Jiang Muyao coughed lightly:
"I'll need some special herbs and instruments. I'll make a list for you."
Pei Linyuan looked at her thoughtfully:
"That thing about the third brother..."
[Your third brother? The unlucky guy who was tricked by Jiang Baiwei?]
Jiang Muyao almost blurted out what she was thinking, and quickly changed her words:
"You saw that I even had to borrow energy from you to draw a talisman..."
"I'm struggling to protect myself right now, so how can I care about others? Besides, everything is already planned!"
Pei Linyuan's eyes darkened: What would have happened to the third brother?
Jiang Muyao sighed:
"If we hadn't stopped him today, Haoyu would have been slowly eroded by that evil thing."
She paused, her tone serious: "First, his temperament changed drastically, he became irritable and angry, and then..."
"And what?"
[Then he became a complete lunatic and ended up spending the rest of his life in a mental hospital.]
Jiang Muyao chose her words carefully: "Then they will gradually lose their minds and do something...irreversible."
Pei Linyuan clenched his fists: "For example?"
"For example...for example, suddenly going crazy in a board meeting and leaking company secrets to competitors.
or..."
[Or he would self-harm in his room and end up in a mental hospital.]
She whispered, "Or hurt yourself until you lose yourself completely."
Pei Linyuan's face was gloomy, his fists clenched, and he asked quickly: "What now?"
"Now the evil thing has been destroyed by me." Jiang Muyao comforted.
"However, there may still be residual evil energy in Haoyu's body, which needs to be slowly treated."
"How do you know this?"
"The art of Xuanmen emphasizes observing the aura and the complexion. If Haoyu's forehead is dark and there is a shadow between his eyebrows, it is obvious that he has been bewitched."
"Then can I..."
"Stop!" Jiang Muyao waved her hands quickly.
"I need your energy even to draw a talisman now, so how can I have the energy to care about others?"
[Why are there so many things?! So many requests and questions!]
Pei Linyuan looked at her impatient expression, and raised the corners of his lips slightly:
"How much energy do you need, wife?"
Jiang Muyao was stunned: "Huh?"
"I say."
He leaned closer and asked, "Wife, how much energy do you need to help the third brother completely eliminate the evil energy?"
Just as Pei Linyuan's lips were about to touch Jiang Muyao, there was a sudden knock on the car window.
"Brother! What are you doing in the car?"
The voice of Pei Yichen, the second son of the Pei family, came through the car window.
"Mom asked me to come and see why you haven't come into the house for so long."
Jiang Muyao was as if she had been pardoned and quickly pushed Pei Linyuan away.
[I'm saved, but I just need some air. Why am I so nervous?]
Pei Linyuan frowned unhappily and lowered the car window: "What's the matter?"
Pei Yichen looked inside, his eyes swept across Jiang Muyao's flushed face, and his tone was a little sarcastic:
"What's wrong? Your face is so red, are you causing trouble again?"
Pei Yichen was about to continue his sarcasm when he suddenly heard a female voice in his mind:
[My goodness, has the Pei family stirred up trouble?
The second son of the Pei family is quite playful. He even got a ghost girlfriend! He works overtime with her every day.
He took a step back and looked around warily:
"Who is speaking?"
Jiang Muyao and Pei Linyuan looked at each other, the former looked confused, while the latter had a meaningful expression.
Seeing him like this, Jiang Muyao was too lazy to just stand there and stare at him at the door. She opened the car door and walked around him into the house.
[It's over, it's over. Could this guy be too possessed and hallucinating? Better stay away and don't get infected.]
As soon as Jiang Muyao entered the living room, she saw Pei's father and mother sitting on the sofa drinking tea.
Seeing her come in, Pei's mother forced a smile:
"Mu Yao is back. Are you feeling better?"
There's nothing wrong with this daughter-in-law, she's just too noisy.
[What's so good about that! Seeing all the "surprises" in your Pei family's house, I'm afraid I'll have to go to the hospital again.]
The deal I made with Pei Linyuan was a complete loss! I shouldn't have saved this Pei family member...]
The teacup in Pei's mother's hand fell onto the coffee table with a clang, and the tea splashed all over the floor.
"Mom?" Pei Linyuan stepped forward quickly, "Are you okay?"
Mother Pei's face turned pale, and she looked at Jiang Muyao dully:
"You...what did you just say?"
She kept staring at Jiang Muyao and didn't see her open her mouth, but she couldn't have misheard the voice.
Jiang Muyao looked bewildered: "I didn't say anything."
[Why are all the Pei family members so weird? ]
The newspaper in Pei's father's hand fell to the ground with a "clatter".
He stood up suddenly and pointed at Jiang Muyao: "You, you..."
Jiang Muyao took a step back: [Is this father-in-law going to go crazy too? ]
Pei Linyuan held his forehead helplessly: "Dad, Mom, calm down."
"Calm down," Mother Pei's voice trembled, "She said that our Pei family..."
[Everyone in your Pei family has problems, each one more miserable than the other.
The mother-in-law was put under a spell and became suspicious all day long. Finally, she was poisoned by her best friend and became paralyzed in bed.
He couldn't even recognize his own son and could only live out his life alone in a hospital bed.
The father-in-law was even more miserable. He was put under a spell by the mistress and deceived into raising someone else's son. He was even foolishly planning to transfer the company's shares to the illegitimate child.
In the end, the company was emptied, the family property was squandered, and even the old house could not be kept, so he had to live on the streets.
The second brother, Pei Yichen, was even more outrageous. He found a female ghost in red as his girlfriend. Not only was his yang energy sucked out of him, but in the end, even his soul was taken away, and he became a puppet of the female ghost.
