Chapter 141 The Shopkeeper is Too Enchanting 21
Mo Chen woke up from a turbulent sleep. The drug that Zhang Fu had given her was quite potent. She slept so deeply that she had no idea what had happened.
Mo Chen supported herself on the cushion and sat up. Her body was limp. She didn't know if it was because the effect of the drug had not worn off or if Zhang Fu had given her some other drug. She tried to use her internal energy but found that she couldn't use anything. It seemed that he had given her something like a muscle-softening powder while she was unconscious.
Mo Chen reached into his collar, pulled out a medicine bottle from his chest, and poured a pill into his mouth. His internal strength was immediately restored to a large extent, and a lot of his strength also came back.
Mo Chen had long expected that Zhang Fu would drug her, so she was prepared. The reason why she placed it on her chest was that she guessed that Zhang Fu would never do anything to her, especially in some private areas.
The elixir she prepared cost a lot of money. It can cure all kinds of poisons, no matter how strong the medicine he gave her is.
Mo Chen moved to the side of the carriage and lifted the curtain. It was bright outside and the sun was at its highest point. The surrounding environment was very remote. Mo Chen could not tell how many days they had been walking, nor how far this place was from the capital.
There were several guards on horseback around the carriage. When they noticed that Mo Chen had woken up, they immediately informed Zhang Fu. Soon, Zhang Fu, who was sitting in front of the carriage, lifted the door curtain and looked at Mo Chen.
"Don't look at me, young lady. We have been on the journey for three days and are very far away from Jin now."
Mo Chen kept looking out the window, not paying any attention to Zhang Fu. "I slept for three days. Your medicine is really powerful."
Zhang Fu smiled slightly and said humbly, "Miss, you are a skilled martial artist. I was afraid that ordinary drugs would not work on you, so I asked someone to find the most potent kind."
"Heh!" Mo Chen sneered, "You've thought it through very carefully. In addition to the sleeping pills, I'm afraid you've put something else in there to make me lose all my internal energy, right?"
"Miss, you are really smart. After you fell unconscious, I fed you some muscle softening powder. The effect of the drug can only last for three days, but after taking this medicine, you will not be able to perform martial arts for a month, so you can't escape."
Zhang Fu's voice was calm, but there was a hint of pride in his words, which was annoying to hear.
Mo Chen frowned and threw down the lifted curtain heavily. The curtain hit the carriage with a crisp "click" sound.
Mo Chen leaned against the back of the carriage impatiently, closed his eyes, and urged with disgust, "Get out, I get annoyed when I see your face."
Facing Mo Chen's bad words, Zhang Fu was not angry. It was just the little girl being stubborn. She was angry now. Since he didn't want to see her, he could just leave. Anyway, she didn't have the ability to escape now.
Hearing the sound of the door curtain being lowered, Mo Chen opened his eyes again, and his expression looked a little better. Although he knew in his heart that Zhang Fu was just a clown, he still found him disgusting when he saw his smug look.
Two days later, Mo Chen and his entourage drove through the city gate and went straight to the prime minister's residence.
These past two days, Mo Chen regretted taking the antidote so early. He was clearly full of energy, but he had to pretend to be weak and powerless. It was quite tiring.
For example, now she has to pretend to be weak and be supported by the maid to go to her own courtyard.
Zhang Fu was concerned about his status as a stranger, so he just sent Mo Chen to the front yard, told Qin Xizong to come back to see her after he was done, and left.
At this time, there were several maids following Mo Chen. From what Zhang Fu said, Qin Xizong specially arranged them to take care of her.
Mo Chen tested these maids. They were all ordinary people and did not know martial arts. It seemed that they were quite confident in the effect of the muscle softening powder, which made it convenient for her to do some small moves.
"After Mr. Zhang left for Jindu, the master arranged for someone to clean up the best courtyard in the mansion. There are many precious items in it. Miss, you will definitely like it."
The little maid who had been coveting Mo Chen introduced him to her with a happy face.
"Really?" Mo Chen's expression was half-smile, "Qin...ah no, father, what did she tell you about me."
"Hmm..." The little maid lowered her head and recalled, "The master didn't say much. Some time ago, the master suddenly said that he had another daughter who would be back soon and asked us to take good care of her."
"Is that so? If your wife knew about this, wouldn't she be angry?"
"Madam? Madam has always listened to the master, and for so many years, Madam has been pregnant without any movement. Knowing that the master has a hidden gem like you, Miss, she should be very happy."
Ha! Mo Chen sneered in his heart, a bit of disdain flashed across his eyes, but with a faint smile on his face, "Then I feel relieved."
"Miss, this is your yard from now on. Let me help you into the room first."
Mo Chen walked into the courtyard and looked around. The courtyard was indeed nice and it looked like it had been well taken care of.
It was not known whether Qin Xizong was truly sincere or had some other purpose. Mo Chen did not believe that he could be truly sincere to his daughter.
"Okay, I'm a little tired. You all go out and let me rest for a while." Mo Chen walked into the room and sent everyone out. It was always uncomfortable to have someone guarding around.
After seeing that everyone had left, Mo Chen relaxed and collapsed on the bed, pretending that he was very tired and finally had a break.
After several days of traveling, although she had been sitting in the carriage, she still felt physically and mentally exhausted. Mo Chen adhered to the idea of making the best of it and soon fell asleep.
It was unknown how long it had been before Mo Chen was awakened by the maid knocking on the door. She said it was time for dinner and she would be taken to have dinner with her two step-parents.
Well, I have to go act again.
Mo Chen stretched, stood up and walked out of the room. He hadn't seen Qin Xizong for a long time, so let her go and meet him.
"Oh! This is Chen Chen, you are so pretty. It's great for the master to have a daughter like you."
When she entered the dining room, the woman at the table enthusiastically took Mo Chen's hand and seemed very happy about her arrival.
Mo Chen did not respond but looked at the woman in front of him calmly. This was the young lady from a wealthy family whom Qin Xizong later married. It was said that she was also arrogant when she was young, but now she has become humble and docile. It seems that Qin Xizong's PUA skills are amazing.
Mo Chen broke free from her hand, found a seat far away, and said to the woman in a distant tone, "You are Qin Xizong's wife. You must know that he and I don't have a good relationship. I don't want to acknowledge him as my father, so you don't have to please me. This will not change my mind."
After saying this, Mo Chen didn't even look at the current Mrs. Qin's expression. He picked up his chopsticks and started eating the food on the table.
"Wait! The master hasn't come back yet! Why are you so unruly!" Seeing Mo Chen behaving so rudely, Mrs. Qin could no longer maintain her composure and excitedly raised her voice and scolded him.
But Mo Chen was unmoved by her words. She picked up the meatball in front of her and swallowed it in one gulp. While chewing, she said, "I'm too hungry and can't wait any longer. I don't think your master will mind. By the way, your chef is quite good."
"you......"
Madam Qin stretched out her trembling hand and pointed at Mo Chen. She seemed to be very angry and her words were not clear.
"Hahahahaha, our house is so much more lively today!"
Mrs. Qin was just about to open her mouth to teach Mo Chen a lesson when a burst of hearty laughter suddenly came from the door, making her forget about it instantly. She withdrew her hand and looked towards the door expectantly.
Mo Chen pretended not to hear and continued to enjoy her dinner.
