"Don't be noisy, I'm watching it." Hearing a sound coming from behind her, Mu Yanfei didn't think much of it and directly answered.

Suddenly, she felt a chill run down her spine and she suddenly panicked.

That voice just now, why did it feel somewhat familiar?

She turned around in panic, but suddenly met Chi Chengxuan's deep black eyes that were filled with playfulness.

Where did he come from? Did he know some kind of wall piercing technique?

She forced a smile and greeted him, "Little uncle, I thought you were inside."

Chi Chengxuan indifferently glanced at her, then directly opened the door and entered the study.

Mu Yufei followed him inside, all tensed up, not daring to relax in the slightest. It was really awkward to peep at the bag being grabbed.

"Speak, what is it?" His tone was slightly cold, perhaps because of his usual indifference and estrangement.

It was true that she had come to find him for a reason, and since he had already spoken, there was no need for her to hide it.

"Little uncle, can I trouble you to arrange for someone to protect my brother and uncle's safety?"

Her uncle was still in the hospital, and her brother was taking care of her uncle. She was still worried about the hospital, since it was too easy for outsiders to disguise themselves, even if they wore a white robe and a mask.

He had long since made arrangements for these matters. Since she had personally spoken, he might as well tease her and take a look at her anxious appearance.

He casually leaned back on the sofa, looking elegant and reserved, as he revealed a slight smile that had an unknown meaning to it.

Mu Yanfei didn't know if this was considered as him agreeing or not agreeing?

She slowly approached him and cautiously spoke again, "Little uncle, are you willing to help?"

Chi Chengxuan lifted his hand and gently stroked his chin, exuding a sense of unruliness as his slightly narrowed eyes contained a faint sense of ridicule.

"If I help you, what benefits will I get?"

"…" He was already as rich as a kingdom, and yet he still liked to quibble about such matters. Could it be that the wealthier a person was, the more stingy they would be?

For the sake of her uncle and younger brother, she was still patient as she asked amiably, "Little uncle, what kind of benefits do you need?"

Chi Chengxuan pretended to be deep in thought for a while, then he looked at her, sizing her up from head to toe, "I don't lack money, I have houses, cars, it seems …"

Hearing this, Mu Yanfei's face alternated between green and white. If he really needed money, she wouldn't be able to give him the house or the car, because right now she was just a pauper.

"I'm the only one, nothing else."

She was afraid that he would suddenly ask something too outrageous, so she could only express her opinion first. The only person she could give was her person, but he had already enjoyed her, so it probably wasn't attractive to him at all.

"Deal!"

"?"

Was he trapping himself so that he could burrow into it?

"Remember, you are mine from now on. Don't always think about leaving." Chi Chengxuan crooked his finger at her.

She understood what he meant, and slowly walked towards him. Just as she walked in front of him, he pulled her onto his lap, his powerful arm tightly around her waist, and his chin on her shoulder.

"Fei Fei, without my permission, you can't even think about escaping." His tone was domineering, not allowing for disobedience. She, who didn't have the slightest bit of power, could only accept it.

"..."

After hearing that Chi Chengxuan arranged for people to protect her brother and uncle, Mu Yanfei finally relaxed. Thinking that she had left behind a lot of homework, she said to Chi Chengxuan who was currently focused on his work, "Little uncle, I'll head back to my room to review my upcoming exams."

"Bring your study materials here." After Chi Chengxuan finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something and stood up from his high grade spinning chair. He walked in front of her and placed his hand on her shoulder, "Sit here, I'll go and get it for you."

Mu Yanfei stared in astonishment at Chi Chengxuan's back as he walked out of the study. Had he taken the wrong medicine today? Why was he always doing something that she found hard to digest?

Forget it, she should just enjoy it peacefully. Since he was willing to work for her, it was she who earned the money. Why not? Thinking about it like this made her feel more comfortable.

After resting at home for a few days, with Mu Yanfei's legs having recovered, she once again returned to school to attend classes.

Just as she walked into the school, her good friend An Qingyan followed behind her. "Fei Fei, are you alright?"

Hearing the caring words of her good friend, Mu Yanfei's heart felt warm. Luckily, she still had friends in school who didn't try to distance themselves from her on purpose like the others.

"I'm fine."

An Qingxi then relaxed and changed the topic, "Fei Fei, in the days you didn't come to school, that Teacher Su came to find you."

Hearing this, Mu Yanfei frowned slightly. There definitely wouldn't be any good reason for Su Manlin to come looking for her.

She didn't leave Chi Chengxuan as she had wished. She probably even wanted to kill her now, so don't expect her to have an amiable side to her.

"Yo, isn't this Big Sister Fei?" Mu Zhiqing's voice carried a bit of mockery, sounding exceptionally ear-piercing. "You've finally crawled out from under that 'old man' '' s blanket?"

She even emphasized the word 'old man' in her voice, as if she was afraid that no one would be able to tell the meaning behind her words.

Seeing that she didn't have the intention to pay any attention to Mu Zhiqing, she thought that this must be another trick of Mu Zhiqing to trap Mu Yanyu. She couldn't help but argue for her, "Mu Zhiqing, Fei Fei is your cousin after all. Aren't you afraid of retribution for slandering her like this?"

Mu Zhiqing cast a disgusted glance at An Qingyan who was standing beside Mu Yan Fei. She gave off a feeling of vulgarity as she spoke in a mocking tone, "Country bumpkin, is it your turn to speak? and don't look at yourself in the mirror to see what you look like. "

After a pause, she continued, "It's not your fault for being ugly, but it's your fault for scaring people."

Upon hearing her unflinchingly sarcastic remarks, An Qingxi was not the least bit angry. Instead, she looked at her with amusement. The powder on her face had been smeared thick enough that she had the nerve to mock her for her ugliness and horror!

She used the words she had read about people online as a counterattack. "You're nothing, really. You're just a barking dog."

"Pfft!" Hearing this, Mu Yan Fei couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Mu Zhiqing was angered to the point that her face turned blue. She glared fiercely at the two of them before leaving in large strides.

Looking at her figure that left in a rage, An Qingyan curled her lips, "Fortunately she left, otherwise I would have still wanted to say that she closed her eyes for the night and got pounced on by the pigs!"

"Mu Yan Fei, it was really hard to find you."
