The Female Assassin Pretends to Be a Lamb in the Campus

Chapter 112

Cheng Jinyan going to Peking University to give lectures topped the hot search.

Social news, legal news, political news, life and education and other news reported on it together, overwhelming all sorts of entertainment news.

It made numerous law school students across the country extremely envious, while also making female students from across the nation admire and be infatuated with him. It directly shocked the entire lawyer community.

The hour-long lecture content of Cheng Jinyan was recorded by students and madly shared across the internet.

It was hailed by the entire web as the lecture with the highest quality and most pleasing to the eye.

Just shortly after Cheng Jinyan and Qiao Ying walked out the gate of Peking University, a photo of Cheng Jinyan and Qiao Ying embracing each other in the pavilion emerged on the forums, like a bolt from the blue, once again exciting the students.

Even student groups from several nearby universities received it.

[“Please, a mature, steady top lawyer and an 18-year-old student beauty genius are also very good to ship, okay?”]

[“Are these two really just ordinary bosom friends?”]

[“Lawyer Cheng said they were old friends. Is it not normal for old friends to embrace when meeting? Though, who can tell me why others have such awesome old friends at 18 while I have not even had a confidant after living 20 years.”]

[“Ask: What’s it feel like to embrace with such a high level person? What fragrance does the embrace of the master have?”]

[“Is it just me who felt lawyer Cheng’s last line in class ‘look at student Qiao Ying’s need’ was so charming and doting?”]

[“I don’t even want to ship them but lawyer Cheng specially rushed back overnight from far away to support Qiao Ying...”]

[“Saving the picture to make it my wallpaper”]

[“Is this picture not more pleasing to the eye than those overly edited covers of entertainment circle?”]

[“Poster above, be bolder. If these two went into the entertainment industry their looks and temperament could easily stir chaos.”]

[“I’ve already gone crazy from shipping Qiao Ying and Huo Shao.”]

With the help of Peking University students, the photo of the two in embrace successfully topped the hot search in just a few minutes...

At this moment, the two people concerned were drinking merrily at the biggest bar in the capital.

Cheng Jinyan had not felt this happy for a long time. After a few drinks, a thin red flush emerged on his cheeks under the gold-rimmed glasses.

“For such a huge matter, you told that loudmouth Ye Si but didn’t tell me? Last time in Yuncheng, you just watched me secretly feel sad and even lied to me that you contacted me through Ye Si. If Ye Si didn’t tell me today, would you have continued to hide it from me?”

“I needed Ye Si to help me process a few corpses.”

Upon hearing this, Cheng Jinyan felt even more emotional. “Are a few corpses something I can’t handle? Is it only Ye Si who can deal with them?”

Qiao Ying: “Lawyer Cheng, watch your identity.”

Cheng Jinyan: “Fine, let’s put aside this debt first. What exactly happened when you first told us you were going to execute a mission with an uncertain return time, explaining your disappearance for over half a year, as well as your occasional lost contact over the six months prior?”

Qiao Ying: “I didn’t go to execute any mission.”

Cheng Jinyan: “Ye Si said you left Dark Shadow and had a falling out, that you died by Dark Shadow’s hands?”

Qiao Ying: “More or less.”

Cheng Jinyan: “So what exactly happened?”

It wasn't hard to guess that the reason Dark Shadow wanted to take down their most outstanding masterpiece - Blood Shadow - was because Blood Shadow's strength made him uncontrollable to them.

Insufficient ability leads to death by others' hands. Too much power leads to death by one's own people's hands.

For a killer, the most uncontrollable thing is one's own life.

But Cheng Jinyan knew things were absolutely not that simple between Blood Shadow and Dark Shadow. Blood Shadow would absolutely not have died that easily by Dark Shadow’s hands.

It was also impossible that her complete disappearance for over half a year was due to hiding from Dark Shadow’s chase. Not to mention her own power, she could have asked him and Ye Si for help.

The pitch dark, inhuman scenes in the underground lab emerged in his mind. Qiao Ying drank and her expression remained normal.

She said: “Let’s not talk about this today. Don’t mention this matter for now.”

Sensing the subtle change in her mood, Cheng Jinyan could only skip over it. After a moment of silence he asked a key question.

“Does Dark Shadow know you’re still alive?” Cheng Jinyan lowered his voice.

“I happened to reclaim my title last time at the M Continent Gladiator Competition so Dark Shadow is keeping an eye on me now.” said Qiao Ying.

Cheng Jinyan: “So you didn’t let Ye Si come back to see you for fear that Dark Shadow would further doubt your identity?”

Qiao Ying: “Mhmm.”

Cheng Jinyan: “And yet you called me to come here? Should I feel honored that you cherish me this much?”

Because Ye Si had said Blood Shadow was inconvenient meeting them now, Cheng Jinyan had not chosen to immediately find her after knowing Blood Shadow was still alive, and didn't even contact her.

In the end, Blood Shadow took the initiative to contact him over such a small matter.

Qiao Ying gave a laugh “Don’t mind, the enmity between us and Dark Shadow will be settled sooner or later. I'm already prepared. I’m just waiting for them to come knocking.”

Cheng Jinyan: “People, weapons, feel free to make demands.”

Qiao Ying: “Rest assured, I won't stand on courtesy with you.”

Hearing this, Cheng Jinyan felt much better. “Then Dark Shadow must be completely confused now?”

Qiao Ying chuckled: “Right. Confused is an understatement. Honestly which normal person could possibly think of being reborn.”

They were probably busy digging up everything about Qiao Ying. The more they stared at her, the more they discovered countless intricate connections between her and Blood Shadow. Hence, they were increasingly perplexed at how two completely unrelated people in identity and genes could have the same skills.

Just thinking about it made Cheng Jinyan chuckle.

“Oh, Ye Si said you made a friend. You even gifted him a watch. Rare of you to make new friends, zealously gifting such a quality present too. I’m rather curious what lucky guy could make you so enthusiastic to give gifts.”

Qiao Ying: “A businessman. You would not be interested.”

“A businessman? Weren’t you always turned off by that coppery smell businessmen exude? How’d you make this change of heart?”

“His coppery smell...” Qiao Ying thought for a bit before earnestly giving a line: “It’s rather nice.”

Cheng Jinyan looked at her vividly: “No no. Ye Si said you would not like a 30 year old man.”

Qiao Ying embarrassedly said: “His mouth is...shit-like.”

Cheng Jinyan laughed heartily: “Indeed.”

At this moment, a certain 30 year old man had been watching his phone for over 10 minutes. Displayed on the screen was shockingly the photo of Qiao Ying and Cheng Jinyan tightly embracing in the pavilion...

Around 10 pm,

The bar was already packed.

Qiao Ying and Cheng Jinyan sat in a booth.

Before them on the table already lay 7-8 empty bottles.

“Little beauty, not bad alcohol tolerance. What say you drink with brothers? When brothers get happy drunk, drinks tonight will be on me.” A skinny man with a buzzcut walked over, drink in hand.

7-8 lackeys followed behind.

Both of them ignored, continuing to clink cups and chat, acting as if the men didn’t exist.

Seeing himself get ignored, Buzzcut felt his face couldn’t hang on. Then, he sat right beside Qiao Ying.

“Little beauty, why don’t you notice people?”

As he spoke, his hand went to wrap around Qiao Ying’s shoulder. “Brother isn’t a bad man. Just wants to make a new friend.”

His hand was just about to touch Qiao Ying’s shoulder when his wrist was caught by another hand.

Buzzcut looked over to Cheng Jinyan’s smiling face.

“Friend, speak if you want. Don’t touch unprompted..”

“What business of yours when I speak with her? Know your place and piss off.” Buzzcut noticed Qiao Ying the moment they came in and disliked Cheng Jinyan already with his pretentious attire.

“I paid money for these seats. You’re telling me to piss off?” As Cheng Jinyan spoke, he gripped Buzzcut’s hand with force, bringing up his arm over Qiao Ying’s head.

Buzzcut’s face showed pain as he struggled to break free.

He did not expect the seemingly delicate and pampered Cheng Jinyan to have such force, his struggles fruitless.

When Cheng Jinyan finally released his grip, Buzzcut’s wrist was already a bruised purple.

Buzzcut rotated his sore wrist and his face turned extremely unpleasant.

Then he walked over to Cheng Jinyan’s side, heavily leaning his arms on Cheng Jinyan’s shoulders.

“Brother, which gang you mix with?”

He lifted Cheng Jinyan’s blazer and tie.

“I hear men nowadays love to dress up as elite persons to pick up chicks in bars. You look the part. Real estate? Or marketing?” Cheng Jinyan laughed and earnestly said: “Just an ordinary lawyer.”

Buzzcut burst into loud laughter and the lackeys followed suit.

After laughing enough, the man with a crew cut patted Cheng Jinyan's shoulder forcefully and said with a smile still on his face but fierce look in his eyes: "It's fate. I'm with the Black Glossy Society and just love you lawyers."
