Chapter 37: Zhang Simiao (Part 2)

After putting down the phone, Zhang Qiao drunk a lot of alcohol, but he was not drowsy. He felt that what happened this night was like a nightmare.

When a sound of a hairdryer sounded in the bathroom, Zhang Qiao breathed a sigh of relief and hurried to the kitchen to boil a cup of hot milk. When Zhang Simiao came out, he gave it to her.

Zhang Simiao took it over and said helplessly: “Dad, I have brushed my teeth.”

“Milk will help you to sleep well. You can rinse your mouth after you drink it.” Zhang Qiao looked at her carefully and asked unsteadily, “Would you like dad to leave the lamp on when you sleep later? Or would you like dad to sleep in your room? I can sleep on the floor when I stay with you.”

“It’s okay. I’m not scared anymore.” Zhang Simiao sat on the sofa holding the milk: “Actually, nothing happened to me. As soon as I got out of the car, Lin Qingyin came. I didn’t get hurt at all.”

Zhang Qiao nodded again and again: “It all thanks to your classmates. When your mother comes back, we will go to her to thank her.”

Thinking of the scene she saw this evening, Zhang Simiao still felt a little unbelievable: “Dad, let me tell you, Lin Qingyin is amazing.”

Zhang Qiao didn’t quite understand the meaning of this sentence. Zhang Simiao slightly frowned, seemingly in difficulty to express it in words; “I happened to sit by the same table with Lin Qingyin during dinner break today. She told me not to take a black car when I went back home.” She looked at Zhang Qiao and continue: “At that time, mother hadn’t called me to tell me that you were not coming to pick me up.”

Zhang Qiao raised an eyebrow in surprise: “You mean she guessed that you would ride a black car? It’s impossible, right?”

“At first I thought she was just talking random, but after she saved me, I thought it was her calculation. Do you know why our principal called her Little Master? I heard from Mr. Fatty Wang that either it’s fortune-telling or feng shui formation, Lin Qingyin is very powerful.” Zhang Simiao held the cup of hot milk with a tangled expression: “You may not believe it. In fact, the stones on the ground weren’t the ones she threw to beat the driver. It was the formation set by Lin Qingyin.”

“Formation?” Zhang Qiao couldn’t help but smile as he touched Zhang Simiao’s hair. He wanted her to go bed, but he heard Zhang Simiao say earnestly: “What I said is true. After she threw the last stone, the driver becomes crazy. He took out a baseball bat and smashed his car until it almost turns scrap. Later, Mr. Fatty Wang said that the driver of the black car might not be sentenced for long. Lin Qingyin said that it would be better to hand over the case to heaven. She took out some stones and tell us to step back because lightning is coming… …”

Zhang Qiao looked at Zhang Simiao dumbfounded: “Then the driver of the black car was struck by lightning?”

Zhang Simiao nodded her head: “The lightning strike accurately. It hit the car together with the driver. Because of that, we are all fine.”

Zhang Qiao’s expression also seemed to be struck by lightning. His world view changed. Why was that? He had heard about Feng Shui and fortune-telling, but he has never heard of anyone who can use Feng Shui like this.

If what Zhang Simiao said was true, didn’t he saved a lot of money for the stones he bought for 20,000 yuan?

Seeing Zhang Simiao finished drinking the milk and rinsing her mouth, Zhang Qiao, who was still adamantly earlier, couldn’t help but say: “Remember to wear your amulet.”

Zhang Simiao went to bed, but Zhang Qiao couldn’t sleep. He sat on the sofa and made a pot of tea. While waiting for his wife to return, he pondered what his daughter said.

Zhang Simiao has been the kind of well-behaved girl since she was a child. Zhang Qiao knew that she would definitely not tell lies, but it was too strange to say that it was true. This can’t be said that he was lacking in knowledge. Perhaps some people really have witnessed this kind of event.

After drinking a pot of tea, Zhang Qiao’s wife, Ding Hong came back. Without changing her shoes, she ran directly to Zhang Simiao’s room and only felt relieved when she saw her daughter sleeping in the bed.

Zhang Qiao pulled Ding Hong out and closed the door carefully, then the two talked about what happened at night. Earlier, before he learned what happened, Zhang Qiao was worried that his wife will become very anxious, so he simply said that he haven’t seen their daughter. He will go out and look for her.

But the school was only an hour away from their house. So no matter how much he concealed it, Ding Hong felt something went wrong. No mother could stand this kind of blow. So Ding Hong came back immediately while crying all the way.

Zhang Qiao also boiled a glass of milk for Ding Hong while she was changing clothes, then the two slowly continue to talk about what happened. Unlike Zhang Qiao, Ding Hong completely believed what Zhang Simiao and Principal Wang said.

“In that kind of crisis, Principal Wang thought of calling Lin Qingyin first. He must know her abilities. The police will know if that person was strike by lightning as soon as they arrived in the hospital. So they didn’t lie to the police.” Ding Hong glared at Zhang Qiao: “And you, they have saved your daughter. They are the benefactors of our family. They are living gods! What is wrong with them? There are so many capable people in the world. Even if you haven’t seen one, it doesn’t mean that there is no such capable person. Does your view represent the whole world?”

  1. “Does your view represent the whole world?” Ding Hong is very broadminded and wise! I’m so going to use this from now on. 😀 Thanks for the update! Love this story.

  2. Mmm…Thinking about it some more, there are tons of oddities here. From the School that was supposed to be for the Elites but became mainly for second generation rich kids that didn’t pass their original exams or so. To said rich families.

    You’d think the school would be more careful but it seems like they just let the students go, out of sight out of mind, so to speak. Even when they have classes that run up to late at night.

    And as for the rich families, Idk if it was just this family or many others more but kinda odd that they don’t seem to have body guards nor butlers and such to help assist and watch over the kids.

    This string of events seems to have happened due to said holes. Idk if I just some things or if I was right but yeah.
