Chapter 852: Could That Be an Aphrodisiac Spell?

Chapter 852: Chapter 852: Could That Be an Aphrodisiac Spell?

Rong Junsheng’s words startled Shi Lei and Rong Kexi.

Rong Kexi felt a chill on his back and immediately threw the wallet onto the car seat, his face full of gloom.

"I wondered why she suddenly embroidered a wallet, turns out there wasn’t a peace charm inside at all!"

Shi Lei frowned and at that moment, felt the wallet in her hand was like a hot potato.

She believed in mysticism and had connections with many masters.

At this moment, she also felt that Jiang Li had ill intentions.

"I’ll find a master in a few days to perform a ritual for us, but don’t burn this wallet yet, keep it."

Saying this, she suddenly thought of something, "Rong Ya also took one, right? Go and tell her about it."

Rong Kexi gave a cold snort and immediately crossed her arms in refusal, "Why tell her? She asked for the wallet herself, if she likes it, let her keep it, what does it have to do with us."

Shi Lei said no more, after all, in her eyes, Rong Ya was indeed insignificant.

Were it not for the Old Madam and the Old Master liking her, she’d wish to see her disappear from this family just like Kexi.

In the car behind, Rong Ya opened the two wallets Jiang Li had given her.

She clutched the Red Chalcedony necklace in her hand, then without hesitation, put the necklace around her neck.

Afterward, she handed the other wallet containing the peace charm along with the box Old Madam Gu gave her to her assistant.

"Find some time to set the peace charm into a ring as soon as possible, and remind me to wear it every day."

"Yes, Miss."

...

...

In the Gu Family’s backyard.

Zhao Lang looked at Jiang Li, whose mood seemed to have improved slightly, and slightly furrowed his brows.

The two of them walked shoulder to shoulder in the garden.

The spring breeze brushed their faces, very pleasant.

After a few more steps, Jiang Li smiled.

"Haven’t we already resolved a major concern? Why such a long face?"

Zhao Lang stopped and grabbed her.

"I’m worried about you."

"Worried about what?"

"I might not understand mysticism, but these days I’ve learned a bit." Zhao Lang spoke seriously, "Did you cast a curse on Rong Junsheng?"

Jiang Li turned her head to look at him, "So what if I did?"

"Such curses usually have repercussions for the person who casts them, you told me so yourself." He said, "If you really want to deal with Rong Junsheng, I have many ways to help you, why take such a risk to harm yourself?"

Originally, he thought Jiang Li wanted him to invite Rong Junsheng just to see him or to threaten him with something else.

But when she proposed to give peace charms, he then understood her intention.

If he’d known sooner she’d chosen this extreme method, he would never have agreed.

Jiang Li smiled, "So you think that wallet didn’t have a peace charm inside it?"

Zhao Lang sensed there was more to her words and pulled out the wallet from his pocket to open it.

Inside, the talisman paper and lines were identical to the peace charm Jiang Li had given him before, hardly any difference.

He was stunned for a moment, "So there’s nothing wrong with this talisman."

"Of course there’s nothing wrong, otherwise how could I give it to you and others?" Jiang Li said, "You think I’d be so stupid as to tamper with the talisman directly? Wouldn’t that be an obvious giveaway?"

Zhao Lang’s previously relaxed brows furrowed again, and his grip on her hand slightly tightened.

"So you did tamper with it, didn’t you?"

Jiang Li: "Hmm...."

Zhao Lang took a deep breath.

But Jiang Li "pfft" suddenly laughed out loud.

"Relax, I didn’t tamper with it, I’m joking, I’ve promised before my ancestral master not to do such harmful things in this lifetime."

The stone in Zhao Lang’s heart fell once more.

"As long as you didn’t do it, that’s good."

Jiang Li, however, squinted her eyes, "I just helped someone fulfill a wish."

She had only passed on what Xu Ning had given her to Rong Ya.

The Red Chalcedony was not real Red Chalcedony, but Xu Ning’s heart blood and hair condensed into it.

It carried all of Xu Ning’s resentment and curses.

And once placed near Rong Junsheng, it would relentlessly haunt and torment him, gradually depleting his entire fortune.

However, the peace charm she gave could neutralize this evil energy.

If Rong Junsheng’s family kept it well, they would be safe and sound.

If they threw away the peace charm...

What consequences would follow, she couldn’t say.

Evil begets evil, she hadn’t framed anyone, she just let all debts be settled.

In the process, she even saved two lost women.

She believed the ancestral master’s spirit in heaven wouldn’t blame her.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lang was stunned and then smiled helplessly.

"You are indeed the clever and resourceful Master Jiang, did you also tamper with the talisman you gave me before?"

Jiang Li slightly smiled, "You guess."

Zhao Lang: ?

He looked up at the blue sky, "Then did you put an aphrodisiac spell in it? Otherwise—"

Jiang Li: "...."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Li pinched his hand hard.

"I should have put a Silence Spell on you instead."

The servants walking behind saw the two of them bickering and felt a bit embarrassed to approach.

"Miss Jiang..."

She called softly, and only then did Jiang Li hear and turn around.

"Were you calling me?"

The servant came forward, nodded, and smiled, "Yes, Miss Jiang, the Old Madam is asking for you."

Jiang Li was a bit surprised, "The Old Madam?"

"Yes, she’s waiting for you in the Flower House now."

Jiang Li glanced at Zhao Lang, nodded, "Alright, lead the way."

Then she stepped forward.

Seeing this, Zhao Lang also lifted his foot to follow her.

The servant, however, hesitantly spoke, "The Old Madam specifically instructed that the young master should not follow."

Zhao Lang: ?

"Did Grandma really say that?"

The servant nodded.

Zhao Lang: "....."

Was he still their real grandson?

"Alright then, I’ll wait here for you." Zhao Lang looked at Jiang Li, "Come find me when you want to go home, I’ll take you back."

"Yes, okay."

Jiang Li followed the little maid to the Flower House she mentioned.

It was a quaint room, with half of the roof covered in colored tiles, reflecting the sunlight into colorful glows.

Before entering, a fresh floral scent greeted her.

At the servant’s indication, Jiang Li pushed the door open and went inside.

Old Madam Gu stood in front of the flower rack, trimming the flower branches with the silver scissors in her hand.

She had changed into a dark yellow outfit, which brought out a kindly look, compared to the solemn seriousness she had shown at the dinner table.

Seeing Jiang Li come in, she surprisingly dropped her previous cold and rejecting demeanor, smiling and waving her over.

"Miss Jiang, come here."

Jiang Li walked over.

The Old Madam naturally took her hand, looked at the flower rack in front of them, and pointed to one of the potted plants, "This plant was given to me by a friend, she said it’s quite rare, but no matter what methods I’ve tried, it hasn’t shown any signs of blooming for half a year."
