“My social circle is quite clean!” Pei Mengzhi stuttered, “I do go to clubs, but I just drink. At most, I’ve spoken a few bad words about you.”
“But I’ve realized now, and I apologize to you! I don’t know who the unclean person you mentioned is?”
Si Fuqing raised an eyebrow, “With a sunken forehead and hairline close to the eyebrows, even I can tell your miserable appearance. You’re really unfortunate.”
She wasn’t originally studying physiognomy or feng shui, but since she was in the yin-yang master business, she understood a bit.
In the past, when she was on missions with her fifth senior brother, she was only responsible for fighting.
If she was really asked to deal with these feng shui matters, it was indeed troublesome.
It’s a pity she had a pet Pixiu that she could never fatten up.
Xiaobai noticed its owner’s cold gaze and stretched out a small paw to pat, “Aw!”
Pei Mengzhi took a deep breath: “Please tell me, Miss Si, how to resolve this.”
“Has anything strange happened at home?” Si Fuqing then stopped her bicycle. “Tell me about it.”
“At home?” Pei Mengzhi recalled, “If there’s anything strange, it’s that my pets die suddenly, mirrors often break, and in front of my door…”
Pei Mengzhi’s mother’s furious voice rang out, sharp and piercing, “Pei Mengzhi! How many times have I told you to stop entangling yourself with these actresses! What if you get entangled? Are you planning to marry her? I won’t allow it!”
Pei Mengzhi was startled at first, but when he saw who it was, he frowned. “It’s my mom. Miss Si, just ignore her. She’s going through menopause. Let’s go talk in a cafe.”
However, Mrs. Pei had already stormed over. Without saying a word, she raised her hand and swung it toward Si Fuqing’s face.
Pei Mengzhi was both shocked and angry, “Mom, stop!”
Si Fuqing calmly lifted her eyelids, effortlessly caught Mrs. Pei’s wrist, and swiftly twisted it.
Mrs. Pei cried out in pain and lost her balance, stumbling backward.
Zuo Qingya hurried to support her, “Mrs. Pei, are you okay?”
Mrs. Pei’s chest heaved with rage. She couldn’t believe that Si Fuqing had dared to lay a hand on her.
“I’m telling you, no matter how you cling to him, I will never allow my son to marry you!” Mrs. Pei gritted her teeth. “You better know your place and get lost!”
Si Fuqing leisurely rolled up her sleeves, her fox eyes curving into a smile. “Me? Marry him? Am I blind?”
Pei Mengzhi, filled with fear, blurted out, “No, no, no! I wouldn’t dare let Miss Si marry me. I should be serving her tea and water!”
Without Si Fuqing, Pei Mengzhi feared he wouldn’t even be able to save his own life. He was counting on her to protect him, and now his mother had to go and cause trouble at the worst possible time.
Watching Pei Mengzhi’s every move, Zuo Qingya was stunned and shrieked, “Brother Mengzhi, have you gone crazy?!”
Aside from her looks, what on earth made someone like Pei Mengzhi care so much about Si Fuqing? She must have cast some spell on him!
“Mrs. Pei, look at this,” Zuo Qingya immediately complained, her voice breaking, “Brother Mengzhi is completely bewitched by her.”
Mrs. Pei’s anger flared up even more. “Unbelievable! This is outrageous!”
“M-Miss Si, I’ve reserved a private room,” Pei Mengzhi wanted nothing to do with his mother’s outburst. “Let’s go, let’s go.”
But Si Fuqing didn’t move.
“Let me see,” she said, tilting her head with a smile. “Mirrors suddenly shattered, loss of fortune, pets dying one after another, yin energy entering the house, and the whole family has been plagued by cold evil for over a decade… There's no hope left. You might as well wait for death.”
Mrs. Pei looked up sharply, her anger boiling over. “What nonsense are you spouting? Utter rubbish! Fine, I’ll call Zuo Tianfeng right now and see what kind of education he’s giving you!”
“Butler, bring me my bag.”
The butler approached and was just about to hand Mrs. Pei's phone over when a call came in.
The butler glanced at the screen and quickly said, “Madam, it’s an emergency call from the company!”
