Chapter 149: Holy Mother, What Kind of Luck Is This?
Wang Xuewen looked at the energetic Qi Hao, wiped his sweat and rejoiced. Fortunately, Haozi wasn’t serious and immediately realized that they were bosom friends. This back and forth, however, was scary enough. He frowned with some bitterness in his mouth. What a sin he had committed!
Wang Xuewen might grumble about Qi Hao in his heart, but he wasn’t slow to catch up to Qi Hao at all. After all, the Qi family’s roots were deep and the trees were big and shady. Even if his parents found out that he had snuck out when the time came, as long as Qi Hao didn’t turn around and complain, his parents would still give the Qi family some face.
Also… Wang Xuewen glanced at Qi Hao in front of him as if he was seeing a golden goose, and his eyes lit up. A powerful metaphysical figure like Master Chi had an extraordinary relationship with Ninth Master Qi. If he could cozy up to this golden thigh, win Master Chi’s favor, and obtain a tiny bit of guidance from her… he couldn’t help but laugh stupidly.
Qi Hao only felt like something was stabbing into his back, and when he turned around, he saw Wang Xuewen, that idiot, staring blankly at him. Standing in place, his stupid smile scared Qi Hao witless.
“Why are you grinning like an idiot?”
Wang Xuewen snapped back to his senses at Qi Hao’s shout and blurted out in embarrassment, “I’m just thinking about how Sister-in-law agreed to give us some pointers. I don’t know when she’ll come.”
Qi Hao heaved a sigh of relief. Ever since the trip to Yongning County, he had become a little sensitive, and thought that Wang Xuewen was possessed again. Looking at the obsequious and fawning Wang Xuewen, he bared his teeth and sneered ruthlessly, “She’s my sister-in-law, it’s none of your business!”
“No, don’t be like that!” Wang Xuewen wanted to cry without tears.
Qi Hao ignored him, turned around, opened the door, and entered Qi Yunxuan’s room.
“Can’t any of you respect my privacy? You barge in without even knocking!” In the room, Qi Yunxuan puffed up his cheeks and glared unhappily at the two people who came in. Qi Hao was strutting in the front, while Wang Xuewen followed behind him like a bullied little wife.
“Then go tell Brother Zhenbai on us.” Qi Hao’s sharp eyes saw Qi Yunxuan secretly hiding a box. He narrowed his eyes, took a big stride forward, and grabbed it. “What kind of shady stuff are you hiding?”
Qi Yunxuan glared at Qi Hao angrily and tried to grab it, but was still a beat too slow.
Wang Xuewen quivered with energy and immediately perked up, just like a dog that had smelled a bone. He moved to Qi Hao’s side, and when Qi Hao uncovered the box and saw stacks and stacks of yellow talismans, he snorted in disappointment; he had thought that Qi Yunxuan the rascal had been enlightened.
“Ah Xuan, tsk, tsk, you bought talismans from that charlatan swindler? Why are there so many?” As soon as Wang Xuewen thought of how they had tragically mistaken a charlatan for a Master and fake talismans for treasure, his eyes were like those of a young man who had once gone astray. He immediately said earnestly, “You better not let anyone fool you, kid. This line of business is a mix of good and bad. There are many charlatans and swindlers. People as shrewd and cautious as your brother and Brother Xuewen almost suffered a loss because of swindlers. You better stop fooling around with such feudal superstitions.”
Qi Yunxuan pursed his lips and was too lazy to speak. Anyway, everyone in the family thought he was doing nothing proper, so he snorted in disdain and took the opportunity to snatch the box back, protecting his treasure with all his heart.
Qi Hao looked at how obsessed Qi Yunxuan was and patted his head. “Hey, although your Brother Xuewen isn’t very bright, he’s right. Where the hell did you buy those talismans from? It’s not that I want to lecture you, but Brother Zhenbai would scold you too if he were in our shoes. You should stop while you’re ahead.” He changed the subject; when he recalled that swindler from last time, he gritted his teeth. He rolled up his sleeves and said fiercely, “If you don’t stop, I’ll smash his shop.”
However, when Qi Hao’s eyes swept over the webpage, his eyes instantly widened in disbelief. Holy mother, what kind of luck was this?
