1657 Bombshell
Not only did Chai Qing not take Li Xiaoyan’s words to heart, she even took them as a curse from that Chi woman. She was so angry that her face turned livid and her hand trembled as she cursed, “Li Xiaoyan, I believe I treated you well before and didn’t offend you much. Do you have to curse me like that? Is it that Chi woman? I knew she didn’t mean me well! You, Yang Ji, and the others don’t mean me well either! She’s deliberately cursing me.”
The more Chai Qing spoke, the angrier she became. She even scolded Li Xiaoyan a few times before she directly hung up.
Li Xiaoyan: …
Li Xiaoyan was really a bit stupefied by the scolding. She hung up in a daze, looking bewildered and anxious.
Everyone else had different expressions. They immediately looked at Master Chi, who was standing on the side. Seeing that her face was as calm as ever, everyone’s hearts thumped; they weren’t sure what Master Chi was thinking.
When Li Xiaoyan spoke to Chai Qing just now, she didn’t turn on the speaker, but later on, Chai Qing cursed so loudly that everyone could hear her even if they didn’t want to; Master Chi must have heard her too.
Everyone really didn’t want to hear what Chai Qing said when she scolded Li Xiaoyan and Master Chi. The more they looked at Li Xiaoyan’s befuddled expression in particular, the angrier they became.
Even Yi Junzhong and Jiang Mingguang, who had the best tempers, were furious, and their faces turned dark.
When everyone found out that something was going to happen to Chai Qing, they had been very sympathetic and their hearts couldn’t help but soften. Now, however, they couldn’t help but think of how that Chai woman had just cursed Yang Ji. Wang Jinyang was the most impatient and couldn’t help but explode first. “Since that woman thinks we have ill intentions, we don’t need to worry about her — who knows, she probably thinks we want to do her harm. Besides, what does it have to do with us? You heard that woman curse Yang Ji to die just now. In any case, I don’t care whether Chai Qing lives or dies in the future!”
As soon as Wang Jinyang flipped out, the others looked at each other in dismay. Of course, although the others didn’t say anything, they thought the same as Wang Jinyang. They all felt that this woman, Chai Qing, didn’t know what was good for her and was too stupid. How dare she mock Master Chi?
Who knew if that woman would regret this later.
To be honest, they really didn’t understand how Master Chi had offended Chai Qing. Why did she keep fixating on Master Chi?
Huang Chong couldn’t help but snort coldly and add, “That woman has always thought that Master Chi doesn’t mean her well. Even if we tell her the truth, are you sure that woman will believe us and not Yuan Yuan? Also, why did that woman scold Xiaoyan so badly for no reason?”
Huang Chong really didn’t have the slightest favorable impression of that woman. Ever since he got close to her, he could see that she was extremely selfish. Moreover, he had the feeling that saving her this time might not be a good thing. This woman might even cause more trouble in the future. She was really capable of scheming against others for her own sake. Of course, the most important thing was that this woman was too stupid and easily used.
Huang Chong immediately apologized to Master Chi, who had been silent all this time, then said, “Master Chi, how about we just leave this matter? She never believed you!”
Seeing that Huang Chong had made a decision, the others didn’t speak up for Chai Qing, though some who were still a little soft-hearted and didn’t know Chai Qing’s true colors hesitated.
Jiang Mingguang couldn’t help but half-believe what the young lady in front of him said. Last time, she said that something would happen to Huang Chong after something happened to Yang Ji, and she was right. Also, she knew Celestial Master Gu. Actually, Jiang Mingguang couldn’t help but trust the words of this Chi girl in front of him. It was just that he felt a little conflicted.
In the end, he had known Chai Qing for so many years. This was a matter of life and death, so he was calmer and more rational. Unfortunately, Chai Qing had offended everyone terribly. It was probably useless for him to speak up for her. Moreover, as Huang Chong said, Chai Qing didn’t believe in Master Chi. No one was forcing her to believe, so it was useless even if he spoke up for her. In the end, it was all up to Chai Qing.
Jiang Mingguang simply remained silent.
As for Chi Shuyan, she wasn’t someone who would continue pestering a person once they rejected her goodwill. Hearing that woman, Chai Qing, mock her just now, she would be crazy to help her. It wasn’t like she had nothing better to do.
Besides, whether or not that Chai woman died really had nothing to do with her.
Seeing everyone look at her and wait for her answer, Chi Shuyan’s eyes regained some warmth. Her lips curled up slowly and she said in her usual tone, “I’ll tell Brother Feng about this. You don’t have to worry about it.”
With that, she turned around and left, but Li Xiaoyan suddenly called out, “Master Chi, is Chai Qing…?”
How could Chi Shuyan not understand what Li Xiaoyan was asking? It was really impossible for her to rush and save her. Chi Shuyan might be easy to talk to, but her temper really wasn’t that good. Those who were familiar with Chi Shuyan should understand that Chai Qing had really offended her terribly. Even if the other party personally begged her and kowtowed a hundred times, she wouldn’t help. Wouldn’t helping an enemy disgust her?
But she still had a good impression of Li Xiaoyan, who spoke little and had a good temper. She paused and didn’t deliberately avoid the topic, but directly replied, “As for Miss Chai, you should also know it’s not that I don’t want to help, but she doesn’t believe me. In that case, I have no choice. To each their own fate; perhaps Miss Chai will be lucky!”
Chi Shuyan’s tone was light and emotionless when she said the last sentence. She nodded at everyone and turned around to leave.
Li Xiaoyan actually still wanted to go out and persuade her, but Wang Jinyang, Yang Ji and Yi Junzhong stopped her. Wang Jinyang retorted directly, “Girl, have your brains been scrambled after being scolded by that Chai woman? You’re even speaking up for her? Didn’t Master Chi make herself clear?”
Huang Chong couldn’t help but say to Li Xiaoyan, “Xiaoyan, sometimes, there’s no need to be too sincere with dishonest people. She might plot against you behind your back in the future! Look, if it wasn’t for Master Chi, how badly would Yang Ji have been screwed over by that woman?”
In fact, when he was with Yuan Yuan and Chai Qing, the latter had said a lot of bad things about Yang Ji and the others. It was also because of this that he felt that it wasn’t worth it for Li Xiaoyan to be so good to Chai Qing. This was also something he realized after what happened to him.
Li Xiaoyan: …
“By the way, where’s Celestial Master Gu? Is he not back yet?”
After leaving the ward and standing at the hospital entrance to breathe in the fresh air, Chi Shuyan’s mood improved a lot. Although she didn’t plan to interfere in Chai Qing’s matter, she still planned to report it to Brother Feng and have him prepare to collect the body.
Speaking of which, given the cadaveric qi and Chai Qing’s physiognomy, there was a 80 to 90% chance that this woman wouldn’t live past tonight. To be honest, it was very difficult to avoid the calamity. Even if Chi Shuyan stepped forward, she might not have a 100% chance of saving her.
With no one to help, the other party would definitely die tonight.
Chi Shuyan hoped that when something happened to that woman tonight, she would still have the confidence to scold her like a shrew. Thinking this, her lips curled up into a cold smile.
She swiped her phone screen and found Brother Feng’s number. Before she could make the call, her phone rang. Who else could it be but her man?
The anger in Chi Shuyan’s heart was swept away. She picked up the call with a smile, and heard the man’s deep voice on the other end. “Have you eaten lunch? Are you not in school?”
Chi Shuyan didn’t expect this man to go to the university to look for her. She immediately said, “Where are you? I’m at the hospital nearby. I just came over for a bit, and I’m about to leave!”
Qi Zhenbai didn’t ask his wife much. He knew that she took these sorts of jobs to make money. Most of the time, Qi Zhenbai wanted to say that his family didn’t lack money, but his wife’s skills and talent were hard to come by, plus she was also interested in this field. He couldn’t bear to do anything to force her, so he didn’t say much. He just told his wife to give him her location immediately, and he would go and pick her up.
Chi Shuyan just felt that this man was too free. Even if he came to pick her up, she didn’t have free time to spend with him. She still had to go back to school right away. Wasn’t this a waste of fuel and time?
She immediately told the man on the other end that there was no need to pick her up, and that she could take a taxi back to school.
Unexpectedly, in the next second, a certain man dropped a bombshell that blew Chi Shuyan’s mind and made her vision turn black. “Dad came back to the capital. He’s at my place!”
