But what could that change? He had planned everything, but he never expected that his elder brother, who had tormented him in his dreams for so many years, would now come out like a demon from hell to find him and instantly eliminate the people they had painstakingly trained.
What are they if not demons? No, they're ghosts...
As the two men approached, Chi Er Chi Er his head repeatedly, "I didn't kill you, brother, don't look for me..."
Mengying: "Big brother... I miss you so much."
Zhong Feifei: "???" What the hell? Is she really that insignificant? She's already dressed up as a ghost in a red wedding dress, and her makeup is all done, but she's still not as scary as Chi Jingyi's "bleeding" eyes.
However, Chi Jingyi's black lipstick looked somewhat familiar.
And another thing! So many years have passed, and Mengying is still so infatuated with Chi Jingyi, she's always swooning over him.
So, without hesitation, she forcibly kissed Chi Jingyi in front of Mengying.
Chi Jingyi naturally pulled her into his arms, showering the Chi Er couple with a ghostly dog food gift.
"Aaaaaah!! Die, die now! Zhong Feifei, you disgusting, stinking woman! It's you again!" Mengying was driven completely mad by the rage. She tried to pounce on him, but couldn't move.
Two days later
In the restaurant of Yan Guiyun's apartment
When Chi Yining saw her parents again, she was surprised and a little disappointed, saying, "I thought you were going to be gone for more than half a month, you're back so soon..."
Chi Jingyi could easily tell that his son wanted to spend some time alone with his son-in-law; the look of disdain in his eyes was quite obvious.
"What? You're disgusted with your dad now?" Chi Jingyi picked up his tea, narrowed his eyes slightly, and took a sip.
Chi Yining almost nodded, but considering the other person was his father, he could only shake his head helplessly and change the subject, asking, "What about those innocent people who were arrested?"
Zhong Feifei sat next to Chi Yining, chuckling as she patted her son's head. "Your husband took some people and resolved the issue. Some of them are orphans and will be enrolled in schools under the Yan Family's umbrella. We'll have to wait for Xiaoyun to come back for more details."
Chi Yining had just gotten up when Brother Yan disappeared. It was Chi Jingyi who pulled him out of bed so they could have breakfast together.
"Okay, it might be troublesome, considering the number of people. If I have to handle the resettlement myself, I'll also need to communicate with the police. Even if there are no problems, there will be a lot of tedious procedures afterwards... Won't that be very busy...?"
Zhong Feifei felt that she might not be Ningbao's mother; Yan Guiyun was.
Look, she's only been gone a short while, and her baby complex is so strong she can't even bear to look at him. "Don't worry, I'm sure your husband is even more anxious than you are."
Upon hearing the word "urgent," Chi Yining instantly perked up and stopped being in a rush. Right! If Yan Guiyun were busy, his life would be much easier!
His emotions came and went quickly, and a handsome smile appeared on his lips. " Jing Yi, Feifei, what are we going to do today? Can you not torture me?"
Jing Yi smiled and said, "Okay, I won't torture you today. I'll take you to get a haircut."
Chi Yining had forgotten that his hair was already quite long. Although Yan Guiyun would occasionally trim the hair on his forehead, Yan Guiyun always said that he wanted him to keep a small tuft of hair at the back.
"No, I promised Yan Guiyun I'd keep it."
Chi Jingyi's smile gradually froze. What kind of bewitching potion had Yan Guiyun given his son? No matter what he did, he kept talking about Yan Guiyun...
He sighed helplessly and said, "Other kids always have their dads accompany them to get their hair cut..."
Chi Yining: "Dad, it's okay, it doesn't matter whether I have it or not."
Chi Jingyi suddenly choked up. Indeed, they had been absent for twenty years. It seemed that Chi Yining had gotten used to the absence of parental love.
But I couldn't resist asking out of curiosity, "In your previous life, you were socially anxious, so how did you get a haircut?"
Chi Yining recalled for a moment, then slowly said, "I hired a mute barber."
Chi Jingyi truly admired his son, giving him a thumbs up. "Dad can't understand it, but Dad is deeply impressed."
"Yes, that was truly impressive. Is there anything else you'd like to ask?" Chi Yining quite appreciated Jing Yi and the others' concern for her. How to put it? It was a bit complicated, a bittersweet feeling mixed with a warm glow.
Unlike with my grandparents, this feeling is fresh and somewhat special.
Chi Jingyi replied, "Of course I have them, and plenty of them." He then asked, "So, besides eating, playing games, and drawing comics, do you have any other hobbies?"
Chi Yining her chin on her hand and thought for a moment, "Yes, I read novels. I mostly read non-CP cultivation novels with a fast-paced, leveling-up style. Oh, and occasionally I'll read some domineering CEO novels. They speak in a lot of meaningful ways, like a grandfather."
Seeing that Chi Jingyi seemed hesitant to speak, Zhong Feifei asked, "Did your grandfather say anything to you before he passed away?"
Chi Yining suddenly realized that he hadn't missed his grandfather in a long time! Would his grandfather be angry that he was an unfilial grandson?!
"Grandpa said that I will have my own happiness, and told me to try my best to live even if I'm alone," Chi Yining said with a sigh.
He then added, "He once said that I could Transmigration, but at the time I didn't know what he meant and thought he was joking."
Chi Jingyi couldn't help but laugh. "The old man is a bit of a joker. Is he telling you to learn more skills so you won't be clueless and just waiting to die after you Transmigration?"
Chi Yining's eyes widened, and he suddenly stood up, walked to Chi Jingyi's side, and shook his shoulders. "How did you know! Jing Yi, do you know where Grandpa is?!" he asked urgently and nervously.
Chi Jingyi wasn't angry at being shaken by his son. Instead, he smiled and said, "Your grandfather is our team leader, and your grandmother is the team leader's wife. Would you like to meet him?"
At this moment, Chi Yining's eyes were already red with tears, and she said without hesitation, "Yes!"
"If you want to see me, wait until my system finishes hibernation, then we can have a video call." Zhong Feifei said on the other end, her eyes smiling, revealing a tenderness that seemed out of place for a young girl.
Chi Yining felt her mind was about to explode, her tone still filled with doubt and surprise, "Really? You're not lying to me? So, Grandpa was also from your Book Transmigration Bureau??"
Jing Yi: "Yes, the team leader has always liked children. That year, he was assigned to your previous life to carry out a mission, and I asked him to take special care of you. When he came back, he was very reluctant to part with you. Also, the year you were captured by the lab, because your behavior was restricted, the team leader went to great lengths to rescue you."
Chi Yining felt her heart pounding with uncontrollable excitement, exhilaration, and joy.
Grandpa didn't die, and neither did Grandma!
"What about Grandma? Will I be able to see Grandma too?" Chi Yining's eyes stung, and he tried his best to hold back his tears. He was not a crybaby by nature, but even with his strong self-control, he couldn't hold back his tears any longer, and they burst forth.
