Chapter 2629 - 2565: Extraordinary Talent

"So why did you decide to become a bodyguard?"

"I didn’t originally plan on becoming a bodyguard. I just wanted to find an ordinary job that pays well and doesn’t require sitting around all day drinking tea and reading the newspaper. Even though I’ve stepped down, I can’t sit still. So, I ended up with a job like this with a decent salary."

Ding Haijing chuckled, "That’s pretty good."

Indeed, it’s pretty good.

He doesn’t have to let his skills go to waste, doesn’t have to face so many people, and the pay is high.

The main thing is, he’s also quite satisfied with this employer.

However, his expression suddenly became serious as he looked at Chiang Xiao.

"Why, after all I’ve said, don’t you want to say something in exchange? Xiao Chiang, you’re really being insincere here."

"What kind of sincerity do you want?"

"I can tell you one thing, and you must remember it well—it’s very important." Ding Haijing said seriously, "Don’t think I’m exaggerating; people who come from that place have extraordinary talents, in other words, Hu Xiangyong is not an ordinary person."

Upon hearing this from him, Chiang Xiao was startled.

She almost lost her composure uncontrollably.

What did Ding Haijing say?

Extraordinary talents?

What does that mean?

He said that people who come from that place all have extraordinary talents, which implies that he also has...

Seeing her reaction, Ding Haijing waved his hand and said, "I’ve reached my limit in telling you this, so don’t ask about me anymore. Now it’s your turn to talk."

Chiang Xiao was taken aback for quite a while.

But Ding Haijing wasn’t surprised, considering his revelation might be quite shocking for Chiang Xiao. The more incredulous she seemed, the more it showed she really didn’t know about these matters.

After a long pause, Chiang Xiao finally handed over the knife in her hand.

Ding Haijing: "..."

What does this mean?

Chiang Xiao pointed at the bloodstain on the knife and said, "See that blood? Didn’t you also mention those people want to hurt me? I think their goal is to take my blood."

"What?"

This time, it was Ding Haijing’s turn to nearly jump up.

"What do you mean?"

"Do you remember what Ji Yuzhi said to me at the school before? Ji Yuzhi might already be with Hu Xiangyong. I suspect she heard something and came to warn me. So, those people were probably sent by Hu Xiangyong. He wants them to get my blood, which makes me suspect if Hu Xiangyong has joined some strange institution and wants to research something."

This has to be her sincerity, right?

It’s quite something that she can even reveal this, isn’t it?

Ding Haijing’s expression changed drastically.

Things Chiang Xiao didn’t understand, didn’t he understand them?

The research conducted by people from that place, what kind of research could it be?

He stared closely at Chiang Xiao, "What’s different about you? Why does he want to research you?"

"Medicinal painting. Wasn’t he just here looking for that yesterday? Before, he always wanted me to paint as well. So, I suspect he thinks my medicine is special in some way."

"And your painting?"

"Didn’t I say before? It’s a medicinal painting. Back then, I got a lot of good medicine from Bai Gu Mountain, haven’t you heard? Besides, I still have some really good Old Ginseng hidden. Should I bring it out to show you?"

Without waiting for Ding Haijing to respond, she ran out and quickly came back with a box, opening it in front of him.
