School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 1174: Chapter 1260: Searching for My Wife in the Dead of Night

After Chen Nan left the hotel, he neither flew nor took a taxi, but walked on the street instead.

After all, it was only a few hundred meters away. He walked forward step by step, recalling the events of the past two days, and the deep guilt he felt towards Hua Xian’er was finally somewhat alleviated.

”If only everything could start over, and I weren’t your father’s killer, how nice it would be.”

Chen Nan sighed and continued to walk forward. As he inadvertently looked up, he suddenly saw a beautiful figure ahead, casting a long shadow under the streetlight, and it was so familiar.

”Yu Ting!”

Chen Nan’s eyes lit up, and he took big strides to chase after her.

But to his surprise, even though he accelerated, Han Yuting’s steps ahead remained slow, and the distance between them did not close even a little.

How could this be?

Chen Nan rubbed his eyes, confirmed that he was not mistaken, and continued to chase forward, shouting Han Yuting’s name.

Yet, doing so only elicited strange looks from the passing pedestrians around, while the figure ahead did not turn back, and the distance between them remained about a hundred meters.

”Yu Ting, wait for me.”

Chen Nan shouted, even employing his Qinggong to chase forward, but he still could not close the distance between them.

As he saw a bend appearing ahead, with many landscaping trees that could completely block his view, Han Yuting entered the bend, disappearing from Chen Nan’s sight due to the trees’ obstruction.

Chen Nan darted through the bend in the blink of an eye like a gust of wind.

But when he looked forward again, the figure had completely disappeared. Apart from hurried pedestrians passing by, that graceful silhouette seemed as if it had never existed.

Chen Nan couldn’t help but recall that last time on the pedestrian street, while shopping with Yi Xiaoyu and Chu Wenrou, he seemed to have seen Han Yuting’s figure too. But later, when he called her, she said she was at Yanjing University, miles away, and hadn’t been to Ninghai City at all.

Chen Nan scanned the surroundings and continued chasing forward for another thousand meters, but he still couldn’t find that figure.

”What on earth is happening?”

Chen Nan muttered to himself, unable to fathom it, and took out his phone to dial Han Yuting’s number.

The phone got through, but the voice on the other end said the call was temporarily unanswered.

Chen Nan hung up and called again.

He called three times in a row, but no one answered.

Chen Nan was becoming anxious, wondering why no one was answering the phone. Despite it already being past eleven at night, even if she were asleep, the ringtone should wake her up, right?

Chen Nan couldn’t help but let his mind wander.

There’s a saying in the world that after a person dies, their soul leaves the body and goes to the places they visited during their lifetime to collect footprints. If a recognized person sees them, no matter how much they call out, the soul won’t respond and will soon vanish before their eyes.

”Could something have happened to her?”

The more Chen Nan thought about it, the more anxious he became, and he hurriedly put away his phone and flew towards Yanjing at full speed.

Even though it was thousands of miles away, for Chen Nan nowadays, it was merely a journey of ten to twenty minutes.

At half-past eleven at night, Chen Nan arrived at Yanjing University.

Though it was a century-old prestigious school, he had never been there before. Once he rushed onto the campus, the first place he wanted to find, naturally, was Han Yuting’s dormitory.

However, as an unfamiliar place to him, how could he possibly know where Han Yuting’s dormitory was?

And now it was late at night, with very few people moving about on the campus. Chen Nan finally spotted two girls, intending to inquire, but to his surprise, they turned out to be two drunks, seemingly just back from a bar, who knew nothing.

”Looking at how peaceful the campus is, it doesn’t seem like anything’s happened. Yu Ting should be alright,” Chen Nan comforted himself, picking up his phone to continue dialing her number, but there was still no answer.

”The campus is so large, if I were to search dormitory by dormitory, I’d never finish by sunrise. It seems there’s only one way.”

Chen Nan took a deep breath, used his Inner Strength, and shouted, ”Yu Ting, where are you?”

The shout, like a thunderclap, woke everyone up throughout Yanjing University, whether students or teachers. Even the residents outside the school were not spared.

This shout echoed across half of Yanjing City.

”Yu Ting, I can’t find you. If you hear me, could you come to the track field?” Chen Nan shouted again, his voice no less powerful than thunder, causing the glass windows of the school buildings to vibrate.

Following this, a wave of curses emanated from the dormitory buildings.

Undoubtedly, they were cursing this inconsiderate guy who disturbed others’ sleep in the middle of the night without any sense of public morality.

”Damn, just wooing a girl, does it have to be this grand?”

”What kind of amplifier is this, louder than the school’s broadcast.”

Chen Nan faintly heard some of the scolding, but he didn’t mind, couldn’t be bothered to respond, so long as he could find Han Yuting, knowing she was alright, he would be relieved.

Not long after, several figures came striding over.

They seemed aggressive, so Chen Nan didn’t want to clash with them and ran out of the track field, hiding behind a nearby landscaping tree.

Among those people were students and teachers, who patrolled the track field, and after failing to find the rascal Chen Nan, they turned and left.

Chen Nan emerged from the trees but still didn’t see Han Yuting coming over.

”Could she really be in trouble? If she heard me, even if she didn’t come out, at least she should have called me back!” Chen Nan grew more anxious, running towards the nearest dormitory building to randomly grab someone and inquire about the situation.

However, as he passed the landscaped lawn, he saw the familiar figure running toward him on the walkway.

Chen Nan finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly strode forward to greet her.

Han Yuting saw him running over, so she stopped, still dressed in her pajamas, and looked at Chen Nan with a smile. Under the moonlight, she was so delicate, beautiful, and charming.

Chen Nan rushed over and hugged her soft body, gently stroking the long hair on her back: ”Yu Ting, are you alright? How do you feel, are you hurt?”

Han Yuting was full of confusion; she had never seen this man so anxious about her.

She gently pushed Chen Nan away, looked into his eyes, and asked puzzled, ”You fool, what happened today, why are you talking nonsense for no reason? I’ve been studying at school and haven’t gone out at all, how could I be hurt?”

”It’s good that you’re okay, as long as you’re okay, you scared me.” Chen Nan hugged her again.

Han Yuting asked, puzzled, ”What exactly happened?”

Chen Nan held her tight, and only after a while did he reluctantly let go, touching her cheek: ”Remember that thing I mentioned over the phone last time? I saw someone who looked very much like you, and then in the blink of an eye, she vanished.”
