637: Targeted

Targeted

Qin Miao's face twitched. He didn't know what to say to them.1

Was he supposed to tell them that he had lost to a young girl at such an old age? He felt too ashamed to do so.

Speaking of which, it was also his fault. Why did he mention this to his family before he left?

In the end, he could only sit down resentfully. The sweat from his anger had already soaked his clothes. He said gloomily, "I wasn't the one who saved Sheng Hanjing."

"Ah? What?" Qin Yuan hid behind her parents with a look of disbelief. It wasn't her grandfather who saved him. Could it be…

Her eyes darted around, and she could only think of one person. "Could it be Ming Qi?"

Actually, compared to her grandfather, she wanted to study medicine from Ming Qi in the future. However, her grandfather and Ming Qi were arch-enemies. Sometimes, she also blamed her grandfather for this. Why did he have to go against Ming Qi?

"No."

"Then…" Qin Yuan could not think of anyone else. Her parents also racked their brains but could not think of anyone.

Qin Miao waved his sleeves. "Anyway, you don't have to ask anymore."

However, this matter was like a mystery that lingered in Qin Yuan's heart, making her wary.

If the person who helped Sheng Hanjing wasn't her grandfather, then that person's medical skills must be above her grandfather's. Since that person wasn't her grandfather's sworn enemy, she could become that master's apprentice, no?

That was right. Judging from Grandpa's dejected expression, he must be too unwilling to admit that this person's skills far surpassed his.

She had to find that person!

Qin Yuan clenched her fists. She was determined to do it.

At this moment, Sheng Yang, who was still unaware that she had been 'targeted' by her enemy, was in the library. She stood at the front desk and asked the librarian, "Do you guys have 'Stewart Talk'?"

"Wait a minute. Let me check." The librarian checked. "No, we don't."

Sheng Yang furrowed her brows. "Then do you have 'Excerpts From Ancient Recipes'?"

The librarian checked again. "No."

Sheng Yang's patience was running low. "Help me look up 'Voynich Manuscript'."

His fingers tapped on the keyboard, but there was still nothing. The librarian couldn't help but use his phone to search up the books that Sheng Yang had mentioned earlier. After checking, he was a little speechless. Then, he looked at Sheng Yang. "Junior, are you kidding me?"

How could such books appear in their university's library?

Oh, librarians were usually students who worked part-time.

Sheng Yang ignored him. She had no intention of doing self-study. She could do it anywhere else. Her main purpose today was to look for books, but it seemed like she wouldn't be able to find anything.

"Junior, wait a minute," the librarian suddenly called out after her.

"What's the matter?" Sheng Yang glanced at him, and her words were concise, leaving him stunned.

Although this junior was a girl with outstanding looks, she was too cool. She was so cool that it made his legs go weak. He could not help but stutter, "I don't know about the first two books that you mentioned, but I know where the last book, 'Voynich Manuscript', is."

"Where?" Sheng Yang's eyes lit up.

The librarian scratched his head. A handsome man like him was standing in front of her, but in the eyes of this girl, he was not even 1% as charming as an inanimate object. However, he still answered truthfully, "Huaxia University. My friends from Huaxia University told me that their university library has one."

Sheng Yang fell into a deep silence. Suddenly, she regretted it. If she had known earlier, she would have gone to Huaxia University.
