1836 Old Liang Family Residence, Tearing Off the Mask

“Okay, everyone calm down for now,” Chi Shuyan suddenly said. Only then did Fang Yu calm down a little. He bit his lip and didn’t say anything else. Song Yanru still didn’t hesitate to say that she didn’t know anything. Fang Yu was so angry that he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth so hard he almost crushed his molars.

He was anxious for Song Yanru to tell the truth so that they could look for Lu Ningwen right away, but the Song woman in front of him was too cunning. Coupled with Celestial Master Chi’s attitude at that moment, Fang Yu was terrified, afraid that she would gradually be convinced.

Fang Yu was very indignant.

Sure enough, Celestial Master Chi believed the Song woman and planned to leave him and Brother Qi here with her. Fang Yu was so anxious that his face changed drastically. He struggled and fell to the ground in his agitation. Qi Hao let out a cry and staggered.

Fortunately, he steadied himself.

Fang Yu couldn’t be bothered with Qi Hao at that moment. Once he was on his own feet, he immediately wanted to interrupt Celestial Master Chi and the Song woman. Unfortunately, before he could speak, Qi Hao covered his mouth.

Chi Shuyan didn’t seem to see this scene. She continued calmly to Song Yanru, “Then, I’ll leave these two boys in your care first. Help me keep an eye on them here.” After a pause, Chi Shuyan didn’t forget to say to Fang Yu and her cousin. “Haozi, Fang Yu, stay here with Sister Song for now. I’ll go look for Lu Ningwen. When I find him, I’ll meet up with you right away.”

Qi Hao agreed especially readily, but Fang Yu was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead. The blood drained from his lips and his whole body trembled. He whimpered anxiously and his fingers twitched. He tried to pry Brother Qi’s hand away with all his might, but unfortunately, Brother Qi was much stronger.

Fang Yu could only continue to whimper and scream in fear.

He wouldn’t be surprised if that Song woman acted ruthlessly toward him and Brother Qi after Celestial Master Qi left. Thinking this, Qi Hao’s heart turned cold.

On the side, after listening to Master Chi and seeing Fang Yu’s deathly pale face, Song Yanru’s lips curved up in a strange arc, and Fang Yu happened to see it.

In an instant, Fang Yu’s blood and fear surged to the top of his head. His bones and the top of his head seemed to be filled with a dense, sharp chill.

No! No, he had to immediately expose this woman’s true colors in front of Celestial Master Chi. Fang Yu racked his brain, but the more he thought about it, the more he couldn’t think of anything. Fang Yu was so anxious that he wanted to pull out his hair. His eyes were red with fear and panic.

Qi Hao didn’t expect Fang Yu to be so traumatized. Taking advantage of the moment when Song Yanru was talking to his sister-in-law not far away, he hurriedly whispered in Fang Yu’s ear, “Don’t worry, my sister-in-law knows what she’s doing. She won’t abandon us.”

After spending so much time with his sister-in-law, Qi Hao understood this very well. His sister-in-law would never leave him in danger. Besides, his sister-in-law had already been wary of Song Yanru, so it was impossible for her to immediately believe Song Yanru’s one-sided words.

When his sister-in-law suddenly said that she wanted that Song woman to help take care of them, she most likely had another plan in mind. As a man, Qi Hao wasn’t afraid of a woman.

Who knew if it was because of Qi Hao’s words, but Fang Yu’s red eyes gradually regained their calm, and his mood gradually settled. He hesitated for a moment as he stared at Celestial Master Chi, who was chatting with the Song woman, and then at Brother Qi behind him.

Qi Hao whispered again, “Don’t worry, my sister-in-law won’t believe her over you.”

These words completely calmed Fang Yu down, and his anxiety eased a lot. As soon as Fang Yu calmed down, Qi Hao immediately let go of him. He was very smart. Afraid of arousing the suspicion of the Song woman, he specially said loudly, “Brother Fang, don’t worry. Since my sister-in-law wants us to stay with Sister Song, there’s definitely nothing wrong with her. You must have misunderstood her before. This place is especially strange. Is it something about this place?”

Chi Shuyan was very surprised by Haozi’s tacit understanding. Hearing his words, she noticed that the Song woman instantly smiled broadly. She deliberately echoed Fang Yu and said, “Haozi is right, Fang Yu. It might have been a misunderstanding before!”

Fang Yu gritted his teeth and chose not to say anything in the end.

“Okay, Sister Song, I’ll leave the two boys to you for now. I’ll go find Lu Ningwen first. Once I find him, I’ll meet you here,” Chi Shuyan said.

Song Yanru’s smile deepened and she immediately said, “Master Chi, don’t worry, I’ll definitely help you take good care of the two of them.”

At the mention of “care,” Song Yanru’s tone was heavy, and a trace of viciousness and ruthlessness flashed in the depths of her eyes. Her tone also became more excited because she couldn’t wait for the Chi woman in front of her to leave.

Chi Shuyan’s eyes darkened, but she didn’t stop, and turned around to leave first. Fang Yu had been a little relieved by Brother Qi’s words at first, but now that he saw that Celestial Master Chi didn’t hesitate to abandon them and leave, and even wanted them to stay with this poisonous Song woman, Fang Yu couldn’t help but suddenly shout, “Celestial Master Chi, I…”

Unfortunately, Song Yanru didn’t give Fang Yu a chance to speak. She suddenly walked up to him and blocked him as she interrupted, “Master Chi, don’t worry, I’ll definitely take good care of the two of them.” She paused for a moment, then turned her head and smiled brightly at Fang Yu; no matter how he looked at it, it was a sinister smile. “Fang Yu, you definitely misunderstood me. I’ll definitely take good care of you.”

The sinister voice made Fang Yu stagger back in panic. By the time he came back to his senses, Celestial Master Chi had already left the cave. Fang Yu was in a daze.
