Chapter 52: Chapter 52: Bewitchment

After Su Muyao finished speaking, a prescription appeared in the space.

Looking at the prescription on the paper, Su Muyao felt assured.

When Su Muyao communicated with the Space System, she used her thoughts.

So neither Mei Qingchen nor Xiao Jihan knew.

Su Muyao then took out a piece of paper and wrote the prescription on it.

"This is the prescription, and these medicinal materials are not particularly rare and are easy to purchase."

"Following the prescription to give your mother medicine, your mother will wake up and her health will improve."

"However, to completely restore her health, you’ll need spirit treasure medicinal materials, the Thousand-year-old Xuan Frost Flower."

Su Muyao looked serious and earnest, her eyes clear and pure.

Leaving Mei Qingchen unable to suspect her.

Mei Qingchen took the prescription she had written.

Upon seeing her handwriting, Mei Qingchen’s phoenix eyes trembled.

This was indeed her handwriting.

She used to be a fool, only knowing some simple characters, and her handwriting was incredibly ugly, worse than that of a child who had attended school.

But now her handwriting was fresh and graceful, like the opening of an orchid, with a floating ease that contained an undeniable sharpness.

Moreover, her handwriting was not only beautiful but also exuded charm.

This astonished Mei Qingchen.

Even if someone changes a few habits, their handwriting is difficult to alter in a short time.

Su Muyao naturally didn’t know what Mei Qingchen was thinking.

She just felt that Mei Qingchen didn’t look well, thinking he was again doubting her prescription.

"If you’re not convinced, you can have your father consult a witch doctor or an Imperial Physician."

"Once the medicine is taken, your mother will wake up."

As Su Muyao finished speaking, suddenly she saw Mei Qingchen holding the prescription and walking towards her.

Mei Qingchen had a dignified and slender figure, dressed in ink garments with a noble aura.

The dark pendant between his brows added a mysterious aura to his whole being.

However, the aura was too cold and intimidating.

As he approached, he loomed over her, looking down at her.

Su Muyao didn’t know what he wanted to do and couldn’t help but retreat.

"Mei Qingchen, don’t you dislike me? Why are you getting so close?"

Su Muyao swallowed hard, feeling that Mei Qingchen suspected her of wanting to kill his mother and thus held murderous intent towards her.

But why didn’t Xiao Jihan intervene this time?

Xiao Jihan didn’t intervene because he didn’t sense any murderous intent from Mei Qingchen.

So he wouldn’t do anything to his wife.

He too saw the prescription, and upon seeing the handwriting on it, Xiao Jihan also fell into deep thought.

Mei Qingchen locked his cold and glamorous phoenix eyes on her face, observing her subtle expressions.

Before, her expressions were malicious and twisted, looking mad and fierce, making Mei Qingchen unwilling to look at her.

Therefore, he had never closely observed her.

Only now did Mei Qingchen notice her subtle expressions.

Is she afraid?

Ha!

Can she actually be afraid?

Mei Qingchen’s phoenix eyes narrowed dangerously, his aura closing in on her.

"Can’t I suddenly change my mind?"

Upon hearing this, Su Muyao’s pupils widened, looking at Mei Qingchen in fear.

He wouldn’t force himself on her, would he?

No...no way, absolutely not.

She came from the end times, and had no experience with such things, not even prepared mentally.

How could that be?

Su Muyao kept retreating until she backed into a corner, pressing her back against the wall, unable to retreat any further.

She swallowed hard, choosing her words with care, "Mei Qingchen, don’t be impulsive."

"Think about it, I did such a thing to your Lifebound Sword, and provoked your mother into an illness; you should hate me and feel physiologically repulsed by me..."

"Facing my face, you’re also unable to make a move, right?"

"I know you don’t trust me, but I promise, I will definitely heal your Lifebound Sword, especially since there’s Mystic Spirit Iron, your sword will surely recover, even better than before."

"Also, this prescription has no issues. Take it back to have it checked, and let your mother use it, then you’ll see its effects."

"I really mean no harm."

At this moment, Su Muyao felt utterly helpless, as if the Heavenly Thunder was rumbling!

Seeing Su Muyao’s reaction of fear and listening to her ramble on, Mei Qingchen’s mouth curved into a playful arc.

"So this is what’s on your mind!"

He leaned forward, whispered seductively in her ear, "So, who exactly are you?"

Indeed, you’re different.

If it were the previous her, she wouldn’t have dodged when he approached, and instead would have wished to cling to him.

Mei Qingchen’s phoenix eyes scrutinized her with an intimidating gaze.

Yet his tone was gentle, carrying a hint of seduction.

Like whispers between lovers.

If unaware of his nature, Su Muyao would really think he was softly speaking to her and getting close to her.

Only at this moment did Su Muyao’s expression change, frost covering her eyes, as she cautiously and warily attempted to push him away.

But she realized she wasn’t strong enough, Mei Qingchen’s chest was firm.

Appearing slender, but actually well-built.

She couldn’t move him a bit.

Only now did Su Muyao realize how weak she was in their presence.

For them to crush her or kill her, it’s as easy as squashing an ant.

She could only suppress the rage in her heart and use her thoughts to summon the Space System, "System!"

"Host, don’t worry, he won’t harm you."

"He’s a handsome man, host, isn’t he pleasant to look at?"

Listening to the system, Su Muyao was very speechless.

"No matter how handsome, he’s still toxic!"

Mei Qingchen wasn’t aware that Su Muyao was communicating with the system through thoughts.

He continuously observed her, and he could clearly feel that as soon as he said those words, her body instantly stiffened.

So she was afraid of being discovered for something?

Or had she been swapped?

So did those words hit on what she feared?

But if swapped, what was her purpose?

Mei Qingchen’s eyes narrowed dangerously, fingers tracing her ear downward, seemingly searching for a disguise.

Down to her collarbone, Mei Qingchen saw a small birthmark that was originally hers.

It was her!

Unchanged, and not swapped.

Mei Qingchen’s phoenix eyes narrowed, evidently in disbelief.

However, Su Muyao thought he was going to proceed further down.

In a split second, Su Muyao came to a decision, stood on her tiptoes, and took the initiative to hug Mei Qingchen.

She deliberately showed a gentle smile, "This is what you want, just say so, I am quite willing!"

Though inexperienced, she’s seen enough to fake it.

Mei Qingchen came to his senses and harshly pushed Su Muyao away.

"Indeed a trick of yours!"

Saying this, Mei Qingchen took out a clean handkerchief and wiped his hands firmly, then threw it into the garbage barrel in the courtyard.

He took another clean handkerchief and wiped his neck.

Seemingly extremely disgusted, he threw the handkerchief away.

His eyes also flashed with a look of disgust.
