Chapter 124: Nemesis
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qin Xi leaned into Han Shi’s arms and felt sweet inside. A color resembling evening glow slowly appeared on her face again.
For some reason, she realized that as long as she was with Han Shi, she would blush easily, and her reaction and thinking would be much slower.
He was just a guy with the intelligence of a five-year-old, but he could also make her shy and nervous. What was weird was that Qin Xi seemed to be addicted to this feeling, especially when she went to bed at night…
“Wifey, what’s wrong?”
While Qin Xi was absent-minded, Han Shi suddenly asked. Qin Xi replied without thinking, “What do you mean what’s wrong?”
“Your heart is beating so fast, it feels like it’s about to jump out…”
“Ah… you little brat, where are you touching?” Qin Xi cried out and quickly jumped out of his arms. Her face was red to the neck and her entire body seemed to be on fire. She glared at Han Shi angrily and shyly.
Han Shi was shocked by her agitated reaction and looked at Qin Xi aggrievedly.
Seeing his expression, Qin Xi’s anger inexplicably disappeared. She felt that Han Shi was her nemesis.
At this moment, the courtyard was in chaos, but outside the wall, the vibe was lovey-dovey.
Seeing that three minutes was almost up, Tao Po threatened the Qin family, “Hmph, this is the price you pay for doing that kind of thing in my house. Now, I want to live in your house. Let’s see who dares to snatch it from me.”
With that, she flew straight into the house and did not come out again.
The Qin family thought Tao Po had occupied their house. No one dared to enter and could only squat in the courtyard, trembling.
The same thing happened to the Shi family too. That night, Shangwan Village was bustling with activity. All the dogs in the village were barking, waking up the villagers.
When the villagers arrived at the Qin family, they saw the Qin family hiding in the cowshed, trembling. It was where Qin Xi used to live.
The villagers thought to themselves, ‘It’s really true that what goes around comes around!’
Just as everyone was asking what happened to the Qin family, they heard an ear-piercing scream coming from the direction of the Shi family.
They were shocked and ran towards the Shi family in a group. Liu Shuan was woken up by the noise when they passed by his house.
However, when the villagers arrived at the Shi family, they saw that the Shi family had either fainted from fear or were hiding. Compared to the Qin family, they were much more miserable.
Seeing this, Liu Shuan walked forward and wanted to ask something, but the Shi family was so frightened that they could not speak properly. They pointed at the house and shouted, “There’s a ghost… Tao Po is coming after us.”
Ghost?
Liu Shuan frowned and looked into the house. He did not believe in ghosts and gods, but he heard that the Shi family and the Qin family had caused a scene at Tao Po’s house today in order to harm Qin Xi. They probably thought Tao Po was angry with them and came to seek revenge.
When he thought about Qin Xi’s ability, he sneered in his heart. Qin Xi was the last person they could afford to offend.
“Alright, It’s time to dismiss! Go back and sleep.”
“Chief, are we… not going to do something?” A villager asked.
Liu Shuan asked, “How? It’s their fault. What can I do? They actually dared to do such a nasty thing while I went to town. They should already be thankful that I didn’t settle the score with them. If any of you want to get involved, be my guest. Hmph!”
With that, he snorted and left.
The villagers looked at each other and left one after another.
Before Liu Shuan left, he saw Qin Xi and Han Shi at the back of the group. When he passed them, he said, “Come and find me tomorrow!”
