Chapter 615 - You Must Have Done This On Purpose

Chu Luo spent more than an hour reading all the information about the nobles in France. It was almost dark by the time she was done.

It was unknown when the lights in the living room had lit up. Chu Luo tilted her head and glanced at the snowflakes outside the window. She thought that with such heavy snow, it indeed looked a little colder than Imperial University.

Her phone suddenly rang. Chu Luo answered it.

It was a call from Li Yan.

Li Yan said, “Luoluo, I’m going out for a while.”

Chu Luo knew that he must have something very important to attend to, so she asked, “When are you coming back?”

A low and pleasant laugh came from the phone. “I’ll come back early. If you’re bored, there’s a lot of wine in the basement of our villa.”

“Really?” Chu Luo’s voice instantly rose.

“Mm,” Li Yan said. “You can drink as much as you want.”

Chu Luo replied happily, “Okay, I’ll drink until you come back.”

Li Yan merely responded with an “Mm”.

After the two of them hung up, Chu Luo used her internal phone to call Butler Ruiz and asked him to send dinner to her.

Ruiz quickly brought Chu Luo dinner with a servant.

After dinner, Chu Luo went to the wine cellar in the basement.

When Li Yan returned to the basement and found Chu Luo, there were already more than 20 empty bottles in front of her.

Li Yan looked at Chu Luo, who was swiping her phone and drinking, and walked over to take the glass from her hand.

Chu Luo tilted her head and looked at him.

Li Yan drank the glass of wine in her hand and said, “Baby, it’s time to rest.”

Chu Luo put away her phone, stood up, and threw herself into his arms.

Li Yan caught her and his lips curled up.

Chu Luo said, “Why are you only back now? It’s already past midnight.”

“I went to a branch company here and checked on something.” Li Yan tilted his head and kissed her cheek. He chuckled and said, “Why did you drink so much?”

“There are too many varieties here. I want to try every one.” “Are you drunk?”

“How is that possible!”

Chu Luo said confidently, “I won’t get drunk no matter how much I drink.”

“Little alcoholic.” Li Yan took the bottle of wine that Chu Luo had opened and poured a glass to drink. Then, he sealed her lips. When their lips met, he said in a slightly hoarse voice, “Luoluo, I’m drunk. There’s something I want to do to you.”

“Mm… Aren’t you busy tomorrow?”

“I’m not busy tomorrow morning.”

“Don’t take off my clothes here.”

“It’s not cold here.” “But…”

The rest of her words were swallowed by his lips.

When Chu Luo opened her eyes, it was already past nine the next morning. She was lazy and didn’t want to move at all.

There was the sound of a door opening, followed by approaching footsteps.

Chu Luo covered her head with the blanket and said angrily, “Big baddie, I don’t want to see you.”

Li Yan walked over to sit on the edge of the bed and reached in to touch her.

Indeed, he felt something tremble slightly under his palm.

Chu Luo lifted the blanket and glared at him with her sparkling eyes.

Li Yan lowered his head and kissed her pink lips before saying, “You can’t blame me. You didn’t object last night either.”

When Chu Luo heard this, her face turned even redder.

She suddenly remembered something. “Did you not take any safety precautions last night?”

“Mm.”

Chu Luo took a deep breath. In the end, she couldn’t help but rub against him.

Li Yan leaned against the pillow and covered her exposed skin with the blanket. He asked in a hoarse voice, “Baby, you want to do it again?”

Chu Luo gritted her teeth at him. In the next second, she lowered her head and bit his neck.

Li Yan’s Adam’s apple bobbed a few times at Chu Luo’s enthusiastic actions. If not considering the fact that he had tired her out last night, he would definitely… Chu Luo looked up at him and said, “You must have done it on purpose.” Li Yan was indignant. “I just couldn’t help it.”

As he spoke, he massaged her waist. “It’s my wife’s fault for being so beautiful. She’s even more beautiful than wine.”

“Hmph.” Chu Luo snorted at him tsunderely, but the corners of her lips couldn’t help but curl up. Li Yan asked, “Are you hungry?”

“I’m hungry.”

“Then get up.”

As Li Yan spoke, he exerted strength in his arms and placed her beside him. He stood up and covered her before going to get her clothes.

When the two of them went downstairs, it was almost ten o’clock.

The butler waiting downstairs greeted Chu Luo good morning and instructed the servant waiting outside the door to send breakfast in.

While Chu Luo was eating breakfast, he reported, “Madam, this morning, the Countess of Adrian and Duchess of Arbang sent someone to send you an invitation to have afternoon tea.”

Before Chu Luo could speak, Li Yan said, “If you don’t want to go, just reject it.”

Chu Luo nodded and asked, “Since the two neighbors already know that we’re here, the others should also know. When the time comes, we will definitely receive an invitation to a banquet.”

“Mm.”

Not long after Chu Luo said that, the butler picked up a call and said to the two of them, “Master, Madam, the guard called and said that Prince Philip’s residence has sent over an invitation to a banquet.”

Chu Luo looked at Li Yan.

Li Yan: “Accept it. Tell the person who sent the invitation that Madam and I will attend on time tonight.”

“Yes.”

The butler turned around and left.

Only then did Chu Luo ask, “I checked on this Prince Philip yesterday. He seems to be from the Jingoists. Do you think he’s the person we’re looking for?”

“We’ll know if it’s true after we take a look tonight.”

“Mm.”

After Chu Luo finished eating, the two of them sat on the sofa.

Li Yan quickly typed on his laptop while Chu Luo sat beside him and replied to text messages.

The messages were all sent by France at night (during the day in the empire). Chu Luo replied to some of them and planned to reply to the rest when she returned tonight.

After lunch, Li Yan said to Chu Luo, “If you have nothing to do in the afternoon, you can go to the manor to play. There’s an orchid and farm behind. There should be many ripe fruits inside.”

Chu Luo knew that he was worried that she would be bored, so she smiled and said, “Got it. Coincidentally, I heard from the butler that there’s a river in our villa. That river is frozen Someone will go over to smash the ice to fish in the afternoon. I’ll go take a look.”

an.

“Okay.” Li Yan touched her face and reminded her, “Put on your cloak when you go out. Don’t be cold.”

Chu Luo looked up at him and nodded sweetly. “Mm.”

After Li Yan left, Chu Luo put on a cloak and an umbrella and walked out of the small villa.

The butler was already waiting for her. Beside the butler stood a young and beautiful woman.

The butler introduced her to Chu Luo. “Madam, this is my daughter, Lina. Where are you going later? You can get her to bring you there.”

Lina quickly greeted Chu Luo, “Hello, Madam.”

Chu Luo nodded at her and the three of them walked towards the villa at the back.

The aristocratic residences here were big to begin with, and since Li Yan had bought a prince’s residence, it was even bigger.

The three of them walked for a while before walking out of the villa district in front and arriving at the garden at the back.

As the butler walked, he told Chu Luo what was in the garden and what was planted in each season.

Lina also said, “There are not only many fruits in the manor throughout the year, but there are also many flowers. If you like, I’ll help you pluck some later.”

“Mm, sure.”

Lina smiled happily.

The three of them walked for about half an hour before arriving at the river the butler had mentioned.

The river passed by the manor from outside. It was at least seven to eight meters wide.

This side of the river was the fruit garden, and opposite was the farm.

There was a bridge every few hundred meters on the river.

Indeed, the river had frozen.

When the three of them walked over, a few people were already smashing ice to fish on the river.

After they smashed a hole in the ice, the person holding the fishing net scooped into the ice cave and pulled out many fish.

Chu Luo looked at it for a while before shifting her gaze to other places. She asked the butler, “Since this river leads in from outside, will someone from outside secretly slip in after the ice forms?”

“Madam, don’t worry. There are guards at both exits of the river. There are also protective nets inside the river. Outsiders can’t enter.”

Chu Luo nodded. After watching them catch fish for a while, she said to the butler, “Butler, if you have something to attend to, go ahead.”

“Okay, Madam.” The butler also had his own thoughts. He wanted his daughter to perform in front of Chu Luo, so he instructed Lina, “Serve Madam well.”

After Lina responded, the butler left.

As soon as the butler left, Lina said to Chu Luo, “Madam, I’ll take you elsewhere. There are many interesting places in the backyard.”

“Oh? What’s interesting?”

Lina pointed to the left. “Madam, look. At the end of this path is the greenhouse. There are many gorgeous flowers planted inside.”

Chu Luo wasn’t very interested in ordinary flowers and plants.

Lina could tell what Chu Luo was thinking. Thinking about how Madam liked herbs, she said, “The greenhouse isn’t far away. It’s the common wall between the Li residence and the Duke of Arbang’s residence. The Duke of Arbang’s family also planted many flowers there, but the flowers and plants their family planted are a little different from ours. I heard from Lisa that their garden is filled with herbs.”

Chu Luo was a little surprised. “Does the duke’s family know Chinese medicine?”

Lina shook her head. “I don’t know about that.”

Chu Luo thought for a while and said to her, “Take me over to take a look.”

“Okay, Madam, please follow me.” The two of them walked to the wall of the two families. Chu Luo stood under the two-meter-tall wall and smelled it with her nose. Soon, she detected the scent of a few herbs.

Lina didn’t know what Chu Luo was doing, so she asked, “Madam, you can’t see even if you stand here. Why don’t I find a ladder for you? You can go up the wall and take a look.”

Hearing this, Chu Luo tilted her head and glanced at her.

Lina twisted her clothes nervously. “Madam, did I say something wrong?”

“No. Go help me find a ladder.”

“Okay.”

Chu Luo waited for Lina to turn around and go to the greenhouse, before lifting her toes and jumping onto the wall. The garden filled with herbs on the other side of the wall surprised Chu Luo.

At this moment, a few people walked over. Chu Luo jumped back when those people discovered her.
