Chapter 350 Aunt Xiang
When Cheng Hu and others were discussing the matchmaking for Xiaoniu and Feng Jun, Ding Ning had returned to Ninghai University’s laboratory to continue his research ceaselessly.
Probably, anyone who was immersed in experimenting didn’t want to be disturbed. It had been almost seven days after Ding Ning left, but no one had noticed that. This saved him much energy to explain it.
Not like before, Luoxue didn’t feel so bored and stare blankly any longer. Through this experience, she became so eager to get strong. Apart from preparing three meals a day for Ding Ning, she would use the rest of her time to strive to practice.
The cruel reality was that after she left the sea which was rich in water elements, her practicing speed plummeted.
After practicing in the sea for more than half a day, she reached the late stage of the Human Martial Arts Realm, but after she returned for a day, her cultivation grew little and almost stopped, making her quite distressed.
Fortunately, after getting the red coral’s fusion agent molecule through research, Ding Ning stretched, noticed the state of Luoxue at the moment, and patted his head in annoyance.
Hastily, he took out more than 100 low grade Spiritual Crystals of Water and handed them to her. “Hold these things in your hands to practice.”
“What are they? They are so beautiful.” Luoxue blinked her big eyes and played with the Spiritual Crystals of Water joyfully.
“Spiritual Crystals of Water. They have the spiritual power of the water system, and you can use them to practice in the future. After using them up, please tell me, and I will give new ones.”
Ding Ning pinched Luoxue’s extremely tender face and spoke in a pampering manner.
“Thank you, brother!”
Luoxue’s happy eyes narrowed into a crescent shape. Before the abundant and pure Spiritual Energy of Water was put into practice, the Spiritual Energy of Water inside her had begun to desire it, and the entire laboratory also seemed to be filled with water, making them feel refreshed and extremely comfortable.
Ding Ning felt refreshed, but he didn’t expect such a wonderful effect of the Spiritual Crystals of Water. They could increase the humidity of the air, remove the impurities in the air, and make people refreshed. His brain seemed to become much clearer.
Just when Ding Ning believed that his experiences in the past few days were unknown to others, he did not know that the woman from Yan Jing had been waiting for a long time.
The day after Ding Ning left his laboratory for the deserted island, the woman from Yan Jing brought a male a.s.sistant and a female a.s.sistant to Ninghai.
After checking into Ninghai International Hotel, the woman did not contact Ding Qianlie. Instead, she asked her male a.s.sistant to rent a low-key Toyota Camry from a leasing company and went straight to Biyun Nunnery in the eastern suburbs.
When she left Ninghai International Hotel, a humble black Buick pulled out of the underground garage, far behind her Toyota.
In the hotel room, a very inconspicuous high-power telescope appeared at the window sill blocked by the curtain, and the expressionless female a.s.sistant in her thirties whispered in the headset, “Chairman, as you estimated, someone is following you. It is a black Buick Regal, and its license plate number is Ning A08795.”
“OK, I got it.”
From the headset came the unwavering voice of the Yan Jing woman.
“First Miss, do you want me to get rid of them? Or…”
The driver Su Kang was about 50 to 60 years old with an honest face.
He was the woman’s a.s.sistant, driver and bodyguard, and also an old servant who had watched her grow up since she was young. When she heard the sound in her headset, her eyes glinted with some coldness. Although she didn’t finish her words, the cold killing intention in them made people shudder.
“No, Uncle Kang, you just drive normally.”
With a gorgeous face free from face-powder, the woman didn’t show the panic that someone was following her and spoke calmly.
“Yes, First Miss!”
Su Kang put away the bone-breaking killing intention, became simple and honest again, and did his best to drive.
An hour later, the car went through the urban area of Ninghai and entered the East Suburban Development District, where not only pedestrians but also vehicles coming and going became few.
When they drove past a traffic light intersection and the green light countdown was left with the last three seconds, the woman suddenly said, “Uncle Kang, speed up!”
Su Kang, who had begun to slow down, pressed the accelerator as if it was his conditioned reflex as he heard the words, and suddenly sped up and rushed past when the yellow light was flashing.
Behind it, the Buick car’s driver, who thought the car in front slowed down to stop, had no time to think and suddenly pressed the accelerator to keep up. It was nothing to run a red light, and he could not lose that woman.
“Beep, beep, beep!”
“Creak!”
A concrete mixer truck came quickly from the side, and a series of rapid horn buzzing sounded. The two men in the Buick car were astonished, turned the steering wheel hurriedly, and twisted into an S-shaped line at the intersection, wishing to avoid being hit by the concrete mixer truck.
Pitifully, it was too late. The concrete mixer truck was pa.s.sing the green light at its normal speed of more than 60km per hour with a heavy load, and the driver had no time to stop his truck.
“Boom!”
The tires of the mixer truck made a black emergency brake line on the ground, but it still b.u.mped heavily into the Buick car and sent it flying more than ten meters and then falling onto the ground. The Buick car was deformed and unrecognizable, and the two men in the car were so dead.
When seeing the scene from the rearview mirror, Su Kang looked calm but complimented her silently, “First Miss’s nickname of the first talented lady in Yan Jing is so real, and her mental arithmetic ability that controls results is so scary.”
He knew that the concrete mixer truck was not arranged by his First Miss beforehand. Just as the car slowed down, she saw the concrete mixer truck that was still far away by using the convenience of sight at the intersection and asked him to suddenly accelerate at the critical moment, which caused the absolutely unexpected traffic accident and got rid of the informers of the person who followed her.
“Alas, I really don’t know why they wanted to be so quick. Better late than never. Was it so hard to obey the traffic rules?”
The woman’s bright and clean face showed some regret, but she didn’t have the slightest sympathy or compa.s.sion. With more than 20 years of miserable life, she had long known that her enemy was fierce and her kindness and softness would only bring greater disasters to those whom she cared about.
Before this, she had two options in mind. One was to get rid of the car when it stopped and waited for the green lights; the other was to lead the car into a deadly traffic accident as it followed her close behind.
Pitifully, the Buick’s driver stupidly chose the second suicide accident. Naturally, the woman would not feel sympathetic for such enemies and could only express her deep regret. After all, she had given them the chance to survive, but they didn’t cherish it.
Once known as the first beauty with wisdom and a good look in Yan Jing, the woman finally showed her unstoppable and unmatched excellence again after hiding her capabilities and keeping a low profile for more than 20 years.
This told the world not to forget that she was by no means a worthless vase only with the t.i.tle of “beautiful as an immortal”, for beneath the peerless appearance was the “beautiful name” of “wise as a demon”, which, however, had been forgotten by numerous people.
The Toyota Camry continued driving forward without pausing. After only stopping for less than a minute at a visual corner where no one could see it, it continued moving toward Biyun Nunnery.
Five minutes later, an Audi A8 rushed close behind the Toyota Camry to the east. After the Audi pa.s.sed, an ordinary Pa.s.sat came out of a turning, moving to the opposite direction.
The Yan Jing woman, who was sitting in the Pa.s.sat at the moment, stared out of the window without the slightest focus in her eyes, where there were irremovable thoughts and expectations.
20 minutes later, the Audi A8 stopped at the gate of Biyun Nunnery. In the distance, Su Kang wearing white gloves stepped out of the car, opened its rear door respectfully, and put his hand close over her head to prevent it from hitting the roof. Although it was hard to see her face clearly, it was easy to see that she was dressed the same as the Yan Jing woman.
The middle-aged man on the co-pilot seat of the Audi car took out his mobile phone, dialed a number, and reported respectfully, “Master, the previous car crash was an accident. Now she has entered Biyun Nunnery.”
“Zhao Qun, follow her closely. Whoever she meets and whatever she does, report all the details to me.”
A majestic and calm voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Yes, master, but we can’t enter the Biyun Nunnery.”
Zhao Qun looked at Su Kang who was standing at the door like a door G.o.d, and, being a little embarra.s.sed, spoke.
“It doesn’t matter. Send people to keep an eye on Biyun Nunnery 24 hours a day, and see who will come out after she leaves. Have a full investigation of her and her ancestors.”
The majestic voice growled with a trace of desperate anger.
“I see, master!”
Zhao Qun was shocked. For so many years, his master was calm to whatever he encountered, and only the woman could easily touch the most sensitive part of his heart and make him lose his temper.
A smart escape became meaningless after Ding Ning went to the deserted island.
The Yan Jing woman used a trick, hid in a rented house near Ninghai University, and remained indoors, anxiously waiting for Ding Ning to return. When eating, she even ordered take out.
This was the same as her double staying at Yan Jing International Hotel, but the only difference was that the double would show her side at the hotel window each day, making Zhao Qun who closely watched her daily confused.
“What is this girl playing with? Hurriedly, she rushed to Ninghai to prepare birthday gifts for the master of the Bai Family, but why did she stay indoors all day long when she arrived?”
After getting the information, the master living far in Yan Jing was also confused. He didn’t know what she was doing and could only tell Zhao Qun to keep a close eye.
“Knock! Knock! Knock!”
The Yanjing woman was bored, watching a non-nutritive TV series. She didn’t know when Ding Ning would return, but her door was knocked suddenly.
The woman felt nervous and saw through the peephole prudently. When she saw a delivery boy, she then opened the door.
Just as she took the food, her neighbor’s door suddenly opened and a beautiful woman walked out. Taking a casual glance, she was stunned instantly, shouting in surprise, “Aunt Xiang, why are you here?”
“Muqing, I came to visit a friend in Ninghai, but why are you here?”
The woman known as Aunt Xiang gave a wry smile. She had been quite careful, but she was surprised that she was still recognized by an acquaintance. What a coincidence!
“I am studying at Ninghai University. I usually live here. What a coincidence! Aunt Xiang, why did you come to Ninghai? Why not tell me? I would have been your tour guide and traveled with you.”
Shen Muqing gave an uncovered joyful smile. The woman in front of her had been the only one she admired most since she was young.
After she took out her purse, paid the delivery boy money, and let him leave, Aunt Xiang then looked around vigilantly, pushed Shen Muqing into the room, and closed the door. “Muqing, how is your health?”
“Aunt Xiang, I’m much better now, and I can even jog.”
Shen Muqing’s face was filled with a cheerful smile.
“Oh, really?”
Aunt Xiang looked at her with a little surprise because she knew the seriousness of the ill-fated girl’s disease.
“Of course, it is true. I met a miracle-working doctor, and he was amazing.”
Against her usual ladylike style, Shen Muqing held Aunt Xiang’s arm and talked ceaselessly, explaining everything that happened after she met Ding Ning. Of course, she omitted those intimate moments. That was the biggest secret buried deep in her heart. She didn’t even mention Ding Ning’s name, for it would pain her heart faintly.
