Qi Yuanwei nearly choked on a mouthful of blood. He'd seen ruthless people before, but never one this ruthless. All he was doing was helping someone find something; how could they be so treacherous?
Mo Qingcheng smiled knowingly and gave Qi Yuanwei a look that said, "Use it or not."
Qi Yuanwei took a deep breath: "Okay! Deal!"
Lin Feifei pouted: "You're smart enough to know your place, otherwise Sister Mo would have raised the price. This is a friendly price, humph! You're getting a good deal and still acting innocent..."
Qi Yuanwei: "..."
Ma Yun was dumbfounded, feeling like his eyes couldn't take it all in; what he had just witnessed was simply too shocking. After that, Ma Yun became convinced of one undeniable fact: whenever Madam Mo was around, he should stay far away from others, otherwise he would fall into this trap without even realizing it.
"Mrs. Mo, you are mighty! I bow down in admiration!" Ma Yun accidentally blurted out his true feelings and cautiously looked at Qi Yuanwei.
Thankfully, the adults weren't angry.
Qi Yuanwei looked at Mo Qingcheng: "Mrs. Mo, may we begin?"
“Of course!” Mo Qingcheng nodded: “What is Young Master Qi looking for?”
"Half a jade pendant..."
"Hmm? What about the other half? What shape is it?" Mo Qingcheng immediately perked up; this was going to be fun.
Qi Yuanwei took out a dark, black jade pendant from his person and handed it to Mo Qingcheng.
Mo Qingcheng frowned slightly. Putting aside the strange shape of the jade pendant, the aura emanating from it... seemed strangely familiar.
Seeing that Mo Qingcheng remained silent for a long time, Lin Feifei became anxious for Qi Yuanwei. She stepped forward, craned her neck, and asked with a face full of curiosity, "Sister Mo, why is this jade pendant so ugly?"
It's the ugliest jade pendant I've ever seen, bar none. Could there be something wrong with it? Otherwise, why would that Vengeful Spirit try to trick Sister Mo?
In Lin Feifei's opinion, Qi Yuanwei was just there to set a trap for them, and she and Mo Qingcheng happened to be caught in the trap and got hurt.
Qi Yuanwei frowned slightly: "Madam Mo..."
"Wait, let me think... This jade pendant seems... somewhere I've seen it before..." Mo Qingcheng waved her hand, signaling everyone not to disturb her.
"Little Junjun, come and take a look. Does this thing look familiar?" Mo Qingcheng couldn't remember it at all, so she calmed herself down and talked to Farm Jun.
Farm-kun stopped rolling around and sneezed: "Little witch, what are you going to do with such a vicious thing? Are you waiting to find your coffin?"
"What do you mean?" Mo Qingcheng was startled. "Little Junjun, are you saying that this jade pendant is tainted with the aura of death?"
"What do you think? Throw it away quickly... otherwise, who knows what strange things might happen in the dead of night?" Farmer looked disgusted and quickly fled, refusing to speak again no matter how Mo Qingcheng questioned him. Mo Qingcheng's expression turned serious. She looked up, her gaze meeting a deep pool: "Young Master Qi, where did you get this thing?"
Qi Yuanwei frowned: "Is this important?"
"Yes, it concerns your... the life and death of your yamen..." A flash of fury appeared in Mo Qingcheng's beautiful eyes.
Lin Feifei was startled: "Sister Mo, are you... really telling the truth?"
Mo Qingcheng looked at Qi Yuanwei: "I am not exaggerating. You... had better... explain the whole story..."
A murderous glint flashed in Qi Yuanwei's eyes: "Are you sure?"
"Why would I lie to you? If you don't believe me, fine!" Mo Qingcheng glared at Qi Yuanwei, then turned and left.
"etc!"
Qi Yuanwei reached out to pull Mo Qingcheng away, and Lin Feifei's expression changed drastically: "Young Master Qi, you... shameless!"
