Chapter 928: Unexpected Meeting

Shangguan Wan complained about the strange-tempered man for a while before changing the topic.

Captain Jiang asked Shangguan Wan, “In a few days, there will be an art troupe coming to the border for a charity performance. I want to invite someone out for dinner. Do you think it’ll be better for me to wear my military uniform or casual clothes?”

Shangguan Wan immediately understood. “Is the girl who pursued you coming over?”

Captain Jiang laughed awkwardly.

“If you’re going out for a date, wear casual clothes!” Seeming to have thought of something, Shangguan Wan continued, “But not many of your private clothes are presentable. I’ll go to the mall tomorrow and buy two sets and send it to you!”

“No need…”“Why are you so polite to me? Since the girl’s coming over, you have to tidy yourself up!”

After the call, Shangguan Wan stood on the balcony, looking at the bright stars in the sky with a smile on her beautiful face.

The people around her were gradually finding their own happiness, it was really wonderful!

Four months ago, after she returned to Yukou Border from the Capital, she looked after Little Xingxing, who was having a high fever, for a few days before going down to the SSS group base herself.

Bo Yan did not lie to her, the base had become a mass of destroyed ruins. Even after searching for three whole days, she could not find anything.

She stood at the place where the weaponry had exploded, looking at the peaks of the mountains with tears flowing freely in the wind.

When she returned, she did not shed another tear.

It was not that she did not feel upset, it’s just that she understood her responsibilities.

First of all, she was a soldier. She needed to defend her country and guard the Yukou Border. Secondly, she was a mother and had to take good care of her child. She did not have much time to grieve and feel miserable over her relationship!Apart from the occasional quiet night where she was so sad she could not sleep, she still lived and worked normally.

No one would have known that she had lost her lover four months ago.

…

The next day.

Shangguan Wan went to the mall at noon.

A store assistant greeted her enthusiastically when she entered a man’s clothing store. “Miss, do you have anything to buy?”

“I’m looking for a men’s shirt and jacket.”

“Okay, please follow me.”

The store assistant took Shangguan Wan to a row of jackets and Shangguan Wan nodded politely. “I’ll take a look myself.”“Not a problem, please let me know if you need anything.”

Shangguan Wan picked out a blue jacket and was about to take it down when a slender hand reached out suddenly. “This one’s not bad.”

Shangguan Wan looked at the person beside her. She saw a young and beautiful mixed-blood girl taking the jacket she had picked out.

The girl saw Shangguan Wan’s gaze and she asked with a bright smile, “Big Sister, my boyfriend should like this jacket, can you let me have it?”

The girl had a pair of blue eyes that sparkled like the blue sea, clear and beautiful without a trace of any impurities, leaving a good impression on people.

People always liked beautiful things, even if the same sex repelled each other, Shangguan Wan could not hate this kind of girl who looked lively and beautiful.

She nodded. “It’s alright. If you like it, just buy it. I’ll look around!”

“Big Sister, you’re such a kind person.” The girl smiled and called the store assistant, “Does this fit a person who is 188 cm?”

Shangguan Wan’s heart tightened uncontrollably when she heard ‘188 cm’.Ye Yanfeng was also the same height, so when she heard the numbers, Shangguan Wan was a little sensitive and upset.

The store assistant replied, “This is the largest size in this style. He should be able to wear it.”

Shangguan Wan looked back at the girl and the girl was smiling and nodding. “Then it’s good. And a tie, he likes blue…”

Shangguan Wan’s temples throbbed.

What was wrong with her?

The girl was buying clothes for her boyfriend, why was she connecting it to Ye Yanfeng?

In this world, there was not only him who was 188 centimeters in height and liked the color blue, and besides, he was not around anymore!

Shangguan Wan suppressed the painful emotion surging out from the bottom of her heart and she took a deep breath, going to another row to choose something else.

After Shangguan Wan found the clothing for Captain Jiang, the girl was no longer in the store. It was just a small episode so Shangguan Wan did not take it to heart.

Shangguan Wan bought a cup of coffee when she left the mall. As she was taking the escalator, Shangguan Wan saw that girl again.So she had not left the mall yet.

She was holding the bag of clothes with one hand and her phone on the other.

Shangguan Wan could hear her faintly. “I’m coming out soon, I’ll be about two minutes.”

Shangguan Wan smiled. It must be the girl’s boyfriend coming to pick her up!

Walking out of the mall, Shangguan Wan saw the girl standing on the roadside. Soon after, a black Bentley drove over.

Luxurious cars were seldom seen in Yukou Border. Shangguan Wan could not help but feel curious.

The girl ran over excitedly when she saw the car.

When the girl pulled open the door, Shangguan Wan could see a tall figure sitting at the back. His head was slightly lowered and was smoking. The girl blocked his face when she went into the car.

Shangguan Wan had an inexplicable sense of familiarity,

Her heartbeat sped up.

Her legs seemed to move a few steps forward on their own accord, but very soon, the door was closed by the girl.

Now, the girl had turned sideways and was talking to the man.

But the windows were tinted so Shangguan Wan could not see what was happening inside.

Inexplicably, her heartbeat was beating faster and more intense, as if it was going to jump out of her chest! Shangguan Wan opened her mouth but her throat was dry.

She looked at the car driving away from her sight and her eyes blurred.

Did she miss him too much?

In the past few months, whenever she was walking on the street and saw a figure that looked like him, she would rush over, grabbing the person’s arm. But when the person turned back, she would be extremely disappointed.

“Miss, you dropped your clothes!” The mall security ran over, looking at the slightly distraught Shangguan Wan. “Miss, are you all right?”

Shangguan Wan took the clothes and shook her head. “I’m fine. Thank you.”

Seeming to have thought of something, Shangguan Wan noted down the license plate of the Bentley and sent out a text message. “Help me find out who the owner of this car is.”

When Shangguan Wan returned home, she received a reply. “The owner of the car is a man called Bel. He’s 25 years old this year, single…”

There was more information about the car owner.

Shangguan Wan leaned against the sofa and closed her eyes, thinking that she must be hallucinating. Goodness, she mistook the girl’s boyfriend for him!

If he was still alive, wouldn’t he come to look for her? How could he have a new girlfriend in just a few months?

…

A few days later.

The groundbreaking ceremony of the five-star hotel in the resort was held at the site of the project. Shangguan Wan, a group of government officials and the investors all participated in the ceremony.
