Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser Chapter 1612 - 1612 Ring?

Chapter 1612 - 1612 Ring?

1612 Ring?
Chi Shuyan came back not long after she went upstairs with Grandpa. Most of the Qi family knew that the old man had most likely stuffed something into Zhenbai’s wife’s hands.
But the Qi family wasn’t so short-sighted. The old man could do whatever he wanted. Only Third Aunt Qi made some noise inwardly. As for Second Aunt, she definitely had no complaints since Zhenbai’s wife treated her son well.
The dinner at the Qi residence was quite happy, but Father Qi came back halfway, and the atmosphere turned awkward.
Fortunately, Second Uncle and Third Uncle Qi were there to smooth things over. As for Father Qi, even if he had some objections to his son, he didn’t dare flare up in front of Grandpa, so the meal went smoothly.!!
The husband and wife didn’t stay in the Qi residence for long. Qi Zhenbai found an excuse to leave the old residence first. Grandpa Qi said unhappily, “This house is so big. Why can’t you and your wife stay here?”
As he said this, the old man’s eyes swept over Father Qi. Father Qi didn’t dare get mad at all, and acted like a filial son the entire time. The old man continued, “Besides, this old residence is under my name. Who would dare drive my grandson and granddaughter-in-law away?”
Father Qi felt even more embarrassed and stiff at these words. Chi Shuyan snuck a look at her father-in-law’s face and felt that if it wasn’t for Grandpa, he would definitely be angry. However, the old man was Father Qi’s weak point. At this point, Father Qi didn’t dare not give him face, and could only hold it in.
Although Chi Shuyan didn’t understand what conflict Father Qi and Qi Zhenbai had, she was naturally biased toward Qi Zhenbai.
Qi Zhenbai’s face didn’t change as he insisted on leaving the old residence. In the end, Grandpa Qi sighed. “It’s fine for a husband and wife to stay outside, but don’t forget to come home from time to time!”
Qi Zhenbai nodded. “Yes, Grandpa!”
Looking at the backs of the two children, Grandpa Qi sighed. Mother Qi couldn’t help but wipe her tears and grumble to Father Qi, “My son and daughter-in-law are gone now. Are you satisfied?”
This time, Mother Qi didn’t even consider Grandpa Qi before she turned around and went back inside after her rebuke.
Father Qi was so angry that his face flushed red. He couldn’t help but say to the old man, “Dad, what that unfilial son did to even Fourth Bro…”
Before Father Qi could finish speaking, the old man interrupted him, especially when he heard him mention Fourth Brother again. It was rare for him to get angry. “Shut up. If you don’t know how to speak, don’t. Besides, is Fourth Brother’s death Zhenbai’s fault alone?”
The old man’s words rendered Father Qi speechless.
Fourth Brother was naturally a sore spot in the old man’s heart, but Fourth Brother had brought it on himself. What could the old man say? Not to mention, whether it was Fourth Brother or Zhenbai, one was his own son and the other his grandson, both of whom were his flesh and blood.
Since they were his flesh and blood, who was right and who was wrong depended on how they had conducted themselves!
He also increasingly understood now that it was Fourth Brother who had a death wish back then, while Zhenbai hadn’t deliberately targeted him. Zhenbai really couldn’t be blamed for what happened to Fourth Brother.
As for Father Qi, Grandpa Qi also understood his soft-hearted character. It might not be that he really didn’t care about his son. Back then, when Father Qi found out that Fourth Brother Qi had harmed Zhenbai, he was so angry that he wanted to kick him a few times. He even wanted to fight him to the death.
But now, the one who was in trouble wasn’t Zhenbai, but Fourth Brother Qi, so Father Qi thought about how Fourth Brother was his younger brother, but forgot that Zhenbai was his own son.
Speaking of which, Father Qi really hadn’t done his best by Zhenbai. Not only had he neglected his son since he was young, how he treated him depended on his mood. He treated his son a little better only when he felt more fatherly, but usually ignored him most of the time.
Did he really think that Zhenbai would understand his thoughts?
There had long been a rift between the father and son.
Father Qi would regret it sooner or later!
The old man pondered for a moment before he had Father Qi follow him upstairs to the study.
The others looked at each other in dismay as Father Qi followed the old man. Qi Hao gloated the most at his uncle’s meek appearance. He itched to take a photo and send it to his cousin to cheer him up!
Ever since they left the old residence, Chi Shuyan paid attention to the man’s face from time to time in the car. Seeing that there was no change in his expression, she relaxed. However, this man was too good at hiding his emotions. Sometimes, she really couldn’t tell what he was thinking.
On the way, Qi Zhenbai glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and said indifferently, “What are you looking at?”
Chi Shuyan already felt a little guilty, and under the man’s oppressive gaze, she felt even more guilty. It wasn’t good for her to ask about his relationship with Father Qi, so she could only take out a box from her pocket and take a closer look. It was a small, square sandalwood box.
It looked a little old. Grandpa had given it to her just now, and Chi Shuyan hadn’t seen what was inside. She couldn’t help but say, “Grandpa gave this to me just now. Do you want to take a look?”
Qi Zhenbai had been raised by the old man since he was young, and he knew very well what the old man had in his collection. Seeing his wife take out the sandalwood box, his pupils contracted and surprise flashed through his eyes. He quickly calmed down and his thin lips curved up. “Open it yourself!”
Chi Shuyan thought that the man next to her was as curious as she was. She opened the box and saw a key inside.
A key?
At that moment, the man next to her said lightly, “The old man has a box of antiques in the bank. You can take them out with this key!”
What Qi Zhenbai didn’t say was that this box of antiques was the most valuable thing that Grandpa possessed. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it was priceless. Not only were there priceless antique jewelry in the box, there were also famous paintings and unique books. Grandpa valued and cared about this box of antiques very much. Qi Zhenbai didn’t expect that Grandpa would actually give this box of things to his wife!
There was a ripple of an expression in the man’s calm eyes; he was quite moved.
Because it was late and there was no light in the car, Chi Shuyan didn’t notice the man’s expression. Instead, she was shocked when she heard his words. The man’s tone was calm, and he had only said that they were “antiques,” but based on her understanding of this man and the Qi family, they would definitely be priceless.
Just as she sucked in her breath, the man next to her took out something from his pocket and tossed it to her. “Catch!”
Chi Shuyan quickly caught the item. It was dark, and Chi Shuyan could only feel it out. The more she felt it, the more she felt that it was in the shape of a ring.
Wait?
This man finally remembered to buy their wedding rings?
Something wasn’t right, though.
Why was the ring a little thick in shape, and the carvings seemed a little ugly?
Chi Shuyan was curious, but she didn’t want the man to know what she was thinking, so she could only put the ring in her pocket. She would look at it when they got home.
Not long after, the car drove into the villa’s garage.
The husband and wife went inside the villa. This time, they ran into Chef Li and the two little guys in the living room.
Chef Li had long known that Qi Zhenbai was staying here, and his face was very calm and respectful. On the other hand, Han Yu and Li Yu, especially Li Yu, were a little agitated.
He immediately blurted out, “Why are you here?” After saying that, he looked unhappy and wanted to question Chi Shuyan a few more times, but Chef Li covered his mouth, and was ready to carry Li Yu back to his room.
Chi Shuyan was a bit amused by the agitated little guy, and immediately said to Chef Li, “Chef Li, don’t cover his mouth; let him speak.”
As she spoke, she gave the man next to her a gloating look, and used the excuse of taking a shower to leave. She left the man in the living room to get along with everyone else.
The man was very calm, as if he didn’t see the gloating on his wife’s face. He even took the initiative to go over and pick up the two kids. Unfortunately, they seemed even more afraid of him than before and were very repulsed.
Li Yu was the first to cry out, “Chef Li, this royal one wants to sleep, this royal one wants to sleep! Carry this royal one back to my room! Hurry, carry this royal one back to my room!”
Han Yu’s little body trembled. He felt that the man walking toward them was too dangerous and scary, like a huge beast or a terrifying demon king that could swallow them up at any moment. Moreover, he and the Ninth Prince didn’t like the aura around the man.
Chi Shuyan didn’t know how Li Yu and Han Yu felt at that moment. As she went up the stairs with a smile on her face, she watched Qi Zhenbai interact with the two kids in the living room. The man, who was sitting upright in the living room, seemed to sense something, and suddenly looked up. Their eyes met, and the man’s gaze was deep, dark and bottomless.
Chi Shuyan could only hurriedly look away and go back to her room to take a shower.
