Chapter 166: Chapter 167: Want to Bump into Xiao Ning? No Way!
“Mr. Shen…” the assistant whispered with hope. How could he leave just after arriving? He really wanted to have a look at the legendary War Wolf Rescue Team!
“What’s up?” Xu Qigang raised an eyebrow and asked. Thinking of bumping into Xiao Ning? No way!
“Nothing!” Shen Jianguo, ever the gentleman, simply smiled without saying a word.
Less than half an hour later, Li Duoxi swiftly gathered the members of the Provincial Rescue Center and even managed to load everything into the big truck.
“Thank you!” Shen Jianguo got up to express his gratitude. “From now on, I’ll coordinate directly with the Provincial Rescue Center!”
“Take care!” Xu Qigang didn’t bother to see him out.
Once out of the Captain’s office, the assistant followed behind Shen Jianguo, still shaken. “My granny, Captain Xu is really terrifying.” He had been too nervous to even speak just now.
“Frightening?” Shen Jianguo muttered to himself with an implication, thinking of the fearless Sheng Ning. Perhaps there really was a woman who was not afraid of the Living Yama.
“Indeed! I was scared to death! That murderous aura was so overwhelming.” The young comrade exaggerated with wild gesticulations.
“There was indeed a murderous aura.” He felt that the aura seemed to be directed at him.
“Mr. Shen, you felt it too? He truly lives up to the reputation of the Living Yama. Now when I go back to the Research Institute, I’ll have something to boast about.” A battle hero, the current king of rescue, awarded first-class merit, the youngest Captain. Any of these honors could make one’s ancestors proud.
You’d wake up laughing in your sleep.
“Hmm, I felt it, very clearly.” Shen Jianguo noticed that Xu Qigang’s reaction this time was quite different from before, although it hadn’t been openly displayed.
But he could feel it, a touch of surprise in his heart.
Considering Xu Qigang’s character, many leaders had praised him, which was without question. So, he wouldn’t think it was a personal issue. Could it be that he had mishandled that particular matter?
Suddenly, Shen Jianguo stopped in his tracks, looking at the woman in front of him.
“Hello, Mr. Shen.” Zhou Xuelian, nervous in front of the handsome Shen Jianguo, didn’t even know where to put her hands. He was even more handsome than the college students in town.
She was born with a poor sense of direction, so she ended up being the slowest to the cafeteria today. Everyone else had left, leaving her by herself. As a result, she got lost and unexpectedly ran into Shen Jianguo while wandering aimlessly.
“May I help you?” Shen Jianguo’s voice carried a hint of displeasure.
“It’s … I… I know you, don’t you remember me?”
Shen Jianguo honestly shook his head. There were many women who knew him, but he knew very few.
Far from being embarrassed at the slight, Zhou Xuelian stepped even closer to Shen Jianguo. “Mr. Shen, I’m Zhou Xuelian from the General Union Song and Dance Troupe. We met before at the union cafeteria, Qin Cuifen was there too.”
At the mention of Qin Cuifen, Shen Jianguo thought of Sheng Ning. It had been a month since he’d seen her. How could that delicate girl withstand the tough training of the War Wolf Rescue Team?
Originally, he had fought for this mission just to see Sheng Ning on the side, wondering whether she would still avoid him. The more she hid, the harder it was for him to let go.
Thinking this, Shen Jianguo decided to go see her anyway; otherwise, his trip would be in vain.
“Do you know Comrade Sheng Ning?”
“Sheng Ning?” Zhou Xuelian’s mouth twitched, and she wished she could tear Sheng Ning to pieces in her heart. That wretch had not only snagged the Living Yama but also seemed to have won over Mr. Shen.
It seems what Qin Cuifen said was right!
“You know her, don’t you?” Shen Jianguo looked into Zhou Xuelian’s eyes and asked.
