Chang Qing also knew that no one lived next door. It was understandable that the Shen family would move in now that something had happened to them. Except for Commissar Shen and Shen Rongsheng, however, she didn’t have a good impression of the Shen family. She really didn’t have a good
impression of the two women, Mother Shen and Shen Rongyin. One was used to looking down on ordinary people, while the other was hypocritical.
Chang Qing didn’t say anything and just nodded perfunctorily.
At that moment, Wei Man came out of his room with a bowl. He had just called out, “Mom,” when he saw Shen Rongyin at the door. His face changed and his legs shook.
He didn’t know if it was because he had received too big a shock earlier, but he was especially and subconsciously afraid of the Shen residence and the Shen family. Yan Yan had said that there was something wrong with the Shen family. Thinking of what had happened at the Shen residence today, Wei
Man shivered again.
When Shen Rongyin saw Wei Man, she smiled at him and greeted him. Wei Man shuddered and felt like the woman was going to swallow him up.
Fortunately, Shen Rongyin didn’t stay long at the Wei residence. Before she left, she took a few more looks at the expressionless Qi Zhenbai on the side, then said nicely to Chi Shuyan, “Yan Yan, remember to come more often to my place to play in the future. Come and find me when you’re free!”
When Shen Rongyin said that, there was a probing yet discomfited look in the depths of her eyes. She then glanced at Wei Man on the side.
Chi Shuyan smoothly blocked her line of sight and smiled. “Okay!”
After Shen Rongyin left, Wei Man greeted Chief Qi obediently, then rubbed the goosebumps that were all over his body as he said to Chi Shuyan and Chang Qing, “Yan Yan, Mom, why do I feel that the Shen family is especially creepy? She looked at me like she wanted to swallow me up.”
Chang Qing was probably thinking about how something had happened in the Shen residence today; now that the Shen family had moved in next door, her face was unsightly. She berated Wei Man and told him to stay at home for the next few days.
Wei Man hurriedly nodded. “I’l definitely listen to Yan Yan. I’ll stay at home for the next few days and won’t go anywhere!”
Chi Shuyan was pretty pleased with Wei Man’s vigilance. Seeing how he avoided Shen Rongyin just now, she reckoned that he wouldn’t take the initiative to approach the woman. It was just that the Shen family would now be living next door to the Wei family. Who knew if the Wei family was too unlucky
or if Shen Rongyin had an ulterior motive.
For now, she could only keep the Wei family away from the Shen family. As for Wei Man, this “fat piece of meat” which Shen Rongyin had just missed out on, Chi Shuyan raised her eyes and stared at him. Although there was still some black qi of bad luck on his forehead, the death calamity had already
been averted. As long as he stayed at home with the talismans she had given him and didn’t go out, there shouldn’t be any major problems.
As for Shen Rongyin, many people had just died, so she probably wouldn’t dare rashly attack Third Brother Wei.
Chi Shuyan thought of how the Shen woman had looked at Qi Zhenbai repeatedly before she left – there had been both greed and fear in her eyes. It was even more unlikely that the woman would look for Qi Zhenbai.
Only then did Chi Shuyan relax. She said goodbye to Aunt Chang, and she and Qi Zhenbai went back to their place.
When they got home, Chi Shuyan thought about how this man hadn’t eaten his fill, and was about to cook some spirit rice for him. Qi Zhenbai took the pot from his wife’s hands, and Chi Shuyan saw that he was much more practiced at scooping out the rice and washing it.
“Why isn’t my dad back yet? By the way, where did you and my dad go this morning? Did you go on patrol again?”
“What happened in the Shen residence this morning?”
Chi Shuyan gave a rough account of what happened to Wei Man in the morning, as well as of the drained corpses at the Shen residence and of the bones in the Shen family’s flowerbed. Seeing the man’s gloomy and solemn face, she immediately said to him, “I’ve already gotten Uncle Wei to investigate any
missing people.. We’ll know when the time comes! There’s no hurry! We’ll talk about it when Uncle Wei comes back!
