Wu Weixi had nervously closed her eyes, pouted her lips, and tilted her head back, imagining that she could kiss that soft touch.
She was filled with excitement. As long as she could kiss Feng Zining, she was not afraid that he would not marry her!
They were destined to be together!
However, this kiss landed on something hard, somewhat damp, and with a fishy smell.
Wu Weixi: "?"
She opened her eyes with a whoosh, and what came into view was a huge crab claw.
Feng Zining smelled the fishy smell coming from the crab claws. This fishy smell diluted the strong fragrance of peach blossoms. The dazed look in his eyes faded and he instantly regained his clarity.
As the memories returned, Feng Zining's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He grabbed the crab claw from Nan Yuanman's hand as if he had been electrocuted and retreated rapidly.
He looked warily at Wu Weixi, who looked annoyed, pulled his mouth out of the crab claw, and said to Nan Yuanman, "Yuanman, this person is definitely suspicious! Just now, that wasn't my intention! I felt like I was being controlled!"
Otherwise, why would he suddenly want to kiss her while interrogating her?
He and Wu Weixi aren't the male and female leads in an idol drama! They can't just kiss each other no matter what they're doing!
Wu Weixi listened and retorted with great dissatisfaction: "I have no problem! Fourth Master, our marriage is ordained by heaven! It is the red thread tied by the Peach Blossom Goddess herself!"
"Peach Blossom Goddess?" Nan Yuanman squatted down in front of her, waving a peach blossom toy in her other hand. "Is this the person who gave you this?"
Upon seeing the familiar peach blossom toy, Wu Weixi's expression changed, and she struggled to turn around to look at her bag that had fallen to the ground.
Sure enough, the bag's clasp popped open, and its contents scattered all over the floor.
Wu Weixi struggled nervously, trying to snatch the peach blossom toy from Nan Yuanman's hand: "Give it back to me! This is mine!"
"I can give it back to you." Nan Yuanman tilted his head. "First, tell me, where did you get this from?"
This peach blossom toy has been cursed with a spell of fate.
The Curse of Fate is somewhat similar to the Love Gu, but the only difference is that it is not as harmful to the body as the Love Gu, nor is it as difficult to cure.
All that is required is for the person who has obtained the Bonding Mantra to carry its vessel with them day and night, to pray fervently in their heart, and to think of the other person they wish to be with.
Then the Love-Binding Spell can influence the other party, causing them to fall in love with her from the bottom of their heart and do many things that go against their own wishes.
For example, the reason why her fourth brother suddenly put her down and left his seat to go find Wu Weixi was because her thoughts of him were too strong, which affected him.
Even the way Fourth Brother was interrogating her just now, he wanted Wu Weixi just like that, which was also based on her own desires.
This spell was originally used to enhance the relationship between a young couple, but after being modified by evil forces, it became a kind of evil spell similar to puppetry.
However, its effect on the person who cast the curse is slow and subtle. If Feng Zining had not learned about the other side of this world through Nan Yuanman, he would have been unknowingly affected.
Nan Yuanman was young and not very proficient in these spells. In addition, the influence of the Entanglement Spell was too subtle, so she did not notice anything amiss for a while.
If she hadn't seen the pink peach blossom toys scattered in Wu Weixi's bag, she really wouldn't have been able to figure out why her fourth brother was acting so strangely.
Wu Weixi didn't know why Nan Yuanman would ask these questions, so she honestly replied, "I got this from a temple in Siam. The head monk there said it's a talisman from the Peach Blossom Goddess, which can help me find a good match and make my wishes come true."
Upon hearing the name Siam, Feng Zining immediately thought of their country's most famous item—Kuman Thong.
His brows furrowed, and he looked at Wu Weixi with a hint of disgust in his eyes.
A knowing look flashed across Nan Yuanman's chubby face. It was from Siam, so that made sense.
After all, they are keen on doing these crooked and unorthodox things.
"Here you go." Nan Yuanman gently pinched his fingers, circulating his spiritual power to break the binding spell inside the peach blossom toy.
The moment the spell was broken, the faint fragrance of peach blossoms that had been lingering around them gradually faded away, and Feng Zining's mind became clearer than ever before.
Wu Weixi struggled to catch the toy, but the bodyguard behind her pressed her down hard. She cried out in pain, her eyes brimming with tears, and looked pitifully at Feng Zining, her voice sweet and coquettish: "Fourth Master..."
Feng Zining shuddered, goosebumps rising all over his body. He waved his hand and said, "Let her go."
The bodyguard did as he was told, releasing her and standing to the side.
Wu Weixi felt a slight relief. She hurriedly grabbed the peach blossom toy, slowly raised her lowered eyes, and looked at Feng Zining with watery eyes. Her red lips parted slightly, and just as she was about to speak, a short, stocky figure blocked her way.
Wu Weixi almost lost her composure. Before she could even ask Nan Yuanman to leave, she heard the childish voice say, "That's right, I broke the spell on this peach blossom toy. Auntie, if you want to fall in love, you need to put in time and effort, and most importantly, you need to put in your heart."
"Instead of resorting to crooked means to achieve your goals, a marriage obtained in that way is destined to be short-lived."
Wu Weixi's smile froze, her gaze falling on Nan Yuanman with a hint of horror, and her heart was filled with turmoil.
What does this child mean? What does it mean that... she broke the spell within the peach blossom talisman?
What does she know?!
Wu Weixi tried to maintain her composure: "I...I don't know what you're talking about."
She glanced at Feng Zining quickly, only to find that his eyes were perfectly clear, completely unlike the dazed look he had when he tried to kiss her earlier.
A bad feeling suddenly rose in Wu Weixi's heart. She dared not stay any longer and hurriedly got up and said, "Since Fourth Master is alright, I'll be leaving now."
Wu Weixi hurriedly left.
Feng Zining's tense body finally relaxed slightly. He squatted down in front of Nan Yuanman and asked anxiously, "Is everything alright now? Will she start bothering me again? If she does, will I lose control of my behavior like I did just now?"
"No, it won't happen." Nan Yuanman patted her fourth brother's broad shoulder reassuringly: "I've already broken the spell. Even if she clings to you now, you won't want to kiss her!"
Feng Zining was finally relieved after hearing this.
He couldn't help but rub his forehead and smile bitterly. He really didn't know what sins he had committed to attract such strange and wonderful things.
fortunately……
Feng Zining gripped Nan Yuanman's hand tightly, feeling incredibly fortunate. He now had his little cousin, and as long as she was there, no evil spirits could get close to him!
To reward Nan Yuanman, Feng Zining took her to a seafood feast, which was the same place where she had just taken the crab claws.
Looking at the bright red crab claws, Nan Yuanman was very curious about them. She refused Feng Zining's offer to help her peel the crab meat, stuffed the crab claws into her mouth, and bit down hard.
There was a crisp cracking sound.
The little dumpling's chubby, round face instantly scrunched up.
