Strange Cards

Chapter 121 Peace of Mind is Home

"Okay, I promise you."

"It's getting late, time to go back to sleep."

As she spoke, Shigure carried Baiyu back, her face still flushed.

At this moment, Da Niu and Li Shun, two members of the Lucky Three Treasures, exchanged glances and both understood what the other was thinking.

Qi Wu, one of the three auspicious treasures, naturally understood what the two boys were thinking, and slapped his head as he spoke.

"Don't worry about getting anyone killed! Don't think I don't know what you two are up to!"

"Take that thing back to the movies and don't go eavesdropping."

Qi Wu then went back to his room first, and Liu An and Yu Yan exchanged a glance before also returning to their rooms.

But who are the Haier Brothers? Besides the leader Qi Wu, they are the two who are the most mischievous members of the entire Hunters.

So Li Shun released a bat that hung upside down under Shi Yu's balcony, just as Shi Yu was carrying Bai Yu back to her room.

"Hehehehehehe."

"Okay, stop grinning like an idiot. Let me help you take a bath first."

Now that Shiyu is helping Baiyu take a bath, there's no need to avoid suspicion. He had already seen her clean before she became his wife, so why can't he see her now that they're married?

As she spoke, Shiyu stared intently at Baiyu, and unconsciously reached out and rubbed her flat chest, which looked like a racetrack.

"Let him move around more, maybe he'll grow bigger."

"We should arrange for papayas and other things that should be included, otherwise it wouldn't be good if we ended up like some flat-chested monster."

While Chun was about to sleep in a hammock on a tree, she suddenly sneezed, scratched her bottom, and went back to sleep.

After Shi Yu helped Bai Yu take a bath and dry her hair, she went to bed. The two Haier Brothers didn't get anything they wanted.

Shi Yu knew that without proper safety measures, it was easy for someone to die, not to mention who knew if it would be a fatal shot.

Sometimes, saying no is better for both of us.

After confirming that the two were completely asleep, Li Shun removed the bat. Who would have thought that the seemingly gentle and refined scholar was actually a pervert?

"Has our plan failed?"

"I don't know, but isn't eavesdropping a bit unethical?"

"That's true to some extent, but we lack so much virtue that this little bit won't make a difference."

...........

Shi Yu slept soundly through the night, without a single dream. She felt it was the most comfortable sleep she had ever had in her eighteen years of life.

It wasn't just because of the warm and soft beauty in his arms, but more importantly, Shiyu learned what it meant to find peace of mind and true belonging.

Bai Yu likes to snuggle up to Shi Yu's warm spot when she sleeps, so Bai Yu used her past confession and the ring exchange as leverage to persuade Shi Yu. She curled up into a ball, with only her head sticking out, completely nestled in Shi Yu's arms.

After Shiyu woke up, Baiyu woke up as well. The two looked at each other and then suffered a brief spell of demonic possession before getting out of bed to wash up.

After the two finished washing up, Bai Yu seemed to suddenly remember something and tugged at Shi Yu's sleeve.

"Should I call him 'Master' or 'Husband' from now on?"

Shi Yu paused for a moment, then patted Bai Yu's head and said.

"Call me Shigure when someone is around, and call me whatever you want when no one is around."

"good!!!"

Shi Yu led Bai Yu into the kitchen, and everyone looked at the two of them with curiosity.

"Didn't these two do anything last night?"

"I guess, otherwise would you be able to get out of bed today?"

"........."

Shi Yu naturally didn't hear the discussions, because Qi Wu pushed a plate of oysters directly in front of him.

"The first batch of oysters just came out of my father-in-law's oyster farm; they're safe to eat raw."

"Let's see what's going on?"

Shi Yu took a knife and pried open an oyster, squeezed some lemon juice on it, and looked at the old man.

"Boss, aren't you going to eat something?"

"No, I went oyster fishing today too, and I've had fresher ones."

"Did they peel off the shell before even scooping it out?"

"uh-huh."

While eating, Shiyu didn't forget to pass two more to Baiyu, who, being a cat, naturally loved eating raw food.

However, Bai Yu doesn't really like lemon juice; she prefers to eat it raw.

After finishing breakfast, Shi Yu helped Liu An clean up the kitchen. After they finished cleaning, the holographic screen in the kitchen suddenly lit up.

"Everyone, we have a job."

Guan Yun's holographic projection appeared in the kitchen, holding a holographic panel in his hand.

"According to the investigation, the eerie roaring sound was coming from a private abandoned hospital in the west of Nanhai City. This is evidence and recordings provided by nearby residents."

As Guan Yun spoke, he tapped the screen, and then an extremely angry, eerie roar came from Guan Yun's holographic display.

"This guy is very strong, otherwise he wouldn't dare to make those eerie roars and unleash his eerie power during the day."

"What about the hospital's intelligence?"

Qi Wu said in a calm voice, while Guan Yun took out a holographic model of a hospital.

"Twenty acres, and it could be even larger if you include the underground area."

"I've been observing with satellites these past few days. The outbreaks of the supernatural power mainly came from the emergency department of the hospital. There were no outbreaks of supernatural power elsewhere, only supernatural roars."

Qi Wu stroked his chin and said.

"Da Niu and Li Shun will act as backup outside. Liu An and I will go in."

Li Shun, who was drinking tea nearby, suddenly thought of something.

"Didn't Nannan say this morning that she wanted you to take her and her sister-in-law to the amusement park?"

"It's okay, I'll make it up to her next time."

At this moment, Shi Yu, who was standing to the side, patted Qi Wu on the shoulder and said.

"Sister Liu An and I are going in. Boss, you go and keep your wife company."

"It just so happens that Sister Liu An and I haven't been on a mission yet, so please let me have this opportunity."

Qi Wu was immediately stumped when he saw Shi Yu volunteering.

Because Qi Wu was a headhunter in the south, he and Qi Nannan basically never fulfilled any of their agreements other than those involving money.

He didn't want to break his promise, but since he was in this position, he had to finish his business with the hunters before he could go to take care of his family.

Shi Yu naturally noticed the hesitation in Qi Wu's eyes and patted Qi Wu on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

"I'm very strong."

As he spoke, Shigure summoned the Remnant Flame Evolution Device and held it in his hand.

"The four of us can handle things here; we have enough manpower."

"Breaking a promise is something that can only happen once or twice, not three or four times."

After hesitating for a while, Qi Wu patted Shi Yu on the shoulder and handed her something.

"Thank you for your help this time."

"If you have any problems, just ask me for help, and I'll be there right away."

Shi Yu reached behind her waist and pulled out the Demon Blade, sheath and all.

A faint wisp of lightning coiled around the scabbard, and after flashing a few times, it gently exploded.

"Don't worry, boss."

"I am very strong."
