Chapter 158 Occasional Prosopagnosia



In the daily necessities area, Xu Da almost screamed when he saw the mats and mosquito nets.

Their staff dormitory is the low building next to the hotel. Because there are so few employees, each person has his or her own room.

The accommodation conditions are far superior to those in hotel rooms.

There is no mattress and the quilt is torn...

There was only a hard wooden bed in the room, with a few newspapers underneath, which made my back and waist ache when I slept on it.

However, it is the end of the world now, and having a place to live is already good enough.

Xu Da never complained about anything.

Now that there are conditions for improvement, he grinned and smiled like a fool.

Put everything the dormitory needs into the shopping cart.

Since one cart couldn’t fit all the items, Xu Da went back to the door, pushed another cart over, and continued shopping.

He took all the medicines he had. He didn't need any clothes, as the hotel would provide him with work clothes.

But Xu Da took a fancy to the soft and comfortable sports shoes. He stood guard for eight hours every day, and wearing these shoes would not make his feet so tired.

The sneakers were all the same color, so he picked out a pair in his size and went back to the checkout counter to pay.

Xu Da, who had been longing for the watermelon all afternoon, of course bought it.

The temperature is not too high now, so the watermelon can be kept for at least a week without being cut.

He took a chilled watermelon, which he would cut and eat when he got back later, and also took five ordinary watermelons.

Although it is not as delicious as when it is frozen, it has a high water content and is also very good for replenishing water every day.

After paying the bill, Xu Da looked at the pile of supplies and fell into deep thought.

There are so many, it’s not easy for him to carry them all by himself.

Fortunately, the hotel is very close and can be reached in a few steps.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to move the things to the hotel lobby first, ask his colleagues to help look after them, and then move them back to the dormitory in several batches.

Pei Wangnian put away his pocket watch. There were five or six more bodyguards following him than last time.

As soon as he came in, he blocked the aisle in front of the cashier counter.

The bodyguards were all tall and strong, with broad backs and sturdy arms. Jiang He, sitting there, looked like a weak and helpless little chick.

"You guys... aren't here to cause trouble?"

Pei Wangnian gave the bodyguard a look, and the next second, a large bag of gold bars appeared on the table.

"I want to buy two hundred of the watermelons you have outside."

Although he could sell one-fifth of the watermelon at once, Jiang He didn't open his eyes to "Points" and calmly pointed to the electronic screen on the side.

"Shuguang Supermarket has a rule that food cannot be wasted."

Pei Wangnian raised his eyebrows slightly: "I have quite a few people under my command. I'll give them some, it won't be wasted."

Hearing this, Jiang He quickly moved the black box in front of him and said, "Please apply for a card first, then swipe it."

Pei Wangnian reached out and applied for a points card, then loaded all the gold bars into it, totaling 50,000 points, most of which he used to buy watermelons.

He is the most extravagant customer since Shuguang Supermarket opened, no doubt about it.

Hearing the sound of points being credited, Jiang He's smile deepened.

"There are other products in the supermarket. You can go over there and buy them."

Pei Wangnian lowered his eyes, and played with an exquisite and unique pocket watch with his slender fingers.

"Boss Jiang, I want to ask you for some information."

Jiang He blinked calmly, "What news?"

Pei Wangnian stared at her straight in the eyes and said three words: "Zhou Tangyao."

The corners of Jiang He's mouth twitched. Was it her who had lost her memory, or was it Pei Wangnian who had lost his memory?

Didn’t he ask about it last time?

As if seeing Jiang He's doubt, Pei Wangnian spoke in a cold tone, slowly saying:

"I heard that you've been to the Nanyang base, where the Zhou family is stationed. You know Zhou Yanze, right?"

Jiang He nodded: "Yeah, I vaguely knew him."

“He is my brother-in-law, my wife’s brother.

It is very likely that he hid Yaoyao and changed her name and identity, so I couldn't find her whereabouts.

So, you may have seen her before, but you just don’t know her real name.”

After saying that, Pei Wangnian opened the pocket watch and handed it to Jiang He.

"Look carefully to see if you have seen her before."

After pretending to look at it carefully for several times, Jiang He frowned and shook his head decisively.

"To be honest, I have occasional face blindness."

Pei Wangnian had thought of every answer, but he had not expected this one.

His knuckles turned white as he gripped the pocket watch, making a crackling sound.

"Boss Jiang, are you kidding?"

There was a hint of danger in his tone.

But Jiang He is not threatened by anyone. As long as she doesn't want to say it, no one can force her.

"Sir, your wife ran away, so you go outside to look for her. What's the point of keeping an eye on my small supermarket?

You can believe what I say or not."

After leaving last time, Pei Wangnian asked someone to collect information about Shuguang Supermarket.

The rumors from Hua'an Base were the most outrageous. They said that Jiang He was a god who had descended to earth and could wipe out the bandit's nest without lifting a finger.

Even he couldn't move this person.

It is simply impossible to use force to make her tell the truth.

Supermarkets and Jiang He are both very strange.

Any rash action would only make him end up like those fools in the bandit's den, dying without even knowing how.

Pei Wangnian narrowed his eyes and suppressed the anger in his heart.

"Boss Jiang, I've been secretly searching for Yaoyao's whereabouts. I don't know how many people out there want to kill me. Her whereabouts and whereabouts cannot be revealed to anyone.

I hope you can keep what I just said confidential."

If he directly posted the portrait in various major bases and offered a high reward, he would be able to get news about Yaoyao in no time.

But he couldn't do that.

If his enemies discovered that Pei Wangnian's wife was alone outside, they would definitely use all means to capture her and torture her to death.

Jiang He raised his eyebrows slightly, looking a little surprised. "I didn't expect you to care about your wife so much."

Pei Wangnian's eyes were extremely serious. "I love her, so of course I have to consider her safety."

Jiang He pursed his lips and said sarcastically, "You can actually speak human language with this mouth of yours.

When she was around, you didn't treat her well, and only regretted it after she left?

Do you know what this is called?"

If anyone else dared to curse him in person, Pei Wangnian would have raised his gun and shot that person dead.

But the one in front of him couldn't be killed even if he wanted to.

Moreover, he did not find Jiang He's scolding harsh at all, but instead felt that it made sense.

Pei Wangnian's lips tightened as he replied inexplicably, "What's your name?"

Jiang He: "Belated affection is cheaper than grass."

Pei Wangnian's face darkened, his eyes becoming even more determined: "I have always loved her. No matter where she goes, I will definitely find her and make sure she can never run away again."
