Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

1451 Qi Zhenbai Wakes Up (2)

Speaking of which, what Old Master Qi was most afraid of wasn’t the Qi family’s decline, but that Zhenbai, this grandson, would die early because of Fourth Brother Qi’s scheme. How would Old Master Qi face his eldest son and daughter-in-law then?

Moreover, he had personally raised Zhenbai. In terms of feelings, Zhenbai was completely like a son to him, so much so that none of his sons could compare. Not to mention that Zhenbai was the future of the Qi family, in terms of filial piety and consideration, all his sons combined couldn’t compare with Zhenbai.

It had to be pointed out that the old man’s rose-colored glasses were too thick when it came to his grandson, Qi Zhenbai. He was too biased and felt it was a matter of course. Except for Fourth Brother Qi, the other sons of the Qi family were all very filial and considerate toward the old man, and none of them were bad. It wasn’t just Grandpa Qi’s three sons; his three daughters-in-law were even more meticulous and considerate as women. Qi Zhenbai, on the other hand, was cold and aloof by nature. He was taciturn and did more and said less. He also couldn’t be considered considerate at all.

It could be seen how much the old man valued Zhenbai!

“Dad, what’s the matter?” Father Qi stood at the door with the old man.

Grandpa Qi was in a hurry to see Zhenbai, so he ignored Father Qi’s words. He didn’t have time to speak on the phone. After learning that the ancestral grave had been moved back to its original location, he told the other party to keep it a secret, before he hung up.

If Fourth Brother Qi found out that the Qi family’s ancestral grave had been moved back, he would probably start plotting again. Old Master Qi might as well keep it a secret for now. Even if this matter couldn’t be hidden for long, he had to at least give his precious grandson time to recuperate first.

After Zhenbai’s condition stabilized, Old Master Qi would completely settle accounts with Fourth Brother Qi.

“Come, let’s go and take a look at Zhenbai. Be quieter so that you don’t disturb my grandson!” Grandpa Qi said disdainfully to Father Qi.

Father Qi was rendered speechless by this off-handed bias. Fortunately, the person in question was his own son.

Only then did his stifled heart relax. He followed the old man into the room, and subconsciously walked more softly.

Father Qi felt that after what happened to Zhenbai, the old man’s attitude had changed drastically. He had always liked Zhenbai, but he had never been so blatantly biased.

Father Qi naturally didn’t know that the old man had been provoked by his fourth son. The old man could actually see that his fourth son was jealous and wanted to get rid of Zhenbai, and resented his biased attitude.

Old Master Qi felt that although he liked Zhenbai the most, he still tried to be as fair as possible at home and had never been biased toward anyone on the surface. On the contrary, he had been especially indulgent and forgiving toward his fourth son in the past. However, the only thing he got in return was his unscrupulous fourth son’s resentment, which made him greedy and unable to perceive his position at all. Whatever intelligence he had, he used it to plot against his family.

Old Master Qi now understood that his fourth son’s character was already crooked and he could no longer be straightened out. He was prepared to give up on this son. Also, since his fourth son felt that he was biased toward Zhenbai, he would make it clear that he was. Let him resent it as much as he wanted!

Father Qi followed the old man in and saw Celestial Master Zhang sitting next to the bed and taking Zhenbai’s pulse with a frown. Zhenbai was indeed awake at that moment, but his face was very pale. He was leaning against the headboard of the bed. Sunlight slanted in through the full-length windows and shone on him.

From afar, his entire body almost looked transparent. The blue veins on the back of his hands and face were clearly visible, and he looked sickly. His face and lips were deathly pale, but his tall and upright figure was still like an immovable mountain. His aura was still intimidating and sharp, and no one dared to underestimate him in the slightest.

Qi Zhenbai sensed footsteps at that moment and looked up. Seeing the old man and Father Qi come in, he called out weakly, “Grandpa, Dad!” ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by N(o)vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.nᴇt

His body was too weak at that moment. As soon as he spoke, he couldn’t help but cough up blood. Bright red blood flowed from the corner of his lips and stained them red. It was a ghastly sight.

Old Master Qi and Father Qi’s faces changed when they saw Zhenbai’s pale, sick and weak appearance. Father Qi didn’t know the truth, but Old Master Qi already knew that Zhenbai’s matter had something to do with his fourth son. It was precisely because of this that Old Master Qi’s heart ached and he felt guilty when he saw Zhenbai’s appearance, especially when Zhenbai coughed up blood. Old Master Qi, who had never been afraid of anything in his life, was scared out of his wits. His hands shook as he asked Celestial Master Zhang anxiously, “Celestial Master Zhang, what’s wrong with Zhenbai? Is he okay?”

Father Qi was also so scared by Zhenbai suddenly coughing up blood that his limbs turned cold and trembled. He only had this one son. If something really happened, he really didn’t know what to do.

Father Qi hadn’t paid much attention to his son in the past, but now, he knew very well that if something really happened to him, he would have no descendants. Not only did Father Qi feel cold all over, he was even more afraid. He was worried and hurriedly asked, “Zhenbai, what’s wrong? Are you unwell? Tell Celestial Master Zhang. He’ll definitely have a way to save you.”

Just as Father Qi finished speaking, Mother Qi and the other family members hurried over. As soon as Mother Qi entered the door, she saw her son, Zhenbai, reclining weakly in bed and wiping blood from his lips. She was so scared that she started crying. “My son, why are you coughing up blood? Dad, what’s wrong with Zhenbai? He’ll be fine, right? I only have this one son. If something happens to this child, what will happen to me in the future?”

The more Mother Qi thought about it, the more grief she felt, and the more she cried. As soon as Mother Qi started crying, the rest of the family was at a loss. Even Father Qi was flustered, and he immediately flared up at Mother Qi. “What are you crying for? Your son isn’t dead yet. Why are you crying now?”
