The Wife Of The Wealthy Family Is Fierce And Cute. Chapter 188 - Li Yan Said, “I Miss You.”

Chapter 188: Li Yan Said, “I Miss You.”

At around nine in the evening, a monk came over and said to Chu Luo, who was leaning against the door frame and listening to the monks reciting scriptures, “Patron Chu, someone wants to meet you in the peach blossom forest outside the monastery.”

Chu Luo nodded at him.

The monk left.

Chu Luo turned and walked out of the monastery. Just as she reached the ancient tree in the outermost courtyard, her phone rang.

She took out her phone and saw that the caller ID was “Big Baddie.” Chu Luo answered the call.

Li Yan’s unique cold and steady voice immediately came from the other end of the line. “Luoluo.”

Chu Luo subconsciously responded with an “Mm.” Then, she realized that this was a little too intimate and asked, “Why did you call me?”

Li Yan: “I miss you.”

Chu Luo pursed her lips and stopped talking. An indescribable feeling rose in her heart.

Her cheeks felt a little warm.

Why was this person suddenly so mushy!

Li Yan asked, “Are you coming home tonight?”

Chu Luo: “No.”

As Chu Luo spoke, she had already walked to the side of the door that looked even more solemn and sacred under the street lamp.

Li Yan said, “I want to eat peaches.”

Chu Luo said, “Then I’ll bring some back for you tomorrow.”

Li Yan: “Okay.”

Chu Luo had already walked out the door. After sensing it, she walked along the outer wall of the temple to the left.

This place was far from the city, and there were large peach trees everywhere. Other than the sound of the evening wind rustling the leaves and the chirping of frogs, birds, and insects, everything was quiet.

Chu Luo said to Li Yan, “I have something on now. I’ll hang up first.”

Li Yan responded with an “Mm” and Chu Luo hung up. She put away her phone and strode forward.

There was a small path about a meter wide every once in a while in the peach forest. Chu Luo walked in from one of the paths and walked for almost ten minutes before stopping by a lake.

There were no streetlights here anymore, but there was an abundance of moonlight tonight, allowing people to see their surroundings clearly.

Xuan Ba was standing by the lake, his back facing her. The copper bell on his belt let out a clear tinkling sound in the evening wind.

Chu Luo stopped and looked at Xuan Ba’s back as she said, “I have something to do later. If you want to fight, then fight quickly.”

Xuan Ba, who had wanted to pose a little longer, turned around at this moment and said in a low voice, “Since you want to die early, I’ll satisfy you.”

With that, he quickly attacked, sending a talisman towards Chu Luo.

Chu Luo looked at the talisman and stood still, but a red glow flashed across her wrist.

The red light flickered, then the talisman burned itself in midair.

Xuan Ba widened his eyes in disbelief. “What did you just do?”

“Aren’t you very powerful? Can’t you tell what I did?”

“You’re not human?”

“You’re the one who’s not human!”

After Chu Luo finished speaking, she pointed her finger towards the lake. Countless water pillars rose and instantly turned into sharp swords that flew towards Xuan Ba.

Xuan Ba quickly took out a talisman and cast a barrier around him. When the water swords. .h.i.t the barrier, they turned into water and fell to the ground.

“You’re definitely not human. How else could you control things with just a flick of your finger?!” Xuan Ba shouted. “You little vixen, I’ll enforce justice on behalf of the heavens today and make your soul dissipate. You won’t dare to come out and harm anyone again.”

“I harmed people?” Chu Luo sneered when she heard that. “Some people are worse than demons. Don’t do things that make you worse than beasts under the guise of upholding justice for the heavens.”

“What do you mean?”

“What do I mean? Did the people and animals that you’ve killed all these years not turn into ghosts to take revenge on you?”

“Nonsense!”

Xuan Ba flew into a rage out of humiliation and took off the bell on his belt.

The moment the bell rang, the surrounding magnetic field changed. The originally beautiful scenery of the ten-kilometer peach forest immediately turned into dark clouds that covered the sky.

In the dark sky, lightning exploded and thunder rumbled.

Chu Luo frowned slightly when she saw this scene. “It’s actually a divine weapon with a murderous aura. No wonder there’s so much resentment on it.”

Xuan Ba looked at Chu Luo, who was just standing there, and said with a ruthless expression, “Return all the things you took from my eldest disciple and I’ll let you die faster. If you don’t, I’ll let you have a taste of being struck by eighteen lightning bolts.”

“Eighteen bolts of lightning.” When Chu Luo heard his threat, her expression didn’t change at all. She even sneered and said in a clear voice, “Have you watched too many television dramas? Eighteen bolts of lightning… Is it that I can become an immortal after enduring eighteen bolts of lightning?”

“Hmph! You can only be cheeky now! You injured three of my disciples. We’ll settle this score slowly.”

“But I don’t want to take my time slowly calculating with you.”

After Chu Luo finished speaking, she waved her arm, and a ray of light appeared, slicing through the sky. Amid that powerful ray of light, a guqin that was flickering with fluorescence appeared in front of her.

It was as if a phoenix was spreading its wings around the zither.

When Xuan Ba saw the zither, greed quickly flashed across his eyes. “So this is the legendary ‘Fengxuan Zither.’”

After saying this, the killing intent in his eyes became even stronger. “This is perfect. After you die, this zither will be mine.”

“Then let’s see if you have the ability.”

After saying that, Chu Luo quickly plucked the strings.

The moment the melody was played, the world changed color.

Xuan Ba instantly felt its power.

He hurriedly shook the bell to block it.

The two types of sounds collided. In that instant, the entire world seemed to have been torn apart. A wave of powerful energy quickly poured in.

By the time Xuan Ba sensed that something was wrong, it was already too late.

The melody had traveled through his ears to his limbs. In the next second, he spat out a mouthful of blood and knelt down.

The bell in his hand fell out against his will.

“Copper Bell, come back.”

At this moment, even if he shouted until his throat was hoa.r.s.e, the bell wouldn’t return to his hand.

A dark cloud quickly gathered above his head.

Xuan Ba widened his eyes in horror. In the next instant, there was an explosion above his head.

Boom!

“Ah…”

Rumble…

“Ahhh…”

Amid the deafening thunder and miserable screams, Chu Luo put away the Fengxuan Zither and walked to the place where the bell had fallen to pick it up. Only then did she walk towards Xuan Ba, who was surrounded by dark clouds and couldn’t escape. She kindly reminded him:

“You wanted me to transcend the tribulation just now. I’m giving this chance to you instead. As long as you can withstand eighteen bolts of heavenly lightning, you have a chance to become an immortal. So… all the best!”

After saying that, she even gestured at him to cheer him on. Amid Xuan Ba’s screams, she turned around and walked back towards the path.

After walking for a while, she waved her arm and the barrier that she had set down when she came parted to form a path. After she walked over, she closed it again.

So, besides a portion of people, no one else knew what had happened inside the barrier.

After Chu Luo walked out of the barrier, she was no longer in a hurry. It was cooler here than in the city. The evening wind blew more comfortably, and there was also an alluring peach fragrance.

Chu Luo looked at the peaches that reached over from the side of the road and plucked one without hesitation. She ate it after she skinned it.

She happened to walk out of the path halfway through chewing on the big peach.

As soon as she reached the avenue by the monastery wall and was about to continue nibbling on the peach, she blinked at the man walking towards her and was stunned.

Her heart suddenly started beating faster.

Li Yan walked over to look at the silly little thing who had placed the peach by her mouth. He took the peach from her hand and took a bite on the bite mark.

Chu Luo’s gaze landed on his throat.

She subconsciously swallowed.

Li Yan’s gaze deepened at her gaze and he lowered his head to plant a kiss on her lips.

Chu Luo’s eyes widened.

When she recovered, she quickly covered her mouth and looked around with a sheepish expression. Seeing that no one was around, she pointed at him and scolded him in a delicate voice. “Big baddie! Who asked you to kiss me?”

Li Yan smiled. “Didn’t you ask me to kiss you?”

“Nonsense! When did I let you kiss me?!”

After Chu Luo finished speaking, she saw her half-eaten peach in his hand. She walked closer to him and wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h it back from him.

Li Yan immediately realized her motive and raised his hand.

As she was shorter than him, when he raised his hand, she couldn’t reach it at all.

“Big baddie, return my peach to me.”

“Your peach is sweeter than all the other peaches.”

“Even if it’s sweet, it belongs to me.”

Chu Luo stood on tiptoes and jumped up to s.n.a.t.c.h it.

However, a strong arm wrapped around her waist.

Her body was quickly brought into his broad embrace. Li Yan tilted his head and said in a slightly hoa.r.s.e voice by her ear, “Give me a kiss and I’ll return the peach to you.”

“Dream on!”

Just as Chu Luo finished speaking, she watched as Li Yan took her peach and took another bite.

In her attempt to s.n.a.t.c.h it, Chu Luo sent herself to him.

“Ooh…”

Her mouth was sealed.

After a while, Chu Luo was released.

“Do you still want to eat?” Li Yan asked.

Chu Luo panted for a while before pus.h.i.+ng him away. She turned her head away and snorted. “No.”

Li Yan looked at her tsundere expression and wished he could grab her again.

However, he knew his limits. Knowing that the little thing was about to be angered, he handed the peach to her.

Chu Luo looked at him in disbelief.

“If you don’t want to eat it, I’ll finish it up.”

“I’m not eating.”

Chu Luo watched as Li Yan ate the remaining half of the peach and glared at him with a tense expression.

Big baddie! He’s finis.h.i.+ng all of it just because she said no?

Li Yan looked at her expression and held her hand as they walked towards the path.

Chu Luo tried to pull her hand away but failed to do so. Thus, she gave up.

“Where are you taking me?”

“To pluck the biggest and sweetest peach for you.”
