Chapter 60: Zhenbai, How About I Marry Sister Shuyan?

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

The doctor in the lab coat nodded seriously. “Yes, Madam Qi has been examined thoroughly. Let alone a sequelae, she doesn’t even have common bruises.” After some contemplation, the doctor could only attribute this to luck and softer stairs.

Father Zhu thanked the doctor and hurried to Mother Zhu’s bedside to ask what had happened. How could she have rolled down the stairs from the second floor?

“I just went out shopping with my sisters today and sprained my foot while going up the second floor while wearing my stilettos. I stumbled and fell down the stairs.” Mother Zhu palpitated and was horrified at the memory. “I accidentally knocked over a blue and white porcelain vase in the living room and it shattered all over the floor. I was lying on it when Aunt Wang came over to help me up. But I was totally fine and unharmed.”

Father Zhu questioned Mother Zhu again, and the more he pondered the details, the more he felt that something was terribly off. He felt that this incident wasn’t just a fluke.

Being questioned by Father Zhu, Mother Zhu recalled the thrill at that moment and also felt somewhat puzzled that she was unscathed and in perfect condition. Luck bore wisdom. She suddenly remembered the talisman that her son insisted on giving to her. She pulled it off her neck and was stunned to see several golden lines on the talisman, one of which had turned gray.

Although Mother Zhu didn’t believe the talisman had any effect, in the end, it was her son’s wish. Even if her son gave her a piece of rotten paper, she would be willing to wear it, so she didn’t throw the talisman away like Father Zhu did.

Father Zhu also saw Mother Zhu’s action and was about to reprimand her for following her son’s example and engaging in feudal superstitions, but having the sharp eyes of a businessman, he spotted the difference at once. “This talisman looks a bit different.” One of the golden lines on it had darkened.

Mother Zhu took a closer look and saw the difference, and agreed in surprise. “It’s really different. Old man, look, the golden line on it has darkened! No, I have to call my son and ask him what’s going on.”

When Mother Zhu called Zhu Bocheng, he was arguing with Qi Yunxuan, the damned brat. Qi Yunxuan was the son of Qi Zhenbai’s third uncle – or Qi Zhenbai’s cousin.

“You call this capitalizing on one’s seniority. Why should I give them to you when it’s so obvious I spent tremendous effort to snap them up?” Qi Yunxuan was filled with grievances. How did Brother Zhu know that these talismans were so good? The rest of the family took him for a miscreant and a superstitious man.

“Respect the old and cherish the young, I know. I’m only asking you to give me a few sheets, brat!” Zhu Bocheng gave Qi Yunxuan a flick on the forehead and threatened, “If you don’t, I’ll tell your brother that you still play games every day with the college entrance exam coming up.”

“… You’re ruthless!” Qi Yunxuan sighed petulantly. “I can only give you two.”

“That’s more like it.” Zhu Bocheng nodded his head in satisfaction. Remembering the last time Qi Zhenbai blackmailed him repeatedly, he wasn’t at all ashamed of bullying a child.

Zhu Bocheng sneaked into the Qi family mansion today to find Qi Zhenbai, but missed him. He called and found out that Qi Zhenbai had run to the company after several days of absence. After a curt reply, he gave up the idea of looking for that workaholic and settled for the second best, finding Qi Zhenbai’s cousin, Qi Yunxuan.

As soon as Zhu Bocheng entered the door, he heard the voice of the teenager in the room constantly swearing and tapping the mouse and keyboard.

He thought it was Qi Yunxuan secretly playing games again, but the moment he got close enough, he saw him snapping up talismans and magical weapons on Taobao. Looking closely, wasn’t that the same store that Sister Shuyan shared with him.

Zhu Bocheng visited the store several times and the goods that Sister Shuyan had for sale weren’t few, but demands exceeded the supply. He was aghast when he didn’t snap up even one. He watched Qi Yunxuan’s fingers fly and grab talismans quickly with a grin, waiting until he grabbed a few, before finding out from this brat’s mouth how many he had snapped up. Thus, the scene earlier.

When he saw five or six talismans in this brat’s hand that were exactly like the ones in his, his eyes almost popped out as he was downright envious. He gave Zhenbai only a few talismans, but this kid actually had so many? It turned out that this kid had long known the benefits of these talismans and Sister Shuyan’s store.

This wouldn’t work. Whenever he was free, he had to curry favor with Sister Shuyan. Otherwise, he probably wouldn’t have any talismans.

Having gotten a few now, Zhu Bocheng was in a much better mood and answered Mother Zhu’s call, perfectly satisfied and delighted. He was shocked to learn that his mother had fallen from the second floor and was hospitalized, but after hearing that she was unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief and rushed to the hospital.

“Mom, did you wear the Peace Talisman I gave you?” Zhu Bocheng hurriedly asked the moment he rushed into the ward.

Mother Zhu and Father Zhu looked at each other in disbelief. Is it really related to the yellow Peace Talisman?

Mother Zhu pulled out the Peace Talisman around her neck and nodded. “I’ve always been wearing it. It seems to have golden lines on it. D-Did a Master really give you this?”

After determining that she was really fine and not the least bit injured, Zhu Bocheng grinned broadly. Sister Shuyan’s talisman is really very effective. Confirming that this talisman was really precious, he again felt that the few talismans he had just squeezed back in his hand were still too few.

Few people knew about the benefits of this talisman. Once everyone knew, he could already see people going after it like a flock of ducks. It was a protective goodie. What could be more important than protecting one’s own life?

I must make very good friends with Sister Shuyan.

Zhu Bocheng thought to himself as he looked up and saw both his parents looking at him. He sighed. “I didn’t want to tell you because I was afraid you’d be worried.” Zhu Bocheng immediately told them his misfortunes in Fuzhou and how he had escaped unscathed from his car accident.

Mother and Father Zhu gaped, filled with incredulity. His car fell under an overpass, exploded, burned down to its frames, and their son still survived? If it weren’t their own son in front of them, they would have thought they were listening to some kind of tale.

Nevertheless, Mother Zhu snapped back to her senses first and pulled Zhu Bocheng, inspecting him from top to bottom, her heart trembling in fear. “How did you encounter such a thing, Chengcheng? I won’t allow you to drive next time. I’ll give you a driver.”

Father Zhu shuddered at the thought of such a perilous car accident. If his son hadn’t run into that expert and didn’t have a Protective Talisman, he’d likely have died. No matter how shrewd he was, it would have been difficult for him to escape such an underhanded plot, and this was from a poisonous mind that wanted to harm his son.

“Son, you must remember to wear this talisman properly and never take it off! Don’t take it off even in the shower if possible!” Mother Zhu panicked and instructed.

“Of course, I’ll wear it well. Dad, Mom, rest assured.” Seeing his parents scared like this, Zhu Bocheng jested, “Besides, the scourge lives for a millenium. Your son’s life is long. I still have to give you your pension and stay with you forever, so how can I leave?”

With Zhu Bocheng’s jest, the atmosphere eased up a lot, and Father and Mother Zhu’s minds were put at rest.

Just as Father Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, he saw the talisman around Mother Zhu’s neck and his face tensed up again, remembering the talisman he had tossed on the bedside table. Fortunately, he hadn’t dumped it. Otherwise, how profligate would he have been? His shrewd eyes glowed, thinking inwardly how useful this talisman was. It seemed that he had to put it on without delay, lest something happened.

With his old arms and legs like Mother Zhu’s, there was no telling when something might happen.

These thoughts quickly crossed his mind and he grumbled, “Bocheng, this talisman is so useful, so why didn’t you buy more, you brat?” He just heard this rascal say that this talisman had a limited number of uses. A line would darken once used and when all the golden lines on it turned black, it would be useless.

“Dad.” Zhu Bocheng looked at Father Zhu helplessly, “Do you think I don’t want to? But this talisman is limited. It’s hard to even buy them now.””

Father Zhu instinctively wanted to scold this rascal for being incompetent, but Zhu Bocheng’s eyes twinkled, and he suddenly had a flash of wisdom. “Dad, how about I’ll marry this master as your daughter-in-law?”

Just as Zhu Bocheng finished speaking, he was about to add something when his phone rang. He pulled it out and saw Zhenbai’s number on the screen. He couldn’t be bothered to talk to Father Zhu and quickly picked it up. Without waiting for Qi Zhenbai to speak, he said quite excitedly, “Zhenbai, what do you think of me marrying Sister Shuyan as my wife? Whatever you need in the future, shall I let my wife resolve it?”
