1703 A Man’s Jealousy (1)


In the blink of an eye, a few days pa.s.sed. Not long after dinner with the man, the couple returned to the bedroom early. The man went to take a shower. Chi Shuyan was listening to the sound of water splas.h.i.+ng in the bathroom, when she suddenly received a call from Brother Feng.


Brother Feng sounded very happy. The main reason he called was to tell her that the Strength Pill which she had given to Xiao Shan before was very useful. Not only that, when Xiao Shan went to deal with a brawl this time, he was also able to make connections to an old homicide case, and stomped out an underground force. In short, Xiao Shan had done a great job this time. Feng Yuanlin had been busy dealing with this matter for the past few days, and only after sorting it out did he have the time to call Shuyan and thank her on Xiao Shan’s behalf. If it wasn’t for Shuyan’s Strength Pill, it would probably have been very difficult to handle this matter, and things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly. Feng Yuanlin recalled Xiao Shan’s expression when the latter described to him how magical Shuyan’s pill was. He drooled in his heart and said in a half-complaining, half-joking tone, “Shuyan, you actually never told me about something as good as the Strength Pill. Instead, it was someone else who benefited.”


Feng Yuanlin deliberately snorted, which made Chi Shuyan feel helpless and amused. It wasn’t that she was biased, but she saw from Xiao Shan’s physiognomy that he would be in danger. Of course, even without her Strength Pill, Xiao Shan would definitely have rendered a meritorious service this time. It was just that things wouldn’t have gone as smoothly, and she had only helped out in pa.s.sing.


Chi Shuyan explained the matter, which made Feng Yuanlin snort again. “Shuyan, why don’t you put such good stuff up for sale on Taobao?” Halfway through his sentence, Feng Yuanlin thought that even if Shuyan put it up on Taobao, he probably wouldn’t be able to get a share. After all, he really didn’t have time to stay up all night like those brats and wait to grab whatever Shuyan put up for sale. Feng Yuanlin immediately corrected himself. “Shuyan, pretend I didn’t say anything. Don’t put this good stuff up for sale on Taobao. Just secretly sell it to me. This thing is really good stuff for us!”

!!

Chi Shuyan hadn’t thought much of it before, but after listening to Brother Feng, she agreed. With this thing, Brother Feng and the others would indeed be much more efficient in the future. Besides, this thing really took nothing more than a bit of time to make. Chi Shuyan immediately nodded and agreed. “Okay, Brother Feng, I still have some on me. I’ll send them to you in a few days!”


“Don’t don’t, Shuyan, are you free tomorrow? Why don’t I go to the university?” Feng Yuanlin said anxiously. He was really curious about the Strength Pill.


Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to reply, Feng Yuanlin continued, “If those boys privately ask you about it, don’t be too nice to them. Give them all to me, and I’ll keep them. Shuyan, we’re so familiar with each other. Remember what I said!”


It wasn’t that Feng Yuanlin didn’t want to give the Strength Pills to his subordinates, but that Shuyan was too generous. If she casually gave the pills out, and didn’t have enough when the time came, she would have to waste her time refining more. Even if Feng Yuanlin was very familiar with Shuyan, he didn’t have the face to make her do more work. He might as well have Shuyan give him the Strength Pills, and he would distribute them when the time came; those boys wouldn’t dare have any objections.


As Chi Shuyan replied to Brother Feng, she suddenly recalled that she didn’t have many bottles of Strength Pills in her Cosmos Ring, so she simply said, “Brother Feng, why don’t I give them to you in a few days? I don’t have many here. Shall I refine some more?”


Feng Yuanlin immediately refused. “It’s fine, just give me a few bottles. Don’t trouble yourself for now. If they’re really not enough, I’ll ask you again later!”


The two chatted for a while longer. Most of it was Feng Yuanlin teasing the couple, especially when he found out that Zhenbai was showering. Feng Yuanlin teased, “A moment between a young couple is worth a thousand gold. Okay, I won’t disturb you anymore. It’ll be great if you can give me a good nephew or niece!”


Chi Shuyan had just sat on the sofa and taken a sip of water. When she heard Brother Feng’s teasing, she spat the water out. She froze with embarra.s.sment and immediately changed the subject.


Feng Yuanlin stopped messing around. Before hanging up, he seriously asked about Xia Mingcheng’s progress, and told Chi Shuyan that Yang Ji and the others had been very uneasy recently, especially when they didn’t know who would be next. All of them were feeling very panicked. He didn’t know how to comfort them, and just hoped that Xia Mingcheng was making smooth progress.


Chi Shuyan nodded and said, “Xia Mingcheng told me before that there has been some progress. It should be soon; if there’s any news, I’ll contact you immediately. I’ll go see Yang Ji and the others when I’m free tomorrow or the day after, and give you the Strength Pills!”


“Okay, then it’s a deal!”


The two chatted for a while before hanging up. Just as Chi Shuyan was pondering calling Xia Mingcheng to ask if he was alright, she received a call on her phone. Who else could it be but Xia Mingcheng?


Chi Shuyan immediately picked up the call, and Xia Mingcheng said anxiously, “Master Chi, I gave Yuan Yuan your item today. I don’t think she suspects anything.”


Xia Mingcheng recalled the woman’s expression when he gave her the item in the afternoon. She indeed didn’t have the slightest doubt and was very happy. However, the woman kept trying to get information out of him, and it was all about Master Chi.


Xia Mingcheng gave her a rough account of the matter. Chi Shuyan’s eyes were cold and her lips curved up. “Oh? It’s good that things went smoothly! I’m sorry to trouble you!”


She was quite surprised at such smooth progress, but of course, it was better than the opposite. As for Yuan Yuan trying to get information out of Xia Mingcheng, Chi Shuyan believed that Xia Mingcheng wasn’t dumber than that Yuan woman. Even if Xia Mingcheng did reveal something about Chi Shuyan, however, it wouldn’t make a difference.


Xia Mingcheng sighed with relief at that moment. He couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Master Chi, will all this be over soon?”


“Relax, there’s nothing to worry about!” Xia Mingcheng was the only one who wouldn’t be dragged into things. Yuan Yuan would kill everyone else but Xia Mingcheng. However, Chi Shuyan didn’t tell Xia Mingcheng this. If she did, he probably wouldn’t be able to keep up appearances with Yuan Yuan. Moreover, this matter was too heavy for Xia Mingcheng.


Hearing Master Chi’s words, Xia Mingcheng finally sighed with relief. He was silent for a while before he asked, “Master Chi, is there anything else I can help with?”


“Not now, but I’ll definitely trouble you in the future!” Chi Shuyan said.


“Okay!”


The two chatted for a while before hanging up. There had been progress, so Chi Shuyan was in a good mood. When she hung up, she couldn’t help but smile.


Qi Zhenbai came out of the shower at that moment, wiping his wet hair. His eyes were sharp as he came over and saw his wife smile while on the phone. His eyes darkened, and he pursed his thin lips tightly. He asked in a deep voice, “Who was that? Why are you in such a good mood?”


At that moment, he didn’t notice the deep jealousy in his tone.
