Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1104: Chapter 1098: Mysterious Man_1 Chapter 1104: Chapter 1098: Mysterious Man_1 It has to be said that Qin Su’e had a keen mind, she could zero in on the crux of a matter. However, no matter how much she tried, she couldn’t figure out that the person who had been tricking her was someone she had always regarded as a fool.

This man merely looked at her without uttering a word that’s scared Qin Su’e to stay silent. Seeing this, another woman’s heart tightened. Could there really be something going on between the two? However, with so many people present, it was not the best time to ask. So, smartly, she didn’t ask anything further and didn’t say a word more.

Molin felt an unexplainable sensation as he saw the man standing ahead. He had a hunch that something was off with that man, but what it was, he had no idea.

“Tsk tsk, quite a spectacle, Qin Xue. That woman really has no shame. How dare she speak so brazenly in front of so many people, and without even properly clothed,” Ouyang Ziyu observed Qin Su’e’s every move, not quite knowing what to make of it.

“A person needs face like a tree needs bark. Once a person loses their shame, they become invincible.” Qin Xue muttered to Ouyang Ziyu.

“What a classic saying.” Ouyang Ziyu agreed, wasn’t it true? Qin Su’e embodied this saying to perfection.

Qin Xue genuinely admired Qin Su’e. Even at a moment like this, she could put on such a brave front and even argue with others. It was hard not to respect her. But why did she seem so scared of that man? Qin Xue held her chin, deep in thought.

“Qin Xue, what’s going on here?” Qin Qiu and Qin Yun arrived to a lively scene.

“Eh, just what you see happening. You guys did good. But who is that man over there?” asked Qin Xue as she noticed Qin Qiu and Qin Yun’s arrival.

“Who are you talking about?” Qin Qiu didn’t know who Qin Xue was referring to.

“The man standing there, the tall one in front of Qin Su’e.” Qin Xue whispered to Qin Qiu.

“I think he is Fang’er’s stepfather, why do you ask?” Qin Yun inquired Qin Xue.

“I see. Just that Qin Su’e seems afraid of him.” Qin Xue didn’t know Fang’er, so she didn’t understand more from what Qin Yun said.

“That man seems to be a veteran, doesn’t talk much usually, and looks somewhat intimidating,” Qin Qiu added.

“Isn’t he from our village? You guys seem to hardly know him.” Qin Xue found the conversation between the siblings a bit awkward.

“No, he just appeared in our village suddenly and hasn’t been around for long.” Qin Qiu and Qin Yun shook their heads in unison. This man was brought back by Fang’er’s mom; nobody knows where she found him. Hence, the villagers initially knew nothing about his past. However, since his arrival, he hadn’t done anything bad.

“Such a man is definitely not simple. Can Fang’er’s mother keep him in check?” Qin Xue could tell the man was far from simple, especially since he was a veteran. His sudden appearance seemed quite bizarre.

“You’re right, Xue’er. I also find this man a bit odd, but I can’t put my finger on why.” Molin had been observing the man but found him increasingly inscrutable.

“He hasn’t done anything, but Qin Su’e lost it on seeing him. That’s what’s suspicious.” Qin Xue had been keeping an eye on Qin Su’e and clearly saw her fleeting look of fear when she saw the man. So, what was the connection between them?
