"What This vase is an antique" I leaned in curiously.

Mu Wanchen just weighed it, how did he say I have good taste

"Something's off about the weight of this, and the feel of it. It feels top-heavy." He ran his fingers along the neck of the bottle and said to me, "Didn't you say that as soon as we touched the vanity, it tipped over"

I nodded.

Mu Wanchen picked up the bottle and shook it, smiling. "There's something in here."

"No way, I've been holding this for ages and I haven't felt anything... Is there water or stones inside There's no way I wouldn't feel that, right"

"If you're so capable, then what do you need me for" Mu Wanchen chuckled, placing the bottle on the floor.

As I was about to inquire about the reason, a cold gust of wind suddenly brushed past my cheek, followed by a clear "shattering" sound.

The vase on the ground was cut in half by Mu Wanchen's sword, still standing from beginning to end, as if it were slicing a watermelon.

The broken bottle had a partition in the middle, with a small hole in the center of it. At the bottom of the bottle was a thin layer of fine powder.

You can't tell just by looking at it casually.

Mu Wanchen put on the gloves he used to handle poisons and reached out, gently twirling them. The powder was almost instantly dissolved upon contact, finer than dust.

"...The butterfly's scales must have fallen here." He frowned slightly.

“These butterflies fluttering on the vase, it's obvious someone deliberately made them shake their wings to shed their scales. The useless ones are buried as fertilizer... if they were burned, it would probably attract attention... This basically suggests that someone is plotting against your sister.”

My temples throbbed with a pounding sensation... Could this be the work of my senior sister She's vanished, leaving no trace. Who is she doing this for

"So, do these powders affect our health I feel like my sister's a little out of it..." That's what worries me the most.

Mu Wanchen collected the powder in a small bamboo tube and said to me, "You observe more. Now that the bottle is taken away, the influence should be broken. I'll take the bottle and powder to Lian Long to have a look."

"Alright, then go now. I'm really worried..." I urged him.

"Okay." He nodded. "Then you stay here and don't run around, and have your family members keep a close eye on you too."

My family...besides the fourth senior brother who just returned from abroad, everyone else is always moving around inside the house. How can you tell Anyone coming into the courtyard is perfectly normal.

Mu Wanchen was about to leave immediately, then paused and turned back to me, saying: "It's also possible that your sister was tampered with without her knowledge. You could try asking around and finding out the origin of this vase."

Isn't this easy Generally, I don't bother explaining things, and with my family, I'm even more fearless.

Mu Wanchen took the broken bottle away, and I immediately rushed around to find my sister.

"Little junior sister!" The fourth senior brother, just back home, stretched lazily from his room and greeted me from afar.

He complained of jet lag as soon as he returned home, sleeping day and night.

I think he wanted to avoid being questioned by his family, so he made an excuse to get away. After half a day passed and the family's enthusiasm had died down, he appeared with a smile on his face.

My fourth senior brother is also a peculiar person. All my senior brothers are very hard-working and dedicated to their studies. The most outstanding one, of course, is the eldest brother, followed by Qiu Senior Brother. The seventh brother mainly deals with business and trade, and the ninth brother hasn't graduated yet.

But this fourth senior brother was the most cunning one from childhood to adulthood. He was very intelligent, while others had to work hard ten times, he only needed to work hard five times.

And he's not the type who dives deep into studies like a scholar. He's more of a... how should I say, jack-of-all-trades, knows a little bit about everything kind of guy.

He also has a somewhat quirky and enigmatic personality.

Junior brother doesn't like to meddle with him. In Junior brother's words: he's a prodigy, just leave him alone and let him grow freely.

Actually, your senior brother is a little younger than him!

Prodigy, huh... Spent a few years in the US and gained some weight!

My eyes fell on his little belly.

The fourth senior brother, who was stretching, instantly reacted and immediately covered his little belly with a smile and said: "What's the matter, are you envious of my plump and round body"

I scoffed and turned my head.

"Tsk tsk, little junior sister, you're not hugging me anymore!"

"Who's on your side! You ran to a capitalist country to be brainwashed, you haven't been home in years. I think you've been corrupted by the bourgeoisie's sugar-coated bullets!"

He walked up to me and said with confidence, "How could I be corrupted! Look at me, I immediately invited my 'parents' to the graduation ceremony, showing them utmost respect. How could I have forgotten my roots!"

“....Not that there's some trouble, asking your senior brother to handle it Is it another rich man or woman’s karmic entanglement” I rolled my eyes.

Fourth Senior Brother reached out and patted my head: "tsk tsk, Little Junior Sister is so angry, isn't it because no one has helped you with your homework in these years"

Well, it's not that simple!

When I was doing homework before, it was so convenient. I just took my textbook to the fourth senior brother's room and he would teach me how to write it. Whether he got annoyed, didn't have time, or felt sorry for me because there was too much homework, he would guide me while helping me write it himself.

But during the three most homework-heavy years of high school, he was gone.

"If you were here, I might even be able to get into Tsinghua, Peking University, Fudan, or Jiao Tong…" I joked complainingly.

The fourth senior brother raised an eyebrow: “Impossible.”

"...."

"Haha, I didn't say you couldn't pass the exam, but... Your brother wouldn't let you leave home thousands of miles away. Give up that idea." He laughed heartily.

Big brother...ah.

Whenever I think about him and my sister, I feel a bit helpless.

I think the relationship between two people shouldn't be interfered with by outsiders, but the problem is that both of them are very dear to me. I don't want to interfere, nor do I want to see them go their separate ways.

So contradictory.

"What's wrong I heard you got a boyfriend and even eloped, didn't you And now it's too late to change your mind, right"

"What's the meaning of 'private engagement' Father and Senior Brother have already agreed!" I jumped up.

"Alright, alright, don't get so startled. Be careful of your health, you can't afford to mess with me." The fourth senior brother put on a defeated look.

Fourth senior brother isn't actually fat, he just looks a bit rounder than before. It's probably because of all the high-calorie food in foreign countries.

He's a little chubby, but he looks much kinder when he smiles.

"Where are you rushing off to You don't even act like a pregnant woman."

"I'm looking for my sister."

"Little sister Yue" The fourth senior brother tilted his head and thought for a moment: "Right now, it should be the school exam period Aren't you going to take the exams"

What kind of exam is this, I suspect that Junior Brother Jun might have made some arrangements for me, otherwise, with my high absentee rate, I would probably be expelled.

My sister went to take the exam and hasn't come back yet, so I just had to wait patiently for a while.

Because the classrooms are limited, the university's exam periods are staggered. My sister came back early just to catch an exam this afternoon.

I was anxious to find out about the vase as soon as possible, so I made an excuse to go for a stroll with my fourth senior brother and drove to school.

It's better to arrive at the right time than early. As soon as my car drove into the school parking lot, I saw my older sister walking out of the teaching building with a book in her hand, reaching into her bag for her car keys. is locked up... If we don't get to the hospital soon, things could get really bad..." he frowned and said."The hospital's no use, better leave it to the professionals." I turned my head to look at Mu...
