"Teacher, I think that Mr. Hu is inside! He’s very likely here for . I can’t go in now. After you go in, just say I have a bit of a stomachache and will co by later!"
"What? Did you see him?"
"What if I say I sensed it, would you believe ?"
"You girl, don’t joke about such things."
"I’m not joking." Chiang Xiao said, a little worried, "Teacher, when dealing with that man, be a bit careful. If there’s no other way and he asks you sothing, just answer truthfully. Don’t try too hard to cover it up, because I’m afraid he might catch on and it might be bad for you."
"What are you babbling about?" Liu Guoying was annoyed, "Do you think I’m afraid of this?"
"This is the most correct approach. It’s not about fear. Really, do as I say."
"Alright, alright, do you really think I can’t handle this?" Liu Guoying waved his hand.
He truly didn’t believe that just by talking, he would be unable to handle it. It wasn’t as if he had to fight them—if it ca to fighting, she’d definitely be out of her depth.
Chiang Xiao watched him enter the room, still feeling a vague sense of worry.
However, she thought perhaps that person was coming for her, likely to verify sothing?
Mainly, she couldn’t let herself be exposed.
Chiang Xiao imdiately went to the bathroom, slipped into Space, sprayed herself with a homade perfu to mask her scent, and stuffed a packet of dried flowers in her pocket.
Unsure of what the other person wanted, she had to make so effort anyway.
anwhile, Liu Guoying pushed the door open and saw a man sitting on the other side.
Dressed in a suit, his hair slicked back, beard neatly trimd, and wearing silver-rimd glasses, he looked quite distinguished.
Yet, the impression he gave was strange; all the visible features, like the glasses, beard, and slicked hair, stood out. But if you took off the glasses, shaved the beard, and ssed up the hair, you couldn’t envision his appearance at all.
Thus, all these features might actually an no features.
He hadn’t expected Chiang Xiao to be so perceptive, sensing this man’s presence without even seeing him.
Still, he only felt that the man gave an indescribable feeling, not actually dangerous.
That said, Liu Guoying sowhat trusted his student. If Chiang Xiao said he was dangerous, then he surely was.
Not sensing it himself was rely because his ability to perceive danger wasn’t as strong.
"Teacher Liu’s here." The principal glanced at the door, "Hmm, didn’t Chiang Xiao co?"
"Her?" Liu Guoying smiled wryly, "Don’t ntion it, she said she ate sothing bad, a bit of a stomach issue, she’ll co by later."
The principal laughed heartily.
"Young people these days love snacks. They’re much better off than back in our day, when there weren’t any good snacks to eat."
"That’s true." Liu Guoying said, glancing at the man, "Principal, since you have a guest, why did you call Chiang Xiao over? Should I ask her to co later?"
"No, no, Mr. Hu’s here specifically to see Chiang Xiao. Let introduce you: this is Mr. Hu Xiangyong, who’s in the fashion business. He’s involved in various overseas ventures and has broad interests. He’s now back in the country to work on high-end custom clothing, like suits, cheongsams, and in jewelry and jade stone as well."
