Cute But Brutal Wife
Chapter 339: The Duanmu Family Is Truly Enthusiastic Tonight
The two of them stopped and turned around to see Nangong Yi walking over with the paper box in his hand.
Nangong Yi smiled and said, “It looks like I came out at the right time. Lefs go. I can bring Princess Anya along.”
“Thank you.”
The three of them walked towards the parking lot.
As soon as they left, Neeson walked out from the side. He had been staring towards the three of them leaving, and a dark glint flashed across his eyes. After a while, he turned around and walked to the other side.
......................
Since he was going to attend the Duanmu family banquet, Anya had to return to the embassy to change clothes.
When the two of them walked to the school gate, Li Yan's car was already waiting there.
Unexpectedly, the guard of the Sun family was still standing outside the school.
Anya was a little surprised. “It was unexpected that these guards were still here. The Sun family was very wise. This way, no one dares to bother you.”
Chu Luo nodded.
The two of them walked over to the car where Li Yan was and the door opened.
Chu Luo said to Li Yan, Her “A was also invited to a banquet by the Duanmu family tonight. Ask someone to send it back.”
Li Yan nodded at him and said to Qin Ming, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, “Qin Ming, send Anya back.”
Qin Ming pushed the door from the front passenger seat and walked down. He said to Anya with an expressionless face, “Follow me.”
After saying that, he walked towards the escort car in the back.
Qin Ming walked over and knocked on the window in front. After the driver lowered the window, he said to her, “Exit. I'll use this car.”
Driver down.
Anya glared at the bodyguard's car and thought, ‘Does this guy want me to ride in a car like that?’
Qin Ming turned around and gestured at him. “Log.”
Anya was about to speak when Chu Luo, who was standing beside her, said lightly, “If you don't want Qin Ming to escort you back, you can only ask the other bodyguards to do so. You must think carefully. Qin Ming was the best at fighting. If something happens in the middle of the road, he can solve it.”
Anya swallowed her words and walked reluctantly.
Only then did Chu Luo get into the car.
The car door closed and the car drove out.
Chu Luo told Li Yan about how many overseas royal families knew about the tomb. As he spoke, his brows involuntarily furrowed.
He said, “This must be a big conspiracy. I wonder who spread the word about the tomb?”
Chu Luo thought for a moment and continued, “Do you think the Qin family released the news?”
“It may.” Li Yan grabbed his hand and patted it comfortably. “I will send someone to investigate this matter soon.”
“Mm.”
The car drove back to the villa.
Both of them walked upstairs. They will change into formal evening clothes for the banquet.
Tonight, Li Yan had prepared a long-sleeved lotus pink matching dress for Chu Luo.
Chu Luo had seen the clothes to be worn at the banquet before and it was usually a short-sleeved evening dress. After she put on this dress, she purposely walked in front of Li Yan and asked, “Why are you thinking of preparing such a dress for me?”
Li Yan looked at him, who looked pink and tender with these clothes. His fingers moved and he finally refrained from turning his body to bully her. He asked in a hoarse voice, “You don't like it?”
“I like it.”
After Chu Luo finished speaking, she curled her lips and said, “Concidentally, it fits perfectly into Tangmu's suit.”
Li Yan was wearing a crescent-white Tang suit with golden threads on it tonight. It was unknown whether it was because of his elegant aura or because his clothes complemented his aura, but he was so handsome that he was like a god in the sky, noble and unattainable.
Chu Luo looked at him and could not help but walk towards him. He hooked his neck and tiptoed to kiss his lips.
It was tightened at the same time.
The two are stuck close to each other.
Li Yan looked at her pink lips and said in a slightly hoarse voice, “Luoluo, you don't seem to have checked my body properly last time.”
Chu Luo was stunned for a moment. The next second, he reacted and his face flushed red.
He turned his face away from her and said, “Who wants to check your body!”
Li Yan deliberately chuckled in her ear, her laughter bewitching.
Chu Luo could not bear it anymore and turned her face around.
His lips swept his lips.
When the car arrived outside the Duanmu residence, Chu Luo realized that there were many people invited by the Duanmu residence tonight. Moreover, there were armed guards everywhere outside their residence tonight. It was obvious that they were blocking someone.
At this time, many cars were speeding up and stopping at the designated location. The third generation of the Duanmu family were all standing by the door to greet the guests.
Chu Luo smiled and retracted her gaze. “The Duanmu family is very enthusiastic tonight.”
He had just finished speaking when a man walked over.
Li Yan told him, “He is the third generation eldest son of the Duanmu family, Duanmu Ze.”
He had just finished talking when Duanmu Ze came to their car. Then, Duanmu Ze tapped his finger at the window.
After the driver lowered the window, Duanmu Ze said to the two of them with proper enthusiasm, “Li Yan, Chu Luo, you are here. Grandpa even asked if you were here now.”
After saying that, he even opened the car door for them. “Come go. I'll take you to see Grandpa first.”
Li Yan nodded coldly at Duanmu Ze, in stark contrast to Duanmu Ze's enthusiasm.
Duanmu Ze seemed to have gotten used to Li Yan's attitude and was not angry. Instead, he said to Chu Luo, “We also invited the Sun family tonight. Maybe they'll be here soon.”
Chu Luo simply nodded at him indifferently.
The two of them went down and walked through the door under the lead of Duanmu Ze.
Besides people from the political world, there are also many people from the business world who are invited today. Everyone licked them enthusiastically or greeted each other politely. As they walked, many people talked about the Qin family. At the same time, they were secretly assessing Li Yan and Chu Luo.
Duanmu Residence was a large residence with several entrances and exits. Duanmu Ze led the two of them towards the courtyard in the back. As he walked, he said, “I didn't expect Chu Luo to know people from the Sun family. Previously, the Sun family had never participated in a banquet. They only agreed to participate after knowing that you will come tonight.”
As he spoke, he deliberately teased, “It is all thanks to Chu Luo that we managed to invite the Sun.” family
Chu Luo pursed her lips and did not say anything. At this moment, Li Yan suddenly pulled her into his arms and asked, “Have you found the money that the Qin family has transferred?”
When Chu Luo heard this, she suddenly glanced at Li Yan.
Duanmu Ze's expression turned slightly dark. “No. The Qin family is too clever. They leave no evidence at all.”
Chu Luo asked, “How is the Qin family now? Can you punish them immediately?”
“Someone from the Qin family has come out to take the rap. This was the eldest son of the Qin family, Qin Hui. Old Master Qin came out at the same time to uphold justice and personally handed Qin Hui to the prosecutor's office. Therefore, they could only hold Qin Hui back for now. The others of the Qin family are only observed at home unless we find more useful evidence.”
Chu Luo was slightly surprised that the Qin family could react so quickly. However, when he thought of Old Master Qin, whom he met last time, he felt it was normal for them to do so.
As the three of them spoke, they walked through the second and third pages. As they turned to the third courtyard, they saw a fashionable girl with lollipops in her mouth walking over. He seemed a little out of place with the Duanmu family.
The girl looked to be only 16 or 17 years old. He looked at Chu Luo's long face, but his eyes had a wild glow in them. When he saw Li Yan and Chu Luo walking over, he was shocked. Then, he judged Chu Luo harshly. “You Chu Luo?”
Chu Luo looked at the girl in front of her and said coldly, “I think I am already very famous.”
The girl did not expect Chu Luo to say that and pouted miserably.
Seeing Li Yan's colder expression, Duanmu Ze quickly scolded the girl, little “Xi, stop messing around. Didn't I tell you to go change clothes? There are so many guests tonight. As a member of the Duanmu family, you must be a good host.”
Duanmu Xi pursed her lips to him. “Do I have anything in common with those people? I don't want to go.”
Duanmu Ze's face darkened. Duanmu Xi quickly corrected herself. “Good.”
After saying that, he made a face towards her and stepped away.
