Chapter 487: Dealing with a Malicious Ghost (3)
Outside the hospital, Chi Shuyan was a bit sleepy. Qi Zhenbai pulled his wife into his arms, and she leaned her head on his chest. He used his trench coat to block the wind for her, and said in a deep voice, “Let’s go and sleep in the car first!”
It was four in the morning, and there was a huge difference in temperature during the day and at night in the capital; the wind was especially strong at night.
Chi Shuyan pondered and sighed as she got into the car. “I probably won’t be able to sleep tonight!”
Qi Zhenbai had seen the peculiar expression on his wife’s face earlier. He narrowed his eyes and pursed his lips. “Will that ghost appear later?”
Chi Shuyan was originally a little sleepy, but startled awake at the man’s words. “How did you know?”
Qi Zhenbai said indifferently, “Your expression was strange earlier!”
Chi Shuyan felt that this man was too observant, too good at reading people’s minds, and too smart; nothing could escape his eyes. As long as he wanted to know something, there was no way to hide it from him!
Chi Shuyan shuddered and felt that it would be too risky to hide anything from this man in the future. There was a risk of being discovered at any time.
But this little worry was quickly thrown to the back of her mind in the face of Zhou Manqing’s matter. Chi Shuyan nodded solemnly, which was rare for her, and replied, “You’re right. When we were in that woman’s ward just now, that ghost had been hiding there the entire time. This thing is a little smart and knows how to take advantage of a situation and to avoid harm. I wasn’t able to find its hiding place for a while. If I really made a move, I would just be beating the gra.s.s to alert the snake; I might as well pull it out of its hole. What I want to confirm now is if that ghost is the real Zhou Manqing!”
Of course, she still had her own thoughts. Looking at the current ‘Zhou Manqing,’ she knew that she wasn’t a good person. Whether or not the woman actually killed the real Zhou Manqing, Chi Shuyan still planned to teach her a lesson.
After a pause, Chi Shuyan asked, “What do you think I should do with that ghost if it really is Zhou Manqing? Should I really exterminate her?”
Qi Zhenbai had never cared about other people’s affairs, and his tone was as indifferent as ever. “Wife, haven’t you already made up your mind? Just do whatever you want!”
Seeing his wife yawn repeatedly, he pursed his lips. “Are you really sleepy?”
The backseat was pretty wide, so he simply had his wife rest her head on his lap to sleep.
Chi Shuyan thought that it would definitely be uncomfortable if she slept like this, so she rejected him without thought.
In the end, Qi Zhenbai simply squeezed onto the backseat with his wife in his arms. Chi Shuyan’s height was still alright; she could still fit if she curled her legs. Qi Zhenbai was almost 1.9 meters tall, so it was very difficult for him to fit. He had to curl his long legs half around his wife’s before he could just fit.
But in this way, more than half of the man’s body was on top of her, almost suffocating her. Qi Zhenbai immediately hugged her and switched positions. He went down and his wife went up. The two of them were stuffed together in the backseat. Chi Shuyan finally heaved a sigh of relief, and her eyelids grew heavier.
“I’ll sleep for ten minutes. Wake me up in ten minutes.”
Qi Zhenbai patted his wife’s back and she fell asleep immediately. It wasn’t until half an hour later that she woke her up. As soon as Chi Shuyan woke up in a daze, she immediately thought of Zhou Manqing in the ward, and rubbed her eyes. “What time is it now?”
Qi Zhenbai grabbed the hand that his wife was rubbing her eyes with, and ma.s.saged her eyes for her instead. He said indifferently, “4:30 am!”
4:30 am?
Chi Shuyan immediately jerked and met the man’s sober gaze. It was 4:30 am?
Chi Shuyan hurriedly looked at the time and almost jumped in fright. Had half an hour really pa.s.sed?
Didn’t she tell this man to wake her up in ten minutes?
Hm, that Zhou Manqing woman wasn’t dead, was she?
Qi Zhenbai’s expression didn’t change. He pursed his lips and said coldly, “Didn’t you want to teach that woman a lesson?”
Chi Shuyan: …
