On the other side.
After they got back, Wei Wushuang and Wei Xueying went to the living room.
Wei Yongchang, First Madam, and Third Madam were all there. Chu Zhengyang was also waiting in the living room.
Chu Zhengyang sighed in disappointment when he saw that no one was following the two sisters.
“Looks like Luoluo really doesn’t want to see me again.”
With that, his shoulders slumped in defeat.
However, Third Madam saw the slap mark on Wei Wushuang’s face at a glance and immediately raised her voice to ask, “Wushuang, what’s wrong with your face?”
Wei Wushuang was furious to begin with. When she heard her mother’s question, she immediately exaggerated what had happened.
“What? That wretched girl used sorcery?”
When Third Madam heard this, her face turned ashen.
Wei Xueying even interjected, “Mommy, Luoluo said that she learned a few moves from a mage in the US.”
“You believe that? Do you think a mage’s magic can be learned so easily? I think she must be with someone who knows sorcery… Maybe that man is that kind of person.”
At this point, her voice became even more shrill. “Ha! We treated her as one of our own and wanted her to come back to stay. But not only did she not appreciate our kindness, she even used evil magic to hit people.”
“Third Sister-in-law, Luoluo wasn’t that kind of person in the past.” Chu Zhengyang still defended her.
Third Madam’s voice became even sharper. “You’re talking about the past, too. People change. Especially after the scar on that girl’s forehead has healed, I’ve been feeling that she wasn’t a good person… Now, look what happened. Not only did she leave with a man of unknown origin, but she’s even refusing to see you, who had raised her for so many years.”
These words made Chu Zhengyang cough in anger.
First Madam tried to calm him down. “Zhengyang, you’ve been discharged for only a few days. The doctor told you not to get too worked up. Don’t be mad.”
Chu Zhengyang raised his hand to touch his face. He wanted to wipe the tears from his eyes, but tears covered his face instead. He said bitterly, “I’m the one who has let down Yichen and Xiao Shao. I didn’t teach their daughter well.”
“Alright, what’s the use of talking about this now!” Wei Yongchang was a little impatient. His tone immediately became stern. “It’s obvious that Luoluo was tricked by that man. Now, we should find a way to bring her back from that man’s side.”
Third Madam’s expression turned ugly. “How? That man definitely knows sorcery… Have you not realized that when Chu Luo came to our house in the past, she didn’t seem to have become a different person like she did this time? That man might have used sorcery to turn her into this state.”
“What should we do, then?” First Madam was a little worried. “What if that man uses Luoluo to deal with the Wei family?”
These words made everyone fall silent.
After a while, Wei Yongchang called out to the door, “Butler.”
The butler walked in quickly. “Master.”
“Go and invite Master Qingping back immediately.”
“Yes, Master.”
The butler turned around and left.
When the people in the living room heard that they were going to invite Master Qingping, they heaved a sigh of relief.
Master Qingping was a very powerful expert. Whenever strange or evil spirits appeared in the houses of wealthy and powerful families like theirs, they would invite Master Qingping back to help drive them away.
Third Madam immediately beamed. “That’s great. As long as we can get Master Qingping back, I don’t believe we can’t deal with that man who knows sorcery.”
“And Chu Luo.” Wei Wushuang immediately added, “She must have learned some sorcery from that man to have hit me through the air.”
In her heart, she thought fiercely: ‘As long as I get rid of that man and get Master to remove the sorcery that you’ve learned, I’ll teach you a lesson, you wretched woman!’
Third Madam was also furious to see that her daughter had actually been beaten up. Based on her character, she would definitely return the favor.
So she said, “After we invite Master Qingping over, why don’t we find an excuse to trick Chu Luo back and remove the evil magic on her? Maybe she’ll become as obedient as before.
“Then, I can teach that wretched girl a lesson for hitting my precious daughter.”
“Mommy is right. Maybe Chu Luo was bewitched by that man. After the evil magic on her is removed, she will be obedient.”
The others thought about it and felt that this was a good idea.
Wei Yongchang said to Chu Zhengyang, “You know Luoluo better than us. You know what can lure her back. You can handle this matter.”
Chu Zhengyang opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn’t say anything and only nodded.
…
On the other side.
Chu Luo kept writing down the formulas and only went to wash up and rest at 11:30 PM.
However, not long after she fell asleep, she heard a soft knock on the door.
She knew who it was. Just as she was considering pretending not to hear, the knocking stopped.
Chu Luo curled her lips and thought, ‘You came to knock on my room in the middle of the night. I can tell that you have ill intentions.’
After a long period of silence, Chu Luo prepared to sleep.
Just then, there was movement by the window.
Chu Luo abruptly opened her eyes and stared at the window.
She was wondering if the window was closed tightly tonight. Just then, the window was pushed open.
Chu Luo abruptly got off the bed and flashed to a corner.
A tall and agile figure rolled in from the window at the same time.
After Li Yan entered, he went straight to the bed to lie down without looking for anyone, as if he knew she wasn’t on the bed.
Chu Luo: “…”
Amid the rustling of the blankets, Li Yan’s deep voice could be heard. “If you want to keep standing, I’ll sleep.”
A ball of anger appeared in Chu Luo’s eyes. She quickly walked to the bed and pointed at him angrily. “Big baddie! Get up.”
Li Yan: “I’m sleepy.”
“Then go back to your own room and sleep.”
“As your man, I can’t sleep unless I warm your bed.”
“…”
This man was too shameless!
Chu Luo glared at him. Then, she turned around and walked out of the door.
Li Yan immediately sensed her thoughts. He lifted the blanket and quickly got out of bed to pounce on her.
Chu Luo sensed his approach and quickly dodged. At the same time, she attacked.
“Er…”
Li Yan didn’t dodge and was slapped.
Seeing him take a few steps back, Chu Luo immediately restrained her strength and said angrily, “Are you a pig? Why didn’t you dodge?”
“The furniture in this room is all your favorite. It’s very difficult to buy. If we fight, the furniture inside will suffer… Cough, cough…”
Li Yan coughed several times.
Chu Luo’s heart ached a little. She quickly turned on the lights and walked over.
Li Yan was wearing pajamas. Chu Luo walked over and said, “Show me where you were hit.”
Li Yan looked down at the little thing who was worried about him. He controlled the curve of his lips and unbuttoned his shirt to reveal his wheat-colored skin and the palm mark on it.
Actually, as long as he used his internal energy to block it, it wouldn’t be too serious. But to make the little thing’s heart ache, it was worth it to be slapped.
Chu Luo looked at the palm mark on his face and quickly took a pill for him to take.
Li Yan didn’t want water this time. After swallowing, he hugged her waist tightly.
“Luoluo, my chest hurts.”
“Then lie down.”
“It will hurt even more if I don’t hug you to sleep.”
“…”
Li Yan was already standing by the bed. He grabbed her waist tightly and the two of them fell.
The moment Chu Luo struggled, he sucked in a cold breath.
Chu Luo could only lie on top of him and stop moving.
Satisfied, Li Yan pulled the blanket over them.
At the same time, he threatened in a low voice by her ear, “Don’t move. If you move again, I’ll be impulsive.”
“…”
After a while.
“Mm… you baddie!”
“This is just a goodnight kiss.”
…
Chu Luo didn’t know when she fell asleep. When she opened her eyes, it was already morning and Li Yan was already awake.
Chu Luo looked up and saw his chin.
Chu Luo, who was used to seeing his clean chin, was suddenly curious when she saw the stubble. She subconsciously reached out to touch it.
It was prickly and itchy. And she realized that even with the stubble on his chin, his handsomeness wasn’t diminished at all.
Just as she was about to retract her hand, a large hand quickly grabbed it.
“Ah!”
Chu Luo called out.
Li Yan actually ground his teeth on the back of her hand.
Chu Luo quickly retracted her hand, wanting to hide it under the blanket.
This movement froze her.
Li Yan suddenly panted and quickly hugged her waist. He buried his head in her shoulder and said in a low voice, “If you move again, I won’t be polite to you.”
“Big baddie!” Chu Luo could feel his urge and didn’t dare to move. She was so anxious that her eyes turned red. “Let go of me.”
Li Yan looked up at her and saw panic flash across her eyes. He quickly raised his hand and placed it on her back to comfort her.
After her body relaxed, he whispered into her ear, “Didn’t you know about men and women? Why are you afraid when you’re with me?”
“I… I’m not afraid!” Chu Luo refused to admit it.
“Haha…” Li Yan chuckled and quickly attacked.
Chu Luo’s body tensed up. “You, you, you… how dare you!”
Li Yan retracted his hand. “Didn’t you say you’re not afraid?”
Chu Luo stopped talking. As the High Priestess, she knew everything about the world, but she didn’t know how to go about doing that thing that a man and a woman did. No one told her either.
Li Yan calmed himself down before letting go of her.
Chu Luo quickly got up, took her clothes, and ran to the bathroom.
Li Yan lay in bed and muttered, “Little thing, what was your identity in the past?”
