829: I Scared You

I Scared You

Chancellor Wen had arranged to meet at a well-hidden teahouse. After Ah Lu parked the car, Jiang Yao brought Ah Lu and Da Ke with her and was led to the private room.2

As soon as she entered the private room, Jiang Yao greeted Chancellor Wen. The man she had seen in his office stood up as he nudged the woman beside him.

The young woman sat with her back toward Jiang Yao, so she only saw the girl's slender back. She had gorgeous long, straight hair, and her jet-black ponytail hung loosely over her shoulders.

However, when the girl stood up and turned to look at her, Jiang Yao was shocked when she saw the young woman's face.

"Did I scare you?" Jiang Yao's expression made the woman feel helpless. She quickly turned around and apologized. "Sorry, I didn't mean to do that."

"It's okay; it's okay." Jiang Yao quickly shook her head and followed Chancellor Wen to sit across from the lady and her father.

Jiang Yao had heard from the chancellor that the woman had been a victim in a fire. However, based on her judgment, the woman's face must have been injured by something corrosive like sulfuric acid. Half of her face was severely wounded, and Jiang Yao had not been mentally prepared to see that. She was shocked when she saw her at first glance.

Other than the scars on her face, the woman's neck and arms were also severely injured. She must have subconsciously reached out to cover them when it happened. Therefore, only one side of her face was affected, followed by the other side of her arm and neck.

Fortunately, only one side of her face was injured. Her nose, lips, and other facial features were still intact.

"This is a student from our school. Her name is Jiang Yao. If you had read the newspaper in Nanjiang City, you should have heard of her. She is a brave student who has saved other people's lives. I thought she only knew the Divine Doctor. Today, I found out that she is actually his student. So, let her take a look first. If we need the Divine Doctor, then perhaps we can ask her to introduce us to him," Chancellor Wen explained to his old friend.

"Jiang Yao, I'll have to trouble you then! This is my daughter. Her name is Zheng Yi." It did not matter if Jiang Yao was the Divine Doctor's friend or a student; there was no disdain or pity in her eyes when she saw his daughter that day. That was enough for the father to thank Jiang Yao.

He had brought his daughter to see many doctors and other experts after her accident. Sometimes Zheng Yi would shout and yell at them, especially those who looked at her with pity in their eyes. He knew that his daughter was a proud woman; she did not like it when other people looked at her like that. That kind of pity would make her cry even more miserably.

"Chancellor Wen told me that Miss Zheng used to be a police officer?" Jiang Yao asked Zheng Yi as she used the system to scan the lady's condition. If she did not use the medical system, she would not be able to do anything about Zheng Yi's situation.

Even though there was positive progress in the plastic surgery industry, they were still in a relatively backward era. Furthermore, her injuries were quite extensive. Even if the plastic surgery industry had developed further, it would not be much use to her. It would not be able to change much.

Zheng Yi did not expect Jiang Yao would ask about that, so she paused for a moment before she said, "I used to be in the city's Police Crime Squad."
