Chapter 15 I lied to you
Pei Yinghuai couldn't sleep for many days because Mu Nanyue's words disturbed his heart. He wanted to go and ask for clarification, but was afraid of being fooled.
I'm afraid he's just being too sentimental.
But it was unclear, and Pei Yinghuai was confused and extremely irritated.
He is not a timid person, but he is often hesitant when facing Mu Nanyue.
"Mr. Pei, please come in." While he was frowning in thought, the expressionless guard blocked his view and stretched out his hand to show him away.
Pei Yinghuai: “…”
He remembered the guard.
A few days ago, I saw with my own eyes that he threw Fu Qian'an out of the Mu family.
Pei Yinghuai pursed his lips, turned his sleeves and left with a sullen face. However, when he stepped out of the door, he suddenly turned around and quickly came to Mu Nanyue.
Her vision was blocked, and the cool scent of cedar entered her nose. Mu Nanyue leaned back, looking straight at him with her dark eyes.
"what?"
Pei Yinghuai looked at her, his narrow eyes filled with obscure emotions, and he finished his words in a hoarse voice: "What do you mean? Do you really not like Fu Qian'an?"
He didn't even notice that there was a hint of anticipation in his tone.
Noticing his nervousness, Mu Nanyue suddenly wanted to tease him, "I was kidding."
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Yinghuai's handsome and enchanting face darkened a little, and there was a moment of scarlet in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
"I knew you were a liar! You said you liked me, but only a fool would believe you!" He said in a sarcastic tone.
Mu Nanyue was enveloped by a dangerous aura, which was emanating from the person in front of her. She secretly thought that it was not good.
The joke is on.
Don’t lose the favorability you just gained.
"I would never lie to you!" Mu Nanyue chuckled. "Fu Qian'an only wants to use me. I'm not a fool. How could I be kept in the dark by him?"
Hearing this, the broken man recovered instantly, but did not get the answer he wanted.
Pei Yinghuai couldn't help but feel anxious.
"What about me? What do you think of me? I am absolutely loyal and I don't mess around with other women. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west."
After saying that, he regretted it.
Mu Nanyue couldn't help laughing, "Are you recommending yourself?"
Facing her surprised eyes, Pei Yinghuai gritted his teeth and admitted, "Yes! We were childhood sweethearts, although we didn't get along well and even fought when we were young."
"Now that you've grown up, it's not surprising that I'm attracted to you, right? Is there something wrong with my self-recommendation? Or is there another man who is more worthy of you than me?"
Mu Nanyue: "..."
This confession came too suddenly.
But it was also within her expectations. After all, Pei Yinghuai's favorability towards her was as high as 90 points, which was almost as important as her life.
Mu Nanyue became serious, "Does your family know about this?"
"Liking you is my business. What does it have to do with my parents?" Pei Yinghuai frowned slightly, not coming back to his senses for a moment.
Mu Nanyue took a deep breath, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, as if she was smiling: "So you only express your love for me verbally, and you don't want to have any further development, right?"
Both of them are outstanding among the younger generations of the aristocratic families. If they are together, it is not only about their feelings, but also the future interests of both families.
Pei Yinghuai reacted and couldn't help but breathe heavier. He stared at her with his narrow eyes, "Are you serious?"
She wants to marry him!
Pei Yinghuai had been fantasizing about this for many years, and now his dream is coming true!
It felt so unreal, and a feeling of anxiety spread through his heart, making him afraid that this was just a dream.
Wake up, everything is the same as before...
"Of course!" Mu Nanyue nodded, "I always take relationships seriously."
After her rebirth, she did have the idea of finding a man to marry, and she once spent a night investigating the young masters of various noble families.
Mu Nanyue is not looking for a male slave, but a young master from an aristocratic family who can marry into the Mu family.
At that time, she didn't know that her father could be cured. She was the only legitimate daughter of the Mu family. In addition to wanting to become stronger, Mu Nanyue also wanted an heir so that the Mu family could always stand at the top.
Otherwise, if something happened to her, her huge family would be swallowed up like fat meat by others.
"Don't think about going back on your word!"
In an instant, the tall figure in front of Mu Nanyue disappeared without a trace, leaving only Pei Yinghuai's slightly warning words.
"Or I'll lock you up!"
Mu Nanyue: “…” Hehe.
She hadn't realized at this time that the villain Pei Yinghuai was really a madman.
"Favorability +5."
The system prompted again, and Mu Nanyue was inevitably a little surprised, "So fast!"
With just a few words, Pei Yinghuai's favorability towards her increased by 10 points.
Could it be that he has been suppressing it?
Now that he got her response, Pei Yinghuai no longer controlled himself and soared all the way?
"If my guess is correct, then after we get married, won't our favorability be full marks?" Mu Nanyue clicked her tongue.
Don't take it too easy.
system:"……"
Don't take advantage of the villain's favor and recklessly underestimate the difficulty of conquering the target.
And the auction is still going on.
Without Pei Jinshu's interference, Mu Nanyue successfully bought the 'Ten Thousand Years Resurrection Ganoderma' at a relatively normal price when it appeared.
After the third hammer fell, the host said happily: "Congratulations to Miss Mu for buying the twentieth auction item, the Ten Thousand Years Resurrection Ganoderma Lucidum, with twenty-three million spirit stones!"
Pay the money in one hand and deliver the goods in one hand.
Mu Nanyue took the things and did not stop, but took people out of Mingsheng Auction House through the back door.
She knew exactly how fierce the bidding was for the 'Ten Thousand Years Resurrection Ganoderma'.
The world where the strong are respected is very cruel, and killing for treasure is not uncommon. Even though Mu Nanyue is on her own territory, she still has to be wary of being assassinated.
At this time, on the spacious bluestone road, a low-key carriage was moving slowly and steadily, and bursts of small crisp sounds were heard.
Mu Nanyue, wearing a purple dress, was half lying in the carriage. She supported her head with one hand and looked at the thousand-year-old resurrection-returning Ganoderma lucidum in the box with her bright eyes.
The quality is okay, and it should be effective when used with other medicinal materials.
Mu Nanyue was thinking when the carriage suddenly stopped. She had a bad feeling in her heart, "What happened?"
The guard didn't respond in time.
Soon, the sound of weapons clashing, along with the guards' shouts, reached their ears.
"Miss, there's an assassin!"
Hearing this, Mu Nanyue reached out, lifted the car curtain and walked out. She happened to see the guards being beaten back by many people. Her face looked extremely ugly.
"Kill!" Mu Nanyue said coldly, with a fierce look in her eyes, "Don't spare any one!"
As the order was given, more than a dozen black shadows appeared out of nowhere, and the secret guards led by Yun He and Yun Feng quickly attacked the assassins.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The secret guards were well-trained and their attacks were quick, accurate and ruthless. The assassin was soon at a disadvantage and tried to escape but was tightly surrounded, unable to flee.
The only assassin still alive showed despair. He cried like a grandson and immediately knelt down to beg for mercy: "Miss Mu, please don't kill me! We are also doing this for money!"
"As long as you are willing to spare me, I can tell you who my employer is!"
The assassin thought Mu Nanyue would agree and wanted to know who had harmed him.
However, Mu Nanyue, who was standing on the carriage, narrowed her eyes and looked down at him condescendingly, "What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me, a discarded child who was sent here to die?"
The next moment, the assassin begging for mercy had his eyes widened and his neck was wiped off.
Yun Feng put away his sword quickly and said to Mu Nanyue respectfully, "Miss, I have sent someone to investigate their identities."
