1709 Resolution (1)
The afternoon classes weren’t easy, but Chi Shuyan was focused on what she needed to do that evening, so she was a bit absent-minded. Who knew if it was because she was preoccupied, but the afternoon passed especially quickly. A few minutes after classes ended, she received a call from Brother Feng, who said that he was already waiting at the gate and told her not to forget about him.
Chi Shuyan immediately replied, “Okay, Brother Feng!”
Chi Shuyan said a few words to her deskmate and was about to leave, but just as she reached the door, a classmate called out to her. Chi Shuyan wasn’t familiar with her and didn’t usually talk to her, so she looked at her in surprise.
The other party asked inquisitively, “Shuyan, I heard that Yang Lan suddenly disappeared from the hospital. When I went to Director Zhang’s office today, I heard him on a call with the hospital. You’re especially close to her. Do you know anything about what happened to her?”
“Then, do you know when Zhen Yu will be coming to class? She’s been absent a long time, right?” the gossipy female classmate asked again curiously.
Chi Shuyan shook her head helplessly. “I’m not sure!”
The gossipy classmate:
The gossipy classmate originally wanted to continue asking, but Chi Shuyan’s face and tone were too cold. She could only watch as Chi Shuyan said a simple goodbye before she turned around and left.
When Chi Shuyan left the school gate, she saw Brother Feng’s familiar car. Bag in one hand, she strode in the direction of the car. Feng Yuanlin was still looking for Shuyan, but couldn’t find her. He was about to open the car door and get out to look for her, when there was a knock on the passenger seat window. Feng Yuanlin immediately rolled down the window, and when he saw Shuyan’s face, he was amused and immediately unlocked the car. When Shuyan got in, Feng Yuanlin heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Shuyan, I thought you left first. You scared me!”
Chi Shuyan smiled and teased, “Brother Feng, you’re so brave, how can I scare you?”
“That’s right, that’s right. If Zhenbai finds out that I let you risk your life on your own, your man probably won’t let me off in the future!” Feng Yuanlin shot back.
Chi Shuyan was amused by Brother Feng’s teasing. The two chatted for a while before they quickly got to the point. Feng Yuanlin said that he had already gotten Xia Mingcheng to lure that Yuan woman away in the evening. Back then, he had secretly envied Xia Mingcheng’s luck with women. Who would have thought that he would attract such a poisonous and deranged one? This kid still needed to put on an act and play along with this poisonous woman. Thinking of Xia Mingcheng’s ashen and unsightly face when he called Yuan Yuan, Feng Yuanlin really sympathized with this kid.
Feng Yuanlin couldn’t help but tell Shuyan a little about this, but Chi Shuyan’s attention was mostly on Xia Mingcheng luring Yuan Yuan out of her place. She was in a good mood.
The two quickly arrived at Yuan Yuan’s place. Feng Yuanlin planned to go upstairs with Shuyan, but she didn’t plan to let him do so; instead, she wanted him to keep watch downstairs.
Feng Yuanlin:
“No, Shuyan, Xia Mingcheng is with that Yuan woman, so there’s no need to keep an eye on things down here. I’ll go upstairs with you. If something happens to you, I can help you. I can’t help you with big things, but I can help you with small ones!” Feng Yuanlin immediately replied.
“No, Brother Feng, help me keep an eye out down here!” Chi Shuyan said.
Feng Yuanlin’s lips twitched fiercely when he thought of how Shuyan was the one who rushed out every time he was with her. He was a big man, but it was Shuyan who protected him.
“Shuyan, don’t think I’m too weak. If I let you go upstairs alone tonight, how much do you want to bet that your man will rush to my house to settle accounts with me the next day?”
The two were in a deadlock, until someone knocked on the car window. Chi Shuyan rolled down the window and was quite surprised to see Gu Yunzheng’s familiar face.
Feng Yuanlin didn’t expect to run into Gu Yunzheng here. Wasn’t this too much of a coincidence?
Seeing that it really was the two of them, Gu Yunzheng heaved a sigh of relief and immediately said, “It’s really the two of you. I was worried that I had the wrong person!” After saying that, Gu Yunzheng greeted Shuyan first, then Feng Yuanlin.
Without waiting for Feng Yuanlin to ask why he was here, Gu Yunzheng looked at Chi Shuyan and asked, “Master Chi, did you also sense an evil energy in this neighborhood?”
Feng Yuanlin:
Chi Shuyan:
Gu Yunzheng continued, “There’s something wrong with this neighborhood. When I drove by in the morning a couple of days ago, my compass started spinning and I followed it to this neighborhood. Unfortunately, before I could confirm which building the evil energy was coming from, it suddenly disappeared without a trace. I’ve been camped out here for almost two days, but unfortunately, I didn’t discover anything. Master Chi, did you notice any buildings with evil energy?”
Chi Shuyan’s eyes suddenly flickered, and she said to Brother Feng, “Celestial Master Gu and I will go upstairs. Brother Feng, you should stay here and help us keep an eye out!”
Feng Yuanlin:
Without waiting for Feng Yuanlin to reply, Chi Shuyan opened the car door and immediately got out.
Feng Yuanlin could only watch the two leave, but seeing how determined Shuyan was, he could only listen obediently. Moreover, there was someone with Shuyan, so he could relax.
On the other side, Gu Yunzheng thought of the strange man back then who was connected to Master Chi. He wanted to say something, but hesitated. If he wasn’t wrong, there was an extremely thick baleful aura on the man, which was being forcefully suppressed. It was a pity that the baleful aura in the man’s body was too thick. It would be fine if it really could be forcefully suppressed, but if that aura broke out one day, the consequences would be unthinkable.
This kind of thing wasn’t good for people, nor for those around them. He remembered how a good friend of his had become tainted with a thick baleful aura for some reason. In the end, not only did he die tragically, his family and those close to him also ran into bad luck.
He didn’t know if Master Chi was aware that the other party was suppressing the baleful aura, so Gu Yunzheng feigned confusion and probed, “Master Chi, last time
“The person who picked you up looked familiar. Is that your boyfriend? Are you still dating?”
