddenly came to Lu Chengzhou’s mind. His eyes narrowed slightly. "There’s another person who knows about what happened to your parents."

Gu Mang looked up. "Are you talking about Gu Xian?"

Lu Chengzhou nodded.

"He won’t talk, so there’s no need for us to waste our time on him," said Gu Mang with a frown. He didn’t say a word even when he was tortured and kept in captivity for a decade. It’s useless to find him.

Lu Chengzhou’s eyelids were hooded as he said lazily, "I’ll make him talk."

Gu Mang cocked an eyebrow and nodded. "Sure."

Just then, Gu Mang’s phone rang and broke the silence. She took out her phone and realized that it was Huo Zhi calling. Thinking that something probably happened at the Elders’ Association Council House, she answered the call and put it on speaker mode.

"Gu Mang, is Gu Xian with you?" Huo Zhi’s cold voice boomed across the speaker. Although he was asking a question, he sounded like he was certain of it.

Gu Xian is missing? Gu Mang’s countenance darkened and she glanced at Lu Chengzhou.

The latter frowned slightly and shook his head, indicating that he had yet to make a move.

Huo Zhi took Gu Mang’s lack of response as a silent admission. "Why did you capture him?"

"I didn’t," replied Gu Mang coolly as she returned her attention to her phone.

Huo Zhi pursed his lips. "If you release him at once, Old Master Gu will take it as nothing has happened."

From the way he spoke, it was clear that he was certain that Gu Mang had captured Gu Xian.

A hint of irritation flashed in Gu Mang’s eyes. "I told you, I didn’t touch him."

"I’ll send more people to search for him," said Huo Zhi. Gu Xian’s disappearance at this point probably means that he’s dead.
