I arranged a marriage for you, not made you invincible under a disguise.

Shen Tu Mo paused for a moment, looking at Shen Sixi with some confusion.

Why would he give her the money for the medicine? What's going on?

Shen Sixi walked briskly ahead, her back to him, so she couldn't see the confusion on his face.

She muttered to herself as she calculated the bill, then quickly picked out the medicine she needed. She was quick-witted and had sharp eyesight.

Soon, she received a string of numbers and turned to report it to Shen Tu Mo.

Shen Sixi: "I won't ask for much more from you, this is all I ask for. Don't think it's too much. I haven't even calculated your wages yet. Remember to transfer the money to my card when you get back."

Shen Tu Mo: ...

—A six-digit number, with zeros and whole numbers.

—Not much?

Although he suspected Shen Sixi of having some kind of problem, Shen Tu Mo was not so desperate as to be short of six figures.

He nodded, not taking it seriously.

Only after agreeing did he realize that he shouldn't have paid her the money.

She's not the owner of this medicinal herb garden, and she didn't grow these herbs, so why is she charging money?

And is this really the focus right now?

The key point now is, is it really okay for you to go into someone's herb garden in the middle of the night and pick their herbs without their permission?

By the way, the herb garden was locked when they arrived.

At that time, Shen Sixi stood in front of the tightly closed door and observed the lock for a while. Then, she pulled out a silver needle from somewhere and pried open the lock without saying a word!

It must be said that the silver needles she carried with her were indeed very useful.

Shen Tu Mo took another medicinal herb from Shen Sixi and said quietly, "I should give this money to the owner of the herb garden."

Shen Sixi frowned, about to voice her objection.

In a flash, she understood what Shen Tu Mo was thinking.

When Elder Huang stayed at the hotel with them, Shen Tu Mo was busy. Only after Elder Huang left the hotel did Shen Tu Mo have time to return.

Shen Tu Mo had never met Elder Huang and did not know that she knew him.

In his view, wasn't her behavior tantamount to stealing?

Shen Sixi was both amused and exasperated.

“Actually…” Shen Sixi paused, wanting to explain to Shen Tu Mo.

As she was about to speak, she noticed Shen Tu Mo's expression and suddenly had a thought: she wanted to tease Shen Tu Mo.

“Actually, I have a grudge against the owner of this medicinal herb garden,” Shen Sixi said seriously.

Shen Sixi's acting skills are quite impressive; in a certain small world, she was an actress.

She entered that little world with a playful attitude, and in that world, her outstanding beauty made it impossible for her to even start as an extra. Right from the start, she landed a role in a film by a renowned director, a supporting one with considerable screen time.

Even with guidance from a renowned director, her acting in her first attempt at acting wasn't very good.

Later, Shen Sixi continued to improve her acting skills. With her beautiful face and increasingly mature acting skills, as well as the system and a little bit of luck, she became a top female star in that small world, winning awards left and right.

It is not only a top-tier company in the country, but also holds a prominent position internationally.

But she quickly grew tired of being surrounded by crowds wherever she went, so after completing the main quest in that world, she immediately left the entertainment industry and became a performance teacher at a film academy.

Some of her students became movie stars, some went home to take civil service exams, some spent their lives as extras in Hengdian World Studios, and some became live-streaming e-commerce hosts, selling toilet paper and garbage bags every day at the top of their lungs.

It can only be said that having acting skills is not enough to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry.

Even though she's been away from that little world for many years, Shen Sixi's acting skills are still excellent; she can deceive Shen Tu Mo effortlessly.

Shen Tu Mo looked at her and believed her completely.

Not long ago, he was also wondering if Shen Sixi had a grudge against Old Huang.

Shen Sixi loves money, and she loves spending it even more, so she wouldn't be reluctant to pay such a small amount.

She must have her reasons for doing this.

Shen Tu Mo asked, "What happened?"

Shen Sixi sighed.

"Just after we arrived in Southeast Asia, I accidentally wandered into this medicinal herb garden. After I came in, I saw an old man and I greeted him, but he was very fierce..."

Shen Sixi wasn't exactly lying; it really happened.

She said vaguely, "In short, we became enemies after a while."

"Now that he's not here, it's the perfect time for me to get my revenge."

Shen Tu Mo frowned deeply.

He thought to himself that Shen Sixi must have omitted many key details.

According to Li Qingran, Old Huang was an extremely cruel old man who wished he could skin and tear apart anyone who trespassed into his medicinal garden.

Old Huang must have done more than just berate Shen Sixi; he might have used other methods, such as poisoning her or ambushing her.

If Shen Sixi hadn't been capable of handling things, she might have ended up buried underground as fertilizer, just like everyone else.

Thinking about the potential harm to Shen Sixi, Shen Tu Mo felt an indescribable surge of anger.

Shen Sixi didn't expect Shen Tu Mo to have such imagination.

She ran out of ideas at this point and decided to stop.

She turned around and continued picking herbs.

She thought to herself that she should tell Old Huang. Otherwise, if Old Huang came back and saw that so many things were missing, he might think that a thief had broken in.

Before leaving, she also had to fix the door lock.

Although even if it's unlocked, few people would dare to break into Huang Lao's herb garden, what if a bold person suddenly appears?

She would be heartbroken if any of her herbs were stolen!

In addition, Mr. Huang's lock is too casual. It can be pried open with a single pry. Who can it possibly keep out of?

Shen Sixi was mentally complaining about Old Huang when she suddenly heard Shen Tu Mo say, "You've been wronged."

Shen Sixi: ?

Shen Tu Mo: "I will find him and avenge you."

Shen Sixi: ? ? ?

She looked at Shen Tu Mo with a puzzled expression and surprise.

Shen Tu Mo's expression was cold, and he didn't seem to be joking at all.

Shen Tu Mo was indeed serious and was not joking.

Although he knew Huang Lao's character and that Huang Lao was not someone to be offended, he was not so indifferent as to the fact that Shen Sixi was being bullied by Huang Lao.

No matter what, Shen Sixi is a member of the Shentu family and his wife.

What kind of revenge is it to pick such a small amount? He will definitely make Old Huang pay the price he deserves.

Shen Tu Mo also looked at Shen Sixi and said coldly, "What do you want to do with him? Just name your name."

Shen Sixi blinked, and it took her a long time to recover.

After a long silence, she asked, "Shen Tu Mo, do you know who owns this medicinal herb garden?"

"I know," Shen Tu Mo said, "Elder Huang."

Shen Tu Mo: "Don't worry, no matter how powerful Elder Huang is or how insidious his methods are, the Shen Tu family is not afraid."

In fact, Shen Tu Mo's understanding of Elder Huang was very superficial. The little he knew came entirely from what Li Qingran had told him.

Because he didn't know Huang Lao well enough, Shen Tu Mo wasn't actually confident he could beat him.

Shen Tu Mo never does anything without being sure of success, but this time, he is determined to do it!

He couldn't just stand by and watch Shen Sixi get bullied!

Even if it costs the entire Shentu family, he will seek revenge!

Shen Tu Mo: "Do you want his life? Or do you want to keep him alive and torture him slowly?"

Shen Sixi was startled by Shen Tu Mo's words and coughed.

She quickly said, "Cough cough, no, no, please don't! I was just joking, I have no grudge against Old Huang!"
