Cute But Brutal Wife
Chapter 341: Troubled
Yang Lu looked at Chu Luo with a complicated gaze and replied, “That's how.”
After saying that, he said to the girl beside him, “Didn't you say that you would take me to see your collection? If we don't go now, they'll find us.”
“Wait a minute.” After saying that, Duanmu Zhixuan smiled at Chu Luo and introduced herself. “Hello, Chu Luo. My name is Duanmu Zhixuan. You can enter the banquet hall first. There are a lot of people your age inside. You can go play with people you know.”
Chu Luo nodded at him and walked towards the hall.
As Chu Luo walked into the hall, Duanmu Zhixuan asked in a curious tone, “Yang Lu, you don't seem to like Chu Luo too much?”
Yang Lu immediately refuted, “How is it possible? I just wasn't close to him. Why should I be warm to her?”
Duanmu Zhixuan looked at Yang Lu's face and knew that he was lying. He suddenly thought of something and pursed his lips into a smile. She teased, “Could Chu Luo be the girl your brother Tianhao likes? Is that why you had such a reaction when you saw Chu Luo?"
Yang Lu glared at him with dissatisfaction. “Stop gossiping. That's not true.”
“It's definitely. Otherwise, why would you have such an expression when you see Chu Luo?"
“Muan Zhixuan, do you want to take me to see your treasure or not? If not, I'll be back.”
“Hai! You really..”
Duanmu Zhixuan could only end the topic of conversation and take it to the backyard.
Not long after the two of them left, Duanmu Xi, who had a lollipop in her mouth and had yet to change her clothes, walked out from the other side.
He took out a lollipop in his mouth and intense jealousy flashed in his eyes. “Why should he be liked by everyone? Hmph! Just because she is beautiful and the woman Li Yan!”
After saying that, an evil glint flashed across his eyes as he followed them.
When Chu Luo arrived at the banquet hall, she immediately attracted the attention of everyone.
The people from the Sun family who came today were Second Master Sun, Sun Tianyang (Young Master Eldest Sun), and Sun Tianhao.
When the three of them saw Chu Luo, they immediately walked over.
Second Master Sun retracted the firmness in his eyes and looked at Chu Luo kindly. He asked, “Little Chu, why did you come alone?”
Chu Luo replied, “Yan go to where Grandpa Duanmu is.”
Second Master Sun nodded.
At this moment, Eldest Master Duanmu and his wife walked over.
Eldest Master Duanmu said, “Li Yan and Chu Luo came before you. My father invited them as soon as they arrived. My father might have something to say to Li Yan, so he asked Little Chu to come out first."
After saying that, Eldest Master Duanmu asked Chu Luo, “Little Chu, no one escorted you out?”
“Ya.”
Eldest Master Duanmu smiled and said, “Then play with the children for a while. There's plenty of food there. If you are hungry, do not hold.”
He then asked Eldest Madam Duanmu, “Where is Zhixuan? Let him play with Chu Luo.”
Eldest Madam Duanmu quietly looked around and saw no one. He quickly said with a smile, “I have asked Zhixuan to help me get something. How about this? Little Chu, follow me first. I will introduce you to the other youngsters who came tonight. Maybe some of them are your classmates.”
Before Chu Luo could speak, Sun Tianhao said on his behalf, “I will take Chu Luo alone. She's shy.”
Unexpectedly, Second Master Sun agreed with Sun Tianhao. “Accurate once. Let Tianyang and Tianhao bring Little Chu to play.”
Eldest Madam Duanmu glanced at Eldest Master Duanmu calmly.
Eldest Master Duanmu said, “Sure, have fun.”
After saying that, he smiled and said to Second Master Sun, “We may not have anything in common with them, young people. Let's go and drink.”
Second Master Sun nodded and even instructed before leaving, “Company Chu Luo well.”
As the three of them left, Sun Tianhao forcefully suppressed the awkwardness in his heart and asked Chu Luo, “Do you want to eat something?”
Sun Tianyang agreed. “I heard you starved yourself before attending the banquet. Little Chu, you are still young. Don't learn from them.”
Chu Luo actually ate something when she came and was not too hungry. He shook his head and asked, “Have Anya not come yet?”
Just when Chu Luo finished asking, Second Master Duanmu walked in with Anya, who was wearing a luxurious dress and followed by a group of guards. She exuded an aura of nobility and was like a princess.
Another master from the Duanmu family also came.
“Your Highness, welcome to our Duanmu residence as a guest.” Eldest Master Duanmu bowed politely to Anya.
The others followed him and bowed politely to him.
Anya nodded at them with an expression, but her gaze swept across the hall. When he saw Chu Luo standing there, his eyes twinkled and he immediately said to the Duanmu family, “I am very happy to be able to attend the Duanmu family banquet. You don't have to specifically comfort me. I will only be with Chu Luo.”
Everyone is surprised.
Anya did not care about everyone's expression. After saying that, he walked over to Chu Luo.
Chu Luo also glanced at her clothes tonight.
As an American princess, Anya's party dress is exquisite and luxurious. Princess dress makes her look more noble.
However, Chu Luo did not particularly like her elaborate dress. He said casually, “If you like, I'll give you a few sets next time.”
“Bulkah?” Anya realized that she was a little too excited and quickly retracted her expression. He nodded with a flat face.” Fine.”
Sun Tianhao, who was standing beside Chu Luo, laughed.
Anya glanced at Sun Tianhao and was displeased. However, he still asked politely, “Chu, who are they? Where's Li?”
“They are from the Sun.” family
As soon as Chu Luo introduced them, Sun Tianyang and Sun Tianhao greeted her simultaneously.
“Halo, Princess Anya. I'm Sun Tianyang.”
“I Sun Tianhao.”
When Anya heard that it was the Sun family, she finally retracted her expression. He said, “I know you guys. This is all thanks to you guys coming to support Chu today. Otherwise, Chu will experience more violence online.”
Sun Tianyang said, “Chu Luo is the benefactor of our Sun family. It was right for us to support him.”
Sun Tianhao nodded.
At this moment, several young people from the Duanmu family walked over.
Duanmu Rui smiled and said, “Anya Princess, Chu Luo, there will be a dance party.”
She then looked at Princess Anya and continued, “I wonder if I had the honor of inviting Princess Anya to dance with me later?”
When he heard this, Sun Tianhao complained, “The music hasn't even started yet, and Duanmu Rui has already asked Princess Anya with great enthusiasm. He's really smart.”
Chu Luo happened to hear this and looked at Anya.
The others also looked at Anya and Duanmu Rui.
Actually, Anya didn't want to dance tonight, but since someone from the Duanmu family had invited her, she couldn't resist. He secretly winked at Chu Luo.
Chu Luo said to the Sun brothers through voice transmission, “You should invite Anya as well.”
Sun Tianyang and Sun Tianhao subconsciously looked at Chu Luo. Seeing his mouth closed and it seemed like no one else had heard it, before Sun Tianyang could react, Sun Tianhao said with a smile, “It happened once. When we arrived, my brother invited Princess Anya.”
After saying that, he nudged Sun Tianyang, who was in a daze. “True, brother,?”
Sun Tianyang immediately regained his senses and nodded involuntarily. “Ya.”
The smile on Duanmu Rui's face froze. He looked at Anya.
Anya smiled and nodded. “Accurate once. Sun invited me now. I walked with Chu for most of the day at Imperial University. My legs are a little uncomfortable, so I can only dance with one of you.”
He looks troubled. “Now you two have invited me, it makes things difficult for me.”
Duanmu Rui's smile thought a little. “Because Princess Anya is tired of walking around today, as a man, how can I bear to let you dance again?”
After saying that, he looked at Sun Tianyang and deliberately asked, “I think Young Master Sun has the same thoughts as me, right?”
Sun Tianyang sneered in his heart and nodded firmly. “You're right. Since Princess Anya is tired, I will definitely not let her spend her energy anymore.”
“Haha, that's right. There is still time before the dance. Why don't we go and sit down and chat so Princess Anya can rest?”
“Good.”
Everyone agreed and went to the waiting room.
After the tea and snacks were served, everyone started chatting casually.
Not long after, Yang Lu, Duanmu Ze, Duanmu Tian, Duanmu Zhixuan, and Duanmu Xi entered from outside.
“What are you talking about so happily?” Duanmu Tian was the first to speak. When he entered, he saw that Anya was there too. He walked towards her and first bowed politely. Then, he said in a relaxed tone, “Your Majesty, welcome to our home as a guest.”
After saying that, he reached out to kiss her hand.
In Chu Luo's eyes, Duanmu Tian's demeanor was a pervert. Before Anya could reach out her hand, she deliberately asked in a confused tone, “Anya's daughter said that she wanted to learn the language and customs of the empire from me. Isn't hand kissing the etiquette of Western customs?”
At first Anya did not want to extend her hand. Hearing Chu Luo's movements, he nodded. “Chu Luo is right. I want to follow the custom when in Rome.”
After saying that, he asked Chu Luo, “How do people greet each other in your kingdom?”
“In an informal atmosphere, greet each other verbally.”
When Anya heard this, she said, “Then, the banquet is not considered a formal event.”
Sun Tianhao immediately replied, “True. It's just a meeting, not an official event.”
