Chapter 897: Wei Xiao’s Warning
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qi Zhenbai picked up his wife in front of his father-in-law and strode off.
Wei Xiao retracted his gaze, swallowed his saliva, and suddenly said to Chi Lingyan, “This person from the Qi family seems… to really care about Yan Yan? He’s really good to her!”
Chi Lingyan’s expression was also very complicated.
At that moment, Wei Ting said, “Uncle Chi, don’t worry. Yan Yan is my sister from now on. This person from the Qi family won’t dare bully her in the future!”
The corners of Wei Xiao’s mouth twitched. He waved his hand and hurriedly sent this kid away.
After Wei Ting left, Wei Xiao said to Chi Lingyan, “Old Chi, this kid is a simpleton. Ignore him.”
Chi Lingyan said, “Yan Yan is blessed to have a big brother like Ah Ting!”
“Okay, let’s not talk about that anymore!” Wei Xiao suddenly thought of something and couldn’t help but pat Chi Lingyan’s shoulder and sigh. “Old Chi, I really don’t know if you were lucky or unlucky tonight! You don’t really plan to be responsible for that woman, Shen Rongyin, right?”
Wei Xiao was used to thinking the worst. Now that the Chi family member had a relations.h.i.+p with the Qi family, no matter how impartial Commissar Shen was, he was also a shrewd person. Wei Xiao was afraid that Old Chi would take responsibility for Shen Rongyin saving him.
Even if Old Chi refused to take responsibility, it was unlikely that he would be able to remain una.s.sociated with the Shen family after this matter. Even if he really didn’t want to have anything to do with them, other people might accuse him of being ungrateful.
After listening to Wei Xiao’s a.n.a.lysis, Chi Lingyan’s face changed and he said, “Surely Commissar Shen isn’t that sort of person. Besides, Yan Yan’s relations.h.i.+p with that Qi person isn’t set in stone yet. Whether they marry or not is a matter for the future. I don’t have expectations of my daughter marrying into a prestigious family. I just want her to be safe and sound for the rest of her life!”
Wei Xiao sighed inwardly. Just because Old Chi thought so didn’t mean that others thought the same. No matter what, Old Chi owed the Shen family a very big favor today, and it would be very difficult to repay it. In addition, that woman, Shen Rongyin, also liked Old Chi. To be honest, if this woman wasn’t so strange, Wei Xiao really might not have been able to help but persuade Old Chi to marry Shen Rongyin after she risked her life to protect Old Chi.
It was just that no matter how he thought about it, he felt that the daughter of the Shen family was too strange. Recalling what happened to Old Ren’s family, how could Wei Xiao dare persuade Old Chi to accept her?
Wei Xiao suddenly said, “Old Chi, right, what a coincidence today. That daughter of the Shen family suddenly ran into you when something happened?”
Chi Lingyan shook his head to indicate that he didn’t know either. He really didn’t. When that person infected with corpse poison lunged at him, he had been about to make a move. He had his daughter’s talisman in his pocket, so he wasn’t alarmed. He just didn’t expect Shen Rongyin to suddenly appear and push the person away.
Chi Lingyan didn’t want to maliciously speculate if the other party had any other motives. Whether or not she had implicated him, she had indeed risked her life to save him.
Wei Xiao sighed and said, “I really don’t know if you and that daughter of the Shen family are really fated to be together. Old Chi, you may appreciate what Shen Rongyin did for you, but don’t let yourself suffer! If Commissar Shen wants to speak with you, don’t agree to any conditions!”
Almost everyone knew that Shen Rongyin had been bitten for Chi Lingyan’s sake. Chang Qing was waiting for Old Wei because of this matter, and after he came back, she couldn’t help but say, “Is that woman, Shen Rongyin, alright?! Old Chi is fine too, right? You’re Old Chi’s good friend, so you have to remind him that he can appreciate her kindness but he shouldn’t let himself suffer. That Shen Rongyin isn’t an ordinary woman.. She’s very scheming. Maybe she deliberately orchestrated this to force Old Chi to yield!”
