Chapter 541 - 542 - Miao Qingqing’s Initiative
Song Xiaodong made this decision out of helplessness; the other party had failed twice in a row, clearly aware that they were well-prepared on this side. To ambush them again was now impossible.
However, Song Xiaodong had also guessed something: the other party’s target must be the person holding the badge. The badge itself isn’t that important, otherwise, they would have captured Feng Kexin first and then searched her for the badge.
The fact that they were only after Feng Kexin’s life was enough to illustrate the point.
This also indicated that the person possessing the badge might represent a certain identity, and perhaps even wield certain power. The other side didn’t want them to have this power, which is why they went straight for the kill.
Song Xiaodong had pondered another question: since they were all sent out initially, there surely were supporters. Was there really no one stepping forward to protect them now?
So Song Xiaodong changed his strategy. Shen Ning made a deliberate appearance by Feng Kexin’s side, at the very least, signaling to the other party that a new force had intervened, seemingly to muddy the waters.
No matter who was on which side, Song Xiaodong had to clarify it, only then could he be at ease. This state of complete ignorance truly irked him.
On the way back, Shen Ning drove, with Feng Kexin and Song Xiaodong sitting in the back. Feng Kexin leaned on Song Xiaodong’s shoulder, appearing somewhat fragile.
Song Xiaodong felt it cruel for Feng Kexin to endure such ordeals and said, "Doesn’t it feel tough? How about this: I send you to a safe place where they can’t find you. In a different environment, you could just focus on your studies or whatever you should be doing."
"No!" Feng Kexin shook her head firmly, saying, "Brother, I’ve decided I need to clear things up. I can’t stand not even knowing who I am."
