Chapter 360 I Want to Marry Him
The old priest had sharp eyes, and he looked at Si Bei with coldness in his eyes and a defensive attitude.
"Mother-in-law..."
As soon as Shanshan spoke, the old priest stopped her, "Shanshan."
The old priest's voice was filled with warning.
Even Shanshan kept silent subconsciously.
The old priest looked at Si Bei and said, "Shan Shan has already left with you once. You said that you would never come to bother the village again."
"You broke your promise."
Si Bei pursed his lips, thinking about what to say.
The old priest's intention to expel him was very obvious, and he even wanted him to leave immediately.
Going... is impossible to go.
"Mother-in-law." At this moment, Shanshan spoke again, "Sibei is not here for official business this time."
The old priest frowned, with a look of doubt on his face.
Not for official business?
Then what for?
The old priest was puzzled when he saw Shanshan raise her hand and hold Sibei's arm, "Mother-in-law, he came for me, and I want to marry him."
The old priest took a while to realize what this scene meant. She widened her eyes and looked at Shanshan, then at Sibei, "You guys..."
Not to mention the old priest, even Si Bei didn't react.
However, he always had no expression on his face, and his whole body stiffened because of Shanshan's sudden approach, so the old priest didn't notice anything wrong.
Shan Shan still had a smile on her face. She hugged Si Bei's arm and put her head on it. "Mother-in-law, it's just what you think."
"That's why I brought Si Bei back."
The old priest's eyes finally fell on Si Bei, his slightly narrowed eyes filled with inquiry and scrutiny, as if asking: Is it true?
Si Bei naturally understood Shan Shan's meaning. He was not someone who didn't know how to adapt. At this moment, he tried to force a smile at the old priest, "Mother-in-law."
Old priest: “…” It’s an eyesore.
She glanced at Si Bei, turned and walked towards the stairs, and said to Shan Shan: "Come with me."
Before leaving, Shanshan did not forget to look back at Si Bei and winked playfully.
The corners of Si Bei's lips lifted up almost imperceptibly.
When the old priest saw this scene, his heart sank even more...
Si Bei didn’t know what Shan Shan and the old priest had said, but the old priest didn’t tell him to leave.
He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Shanshan again.
Shanshan gave Sibei a reassuring look. After lunch, Shanshan took Sibei out the door.
Both of them tacitly did not mention what they had just said in front of the old priest.
Si Bei asked: "Where are we going now?"
The two of them had not entered the village for the past two days, so the clues Shanshan discovered were naturally shared by the two of them. Shanshan had already discovered that several people were missing from the tribe.
Shan Shan said, "I'm going to go find Sister Lan. As for you...are the snacks I asked you to prepare last time still there? Go find those kids."
Shanshan pointed Sibei in a direction and turned to leave first.
Si Bei watched Shanshan disappear from his sight with brisk footsteps, then turned and walked in the direction Shanshan pointed.
The old priest's residence.
As soon as Shanshan and Sibei left, someone came to the old priest's door and whispered, "Master Priest."
Two middle-aged women came in, one of whom was the Aunt Wen that Shanshan had called today.
"Master Priest, is that the person who took Shanshan away? He cannot stay in the village!" Another woman said firmly, "People from the outside world will only bring disaster to the village."
If the outsiders hadn't come to the village last time and took Shanshan away, how could the village have ended up like this...
