From what she saw in Chi Mingwei’s future, Chi Jiao knew that Fang Xiaowei was going to appear tonight.
Chi Jiao, Quan Jue, and Shen Xing would all be at home, so her father wouldn’t be badly injured. But Fang Xiaowei would climb into his room through the window and he would be caught off guard and accidentally fall, breaking his front teeth.
Chi Mingwei nodded after hearing what she said. “Hurry up and capture her! Otherwise, something bad will happen.”
“Fang Xiaowei will come looking for you tonight. Be mentally prepared. Don’t be afraid and don’t be nervous. Leave the rest to us,” Chi Jiao said.
There was really not much that Chi Mingwei could do to help Chi Jiao. All he could do was cooperate with her.
After confirming that Fang Xiaowei would only appear at night, Chi Mingwei didn’t want to remain at home. He went to the office to settle some matters.
After sending him off to work, Chi Jiao’s phone rang. The ringtone was clear and pleasant.
When Chi Jiao saw Quan Jue’s phone number on the screen, she smiled and answered the call. “Brother, why are you calling me?”
“Jiaojiao, I have something to settle tonight. I don’t think I’ll be coming home. I’m calling to ask if you need anything from me tonight? If we need to deal with Uncle’s situation, I’ll settle my matter another time,” Quan Jue said.
Chi Jiao twirled her hair. She said casually, “There’s nothing. Brother, I can handle it. Go and settle your stuff. But no matter how busy you are, you have to remember to eat and sleep well. Otherwise, I’ll be angry with you.”
On the other end of the line, Quan Jue’s gentle voice was filled with affection. “Alright, I promise you.”
‘When Chi Jiao heard Quan Jue’s voice, she couldn’t bear to hang up. She pestered him to chat with her for a while before reluctantly hanging up.
Before the sky turned dark in the afternoon, Chi Mingwei rushed home from work. He was afraid that if he didn’t reach home before dark, he would meet that disgusting monster, Fang Xiaowei.
After Auntie Zhou prepared dinner, Chi Jiao asked her to go home and rest.
Beitang Lie was staying at the Chi residence tonight. After dinner, he washed the dishes, and everyone returned to their own rooms.
Before Chi Mingwei returned to his room, Chi Jiao lowered her voice and reminded him, “Daddy, hang this small mirror around your neck. When you meet Fang Xiaowei, don’t be afraid. Scream loudly and we will rush over to help you.”
Fang Xiaowei wasn’t scary, but the mastermind hadn’t revealed himself yet. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, they couldn’t directly guard Chi Mingwei’s room. They could only stay near his room and pay attention to his movements.
Chi Mingwei wasn’t afraid of Fang Xiaowei. He nodded and took the palm-sized mirror from her. He hung it on his chest and instructed worriedly. “Don’t only think of taking care of me. You have to be careful, too.”
Chi Mingwei only relaxed after seeing Chi Jiao nod.
After returning to his room, Chi Mingwei washed up and sat on the bed in his pajamas. He flipped through his work documents seriously. After reading for a while, his eyes ached. He casually put down the documents and lay on the bed before closing his eyes and falling asleep.
In the middle of the night, Chi Mingwei suddenly felt a bone-piercing coldness sweep over.
Almost instantly, all sleepiness disappeared. Chi Mingwei opened his eyes and turned to look at the foot of the bed..
