Chapter 777: Something Strange About the Woman
It was best to stay as far away from this woman as possible. Chi Shuyan had the vague feeling that the other party wasn’t a good person. She wanted to persuade Qi Zhenbai’s ex-subordinate to stay away from her, but hearing his words about his goddess, Chi Shuyan deliberated for a moment and didn’t know what to say.
At that moment, the man beside her suddenly said, “If you don’t want to die, you better stay away from that woman! She isn’t as simple as she looks!”
Qi Zhenbai naturally had the same thought as his wife. It went against the natural order of things; something wasn’t right. How could a woman in her forties look like a young girl, just by taking care of her looks?
He refused to believe that there was nothing wrong with that woman!
He had once been in the special forces, so his sense of smell was very sharp. He had vaguely sensed a trace of blood on the other party just now. This woman wasn’t as simple as she looked.
If it were someone else saying this, Yan Youwei would definitely have something to say. However, Yan Youwei didn’t doubt the boss’s words. After thinking seriously for a while, he stuttered, “Boss, but Sister Shen is really nice and kind!”
Qi Zhenbai narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “Did you learn from a dog all these years? Can a person’s goodness and kindness be seen from their face?”
Chi Shuyan patted the man’s arm at that moment to stop him. This man was too sharp-tongued. However, Yan Youwei didn’t think so. Thinking back to the boss’s hellish drills in the past, his sharp tongue now was simply too gentle!
Chi Shuyan also spoke up at that moment. “Brother Yan, I think it’s already very good if an ordinary 40-year-old woman can still look like she’s in her 30s. As for this Miss Shen, if Zhenbai hadn’t mentioned her age just now, I really would have thought she was only 18 or 19 years old. Don’t you think that’s strange?”
Yan Youwei had been enchanted by Shen Rongyin’s face before. In addition, her reputation in the military was very good. She usually smiled when she saw people, and she never put on airs with the lower-ranked soldiers or recruits, and smiled kindly at them. Hence, Yan Youwei had subconsciously ignored this crucial point. Now that Chi Shuyan had pointed it out, Yan Youwei’s face immediately turned a little solemn.
Speaking of which, Yan Youwei was also a materialist and didn’t believe in superstitions, and didn’t consider the possibility of dark arts. After racking his brain, he thought that maybe Sister Shen had been specially blessed by the heavens, so she was especially good at taking care of herself?
As if!
He didn’t believe this absurd excuse. He could only say that Sister Shen might have some secret skincare formula.
It was said that Sister Shen’s mother was from a scholarly family which had left behind many ancient Chinese medical prescriptions.
Yan Youwei used this excuse as he did his best to give an explanation on Shen Rongyin’s behalf. “Sister-in-law, Sister Shen’s mother is from a scholarly family. Her family once produced a generation of imperial physicians, and they’re very famous. It’s said that the family has a lot of pill formulas for skincare!”
Chi Shuyan didn’t say anything and understood what Yan Youwei was trying to say. To be honest, very few people believed in superstitions. The young man in front of her probably wouldn’t think of dark arts either.
Of course, she wasn’t encouraging everyone to believe in superstitions. Some overly exaggerated feudal superstitions were indeed harmful and untrustworthy, but there were some that it was still better to revere. As the saying went, it was better to believe than not.
Qi Zhenbai was silent and didn’t say anything.
Without waiting for the two to speak, Yan Youwei suddenly said, “By the way, Boss, didn’t you ask me to help look into someone before? Speaking of which, that person is quite close to Sister Shen!”
