The youth turned pale with fright and was unable to move. He could only stare with wide eyes. "What did you give me to eat?"

"Poison." Chen Mu Mu smiled as he spoke, "This thing is similar to your curses. Every ten days, you have to take an antidote, or else you will be pierced by a hundred bugs, the itch will not be able to endure. After two months, your intestines will rot and you will die."

The youth sucked in a cold breath as he looked at her in disbelief. "The most venomous thing to do is to scare the two of you. Is there a need to use such a vicious medicine?"

"As for that." "Your mouth is too good at speaking, and I'm also afraid of your so-called curse. If I don't give you a bit of assurance and you leave me with a curse, if you leave and cause me to fail in my business or follow in the footsteps of the Shangguan Family, then wouldn't I suffer a huge loss?"

The youth wanted to cry, but he had no tears. "Then why don't you take the poison? If I want to curse you, won't you be doomed?"

"It's not the same. Enjoying happiness alone is inferior to everyone's happiness. Unhappiness alone is inferior to misfortune everyone. I'll give you poison, and you curse me. If worst comes to worst, we'll die together. It's not a loss at all." Chen Mu Mu smiled as he looked at him, "In any case, I have a cheap life, so I don't mind dying. I'm very happy to have someone to accompany me."

The young man was speechless. The so-called dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, and she was much more proficient than him. After thinking for a while, he said with a pained face, "I am just a godly figure in the martial world. Didn't you just verify it? How could I curse others? If I had, this restaurant would not have been impossible, right?"

"But I don't believe it." Chen Mu Mu shrugged as he smiled innocently, "I'm a businessman, I can't afford to gamble with you."

The teenager sighed as he felt like he had been lifted off a rock and thrown onto his feet.

"If you give me the antidote, I swear I won't curse you, okay?"

"Sorry, I don't believe in oaths." Chen Mu chuckled, "No matter how much you swear, no matter how ungrateful you are, it's useless."

Swearing, only idiots would believe it.

Even if the Heavens were to open their eyes, it would still be a few years before they would kill those who went back on their words. If she believed that the Heavens were waiting for her to take revenge on those who went back on their words, then maybe even her grave would grow old.

When people died, everything would be for nothing. When things happened, she would punish them. It was simply useless. What she needed was this moment.

Only now could he give her the most tangible benefits.

The youth curled his lips. "We've only known each other for the first day, how do you know that my character is not good enough?"

Chen Mu Mu smiled. "I have eyes to see. What you've done today, do you dare to say that it's fair and square?"

"You little girl, your mouth sounds good, but how could you have that kind of ability to lie to me about poison just by giving me a candy? "You think I'm stupid?"

Chen Mu Mu glanced at him with a grin on his face, "You're not stupid."

However, what she gave him was really poison.

There was no helping it, some people just deserved to be taught a lesson.

Although she was an atheist, there were many things in the world that could not be explained by science, such as curses.

Initially, she could not, but it should not be a coincidence for the eldest son of the North King Palace to be cursed for generations. Moreover, this brat said that the previous owner of the restaurant was cursed by him, so what if the curse was real?

She was the one who was going to open a restaurant to earn money. What if she was really unlucky after being told by this crow's beak?

It was not safe to hold a man in her hands, because she recognized him as the smartest creature in the world. Where she could not see him, he could slip away at any moment.

If she didn't have any guarantees, then she wouldn't even be able to cry if something went wrong.

To be merciful to the enemy was to be cruel to oneself. Moreover, this youth's origin was unknown and he was hostile to them, so he couldn't relax.

The youth was thinking about the meaning of Chen Mu's words when suddenly, an unbearable itchiness came over him. It was a kind of nagging that came from the bones, a little bit of grinding, not being able to grab, not being able to scratch, being unable to scratch. It seemed to be pain, yet not pain, causing one's body to feel weak and exhausted, but it could not be ignored.

Then, the itchiness gradually deepened as he bit his lower lip. He felt as if all the bones in his body had melted without any strength left. It was as if thousands of ants were biting him, causing him to burst out in tears.

He firmly bit his lower lip. He didn't want to admit his defeat to Chen Mu, but that itch, that torture, was simply too torturous. No matter how much he endured, he wouldn't be able to endure it.

The itch that corroded his heart and bones made him want to die, but deep down in his bones, it made him want to die.

And, as time went by, the effect got worse.

The youth could feel that his entire body was drenched in sweat.

After an incense stick of time, as the first wave of medicinal effects passed, he was drenched in sweat as he laid on the ground. His lips had already been bitten through.

Chen Mu stepped forward and asked with a smile, "So, do you believe that it's poison?"

The youth didn't have the strength to speak. He lay on the ground like a dead fish, staring blankly at her.

Chen Mu Yang's lips moved as though he knew that Su Yun did not have the strength to speak, and continued speaking, "This is only the first wave, if you do not follow the rules, you will have to suffer such torture everyday. Of course, without the antidote, it doesn't matter, as long as you endure it for two hours every day."

She smiled and narrowed her eyes, but there was no warmth in them, "It's just that the effect will only last two months. If you don't get the antidote within those two months, you will never experience any pain at all."

Why was there no pain? It was because he was already dead.

He was completely dead, so naturally he didn't feel anything.

The youth's eyes were wide open, filled with fear and trepidation.

After tormenting himself for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he couldn't help but want to die. And every day, he would suffer for two hours. This torment would continue for another two months …

The youth suddenly felt as if his world had collapsed.

He wanted to live on, to stand on flat ground!

The youth regretted it. If he knew that the young girl in front of him was such a troublesome character, he wouldn't have provoked her no matter what.

What damned curse, compared to the young lady before him, it wasn't even one in ten thousand.

He shook his head in fear and spent a lot of effort before he managed to squeeze out two words from between his teeth, "The antidote."

"I do." Chen Mu Mu said with a smile, his expression warm and his eyes cold, "But even if I have the antidote, why should I give it to you? I don't remember what I owe you. If people do not offend me, then I will not offend you. Since you are the one who provoked me, then I will naturally pay the price. "

When the youth heard this, he didn't even want to cry. He threw away everything and only wanted to die.

This was because the second wave of medicinal effects had begun.

That sort of ecstatic and corrosive itch slowly drilled into his bone marrow and fused with his blood, beginning to take effect.

The youth's voice was hoarse. He was so terrified that he couldn't control himself as he shouted, "I agree!"

He didn't have the strength to continue speaking, but he understood that those three words were enough for Chen Mu Mu to understand what he meant.

"You agree?" Chen Mu pursed his lips. "Do you mean that you'll agree to anything I tell you to do?"

The teenager flapped his eyelashes.

"Tell me everything I ask?"

The teenager flapped his eyelashes once again.

Nonsense, he had already been tormented to such a state. If he didn't say anything now, would he just be waiting for death?

Before, he had not felt that the word 'fear of death' had any profound meaning, but now, he understood.

Actually, death wasn't that scary. What he was afraid of was living a life worse than death.

Under the torture of living a life worse than death, he might as well die.

However, he did not want to die, much less wish to die.

If she only wanted to know a few things, only wanted to get something from him, then she would give it all to her.

How could those things, those secrets, compare to his life? It was equivalent to the torment of being bitten by millions of ants.

"Good girl." Chen Mu Mu took out another bottle from his pocket and pulled the cork out in front of the youth. He stuffed a green pill into the youth's mouth and then, under the youth's cunning gaze, he poured the bottle upside down.

"Did you see that? There's not a single pill left in it. "

Chen Mu Mu Mu was afraid that he wasn't disappointed enough, so she shook the empty bottle, "So don't have any ideas or thoughts. Otherwise, no matter how many outrageous things you did after snatching my bag, your poison will still not be cured."

The youth's face was pale, and the itchy feeling from the bone eroding had finally disappeared. However, the cold sweat on his face blended together with his expression, making it look complicated and sad.

Chen Mu Mu Mu acted as though he couldn't see anything as he added, "You guessed right. Only I can cure this poison, and I don't have any reserves to do so."

The youth casted a glance at her, his face ashen.

There was the sound of someone falling on the stairs. Chen Mu didn't even raise his head as he said lightly, "Since you all saw and heard it, then come over and discuss it."

"Chen Mu Mu." Feng Lingxi's face was also somewhat pale as she slowly walked over with a strange expression.

"Little sister." Chen Qingyun followed Feng Ling Xian's steps, his eyes dodging the gaze, and stood obediently like a child who had done something wrong, not daring to raise his head.

Chen Mu rubbed his forehead. Initially, he had wanted to force the young man to confess, but the atmosphere had been destroyed, so he could only push things to this point.

"Feng Lingxi, open his acupoints."

After a moment of silence, Chen Mu Mu Mu's voice broke Feng Ling Xi's train of thoughts. She raised her head and looked at Chen Mu Mu in confusion. Only then did she understand Chen Mu Mu's intention.

"You can go." Chen Mu Mu waved his hands, "I'm tired today, so I'll come back tomorrow to look for me."

The youth had just gotten the medicine, so his entire body was exhausted. Even though his acupoints had been opened by Feng Lingxi, he still did not have the strength to get up. He could only lie stiffly on the ground.

His beautiful eyes stared at Chen Mu Mu for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying, "I'll definitely come looking for you again."

"Waiting for your beautiful voice." Chen Mu Mu Mu waved his hand and magnanimously let him go.

The youth's expression was filled with resentment. He rested for a while, and after gaining strength, he quickly got up from the ground and staggered down the stairs.

Chen Mu Mu Mu stood by the window, watching him disappear into the distance before turning back to face the two behind him.

"What, you suddenly feel that I'm very scary?"

"Nope." Feng Lingxi quickly shook her head, "That person was just provoking you before he angered you. No matter what you do, you won't go overboard. Some people don't give me any warning, but the next time, I'll make you even more angry. You're not wrong."

Chen Qingyun also expressed his opinion: "You're not wrong, under normal circumstances, you wouldn't harm anyone."

But still... You don't believe her, do you?

Chen Mu Mu shook his head, as a pensive look appeared on his face. "Maybe very soon, you all will understand what I'm trying to do."
