Chapter 365: Worked Together
Xie Pinggang was very bold. After he finished speaking, he even glanced at Xie Qiao with disdain, “Tsk, we were born from the same mother. How could you have such good eyes? If it were given to me, how great would that be? I will interrogate those people in the criminal division, alive or dead. What case can’t I solve?!”
Hearing that, Xie Pinggang felt very regretful.
When Xie Qiao heard that, she was dumbfounded.
“Eldest Brother… I’m very pitiful…” Xie Qiao muttered.
After saying that, she suddenly felt a little guilty.
Why did eldest brother behave as if she had taken advantage of him?!
“Fine, you’re pitiful, so pitiful,” Xie Pinggang did not have much patience, “Don’t you have the ability to capture souls? After learning so many skills, you’re still afraid of ghouls. You…”
At this point, Xie Pinggang was suddenly stunned.
What was wrong? What was wrong?
Xie Pinggang frowned and thought for a moment.
After a moment, he turned to look at her, “The incident at the candle workshop… has something to do with you?”
“Err… yes?” Xie Qiao was about to answer subconsciously when she suddenly realized that she was exposed. Her heart jolted, “A-A little.”
“No, you just told me that you were the one who captured the vengeful spirit, but it was clearly that master who captured it,” Xie Pinggang grasped the important factor.
Xie Qiao immediately sat up straight with a solemn expression on her face, she subconsciously became anxious, “So this is what happened. Actually, I went with the master back then. The master was inside while I was outside. Didn’t I mention this to you? That Master Mo Chusheng is my master Mo Lingzi’s junior sister, who is also my junior aunty. So… I secretly learnt from her.”
If her identity as Mo Chusheng was exposed, she would probably have to cower in fear if she used that identity to do things in the future. There would be many things that she could not do.
Xie Pinggang fell silent for a while.
“I know that you’re capable, but I didn’t expect that you, this girl, would be so proud to even dare to take the credit of that master,” Xie Pinggang rolled his eyes at her.
Xie Qiao laughed dryly, “Junior Aunty Mo and I worked together…”
“Hmm, it was all thanks to you guys that time. Otherwise, even the Crown Prince’s life would have been lost inside,” Xie Pinggang nodded.
Xie Qiao’s face was stiff as she nodded obediently.
Xie Pinggang sighed.
“With your physique, the doctor shouldn’t be able to do anything about it. But what you said earlier was right. It’s always good to have more nourishment. Our Father will be able to get some benefits from bringing the troops out this time. When the time comes, we’ll add on to your supplement,” Xie Pinggang was actually worried.
Not only did she have a short life, but her eyes were also different from a normal person’s.
It was inevitable that she would be scared out of her wits on a daily basis. How was she going to get married?
It was probably not that easy to keep secrets between husband and wife. The men around him were not as bold as he was. If she scared her husband to death just after marrying him, not only would she not be able to give birth to a child, she would also bring disasters to her husband.
The criteria for choosing a brother-in-law had to be raised further.
The man had to be bold.
He had to not be afraid of ghosts.
However, once this condition was out, those scholars would probably not be able to do it.
It was better to find a military official.
The more Xie Pinggang thought about it, the more he felt a headache. It was really not easy to raise a sister.
Xie Qiao did not dare to say much. She sat down obediently. When Xie Pinggang waved to dismiss her, she stood up calmly and walked out gracefully.
The Xie family had a peaceful night.
However, it was different outside.
The people who attended the Zhou family’s banquet today were all in a nightmare.
When they closed their eyes, all they saw was that terrifying skeleton!
