The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 600: Discovering the Truth

Meanwhile,

when it was night in the capital of Country M, due to the time difference, it was daytime in Capital City of Huaxia Country.

As Wang Li and others had withdrawn from the Soldier King Group, the number of members in the group had drastically decreased. As an important department of Huaxia Country, the high-level officials decided after discussion to inject some fresh blood into the Soldier King Group. Elite personnel from military districts across the country gathered in Capital City, and this infusion of new blood was to be selected from this group.

These elite personnel arranged by Huaxia Country fought each other, and the top sixty were able to join the Soldier King Group. Considering that there were about a thousand elites participating in this selection, one can imagine how high the elimination rate was.

The competition was held at the Soldier King Base, with almost all the senior leaders of Huaxia attending, including Ye Zhenhong, the Elder Ye, Elder Wu from Wu Anguo, Elder Bai Hongfang, and others.

Bai Xueling also pleaded with her grandfather, Bai Hongfang, to take her to watch today’s selection for the Soldier King Group. In recent days, the image of Ye Chenfeng filled her mind, constantly overlapping with the masked man who had saved her in the Taiping Mountain Range. This left Bai Xueling tossing and turning every night, sometimes fantasizing that Ye Chenfeng might just be the masked man who saved her. She occasionally fell into a reflective state when alone.

This feeling was like an addiction, causing Bai Xueling to sink deeper and deeper. She kept telling herself that the person she liked was the masked man who had saved her in the Taiping Mountain Range, and that this man couldn’t possibly be Ye Chenfeng.

Therefore, when Bai Xueling learned that the Soldier King Group was selecting new members, she begged her grandfather, Bai Hongfang, to bring her here to the Soldier King Base. She wanted to take this opportunity to interact with the members of the Soldier King Group to see if she could find out who the masked man who saved her was.

A temporary ring was set up in the training ground at the Soldier King Base, with spectator stands also constructed around it. Wu Anguo watched the combat on the ring and said to Ye Zhenhong beside him, "Zhenhong, why is that boy Chenfeng always out of sight? Where has he gone this time?"

Speaking of Ye Chenfeng, Elder Ye sighed helplessly, "That boy Chenfeng acts without consulting me, his grandfather, and his phone is always off. Later, I called Dongjian and found out from him that Chenfeng had gone to Country M for business. It seems even Dongjian isn’t very clear about the details. I’m worried sick about that boy every day."

"Zhenhong, Chenfeng is a restless one. I believe that no matter what he encounters, he has the ability to protect himself. What we can do is just watch as Chenfeng gradually grows up," said Elder Wu, patting Elder Ye’s shoulder.

"I say, Zhenhong and An Guo, can you two not flaunt in front of me? Chenfeng was supposed to be my grandson-in-law, but I, the old fool, let you, Wu Anguo, pick up a great bargain. Now, thinking about it makes me feel like spitting blood; Chenfeng is such an ideal candidate for a grandson-in-law!" lamented Elder Bai Hongfang, sitting beside Elder Ye and Elder Wu.

"Hongfang, be content! Although Chenfeng is not your grandson-in-law, he has saved your life twice and also saved the Bais. If you set your sights on Chenfeng again, don’t blame me, Wu Anguo, for turning my back on you," Elder Wu said very seriously.

Elder Bai waved his hands repeatedly, "An Guo, you’re judging my noble intentions with your petty mind. I’ve already said that we should let the young people handle their own affairs, and I won’t interfere anymore."

Bai Xueling sat beside Elder Bai, listening to the conversation between Elder Ye, Elder Wu, and Elder Bai. When she heard that Ye Chenfeng had gone to Country M, she could not help but frown and thought, "Ye Chenfeng, can’t you just settle down? Don’t you know that many people are worried about you?"

Without realizing it, the image of Ye Chenfeng’s mock-worthy expression appeared in Bai Xueling’s mind, and she unconsciously worried for him. When she caught herself, she pinched her thigh hard and scolded herself silently, "Bai Xueling, have you lost your mind? Why are you worried about Ye Chenfeng? Of course, it’s because Ye Chenfeng has helped the Bais multiple times; worrying about him is only natural, it must be for this reason, surely."

Bai Xueling comforted herself silently, while the exciting fights on the ring failed to catch her attention. Suddenly, she saw Zhao Fei, the current commander of the Soldier King Group, stand up from the spectator stands and walk towards a building inside the Soldier King Base.

This was a great opportunity for Bai Xueling as she hurriedly told her grandfather, Bai Hongfang, that she needed to go to the restroom and quickly followed Zhao Fei’s figure.

A few days earlier, the broken bone in Zhao Fei’s leg had gradually healed, and he could barely walk. Ever since he saw that Wang Li and others had all surpassed him in strength, he couldn’t balance his emotions. He had been very depressed these days. Originally, he was the most powerful in the Soldier King Group, and those who had left the group like Wang Li couldn’t compare to him. However, in just a short time, he had been left far behind by people like Wang Li.

"Zhao Commander, wait a moment," Bai Xueling called out immediately after leaving the dueling area.

Hearing her, Zhao Fei turned around, looking at Bai Xueling with confusion. He didn’t understand why Bai Xueling would stop him—they didn’t have much interaction.

"Zhao Commander, I want to ask you something. The masked man who saved me in the Taiping Mountain Range, who is he? I hope you can tell me," Bai Xueling said to Zhao Fei.

Zhao Fei had also participated in the operation to rescue Bai Xueling in the Taiping Mountain Range. Of course, he knew that the masked man she was referring to was Ye Chenfeng. After pausing for a moment, he answered, "I don’t know."

It was precisely because of Zhao Fei’s momentary pause that Bai Xueling guessed he definitely knew the identity of the masked man; he just didn’t want to tell her. She immediately blocked Zhao Fei’s path: "Zhao Commander, please tell me the identity of the masked man who saved me. Otherwise, I will keep following you."

Faced with Bai Xueling’s persistence, and now harboring a great displeasure towards Ye Chenfeng, Zhao Fei said impatiently, "Fine, I’ll tell you. The masked man who saved you was Ye Chenfeng. Now, can you please stop blocking my way?"

Ye Chenfeng?

When this name entered Bai Xueling’s ears, it struck her like a bolt from the blue. She froze on the spot, memories of Ye Chenfeng and the masked man overlapping more and more in her mind. Shaking her head vigorously, she said, "You’re lying. How could Ye Chenfeng possibly be the masked man who saved me?"

"Believe it or not, that’s up to you." Zhao Fei walked past Bai Xueling, not wanting to mention Ye Chenfeng anymore.

This time, Bai Xueling did not stop him. Watching Zhao Fei’s retreating figure, she muttered to herself, "Ye Chenfeng? Ye Chenfeng? Ye Chenfeng? Could he really be the masked man who saved me in the Taiping Mountain Range?"

Memories of Ye Chenfeng flashed through Bai Xueling’s mind like a slideshow. It began with her initial thought that Ye Chenfeng was a fool, to reacquainting herself with him in Tianhai, to the numerous times Ye Chenfeng saved her and helped the Bais out of trouble. The final image froze on a recent moment when she asked Ye Chenfeng if he knew of a man in the Soldier King Group who wore a mask. His answer was very straightforward: he didn’t know.

Everything she had been through with Ye Chenfeng was so clear. In fact, Ye Chenfeng’s figure had already unconsciously walked into Bai Xueling’s heart, and she knew that he must be the masked man who saved her before. Zhao Fei had no reason to create this lie to deceive her.

Bai Xueling suddenly felt very upset, deeply upset, as tears gradually reddened her eyes. She really hadn’t expected that it was Ye Chenfeng who had saved her in the Taiping Mountain Range. After learning the truth, she felt overwhelmed.

Standing under the warm sunshine, at that moment, Bai Xueling’s tears flowed like a flood. (To be continued.
