Chapter 257: Sister-in-law, Someone Has an Eye on My Brother!
At the Qi family residence, Qi Hao was glad that a guest had come. His grandfather had to receive the guest, so had yet to read the report on the rice. Without knowing what the situation was like, it was a small escape for Qi Hao.
Of course, Qi Hao had no choice but to show Perfected Zhang respect in the past because of how highly his grandfather valued the man. Now, however, Qi Hao felt that his sister-in-law was the most powerful. Although Longhu Mountain was very famous, he still felt that his sister-in-law was the most powerful.
He had a good impression of Perfected Zhang and knew that the man had been helping to take care of his brother’s health. However, he was utterly speechless at the female disciple whom Perfected Zhang had brought this time.
Qi Hao didn’t have a good impression of this woman, who from the start looked down on them like they were mere mortals. His sister-in-law was even more powerful, but didn’t have this pompous attitude.
Qi Hao complained silently on the side. When he spoke to his cousins, Qi Yunxuan and Qi Yunchang, Qi Yunchang also quietly grumbled about this pompous Li Sangyu whom Perfected Zhang had brought with him.
“Lower your voice, don’t let your parents hear you!”
The elders of the Qi family still believed in ghosts and gods, and this Perfected Zhang was very famous in Longhu Mountain and even the capital. If not for the Qi family’s century-old history, they might not have been able to invite this Perfected Zhang to treat Zhenbai, which was what he had been doing all this time.
So, the elders of the Qi family were still a little more tolerant of this proud female disciple, Li Sangyu. After all, she had a good master.
Moreover, when it came to Celestial Masters, it was better not to offend them.
Not long after, Father Qi, the eldest son of the Qi family, came down from the study and asked, “Has Zhenbai returned yet?”
It was Second Uncle Qi who replied, “Not yet; should I send someone to watch the door?”
Father Qi’s abilities were somewhat mediocre, but he cared about his son, Zhenbai, very much. Besides, the old man valued Zhenbai the most. This son of his also had a serious temperament, so Father Qi didn’t dote on him too much, and even revered him more.
Before long, Qi Zhenbai came in with his usual cold and expressionless face.
Why did Qi Hao and his cousins feel that their eldest cousin’s face was even colder than usual? Qi Hao secretly wondered what kind of stimulation his brother had suffered because of his sister-in-law.
Li Sangyu, who had been looking down on the Qi family, saw the man at that moment. Her eyes lit up and she looked at the man who stood out from the crowd with a curious and slightly heated gaze.
Qi Zhenbai had always been sharp. As soon as he entered the door, he sensed a scorching gaze on him. His deep, piercing stare was cold and like a bolt of lightning. Even Li Sangyu, who claimed to be no ordinary person, felt her almost heart stop at the man’s cold, piercing eyes. She turned pale, then flushed.
Qi Zhenbai ignored the strange woman and nodded at Father Qi and the Qi uncles before going upstairs.
The elders of the Qi family hadn’t seen it, but the Qi family’s younger generation saw the change in Li Sangyu’s expression. Li Sangyu, who had been acting high and mighty and looked down on the Qi family, then took the initiative to talk to Qi Yunchang.
Qi Yunchang was dumbstruck.
Qi Hao and Qi Yunxuan looked at each other. Qi Yunxuan couldn’t help but say, “Holy sh*t, this woman isn’t interested in our eldest cousin, is she?!”
“Is she worthy?” Qi Hao was very disdainful. He only had one sister-in-law in his heart. If this woman wanted to be his sister-in-law, she should scram as soon as possible. Although he felt that his brother wouldn’t like such a woman, Qi Hao still felt a sense of crisis for his sister-in-law.
He secretly took out her phone and typed a message: Sister-in-law, a woman has taken a fancy to my brother. You must keep a close eye on my brother from now on!
After a while, Qi Hao typed another line: Sister-in-law, you’re the only one I acknowledge as my brother’s wife! Sister-in-law, I love you like a mouse loves rice!
