”Yan Yan, you’re not asleep yet? By the way, why did I hear movement in your room just now? Is Qi Zhenbai, that rascal, back?” Chi Lingyan stood at the door and couldn’t help but take a few glances inside.
Chi Shuyan couldn’t tell him that she had been pestered by some thing tonight. When she saw her father constantly looking into her room. Chi Shuyan felt that it was probably lingering trauma from when she brought that man back to her room in the middle of the night before. Wasn’t it obvious that her father didn’t ‘trust’ her anymore? Seeing that her father really wanted to take a look but thought that it wasn’t very nice, Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but smile.
She said directly, “Dad, want to come in and take a seat?”
Chi Lingyan didn’t object. He went in and saw that there was a proper bunk under the bed. Chi Lingyan was very satisfied. Seeing that there was indeed no one else in the room, he relaxed.
His daughter had grown up and had a boyfriend. It wasn’t good for him to stay in his daughter’s room for too long, so they went out to the living room.
Chi Shuyan knew that ever since the matter of the corpse poison had been dealt with, there had been no more cases of biting, sucking blood or infections while her father had been on patrol. He had thus stayed in the military district for the last two days, busy with the Shen family case.
Thinking of the Shen family, she was still a little curious about how this matter would be resolved later. Once Shen Rongyin was convicted, she would be able to directly deal with her.
”Nothing’s been settled for now. We’ll talk about it in the next couple of days. Yan Yan, don’t worry about this anymore. Go to your room and sleep first,” Chi Lingyan said.
Chi Shuyan nodded and got up to go back to her room. Father Chi changed the subject and suddenly said, “Yan Yan, that woman, Shen Rongyin – is she really…” Not human. However, he didn’t ask the question in the end. He waved his hand and had his daughter go back to her room to sleep.
Two days later, there was no bad news about the Shen family, but a piece of ‘good news’ instead. Not only did Shen Rongyin deny having anything to do with the flowerbed at the Shen residence, she had also agreed to marry Fang Qingyang.
Chi Shuyan was having an extra bowl of porridge for breakfast. When she heard what Uncle Wei said, she almost spat out the porridge in her mouth. Her eyes immediately widened. “Uncle Wei, what did you say?”
Wei Xiao had gone out early in the morning and hadn’t eaten breakfast. When he smelled the fragrance of the spirit rice porridge, he polished off the bottom of the pot. Although the porridge was delicious, Wei Xiao’s face was very unsightly.
Wondering if she had heard wrong, Chi Shuyan hurriedly put down the bowl and couldn’t help but say, “Uncle Wei, what on earth did you just say? You said that Shen Rongyin is going to marry Fang Qingyang? And the Shen family will be cleared of all charges? That’s impossible!”
At that point, Wei Xiao couldn’t help but vomit blood. Speaking of which, he had underestimated Fang Qingyang this time.
Of all people, he just had to be infatuated with a woman like Shen Rongyin. There were so many bones buried in the flowerbed that had yet to be identified. Yan Yan had already said that the woman wasn’t human, yet Fang Qingyang still dared to stick close to Shen Rongyin. Where did he get the guts to do so?
Wei Xiao now not only felt that there was something wrong with Fang Qingyang’s abilities, but also his head.
Displeased, Chi Shuyan asked, “Uncle Wei, it’s impossible for the Shen family to be cleared of all charges over such a big matter, right? Since Shen Rongyin was the one who planted the flowers in the flowerbed, there’s no way she couldn’t have known that there were human bones buried underneath! Anyone else would think it’s strange!” After a pause, Chi Shuyan suddenly continued, “By the way, Fang Qingyang wants to protect Shen Rongyin. Then, does Commander Fang Qingtian also agree, and has no objections?”
