Chapter 975 Father Xi Found The Truth



Father Xi felt a shiver dance up his spine and immediately turned to look behind him when his eyes fell on Lady Yan who was walking inside the living room with a beaming smile on her face. She was holding a casserole in her hands and was looking at the father and son with a warm expression on her face as she said, " Dad, Sang'er, come and eat these lamb chops that I have made this morning. I went to hunt for a young lamb this morning, it was quite difficult as it was being protected by two angry adult lambs but I was able to catch it with my skills. I have been cooking since the morning, take a bite —— you will see how easily the meat will strip off the bone."

After she was done speaking, Lady Yan placed the casserole on the table before picking up the lamb chops and then placing them on two plates. Mother Xi had refused to eat breakfast again because her stomach had been feeling queasy ever since she had eaten the meatballs cooked by Lady Yan. Maybe it was her woman instincts but Mother Xi couldn't eat the meat cooked by Lady Yan and strictly ate a vegetarian diet saying that she was suffering from high cholesterol.

Father Xi however would sometimes eat meat since he was not used to eating vegetables for the entire three meals what was more he had to work on the farms for the entire day. He needed the extra bit of energy to work hard for his family as his son was not earning anything but for some reason, he felt a shudder rise in his heart when he saw the lamb chops cooked by Lady Yan.

He did not know why but his heart was telling him to take a bite of the lamb chops in front of him but he did not get a chance to refuse as Xi Sang pulled him to the table with him and then had him sit down on the chair. As Father Xi sat down, his eyes met with Lady Yan who smiled at him.

This smile was inexplicably strange and eerie in his eyes, causing Father Xi's heart to shudder with fright.

His face turned pale but he did not get the chance to refuse as Lady Yan placed a large chop on his plate and said, " Father I went to the forest early this morning to get this lamb hunted, take a bite all right?"

Xi Sang was already on his third lamb chop when he turned to look at his father with his mouth full of grease as he nodded and then said, " Come on father, it tastes really good. The meat is soft and chewy—— surely this lamb was really young when it was butchered. Hurry up and take a bite." n0VelusB.c0m

Father Xi did not know what was happening but for some reason every time he heard the words young lamb, he felt really nauseous. He looked at the lamb chop in front of him and then turned to look at his daughter in law who smiled at him before taking a bite from the lamb chops, a satisfied moan left her lips as she finished the lamb chops on her plate while going to take another one from the casserole.

Was something wrong with this ghost woman? Was it because of her that his sister and her family vanished? No, he must be scaring himself. There was no way that Lady Yan would have killed his sister right? Even the celestial master who came to check up on Lady Yan told them that this ghost was all right and did not have any evil Qi on her!

Father Xi repeated those words in his head again and again, thinking that he must be misunderstanding this ghost woman and that everything was just a coincidence but when he thought about how Xie Meiqing's mother-in-law died and no one came to pick up her corpse even after three days, he felt that something was wrong but what he couldn't place his hands on the matter.

Did something happen to his sister? But even if something happened to his sister, there was no way his brother-in-law would leave his mother's corpse inside the house unattended right?

Father Xi wanted to think that he was only scaring himself but the more he thought the more terrified he became. This situation continued until he picked up a lamb chop and then took a bite from it, as soon as he bit the meat the fishy taste once again spread all over his mouth causing him to frown as he looked at the lamb chops in front of him.

However, he did not think much about it as the meat that Lady Yan brought with her always had such a taste to it but that was until his eyes fell on the diamond ring on his plate.

Puzzled, he looked at his daughter-in-law and his son who were feeding lamb chops to each other before looking down at the diamond ring and picking it up. He thought that it was the ring which was handed to Lady Yan by his son but that was until he noticed the small inscription on the back of the band of the ring.

Zhao and Xi.

Father Xi immediately turned the memories in his head and tried to remember the day when his sister got married. Back then, his wife made a huge fuss saying that the diamond on his sister's wedding band was bigger than hers and that she wanted the same one as well. His eyes fell on the big diamond in the middle of the ring and immediately stood up from the chair.

A wave of nausea washed over him but Father Xi controlled his expression and then turned to leave. Seeing him go back to his room all of a sudden and that too without eating anything, Xi Sang couldn't help but frown as he said, " Father, where are you going? You did not even eat anything yet."

Father Xi wanted to slap his son until the latter was half dead but he did not say anything instead he simply smiled and made an excuse " I am feeling a bit nauseous. Leave the chops for me, I will eat them later on."
