Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

1604 Seeing Another Rotten Peach Blossom

When Chi Shuyan left the police station, she sighed. Speaking of which, she had the best impression of Yang Ji in this group. Previously, before she went to the hospital, she had foreseen Yang Ji’s tragic death.

It had to be said that Yang Ji died a wretched death. Not only was his face peeled off, he was also nailed down alive.

That was worse than death.

It wouldn’t have mattered if she hadn’t run into him, but since she had, she naturally had to help him escape this calamity.

Moreover, she had a feeling that all the suspicious points and breakthroughs had to do with Yuan Yuan or Xia Mingcheng. Thinking this, Chi Shuyan immediately called Brother Feng and asked him to get Xia Mingcheng’s phone number from Yang Ji and the others.

As for Yuan Yuan, Chi Shuyan felt that she was too sharp and a little strange. She couldn’t put her finger on it, but Yuan Yuan was predisposed to seek benefits and avoid harm, so Chi Shuyan chose to contact Xia Mingcheng first.

Feng Yuanlin was also very fast, and sent her Xia Mingcheng’s number in two minutes.

As soon as Chi Shuyan got Xia Mingcheng’s number, she immediately called him and arranged to meet at a nearby cafe.

At first, she was worried that it would be a little difficult to ask him out, but she didn’t expect Xia Mingcheng to be so easy to talk to. When he heard that she wanted to meet him, he immediately agreed.

Chi Shuyan sat in the cafe.

Taking advantage of the fact that Xia Mingcheng had yet to arrive, she ordered a cup of coffee. She didn’t know what he liked to drink, so she simply ordered for herself first.

Chi Shuyan took a sip of coffee, and her phone on the table suddenly rang. She glanced at the screen and saw that it was Qi Zhenbai, so she immediately picked up the call.

The man’s voice was especially deep and pleasant to the ear. “What are you doing? When are you coming home?”

Chi Shuyan told him about her coffee appointment.

“Who are you meeting? A man or a woman?”

Chi Shuyan: …

Chi Shuyan told him the truth even as she murmured in her heart that this was the sixth time the man had called her today.

However, Chi Shuyan didn’t find it annoying. Instead, she felt that after being apart for a while, they were now more clingy than before.

Qi Zhenbai was good in all respects, but to be honest, his desire to control everything was worse than before.

Of course, she couldn’t rule out the possibility that they had just gotten together and were still in the honeymoon phase.

But as the saying went, it was the pot calling the kettle black.

Chi Shuyan didn’t dislike the other party’s desire to control things. On the contrary, she enjoyed his care. If he didn’t care about her, he wouldn’t bother her.

Thinking this, Chi Shuyan took the initiative to explain the situation without needing Qi Zhenbai to ask more questions.

In the Qi family residence, although Qi Zhenbai still felt a sense of crisis, the jealousy in his heart was swept away when he heard his wife’s words. His expression was especially gentle and patient.

Grandpa Qi was especially gratified and happy when he saw this. Needless to say, this kid was definitely on the phone with Shuyan.

As for Celestial Master Zhang, he was even more moved when he saw Young Master Qi’s gentle appearance.

“By the way, how are things at the old residence? How’s Grandpa?” Chi Shuyan asked anxiously. She was worried that Qi Zhenbai had gone back because something had happened to Grandpa. However, when she had seen Grandpa before, he had appeared fine.

Qi Zhenbai replied, “Grandpa was discharged from the hospital and is fine. He said for you to come back to the old residence soon for a reunion dinner! I’ll go home in the evening. There’s nothing else!”

Chi Shuyan sighed with relief when she heard that Grandpa was fine. She was reluctant to hang up, and they spoke for a while. It was only when she saw Xia Mingcheng enter the cafe that she found an excuse to hang up.

After hanging up, she placed her phone on the table. Afraid that Xia Mingcheng wouldn’t recognize her, Chi Shuyan stretched out her hand to draw his attention.

When Xia Mingcheng saw her, he strode over and sat down.

Chi Shuyan didn’t forget that the other party was Yan Liling’s boyfriend, whom she had only met once. This time, she examined him more carefully. She remembered that when she went to the film crew last time, she heard that Yan Liling and her boyfriend had a particularly good relationship, and that her boyfriend had invested in that movie. Chi Shuyan hadn’t dwelled on it at that time. After all, she wasn’t familiar with Yan Liling.

But now, she couldn’t help but study the other party to see if he really was a ‘good boyfriend’ and not a scumbag.

After sizing him up, she realized that the man in front of her had lost a lot of weight. His eyes were bruised and his face wasn’t good. His face was also especially pale, and it was obvious that his health wasn’t good.

Chi Shuyan couldn’t see anything from this. When she handed him the menu, she examined his physiognomy. In general, Xia Mingcheng’s physiognomy was really good. His earlobes were thick, and his family was blessed with good fortune. He was good-looking, with a full forehead and a straight and full nose. This meant that he was honest and sincere.

The only bad thing was that Xia Mingcheng had rocky relationships, and he had recently incited a rotten peach blossom. If this rotten peach blossom wasn’t handled properly, it was very likely that it would become a Peach Blossom Doom, and he would lose his life. Even his family would suffer from this rotten peach blossom.

Not only that, she also realized that the other party was fated to be tangled up with this rotten peach blossom. If this continued, it was very likely he would marry the other party, but if he really did, he would lose his life in the worst case scenario, or his family would be ruined at the very least.

None of them were good outcomes!

The more Chi Shuyan looked, the deeper her frown became. Xia Mingcheng was stunned and a bit helpless under the gaze of the young lady in front of him. In fact, Xia Mingcheng had been good-looking since he was young. He was long used to women looking at him with burning gazes, but he clearly felt that the young lady’s gaze was different from other women’s hot and infatuated gazes.

The young lady in front of him suddenly said, “I see that you’ve provoked a Peach Blossom Doom recently. If someone in your family has been pressing you to get married recently, don’t do it if you don’t want to lose your life or your family to be ruined. Of course, you can choose not to believe me.”

Xia Mingcheng: …
