1557 Cold Face

After Jing Hengran drove away, Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief. Taking advantage of the good weather and the fact that it was still early, Chi Shuyan planned to walk for a bit before she took a taxi.

It was only past 8pm, and there were quite a lot of people on the streets. Chi Shuyan went with the flow of pedestrians. After walking for a while, she took out her phone and logged into WeChat. She was happy when she saw that her teacher had sent her a WeChat message, and she hurriedly replied.

Thinking of her teacher, she suddenly remembered that she had yet to open the gift from the latter. She would take a look when she returned to the villa later.

Chi Shuyan chatted with her teacher as they walked. The two of them were happily engrossed in their conversation. Her teacher said that the weather had been dry recently, and she asked Chi Shuyan what kind of skincare products she wanted, and she would send her a set.

Chi Shuyan wasnt going to ask for any skincare products; her skin couldnt be bad since she was drinking the Marrow Cleansing Soup, even if it was a low-grade version. Adding her cultivation into the equation, her body was filled with spiritual energy, so her skin couldnt be damaged, and was fair and translucent.

Her teachers words, on the other hand, reminded her that she could give her teacher homemade skincare products. Only people with spiritual energy could take the low-grade Marrow Cleansing Soup and Marrow Cleansing Pill, to say nothing of the Beauty Pill. Her teacher couldnt take these, so Chu Shuyan felt that she could try making a batch of skincare products and send a set to her teacher, then try selling some on Taobao.

Actually, she wasnt short of money now. As for jade, she could use her spirit tea deal with the Fan family to acquire those. It was said that the ancient martial families had good foundations and jade mines. She might be able to exchange spirit tea for jade, and she wouldnt be short of money in the future.

As for suddenly thinking about making skincare products, it was mainly for her masters sake; it didnt matter if they didnt sell on Taobao.

Chi Shuyan was lost in thought until a car splashed water on her and she came back to her senses. The black car slowly stopped. The window rolled down, and Chi Shuyan immediately met a very familiar pair of eyes.

It was a pity that at that moment, those eyes were cold and impatient. There was no warmth in them, and Chi Shuyan inexplicably felt her hair stand on end. She heard him say Sorry without any trace of regret in his tone, and the window rolled up again. The car immediately drove away.

Chi Shuyan:

After the other partys car left, Chi Shuyan lowered her head and looked at the dirty water on her clothes. She had specially showered today and changed into grayish-white casual sportswear. There were clear stains of dirty water on her pants. Chi Shuyan had always had a good temper, and wasnt about to lose it right away. However, she then noticed that there were no cars on the long, wide road next to her.

Unless the other party was doing it on purpose, how could she be splashed with dirty water while she was standing on the sidewalk? Besides, the main road was so big and wide. Why did the other party have to drive so close to the side?

If it wasnt intentional, what was it?

When it came to her feelings, Chi Shuyan felt that Qi Zhenbai wouldnt do such a childish thing given how steady he was. After a rational a.n.a.lysis, however, Chi Shuyan felt more and more that it couldnt be anything but deliberate.

In the end, she could only grit her teeth and acknowledge her bad luck. Who asked her to come out tonight without consulting the almanac?

Because she had been splashed with dirty water, Chi Shuyan was no longer in the mood to walk, so she simply prepared to take a taxi back to the villa. She said a few words to her teacher on WeChat before she took a taxi and left.

On the other side, the black car stopped at a nearby corner. The man sitting upright in the backseat rolled down the window. Unlike his cold and impatient gaze just now, his thin lips were pursed and his expression was deep as he looked at a particular spot for a long time without saying a word. Occasionally, he would tug on the prayer beads around his wrist. Apart from that, he didnt do anything else.

The driver didnt dare make a sound at all to disturb the man in the backseat. Ever since what happened in the Qi family recently, the driver was terrified of this ruthless and cold Young Master Qi, who didnt care about blood ties at all.

Not long after, the mans phone rang. Seeing that Young Master Qi didnt move for a long time, the driver reminded him, Young Master Qi, its a call for you!

Only then did Qi Zhenbai take out his phone from his pocket. Qi Haos careful and probing voice rang out on the phone. Cousin, Grandpa is asking when youre coming back to the Qi residence. Grandpa hasnt been well recently, and he wants you to bring Sister-in-law back to the Qi residence.

Qi Zhenbais face was still expressionless, and both his eyes and his tone were indifferent.

Although what happened to Fourth Uncle Qis family had made Qi Hao keenly aware of his cousins methods, he was still biased toward his cousin in the end, just like how his mother would occasionally say to his father in private, Zhenbais methods may be ruthless, but do you think he would have been ruthless if Fourth Brother hadnt forced him? Dont think that just because you dont say it, I cant guess what kind of shady things Fourth Brother has done. Fourth Brothers methods have always been sinister and vicious. He almost killed Zhenbai when Zhenbai was eight or nine years old. If Fourth Brother hadnt gone too far this time and crossed Zhenbais bottom line, Zhenbai might not have been so ruthless toward Fourth Brothers family. Who is to blame? We cant blame Zhenbai. Besides, Fourth Brother is your and Brother-in-laws younger brother, but isnt Zhenbai your nephew and his son? In any case, I dont think it makes sense for Dad and Brother-in-law to blame Zhenbai. The people who colluded with Fourth Brother back then to deal with Zhenbai werent good people.

It had to be said that it was also because of his mothers words that Qi Hao gradually understood that the death of his fourth uncles family couldnt be completely blamed on his cousin. His fourth uncle must have done something that crossed his cousins bottom line, which was why he wouldnt let his family off.

He still felt that his cousin was a little pitiful. Because of what happened to his fourth uncles family, his grandfather, eldest uncle, and even his family blamed his cousin and forced him to leave the Qi residence.

His uncle even scolded his cousin several times for being cold-blooded, and said that he didnt have a son like him. His cousin had been expressionless at that time, and had just turned around and left the Qi family.

In short, when he thought about his cousins situation now, his heart ached terribly. Occasionally, he would recall how his cousin had suddenly gone to Longhu Mountain for half a month.

At the same time, he had the feeling that if his fourth uncle hadnt died, it would probably be his cousin who would be dead now. Thinking this, Qi Haos heart ached even more, and he couldnt help but ask, Cousin, when are you coming home?
