1721 Karmic Payback
Chi Shuyan entered Brother Feng’s office. There was no one inside, so she found a seat and waited for him.
When Feng Yuanlin entered the office with his arm in a sling, he saw Shuyan deep in thought. He frowned. Who knew what she was thinking, but it was rare to see Shuyan like this. Feng Yuanlin was curious. He walked over and poured Shuyan a cup of warm water as he teased, “What are you thinking about that you’re so lost in thought? You haven’t been apart from your husband for long, and you’re already missing him?”
Seeing Shuyan focus on him, Feng Yuanlin continued happily, “Go ahead, flaunt your love and abuse a single dog like me! See if I don’t get back at you in the future.”
Chi Shuyan ignored Brother Feng’s teasing. She originally wanted to ask about the Yuan woman, but when she looked up and saw that Brother Feng’s arm was in a sling, she subconsciously thought of what Brother Feng had said about getting into a car accident last night. Her face changed drastically and she suddenly got up. She looked him up and down nervously. After confirming that he was fine and only his arm was injured, Chi Shuyan’s face softened a little, but her tone was filled with concern. “Did you really get into a car accident last night?” After a pause, she immediately asked nervously, “Brother Feng, are you okay?”
She was afraid that he might have other internal injuries.
Seeing that Shuyan was so concerned about him, Feng Yuanlin was quite pleased. He waved his hand to indicate that he was fine and had only suffered minor injuries. “Hey, forget about last night’s bad luck. It’s just that I was with a jinx!” After a pause, Feng Yuanlin continued heartlessly, “That jinx even said that it was Zhenbai’s fault. Screw him. Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore!”
Now that Feng Yuanlin had brought this up, Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but think about it again. She was also very annoyed that she hadn’t paid much attention to Brother Feng last night and he had gotten injured. Moreover, she knew that Gu Yunzheng wasn’t someone who spoke nonsense. This matter was most likely related to her man. That was why Chi Shuyan felt guilty and apologetic. She said seriously, “Brother Feng, after Yang Ji and the others are done, I’ll really treat you to a big meal. It’ll be an imperial feast. Order whatever you want.”
Feng Yuanlin was immediately attracted by Shuyan’s promise of a big meal. He hurriedly nodded happily and praised, “Shuyan, the luckiest thing in my life is getting to know a good friend like you.”
The more Brother Feng said, the more guilty Chi Shuyan felt. It wasn’t like she could talk about her man’s abnormal condition now, so she could only show concern on the surface and clear Gu Yunzheng’s name. Unfortunately, Brother Feng seemed to have some conflict with Gu Yunzheng and was certain that the other party was a jinx. Chi Shuyan facepalmed and could only drop the subject. Instead, she got down to business. “When I came in just now, I ran into Yuan Yuan!”
Feng Yuanlin still wanted to complain to Shuyan about how difficult it was to get along with Gu Yunzheng, but Shuyan’s words immediately caught his attention. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and said, “It’s fate. But Shuyan, be honest: What kind of ‘treasure’ did you take from her last night? Why is it that this woman appears a little strange today?”
Feng Yuanlin continued, “You don’t know, but this woman rushed into the police station early in the morning. Not only did she immediately want us to find her ‘treasure,’ she ran to Yang Ji and the others and almost lost control and wanted to attack them. She said that they took her ‘treasure.’ It seems that this ‘treasure’ is extraordinarily important to her!”
Chi Shuyan didn’t keep him in suspense. She immediately took out the fragments of the matryoshka dolls from her Cosmos Ring. The dolls weren’t made of wood, but porcelain. She immediately placed the fragments on the table for Brother Feng to have a look.
Feng Yuanlin had also seen in Shuyan’s spirit mirror image how the Yuan woman used this item to curse someone she wanted dead. It was also because of this set of dolls that Feng Yuanlin didn’t take these fragments lightly. Instead, he stared solemnly at them for a long time, but couldn’t comprehend anything.
There was also a talisman stuck to them. As soon as Feng Yuanlin tried to pull it off, the incomparably pitiful and strange cries of a baby immediately rang out. Not only that, the table suddenly started to hum and shake. Feng Yuanlin jumped in fright and hurriedly stuck the talisman back on. When there was no longer any movement, Feng Yuanlin frowned and said, “Shuyan, this thing isn’t anything good. If you keep it, it’ll cause trouble sooner or later.”
Chi Shuyan nodded and agreed with Brother Feng. “Although I don’t know how this thing fell into Yuan Yuan’s hands, it’s indeed best to destroy it as soon as possible.”
As soon as she finished speaking, light blue flames suddenly appeared on her fingertips, and they engulfed the porcelain pieces. The black shadow contained in the broken porcelain pieces only had time to whimper and scream before it was immediately burned clean, along with the talisman, leaving only ash on the table.
After dealing with the matter, Chi Shuyan clapped her hands. “It’s pretty much over.”
Seeing Shuyan deal with this thing so quickly, Feng Yuanlin relaxed and said, “It’s good that it’s destroyed. Yang Ji and the others have stayed here long enough. I’ll tell them to go home so that their mothers won’t worry anymore.”
After Feng Yuanlin spoke, he saw that Shuyan’s expression didn’t relax, but she was frowning slightly instead. His heart thumped. Chi Shuyan was so familiar with Brother Feng, so how could she not know what he was thinking? She immediately explained, “It’s not about Yang Ji and the others, but about Yuan Yuan. Brother Feng, remember how I said I ran into her earlier?”
Feng Yuanlin immediately nodded. Chi Shuyan pursed her lips and said, “I can tell that woman isn’t doing well. Something will happen to her in the next few days!”
Chi Shuyan could see that Brother Feng was conflicted, and she didn’t plan to make things difficult for him. Besides, she really didn’t plan to save Yuan Yuan; what she valued the most was karma. That woman deserved it and didn’t deserve anyone’s sympathy. She simply said, “I’m also powerless; there’s nothing I can do to save her!”
Feng Yuanlin was speechless. As if he would believe that!
