Wei Xiao and Chi Lingyan’s faces changed. They looked at each other with grave expressions.
Wei Xiao had been about to leave, but when he thought of this matter, and the fact that something had happened in the military district again, he felt even more uneasy. Thinking of Yan Yan’s method of removing the corpse poison, he subconsciously asked Chi Lingyan with a frown, “Old Chi, can Yan Yan take a look at this?”
As he spoke, Wei Xiao recounted how Chi Shuyan had dealt with the corpse poison in the ticket inspector yesterday, and how Fang Qingtian had fainted from anger after Chi Shuyan defended her father.
Wei Ting had already told him yesterday, and when he heard Old Wei’s words, Chi Lingyan’s face changed drastically again. How could Wei Xiao not understand what Old Chi was worried about? He hurriedly said, “Don’t worry, the Fang family won’t dare make things difficult for Yan Yan. Since she can treat the corpse poison, how can Commander Lu and Commissar Shen watch the Fang family make trouble for Yan Yan?”
Moreover, Yan Yan now had the Qi family behind her. If the Fang family dared to come look for her, the Qi family would definitely stir up trouble. Master Fang would probably immediately turn around and apologize to Yan Yan politely.
Wei Xiao wasn’t worried at all.
He was only worried that the matter of the living dead would escalate.
Only then did Chi Lingyan relax. As long as this matter with the living dead wasn’t resolved, he wouldn’t be at ease. He was even more afraid that the thing was hiding in the military district. It would cause fright and unrest if it suddenly bit someone.
Chi Lingyan now knew that his daughter had some understanding of things like the living dead and ghosts. He nodded. “Let’s talk inside!”
The two went in. Because of the living dead, Chi Lingyan forgot to glare at Qi Zhenbai. When Qi Zhenbai saw his father-in-law, he hurriedly got up, pulled out a chair, and took the initiative to ladle a bowl of porridge for his father-in-law as well as for Father Wei.
Father Wei was flattered and alarmed as he hurriedly and gratefully accepted the bowl. “Thank you, Chief Qi!”
Qi Zhenbai’s lips curved up and he said, “Commander Wei, just call me by my name from now on. We’re all on the same side!”
Father Wei’s lips trembled.
Qi Zhenbai could tell that his father-in-law had serious business with Commander Wei. He narrowed his eyes and said, “Commander Wei, don’t worry about me. Just treat me like I don’t exist, and go on with your business!”
As Qi Zhenbai spoke, he saw that his father-in-law’s bowl was already empty, and immediately said, “Dad, I’ll get you another bowl!”
With that, he took Father Chi’s bowl and ladled more porridge for him.
Father Chi’s face couldn’t help but twitch again when this kid naturally called him “Dad.” Was this solicitous Qi kid in front of him really that outstanding Major General Qi?
Father Chi could tell that this man wasn’t someone who made conversation easily. At the end of the day, this was all for his daughter. Father Chi couldn’t help but look at his daughter, who was eating porridge opposite him. Chi Shuyan immediately smiled at her father.
Father Chi had to admit that his daughter had indeed grown up and already knew how to help some stinking brat curry favor with him.
It was a good thing his daughter was still young. Even if she really wanted to get married, she would still have to wait a few more years. Thinking this, Father Chi relaxed. His expression also lightened up a lot when he looked at the solicitous man next to him.
Putting aside his own bias, Father Chi had to admit that the man in front of him was indeed a dragon among dragons and phoenixes. He had seen a lot of the world, but had never seen a more outstanding man in the last few decades. However, Father Chi still wasn’t pleased as he felt that the man was too good-looking and attracted too many peach blossoms. At that moment, he couldn’t be bothered to think about this Qi kid and his daughter anymore, for fear of getting annoyed. He got straight to the point. “Yan Yan, a bunch of chickens in the military district have been sucked dry of blood. When you have time, go take a look.. See if it has anything to do with the living dead biting people and sucking their blood.”
