Campus Ace Girl

Chapter 1031 - 1030: He’s in the Hospital, Right Around Us

Jingyao glared at her. "You’re just a kid, what do you know!"With that, he happily wheeled Lin Hua to a ward on the top floor. Because of Lin Hua’s special status, the ward was completely sealed off. Jingyao even specially transferred a team over, including Chen Ming, all dedicated to Lin Hua’s safety.

Lin Hua lay down and said uneasily, "I’m not some important person. There’s no need for all this fuss."

Jingyao picked up a bowl of century egg and lean pork congee and started feeding her. He didn’t say anything, just shot a glance at Gu Anxi.

The little creamer was cursing MMP in her heart, quickly stuffed down a few pieces of rice noodle roll, then said to Lin Hua, "How are you not an important person?"

The old bro chimed in, satisfied, "You are. It’s not like before anymore. Now that you’re pregnant, you’re more precious than anyone."

Lin Hua smiled faintly. "I get it now. One look from you and Anxi immediately knows what to say."

Old Wang Bro laughed along. "You actually listen to her. Of course she had to call in reinforcements."

Lin Hua didn’t say anything more. She ate half a bowl of congee and refused to eat any more. Someone with Jingyao’s status actually didn’t mind and finished the rest himself. No sooner had he finished than Secretary-General Wang rushed over, with Chen Ming in tow.

The two of them knew Lin Hua well, and after coming in they asked after her with concern. After Jingyao briefly explained, Wang Jingchuan and Chen Ming both let out a sigh of relief. "As long as you’re okay."

Jingyao nodded, then threw a look at Chen Ming.

Chen Ming gave a tiny nod, which Lin Hua caught. "Jingyao, what are you and Chen Ming talking about?"

Old Wang Bro laughed heartily. "Nothing, just work stuff."

His trusted aide Wang Jingchuan followed with a smile. "Yeah, work stuff."

Lin Hua said nothing more and slowly lay back. She still felt a bit unwell, and she’d been up early and was a little sleepy.

Jingyao stayed with her for a while longer. Once she fell asleep, he looked at Gu Anxi, signaling her to stay with Lin Hua, then took Chen Ming and Wang Jingchuan to the small reception room next door. As soon as he went in, he lit a cigarette. "Chen Ming, how’s it going with the Feng family? Have you found him?"

Chen Ming’s expression turned somewhat serious. "We had his trail, but we slipped up for a second and he got away."

Old Wang Bro was so mad he wanted to start cursing, while Chen Ming shrank his neck and just stood there.

Right then, Gu Anxi pushed the door open and came in, startling them. Jingyao especially visibly relaxed when he saw her. "Didn’t I tell you to watch your sister-in-law? What are you doing here?"

Gu Anxi shut the door and folded her arms across her chest. "Is it Feng Sheng?"

Jingyao stared at her, then coughed lightly. "Of course not, she just got scared by accident."

Gu Anxi let out a cold laugh. "You can fool Sister Lin Hua, but you can’t fool me."

Jingyao was out of moves. He looked at Chen Ming, then at Wang Jingchuan. "See, see? You really can’t let a girl get too smart."

Chen Ming hurriedly waved his hands. "I actually don’t know anything about this."

Wang Jingchuan also said, "I don’t know anything about this either."

Jingyao was speechless for a moment. No loyalty at all!

After that, he looked at Gu Anxi and said, a little awkward, "Fine, it’s him."

"Have you found him?" Gu Anxi asked.

Old Wang Bro took a hard drag on his cigarette and told the truth. "He ran. And we can’t make a big show of looking for him, so it’s a bit tricky."

Gu Anxi bit into a White Rabbit candy, thinking as she chewed. "Let me try."

Chen Ming’s eyes lit up, feeling he finally had a chance to witness the great master’s skills. Jingyao slapped his thigh. "Right, why didn’t I think of that? We’ve got a ready-made electronic eye right here."

Gu Anxi said slowly, "But if I do find him, I have one condition."

"Name it."

Gu Anxi said softly, "Don’t make things hard for him. He’s not a bad person."

Jingyao fell silent. After a moment, he let out a bitter laugh. "You little brat, is that really the kind of person I am in your eyes?"

He paused, then added, "I just don’t want your sister-in-law to be sad, that’s all. If I really wanted to, I’d just let them meet and they wouldn’t even get the chance—cut the weeds and pull up the roots, done."

Gu Anxi gave a faint smile, then went to get a laptop. Her ten fingers began flying over the keys.

The other three all held their breath, not daring to speak too loud.

After about an hour, Gu Anxi’s hands finally stopped.

"Found him?" Jingyao leaned over and asked quietly.

Gu Anxi shook her head. "No."

Old Wang Bro was a bit disappointed and started puffing on his cigarette again. After a while, he slanted a look at her. "Are you still up to it or not?"

Gu Anxi bristled at once. "If I can’t find him, no one can! And I haven’t finished talking yet."

Jingyao immediately lowered his stance. "Why didn’t you say so earlier, hurry up and tell us."

"Now I don’t feel like saying it." Gu Anxi snorted lightly.

Jingyao couldn’t help saying, "You little girl, you’re putting on airs with me now?"

But he quickly softened his tone and half-coaxed her. "Okay, okay, just say it. It’s my fault, all right?"

Only then was Gu Anxi satisfied. She pondered for a moment and said, "If I can’t find him, there’s only one possibility: he’s right around us, in a blind spot the electronic eyes can’t see—or in other words, he’s inside Yunxi Hospital."

"He’s that capable?" Jingyao was skeptical and glanced at his right-hand man, Wang Jingchuan.

Wang Jingchuan said helplessly, "Lawyer Feng retired from Special Unit B. His skills shouldn’t be bad, and his counter-surveillance is strong too."

Chen Ming added, "The Secretary-General’s right. I heard his marksmanship is amazing too. He used to be a legendary figure."

As he spoke, there was even a hint of longing in his expression, which made Old Wang Bro furious. He snorted coldly. "If he’s so amazing, how’d he end up almost getting himself killed?"

Gu Anxi rolled her eyes. "Please, he was on a commercial plane, not a fighter jet."

Old Wang Bro got metaphorical dust on his nose and shut up.

Gu Anxi started typing on the laptop again. A moment later, a map appeared on the screen. She circled a section on it, stared at it for quite a while, then muttered, "He’s somewhere between Building 1 and Building 2."
