Chapter 1467 - 1467 Calling Qi Zhenbai

1467 Calling Qi Zhenbai
On the way back, Chi Shuyan received a call from the Jing family, mainly because Jing Hengran had something urgent to discuss with her. Chi Shuyan subconsciously thought that there was a problem with the pills she had given him before. She was a bit puzzled, so she could only send Li Yu back to the restaurant for Chef Li to take care of him.
Chef Li came out of the kitchen and said happily, “Miss Shuyan, why are you here? Shall I make you a big lunch right away?”
Chi Shuyan had been living in a small village for the past few days and hadn’t tasted Chef Li’s cooking in a while. For a moment, she really couldn’t help but swallow her saliva. In the end, she thought of how she had to attend to official business, and refused. “It’s alright, I have something to do at noon today. We’ll talk about it tonight! I’ll leave Li Yu with you for now!”
Chef Li hurriedly said, “No problem! No problem!”!!
Li Yu wasn’t happy. He hadn’t seen Shuyan in a few days. It was rare to finally see her, and she was about to abandon him again. On the way back to the restaurant, the little guy pouted so hard that you could hang a bucket on his lips. Chi Shuyan repeatedly comforted him and promised him a lot of things before Li Yu stopped throwing a tantrum.
Chef Li hurried out of the kitchen. Seeing that the Ninth Prince had come back to the restaurant, he was very happy and immediately had the Ninth Prince grab a tray and help earn money.
The little guy had been earning pocket money for several months but couldn’t spend it, so his enthusiasm had waned. Li Yu also felt that it had become more and more natural for Chef Li to order him around just to earn a little more money. Li Yu didn’t want to acknowledge this Grandpa Chef Li, whose head was filled with money.
Chi Shuyan could see that the little guy’s enthusiasm for earning money had waned. She repeatedly promised that she would buy more ghost coins for them when she was free, and they could go to some ghost markets in the future.
Li Yu was quite moved by Chi Shuyan’s promise. Even Chef Li was very touched.
However, Li Yu deliberately acted unmoved. Besides, he had promised to give the pocket money he earned to Shuyan. How could he suddenly spend it himself?
Before Li Yu could dwell on it, someone in the kitchen told them that a lot of rich customers had suddenly come. Chef Li’s eyes lit up like 100-watt light bulbs, and were shockingly bright. Before the little guy knew what was happening, Chef Li said a few more words to Chi Shuyan, immediately picked up Li Yu, and ran to the kitchen.
Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but laugh when she saw how eager Chef Li was. However, it was good that Chef Li had taken away that little troublemaker.
Chi Shuyan left Imperial Restaurant and took a taxi to the address of the restaurant which Jing Hengran had given her.
On her way to the appointment, she didn’t forget Zhuang Yanru, who was a ticking time bomb. If Zhuang Yanru really had something to do with the Buddha pendant, should Chi Shuyan warn Qi Zhenbai?
Chi Shuyan pondered for a moment. Thinking of how well the Qi family had treated her in the past, she dialed the man’s number. Unfortunately, it just kept ringing, and no one picked up.
Worried that something had happened to the Qi family, she finally dialed Qi Hao’s number. The call went through quickly, and as soon as Qi Hao picked up, his familiar and excited voice rang out. “Sister-in-law? It’s you! You called me?”
Chi Shuyan was in a good mood at Qi Hao’s inexplicable excitement. Her lips curved up and she asked, “Haozi, where’s your cousin? Has he been very busy recently?”
Qi Hao suddenly panicked when he thought of what happened to his cousin recently. Fortunately, they weren’t face-to-face. Chi Shuyan heard Qi Hao’s unsteady breathing, and her eyes were a bit puzzled. However, she didn’t think something could have happened to Qi Zhenbai. She thought that something had happened to Qi Hao recently, and he had been punished by his family. She asked, “What’s wrong? Haozi, what happened to you recently?”
Qi Hao panicked and immediately denied it. “No, Sister-in-law, nothing happened to me.”
In fact, Qi Hao wanted to blurt out what happened to his cousin, but his cousin hadn’t woken up yet, and he couldn’t let his sister-in-law worry too much. He corrected himself. “It’s really fine, Sister-in-law. I just did something wrong recently and was punished by my family. But Sister-in-law, I already know my mistake!”
“Oh!”
“Sister-in-law, is there anything else?” Qi Hao probed.
“Has your cousin been busy recently?” Chi Shuyan asked.
Qi Hao was afraid that his sister-in-law had heard that something was wrong with his cousin, so he immediately denied it and replied, “No, no, my cousin has been especially relaxed recently! He comes home from the company on time every evening!”
Chi Shuyan: …
“Really, Sister-in-law, my cousin is especially idle!” Qi Hao said anxiously.
After confirming that Qi Zhenbai was fine, Chi Shuyan didn’t say much. However, since this man was so free but didn’t answer her call, did that mean that he wanted to keep his distance from her?
Chi Shuyan actually felt that when they were in the village, the man had been quite solicitous toward her, but in the blink of an eye, he wanted to keep his distance from her. She had probably misunderstood.
Fine, Chi Shuyan was conflicted. However, she was the one who had resolved to break up back then, and had planned to walk the cultivation path. Forget it, she couldn’t be bothered to think too much about relationships. Since the other party was fine, she wouldn’t pester him anymore. She would keep her distance!
Qi Hao didn’t know that his words had dug a huge pit for his cousin. Before Qi Hao could say anything else, his sister-in-law had already said goodbye and hung up.
After his sister-in-law hung up, Qi Hao felt uneasy. He sat on the couch and didn’t go anywhere. He wanted to ask his mother about his cousin, mainly if he was well and if he had woken up.
Unfortunately, Grandpa Qi had blocked all information about Qi Zhenbai, and only Father Qi knew a little. Qi Hao’s mother didn’t know anything at all. As soon as Qi Hao asked, Second Aunt Qi couldn’t help but say, “Kids shouldn’t ask so many questions!”
Qi Hao was a bit unconvinced and was about to lose his temper, when Second Brother Qi suddenly came downstairs. Qi Hao simply leaned toward his father and couldn’t wait to ask about his cousin.
Second Brother Qi also knew that his son and Zhenbai were closer than brothers. He wasn’t as impatient as his wife, and instead told him that Zhenbai had woken up.
Qi Hao was excited. “Dad, is my cousin really awake? Then I’ll go upstairs and see him now!”
Before Qi Hao could run away, Second Brother Qi hurriedly grabbed the kid and frowned. “Don’t disturb your cousin yet. We’ll see him later!”
Qi Hao didn’t notice that although his father said that his cousin had woken up, his frown deepened and his face was very solemn and unsightly. He found an excuse to send this kid away. After Qi Hao obediently left, Second Brother Qi’s wife sensed something wasn’t right and couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong? Is Zhenbai really awake? Are you okay?”
“He did wake up, but Celestial Master Zhang said that he’s taking Zhenbai back to Longhu Mountain!”
