Chapter 1808 Old Liang Family Residence, Song Yanru’s Ploy


Just as Song Yanru finished speaking, another group of people came up behind her: they were Du Zhong, Yun Yiyi, Lu Wenjing and Director Huang.


Yun Yiyi was no longer as arrogant; she looked as obedient as could be. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying.


The others didn’t look much better. Their faces were especially pale and filled with fear. They looked at Chi Shuyan as if she was their last hope. Chi Shuyan blinked, and they scrambled forward and called out, “Celestial Master Chi.”


“Is something the matter?” Chi Shuyan asked.


They nodded in unison. At that moment, everyone wanted to cling to her for the sake of staying alive, so how could they care about Song Yanru? They treated her like she was invisible, which made Song Yanru tremble with anger. They fought to talk to Celestial Master Chi.

!!

“Celestial Master Chi, it’s great that you’re here. We’ve been looking for you for a long time.”


“That’s right, Celestial Master Chi, it’s great that you didn’t leave! We’ve been looking for you for a long time!”


Qi Hao, who was listening on the side, felt inexplicably indignant on his sister-in-law’s behalf; now that these people had seen his sister-in-law’s abilities, they were treating her like their lifesaver.


If not for what happened, there was no way these very arrogant celebrities would take his sister-in-law and him seriously.


Qi Hao didn’t want his sister-in-law to martyr herself for these irrelevant people. It would be fine if these people had better characters, but they had offended his sister-in-law before. Why should his sister-in-law save them?


He still didn’t know how dangerous it was here, and he didn’t want his sister-in-law to take risks for someone else.


Qi Hao knew very well that no matter how capable his sister-in-law was, she would need to take huge risks when saving lives. He couldn’t bear his sister-in-law to fall into the slightest bit of danger, so he couldn’t help but retort, “Are you and my sister-in-law such good friends?”


These words rendered them speechless. Yun Yiyi and Du Zhong felt especially guilty under Qi Hao’s stare. The former had been strutting around just that morning, while the latter had offended Master Chi before.


Du Zhong regretted it very much at that moment. If he had known that he wouldn’t be able to escape this place or that the other party was a capable Celestial Master, he wouldn’t have offended her so early on. So, before he was able to escape this house, he adapted to the situation and immediately came to curry favor with Master Chi after hearing what happened in the morning.


Unfortunately, the effect wasn’t obvious. Du Zhong’s eyes couldn’t help but fill with despair and unwillingness.


It wasn’t just Du Zhong; Yun Yiyi and Lu Wenjing felt the same way.


Chi Shuyan deliberately took no notice of them. Of course, she didn’t want to be a saint. Even if she were, it would depend on the other person’s character; otherwise, she would have died hundreds of times already. Hence, she didn’t pay much attention to them as they tried to strike up a conversation with her. Her tone was very cold.


Du Zhongyun and the others were anxious.


Director Huang, on the other hand, was silent from beginning to end.


Song Yanru had been treated as if she was invisible for long enough. No matter how good her temper was in the past, when it involved her own interests and life, she really couldn’t help it. Moreover, she selfishly wanted Master Chi to do her best to protect her alone and keep her 100% safe. So, without waiting for the others to speak, Song Yanru said anxiously, “Master Chi, I was the one who specially invited you to come at the beginning. Master Chi, you haven’t forgotten, right? I have a small, unreasonable request now.”


At that point, Song Yanru gave Qi Hao a very sincere and apologetic smile. She said, “I was. .h.i.t hard by what happened to Sister He this morning. It just so happens that I have something to talk to Master Chi about. Little Brother Qi, I want to temporarily share a room with Master Chi tonight; is that alright?”


In other words, she wanted to switch rooms with Qi Hao.


Afraid that Master Chi would refuse, coupled with the fact that Qi Hao was Master Chi’s cousin and so Song Yanru couldn’t offend him, she immediately added, “Master Chi, I know my request is unreasonable. I’ve also thought of three people sharing a room together, but it’s a little inconvenient given my ident.i.ty. But don’t worry – I can arrange for Little Brother Qi to stay next door to us. If anything happens, everyone can take care of each other. The soundproofing here isn’t good either. If there’s any movement, everyone will definitely sense it immediately!”


Song Yanru’s words were airtight and her expression was both sincere and soft, which made her excuse sound credible. Even Qi Hao, who didn’t want to agree, couldn’t refuse. Moreover, it sounded like it would only be for one night. Qi Hao wanted to say yes to her, but when he thought of He Liuqing and Zhou Chengfei’s tragic deaths in the morning, he couldn’t help but be a little alarmed, and wasn’t brave enough.


However, Qi Hao was a person who cared a lot about his dignity. Even if he was afraid, he couldn’t directly admit it to a woman in public. In the end, Qi Hao could only grit his teeth and agree. Just as he was about to, however, Lu Ningwen suddenly said, “Film Empress Song, you said that the soundproofing here isn’t good. If there’s any movement, everyone will definitely sense it immediately. Why don’t you just move next door to Master Chi and Brother Qi? If something happens tonight, Master Chi will definitely sense it immediately. It’ll save everyone the trouble of moving around so much. Also, Film Empress Song is definitely used to staying on her own. I think this is a pretty good idea.”


As soon as Lu Ningwen finished speaking, Song Yanru’s face froze. She looked at Lu Ningwen as if she wanted to grind him to pieces, and her eyes were 120% cold.


Chi Shuyan glanced in surprise at Lu Ningwen, who had spoken up for Haozi. She had a good impression of him now, and she immediately smiled. She echoed him and said, “Mr. Lu is right. Film Empress Song is definitely used to staying on her own; I won’t wrong her. If she moves in next door, that’s great.”


These words directly cut Song Yanru off. Moreover, even if Ningwen hadn’t said anything, Chi Shuyan didn’t plan to let Song Yanru switch rooms with Haozi.


She knew very well who was more important.


Moreover, what she hated the most was people who thought they were smart and played tricks under her nose. Don’t think that she couldn’t see Song Yanru’s true thoughts – the other party wanted her to do her best to protect her, but she was also worried that Haozi would say something to affect her reputation in the future. She was only thinking about herself and didn’t care about Haozi at all. How could Chi Shuyan let her have her way?


If the other party had directly suggested that the three of them stay together, Chi Shuyan might not have turned her down so decisively.
