deadly mantra

Chapter 517 Why are you getting thicker and thicker?

Hearing the sound, Feng Xiaoyao lowered his eyes and fell into thinking.

After a while, Feng Xiaoyao's starry eyes shone brightly, and she stared at Ji Fanyin with a sly look. She didn't say anything, and just kept smiling.

Ji Fanyin laughed so hard that her hair went straight all over her body:

"You, you...what other nonsense are you thinking in your head?"

Feng Xiaoyao grinned, showing his white teeth:
"I knew you must know something. Sure enough, I guessed it right."

Ji Fanyin rubbed the goose bumps on her arms and glanced at Feng Xiaoyao warily:
"There are no more clues! Don't expect me to tell you anything else!"

Feng Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows and said excitedly:

"Huh? Is there anything else?"

Ji Fanyin was speechless:
"..."

Feng Xiaoyao sat on the armrest of the chair, put his left hand on her shoulder, pressed it slightly, and said with a smile:

"I suddenly realized that if you follow Baozi and the others, even if you break their legs, you can still find some drizzle of clues. But if I keep pestering you, hehe, what you 'dig' will definitely be amazing information."

Ji Fanyin was choked by him, and then spoke after a long while:
"...I bought all the information with money."

Feng Xiaoyao nodded, his serious look seemed a bit like getting an advantage and acting like a good boy:

"I know, but I have no money and no source of information. I only have you."

Ji Fanyin opened her eyes wide in shock, exhaled twice, and exclaimed:
"Feng Benben, why are you getting thicker and thicker?"

Feng Xiaoyao smiled and said nothing, with an expression that said what can you do to me.

Ji Fanyin was speechless. After a while, her jade finger pointed to the sachet embroidered with black lotus on the table and said:
"Just play with it and don't pester me."

Feng Xiaoyao walked over, picked up the sachet, opened it, and poured out a small delicate jade bottle. He turned back suspiciously, glanced at Ji Fanyin, uncorked the bottle and smelled it, and a faint fragrance hit his nostrils.

What the dead girl took out must be a rare thing that cannot be bought with a lot of money.But……

"What do you mean?"

Ji Fanyin spoke calmly and said slowly:
"Everyone can add the icing on the cake, but not many can help in times of need. If you go to the Ji Mansion empty-handed, I'm afraid even the servants of the Ji Mansion won't respect you any more."

Feng Xiaoyao:

"Then this is...?"

Ji Fanyin said calmly:
"I can't use the heart-protecting elixir that others treat me with respect. If I have nothing to do with it, I will have nothing to do with it."

Feng Xiaoyao silently clenched the medicine bottle, feeling an indescribable complex feeling in her heart. After a long time, she squeezed out one sentence:
"...I'll tell you on Baozi's behalf, thank you."

Ji Fanyin rolled her eyes:
"I'm not doing it for her!"

Feng Xiaoyao felt choked and opened her mouth. When it came to the question on her lips, she lacked the courage to ask.

The next day.

Ji Fanyin's face was gloomy, sitting in the reception hall of Ji Mansion.

Feng Xiaoyao made a fist with her right hand, put it to her mouth, coughed to hide her snickering, exchanged a few words with Bao Yide, and handed over the Heart-Protection Pill.

Bao Yide did not refuse out of politeness. Out of the corner of his eye, he accidentally caught a glimpse of the totem pattern engraved on the back of the jade bottle. He immediately recognized the origin of the medicine. With eyes full of surprise and gratitude, he walked back to Feng Xiaoyao and clasped his fists again with great solemnity. Thank you.

The moment Mu Chanyi who was accompanying him saw the Heart-Protecting Pill, his eyes flashed, he glanced at Ji Fanyin without any trace, lowered his eyes and remained silent.

After a while, Bao Yide led a few people to Mrs. Ji's courtyard.

The Ji Mansion was haunted last night. Mrs. Ji stayed up until dawn. She couldn't hold on any longer, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Bao Yide handed the heart-protecting pill to Mu Chanyi, left her here to treat Mrs. Ji, and then took Feng Xiaoyao and Ji Fanyin towards the deserted courtyard behind.
