Chapter 449: Her Secret 2: Do your best to give him the best...

Dead people who bite? Qi Changxiao's mind raced, and he asked, "You mean, zombies?"

"You know zombies?" Yao Zhizhi was a little surprised. This guy has quite a rich knowledge reserve.

Qi Changxiao grabbed a chair and sat down. His wife didn't deny it, so it really was a zombie?

He couldn't understand. Didn't his wife grow up in Yaowang Village? How did she come into contact with zombies?

He nodded seriously, his eyes full of curiosity. "I know. Uncle Ning once told me the story of corpse-driving in western Hunan. But we've never heard of such a thing here. You...you weren't really sold as a child, were you?"

"No." Yao Zhizhi did not avoid his gaze, but because the distance was too close, his sincerity was brought closer, and his concern for her was infinitely magnified.

After being married for so many years, if she continued to hide it, it would seem she didn't trust him enough. So she smiled and pinched the man's cheek: "It's not the kind from Xiangxi, it's from another world. If you believe me, I can continue to talk about it. If you don't, then just treat it as nonsense."

"No, no, no, I believe it. But..." Qi Changxiao couldn't help but frown, "Another world? Are you saying that you were reincarnated from another world into this one?"

Yao Zhizhi fell silent because she knew that he would be very sad to hear the truth that followed.

But now that the conversation has come to this, he would feel even more uncomfortable if she didn't say anything - after more than ten years of sleeping together, the other person still has a secret in his heart that he is unwilling to share. For either party in the couple, this is a sign of distrust. If the other party is more sensitive, he may regard this as a blasphemy, a barrier of unwillingness to open up.

So, she decided to tell him the truth. She shook her head and said, "No."

"Then..." Qi Changxiao pulled the chair forward again and looked at the woman in front of him nervously.

Yao Zhizhi sighed silently: "When Li Jin forced me to jump into the river to protect myself, I died."

"Ah?" Qi Changxiao always thought he was knowledgeable, but he was still shocked by this answer.

He subconsciously grasped Yao Zhizhi's shoulders: "Then you...are you in pain? Did you go to another world after you died? And then came back because of some opportunity?"

"Teacher Qi, it would be a shame if you don't use your brain to write science fiction." Yao Zhizhi playfully interrupted to ease the overly solemn atmosphere.

Qi Changxiao couldn't relax. He asked seriously, "Is this what I said?"

"Yeah." Yao Zhizhi also answered this question seriously. Sure enough, there was a look of heartache in Qi Changxiao's eyes, accompanied by tangible anger, so that the atmosphere between the two became obviously more solemn.

Yao Zhizhi tried to pull him out of his negative mood, so she teased him, "It's good this way. I had countless sparring partners in that world, and some pretty close friends. After all, my time wasn't wasted. After I came back, didn't I learn to resist? Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the chance to meet you."

"That's not what I meant." Qi Changxiao looked at her with pity. "I can't imagine what you've been through, but I'm sure I want to dig up the grave and whip the corpse! I used to not understand why people in history would pull someone out and whip their corpse years after they'd died. Now I understand."

Because even though he hated those people before, his wife was still alive and well. But now, his wife actually told him that she had died once? This was so suffocating!

For example, if his hatred for those people was 100% before, now it's 10,000, 100,000, 1,000,000! Anyone who has harmed his wife is unforgivable! Before, he would at most just want to stab them to death. But now, his hatred has escalated.

It is not enough to just stab him to death, he must be dragged out and cut into pieces, and his bones must be ground into dust.

It turns out that our ancestors had already invented corresponding words for this extreme hatred.

He really wanted to implement it, really wanted to!

He subconsciously clenched his fists, and even his breathing became rapid.

Yao Zhizhi quickly grasped his shoulders and said, "It's all in the past. Don't do anything stupid. The reason I didn't want to tell you is because I was afraid you'd embarrass yourself. If you really go digging up the grave, be careful the family will call the police and have you arrested. What do you want me to do then? What about the two children? The elders at home can't stand this kind of shock!"

"Then I can always do something else." Qi Changxiao was so angry that he stood up and called Zhang Wang.

Anyway, sooner or later Zhang Wang will have to open a detective agency. Now Zhang Wang is running the convenience store, so he is not too busy. Let Zhang Wang get familiar with his future main business first.

He reported a few names and a string of addresses and asked Zhang Wang to investigate as quickly as possible to see if these people had done anything illegal.

He certainly couldn't dig up graves or whip corpses, but the relatives of these beasts were still alive, so he could seize on their mistakes and pursue them relentlessly.

For example, Li Jin’s family, Yao Jingye’s family, no one can escape!

Zhang Wang could tell he was very excited and quickly agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Qi Changxiao returned to the stove, squatted in front of Yao Zhizhi, took the bowl from her hand and put it on the table, then held her hands. He was so heartbroken that he couldn't say a word.

When the pain reached its peak, words were so pale that he could only kiss her skin.

The back of the hand turned red from being blown by the wind and snow all night.

The palms of my hands started to feel hot from holding the hot porridge.

Being too close to the stove, her cheeks looked particularly bright and delicate.

Soon, Yao Zhizhi had a large human-shaped stove in her arms, the kind that could move.

Damn it, I shouldn’t have told him.

At this moment, Qi Changxiao became a madman in order to release his heartache that had nowhere to go.

Maybe he is right, use happiness to heal trauma and use heartbeat to smooth out the grooves created by fate.

He couldn't change the past, he only knew that he would walk the path with her, never regret it.

He will make her happy and cheerful every day, and he will be her strongest support and most loyal partner.

He would do his best to give her all his best! Although he hadn't kept anything back in the past ten years, he could still dig out more surprises for her, warm her, illuminate her, please her, and accompany her.

And right now, the best thing is this hot beating heart.

Afterwards, Yao Zhizhi checked the time and asked, "Did you ask Dad to call the police?"

"Yeah." Qi Changxiao got up to get some hot water and helped her wash her body.

Yao Zhizhi thought about it and said frankly, "I tampered with the car of those three robbers. Now they are all dead. Does that count as excessive self-defense?"

"No, they pulled out guns. It's either you or them who will die." Qi Changxiao answered without hesitation. Even though the details of the incident did not seem to fit the case of excessive self-defense, his wife must have had her own difficulties and must be the most innocent.

Yao Zhizhi smiled: "Do you trust me so much?"

"What else? Are you expecting me to trust three desperate men?" Qi Changxiao glanced at her in disapproval. "Raise your hands. Your armpits are sweaty."

Yao Zhizhi really enjoyed being taken care of by him. After letting him dry her body obediently, she asked, "What if the police come looking for me and I don't have any injuries on my body?"

Qi Changxiao immediately turned around and went out. When he came back, there was a bleeding cut on his forehead.

Yao Zhizhi was startled: "What happened to you? Did you fall?"

"I was knocked unconscious by the robbers and thrown out of the car. You thought I was dead, but I fought three armed robbers for my life." Qi Changxiao knew this wasn't convincing enough, so he added, "I was dumped at the entrance of the alley. Because it was snowing, there were no witnesses. When I woke up, you were gone, so I asked my father-in-law to call the police while I rode my bike to find you. As for how you escaped, just say you got into a fight with the driver in the passenger seat, but you couldn't win, so the robbers accidentally pushed you out of the car window. However, the car lost control and fell off a cliff. Anyway, the car burned down, and there were no traces left."

Yao Zhizhi thought about it and felt that this statement was logically sound.

As for why she had no obvious scars, it's easy to explain. She was wearing more clothes in winter, and the road was slippery and the car was driving slowly, so she didn't suffer any injuries.

However, she thought about it and went out and got some injuries back.

In the bedroom, the couple looked at each other's embarrassed and funny appearance and couldn't help laughing.

The police arrived in the afternoon. Because of the snow, they could not find any trace of the robbers. It was only after Lao Yao went to the police station and said that his daughter had returned that the police came.

The couple made a statement according to their previous statements, and were asked to get in the car together and taken to Fangshan area to identify the scene of the accident.

Unfortunately, the snow was too heavy, making salvage work difficult, so we had to wait until the snow melted.

"Don't go anywhere except to work these days. Report to the police station after get off work every day." The police reminded them again and again before letting them go home.

Yao Zhizhi didn't feel any pressure at all and went to class happily the next day.

A week later, the police found the crashed truck and three bodies at the location pointed out by Yao Zhizhi. After more than half a month of investigation and evidence collection, they finally verified that the three desperate criminals were fugitives from a robbery case in another province.

"They killed more than a dozen people at the oil field, and the police were having a headache. I didn't expect that I would accidentally kill someone." Yao Zhizhi explained the case to the curious Old Yao and comforted him, "So, I don't have to go to the police station anymore. Dad, don't worry anymore, I'm fine."

"Really?" Old Yao heaved a sigh of relief. It was lucky enough that his daughter escaped from the three armed robbers. He couldn't expect his daughter to be a good person.

Even if she really killed them, it was self-defense and was perfectly reasonable.

Yao Zhizhi smiled and picked up the serving chopsticks, picking up a large chicken drumstick for Old Yao. "Really? Don't worry, Dad. Xiao Liu, who's in charge of this case, even thanked me."

"You, if you encounter something like this again, don't let Changxiao come back alone. I'd rather you two face it together, so that dad will feel better." Old Yao was a little scared. His daughter escaped by luck this time, but what about next time?

It’s better to let the son-in-law accompany you.

Anyway, the old man is not a fool. When he sees that his daughter and son-in-law have not returned, he will definitely suspect that something has happened.

There is no need to ask the son-in-law to come back and report the situation.

But... he thought about it and decided not to ask. His daughter's skills seemed to be too good.

Maybe it was because he was abused by those two evil beasts Yao Erdan and Wang Fang and had to resist, so he developed such a brave and courageous character?

Thinking of this, the old man felt more distressed. Even when his daughter occasionally nagged him, he didn't dare to complain. He smiled every day and listened to whatever his daughter said. Even if she forced him to go to the hospital to measure his blood pressure once a week, he didn't dare to complain.

Yao Zhizhi was quite happy as it turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

Shortly after the beginning of spring, she met Lu Chunxin at school. Lu Chunxin naturally knew about Yao Zhizhi's family relationship from Lao Mao, and immediately greeted her with a smile.

Yao Zhizhi also smiled and waved: "Teacher Lu, come to my house for a gathering this weekend?"

"Okay." Lu Chunxin wanted it more than ever. Her father had been nagging her for more than a month, asking her to take the initiative and not let the old leader's daughter condescend to invite her. She didn't like to hear this. She had been Yao Zhizhi's teacher, so it was Yao Zhizhi who should have invited her.

Look, it has lasted until now, luckily this student is sensible.

Yao Zhizhi had no idea what she was thinking. She just smiled and pushed her bicycle alongside her. "What flavor do you like, Teacher Lu? Sour, spicy, or sweet?"

Lu Chunxin smiled and said, "It's spicy, right?"

"Aunt Lu and Uncle Mao both like spicy food?"

"No, my mother is from Gusu and she likes sweet things."

"Teacher Lu and her whole family should come. I also want to meet Sister Qiuhua."

"You're talking about my second sister, but I don't know if she's free."

"Whether you're free or not, I invited you anyway."

"Okay, I'll definitely pass on the message." Lu Chunxin smiled and stopped at the intersection. "I'm going this way. See you later."

"See you later." Yao Zhizhi smiled and rode away on her bike.

Behind her, a female teacher wearing glasses came over and looked at her from behind and gossiped, "Teacher Lu, who is that?"

"Mr. Yao from the School of Literature, the one who stayed at the school to teach with his wife." Lu Chunxin introduced with a smile.

Teacher Zhang sneered and pushed up his glasses: "That's her, a very famous person. I didn't expect you knew T."

"She has taken my class. From your tone, you seem to be dissatisfied with her?" Teacher Lu asked curiously.

Teacher Zhang said indignantly, "It's because she's meddling in other people's business. Otherwise, how could my nephew be expelled from school?"

Lu Chunxin suddenly realized and remembered that there were indeed a few people who were expelled for cheating in their freshman year.

I didn’t expect that Teacher Zhang’s nephew was here.

This grudge was formed silently.

Let’s remind Xiao Yao about eating later. It’s rare to find such a sensible student.
