"Give me a kiss." As soon as Zhou Weiguang entered the room, the stern-faced man instantly turned into a lapdog, pouting and shamelessly rubbing against Qin Hanshu.
Qin Hanshu gave him a perfunctory peck on the cheek, then pressed her ear against the door to listen to what was happening on the other side.
Zhou Weiguang snorted in dissatisfaction and asked, "Did your brother and sister-in-law have a fight?" He had heard it as soon as he entered the building.
Qin Hanshu nodded.
Zhou Weiguang pulled the man into his arms and said aggrievedly, "What business is it of yours if the couple is arguing? Turn around and look at your husband!"
"Stop arguing!" Qin Hanshu raised her hand and pushed Zhou Weiguang.
Zhou Weiguang, his face dark with anger, slapped his wife's buttocks.
I found it felt quite nice, so I squeezed it a bit more.
Once the other side gradually quieted down, Qin Hanshu turned around and asked, "What do you want me to see?"
"I've been hearing a lot of people say I look much better lately, do you think it's true?"
Qin Hanshu: "...Who said that?"
Zhou Weiguang said, "Our regimental commander and political commissar both said that I look more pleasing to the eye than before."
Zhou Weiguang was very serious; he didn't seem to be joking.
Qin Hanshu also took a closer look and said, "Perhaps it's because people are in high spirits when they have a happy event. When you have a good mindset, your appearance naturally becomes more pleasing to the eye."
"Hehe," Zhou Weiguang casually put his arm around his wife, "That makes sense. I really am happy every day now, it seems like nothing can make me angry..."
Just as Qin Hanshu was stopping the improper hands below, there was a knock on the door.
It's Qin Feiyang.
Zhou Weiguang took back what he had just said. His brother-in-law, who always came to knock on his door and had no sense of propriety, was still quite infuriating!
Qin Feiyang didn't notice Zhou Weiguang's dark face at all. He looked very annoyed and said to Qin Hanshu, "Xiaoshu, I want to have a chat with you."
Qin Hanshu quickly asked Qin Feiyang to sit down and poured him a glass of water.
Qin Feiyang glanced at Zhou Weiguang, who was standing to the side, and said, "Old Zhou, why don't you step aside for a moment?"
"..." Zhou Weiguang snorted coldly and went into the kitchen to cook.
Qin Hanshu patted Qin Feiyang on the shoulder and sighed, "I heard you arguing with your sister-in-law."
Qin Hanshu eavesdropped on Qin Feiyang and Cao Jing's argument not out of curiosity, but because she needed to keep a close eye on Cao Jing's movements in the coming days.
Wang Tianfu has returned, and Huo Zhenduo has done what he needed to do.
Now we'll just wait and see how Huo Zhenduo deals with Wang Tianfu.
Qin Feiyang held his head in his hands and remained silent for a long time before letting out a long sigh, his expression both confused and pained.
"I don't know why, but your sister-in-law... I'm finding it increasingly unbearable lately. I feel... I even feel like she's a completely different person from before we got married!" Qin Feiyang turned to Qin Hanshu, incredulously asking, "Xiaoshu, do you think spirit possession exists in this world?"
Qin Feiyang murmured, "She's definitely not the same person she used to be, but where has my Jingjing gone? These past few days, I've felt more and more that Jingjing is drifting away from me..."
Qin Hanshu was surprised, not expecting Qin Feiyang to think in this direction.
"Brother, do you really think that your wife isn't the same as she used to be?"
Qin Feiyang paused for a moment, then slowly but firmly shook his head and said, "No, I'm sure it's not."
Qin Hanshu continued to ask, "But what you're talking about, spirit possession? Do you believe in such supernatural and bizarre things?"
Qin Feiyang shook his head, then nodded. "I don't know if I believe it or not, but what other explanation is there?"
What cannot be explained by science can only be explained by theology.
Qin Hanshu brought the tiger to Qin Feiyang and said, "I raised this tiger when I was working in the countryside. Do you know why I brought it all the way to Jiangcheng?"
Qin Feiyang was taken aback and said, "Didn't you say that you had deep feelings for each other and couldn't let go?"
Qin Hanshu nodded: "That's one aspect, but also because tigers aren't ordinary cats."
Qin Hanshu began to make up a story: "A tiger appeared to me in a dream, saying that it was a divine beast that could ward off evil spirits and was reincarnated into the cat I raised, to ensure that I would have a worry-free life."
Qin Feiyang stared blankly at his sister, "Why would it guarantee you a lifetime of peace and happiness?"
Qin Hanshu continued to fabricate: "Because I was a very kind person in my past life, this is a blessing!"
"Brother, do you remember that day? My sister-in-law was terrified when she saw the tiger, like she'd seen a ghost!"
Qin Hanshu's words made Qin Feiyang pause.
Yes, Cao Jing isn't afraid of any other cats, but she's terrified of tigers.
There must be a reason.
"How about this," Qin Hanshu said, stroking the tiger's head, "let the tiger confront Cao Jing again, just like last time, and see if it can drive away the wandering ghosts in her body."
Qin Feiyang found this unbelievable, yet inexplicably believed that Cao Jing was truly possessed by something.
He frowned. "But I don't know when she'll be back. We just had a fight, and she just left."
Qin Hanshu said, "This needs to be done quickly. Let's not just wait around... Let's go to her workplace tomorrow."
Qin Feiyang pointed at the tiger and said, "Take it with you?"
Qin Hanshu nodded, "Yes."
Qin Feiyang pondered for a moment, then nodded firmly, "Okay, let's give it a try."
***
"Cao Jing, you haven't been in the right state of mind these past few days. You need to be careful," Ru Mei called out to Cao Jing, giving her a word of advice.
Ru Mei didn't really want to talk to Cao Jing, but she had no choice. The troupe leader had asked her to take charge of the rehearsals for the new play, so she had to.
Cao Jing glanced at Ru Mei and said indifferently, "I know."
Provoked by her attitude, Ru Mei raised her voice and said, "The new play is for a performance in the capital. Can you be more serious? If you really have something to do at home, just say so. I will ask the director to replace you."
