If Brother Zhu hadn’t mentioned this, Chi Shuyan would have almost forgotten about Qi Zhenbai’s calls, and she changed her words right away. “Brother Zhu, why don’t we meet another day? Can you send me back first?”
Zhu Bocheng said, “No rush, I’ll settle this for you. I’ll just give your man a call. Come, let’s go and have a good chat!”
He brought them to a bar. Even though the atmosphere on the first floor was good and the soothing music was relaxing, Zhu Bocheng still booked a private room.
Chi Shuyan had actually just noticed that the little boy next to Brother Zhu was a little familiar, but she couldn’t recognize him right away. Seeing how his eyes sparkled with adoration and never left her, Chi Shuyan felt amused and helpless.
From their conversation earlier, she knew that this was Brother Zhu’s younger uncle’s son. Chi Shuyan was also glad that Brother Zhu’s cousin was fine.
This Zhou Yingbo’s gaze was too scorching, and when Zhu Bocheng saw it, he couldn’t help but tease his cousin. “Yingbo, Sister Shuyan is only three or four years older than you, but no matter how pretty she is, she’s already spoken for. Don’t think about puppy love all the time, kid.”
Chi Shuyan had just taken a sip of water, and she almost sprayed Brother Zhu’s face. Why was he putting her together with an underage boy? That was a crime!
This little boy was Brother Zhu’s cousin. Did Brother Zhu have to play his own cousin like this?
Zhou Yingbo frequently got a lot of confessions from girls, and was usually very calm. When he heard his cousin’s words, his face and neck flushed red. He wanted to retort, but when he met the gaze of the Master in front of him, Zhou Yingbo was so nervous that even his ears turned red. He stuttered, “I… I’m not! Brother!”
Without waiting for Zhu Bocheng to tease him again, Chi Shuyan said, “Brother Zhu, if you joke like that again, don’t blame me, if in front of my m-” Chi Shuyan was originally going to say “my man,” but because of this underage cousin in front of her, she could only change her words. “Don’t blame me if I badmouth you in front of Zhenbai!”
Zhu Bocheng gritted his teeth and refused to give up. “Cousin, I think you’re getting better at using your husband to oppress me!”
But he really fell for it. Who told him to be afraid of Zhenbai, that rascal, the most?
Afraid that Zhenbai’s wife would complain about him, Zhu Bocheng hurriedly surrendered. “Okay, okay, okay, I won’t talk nonsense anymore! Right, Sister Shuyan, hurry and tell me what happened at the school. Is it okay for my cousin to continue studying at No. 5 Junior High in the future?”
Chi Shuyan roughly recounted how a few girls had summoned a few evil spirits in the school, as well as how the evil spirits wanted to use the lives and souls of all the teachers and students in the school to cultivate by using the Blood Sacrifice Array. She tried to be as succinct as possible, and narrated the story without exaggerating.
Although he had never personally experienced it for himself, Zhu Bocheng was still scared out of his wits.
In particular, Zhou Yingbo chimed in from time to time, and talked about how their Principal Wang, as well as the other students and teachers, died.
As he spoke, Zhou Yingbo stared at Chi Shuyan with sparkling, adoring eyes. He said that if she hadn’t appeared in time, everyone in the school would have died.
Seeing that Brother Zhu’s cousin kept praising her like a fanboy, Chi Shuyan was a bit helpless, and took the opportunity to say, “It’s not just me. Speaking of which, it’s really all thanks to those people from Group 9 and Brother Feng today! Brother Zhu, if you want to treat me to a meal, it can’t be just me!”
Seeing that Brother Zhu’s face was too unsightly and pale, Chi Shuyan wanted to lighten the atmosphere.
But that didn’t stop Zhu Bocheng’s body from turning cold with fright. Only then did he realize that this kid had been one step away from the gates of hell. His teasing expression just now had completely disappeared, and his hand holding the teacup trembled.
Chi Shuyan consoled him when she saw this. “Brother Zhu, the school is fine, don’t worry! The teachers and resources at No. 5 Junior High are good. It’s good for Little Cousin to continue studying there!”
