His eyes, like a catâs, tilted upwards at the corners.
Deep black irises flecked with hints of dark green locked onto the girl in front of him, radiating the sharp gaze of a hunter.
Si Fuqing, unphased and slightly puzzled, asked, âWhat are you talking about?â
âHolographic game,â Jiang Changfeng replied slowly. âIâve played it too, and Iâve seen you there.â
In the game, everyone was in disguise, and the true identity of the Heavenly Doctor Ghosthand was unknown.
âWith current technology, itâs impossible to create holographic games, right?â Si Fuqing crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow. âIâd love to play. Can you tell me where?â
Jiang Changfeng furrowed his brows, certain in his tone, âItâs you, Iâm sure of it.â
âAh, I remember now,â Si Fuqingâs expression relaxed as she stepped forward.
âHolographic gaming, Iâve heard of it.â In the next instant, she moved swiftly.
âBang!â
Jiang Changfeng was pinned against the wall, his hands twisted behind him, unable to move.
His expression grew sharp, but before he could react, a cool voice from behind warned, âDonât move.â
Jiang Changfeng froze.
âDo you believe that I could kill you right here?â Si Fuqingâs voice was lazy yet
menacing. âAs the âHeavenly Doctor Ghosthandâ you speak of, I have numerous ways to instantly deprive you of mobility and speech.â
âYour death here would go unnoticed by everyone. Thatâs simple for me.â Her tone carried its usual languor and nonchalance, but her intent was deadly.
Jiang Changfeng tensed up.
After a few seconds, he sighed in resignation, âI believe you.â
He paused, then added apologetically, âSorry for the intrusion. Iâm Changningâs brother. I followed her here.â
Si Fuqing narrowed her eyes, then lifted her gaze, scrutinizing Jiang Changfeng carefully.
His features resembled Changningâs, both possessing a cold and aloof beauty, though his features were sharper.
âThe hand cream you gave to Changning had a scent that revealed your expertise in refining medicine,â Jiang Changfeng explained. âI showed it to the elders, and theyconfirmed itâs the work of the Heavenly Doctor Ghosthand.â âBut they said it must be the discipleâs work, as the ingredients were subpar.â Si Fuqing remained expressionless.
Who would believe that she, lacking funds, would use poor ingredients?
The best batch was reserved for Yu Xiheng.
It was all because of that dog Pixiu.
âI came to see for myself,â Jiang Changfeng continued, his cat-like eyes narrowing slightly. âI learned from Ningning that youâre in financial trouble, so I knew it wasnât the disciple but the Ghosthand herself.â
Even he found it hard to believe that the Heavenly Doctor Ghosthand, sought after by the Miracle Doctor Alliance, the three aristocratic families, and both T18 and Zero intelligence organizations, was a idol.
And so young at that.
Based on his investigation, Si Fuqing had just turned 18, while he was already
The elders had spoken of the Ghosthand when he was still a minor.
The legend described unparalleled medical skills.
How could the Ghosthand still be a young girl when he was already an adult?
Reverse aging seemed impossible.
Even if the Heavenly Doctor Ghosthand could preserve oneâs appearance and eternal youth, the age of the bones is something that absolutely cannot be reversed.
Jiang Changfeng couldnât fathom the age discrepancy, but he didnât dwell on it.
Once determined, it was fact.
Finally, Si Fuqing released him.
She crossed her arms, her eyes lifting slightly, âSo youâre the brother Ningning mentioned? Good-looking but with a terrible temper?â
Jiang Changfengâs temple twitched, his smile strained, âYes.â
âVery acute senses,â Si Fuqing commented, her deadly aura receding. âSeems I need to be more careful.â
A single hand cream had revealed her identity. Jiang Changfengâs medical Imowledge was not to be underestimated.
âMiss Si can rest assured,â Jiang Changfeng pointed to his nose. âMy sense of smell is naturally sharp. Others, even with machines, might not have noticed.â âI havenât told anyone and donât plan to, including Ningning.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMhmm,â Si Fuqing responded nonchalantly. âThen why are you staring at me?
Interested?â
Recalling Jiang Changningâs threat of laxatives, Jiang Changfeng quickly backed away, cautious, âI wouldnât dare..â
