Chapter 1796 - 1796 Old Liang Family Residence, Zhou Chengfei Looks for Fang Yu
Chi Shuyan looked at him. Qi Hao felt pressured by his sister-in-law’s gaze and immediately corrected himself. “Bah, bah, bah, look at my rotten mouth. Nothing will happen to you. Sister-in-law, you’re so capable, I…”
“Okay, stop it!” She didn’t want to hear any more of this kid’s flattery. Thinking of how strange Zhou Chengfei was, Chi Shuyan said earnestly to Qi Hao, “From now on, stay away from that Zhou guy, understand?”
Qi Hao was curious. “Sister-in-law, what on earth happened tonight? What happened to that Zhou guy?”
Chi Shuyan didn’t give Qi Hao a straight answer, and just told him to stay as far away from the Zhou guy as possible from now on.
“Oh, Sister-in-law!” Qi Hao looked serious; it seemed that he had taken her words to heart, and Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief.
No matter how many questions Qi Hao had, he couldn’t ask his sister-in-law anymore given how late it was. He hurriedly told her to go to bed and rest.
Because it was a little inconvenient staying in the same room as her cousin, Chi Shuyan didn’t shower. Instead, she used a Cleaning Talisman and went to bed.
Qi Hao hadn’t slept for long earlier, so he went to bed as well, and didn’t wake up until 11am. Seeing that his sister-in-law was no longer in the room, he hurriedly got up, washed up, and went out.
He didn’t expect to run into Fang Yu and Lu Ningwen, who had also just come out.
Qi Hao didn’t forget what his sister-in-law had asked him to do last night. He hurriedly greeted the two of them, and they went downstairs together to eat.
Qi Hao was a little curious about what happened last night. After probing a few times, he found out that when they were playing a game during the filming of the variety show, Zhou Chengfei accidentally fell into the well, scaring everyone. Fortunately, it was just a small scare and nothing happened, so everyone was relieved.
Qi Hao nodded and immediately chimed in, “Filming the variety show is important, but your own safety is the most important. The two of you have to be careful at night. The lights here aren’t very bright at night, so everyone should be careful!”
Qi Hao’s words were spot-on. Lu Ningwen and Fang Yu had good tempers, and immediately nodded in agreement.
The three chatted for a while. Qi Hao probed, “By the way, I heard this morning that the two of you quarreled with someone last night?”
Lu Ningwen and Fang Yu didn’t expect Brother Qi to be so well-informed. They thought that no one knew. Could it be that Du Zhong had revealed it?
Their eyes widened and they blurted out, “How did you know?”
“I definitely have a source, but I can’t reveal how I found out. I’m just curious if you really did quarrel with Brother Du last night.” Qi Hao called him Brother Du, but he despised him in his heart; this Du kid was lucky that Qi Hao would deign to call him Brother.
Lu Ningwen and Fang Yu hadn’t planned to badmouth Du Zhong before, but since Brother Qi already knew, the two didn’t hide it and told him the truth. “When we came back from rescuing Brother Chengfei last night, Brother Du suddenly disappeared. We went to his room to look for him, and only relaxed when we saw he had gone back, but who knows how Brother Du was provoked – he went crazy and said that Brother Chengfei isn’t human. He doesn’t want to film the show anymore and wants to leave.”
When Qi Hao heard what the two boys said, he suddenly thought of what his sister-in-law had said last night about staying as far away from that Zhou guy as possible. Wait, could it be that there really was something wrong with Zhou Chengfei?
Lu Ningwen and Fang Yu were stumped for a moment before they realized that Brother Hao was referring to Zhou Chengfei. Hearing his question, the two didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Brother Zhou is fine. Brother Zhou is really fine. We, Director Huang and your sister-in-law saw him last night. Brother Du must have been provoked by something last night and was talking nonsense.”
Seeing that the two didn’t believe Du Zhong, Qi Hao’s heart sank. He had a good impression of the two of them, and gritted his teeth and suddenly said, “Brother Lu, Brother Fang, let me tell you a secret: My sister-in-law really is an especially powerful Celestial Master. I really didn’t lie to you before. By the way, last night, she told me to stay as far away from that Zhou guy as possible and to never approach him alone. My sister-in-law’s words have always been very accurate. She should have seen that there’s something wrong with him. You must keep this in mind!”
Lu Ningwen and Fang Yu looked at each other in disbelief.
The two had yet to come back to their senses after Qi Hao walked away. For a moment, they didn’t know whether to believe Brother Qi’s words or rebuke him for being superstitious.
Lost in thought, they reached the front yard. Everyone was there, including Zhou Chengfei, who was sitting opposite Xiao Ying as the group ate and chatted.
The two of them had a good relationship. Ever since they starred in the same production together, there were rumors that they were a couple. Who knew if it was true or not, but it was clear that they were quite close; at least, closer than was the norm.
But if Xiao Ying really had a good relationship with Zhou Chengfei, why hadn’t she stepped forward when something happened to Zhou Chengfei last night?
Who knew if it was because Fang Yu’s gaze was too curious, but Zhou Chengfei raised his eyes and met his gaze. He smiled insincerely and waved for him to come over and sit down next to him.
After Fang Yu sat down, Zhou Chengfei suddenly whispered, “Brother Fang, I have something to ask you for help with. Can you come to my room at 8pm?”
