After Qin Ming carried Anya over, he carefully placed her on the sofa before standing up and saying, âShe has morning sickness.â
Chu Luo smiled faintly at Anya, who had been showing off to her a few days ago.
The moment Anya met Chu Luoâs gaze, her face fell as she complained to her, âChu, help⦠Iâm going to be tortured to death by this detestable baby.â
Chu Luo raised her hand to touch her wrist and said, âYou wonât die. This is normal morning sickness.â
âBut I didnât feel anything previously.â
âEvery pregnant woman experiences morning sickness at different times.â
When Anya heard this, she felt like she had nothing to live for.
Qin Ming asked her with a straight face, âDo you want me to send you back to our villa to rest?â
Along the way, although Qin Ming hadnât spoken much, he had been taking care of her meticulously. Anya only glared at him angrily. âNo. Chu and I havenât seen each other for a long time. We need to have a girlâs talk.â
Qin Ming looked at Chu Luo.
Chu Luo assured him, âIâll take good care of her.â
Qin Ming turned around and left.
Chu Luo asked the butler to get some sour fruits.
Anya felt much better after eating it. She pulled Chu Luo and asked expectantly, âChu, can you develop some medicine to suppress morning sickness for me?â
âYes.â Chu Luo nodded. âThatâs not difficult.â
Anya heaved a sigh of relief.
She leaned back in her chair and said with a bitter expression. âIâve been suffering from morning sickness since the night of my wedding.â
âItâs all because you were too tired and excited.â Chu Luo was very certain.
Anya smiled sweetly. âItâs my wedding. Of course I was excited. I was going to hold a party to celebrate that night, but this naughty baby ruined all my plans.â
Chu Luo knew that Americans liked to hold parties when they got married, so she didnât say anything.
Anya held her face in her hands and said, âFrom the moment I vomited, I sensed how much Blockhead cared about us. You have no idea. When I was feeling terrible, I finally saw anxiety and helplessness on his expressionless face.â
Chu Luo couldnât imagine the helplessness on Qin Mingâs face.
However, she still asked, âSince your morning sickness makes you feel so awful, could you stand traveling on a plane?â
âIcouldnât stand it. Luckily, my father sent us a private plane. Otherwise, I would definitely have felt even worse.â
Chu Luo looked at her sympathetically.
Anya felt much better after eating the sour fruit just now, so she put the plate aside and ate one after another.
Chu Luo reminded her, âAlthough the sour fruit can suppress morning sickness, you canât eat too much. Be careful that your teeth canât stand it.â
âGot it,â In spite of that, Anya didnât stop eating.
Chu Luo asked the butler to bring over a pen and a notebook. She quickly wrote down some herbsâ names and tore off a page to hand to the butler.
âGet someone to go to Imperial Sky Park and ask Grandpa Hu for these herbs. Tell him that theyâre for pregnant women. If he has time, itâs better if he can help me brew the herbs.â
âOkay, Miss Chu.â The butler took it and left.
Anya regained her strength and sat up to tell Chu Luo about their wedding day.
âChu, you have no idea. Blockhead was so handsome on our wedding day.â
She even took out her phone to show Chu Luo the video she had asked someone to record.
Chu Luo glanced at it. After dressing up, Qin Ming was indeed very handsome, exuding tough guy vibes.
Anya said, âWhen the priest asked his family and friends if anyone objected to our marriage, I donât know what Adair thought. He actually ran out to take me away. You have no idea at that time, but Blockhead actually picked me up and ran away.â
Chu Luo was a little surprised that Qin Ming, who usually didnât show his emotions, would do such a thing in front of so many people.
âAs the princess of America, everyone in the upper-class society of America attended your wedding, right?â
âYes, thatâs why Blockhead was so manly that day.â
Chu Luo looked at the smitten Anya and asked, âWhat happened after Qin Ming took you away?â
âNothing happened? Later on, I heard from my mother that Adair was taken away by his family. My father even specially said to everyone that this was just a young manâs prank. As a father, he gave us his greatest blessings.â
Since the king was on Qin Mingâs side, Chu Luo was relieved.
Anya continued, âTo our surprise, Li actually announced via video to everyone at our wedding that the US agent rights of the Blazing Glory gaming capsule were given to our royal family.â
When Chu Luo heard this, she thought for a while. âDid Yan get up to send a video in the middle of the nightâ
She suspected that the video had been recorded in advance and sent over by a subordinate when the time came.
The two of them chatted for more than an hour. Anya couldnât hold on anymore and returned to Qin Mingâs villa to rest.
Chu Luo walked alone in the garden.
The entire Li residence looked festive with all the wedding decorations.
The entire front yard, which was to be used to receive guests, had undergone a massive transformation this month.
In particular, there was a huge house built on the venue of their wedding.
That house occupied more than ten acres.
The appearance of the house was actually the same as the Priest Hall in the Kingdom of Phoenix Skies.
The priest hall of the Kingdom of Phoenix Skies was solemn. Here, not only was it solemn, but it was also gorgeous and festive.
Chu Luo looked outside for a while and walked towards the door. However, not long after she left, she saw a middle-aged woman standing on the other side and looking at the fresh flowers outside.
âThere was a servant standing beside the middle-aged woman.
Chu Luo wondered if she should go over and greet her. After all, this was Li Yanâs third aunt.
She had just taken a few steps over when she heard the servant suddenly say to Third Madam, âThird Madam, I heard that just this house alone costs nearly two billion yuan. There are even more decorative flowers inside. The entire wedding venue might add up to seven or eight billion yuan.â
The servant obviously hated the rich, and her tone was a little sharp. âThis kind of good-looking but impractical building will definitely be removed after the wedding.â
Third Madamâs expression was calm as she listened to the servant. After the servant finished speaking, she didnât react and just turned to leave.
The servant didnât give up. As she walked, she continued, âThird Madam, I heard that Young Master has already hired an elder to host the wedding⦠To think he didnât even invite you, his real elder.â
Third Madam still didnât say anything. The two of them walked away one after another.
Chu Luo stood there and looked at their backs. An idea suddenly popped into her mind. She flicked her finger and a trace of red light shot into the servantâs brain.
Only then did she walk into the building.
It was spacious inside. There werenât many load-bearing pillars, and it looked especially big and spacious. There were already many dining tables piled around. When the time came, there would be more than a thousand banquet tables inside.
In the middle was a wedding platform in the shape of a T with fresh flowers surrounding it. Their wedding photos would be broadcast on the wall in the middle.
Chu Luo stood inside and watched for a while before going out.
However, just as she went out, she met the servant who had been with Third Madam previously.
The servantâs face was pale, as if she had just suffered a huge fright. She was running anxiously towards the front yard.
Chu Luo strode over and stopped her. âWhat are you doing?â
âWhen the servant saw that it was Chu Luo, she quickly said to her, âMiss Chu, itâs great to see you. Third Madam suddenly fainted just now.â
âSince she fainted, why didnât you call the doctor immediately?â
âThird Madam⦠Third Madamâ¦â The servant looked like she didnât dare to speak and her body was trembling.
Chu Luo looked at her and shouted in a low voice, âSpeak!â
The servantâs body trembled and she quickly said, âWhen Third Madam fainted, a few worms ran out of her body. Theyâre so⦠so scary.â
Chu Luoâs expression instantly became stern. âWhat kind of worm crawled out of her body?â
âLike a caterpillar without fur.â
Chu Luo pulled a long face. âTake me there to take a look.â
âBut⦠butâ¦â
The servant looked like she didnât believe Chu Luo could deal with that kind of worm at all.
Chu Luoâs expression turned even colder.
The servantâs body trembled again and she quickly led her towards Third Madamâs courtyard.
The two of them walked for half an hour before arriving outside Third Madamâs courtyard.
The servant said to Chu Luo, âMiss Chu, Madam fainted as soon as she entered the courtyard.â
After saying that, she pushed open the courtyard door.
Chu Luo looked inside and didnât discover anyone.
He turned to ask her, âYouâre not the only servant serving Third Madam. Where are the others?â
âBecause you and Young Master are getting married soon, the others have been transferred over to help.â
âIs that so?â
Chu Luo walked in.
The servant followed and closed the door and locked it.
Chu Luo turned around and looked at the servant whose expression had changed and was no longer respectful to her. The corners of her lips curled up and she asked, âHow many lives do you think you and the people inside can have to pay for framing the Li familyâs mistress?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âPfft!â The servant sneered. âMistress? After today, you wonât be the mistress of this residence anymore.â
âI wonât be? Then who will be?â
âDonât worry about who it is. Itâs not you in any case.â
Chu Luo nodded and asked, âWho gave you the courage to trick me here in the Li residence?â
The servant looked at her disdainfully. âWho asked you to be so stupid?â
âStupid?â
The smile on Chu Luoâs face widened a little. The servant actually felt a chill down her spine.
Chu Luo walked towards the servant.
The servant subconsciously retreated two steps. Thinking that Chu Luo had been tricked by her to come here, she decided she had nothing to be afraid of. She instantly puffed up her chest and glared at her confidently.
âWeâve already blocked all the surveillance cameras nearby. As long as we can capture your scandal and ruin your face, weâll see if Young Master will still marry you.â
Pa! Pa! Pa!
Chu Luo clapped her hands and said, âWhat a vicious idea.â
After saying that, she lowered her hands and asked, âSince you want to do this to me, why are the others still hiding behind my back? Come out, all of you.â
As soon as Chu Luo finished speaking, a few people came out.
Chu Luo glanced at them and asked, âAre you people hired by Third Madam or by her maiden family? Let me think⦠Third Madamâs maiden family seems to be a prominent family because of Third Madamâs support. Itâs a considerably large clan. Qing Ning and her brother probably donât have the ability to
come to the Li residence now⦠Whoâs here now?â
âHmph! Who cares who it is? Iâl let you have a taste of the pain our Miss Qing Ning experienced back then.â
After saying that, those people surrounded Chu Luo.
Chu Luoâs body shook and she sealed all their acupoints in an instant.
Only the frightened servant was left with her eyes wide open.
Chu Luo walked towards her again. âWhere is Third Madam? Was she the one who instructed these things?â
âNo⦠no.â The servant didnât expect Chu Luo to be so powerful. She was so frightened that she couldnât speak properly.
âHmph.â
Chu Luo took out her phone and pressed a button. She said to the other party, âSearch.â
Before the servant could react, Chu Luo quickly retreated. The door was knocked open with gravity.
Then, a large group of bodyguards rushed in and knocked the servant to the ground.
âAh⦠Ouchâ¦â
Seeing a few bodyguards deliberately step over the servant, Chu Luo stood at the side with her arms crossed and watched without sympathy.
The bodyguards quickly found the people from Third Madamâs maiden family. It was a man about the same age as Qing Ning.
âWhen the man was caught, he was still in disbelief.
The moment he was caught, he first scanned everyone and realized that besides Chu Luo, Li Yan and his third aunt werenât around. He immediately calmed down. He looked at Chu Luo and asked with a dark expression, âAs the Li familyâs future mistress, is this how you treat guests?â
Chu Luo glanced at him and asked one of the bodyguards, âHave you found Third Madam?â
The bodyguard moved the communicator on his ear and said to her respectfully, âMadam, Third Madam will be here soon.â
Not a minute after the bodyguard finished speaking, she heard footsteps outside the door.
Then, the butler and Third Madam walked in.
The moment the butler walked in, he walked to Chu Luoâs side and stood there.
Third Madam glanced at everyone in the house and finally placed her gaze on Chu Luo. She asked, âI wonder how my nephew offended Miss Chu?â
âAunt, you came back at the right time. She didnât distinguish between right and wrong and got a group of bodyguards to enter your house and conduct a search while you werenât around.â
Third Madam looked at Chu Luo with her steady eyes.
Chu Luo smiled at her and deliberately asked in a puzzled tone, âWasnt it said that you fainted after being poisoned by Gu? Your servant brought me here anxiously, but you were actually perfectly fine and strolling outside.â
Anger finally appeared in Third Madamâs calm eyes.
Without needing Chu Luo to say anything, she turned to the servant who had been pulled up.
The servantâs face turned pale.
She knelt down with a bang and kowtowed heavily to Third Madam. âThird Madam, itâs my fault alone. I just wanted to fight for Miss Qing Ningâs justice, thatâs why I tricked her into coming here. This matter has nothing to do with Young Master Qing Zhi.â
Third Madam retracted her gaze from the servant and said to Chu Luo coldly, âTake this person away. You can do whatever you want with her.â
These words made the servantâs body tremble uncontrollably, but she didnât defend herself.
Chu Luo looked at Third Madam with displeasure in her eyes. âWho said that only she participated? Look, those people standing there arenât moving either. Theyâre from your house, right?â
âNo.â
âSince heâs not, why is he in your house?â
After Chu Luo asked this, she suddenly asked the butler, âButler, have you gotten someone to transfer all the servants in Third Madamâs house to help over the past few days?â
âNo.â
The expressions of Third Madam and Qing Zhi changed at the same time.
Third Madam looked into Chu Luoâs eyes. âI want to see Li Yan..â
