Chapter 1686 - 1686 Yuan Yuan Arrives

1686 Yuan Yuan Arrives

Chi Shuyan didn’t answer Xia Mingcheng’s question, but suddenly walked over and grabbed Xia Mingzhen’s collar. He was shocked at first and thought that the Master in front of him had taken a fancy to his looks and was about to make a move on him. Xia Mingzhen’s face changed slightly and he was about to stop her.

The other party nimbly took out the talisman which he was wearing on a red string.

The yellow paper talisman had turned black. Xia Mingzhen naturally saw it too. His eyes widened and he was about to ask what was going on.

The Master closed her fist, and the charred talisman instantly turned to powder. Xia Mingzhen naturally remembered that his brother had forced him to wear this talisman before. Seeing the talisman suddenly turn black and turn to powder, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He was shocked as he blurted out, “Holy… Holy sh*t, this… What the hell is going on? Isn’t this the talisman my brother gave me? How did it become like this?”

The more Xia Mingzhen thought about it, the more he felt that something wasn’t right. Without thinking, he blurted out, “Could it be that I didn’t get a superpower all of a sudden, but this thing saved me? Impossible… No.” The more Xia Mingzhen thought about it, the more his head felt like it was going to explode. He was stupefied. He immediately looked up and was about to ask his brother for an explanation, when he heard the Master in front of him say, “This Safety Talisman did block the calamity for you. In addition, your luck is pretty good. You fell from the third floor and were only unconscious for a while, and nothing worse happened.”

Xia Mingzhen was completely stupefied at her words.

Xia Mingcheng didn’t notice his brother’s expression as his attention was all on the talisman. When he saw that the yellow paper talisman had turned into charred powder, he immediately realized that this talisman must have saved his brother. Xia Mingcheng immediately looked at Master Chi with gratitude and lingering fear. He thought that Master Chi was already very capable, but he didn’t expect her to be this capable!

The talismans she drew really could save lives.

This was simply too awesome compared with just a few predictions. If he had known that Master Chi’s talismans were so useful, he would have bought more back then. No, it was a good thing Master Chi had given him a lot of Safety Talismans at that time, so his parents and brother were fine. Only then did Xia Mingcheng realize how much he owed Master Chi, and he was grateful.

Given Xia Mingcheng’s reaction, Father and Mother Xia were naturally even more stupefied. Their minds were blank. Old people were even more superstitious. Moreover, how was their youngest son fine after falling from the third floor? Why did the talisman on him suddenly turn black? Apart from the fact that this talisman had protected their youngest son, the two elders couldn’t think of anything else.

Father and Mother Xia were completely stupefied. They looked at the Master in front of them with even more reverence as their breathing picked up.

Father Xia was still alright; after all, he had cultivated a stoic expression as a businessman, but Mother Xia couldn’t control her expression. She looked at Chi Shuyan with reverence, fear and excitement.

In particular, she remembered how something had suddenly happened to her husband but he had been fine. At that time, she thought that it was Yuan Yuan who had helped him, but she then thought about how her son had given the couple a talisman each the day before the accident; she really didn’t think that this talisman could be so powerful and efficient. She just thought that this was her son’s good intentions. In addition, she was a little superstitious, so she wore one herself and gave the other to her husband that night.

Mother Xia was now very sure that the reason why her husband was fine back then definitely had nothing to do with that Yuan woman; it was most likely because of the talismans from the Master.

The more Mother Xia thought about it, the more regret she felt. Why didn’t she believe her youngest son and the Master before? She had almost gotten her eldest son to marry such a ruthless and vicious woman. Mother Xia was especially afraid. At the same time, she subconsciously touched her wrist. After confirming that the talisman which her son had given to her hadn’t fallen and was still on her wrist, Mother Xia heaved a sigh of relief.

If this talisman that could ward off disasters and save lives suddenly disappeared, Mother Xia’s heart would ache to death just thinking about it.

Father Xia was the same. Seeing Mother Xia’s expression as she touched the talisman, he could naturally guess that his eldest son had definitely asked Master Chi for these talismans. Furthermore, the talisman on his wrist was a little black. He hadn’t thought much of it at the time, but looking back now, he knew that this talisman had definitely helped him during his accident.

Father Xia had long forgotten that when Mother Xia handed him the talisman, he had been repulsed and couldn’t help but reprimand her for being superstitious. If not for the fact that this had been a gift from his eldest son, he definitely wouldn’t have worn it. Thinking this, Father Xia’s heart was also filled with lingering fear, relief and gratitude.

Chi Shuyan saw the complicated feelings of the Xia family, but didn’t say anything. Father Xia, Mother Xia and Xia Mingcheng suppressed their excitement and fervently thanked the Master.

Mother Xia couldn’t help but sob again as she thanked Chi Shuyan. Chi Shuyan’s scalp turned numb. She was about to look at Xia Mingcheng to comfort his mother, when there was a knock on the door of the ward. The Xia family subconsciously turned to look. At that moment, the door wasn’t shut, and there was a small gap. Yuan Yuan stood at the door of the ward and looked inside. She even asked with a gentle expression, “Mingcheng, are you inside? It’s Yuan Yuan. Can I come in?”

The faces of the Xia family changed drastically, and their bodies tensed up and trembled. Xia Mingcheng suddenly had a thought. Without waiting for Father and Mother Xia to react, he immediately blocked the woman’s probing gaze, walked over, left the ward, and closed the door in one go. He immediately grabbed Yuan Yuan’s wrist and pulled her away, the only thought on his mind being to not let this woman know that Mingzhen was fine.
