Chapter 1148: Maybe Not Even a Chance to Escape
Xia Chuxue steadied her steps and waved her hand: "I’m fine."As soon as she spoke, her gaze returned once more to Feng Yan.
At this moment, Feng Yan had also arrived in front of her.
Looking at the swaying figure, Xia Yinian almost couldn’t recognize who was in front of her.
Based on her observation of Xia Chuxue, her previous frailty wasn’t an act.
Xia Yinian never asked Feng Yan where exactly Xia Chuxue had gone, but now seeing her, she could probably guess.
She once heard Chi He say that if they made a mistake or their actions didn’t meet the Seventh Young Master’s requirements, they’d be sent back to the training base.
Just like in Beicheng, Ah Yen also had many people around him, so he probably had a specific base for training them too.
Aside from this possibility, Xia Yinian couldn’t think of anything else.
No matter what, Xia Chuxue is still the young lady of the Feng Family, and Ah Yen definitely wouldn’t be too harsh on her.
Children from prominent families must all undergo training; the Gu Family was the same, and the Feng Family should be no different.
On the day Xia Chuxue clarified her identity, not only did she offend the Seventh Young Master, but she also angered the Song Family of Yaoshan. Sending her to the base for protection wasn’t a bad decision.
"Brother Yan." Xia Chuxue steadied her steps and softly called out.
Feng Yan nodded and continued to walk forward.
He didn’t say anything, and Xia Yinian and Qin Yiheng didn’t pay any more attention either, following in step behind him.
Xia Chuxue didn’t dare to ask more questions and tread carefully from behind.
The bodyguards stationed not far away approached.
"Third Young Master, Lady Chuxue has been waiting here for over an hour. She said..."
"Mm, let her in." Feng Yan nodded in response.
The other two were clearly with the Third Young Master, so the bodyguard didn’t ask much.
But Lady Chuxue was different. Like the other members of the Feng Family, she couldn’t get in without the Third Young Master’s order.
"Yes, Third Young Master." The bodyguard nodded, standing by.
The four of them walked into the main hall together. Given that this was Xia Yinian’s first time coming as He Xiaoxiao, Feng Yan paused.
He glanced back at Xia Chuxue and then sat down on the sofa.
"Yiheng is my friend, and this is his assistant, Xiao Xiao. They’re here today to check on Grandpa’s situation, so we’ll wait here for a bit."
Feng Yan looked at Xia Chuxue when he spoke, and she was undoubtedly the one he was addressing.
Xia Chuxue hadn’t expected his attitude to change so favorably so quickly, giving her more confidence in her transformation.
Sometimes, to win a man’s sympathy and love, rushing might backfire.
"Okay." She nodded and sat at the other end of the sofa, her gaze locking on the two departing figures.
Qin Yiheng’s name was well-known in Ye City, but his personal exposure was low, making Xia Chuxue feel quite unfamiliar with him.
And as for this female assistant, somehow she felt uneasy about her.
However, to leave a good impression on Feng Yan, Xia Chuxue refrained from staring for long.
She crossed her long legs slightly, leaned slightly sideways, and placed her hands on her knees, not saying anything more.
Although Xia Chuxue appeared calm, she was actually very nervous inside.
The old man waking up was really not part of her plan.
Even though he couldn’t speak right now, Brother Yan certainly wouldn’t give up.
The people he found to treat the old man were clearly extraordinary.
If the old man could speak now, she might not even have a chance to escape.
