I control the world with magic
Chapter 70
You have such a poor alcohol tolerance?
Otherwise, why would a noble lady who is always dignified and steady call herself Susu?
Seeing Sumu staring at her, Murong Mengli's face seemed to be even redder, not knowing whether it was an illusion or not: "You don't like..."
"Yes, I like extraordinary potions, preferably extraordinary potions like [Iron Ambition] that can enhance physical fitness."
Murong Mengli: "......."
"Extraordinary potions are very popular and difficult to buy. I originally planned to use the treasure to pay for this operation. If you insist, Susu, I can send someone to find out the news of extraordinary potions."
"Thank you." Although Sumu is also interested in the treasure, he knows that the most suitable for him is the extraordinary potion, because he only has one month to live. Getting the extraordinary potion that strengthens the body and obtains abilities similar to Yang Dongqing can better prolong his life.
"Susu, I think your bronze law should be related to the spirit. I'm afraid that the physical extraordinary potion is not suitable for you..." She tilted her head slightly and looked at Su Mu. Her slender fingers gently brushed a few strands of hair on her forehead and pinned them behind her ears. The corners of her mouth raised a faint arc, and the simple action was full of endless charm.
"Excuse me, Miss Mengli, your beauty trick is a bit clumsy."
Murong Mengli's hand that was lifting her hair froze. For a moment, it was not right to put it down, nor to continue.
The eyes hidden behind the brown glasses seemed to have some kind of insight into people's hearts. Looking at the stiff Murong Mengli, he said lightly: "It seems that Miss Mengli's predicament is greater than I thought, otherwise I really can't find a reason to explain your behavior."
At this time, Murong Mengli had withdrawn her hand, and the smile on her face slowly faded. Perhaps unwillingly and stubbornly, she asked: "Am I really not feminine?"
"No, Miss Mengli is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in reality."
"I'm not your type?"
"I like young women with a girlish feeling, and young girls with a young woman's feeling. You happen to be the latter."
"Then you..."
"However, I prefer extraordinary potions to women." Su Mu said bluntly.
Murong Mengli was stunned for a long time. She looked at Su Mu with a serious face and couldn't help laughing. This time, the smile seemed to have removed all defenses, with a kind of innocence unique to girls.
"Susu, you are really interesting."
"Thank you for the compliment."
Murong Mengli put away her smile and said seriously: "You are a smart person. I can't control people like you, but I do need an ally like you. Now I can only give you sincerity and promises, if you are willing to continue listening."
"I am all ears." Su Mu smiled lightly.
"I believe you can see that I have nothing except a noble title and a little money. Even the bronze coffin is a new creation. Under the instigation of Han Yu, the employees do not respect me as a noble."
Su Mu nodded and did not interrupt.
"I am an illegitimate daughter." The expression on Murong Mengli's face became less and less, and she told her story like an outsider.
"My mother was once a slave, bought by my father, and then I was born. In fact, I should not have been born because my identity would bring shame to the entire Murong family, but I happened to be born on my father's birthday, and my mother begged me, so I gave birth to me.
After I became an adult, I did not get the support of the family like my brothers and sisters, and I did not have my own business. Instead, I was imprisoned in the manor and was not allowed to go out.
The reason why I got support to establish the bronze coffin this time was because my father was dying. He was a silver third-level extraordinary person. When he was young, he ate too many extraordinary people in order to be promoted. The potion used many taboo methods, which overdrafted his lifespan. Now his only way to survive is to find the Golden Eye, refine it into a golden awakening potion, and then advance to gold.
This has always been his dream, to become a golden strongman to reproduce the glory of his ancestors, and then return to the imperial capital and the center of power.
In order to survive and dream, he has been dizzy and unwilling to let go of any hope, so that all his children can find the Golden Eye. I also got the opportunity at this time. "
Su Mu frowned slightly, not because of the other party's tragic life experience, but because he noticed something wrong.
"Where is Han Yu? He was sent by your father to help you, but why did he go against you everywhere? This seems to run counter to your father's purpose. "
"Han Yu?" Murong Mengli's smile was cold: "Although he belongs to the Murong family, he has actually been bought by my fiancé."
"Fiancé?"
"Yes, you may have heard of his name, Qian Zihao, the richest man in Xingcheng, a richFatty. Although he is rich, he is not a nobleman, and he has always longed for the status of a nobleman. He often wanders in the aristocratic circle, hoping to marry a noble lady.
But the nobles don't look down on nouveau riche like him, and it is impossible for a noble to marry him, except me. "Murong Mengli's eyes revealed a trace of extreme disgust, and she seemed to hate Qian Zihao very much.
"Qian Zihao, who has been hit by obstacles everywhere, recognizes his status and knows that he is a synonym for stupidity and wealth in the eyes of the nobles, so he retreated to my father and spent a lot of money to make my father agree to this marriage. "
Su Mu nodded, expressing his understanding. An unwelcome illegitimate daughter can still be sold at a high price. The head of the family must be willing.
"I roughly understand Miss Mengli, but why does Qian Zihao bribe Han Yu to go against you?"
The hatred in Murong Mengli's eyes became stronger and stronger: "Because my father promised that the children who find the Golden Eye will be established as the heirs of the family!
If I become the heir of the family, I will naturally not marry Qian Zihao. The family will not allow the future heir to marry a commoner, no matter how rich the other party is.
In fact, among all the children, my strength is undoubtedly the weakest. I have neither awakened the talent in the golden bloodline nor have too many assets and manpower. Relatively speaking, I am also the least likely to find the Golden Eye.
But Qian Zihao is a very cautious person. He is unwilling to take any risks. Even if there is a slight chance, he will strangle it in the cradle. "
Su Mu glanced at Murong Mengli, who was full of hatred. At this moment, he completely understood why the other party easily let him invest and even directly exposed himself.
Because she had no choice. After twenty years of suppressed life, she finally saw hope and set up her own company, but was secretly blocked by her fiancé. She had been forced into a desperate situation. If she wanted to survive under the two mountains of family and fiancé, she could only seek external forces to break the situation.
And he was the external force she found.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a strange look in his heart. Perhaps the scene that frightened Han Yu to kneel down before caused some misunderstanding to Murong Mengli, making the other party think that her power was very strong and capable of dealing with the imperial nobles and the richest man in Xingcheng.
This made Su Mu sigh: You are so accurate in judging people!
