Chapter 296: Chapter 296 How Much We Miss You_1

Seeing Wang Xiaohan truly angry, Zong Wangyue quickly apologized, "It was just a joke, don’t take it seriously."

At that moment, the voice of the lady boss coincidentally came from inside, "Little Han, come and help me for a moment."

"Okay, I’ll be right there."

Before leaving, Wang Xiaohan still glared fiercely at Zong Wangyue.

You turned to Zong Wangyue and said, "Don’t tease her in the future, you should know her temperament, and, from her attitude, it’s not hard to see that she has deep feelings for your wife, speaking with respect."

Zong Wangyue shrugged his shoulders, "Got it, I didn’t do it on purpose."

Soon enough, Wang Xiaohan and the lady boss came out of the room carrying two very large cardboard villas, and upon seeing this, you and Zong Wangyue hurried forward to help.

Fortunately, your night snack truck’s cargo compartment was just big enough, one load could barely fit everything; afterward, you also put four life-sized female paper effigies onto the truck.

Unlike ordinary ritual goods stores, the products in Wang Xiaohan’s sister-in-law’s store were made with great care. Not to mention the villas, the female paper effigies alone were exquisitely crafted. They had fewer harsh angles compared to regular paper effigies and even in the eyes of the living, they were considered handicrafts, not giving people any uncomfortable feelings.

After moving the items, you asked Wang Xiaohan’s sister-in-law, "Lady boss, how much is all this in total?"

"Oh my, it would be awkward to talk about money, these are all made of paper, they’re not worth much."

"But that’s not how it works, I must pay." Knowing that Wang Xiaohan’s sister-in-law would insist on not taking the money, you turned to Wang Xiaohan and asked, "Little Han, how much is the total?"

"Two thousand," Wang Xiaohan blurted out without hesitation.

"Alright, good."

"Little Han, these things aren’t worth two thousand!"

Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaohan replied indifferently, "Two thousand just happens to cover this month’s rent."

"Little Han! They are your friends, you can’t... "

"Ah, sister-in-law, don’t be so formal with us!" Just then, Zong Wangyue had already taken out a wad of cash and handed it to Wang Xiaohan, saying, "Take the money, and if it’s too much, consider it my apology."

"I don’t want it, just two thousand." Wang Xiaohan had always been someone who stuck to her principles. She counted out two thousand and stuffed the rest back into Zong Wangyue’s hands.

Seeing Wang Xiaohan act like this, you asked her sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, are you having difficulties with the business?"

Upon hearing you say that, Wang Xiaohan’s sister-in-law sighed softly, "Business is getting tougher to run nowadays, but luckily, Little Han is growing up. In another couple of years, she can start working."

Looking at Wang Xiaohan, her sister-in-law’s face naturally displayed a gentle smile.

You, looking at Wang Xiaohan’s sister-in-law, said, "Sister-in-law, if you encounter any problems, don’t bear them alone. Our society is a big family. You’re Little Han’s sister-in-law, and you’re our sister-in-law, too."

Wang Xiaohan’s sister-in-law nodded her head, turned away, and with her hand chapped from the cold, gently wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes.

"You’re asking for death!"

A sudden shout came from not far away, followed by a shadow that quickly appeared and threw a punch at you!

You dodged to the side just in time, avoiding the punch. The punch came with a whoosh, carrying a burst of Qi Force as it swung.

"Zongzi, protect Little Han and her sister-in-law inside the store!"

While speaking, you threw a full-force punch at the shadow!

"Bang!"

The punches collided, the energies clashed, causing both you and the shadow to stagger back several steps.

"Boss, be careful!"

Upon hearing Zong Wangyue’s voice, your eyes suddenly widened, and the two Sen Luo Curse Marks in your pupils quickly flashed!

"Thunder Curse!"

You let out a sudden shout and immediately four orange talisman papers flew out of your pocket!

The orange talisman papers, swirling with thunder and lightning, flew towards the shadow and rapidly circled above its head, the air immediately filled with the crackling sound of thunder and lightning!

The lightning of the four talisman papers intertwined, forming a ring of thunder that completely enveloped the shadow, revealing its face at the same time.

It was a burly man who looked to be in his late twenties, but his face bore the signs of hardship.

"What are you waiting for, hurry into the house!"

Zong Wangyue ran to Wang Xiaohan and her sister-in-law, urging them into the shop with an anxious expression.

However, by then, both were already in tears, especially Wang Xiaohan’s sister-in-law, who had collapsed on the ground, covering her mouth with both hands and weeping incessantly.

"Brother, brother!"

Wang Xiaohan finally let all her emotions burst forth and rushed toward the man engulfed by the ring of thunder.

Seeing Wang Xiaohan doing so, you frowned and rushed to her side, grabbing her and asking, "Little Han, what are you doing?"

"Brother! Boss, he’s my brother! He’s my brother who’s been missing for years!"

Overwhelmed by emotions, Wang Xiaohan then sat down on the cold ground, crying out loud.

You turned to look at the man and found that his eyes were also moist as he walked towards Wang Xiaohan.

With a wave of your hand, the four Thunder Curses turned to ash and fell to the ground, you stepped back to let the man crouch in front of Wang Xiaohan.

"Brother, are you my brother?"

The man nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I am, I am your brother! Little Han!"

"Brother——"

Wang Xiaohan, overwhelmed with emotion, flung herself into her brother’s arms.

Wang Xiaohan’s brother helped her up and brought her to her sister-in-law, who had just stood up, and embraced her.

Perhaps because years of longing and anticipation had finally been released, Wang Xiaohan’s sister-in-law wept even more loudly, her hands striking violently against the broad and solid back of Wang Xiaohan’s brother.

"Where have you been all these years! Do you know how much we’ve missed you! You bastard! Bastard! Bastard!"

Wang Xiaohan’s brother let his wife beat on his body, just holding her as if he wanted to hold her until the end of time, until the seas dried up and the rocks crumbled.

Once the three of them had somewhat calmed their emotions, all five of you entered the shop and sat down around a small table.

According to Wang Xiaohan, her brother was named Wang Zimo, and her sister-in-law was named Chen Qingzhu.

Wang Zimo and Chen Qingzhu were high school classmates. They met and fell in love in high school, and against the strong opposition of Chen Qingzhu’s family, they eloped to Yuhang and got married seven years ago.

However, just as their happy life was about to begin, Wang Zimo suddenly disappeared. No matter how Chen Qingzhu and Wang Xiaohan sought for him, he remained unheard of.

Hearing this, you couldn’t help but look at Wang Zimo, the Sen Luo Curse Mark still slowly revolving in his eyes.

Wang Zimo looked at you, as if he had something to say but hesitated.

You smiled at Wang Zimo and said, "Brother Wang, you’re Little Han’s brother, which makes you a relative of everyone at the Supernatural Detective Agency. Rest assured, we’re all on your side."

Your words were somewhat cryptic, and while Wang Xiaohan and Chen Qingzhu couldn’t understand, Wang Zimo repeatedly nodded, thanking you with his somewhat husky voice: "Thank you."

"You’ve been reunited after a long time and must have a lot to talk about, so I won’t disturb you."

With that, Zong Wangyue and you got up and left.

After getting into the car, Zong Wangyue suddenly turned to you and said, "Boss, I feel like there’s something strange about Wang Xiaohan’s brother, like there’s an aura about him that makes me uncomfortable."

Surprised that Zong Wangyue also had such perceptiveness, you turned to look at him and said with a smile, "Oh? You noticed too?"
