Cute But Brutal Wife
Chapter 16: Phoenix in the Jade Pendant
When Chu Luo returned to the apartment, it was already past midnight. The television in the living room was still on and the waiter was still lying on the floor.
As soon as the servant saw Chu Luo return, his face, which was originally filled with despair, instantly shone with hope.
He hurriedly pleaded with a hoarse voice, “Second Miss, I know I was wrong. Please let me go. I'll do whatever you ask from now on.”
But in his heart, he gritted his teeth and thought: ‘Once you let me go, I will complain to Madam and see how she will deal with you!’
Chu Luo looked through the servant's mind and said coldly, “No.”
With that, he walked straight into the bedroom right before the servant's shocked expression.
The waiter only reacted after a while and started shouting.
“Second Miss, you can't do this to me! I was brought here by the Madam from the Wei household. If Madam finds out that you treat me like this, she will definitely.”.
Chu Luo stopped as she opened the door of the room. He turned and walked to the waiter.
The servant's eyes sparkled.
Chu Luo crouched down in front of him and asked, “You are only a servant, yet you continue to threaten me for no reason. Who gave you this right?”
After saying that, he quickly pressed down on his mute acupoint and said coldly, “Then let's see if you still have the strength to complain at the time my mother remembers you.”
With that said, he stood up and returned to the bedroom with the servant's eyes wide open in horror.
As soon as he entered the bedroom, Chu Luo took out a jade pendant and called out gently, “Phoenix.”
As soon as he did that, the entire jade pendant began to glow red.
At the same time, an excited voice sounded in his mind, “Mistress, I finally found you.”
Chu Luo rubbed the jade pendant with her thumb and asked, “How did you get here?”
Phoenix said, “Before the Sacred Lake Palace disappeared, the old priest used all his strength to seal it. I was put where you disappeared. Later, the king used the entire Hall of Priests as an imperial tomb. I don't know how long I waited inside until 18 years ago, someone suddenly barged in and took me out.”
“Eighteen years ago?” When Chu Luo heard that, she felt a strange and indescribable excitement. “Our dynasty is not even in the history books. Dynasty ‘Phoenix Skies’ really exists? Then... where is the imperial mausoleum now?”
Phoenix was completely silent for a moment before saying, “The Imperial Tomb was built with the blood, sweat, and tears of all the priests in the entire imperial palace. Right, no one can find him. There were also many mechanisms and formations within it. Once the formation is activated, their position will change.”
When Chu Luo heard this, her mood suddenly became extremely complicated. After a while, he asked, “Can you step out of this jade pendant?”
“Spiritual power in the outside world cannot support me. I can only come to your wrist.”
As soon as the Phoenix finished speaking, a red light lit up from the jade pendant. In the next instant, a phoenix mark appeared on Chu Luo's wrist and the jade pendant became an ordinary jade pendant.
The next morning, when Chu Luo opened her eyes, she felt much lighter.
Chu Luo got off the bed and walked towards the mirror. He looked at himself in the mirror and subconsciously touched his red cheek.
When he lifted his bangs, the scar on his forehead disappeared. He smiled with satisfaction.
“Much more pleasing to the eye now.”
He put down his bangs and was about to take a shower when his phone rang.
He walked over and took his cell phone. Caller ID shows “Kakak.”
Chu Luo did not need to guess to know the purpose of Chu Ting's call. After she pressed the “Jawab” button, Chu Ting's painful and indistinct voice sounded.
“Chu Luo, where did you hide that master? Tell me, I feel bad now. Ah... I will die.. Boohoo... Please save me...”.
Chu Luo replied coldly, “I don't know.” Then, he hung up the phone.
Just as she put down her phone, Chu Ting called again.
Chu Luo decided not to look and went to take a bath.
After she finished taking a shower, her phone still rang. Chu Luo pretended not to hear it.
It was just 5:30 in the morning. He planned to run for half an hour before eating. If nearby shops open their doors, he will be able to buy a portable audio player.
After he planned everything, he walked towards the door. However, the moment he opened the room door, a pungent smell of urine entered his nose.
When the maid, who was lying on the ground, saw Chu Luo come out, she was so agitated that her face turned red. His eyes were filled with tears, and his mouth was wide open. He was clearly begging for mercy.
“It's disgusting.”
Chu Luo frowned in displeasure and thought about how to deal with this servant and the smell of urine in the living room. It smelled so bad that he wanted to move somewhere else.
He walked out of the apartment, jogged, ate, and afterwards, bought a portable audio player.
As Chu Luo walked towards the apartment, she fiddled with her phone. Just now, the boss had taught him how to download English audio. He plans to go back and try it.
But when he reached the apartment door, he suddenly stopped.
At the same time, a Phoenix voice rang out in his mind. “Mistress, there are some people with a very strong aura in your residence!”
