Chapter 82: Sudden Fame

Even though Mr. Qi was fast asleep now, there was still a faint black aura lingering on his forehead.

But she didn't want to give up. She would always find a way no matter what. Qi Xu carefully tucked in the quilt for Old Man Qi and quietly left the room.

Qi Xu looked at Jiang Hongyi and nodded, and the two of them walked into the kitchen one after the other and continued cooking.

She also did not forget to touch An An's head and praised her for helping them cut the vegetables for cooking in advance.

"Jiang Hongyi, I think we must quickly find the person behind this. These incidents may appear unrelated on the surface, but in reality, they are inextricably linked."

Qi Xu did not stop cooking, but tilted his upper body towards Jiang Hongyi and said with a serious face the judgment he had thought about for a long time.

Jiang Hongyi was a little caught off guard by her sudden approach. The faint fragrance of the girl lingered on his nose, and his whole body turned red uncontrollably.

"Um...well...I think so too."

Jiang Hongyi's whole body quietly and silently leaned back slightly, and he suddenly began to stutter.

"Huh? Did An An overdo the fire? Why is your face so red? Is it too hot?"

Qi Xu turned around and saw Jiang Hongyi, whose entire face had turned red like a tomato, and he moved the spatula from his right hand to his left hand.

He stretched out his index finger and poked Jiang Hongyi's cheek.

This action made someone's face even hotter, and they could feel the heat radiating from it.

Jiang Hongyi took a big step back and explained awkwardly, "Ahem, it's a bit hot. I'll go drink some water."

As he said this, he took a few big strides to the big water tank in the yard, picked up the scoop and poured it over his head.

Swish!

A bucket of cold water poured down from the top of my head, making me feel cool and happy.

After a while, the red warmth on Jiang Hongyi's body dissipated.

Only the heart was beating rapidly in my chest.

Then he took off his coat, changed into a clean old man's vest, and hung the wet clothes on the clothesline.

Just as I was about to walk towards the kitchen, I ran into Qi Xu and An An, one big and one small, carrying cooked food and walking out.

He then took the remaining dishes and chopsticks on the kitchen chopping board and went to the living room.

Then Qi Xu went to wake up Old Man Qi and helped him come over to eat.

The whole meal was in complete silence, with only the sound of people chewing their food.

Mr. Qi can only be taken care of now, and it is best not to be too happy or too sad. When Qi Xu talked about his illness, his words were half true and half false.

Jiang Hongyi was also very cooperative and persuaded Mr. Qi to relax, not to take everything to heart, take medicine on time, and go hiking to relax when he had time.

Qi Xu felt relieved when he saw that Old Man Qi had no intention of resisting.

As a result, all attention was focused on the muscle lines of Jiang Hongyi's entire arm.

If this were put in an art sketching class in the 21st century, anyone who saw it would probably drool.

She forced herself to look away and put the food into the bowl one piece at a time with her chopsticks.

As a result, the muscle lines on someone's body still appear in my mind.

Tsk!

Qi Xu felt a little disgusted with herself. How could she be attracted to a handsome man?

She shook her head vigorously, throwing away all the images that were playing in her mind.

After dinner, Mr. Qi planned to sit on the small stool on the doorstep as usual and tap his cigarette butts.

"Grandpa, you can't smoke recently. You have to quit. Wait a minute, I'll make you some tea."

Qi Xu was quick-witted and quick-handed. He quickly ran over and snatched the old pipe from Old Man Qi's hand, then ran into the kitchen to make tea.

It is called brewing tea, but in fact it is just a health tea brewed with the only orange peels and red dates at home.

Flower teas that can effectively regulate liver qi include rose, jasmine, licorice, orange peel, red dates and dandelion root.

After Qi Xu made the tea, Jiang Hongyi had already washed all the pots and pans on hand.

Thinking of this, Qi Xu prepared some Chinese medicine for Grandpa Qi. He estimated that the medicine would be ready by the time they came back with the scented tea.

An An was left at home looking after the boiling pot of Chinese medicine and Grandpa Qi.

Jiang Hongyi casually put on a coat, took some money and tickets, and went out with Qi Xu.

"Finally, it's the two of us. I want to discuss the connection between these events with you, but it's not convenient to talk about it at home."

When the two of them walked about two kilometers out of the family compound, Qi Xu dared to open his mouth. He tugged at his collar with his right hand, tilted his head towards him, and spoke in a voice that was within the hearing range of the two of them.

Jiang Hongyi knew what she meant and frowned. "I feel like this blood bracelet is a scam. The person behind it must be trying to draw out something."

His words were no different from Qi Xu's guess, because in the past, things related to evil spirits would not be resolved so easily.

But now that things have come to this, Qi Xu and Jiang Hongyi don’t know what difficulties they will face in the future.

"It's okay, I'll take it one step at a time. With you as my backer, I think I can be even stronger."

After Qi Xu finished speaking, he was shocked. He always brought Jiang Hongyi into his conversation and did not realize that she had now summarized the two of them as "we".

"Well, we'll face it together."

Jiang Hongyi didn't notice her abnormality and nodded in agreement, agreeing with her point of view.

"Sister Jiang, you are a great charlatan, a great charlatan, please save me, save my child."

"Spirit, are you a shaman? Please help my mother, there's something wrong with her body."

"Qi Shengun, my family has been unlucky lately. Please come up with a solution!"

As soon as the two men arrived at the market, they were surrounded by a group of inexplicable people, some of whom were begging for help.

Some of them knelt on the ground and kowtowed "duang.duang.duang" continuously, while others took advantage of the crowd to grab Qi Xu's collar and shook him back and forth.

Jiang Hongyi has always been vigilant in the team. When so many people suddenly rushed out from the surroundings, he subconsciously opened his arms, as if protecting a cub, and used his arms in a semi-encircled shape to protect Qi Xu.

Qi Xu was a little dazed for the first few seconds, and after he came to his senses, he was a little slow to realize it.

It seemed as if I understood what the mastermind behind the scenes wanted to do in an instant.

She raised her head and met Jiang Hongyi's gaze. "It seems the line has been changed. We are now in the open."

Just one sentence made Jiang Hongyi's face turn colder, and he began to radiate coldness all over his body.

A few people who were closer and had good sense took several steps back silently and dared not make a sound.

On the contrary, those who are tactless, or who really have problems at home that cannot be solved, should still kowtow and beg for help.

"Stop, who are you all? I don't know you. I have something else to do. I need to go buy some tea."

Qi Xu knew that he couldn't be soft-hearted at all now, so he deliberately put on a stern face and pretended to be in a bad mood.

"The charlatan, that's you, the charlatan. Li Jianguo said you can solve any problem."
