After school in the afternoon, Chu Luo slowly walked towards the apartnt building with her tail following her.
That person tailing her only left after she’d entered the apartnt.
Chu Luo returned to the floor where she lived. Uncle Sun and Auntie Wu had already prepared dinner, and Auntie Wu was waiting for her by the door.
“Miss Chu, you’re back.”
Chu Luo nodded at her, opened the door, and walked in.
Auntie Wu followed her in and asked, “Miss Chu, do you want to eat now or take a shower first?”
“Take a shower first.” Chu Luo placed her school bag in the living room. She suddenly thought of sothing and said to her, “You can go out with Uncle Sun tonight. It’s best if you co back tomorrow morning.”
Not questioning anything, Auntie Wu replied, “Okay, Miss Chu.”
Satisfied, Chu Luo returned to her bedroom.
Uncle Sun and Auntie Wu waited for her to finish her al before leaving.
Chu Luo first did more than three hours of practice questions. At around eight o’clock, she went next door to refine those herbs and poisons.
She had wanted a cauldron to refine dicine. She had no idea how Li Yan’s n found it, but to her surprise, they had actually acquired an antique cauldron for her.
The effects of such an antique cauldron were even better.
Chu Luo lost track of ti as soon as she entered. Suddenly, Phoenix’s voice sounded in her mind. “Mistress, soone has entered your residence.”
She stopped.
It was already past midnight. Ever since Li Yan and the others arrived, the people who lived in the building had disappeared.
Chu Luo initially didn’t mind, but at this mont, she felt that Li Yan had done sothing right. This way, she wouldn’t have to worry about disturbing others.
She took out her keys and opened the door. The lights weren’t on in the living room, but the windows were wide open.
They were on the fifth floor, and the streetlights downstairs could barely illuminate the area. The moonlight was also dim tonight.
Because of this, the wind blew in from outside the window, stirring the shadows of the curtains. In addition, a more timid person would have scread in fear at the sight of the person sitting on the sofa silently.
Chu Luo calmly raised her hand to turn on the lights.
As expected, the lights didn’t turn on.
She looked at that person and said calmly, “Coming in uninvited is a cri. Even if you are killed, I don’t think I’d need to take responsibility.”
“Haha… Young lady, you sure talk big.” That person was obviously laughing, but his tone carried the contempt of an elder towards a junior. “But you’re actually not scared. You’re really making look at you in a different light.”
“Hmph!” As Chu Luo walked towards the sofa, she asked, “Tell why you’re here.”
“You used your knowledge of poison to commit cris. I don’t like your behavior and want to teach you a lesson.”
“Oh? You’re clearly a lackey who works for money. Why are you speaking so pompously?”
“You…” Chu Luo’s words obviously angered the person sitting there. His voice beca sharp. “Little girl, you’re so young. You only know how to concoct so poison, and already, you go around harming people. You still dare to be so arrogant? Today, I’ll teach you what it ans when people say there’s always soone better. ”
“Hmph!” Chu Luo’s voice was slightly cold. “What I heard was that anyone who dares to provoke will be killed without rcy.”
That person was actually shocked by Chu Luo’s aura. When he recalled that the person in front of him was just a child, he said in a low voice, “You arrogant brat. I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your family today.”
“You… are not worthy.”
Chu Luo didn’t give this person a chance to show off. In the next second, she quickly took action and threw a handful of powder at him.
The man reacted quickly. He raised his arm and blocked the powder coming at him.
“Hmph, a re…”
Chu Luo sneered, not giving him a chance to finish his sentence. She then waved another handful of powder over.
“Ooh…”
That person didn’t expect Chu Luo to be so ruthless as to not play according to the rules. His eyes were struck and he imdiately covered them and bent down in pain.
At this mont, Chu Luo turned on the flashlight on her phone and shone it at him.
This person was thin and had on a navy blue long robe. He probably looked like an expert earlier on, but at this mont, with his face contorted in pain, all his previous deanor was gone.
As soon as he sensed the light, he bellowed at Chu Luo in a deep voice, “What drug did you drug with?”
Chu Luo looked at him and smirked. “Guess,” she said in a particularly nasty tone.
It was obvious that this person had so ability. He quickly took out a pill and swallowed it. Soon, he was fine.
How could Chu Luo give him a chance to retaliate? The few hours of refining just now wasn’t in vain. Following that, she threw handful after handful of powder at him.
It was so poisonous that the person couldn’t hold on anymore. He quickly retreated to the window and jumped down from the fifth floor.
Chu Luo ran to the window and looked at the person who’d jumped down from the air conditioner. She flicked the remaining pill in her hand and it exploded precisely on the person’s head.
When that person jumped onto the air conditioner on the second floor, he lost his balance and fell straight to the ground.
After a loud bang, the person ended up sprawled on the ground. His body spasd, but he couldn’t get up for a long ti.
Chu Luo turned around, took a roll of paper, and shouted at him, “Hey, I just used more than 20 drugs on you. You’d better hurry back and get them neutralized. Otherwise, you’ll be paralyzed in six hours, your skin will fester in eight hours, and in ten hours…”
With the help of the street lamp, Chu Luo saw that the man’s body seed to be suffering from epilepsy. It was obvious that he was scared out of his wits. In the end, he crawled and ran outside.
Only then did Chu Luo close the window and curtains in satisfaction before returning to the bedroom to sleep.
…
The man finally made his way out of the neighborhood. When he saw the bloody blisters on his hands and other parts of his body, his expression changed imdiately. He hurriedly took out his phone to make a call.
When the other party picked up the call, he said in a trembling and anxious voice, “Senior Brother, save . I was tricked by a young lass…”
…
The next day, when Chu Luo went downstairs for a run, she specifically went to the open space under her window to take a look. Sure enough, there was a human-shaped pit smashed out.
She rubbed her chin and clicked her tongue before turning around and running out of the neighborhood.
There was a park not far from the district. It was still early and there weren’t many people in the park. It was only after Chu Luo had run for more than half an hour that more people gradually appeared.
She prepared to jog back to eat.
However, when she reached the entrance of the district, she saw a familiar car parked at the guardhouse. The driver was asking about how to get to the building where she lived.
Chu Luo approached the car and saw Chu Zhengyang sitting inside. He was pressing his lips together and looking down as he dialed a number on his phone.
Chu Luo greeted him, “Daddy.”
When Chu Zhengyang heard that voice, he put away his phone and looked at Chu Luo. There was a flash of surprise in his eyes before he said, “Looks like you didn’t mistreat yourself outside.”
He then asked, “Why didn’t you answer my call?”
“I didn’t bring my phone.” Chu Luo looked at him with those dark eyes and asked calmly, “Is there sothing you want from , Daddy?”
Chu Zhengyang was suddenly not used to such an aloof Chu Luo. He tugged at his bow tie in frustration. “I was worried about you living alone outside, so I ca to see you… Get in the car, I’ll take you out for breakfast.”
Chu Luo knew that Chu Zhengyang was lying, but she didn’t expose him. She nodded at him and got into the car.
