Chi Shuyan no longer had a good impression of the Shen family. However, since Shen Rongyin had saved her father, she couldn’t say much to the Shen family now. Nevertheless, she didn’t want to see her father really become involved with the Shen family. She said, “Uncle, Aunt, can I take a look at Miss Shen?”
“What would a little girl like you know?” Mother Shen was already taking her anger out on Chi Lingyan. Seeing Chi Lingyan’s daughter speak up at that moment, Mother Shen couldn’t help but be a little prejudiced. Could this immature little girl understand what she was feeling? She would just make things worse. Mother Shen voiced her thoughts, and her words were very unpleasant.
Chi Lingyan’s expression changed. He was indebted to the Shen family, but that didn’t mean that his daughter was. Chi Lingyan was about to speak, when Qi Zhenbai’s cold voice suddenly rang out. “Commissar Shen, it was in fact Miss Shen who stepped forward of her own accord to fend off the living dead for my father-in-law. It wasn’t like my father-in-law used a gun to force Miss Shen to do so, right? Besides, why was Miss Shen so sure that my father-in-law, a soldier who has been in the army for decades, needed her to sacrifice herself, and that she wouldn’t drag my father-in-law down instead?”
The faces of Commissar Shen, Mother Shen, and the only son of the Shen family all changed at Qi Zhenbai’s extremely heartless and poisonous words. Mother Shen’s face turned ugly and she was about to retort, but Commissar Shen immediately stopped her and then had his son take Mother Shen away first.
Shen Rongsheng had never dared to disobey his father. At that moment, he couldn’t care less about his mother’s tantrum and immediately took her away.
Mother Shen, on the other hand, was still very indignant as she scolded, “Old Shen, what kind of person is this? My daughter sacrificed herself for that Chi kid. Instead of being thankful, they’re saying that my daughter dragged that Chi kid down?”
Mother Shen’s voice grew softer and softer as Shen Rongsheng took her away. Except for Wei Xiao and his son, everyone else’s faces changed when Chief Qi spoke up for Old Chi and when he said “my father-in-law.”
Even after Commander Lu and Commissar Shen saw how Chief Qi treated Chi Lingyan well and they had suspicions, they were still shocked.
Commissar Shen didn’t expect this youngest senior official from the Qi family to become the son-in-law of the Chi family at all. He was too shocked at that moment and didn’t hide it at all. He was even more shocked when he looked at Chi Lingyan’s daughter in front of him. He couldn’t understand why Chief Qi would take a fancy to such a young girl.
From what this person said just now, Commissar Shen understood that this person treated Chi Lingyan as his father-in-law and was completely serious. At the thought that Chi Lingyan was now connected to the Qi family, Commissar Shen’s expression couldn’t help but turn solemn.
So, when Mother Shen left, Commissar Shen quickly apologized to Qi Zhenbai first and then to Chi Lingyan and his daughter.
Qi Zhenbai was still expressionless.
Chi Lingyan’s eyes were very complicated as he looked at a certain man who looked like a dog not far away.
Chi Shuyan also blinked at Qi Zhenbai.
Afraid that Shen Rongyin would implicate her father, Chi Shuyan said again, “I helped someone treat the corpse poison before. Commander Lu and Uncle Wei can speak for me. Commissar Shen, I need to check Miss Shen’s wound immediately. Will that be alright? I’m afraid that the corpse poison in Miss Shen might act up after a while and she’ll bite someone. It’s not good for you to leave her at home!”
As soon as Chi Shuyan finished speaking, the eyes of Commander Lu, Wei Xiao and Wei Ting lit up.. Without waiting for Commander Lu and Wei Xiao to speak, Wei Ting testified on Chi Shuyan’s behalf and said that he had indeed seen her dispel the corpse poison.
