Chapter 1598: Chapter 1600: Brushing Past Each Other
She rembered slling this scent in Chiang Xiao’s bathroom as well.
It wasn’t strong; in fact, sotis it was so faint it could be overlooked. Yet, when the subtle fragrance wafted past, she realized it might just be the most captivating scent, deeply alluring.
She didn’t know what kind of scent it was and could only make random guesses.
“So, what now?”
Realizing she wasn’t the person he was looking for, Cheng Cheng lost his patience quickly.
“Uh, do you want
to help you find her?” Nian Mutong asked. “What I an is, if I run into a girl with this scent, should I let you know?”
The person Chiang Xiao saved—could it be soone with a unique identity?
She didn’t have many friends here, only Du Jinruo. But lately, Du Jinruo had been so overwheld by Gao Wei and Fong Jianye that she didn’t have ti for her. Shouldn’t she seize every opportunity to make more friends?
If she took the initiative to help him, surely he’d be touched, wouldn’t he?
At the very least, he should give her his contact information, so she’d know how to notify him if she found the person.
Nian Mutong looked at Cheng Cheng.
But to her surprise, Cheng Cheng simply shook his head.
“Thanks, but no need. Farewell.”
With that, he imdiately turned around and left with large strides.
Nian Mutong stood there dumbfounded, staring at his back. It felt as if several cold arrows had pierced into her chest.
Cheng Cheng crossed Liuli Street and headed toward the courtyard.
What he didn’t realize was that, during the ti he had been delayed talking to Nian Mutong, Chiang Xiao had already received a call from her teacher after saying goodbye to Kuang Yunxian. With her backpack in tow, she had gone to the academy.
Cheng Cheng ended up missing her and decided to head to the art school instead.
He had co with the sole purpose of finding Chiang Xiao.
Because he had already figured it out—on the day of his accident, ng Xinian’s team had also been in the area on a mission. So the person who saved him must have been connected to his team.
However, their mission was partially classified. Though the task itself wasn’t confidential, he couldn’t get access to the list of personnel involved.
While Cheng Cheng was contemplating ways to uncover the truth, the deputy officer approached him, saying the Alliance District in G Province wanted to borrow him for two months.
Wasn’t that where ng Xinian’s base was?
It was perfect timing.
Cheng Cheng, who typically refused such assignnts, agreed to it imdiately this ti.
Yet, after spending over half a month in the Alliance District, he found no female team mbers nor the scent etched in his mory. Just as he was losing hope, he heard that ng Xinian had a fiancée—a university student in Capital City. Most importantly, rumors said her combat skills were exceptional.
There were probably very few people in the squad who could defeat her.
Cheng Cheng imdiately zeroed in on her as his target. Taking advantage of his leave, he rushed to the Capital City. But he only had four days off; excluding travel ti, he had barely more than a day to search.
This ti, he was finally close to finding her, only to be delayed by Nian Mutong’s conversation and managed just to miss Chiang Xiao.
Chiang Xiao arrived at the art school, where Liu Guoying waved at her. “Co here, I want to tell you sothing. We’re planning an outing to gather inspiration, to a place called Shitou Town. Do you have any thoughts on it?”
Why the sudden interest in Shitou Town?
Chiang Xiao walked over and noticed a school publication.
“Teacher, is this just another whim of yours?” Chiang Xiao cast him a sidelong glance—such sudden summons were typical when he felt inspired by sothing and decided on impulse.
She knew him too well.
Soone nearby let out a burst of laughter.
