Chapter 898: Strange
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The corners of Wei Xiao’s mouth twitched when he heard this. He had considered this as well, but when he thought about how a chunk of flesh had been bitten out of Shen Rongyin’s neck, Wei Xiao didn’t feel that Shen Rongyin could act to that extent. Besides, what normal person would be willing to be bitten by that d*mn thing?
Wei Xiao lamented that Shen Rongyin seemed to have quite strong feelings for Old Chi.
Chang Qing had been with Wei Xiao for so many years. When his eyes flickered, she knew what he was thinking. She snorted coldly. “Do you dare persuade Old Chi to be with that Shen person?”
Wei Xiao could hear his wife’s anger and hurriedly said, “That’s not something we have any say in. You should use a better att.i.tude with that woman, Shen Rongyin, in the future. Whatever the case, she saved Old Chi’s life!”
Chang Qing was furious. She really didn’t like Shen Rongyin’s style. She dressed herself up every day and attracted the attention of so many young men. Didn’t she know how old she was?
In any case, she really didn’t think that woman was a good person. No, if Old Wei wouldn’t persuade him, she would have to do it herself.
At the Chi residence, Father Chi hadn’t returned yet. Qi Zhenbai had silently watched his wife expel the corpse poison from Shen Rongyin with an ugly expression.
Qi Zhenbai hadn’t had a good impression of this woman surnamed Shen from the moment he saw her. His intuition told him that she wasn’t simple at all. It was too much of a coincidence that she suddenly appeared tonight when that infected person lunged at his father-in-law. Regardless of whether or not she had saved his father-in-law’s life, Qi Zhenbai had always believed that there weren’t that many strange coincidences in this world.
Most of the time, such strange coincidences were deliberate.
Qi Zhenbai rubbed his wife’s head and said in a deep voice, “What? Are you still thinking about that woman from the Shen family?”
Chi Shuyan nodded solemnly. For some reason, she had a bad feeling that her father was now suddenly involved with that woman, Shen Rongyin. Her right eyelid had twitched when she went out earlier.
Although her father didn’t like that woman, Shen Rongyin, after today, many people would probably know that Shen Rongyin had risked her life for Chi Shuyan’s father. Her father naturally wouldn’t be able to ignore people like before and treat them like they were invisible.
If this matter wasn’t handled well, her father might be accused of being ungrateful.
But what if her father really got together with that woman and the other party wanted to be Chi Shuyan’s stepmother? This woman was too dangerous; how could Chi Shuyan be at ease?
She had originally planned to go back in a few days, but how could she dare go back without resolving the matter between her father and this Shen woman? She planned to call Counselor Zhang in a few days to apply for a leave of absence from school again.
Chi Shuyan deliberated for a moment before she said, “Do you remember when we first met that woman, and I said there was a thick smell of blood on her which made me very uncomfortable?”
Qi Zhenbai nodded.
Chi Shuyan continued, “I ran into this woman soon after coming to the military district, but not long after that, the smell of blood on her disappeared completely. Her face was very rosy and she seemed much younger than before. I don’t believe there’s nothing strange about Shen Rongyin at all. I don’t know if I’m thinking too much, but I would be very suspicious if the recent incident with the ‘living dead’ didn’t have anything to do with her.”
Without waiting for Qi Zhenbai to speak, Chi Shuyan continued, “Moreover, what happened tonight was too much of a coincidence. Why did this woman just happen to appear when my dad was about to be bitten by that infected person? What if it wasn’t a coincidence, but a trap that the other party dug for my dad? Can this woman be so ruthless to herself? Can she be a good person?”
