Chapter 493: A Fight
Wu Yiyao looked at her in surprise. “Then what is it?”
“I’ve seen it in an ancient book at Imperial University. It’s recorded that XX clansmen can’t tolerate a single grain of sand in their eyes when it comes to love. As long as a clansman marries an outsider, they will sprinkle flower petals where there is water on the day of their marriage. Before the wedding, the XX clansmen will personally bring a ladle into their marriage room.
“In that ladle of water, there will be a Heart Locking Gu. As long as the other party betrays her, the Gu worm will eat his heart and kill him.”
Wu Yiyao suddenly felt a little cold. She touched her arms and asked, “Will that person really die after betraying the other party?”
“Not only that, both sides will have this Gu worm planted inside of them. If the person poisoned by the Gu worm comes into too much contact with the opposite sex outside and is discovered by the other half, as long as he or she feels terrible and in pain, the other half will also feel terrible and in pain.”
When Wu Yiyao heard this, she was silent for a few seconds before she suddenly thought of something. “Isn’t it only the people from Southern Xinjiang who know how to plant Gu? Is the xx clan related to the Miao Clan?”
“The xx clan is close to Southern Xinjiang.”
After Chu Luo finished speaking, she looked at the group of women who were taking photos with their phones by the pool. She had no intention of walking over to play with them.
When Wu Yiyao heard Chu Luo say this, she no longer was in the mood to look at the petals inside the pool.
However, just because the two of them didn’t go over didn’t mean that no one else did.
The Qin sisters came over while everyone was chatting and laughing around the pool.
Tonight, the two sisters didn’t pretend to be innocent. After they came over, Qin Xin quietly observed those people. Qin Xiang went straight to the point. “Chu Luo, can we talk in private?”
Chu Luo didn’t have a good impression of the Qin family at all. When she heard this, she asked coldly, “Do you think I will talk to you in private?”
Qin Xiang’s expression changed slightly, but in the next second, she said sincerely, “I know you hate our Qin family. You think that many things are done by our Qin family, but all the men of our Qin family have disappeared. What else do you think we can do when only my grandfather and a group of women are left behind?
“Besides, we’re looking for you to talk in private because we want to tell you something about what the Duanmu family wants to do to CEO Li. Do you really think the Duanmu family is clean?”
Chu Luo continued to look at Qin Xiang coldly.
Wu Yiyao, who was standing at the side, looked at Chu Luo worriedly. She seemed to have guessed something from the Qin sisters’ words. She felt that they were doing it on purpose, but she also felt that they were telling the truth.
At this moment, Qin Xin coughed.
Then, Duanmu Zhixuan and Shang Yun walked over.
After Duanmu Zhixuan walked over, she crossed her arms and looked at the Qin sisters. Her words were filled with ridicule. “Yo, you people from the Qin family still have the face to look for Chu Luo. Do you think Li Yan hasn’t dealt with you enough?”
Qin Xiang was displeased and raised her voice. “Duanmu Zhixuan, what do you mean?”
Their voices weren’t soft. As soon as they spoke, the others surrounding the swimming pool looked over and quietly surrounded them.
Duanmu Zhixuan sneered at Qin Xiang. “Do I have to spell it out clearly? Do you think Li Yan and Chu Luo have no idea that your Qin family hired someone from Southern Xinjiang to cast Gu poison on Chu Luo’s high school form teacher?”
“You’re spouting nonsense!”
“Chu Luo knows if we’re talking nonsense or not.”
Everyone looked at Chu Luo.
Chu Luo’s expression darkened.
Qin Xiang and Qin Xin were in a hurry to explain.
“Chu Luo, our Qin family has never cast a Gu poison on your high school form teacher.”
“That’s right. During that time, our Qin family didn’t even go to Ocean City. How could we cast a Gu poison on your high school form teacher?”
When the crowd heard this, they couldn’t help but whisper.
“What exactly is going on? Did someone plant Gu on Chu Luo’s high school form teacher?”
“No way. That’s too wicked.”
“But seeing how Qin Xiang and Qin Xin are in such a hurry to explain, is it really not their Qin family’s doing?”
“Who knows now? My father said that he hasn’t seen the Qin men in a long time. It’s possible that they went to that ancient tomb and won’t be able to come back. The Qin family needs CEO Li’s help the most now.”
“So it’s the Qin family who’s worried that their family’s status won’t be maintained. They’re thinking of ways to rope in Chu Luo so that Chu Luo can say something nice to CEO Li… How sinister.”
“The Qin family is interested in a businessman?”
“That depends on that businessman’s status.”
…
Hearing everyone’s whispers, Qin Xiang and Qin Xin’s expressions changed due to anxiousness. Especially at this moment, Duanmu Zhixuan deliberately raised the corners of her lips and sneered at them.
The two of them felt that Duanmu Zhixuan must have deliberately let these people say that. At the thought of this, a trace of killing intent flashed across their hearts.
Chu Luo glanced at the three of them and a glint flashed across her eyes. She looked at the Qin sisters and said, “As long as you show evidence that your Qin family isn’t the one who planted the Gu poison on Teacher Gao, I’ll talk to you.”
When the Qin sisters heard this, a glint flashed across their eyes.
How could Duanmu Zhixuan let them have a chance to produce fake evidence? She reminded Chu Luo, “Chu Luo, I believe Li Yan has already sent people to investigate this matter. Don’t tell me you really believe that the Qin family isn’t the one who planted the Gu poison on your form teacher?”
Chu Luo narrowed her eyes and looked at her. She curled her lips and said, “Yan didn’t catch that Gu Master. Although the evidence of the investigation all points to the Qin family, I feel that this matter isn’t so simple. I’ll listen to what they have to say.”
Qin Xin sneered at Duanmu Zhixuan and said, “Did you hear that? Chu Luo has already spoken. Who do you think you are, Duanmu Zhixuan? What right do you have to stop her?”
Qin Xiang continued, “If you continue to stop her, it might seem like your Duanmu family framed the Qin family regarding the Gu master.”
“Qin Xiang, what did you say?” Duanmu Zhixuan’s expression darkened instantly. She snorted coldly and said, “Evidence is everything. Since you say you have evidence in your hands and there are so many people here, then take it out immediately for everyone to see. Don’t just rely on your mouth to turn black into white.”
“Hmph! So be it.”
Qin Xiang took out her phone and tapped it twice before playing a recording.
One of them said, “As long as you point everything to the Qin family, I’ll give you ten million yuan and buy you a house by the sea in XX Nation. I heard that XX Nation is the best environment for raising Gu worms.”
Another person added a condition: “Find me a few more Gu test subjects.”
“Deal.”
Before Qin Xiang could put away her phone, Duanmu Zhixuan snatched it away.
She mocked them loudly, “Do you want to think Chu Luo is a fool, or do you want to think everyone else here is a fool? To say that their conversation is evidence is simply too funny.”
“Duanmu Zhixuan, return my phone to me. You must be feeling guilty and want to destroy the phone!”
As Qin Xiang spoke, she snatched the phone.
Qin Xin followed suit. “The first person’s voice was obviously Duanmu Tian’s. How dare you argue!”
As Duanmu Zhixuan held her phone, she said, “Chu Luo is an Internet expert. Whether this is real or just a synthesis, you can show it to Chu Luo.”
“We’ll show it to Chu Luo ourselves. By snatching the phone away, it’s obvious you’re the one who’s guilty.”
“I’m guilty? I think you’re the ones who are guilty.”
As the three of them spoke, they actually reached the swimming pool.
The others were a little confused, so they all watched as the three of them pushed each other. No one went up to stop the fight.
Chu Luo looked at them as if she was watching a show.
At this moment, Wu Yiyao, who was standing at the side, asked Chu Luo in a low voice, “Little Chu, do you think that recording is real?”
Chu Luo said affirmatively, “It should be half true.”
Wu Yiyao looked at her in confusion.
At this moment, the three women actually fell into the pool at the same time.
Plop!
Splash!
“Heavens, the people from the Duanmu and Qin families fell into the swimming pool!”
The dumbfounded women finally came back to their senses and everyone quickly ran over to save them.
Chu Luo asked Wu Yiyao, “Sister Wu, do you want to leave this place?”
These three people wouldn’t appear in front of her for a while. There should be others appearing. She had to give that person a chance.
Wu Yiyao glanced at the three women who had been rescued and asked Chu Luo, “Aren’t you going to check that recording?”
“The phone is still in the pool.” Chu Luo looked disgusted. “There’s nothing to check.”
It wasn’t like she didn’t know who cast Old Gao’s Gu poison. The Qin family was doing this now because they wanted to stop Li Yan from helping the Duanmu family.
Seeing Chu Luo say this, Wu Yiyao nodded at her without asking further. “Coincidentally, I want to go to the washroom. Let’s go together.”
“Hello.”
The two of them ignored the others and turned to walk to the side.
In order to facilitate the guests, the merchants had pasted a guide card in the washroom. Even without the guidance of a servant, the guests could still find the toilet themselves.
The two of them went to a building not far from the pool, but they had to take a few turns.
After turning the corner, they could no longer see the people at the pool.
The road was very quiet, and there were no glass rooms.
The moment Wu Yiyao walked out, she shivered from the cold.
Neither of them had brought coats. Seeing her like this, Chu Luo looked around and saw a camera not far away. She said, “When we get past that camera later, I’ll conjure up a coat for you.”
Wu Yiyao wasn’t the kind who forsaked warmth for style. She immediately nodded. “Okay.”
The two of them walked to a blind spot of the camera and Chu Luo conjured up a coat for Wu Yiyao.
Wu Yiyao exclaimed, “Little Chu, you conjured up my coat?”
When they entered the living room of the Shang family villa, they had taken off their coats and let the servants place them elsewhere.
Chu Luo responded with an “Mm”.
