Chen ilin had been willing to give Master Chi’s talismans to this niece before. Although she still held a slight grudge, it wasn’t good to keep bickering with a junior. Thinking of how this niece had suffered an undeserved calamity and had been hospitalized because her daughter had provoked an evil spirit, the anger in Chen ilin’s heart dissipated a little.
Besides, she had to give Father ng face no matter what, so she imdiately had him push Jiang Xue in.
Father ng said lovingly, “Xue, look, your aunt isn’t a petty person!”
Jiang Xue imdiately nodded. “Thank you, Aunt! Thank you!”
When they arrived at the dining table, the food was almost ready.
Father ng was about to help Jiang Xue into a chair, but Jiang Xue hurriedly said, “Uncle, I have a crutch. I can do it myself, I can do it myself!”
She looked at Chen ilin fawningly as she spoke.
Chen ilin also knew of Jiang Xue’s injuries. A fall from the second floor sounded serious, but Jiang Xue had actually been quite lucky back then. When she was thrown down, she caught on a tree branch. In the end, she had a minor fracture in her left calf, but she was fine and could walk.
When Chen ilin was scooping out the rice, Father ng pretended to be affectionate as he took the bowl from Chen ilin’s hand. However, when the two of them touched, Father ng’s pupils contracted and his face twitched violently. A black aura seeped out of Father ng’s hand.
Father ng reacted quickly and took advantage of the mont before Chen ilin looked over to hide the hatred and strange chill in his eyes. “ilin, I don’t feel like eating right now. I’ll… take a shower first. I’ll eat later! You guys eat first!”
Chen ilin was stunned. “I’ve already scooped out the rice for you. Why don’t you eat first?”
Father ng no longer had his usual benevolence at that mont. His eyebrows were cold and he looked irritated. Afraid that Chen ilin would touch him again, Father ng turned around and left. “I’ll go take a shower first!”
Jiang Xue thought she was being considerate as she advised, “Aunt, Uncle must be tired after working all day! Let Uncle take a shower. I’ll go help call him later!”
Chen ilin humd and frowned slightly. She felt that sothing was off. She looked at Father ng’s back and saw that it was a little stiff. He was a little slow when he walked, and it didn’t look human.
That gave her a fright. Chen ilin shook her head at her unreliable imagination. Master Chi had never said that her Old ng was possessed. Besides, Old ng had been moving normally before this. Chen ilin felt that she was pessimistic, and needed to change her way of thinking.
Since Father ng planned to take a shower first, Chen ilin didn’t say anything else. She had wanted to share the news that their daughter might wake up in a few days with Old ng, but who would have thought that his face would suddenly turn cold?
“Okay, let’s eat first!” Chen ilin looked at Jiang Xue.
Jiang Xue looked around. After all, that evil spirit had left too deep an impression last ti. Jiang Xue still felt a little scared and cold. She asked, “Aunt… Uncle said that the Master drove that thing away?”
Chen ilin subconsciously thought that Father ng didn’t want his niece to worry too much. After all, ordinary people sotis got afraid when they heard ghost stories, let alone seeing a ghost with their own eyes and knowing that it could harm people.
Chen ilin didn’t want Jiang Xue to worry or be scared. With Master Chi around, the matter should be resolved soon, so she nodded.
Jiang Xue heaved a sigh of relief. Knowing that the ng family could no longer drag her down, she looked at Chen ilin with increasing enthusiasm. After dinner, Jiang Xue took the initiative to say, “Aunt, I’m full. I’ll go call Uncle for dinner!”
Without waiting for Chen ilin to refuse, Jiang Xue imdiately went upstairs on her crutch.
