When Gu Mang came out of the bathroom drying her hair with a towel, Lu Chengzhou was no longer in the room, however there was a cup of honey water on the table. She slowly walked over and touched the cup, which was still warm. She cocked an eyebrow and she lifted it to take a sip. Her phone, which was placed on the table, vibrated suddenly. She wrapped the towel around her head, picked up her phone, then turned around and lazily leaned against the table as she read her brother’s message.
[Sis, did you forget about your smart and handsome baby brother again?] 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
She scrolled through the chat history, which was a series of messages from Gu Si, to which she did not reply at all. She did not feel remorseful as she replied with a question mark.
Meanwhile, Gu Si, who was nestled in a chair in the technical team’s office at Red Flame with his little legs stacked on the table, felt quite dispirited as he stared at the cold, perfunctory symbol on the screen. He felt that his status was dropping further and further by the day. He would soon fall out of favor. With a miserable expression, he sighed and started tapping on his phone. [Sis, if you don’t deliver the medicine to your baby brother, he’ll really die at the age of eight.]
It was only then that she realized that she had forgotten to ask Lu Chengzhou to hand the medicine over to him. She slowly typed, [I forgot. You’ll receive it within two days.]
Upon receiving confirmation that his sister had indeed forgotten about him, Gu Si pouted and sucked in a deep breath, mumbling to himself, "My sister loves me very much! I’m her precious baby brother! I didn’t fall out of favor! I hold a lot of weight in her heart!"
When his mood improved after repeating those lines several times, he continued typing, [Sis, has your military training ended?]
Gu Mang placed the empty cup on the table after finishing the honey water and replied, [Yes. How is it at Red Flame?]
My sister is showing concern! She still cares about me! Gu Si became revitalized when he saw her question. Sitting straight up, he excitedly typed, [Not bad. Brother Missing Gateway and Brother Xing Zhi taught me a lot of things and the food here is delicious! They even roasted an entire lamb for me!]
Mirth flashed across his sister’s eyes when she saw his reply. [Red Flame’s technical team is quite good. Learn well from them.]
[I got it, Sis.] Then, upon remembering something, he sent another message to her. [By the way, I heard from Lu Jiu and Lu Shi that Huo Zhi is on Mingyu Island. He’s probably here to look for me.]
The smile in her eyes was gone in a flash, replaced by a bone-chilling expression. [Just stay at Red Flame.]
