Chapter 360 - 360: If I Can't Afford to Provoke You, Can't I at Least Avoid You?

Jiang Xinghai slipped into the office building.

The woman with the scar on her brow followed closely behind. She frowned upon seeing the empty lobby and dashed toward the stairwell.

"Are you looking for me?"

Suddenly, Jiang Xinghai appeared at the entrance to the stairwell, a hint of amusement in his eyes.

"You spotted me?"

The woman with the scar on her brow frowned again.

'I was so careful, but he still spotted me.'

"Why are you sneaking around and following me?" Jiang Xinghai asked, his gaze raking over the woman's figure with a hint of frivolity.

"You'd best not look at me with such insolent eyes." The woman with the scar on her brow grew stern, an oppressive aura rising from her.

Jiang Xinghai laughed. "Interesting. How I look at you is my prerogative. Are you going to control my eyes, too?"

"Hmph!"

The woman with the scar on her brow could only turn to the side.

But her posture, though she wore a blazer, only served to accentuate her impressive figure, which was stunning from every angle.

The open collar of her white blouse, in particular, revealed an eye-catching line of cleavage.

"Your figure is passable, I suppose. And that scar… what a pity."

As he spoke, Jiang Xinghai reached out, intending to brush the stray hairs from the woman's forehead, but she swiftly caught his wrist.

The scarred woman flung his arm away. "Divine Doctor Jiang, my figure doesn't need your critique. I didn't realize you were so crass. Stay away from me! Otherwise, I wouldn't mind making you lose your…"

She didn't finish the sentence, instead glaring fiercely at a certain part of Jiang Xinghai's anatomy.

Jiang Xinghai couldn't help but feel a chill between his legs.

'This woman isn't just arrogant, her methods are this extreme?'

'I can't even look at her?'

'Does she think she's that precious?'

"Forget it. If I can't afford to provoke you, I can at least avoid you," Jiang Xinghai said, turning to leave.

"You, wait."

But the scarred woman strode forward, blocking Jiang Xinghai's path.

"Hey, you're the one who stopped me." Jiang Xinghai's eyes gleamed as his gaze greedily swept over her body.

The scarred woman could only cross her arms over her chest, her eyes flashing with anger. "Divine Doctor Jiang, Jiang Xinghai, Little Chef… you've hidden yourself quite well."

"What do you mean?" Jiang Xinghai feigned ignorance.

"Do you really not know what I mean?" the scarred woman pressed, her tone accusatory.

"Questioning me again and again on my own turf? You've certainly got my attention. Now, tell me who you are." Jiang Xinghai's expression turned cold.

"Is it so important who I am?"

The scarred woman lifted her chin. "You'd better answer me first, and truthfully. Do you know the Disguise Technique? Is Little Chef just you in disguise?"

Even though Jiang Xinghai had killed the Ninth-Grade Great Venerable Wanyan Xiong while disguised as Little Chef, she wasn't afraid.

After all, her power was greater than Wanyan Xiong's. She was at the Peak of Nine Great Venerable!

"Here to avenge Wanyan Xiong?" Jiang Xinghai smiled thoughtfully.

"Answer me first!" the scarred woman barked.

"Don't put on such high-and-mighty airs, especially not in front of me." Jiang Xinghai had met plenty of arrogant people.

But this was the first time he had encountered a woman this brazen.

"Are you threatening me?" The scarred woman gave a cold smile. She paid no mind to his gaze, instead looking outside the office building. "Do you think I would stand here talking to you without some kind of leverage?"

"Don't tell me you have a way to threaten my friends?" Jiang Xinghai also looked outside.

In his line of sight, Shen Lingxue, Su Yanyun, Yu Lina, and Chuchu were all chatting happily on a red platform.

'Unless… Chuchu is this scarred woman's accomplice!'

'Which means this woman with the scar is from the Black Cloak!'

"Are you sure you won't answer me?"

At that, the scarred woman's gaze returned to Jiang Xinghai.

Without another word, Jiang Xinghai shot out his left arm and pulled the woman into his embrace. "I'm not answering. What are you going to do about it?"

"Let me go!"

The scarred woman couldn't stand being touched by men. Her eyes flew wide with rage as she tried to struggle free.

Worse, his hand was right on top of the one place she was most sensitive about!

This humiliating and infuriating moment completely crossed her line!

But!

Despite her immense combat prowess, she was utterly helpless in Jiang Xinghai's grip.

"Could it be… you've already taken that step?" The scarred woman's expression changed drastically as she stared at Jiang Xinghai in disbelief.

"First, tell me if you're a member of the Black Cloak," Jiang Xinghai said, his expression grim.

The scarred woman gritted her teeth. "That's right. I'm with the Black Cloak."

"Chu Xinyue's superior?" Jiang Xinghai asked.

"You can call me Leng Ning."

"Leng Ning? You certainly are cold enough for the name."

Jiang Xinghai pushed Leng Ning away and flashed a frivolous smile. "Oh, your… Ahem. They're a bit asymmetrical, one big and one small. If you were to submit to me, I could help you restore them. Free of charge."
