The Wife of the Wealthy Family Is Fierce and Cute

Chapter 103: Master Li: I Will Use You to Repay the Debt

Chu Luo didn’t expect Li Yan to not dodge. Seeing his pained expression after being poisoned by her, the anger in her heart finally subsided a little.

She thought for a moment before saying, “It’s not a powerful drug. It only makes your heart ache for a while.”

“Neutralize it.”

“No.”

Li Yan narrowed his eyes but his tone was calm. “I have an international project worth tens of billions to sign soon. If you don’t neutralize it for me, then help me sign the contract.”

“…”

Chu Luo suddenly thought of a popular word on the Internet—scam.

She felt that Li Yan was scamming her.

Unexpectedly, Li Yan wasn’t finished. “I can’t do anything after being drugged. I can only have you serve me.”

“Dream on!” Chu Luo widened her eyes and glared at him.

“What are you doing here?”

Li Yan pretended not to see her anger and asked her that question again.

“I came with Wei Xueying. She wanted to watch Ci Jing film.”

“Who is Ci Jing?”

“I heard that he’s an incredible celebrity.” At this point, Chu Luo suddenly thought of the person she had seen in the bamboo forest. She snorted coldly and said, “Indeed, rumors can’t be trusted.”

When Li Yan heard this, the cold air he’d wanted to release disappeared. He clutched his chest and coughed several times.

Chu Luo looked up at him.

Li Yan raised his wrist to look at the time and said casually, “I have ten minutes. This big project is a collaboration with the higher-ups in the US. You have to think carefully. If the big project worth tens of billions goes up in smoke, not only will I suffer a huge loss, but they might even get angry. When the time comes, I’ll use you to repay the debt.”

“…”

Chu Luo seriously considered how big the amount was.

Li Yan looked at her and tried his best to sound gentle. “Are you going back to Ocean City soon? I can send you off… and also go out to practice.”

It was a waste not to use a free chauffeur. Chu Luo rummaged through the bag and found a bottle of pills. She opened the bottle, poured out a pill, and handed it to him.

Li Yan took the pill from her hand and swallowed it. After half a minute, he finally didn’t feel the pain in his heart anymore. He gestured to her. “Push me out.”

“I…”

“It’s just you and me here. Call my bodyguards over if you don’t want to push me.”

Chu Luo glanced at him and turned to walk out.

She obviously chose to call his bodyguards for him.

Li Yan watched her leave with a faint smile.

He realized that he was becoming fonder of teasing her.

When Chu Luo walked out of the film studio, it was already more than half an hour later.

Wei Xueying’s two bodyguards were obviously getting impatient, but when Chu Luo walked over, they immediately restrained their impatience.

“Miss Chu, you’re out.”

Chu Luo nodded at him.

The two bodyguards brought her to the car.

After Chu Luo got into the car, she said to the bodyguard, “Let’s go to the old city district.”

“Erm…”

The bodyguard was in a difficult position. “Miss Chu, Fourth Miss told us to bring you back to the Wei residence before she left. Please don’t make things difficult for us.”

Chu Luo glanced at the two of them but didn’t insist. She took out her phone and started playing.

She didn’t log in to the game but opened the webpage.

Unexpectedly, the headlines on the web page were all about the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ empire finals.

The topic that was mentioned the most was actually [Bai Ling]’s identity.

Many people thought that [Bai Ling] was one of the top ten players in the world running a smurf account, and some guessed that she was an expert in gaming. Only a small portion of people was guessing her gender.

Chu Luo looked at the post that guessed her gender. The title of the post was: “Doesn’t anyone think that [Bai Ling] might be a girl?”

The replies after that:

“OP, do you have a screw loose in your brain? Many men can’t even play ‘Battle of Lightyears,’ let alone women.”

“I agree with the person above. Ignoring everything else, just the female players that we know who are of higher levels had either thrown in money or their men had helped them level up. Saying that [Bai Ling] is a female player is simply the biggest joke in the world.”

“Agreed+1”

“+2”

…

It wasn’t until the thread was about to be pulled down that a different voice sounded.

“In the final round of the World Championship, ‘Battle of Lightyears’ will release the official poster of real-life players. As for whether or not [Bai Ling] is a female player, everyone will know when ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ enters the world finals.”

Chu Luo left after reading this comment.

She didn’t care what others thought.

When the car arrived at the Wei family villa, it was almost dinner time.

Chu Luo walked towards her room from the side of the villa.

She had just walked to the backyard when she saw Wei Guangnian practicing walking with a walking stick with Wei Zhicheng’s help.

Speaking of which, Wei Guangnian’s leg had been severely amputated at that time, and a prosthetic limb had been installed now.

Wei Guangnian was obviously not used to wearing prosthetic limbs. When he walked, he looked like a two-year-old child who was staggering in hope.

His temper was already explosive to begin with. After taking a few steps, he was so angry that he threw his walking stick away.

“F*ck, one isn’t a man if they don’t take revenge for this. If Li Yan dares to fall into my hands one day, I’ll make him wish he was dead!”

“Don’t worry, we definitely won’t have to wait for too long.” Wei Zhicheng also had a hateful expression at the mention of Li Yan. “Practice for a while more. This way, you can get used to the prosthetic leg faster.”

After saying that, he turned around to call a servant over to pick up the walking stick Wei Guangnian had thrown away. He happened to see Chu Luo and called out to her, “Luoluo.”

Chu Luo stopped and looked at the two of them.

Wei Guangnian and Wei Zhicheng exclaimed in their hearts that she was really beautiful, but they didn’t show it on their faces.

Wei Zhicheng said, “Come and help Guangnian pick up his walking stick.”

Chu Luo glanced at the two of them, then walked over to pick up the walking stick and handed it to Wei Guangnian.

Wei Guangnian looked at Chu Luo’s fair hand and thought, ‘Since this person isn’t my aunt’s child, then she doesn’t have any blood relations with my family at all. In that case, I shouldn’t let benefits fall into the hands of others. It might not be a bad idea for me to court her.’

At the thought of this, he deliberately grabbed Chu Luo’s hand while receiving the walking stick.

Chu Luo avoided Wei Guangnian’s hand just before it covered hers. As the walking stick fell, she used her other hand to catch it. After Wei Guangnian took it, she turned around and left.

Chu Luo didn’t continue walking when she entered the door. Instead, she stopped there.

Sure enough, Wei Guangnian and Wei Zhicheng’s conversation could be heard.

Wei Zhicheng said, “You scared Luoluo just now. Do you have designs on her?”

“What do you mean by have designs on her? She’s not Aunt’s biological daughter. We’re both unmarried. It’s normal for me to like her.”

After Wei Guangnian finished answering, he deliberately asked, “I don’t believe you’re not mesmerized by her beautiful face.”

“You don’t say.”

Wei Zhicheng said, “In the past, I thought that Luoluo was Aunt’s biological daughter. I never paid much attention to her. This time, she came as if she was a different person. If I didn’t know that she was still her, I wouldn’t believe that that skinny child who kept her head down and looked gloomy all day long would grow up to be so beautiful.”

“Isn’t this proof of the saying that ‘girls change when they grow up’? Think about it, a girl like her definitely hasn’t done anything with any man. If I succeed in wooing her, I’ll be her first man. Just the thought of it is exciting.”

At this point, the two of them laughed ambiguously.

Chu Luo’s face darkened.

Very good. It looked like these two could be dealt with now.

During dinner, everyone was present except for Wei Wei and Chu Ting.

Chu Zhengyang looked worried and couldn’t eat. The others were also silent.

Only Wei Guangnian glanced at Chu Luo from time to time. At this moment, he even picked up a piece of food and said to Chu Luo, “Luoluo, you’re still growing. Eat more.”

Wei Xueying was between the two of them. Wei Guangnian reached out to put the food into Chu Luo’s bowl.

Chu Luo looked at the piece of food and blocked it with her hand. She said, “I don’t like it.”

With that, she took the bowl away.

Wei Guangnian didn’t expect Chu Luo to be so disrespectful to him. However, he liked Chu Luo very much now, so he didn’t mind and retracted his hand.

However, he didn’t know that after his chopsticks reached over and Chu Luo blocked them with her hand, he would be destined to suffer tonight.

Other than Wei Zhicheng, no one else noticed their interaction.

Chu Zhengyang put down his chopsticks after eating a few mouthfuls. He stood up and said to everyone, “I’m already full. You guys can eat slowly. I’ll go and see Xiao Wei and Tingting first.”

With that, he turned to leave.

Wei Yongchang stopped him. “Zhiyang, come to my study room later. I have something to tell you.”

Chu Zhengyang stopped in his tracks and seemed to have guessed something. He nodded at him and walked back.

After dinner, Chu Luo returned to her room.

Li Yan had said that he would send her back to Ocean City, so she didn’t have to prepare anything else.

That night, Wei Guangnian’s wretched scream came from the villa. That pitiful sound could make one’s scalp numb.

This scream immediately startled everyone in the villa.

Chu Luo listened to the hurried footsteps outside the door. After a while, she walked over and opened the door a crack.

Indeed, she heard two servants whispering as they quickly walked over.

“The skin where Third Young Master’s skin comes into contact with the prosthetic limbs has all festered. It looks terrifying.”

“The doctor said that Third Young Master’s skin might be allergic. When I went in to deliver the water just now, I smelled rotten flesh. I feel that it’s not an allergy at all…”

“Then what is it?”

“Shh! Someone’s here. Stop talking.”

That night, the Wei family sent Wei Guangnian to the hospital. It seemed like Wei Guangnian would be staying at the hospital for a long time.

The next day, at dawn, there was a light knock on the window in Chu Luo’s room.

She guessed who it was and quickly got off the bed to open the window. Sure enough, she saw Li Yan standing there with a mask on.

“You…”

“Change your clothes and leave immediately.”

Chu Luo nodded, closed the window, and pulled the curtains before going to change and wash up.

When she went out, Li Yan wasn’t in the backyard. Chu Luo walked straight to the back door.
