Chapter 1973 - 1909: Be a Little More Cautious

The scene from last night where the "Second Master" imprinted their footprints was still vivid in her mind.

Although he actually knows Meng Xinian and can recognize him, why did he still need to make an imprint of his footprint?

If he wanted to find her, wouldn’t it be enough to just take her footprint?

Chiang Xiao always felt there was something strange about this, but she couldn’t quite figure out what the other party meant.

Anyway, it’s always better to be cautious, right?

Meng Xinian nodded.

"I see, we’ll all change our shoes."

Since they were going to leave, they didn’t linger for long, and soon Meng Xinian and his group checked out of the hotel.

Chiang Xiao was hiding in a corner of the lobby, watching them leave.

Jun Weichi was also with them, carrying a white suitcase.

That John should have left, at least he wasn’t seen.

Meng Xinian walked away without looking back.

Even though Chiang Xiao knew he should have sensed her presence, he still didn’t turn around.

Watching them leave the hotel, Chiang Xiao couldn’t help but feel a bit angry at that Second Master.

If it weren’t for that man, they could have met every day during those ten days.

When she could no longer see them, she turned and walked toward the room.

"Chiang Xiao."

Pheng Fei’s voice came from behind.

Chiang Xiao stopped and turned around, as expected seeing Pheng Fei walking quickly towards her.

"Are you ready? I’ll take you out for breakfast first, then we’ll head to Mr. Wen Li’s estate."

"Are we going to the estate?"

"Yes, it’s a bit of a distance, so we should go early." Pheng Fei’s face still had some faint bruises, but he never mentioned how he got them.

Chiang Xiao and Liu Guoying never asked what happened either.

They originally thought it was Pheng Fei’s private matter, but unexpectedly, it had a little to do with Chiang Xiao.

"I’ve already given the teacher some bread and milk this morning. He didn’t sleep well last night and should still be asleep," Chiang Xiao said. "So, we don’t need to wake him up. Let him sleep, I’ve told him already."

Liu Guoying might not leave the room before the afternoon.

"I see, why didn’t Teacher Liu rest well? Is it because of the bed?" Pheng Fei asked.

"No, no, we discussed a few topics last night and lost track of time." Chiang Xiao stuck out her tongue, looking a bit embarrassed and guilty.

She couldn’t possibly say it was because she was worried and stayed up all night.

Pheng Fei laughed.

"You really look the part of academics."

"Oh, not really." Embarrassed.

"In that case, I’ll inform the hotel to prepare lunch and have it sent to the room, so Liu Teacher doesn’t have to go out."

Otherwise, with him not knowing the language and being unfamiliar with the place, Chiang Xiao would be worried.

"Thank you, Arthur, you’re always so considerate."

Pheng Fei handled the matter, and Chiang Xiao left a note for the hotel staff to give to Liu Guoying along with the meal before leaving with Pheng Fei.

However, after breakfast, she didn’t forget to have him take her to the mall first.

The mall had just opened.

Chiang Xiao quickly bought two sets of clothes and two pairs of shoes, changed into a new outfit at the mall, and got into Pheng Fei’s car.

Pheng Fei gave her a once-over.
