"Brother, is the way you're looking at me scary?"
"Oh, that's just an illusion."
Ning Hong rubbed her face. "How about now? It's much better, isn't it?"
Mo Xiaomei lowered her head and remained silent.
It's still terrifying.
"Little sister, is your face a curse?"
Mo Xiaomei was stunned when she heard Ning Hongze say that.
"Brother, do you dislike me now?"
"No, that's not true. After all, everyone loves beauty. When it's safe, the prettier the better, but—" Now is a special time. "Now is not the time to be high-profile; now we need to be low-profile. So not only you, but also brother, I've been pretending."
Ning Hong touched her face and said.
It must be said that this life's face is the most beautiful face among all these worlds.
The original owner's mother had really strong genes, and both Ning Tianxing and Mo Wen were extremely handsome.
It's only natural that he and Mo Xiaomei are good-looking.
But he is a man.
A man with a woman's face—no wonder the original owner had no memory of his own face.
When Ning Hong first saw it, she couldn't help but look at her crotch.
Seeing that everything inside was in order, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, he's a guy.
"Host, please rest assured, this system is a brother system, not anything else, so you don't need to worry too much about suddenly turning into a girl," 0321 interjected appropriately.
Ning Hong was speechless. Even if she wouldn't turn into a girl, it was still heartbreaking.
Such a face would be the icing on the cake for a young lady from a noble family, but for a man like him, it is not a blessing, but a curse.
The original owner knew from a young age that his appearance was different from others. Although he didn't like looking in the bronze mirror, he was very good at hiding his appearance.
Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, he was just a slightly better-looking man. Basically, everyone around him lamented that his appearance was too ordinary.
He did not inherit his mother's beauty.
Ning Hong looked at Mo Xiaomei's face and took out some cosmetics from her shopping mall.
"Brother, what is this?"
"This was a gift from a friend from another country."
Ning Hong then held Mo Xiaomei down and began to apply makeup to her. "These things aren't very useful; once they're used up, they're gone."
After her makeup was completely done, Mo Xiaomei looked at herself in the bronze mirror and couldn't help but smile.
"Brother, your cooking is amazing! You're like a completely different person!"
"Of course." If you learn makeup well, what kind of look can you make up?
Of course, it can't compare to disguise.
However, he didn't understand the art of disguise.
Ning Hong thought to herself silently.
The two stayed behind the inn, and decided to go out and inquire about the situation outside.
They knew that Mo Wen, the master of the Sword and Saber Manor, was fighting with the alien race.
and--
"What did you just say? Master Mo Wen is injured?"
How is that possible?
"It's true. I heard that the aliens have Mo Wen's relatives in their possession. When Mo Wen saw those things, he vomited blood on the spot, which is why he was injured."
Do they have their things?
Su Liu?
It must have been done by that bitch Su Liu.
They must get back as soon as possible.
With that in mind, Ning Hong went out to hire a carriage, packed her things, and then took Mo Xiaomei to the Sword and Saber Manor.
The carriage had just started moving when it was stopped.
"Officer?"
Ning Hong smoothed her bangs, opened her big, hazy eyes, and stared intently at the guards at the gate.
"Is there something you need?"
"No, it's nothing, just a routine check." There were only two girls in the car.
They were both quite pretty young women. The inspecting soldier glanced at them briefly and then let the two of them leave.
They changed their makeup many times along the way before they were able to return to Sword Manor safely.
However, he was stopped by someone.
"No unauthorized personnel are allowed to enter."
"Look closely, I am Mo Hongze. Why won't you let me go home?"
"Mo Hongze?" That seems to be the young master's name?
The soldier hesitated slightly.
"Just let me in. If anything goes wrong, I'll take responsibility."
Seeing that the man was still hesitating, Ning Hong simply gave the order to drive the carriage into the Sword and Saber Manor.
He's only been gone for a little over a month, but it feels like a long time has passed.
He quickly walked to the courtyard of the original owner's nominal father.
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he suddenly felt that his father's yard looked much more desolate.
His father must get better.
If things don't get better, there's no place for their family of four at Swordsmanship Manor.
"Hehe, you're so beautiful, you should keep me company."
"How dare you! I am your aunt!" Su Zhen's rebuke came from inside the courtyard.
"So what? I've wanted to taste your aunt's flavor for a long time."
She was clearly a middle-aged woman, yet she was incredibly beautiful.
She was so beautiful it made my heart flutter. "Oh, by the way, I heard you have a daughter who is also incredibly beautiful. If she ever comes back, you should have her come and keep me company."
"Let me go! If you dare do anything reckless, I—"
"How are you? It's your good fortune that I've taken a liking to you, yet you're still being so coy. Mo Wen won't live much longer."
"You're being insolent! You're utterly insolent! The owner of this manor is Mo Wen. What gives you the right to stand here and make decisions? Get out!"
"Hahaha, do you think Mo Wen can hold on any longer? There are so many people in the manor who are hoping for his death."
The man's voice turned cold, "Since you refuse to listen to my politeness, then don't blame me for being impolite."
A sound like tearing silk was heard, followed by Su Zhen's scream from inside the courtyard.
"Don't touch me, go away."
Ning Hong's face was solemn.
He strode inside.
"Get out of my way." He kicked the man, sending him flying.
"Who are you?" The man rolled twice on the ground and stood up.
“I am your grandfather.”
"My grandfather died a long time ago." The man's face also turned cold. This man looked somewhat familiar? Could it be that Mo Hongze has returned?
Ning Hong then took out a handkerchief, and using the water in the yard, along with some toner concealed by her sleeve, poured some onto her face and washed off her makeup.
As soon as her face was revealed, Su Zhen's face lit up with joy.
“Hongze, you’re back.” Su Zhen clutched her clothes tightly, trembling all over.
Upon seeing her son, tears streamed down her face.
She was genuinely terrified. Her usually gentle and refined nephew had suddenly become so frightening, and even tried to harm her—
This was something she never expected.
