Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

“Miss Shen is awake? Uncle Wei?” Chi Shuyan naturally knew why Uncle Wei wanted her to go to the Shen family. It was to uphold her father’s reputation. She was naturally more willing to go in her father’s place.

Wei Xiao nodded and said, “I’m afraid your father is still busy with the ‘living dead’ matter. If you go for a look, no one can say anything!”

Chi Shuyan vaguely felt that the crux of this entire matter was Shen Rongyin. Since this woman was determined not to let her father go, Chi Shuyan couldn’t rely on luck to keep her father away from her.

So, when she heard Uncle Wei say that the woman was awake, Chi Shuyan immediately agreed. “I understand, Uncle Wei! Don’t worry, I’ll go take a look now! No matter what, I still remember the Shen family’s kindness to my father!”

Wei Xiao wanted to speak, but hesitated. He patted Yan Yan’s shoulder and told her to go.

Chi Shuyan went to the Shen residence again. She originally thought that Commissar Shen and Mother Shen wouldn’t like her, but she didn’t expect them to be like different people today. It was fine with Commissar Shen; Chi Shuyan still had a fairly good impression of him. As for Mother Shen, however, her attitude toward Chi Shuyan could be said to be a complete U-turn and very enthusiastic.

As soon as she saw her, Mother Shen called out enthusiastically, “Yan Yan, why are you here? Did you hear that Rongyin has woken up? It’s all thanks to you. Yan Yan, if it wasn’t for you, Rongyin wouldn’t have woken up so quickly! By the way, where’s your dad?” At this point, Mother Shen patted her head and suddenly said, “How forgetful I am, your dad must have gone on patrol! Yan Yan, come for dinner with your dad tonight, and bring Chief Qi with you!”

Mother Shen sounded very grateful, but Chi Shuyan couldn’t see a trace of gratitude in her eyes. When she heard the other party mention Qi Zhenbai, Chi Shuyan frowned slightly.

Commissar Shen interrupted Mother Shen and said, “Yan Yan, Rongyin is in her room upstairs. Go up and take a look.”

Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief and nodded. “Okay, Commissar Shen, I’ll go up and see Aunt Shen first!”

Commissar Shen was all smiles. “Yan Yan, just call me Uncle Shen from now on!”

Chi Shuyan’s right eyelid twitched as she listened to Commissar Shen and Mother Shen’s words.

After Chi Shuyan went upstairs, Mother Shen’s face regained its usual coldness. There was no hint of enthusiasm at all.

Commissar Shen said faintly, “Alright, as an elder, you should treat this child better in the future. You know that Rongyin has always liked Chi Lingyan. Now that the Chi family is connected to the Qi family, it would be a good thing if Rongyin can really marry Chi Lingyan!”

Mother Shen originally wanted to say something, but she thought of what her husband had told her last night about the identity of the Qi family member. If Chi Lingyan’s daughter married into the Qi family, the Chi family would be incomparable.

Mother Shen had never liked Chi Lingyan and his daughter. At that moment, she couldn’t help but say in a sour tone, “Even if this little girl has hooked up with the Qi family now, who knows if she will be lucky enough to marry into the Qi family? Looking at her features, she’s much worse than our Rongyin. It’s impossible for her to be so lucky!”

Commissar Shen was very helpless against Mother Shen. How could he not hear her dark tone? He snorted coldly and said, “What do you mean by not lucky? She’s with him now. Didn’t you see his attitude toward Old Chi’s daughter? We’re not enemies with the Chi family now. If you want Rongyin to marry into the Chi family properly and don’t want Rongyin to hate you, don’t cause any more trouble!”

Commissar Shen’s words immediately rendered Mother Shen speechless. Shen Rongyin was Mother Shen’s weakness. She now knew that the Chi family was probably the best home for her daughter. The most important thing was that Rongyin liked Chi Lingyan too much. She could even risk her life for him. Mother Shen didn’t dare stop her anymore; she just wanted things to be good for her daughter.

Mother Shen couldn’t help but say, “Old Shen, that Chi rascal doesn’t know what’s good for him, and rejected Rongyin before. Can you accept him marrying Rongyin now?” Without waiting for Commissar Shen to speak, Mother Shen said ruthlessly, “I don’t care. My daughter risked her life for that rascal this time. If he doesn’t marry her, he’s ungrateful. If he dares to reject Rongyin and hurt her again, I’ll make it so that he can’t stay in the military!”

Commissar Shen’s eyes flashed. “Don’t worry, I’ll get him to agree. He’s responsible and values debts, and isn’t ungrateful. He won’t forget about Rongyin saving him. As long as he values debts, Rongyin getting married won’t be a problem. Our daughter will also get what she wants! However, you must coax Chi Lingyan’s daughter and get along well with her. You know that Chi Lingyan cares about his daughter the most right now!”

Mother Shen could only nod. She gritted her teeth and made up her mind to get Rongyin to fight for Chi Lingyan to have another son in the future. In any case, the more she looked at Chi Lingyan’s daughter, the more she disliked her. As for Chi Lingyan, if it wasn’t for her daughter, she wouldn’t even look at him.

As Chi Shuyan walked up the stairs, she released her divine senses and clearly heard Commissar Shen and Mother Shen’s words. Her eyes flashed coldly. Want her father to marry the Shen woman? No way! Her eyes flashed before her face regained its calm.

Only then did Chi Shuyan knock on Shen Rongyin’s door. Soon, Shen Rongyin’s weak voice rang out. “Come in!”

When Shen Rongyin saw her, she was pleasantly surprised and waved enthusiastically for her to go over. “Yan Yan, why are you here? Did you come especially to see me?”

Chi Shuyan pursed her lips and sized up the somewhat pale Shen Rongyin. She strode over and asked, “Aunt Shen, are you okay?”

When Chi Shuyan walked to the bed, Shen Rongyin immediately grabbed her hand enthusiastically. “Yan Yan, I really didn’t expect you to come and see me! That’s great. By the way, my parents told me that you saved me last night.”

After a pause, Shen Rongyin’s eyes were a bit probing. She feigned curiosity and asked innocently, “I didn’t expect you to be so capable, Yan Yan. By the way, I also heard that your teacher is a Celestial Master? Are there really Celestial Masters in this world? What’s your teacher’s name? Are they powerful?”

Chi Shuyan took in the probing look in the eyes of the woman in front of her.. She looked at the woman’s curious and “innocent” expression, and said without batting an eyelid, “I just became a disciple a year or two ago, and my abilities are just average. How can they be as exaggerated and powerful as you say, Aunt Shen? And my master seems to be just a grassroots Celestial Master!”
