After being kicked out of the wealthy family, her ancestor shocked the world

Madam Mu looked over and said, "Mr. Li has a good eye. My husband bought that Guanyin Snow Lotus from an auction house in the underground market a few days ago. He said it can ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters."

In the past, Madam Mu would not have believed such absurd remarks.

But in recent times, the Mu family has suffered a huge blow.

"Underground market?" Mr. Li was surprised. "I've heard that the underground market in Haicheng is full of treasures, especially the auction house, which has rare items. I didn't expect that there would be Guanyin Snow Lotus!"

He is not a core figure in the field of ancient medicine, he has just touched that threshold.

He had never seen such a fine product before.

"Yeah, it's a pity that place is too messy." Mrs. Mu frowned, her tone full of disgust for the underground market.

Those who would go there were either rich or noble, and she had also heard about the bad things there.

It is hard to imagine that such activities still exist in today's civilized society.

Mr. Li looked lingeringly for a while before he looked away.

Madam Mu called the housekeeper, "Take Mr. Li and his assistant to the room."

The butler nodded and turned sideways.

"You two, please come this way."

Mr. Li glanced at Guanyin Xuelian, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.

……

After three more days of drowsiness, Chu Peining finally regained his energy and spirit.

I woke up at twelve noon, just in time for dinner.

It seemed that because he didn't eat well in the past few days, Chu Peining ate more today than usual.

Mo Peiyun looked at her with pity and served her a few of her favorite dishes.

"You've lost weight, eat more, and there are still some desserts after you finish eating."

Xi Luobai silently put the food into his mouth: "..."

He came early and had known Mo Peiyun for a long time, but the difference in treatment was too big.

After a hearty meal, Chu Peining slumped in his chair with a satisfied look on his face.

Mo Peiyun handed over a tissue considerately, "I've asked for a week's leave for you. Take good care of yourself during this time and go back to school next Monday."

Chu Peining nodded, "Thank you."

Mo Peiyun touched her face and smiled brightly.

"Why thank you brother?"

Chu Peining turned her head away, looking a little unnatural.

"I still have to thank you."

Mo Peiyun chuckled and slowly approached: "Brother has worked hard to take care of me these days. How do you want Ningning to thank me?"

In one sentence, the atmosphere became ambiguous.

Xi Luobai stood up silently and returned to his room without saying a word.

Anyway, he would be a nuisance if he stayed here.

The scene of Mo Peiyun holding him and feeding him a few days ago was still vivid in Chu Peining's mind. He thought about it and then turned his head.

In the air, their eyes met.

She quickly looked away and avoided looking at Mo Peiyun's light gray eyes.

"I'll give you something that can ward off evil spirits."

Mo Peiyun raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, but still nodded.

"it is good."

He has a lot of things that can ward off evil spirits.

But none of them achieved the effect he expected.

When out of control, it will be instantly corroded by Yin energy and can no longer be used.

Just like the jade pendant that Xi Luobai gave him.

But if it was given by Chu Peining, he would not and would not allow this to happen.

Chu Peining lowered her eyes and estimated in her mind how long it would take to prepare that thing: "It will probably take three or four days."

"Well, brother will wait for you." Mo Peiyun rested his chin on the table with his hand, his light grey eyes filled with a smile, so tender and sweet that it seemed as if water would drip out.

Chu Peining's eyes dodged, "I want to go back."

"Go back? Go back to the Mu family?" Mo Peiyun frowned, very reluctant. "You were abused like that, brother will make them pay the price, but before that, you'd better not associate with anyone related to the Mu family."

After such a long time, he also figured out the Mu family's attitude towards Chu Peining.

From the moment she entered the door, Mrs. Mu was very dissatisfied with her. In Mu Zhehan's eyes, she was seen as someone who fawned on the powerful and wealthy and used her beauty to please them.

Not to mention the contempt of Mu Suhua, who had married down and had no status in the Mu family.

Even if it wasn't because of Chu Peining, Mo Peiyun still couldn't stand that family.

He specifically investigated the operations of the Mu family over the years and found that they had been on the rise for the past decade or so, and even once rose from an ordinary wealthy family to one of the four largest wealthy families in Haicheng.

This is a qualitative leap.

Not to mention how shocking their rise is, the fact that they have never fallen in more than a decade is incredible.

It's just that the upward trend is very slow.

This matter was too strange, and he even asked Xi Luobai about it. The other party only replied: "The secret cannot be revealed, but the change has already begun."

The Mu family is indeed in a downward period now.

Mo Peiyun thought that it was his previous malicious revenge against the Mu family that led to this result.

If you think about it carefully, there are many unreasonable aspects.

In the past few years, many people were jealous of the Mu family's rise to the top, but no matter whether they framed or falsely accused them, or launched group attacks, they could not change the trend.

He only made a slight move, how could such a mysterious family suffer such heavy damage?

Stopping thinking about it, Mo Peiyun stared at Chu Peining with a warning look.

Chu Peining: "...I just want to go back to the house I rented before."

"So that's how it is." Mo Peiyun's serious expression instantly became gentle, "Do you need to get something? Just send someone over. It's been almost a month, so I might as well quit."

"With brother here, Ningning will not be left homeless." His eyes were full of tenderness, "Brother, this place is Ningning's home."

Chu Peining originally intended to refuse.

After all, she and Mo Peiyun were not that close, and she had stayed at his place before because she was afraid that Bai Wei would take malicious revenge on the people around her.

Now that the matter has been resolved, she has no reason to stay.

But those light grey eyes were just too captivating.

Coupled with the enchanting face, the temptation reaches its peak.

Chu Peining tried hard to remain calm, but still fell into the eyes of the poison man and nodded for some unknown reason.

Mo Peiyun smiled gently, very satisfied with her response.

"That's it, I'll send someone to bring your stuff back."

"I'll go." Chu Peining came back to her senses. "I don't have a lot of stuff, so I can go alone. Besides, I don't like others touching my stuff."

Mo Peiyun nodded, "Then I'll send someone to pick you up."

"Come and pick me up?" Chu Peining asked in confusion.

"Xu Ming has some things to deal with, so he won't be in Haicheng for the time being. I'll send someone else to protect you." Mo Peiyun said as he took out his cell phone and made a call.

Chu Peining's eyes were blank and no one knew what he was thinking.

She had investigated Xu Ming's strength before. Even in the sect hundreds of years ago, there were few disciples who could reach his level.

In today's world where inner strength is almost lost, it is completely impossible.

She guessed that perhaps the place where Xu Ming practiced martial arts might contain some martial arts secrets passed down from ancient times.

As for the "other person sent", Chu Peining thought that perhaps he and Master Xu Ming were from the same school and their strengths were not much different.

After all, there are quite a few ancient warriors in this villa.
