Chapter 660: That Familiar Feeling 20
Xia Yinian was actually not sitting far away. She had not intended to eavesdrop, but the recent conversation had still reached her ears.Yesterday, from the moment she was abducted until she returned to sleep in Feng Family’s house, at least five hours had passed.
Uncle Ye appeared, and so did Third Young Master of Feng Family, unfortunately, only the uncle did not show up.
Was he really too busy, or was he with Yu Wanqing?
Originally, there was a slight hope that Uncle Ye was the uncle, but since the uncle was with Yu Wanqing all of yesterday, how could that still be possible?
Suddenly, there was another commotion in the center of the hotel lobby. Third Young Master Feng, who had finished giving instructions inside, came out.
Not until Feng Yan had left did everyone quiet down.
Xia Chuxue stopped in the crowd, her head bowed the entire time, appearing very humble.
How she wished Brother Yan could have turned around to say to her, "Don’t be nervous, I’ll come and pick you up this afternoon," or at least have given her a deep, affectionate gaze.
Unfortunately, there was nothing. He just left like that.
Xia Chuxue felt a bit let down, but after hearing the crowd’s chatter, her mood improved tremendously.
"Wasn’t that man just now the Third Young Master of Feng Family?"
"Right, it was him. So handsome! Absolutely drop-dead gorgeous."
"Then who is this woman? Third Young Master Feng’s girlfriend?"
"No way, right?"
"It’s hard to say, but Third Young Master Feng did come here with her."
"..."
"Alright, everyone," Fang Rong appeared in the lobby and clapped her hands.
The hotel lobby finally quieted down, and everyone turned to look at the person behind them.
"There was a little issue just now, which caused a few minutes’ delay. Let’s board the bus now, our first stop is the Medicinal Field."
"Today’s Medicinal Field is different from yesterday’s..."
Fang Rong explained the plan once more, and everyone, forming a relatively orderly queue, left the hotel. The bus had been waiting there early on.
As Xia Yinian had expected, Yuan Yaying didn’t sit with her.
After glancing at the man who came in and sat down, Xia Yinian frowned slightly and then withdrew her gaze.
The man looked somewhat familiar; she seemed to have seen him somewhere before.
Soon, she remembered. This was the man on the plane, sitting in the same row with them, right next to Yuan Yaying.
"Hello!" Xia Yinian turned her head and glanced at him.
Since someone had sat down next to her, she couldn’t completely ignore him.
But it seemed the man had different thoughts. His gaze swept over Xia Yinian and moved on without responding to any conversation.
Did this guy have to be so cool? Could it be that she had encountered an expert?
It was said that this Alchemy Competition had been more widely promoted than in any previous years, attracting many remarkable individuals.
Experts often have peculiar personalities; is that why this man kept to himself, unwilling to talk with others?
Xia Yinian pursed her lips, deciding not to bother him anymore.
Though he might be cold, having this man sitting here meant she didn’t need to deal with the other women, granting her some peace.
Xia Chuxue sat in the last corner of the bus, a spot not usually chosen by anyone.
She sat there, her head down, without any unnecessary movements.
"Hello! My name is Wan Meimei. What’s your name?" A very elegantly dressed woman sat down beside her.
Xia Chuxue looked up at her and lightly pursed her lips.
"My name is Xia Chuxue. Nice to meet you!"
"Xia Chuxue? That’s a very pleasant name," Wan Meimei said with a smile.
Feng Yan was the man she had liked since she was very young. Seeing a woman suddenly appear by his side today, of course, she was not pleased.
