Chapter 1665 - 1665 Going Out
1665 Going Out
After Jiang Mingguang notified Yang Ji and the others of Chai Qing’s death, everyone rushed over with especially complicated and heavy hearts. However, Chi Shuyan, who had received the call from Feng Yuanlin while she was at the old Qi residence, was silent and unsurprised at word of Chai Qing’s death.
Fortunately, she had already eaten dinner at the old residence. Chi Shuyan looked at the study upstairs and then at the time. Her father probably still had something to discuss with Grandpa and Qi Zhenbai.
Seeing her father’s attitude toward the Qi family patriarch, Chi Shuyan finally felt a little more reassured. Her father probably wouldn’t make her choose. When she thought of the first look her father had given her when she returned to the old residence with her man, Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but feel flustered.
Until now, she hadn’t had a chance to talk to her father alone. Her father had also been talking to Grandpa.
Chi Shuyan was lost in thought. On the side, Qi Yunchang thought that her cousin-in-law was thinking about her cousin, and couldn’t help but say, “Sister-in-law, my cousin will definitely come downstairs later. If you’re bored, do you want to go for a walk?”
Qi Yunchang was quite timid, and Chi Shuyan hadn’t interacted much with her before, so when she suddenly heard her warm words, she smiled. Moving the phone away from her ear a little, she said gently, “It’s nothing. It’s just that I suddenly have something urgent to attend to. Yunchang, I have to go out first. Can you help me let your cousin know later?”
When Qi Yunchang heard that her sister-in-law was going out, she immediately frowned and said in surprise, “What? Sister-in-law, it’s so late, and you’re still going out? Where are you going? Grandpa just said that you and Cousin should stay in the old residence for a few nights, as well as Uncle Chi.”
Chi Shuyan also knew that she really couldn’t leave the Qi residence at that moment, not to mention Qi Zhenbai. Her father had rushed to the capital today and was still upstairs talking to Grandpa. Her father would probably want to talk to her tonight. How could she leave him here at the old residence and leave now?
But Brother Feng had found her at the last minute for something, and that woman, Chai Qing, was suddenly dead. She had to go no matter what. After thinking about it, Chi Shuyan immediately blinked at this little cousin and said, “Yunchang, I’ll go and come back quickly. I’ll be right back. If Grandpa or your cousin asks later, just say that I really have something urgent to attend to and have to go out for a while. I’ll be back immediately. Your cousin and I will stay at the old residence tonight. Also, can you help me let my father know?”
In the end, Qi Yunchang nodded obediently. Chi Shuyan immediately beamed and thanked her. She immediately slipped out of the old residence. Before she left, Chi Shuyan explained things to Mother Qi.
When she reached the door, she saw Qi Hao messing around on the lawn outside the old residence. After thinking for a moment, she simply grabbed him and told him to help drive her.
“Okay, Sister-in-law, wait for me.” Qi Hao was naturally very happy. He had been bored to death lately. It would be best if Sister-in-law could take him to join in the fun, so Qi Hao immediately went to the garage to get a car.
After Qi Hao went to the garage, Chi Shuyan was going to continue talking to Brother Feng, but he thought that her sudden silence meant that the signal was bad, so he hung up and called her again.
Chi Shuyan immediately picked up. “Brother Feng, send me your location. I’ll head over right now.”
Feng Yuanlin immediately sent her his location.
Chi Shuyan glanced at the location before sending a few more messages to her man, telling him to entertain her father first. She had something urgent to attend to, so she had to go out first. Qi Hao would be driving her, so he didn’t have to worry. She mentioned that they would be staying at the old residence tonight, and said that she would come back immediately after she was done.
By the time Chi Shuyan sent the messages, Qi Hao had almost reached her with the car. Before she got into the car, Father Qi suddenly saw her and walked over with sharp eyes. He asked nervously where she was going.
Chi Shuyan also knew about the conflict between her man and Father Qi. Although she was on her man’s side, Father Qi was Qi Zhenbai’s father, after all, so she had to show him some respect. She couldn’t rashly get involved in the conflict between the father and son. Besides, Father Qi might have a problem with Qi Zhenbai, but he really treated his daughter-in-law well. No matter how she defended her man, she still had to give Father Qi some face. At Father Qi’s question, Chi Shuyan immediately replied, “Dad, Brother Feng needs my help with something urgent. I have to go out first and will be back soon!”
Father Qi knew a thing or two about his son’s good friends, especially Zhu Bocheng and Feng Yuanlin. After listening to his daughter-in-law and seeing that his nephew, Qi Hao, was with her, Father Qi was relieved. He didn’t ask more, and just nodded and instructed Qi Hao in the car, “Drive carefully and bring your sister-in-law home early!”
How could Qi Hao not respond to Father Qi’s instructions? He immediately nodded and said, “Got it, Uncle. When Sister-in-law is done, I’ll bring her home immediately!”
Father Qi nodded and said to his daughter-in-law, “Stay at the old residence tonight for a few days!”
Chi Shuyan immediately replied, “Okay!”
Father Qi even opened the car door for Chi Shuyan, who could only get in first. Qi Hao started the engine and drove away. Before he left, Chi Shuyan rolled down the window and said to Father Qi, “Dad, go back in first. Zhenbai and I will definitely stay at the old residence tonight. I’ll be back later!”
After the car drove away, Chi Shuyan finally heaved a sigh of relief. In front of Father Qi, she was still a little restrained. Next to her, Qi Hao couldn’t help but say as he drove, “Sister-in-law, I think my uncle must be worried that you and my cousin will leave the old residence. I think he’s just tough on the outside, but soft on the inside. He keeps scolding and blaming my cousin, but in fact, he still cares a lot about him. His expression just now was nervous!”
