At this moment, Ye Chenfeng also wasn’t feeling great because he was being watched. Someone had been following him since he left Chen Xijun’s car.
What he needed to do now was to shake off the person following him.
Lighting another cigarette, Ye Chenfeng straightened his shirt collar and strode forth like Golden Knife. He plunged into a nearby commercial building.
Right behind him, You Ming, with a cold expression on his face, followed.
This initiated a chase between Ye Chenfeng and You Ming. Soon after, Ye Chenfeng had made it to the eighteenth floor and took a direct service elevator from the shopping center’s warehouse down.
In the time it took to smoke a few drags, the elevator reached the first floor. After the elevator came to a halt, the doors slowly began to open, letting in a sliver of light.
However, the next moment, Ye Chenfeng’s eyes widened because he saw a man, his face as cold as a block of ice. It was You Ming.
With lightning speed, Ye Chenfeng closed the elevator door. You Ming only saw a blur of a shadow; he hadn’t gotten a clear look at Ye Chenfeng’s face at all.
Ye Chenfeng immediately pressed the button for the 17th floor. Of course, this wasn’t a random choice; he made a complex analysis based on the perspective of Trait Psychology, which is one of the seven subfields of psychology from a personality psychology perspective.
In front of an agent from the Six Fan Sect, the elevator would lose its speed advantage, as they could run faster than the elevator, and You Ming’s travel from the eighteenth to the first floor to wait for Ye Chenfeng in the elevator was the best example.
The biggest advantage Ye Chenfeng now had was that You Ming didn’t know which floor he would appear on. You Ming could miss him entirely, and the chance of capturing Ye Chenfeng was only one in twenty, or even lower!
Additionally, he definitely couldn’t choose the lower floors because You Ming would have enough time to react.
Most people would choose a middle floor, which is hard to predict and offers more choices.
Finally, with a gentle sound, the elevator doors opened on the 17th floor, and the bright walls of the elevator reflected You Ming’s figure.
You Ming, true to his elite status within the Six Fan Sect, had correctly guessed that Ye Chenfeng would stop on the 17th floor.
For the first time, You Ming’s icy face showed a fluctuation of emotion, his pupils sharply constricting. The elevator was empty?
The elevator had stopped only once, but the person was gone. Could this be a supernatural event?
Just as You Ming was puzzled, the elevator doors automatically began to close and slowly descended.
In a second, You Ming had analyzed everything once through, suddenly realized something, and immediately dashed toward the stairwell as if flying.
The elevator didn’t go straight to the first floor; it opened midway on the fifteenth floor. As You Ming sprinted to the stairwell of the fifteenth floor, he caught a glimpse of a shadow darting past. He didn’t think twice and sprinted up!
Exiting the commercial building, You Ming was startled as he saw someone boarding a taxi that had just left. He quickly hailed another taxi, knocked the driver unconscious, and drove after the first taxi himself.
At this point, there was already slight traffic congestion. As the vehicles slowly moved, You Ming, with his excellent skills, slowly maneuvered towards the taxi that Ye Chenfeng was in.
Ye Chenfeng immediately noticed the unusual flow of traffic and realized that You Ming had caught up again.
Not bad, young man, strong tracking skills. He actually managed a second pursuit.
Finally, after a few minutes, the traffic jam ended, and all the vehicles gradually picked up speed.
The taxi ahead drove off as if it were crazy, and You Ming didn’t dare delay and hurriedly chased after it.
About ten minutes later, the taxi stopped in front of a hotel.
You Ming stepped on the gas and the car shot forward like an arrow released from a bow. Then, with a sudden brake, it stopped in front of the taxi. At the same time, You Ming, with the speed of lightning, charged out just as the passenger stepped out of the car door, and You Ming’s pistol was already pressed against the man’s temple.
"Put your hands on your head and slowly come out!" You Ming ordered coldly. He found it hard to believe that such an expert in anti-tracking could look so ordinary without a single noteworthy feature.
However, You Ming casually glanced inside the car and was shocked to see the taxi driver’s photo on the ID card, which was exactly the man beside him.
A bad premonition surged at the bottom of his heart; You Ming knew his mission had failed. The target had escaped without him even knowing when.
You Ming was dumbfounded, not only had he failed to catch the man, but he had also ended up apologizing profusely to the taxi driver, and been called a "crazy" in the end.
"Brother Shaoqing, the mission failed. The target is an expert in anti-tracking, and I was no match for him!" Eventually, You Ming reported his situation.
"So, how do you evaluate his strength?" Gu Shaoqing asked.
After a moment’s thought, You Ming responded, "Brother Shaoqing, I think the target didn’t want to play with me. If it had been a direct confrontation, I probably wouldn’t have survived!"
"Oh, interesting!" A smile formed on Gu Shaoqing’s lips.
By now, Ye Chenfeng had already returned to his company, but his focus was still on the Bronze Disc.
"The first Bronze Disc was snatched from Bai Jie, and the second can also be considered as taken from her. Therefore, it’s time to act through Bai Jie to find out about the whereabouts of the other Bronze Discs!" Ye Chenfeng already had a plan in his mind.
"Ye Chenfeng, how dare you show your face here? What were you doing at Lu Wanqing’s place?" At this moment, Chu Qingxue had just come back from a meeting. Seeing Ye Chenfeng, she immediately questioned him.
Not long ago, Lu Wanqing had called her, accusing Ye Chenfeng of deliberately bullying her, which infuriated Chu Qingxue so much that she almost couldn’t continue her meeting.
While everything here was a mess, Ye Chenfeng found the time to travel all the way to Jiangnan University to tease his best friend.
"I didn’t do anything. I just felt that my cultural knowledge was declining recently and thought of going to the library to catch up, but then that bitch, Lu Wanqing, showed up and almost got me killed!" Ye Chenfeng expressed his frustration.
Chu Qingxue gave him a look, "Although what you say makes sense, I don’t believe you. Are you interested in Lu Wanqing? If you are, I can go and ask for her hand on your behalf!"
The tea Ye Chenfeng had just sipped spurted out of his mouth.
Damn, what kind of melodrama is this? A fiancée finding another woman for her betrothed?
"I’d rather live ten years less than choose her. Being with her is life-threatening!" Ye Chenfeng declared indignantly.
"Then stop hanging around in front of me. Seeing you annoys me!" Chu Qingxue said.
"You should have said so earlier!" Ye Chenfeng said, relieved.
"Ye Chenfeng, come back here! You can’t go there!" Seeing Ye Chenfeng start to walk away, Chu Qingxue quickly called out.
In one day, he had come to understand the unique way of thinking of women: Lu Wanqing, Chen Xijun, and now Chu Qingxue.
Wasn’t it you who said seeing me annoys you and told me to leave?
