Chapter 122 They both think each other is a good actor
With a look of guilt on his face, he said, "There is dirt on your face. Let me wipe it off for you."
Pei Mochen knew that she was seeking revenge for the strangulation a few days ago, but he didn't blame her at all.
"Brother Chen, I have been teaching you to ride a horse for so long on the grassland, but you haven't made any progress at all."
Mu Wanyan looked at him with a hint of sneer: "Brother Chen, don't tell others that your horse riding master is Luo Luo when you are outside. I feel ashamed."
Pei Mochen smiled dotingly: "Yanyan acted really well. If she were to go to the opera house, Yanyan would definitely be the protagonist."
He was just praising her, without any sarcasm at all.
However, from Mu Wanyan's perspective, she felt that these words were particularly harsh.
He immediately replied, "Yan Yan is not as good as Brother Chen in acting. You can turn white into black and truth into lies."
"He was such a lifesaver, but you said he was acting. I'm afraid there are not many people like Brother Chen in this world--" Fool.
Pei Mochen was even happier when he heard that. He smoothed her hair and said, "Very good. Yanyan is deeply immersed in the role and can ease my worries."
He said gently: "Yan Yan, don't worry. If Luo Luo really comes back, I will not treat you unfairly."
Mu Wanyan rolled her eyes and bowed to him, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Pei Mochen smiled knowingly. His Yanyan was jealous again.

Around lunch time, Mu Wanyan rushed back to the palace, while Pei Mochen used the excuse that he had something urgent to do and hurried to a nearby clinic.
He now had a high fever and was being tossed about by the fierce horse. He was afraid that he would faint before reaching the palace.
The doctor took Pei Mochen's pulse, gave him acupuncture, and prescribed some herbal medicine before his high fever was brought down.
"Young Master has had a high fever these past few days. You must not take any more tonics or overwork yourself."
"I see that you just came from the horse farm. It is inappropriate for you to ride a horse when you are sick."
Pei Mochen glared at Yun Yin who was standing beside him, then thanked the doctor, "Thank you, doctor. However, I have no choice."
"A wife is ignorant and her followers are blind!"
Doctor: "Sir, you should make your own decisions about your own health."
Pei Mochen sighed: "My master's body and my servant's life are beyond my control."
The doctor exchanged a few more words with Pei Mochen before leaving to take care of other things.
Pei Mochen thanked him and asked Yunyin to pay twice the consultation fee.
When he was about to leave the clinic, he suddenly heard someone in the cubicle discussing their wives at home.
He had no intention of eavesdropping, but the topic the two were talking about was indeed fascinating, so Pei Mochen stopped and listened for a while.
A voice said, "I know she doesn't have me in her heart, and I know she married me for our family's property, but I just like her personality. Even if she does nothing and just stands at home, I'm happy."
Another voice said unconvincedly: "Since it's for profit, they only love your money. Then why would Brother Wei open his heart to that kind of woman?"
At this time, the man named Brother Wei spoke again: "Brother Li, you don't understand. Since she has married me, she is my family. As a husband, I treat my wife well, love her, and protect her. That is the natural thing to do."
Before Brother Li could answer, Pei Mochen couldn't help it any longer. He knocked on the door gently and joined in the conversation.
He bowed to the man called Brother Wei and said, "I just passed by and overheard the conversation between the two gentlemen. I was deeply inspired. May I ask you a question or two?"
Brother Wei saw Pei Mochen's tall and handsome figure, wearing a Shu brocade dress, every inch of the fabric revealed its high value, and a piece of black jade with excellent water head on his waist. He knew that this man was either rich or noble.
Looking behind Pei Mochen, there was a stern follower following closely. He was holding a long sword, his posture was as straight as a pine tree, his eyes were as sharp as torches, and he exuded a sharp aura that could not be ignored.
Brother Wei and Brother Li looked at each other and knew at once that they had met a noble person today.
Regardless of the silver needles still inserted on their heads and brows, they quickly stood up and bowed to Pei Mochen and Yun Yin.
"Sir, there's no need to be so polite. If you have any questions, just ask and we can discuss it together."
Pei Mochen paused, thought for a moment, and said:
"Sir, may I ask, if your wife loves you so much that she is willing to sacrifice her life for you?"
"But she is actually a spy for your company. She married you just to find out the secrets of your company. Brother Wei, if you marry such a wife, what would you do?"
