Chapter 281: Chapter 281: Did Zuzi Use Word Spirit to Curse Jinli to Jump Off a Building?
In the past few days.
Xi Rubao noticed that Xi Ruzhu has been coming home more frequently for meals.
"Sister Zhuzhu, haven’t you been going to the hospital to take care of Dad after school? Why are you eating at home again?"
"Well... I also want to spend time with Mom." Xi Ruzhu answered obediently.
She raised her head to meet Zuzi’s half-smiling phoenix eyes, and Xi Ruzhu’s gaze suddenly burned as if scorched, quickly looking away.
Gu Qiusha smiled with relief: "Good girl, eat more. I’ve personally made all the soups and stews these past days, like seahorse with lean meat, coconut black-bone chicken, American ginseng with pork bone... all recipes I got from a nutritionist, perfect for your brain while you study for college entrance exams. You have time to go to the hospital after eating."
Although she was disappointed with the scumbag, logically and ethically, she couldn’t stop the child from showing filial piety.
Moreover, it was Xi Yuanshan who suggested adopting Xi Ruzhu in the first place. Although he’s a lousy husband, he was a decent father to Xi Ruzhu.
After dinner, Xi Rubao habitually liked to take a bath first. When he came out, the floor was inexplicably slippery, and he almost fell on the stairs. Luckily, Zuzi suddenly appeared at the stairway and stretched out a jade arm to barely catch him: "Take it easy, little fry."
Xi Rubao patted his chest: "Sis, you scared me to death. Is this karma for talking about jumping off the building too much in the past?"
Xi Ruzhu seized the opportunity to interject: "Don’t worry, Baby. Zuzi was just teasing you. Zuzi loves talking about word spirits and stuff, right Mom?"
Gu Qiusha: "Ah, does she? Oh, I remember now, Zuzi did say that word spirits are impressive. That’s true, it makes sense."
Xi Ruzhu’s eyes flickered as if unintentionally saying: "Yeah, Zuzi seems pretty knowledgeable about these word spirits, curses, and things like that..."
This thorn needs to be planted in Gu Qiusha’s heart early, so when Xi Rubao really jumps one day, it will have the most shocking effect.
She was waiting for Zuzi to contradict her, so they could argue and leave a lasting impression in Gu Qiusha’s mind.
So in the future, on the day of the accident, Gu Qiusha would definitely associate the incident with Jinli’s jump as a result of Zuzi’s word spirit curse.
Unexpectedly, before the words were finished.
Zuzi’s red lips curled slightly: "Mm-hmm. Just a small thing."
The Ancestor was naturally adept at these things.
Xi Ruzhu: "..." She admitted just like that, making it hard for Ruzhu to pick up the debate.
As Zuzi admitted openly, Xi Rubao coquettishly changed the topic, letting this matter pass without following Xi Ruzhu’s script.
If one plan fails, think of another.
"Baby, I found the best place for studying. It’s great for memorizing vocabulary!"
"Oh, thanks, Sister Zhuzhu, but no need. Sister Zuzi already taught me an easy method to memorize all the vocab from the past three years of high school."
Xi Ruzhu choked for a moment, then changed: "Then maybe you can memorize some ancient poems."
"Alright, so where do you suggest I go?"
"The rooftop, it’s very quiet there."
Xi Rubao was foolishly about to follow Xi Ruzhu to the top-floor rooftop.
Zuzi grabbed her by the collar, pulling her back: "There are lots of mosquitoes on the rooftop."
Xi Rubao immediately stopped obediently: "I hate mosquitoes the most. Sister Zhuzhu, you go to the rooftop to study yourself, I’m not going!"
Xi Ruzhu: "..."
She just wanted Xi Rubao to get used to the route to the rooftop, in case it was needed in the future!
＝＝
Xi Ruzhu’s progress was very unsatisfactory, always interrupted intentionally or unintentionally by Zuzi.
However, it went very smoothly for Nangong Meng.
She poured out all her savings from stock trading over the years, asking Zhang Shensuan to get rid of Zuzi.
Zhang Shensuan readily agreed: "Pick a way for her to die tonight, and I’ll start the ritual immediately. Within eighty-one hours, you’ll surely see satisfactory results."
Choose a way for Zuzi to die?
Nangong Meng sneered: "I want her to—"
