My CEO Husband Can Hear My Inner Thoughts
Chapter 85

After a nap, Yi Qingju's complexion had visibly improved.

Unlike the car they took in S City, the business car that came to pick them up had several soft pillows on the seats that looked incredibly comfortable.

[So cozy, I thought I'd have to endure the back pain all the way again.]

Being reunited with her relative, Yi Qingju was quite fortunate today.

"Sir, it's getting dark. Should we go to a hotel?" Yi Qingju glanced outside and asked.

Before Qi Weiran could respond, Wan Sui who was sitting with Zhang Wei answered, "You see, Madam, the sir has two properties here. We'll stay at one of them tonight and head to the village tomorrow."

Wan Sui seemed very familiar with the arrangement.

Yi Qingju nodded.

[The village, huh...]

Hearing her murmur those two words, Qi Weiran suddenly felt a tinge of regret.

Although Yi Qingju was a city girl, Peach Blossom Village had developed a lot compared to the past, but would she find it uncomfortable?

Just as Qi Weiran was about to speak up, wondering if she didn't want to go there, he heard—

[The village is great, with lots of piggies hehe~]

Qi Weiran: "..."

Repeat three times a day.

Cement your heart.

Little did Yi Qingju know at the time, the manner in which she would actually go to Peach Blossom Village would be quite... grassy.

...

"Big brother, that kid Qi Weiran is almost here." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ NʘvᴇlFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

A shadowy figure hid in the roadside bushes, blending almost completely with the night.

A voice soon came through the earpiece in his right ear, "If you take it upon yourself to peddle swords in front of the target again, I'll sell you to a chili strip factory!!"

The man in black sniffed.

"That's a bit too cruel..."

Just as he was about to say more, lights appeared in the distance and he immediately said, "Never mind, big brother, the target is here~"

Clutching the button in his hand, the man in black stared fixedly down the road.

The three brothers were chosen ones, though their self-proclaimed "interstellar scientific genius" eldest brother had failed for six years due to only knowing how to make laser guns. They finally made it to the modern era and wanted to become arms dealers by selling laser guns, but almost ended up as human experiments.

Yet he was still incredibly capable, being able to make laser guns and all sorts of laser "pew pew~"

"System, are we so unlucky because Qi Xinian's aura is suppressing us?" For some reason, as if seeking encouragement, he suddenly spoke up.

The next second, a toneless mechanical voice responded in his mind.

[Yes, host. As long as you kill Qi Weiran, the unprotected male lead will no longer be able to suppress you.]

"I understand." His gaze grew more determined.

The system inwardly sneered.

Fool, even without protection, the male lead is still a child of destiny, blessed by the heavens. You might as well obediently become a test subject and provide analysis data as a failed case on our path to success.

"Here they come..."

Typical for the wealthy, there were several cars accompanying him as escorts whenever he went out.

As the stream of cars gradually approached the small road, the man in black muttered, "Now!" and pressed the remote control without hesitation.

Simultaneously, he covered his ears and quickly ran downhill, hearing a thunderous explosion as countless laser "pew pew" beams shot out, piercing through the line of cars.

The man in black, who nearly choked on a tree trunk, waited for a moment. Hearing no further movement, he stood up and climbed over to secretly observe the smoking cars.

"Are they all dead?"

He tiptoed over and, uncertain which car Qi Weiran was in, randomly opened the door of one and peered inside.

"Oh grass!!"

Seeing the empty driver's seat illuminated by the interior light, the man in black's hair stood on end!

He turned and fled.

But before he could take two steps, a cold voice suddenly came from behind, "Where are you going?"

The man who should have died according to the plan was somehow standing behind him with a group of men in black, pointing guns at him.

"Y-y-y-y-you're not dead!!" the man stuttered.

Note that this man was called Xiao Shuai, and just three minutes ago, he firmly believed the Xiao Ran he thought was dead had suddenly appeared behind him.

Clearly, his plan had failed.

Without needing to say more, Qi Weiran's men had already stepped forward to restrain Xiao Shuai.

Zhang Wei sneered from behind Qi Weiran, "Well, thank you for helping us test the performance of this self-driving car."

Qi Weiran had actually switched to a helicopter with Yi Qingju midway and flown back to their residence.

Thanks to the mansion having a helipad.

Yi Qingju, who had insisted on coming along, squeezed her way over. Upon meeting the man in black's gaze, her pupils dilated. [Xiao Jiji, are you sure it's him? This fourth guy looks a lot like that number three human trafficker.]

Xiao Jiji was initially unsure too, thinking it might be a bug, but immediately confirmed, [No mistake, host! It's him! They're twins, this reincarnator is a twin!!!]

"Triplets?" Qi Weiran, who was somehow holding the man's earpiece, snorted coldly.

Yi Qingju's face paled.

[You're just holding it like that... there's no earwax on it, right...?]

Qi Weiran: "..."

He silently threw the earpiece to Zhang Wei and wiped his hand on the man's clothes.

Zhang Wei: ?

[Triplets? Why did Qi Weiran mention triplets?]

"You... you're talking nonsense! I don't know!!" The man in black's eyes darted around.

Zhang Wei coldly said, "Big brother, didn't you notice that ever since just now, the person on the other end of that earpiece hasn't said a word to you?"

They had to thank him, for if not for tracing that earpiece's signal to lock onto the other person's location via satellite, who would have thought they were hiding in such a remote place.

The man in black finally realized, and his whole body started trembling as he let out a few bitter laughs before bursting into tears, completely disbelieving his failure.

Yi Qingju: [Compared to your red-green light brothers, you're really quite pathetic. I heard that guy didn't even react when he was sent to prison, truly worthy of being part of Qi Weiran's gang.]

Qi Weiran: "..." Don't associate me with them.

Examining the earpiece in his hand, planning to hand it over to his subordinate Zhang Wei, he suddenly noticed a glowing object inside.

"Huh... what's this?"

As the words left his mouth, Yi Qingju's mind was suddenly filled with Xiao Jiji's frantic shouts: [Protect the lord! Quick, protect Money God Lord! That earpiece has—]

Before it could finish, Yi Qingju had already rushed over.

Time seemed to freeze for an instant, her eyes only seeing Qi Weiran's slightly puzzled amber irises reflecting her own image.

[Qi Weiran! No matter what, you can't let your lady die in such a—]

There was a thud and a ripping sound.

Yi Qingju tripped.

While inadvertently pulling down the innocent Zhang Wei's pants, revealing his floral underwear, her face also slammed into the conveniently placed cursed rock on the ground.

The surroundings fell into utter silence, with only the mechanical voice from the device in Zhang Wei's hand echoing in the night breeze, "Hehe, idiot, idiot, idiot, idiot, if you don't die, who will?"

Xiao Jiji's words about "a strange alarm device in the earpiece" died before they could be uttered.

Don't ask, the answer is that it really never expected its newly acquired trump card to be used so quickly.

But more than that, it never expected Yi Qingju to become the first unlucky soul to trip over a rock and knock herself out.

[Ah... Reviving host Yi Qingju, energy sufficient, proceeding with --]

[Beep beep! Warning! Error occurred! Error occurred!]

Yi Qingju was awakened by the blaring alarm sounds that seemed to explode in her mind.

With great effort, she opened her eyes and propped herself up, shaking her head. Looking up, she met a pair of wary, slightly childish amber eyes.

Her pupils contracted.

"Who are you?" the child asked in a hoarse voice.

Taking in the Pikachu t-shirt the other was wearing, Yi Qingju cracked a smile on her dry, cracked lips. "Hello, my name is Xiao Zhi."
