Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser - Chapter 1820

Chapter 1820 – 1820 Old Liang Family Residence, Sacrificing Lu Wenjing?

1820 Old Liang Family Residence, Sacrificing Lu Wenjing?
It turned out that Du Zhong and Song Yanru really weren’t as stupid as Qi Hao thought. After they left, they immediately went to Lu Ningwen and Fang Yu’s room to make up.

It was only when Lu Ningwen and Fang Yu came to their room before the game and told Qi Hao about it that he realized that he had been worried for nothing earlier. However, what kind of alliance did that Du man and Film Empress Song plan to form?

It couldn’t be against his sister-in-law and him, right?

Putting him aside, everyone else had seen his sister-in-law’s abilities. If they wanted to leave this place alive, they definitely wouldn’t dare offend his sister-in-law.

Because of his relationship with his sister-in-law, no one would dare offend him either. Besides, he was quite a people person, so there shouldn’t be anyone who would hate him enough to want him dead.

Qi Hao couldn’t figure out who Du Zhong and Song Yanru wanted to sacrifice.

Lu Ningwen said, “They plan to sacrifice Lu Wenjing and want us to write her name!”

When Lu Ningwen said that, it was like a bolt from the blue. Qi Hao had thought it would either be Lu Ningwen or Fang Yu; he never thought that the person they wanted to sacrifice would actually be Lu Wenjing.

It made sense; otherwise, why would Du Zhong and Movie Queen Song go to Lu Ningwen and Fang Yu’s room without Lu Wenjing?

Lu Wenjing had probably never entertained this possibility either. Thinking of how she had behaved earlier, she probably still relied on and trusted the two of them very much.

Qi Hao’s heart turned cold. He looked up and was about to tell his sister-in-law, when he saw that she was listening to them.

“Sister-in-law, why aren’t you surprised?” Qi Hao couldn’t help but ask.

Chi Shuyan said, “The game tonight is about numbers. Du Zhong and Song Yanru probably formed an alliance first before Lu Wenjing joined them. As for why the two of them chose Lu Wenjing over Mr. Lu or Mr. Fang, at the end of the day, it’s because they’re afraid of your very close relationship. They want to drive a wedge between the two of you and rope one of you in, but they’re even more afraid that they’ll offend both of you if they can’t do that. Moreover, the two of you get along with Haozi and me, so they can’t afford to offend you, as you might join our side. As for Director Huang, they still don’t know if he’ll participate in the game tonight or if his vote will count, so in the end, the two of them can only sacrifice one person, Lu Wenjing. In addition, Lu Wenjing is more simple-minded, so she’s the most suitable person to sacrifice.”

After Chi Shuyan’s explanation, the other three finally understood Du Zhong and Song Yanru’s tricks.

Although they didn’t spend much time with Lu Wenjing, they still had a good impression of her, so they couldn’t bear to sacrifice her.

Moreover, they were uneasy about Du Zhong and Song Yanru tricking Lu Wenjing behind her back.

In particular, one of them was the film empress whom they had idolized and admired in the past. The two of them were actually more inclined to believe that it was the Du man who had proposed sacrificing Lu Wenjing, and Film Empress Song had no choice but to agree.

Fang Yu continued, “Celestial Master Chi, Brother Qi, we didn’t agree right away. We just said that we had to think about it. Now that we’ve given it some thought, if we really have to sacrifice someone, we plan to write Du Zhong’s name. What about you?”

Seeing that the two of them trusted them so much, Qi Hao didn’t feel it was nice to hide anything, but he didn’t know whose name he should write. If something happened to the other party tonight, wouldn’t he feel guilty for the rest of his life?

Chi Shuyan took in Qi Hao’s soft-hearted gaze and didn’t force him. She said, “Haozi and I don’t care whose name it is!” Since she had brought Haozi here, she was confident that she could get him out safely. After a pause, Chi Shuyan continued, “As for the two of you, just do as you have decided. However, if you really write Du Zhong’s name, I’m afraid that once the votes are counted, you’ll be the first two he’ll suspect. If he doesn’t die, you’ll have to be more wary of him in the future. In short, it’s never a bad thing to be more wary of small-minded people!”

Fang Yu and Lu Ningwen nodded solemnly.

They left not long after.

After the two left, Qi Hao couldn’t help but say, “Sister-in-law, whose name are we going to write later? I’ll write my own name. Nothing will happen to me, right?”

Chi Shuyan told Qi Hao to do as he pleased and promised that nothing would happen to him. Qi Hao immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

At 11:30pm, Qi Hao promptly replied to Song Yanru and the others about the alliance. After receiving the rejection, Lu Wenjing could still be considered calm, but Du Zhong and Song Yanru looked at them indignantly. They kept probing whose name they planned to write later.

This time, without waiting for Chi Shuyan to speak, Qi Hao said, “I plan to write my own name, hehe!”

Song Yanru and Du Zhong didn’t believe him at all.
Qi Hao continued, “I really don’t plan to offend anyone. Just treat my vote as scrap!”

Du Zhong still didn’t believe him, and his eyes flashed. He couldn’t help but say, “Brother Qi, are you really going to write your name? Aren’t you afraid of death?”

Qi Hao replied without thinking, “I have my sister-in-law. What’s there to be afraid of? Don’t tell me you’re planning to write my name, right? If you make my sister-in-law unhappy, will she still take you out of this godforsaken place?”

These words rendered them speechless. Du Zhong’s face turned green and was very unsightly. In the end, he confirmed that the other party was harmless and also useful, and he didn’t dare plot against him. Still, he asked Chi Shuyan what she planned to do.

Chi Shuyan said indifferently, “Just treat my vote as scrap!”

As soon as she said that, Du Zhong and the others begrudgingly relaxed. They still felt slightly regretful that they hadn’t roped her in, but like Qi Hao said, they couldn’t afford to offend her. They still wanted Celestial Master Chi to take them out of this place, so they didn’t dare offend the two of them, and hurriedly excused themselves.

Before she left, Song Yanru looked at Qi Hao strangely. Chi Shuyan looked at her, and Song Yanru’s heart thumped. She immediately turned around guiltily and left in a hurry.

She didn’t see Chi Shuyan staring intently at her back, deep in thought.
