Chapter 15 - Betrothal Gifts (4)

It was those two?

Murong Yun and Su Liancheng!

Little did Luo Qianqian see that coming, she only felt two auras on the roof, she did not expect it was them.

‘Did they see what I have done to Luo Keer?’

‘Will they suspect me, why I’m a changed person now and stuff?’

“My good sister-in-law, don’t act so defensive, we are on your side.” said Su Liancheng in a fawning way, Luo Qianqian was quite surprised.

Why would a guy like Su Liancheng who carried big weight in court butter her up?

And also this Murong Yun, if her memory served her right, Murong Yun only chose to engage to her because he didn’t care. Why did he care for her so much now?

Little did Luo Qianqian know she had already stuck in Murong Yun’s mind since he met her the other day in that shabby yard. Now she held a even more special position in his heart because he was convinced she was his cure.

In Murong Yun’s eyes, Luo Qianqian was just like her, always seeking revenge for the smallest grievance, good at playing the underdog yet ended up preying on the tiger.

“To what honor do I owe this visit?” asked Luo Qianqian, she was not letting her guard down, she secretly held the Magic Obeying Figures in her hand.

She was not intimated by the General Invincible, not with her “tag-on service” in hand.

“My Brother Eighth has been worried about you, my good sister-in-law, that’s why.” Su Liancheng replied.

Luo Qianqian ignored how Su Liancheng addressed her.

She was torn, she did not want to have anything to do Murong Yun, but she wanted to earn more points.

It turned out that was not a hard decision to make.

The next second, she acted like she was terrified, “Murong Yun, thank God you are here, I am shaking right now.”

Both Murong Yun and Su Liancheng were speechless.

Su Liancheng had a sense of inferiority in front of Luo Qianqian when it came to cheekiness.

Su Liancheng was getting more speechless seeing Murong Yun’s reaction.

Murong Yun approached Luo Qianqian and stroked her on her head, “Aww, don’t worry, I’m here for you.”

Why did Murong Yun talk all gently and affectionately?

What was going on?

Wasn’t his Brother Eighth famous for being cold and isolated? Wasn’t his Brother Eighth famous for being sexually continent? Wasn’t his Brother Eighth famous for being against any physical touch?

Hmm, everything seemed so odd!

Because that was some serious PDA!

‘Brother Eighth, what has gotten to your head?!’

No wonder Murong Yun had been asking Su Liancheng how to get along with girls, it was for Luo Qianqian!

“Brother Eighth, it just occurs to me I have some unattended business, somewhere, somehow. Gotta run!” with that Su Liancheng fled from the PDA scene.

Murong Yun of course was more than happy to see that.

Luo Qianqian, on the other hand, felt a bit uncomfortable.

She flinched due to nervousness.

“Qianqian.” Murong Yun called her gently.

Luo Qianqian raised her head, and she did not realize how close they were standing to each other until now, they could feel each other’s breaths.

“Yes?” she collected herself, luckily she was from the 21st century, otherwise she did not know how to cope with a situation like this.

“Do you mind getting up early tomorrow? I’ll be here to send betrothal gifts myself.”

‘Ah~ that’s why he visits me.’

Luo Qianqian let out a sigh of relief, “Yes, I will.”

She did not expect Murong Yun would take this seriously, she did not have her hope high on the betrothal gifts anyways.

Murong Yun found her more prettier at night, the two were standing so close, soon Murong Yun was panting, he even reached out and grabbed Luo Qianqian’s waist.

Murong Yun stared at Luo Qianqian, his eyes were sparkling.

Murong Yun’s gorgeous face was getting closer and closer, and the way he looked at her was so gentle and affectionate.

Luo Qianqian flushed crimson thinking about the other night when they kissed, she broke free from Murong Yun’s arms, “It’s… it’s getting late, I’d better get some sleep, see you next time, Murong Yun.”

*** door slamming sound***

Luo Qianqian shut the door and was panting behind it, like she had got so many butterflies in her stomach.

Shit, why was she so nervous. What if she could earn some points by kissing him again?

However, she was too shy to open the door.

And on the other side of the door was Murong Yun who was getting this kind of treatment for the first time in his life.

But feeling the warmth of the girl lingering in his hands, he was not mad… …

To return to Luo Keer.

“Mom, I’m dying, why am I itchy all over?!”

Luo Keer was rolling over on her pink bed, she did not even bother to care she was not lady like at all by tossing and rolling on her bed.

She felt so itchy from head to toe, she scratched her skin so hard that countless little wound were left.

The Second Concubine was so worried.

She asked Xiao Cui to tie Luo Keer’s hands in case she scratched her face, Xiao Cui obeyed and she asked with great concern, “What’s going on, are you all right my lady?”

Luo Keer looked like she was too painful to pay attention to Xiao Cui’s question, she just rolled up and forth like a worm to relieve the pain and mumbled, “Mom, it’s so itchy, I’m dying!”

The Second Concubine questioned Xiao Cui desperately, “Where did she go just now? Why is she like this all of a sudden? Was she poisoned? Is this your doing?”

Along with other servant girls, Xiao Cui kowtowed to her and cried, “No, it’s not us, we would not dare to do such a thing!”

Seeing this, the Second Concubine was more riled up, she kicked the servant girl who was near her, “What are you waiting for? Go ask for a doctor!”

“Yes, the Second Concubine, I’m on it now!” answered the girl, and she picked herself up from the ground.

The Second Concubine walked to Luo Keer’s bed and sat next to her, “Don’t worry, my Keer, the doctor is going to be here soon, be a doll, don’t scratch your face!”

Luo Keer’s eyes turned scarlet red due to the pain, she did not care for anything at the moment but a good scratching!

“Ouch!” screamed Xiao Cui, it turned out Luo Keer had broke free the tie and she scratched Xiao Cui who was trying to stop her from scratching herself.

Soon countless new wounds appeared on Luo Keer’s body.

“Keer, quit it! Keer!” screamed the Second Concubine.

“Xiao Cui, knock her out, that’s the best way now!” demanded the Second Concubine.

If she just sat around and watched this, Luo Keer would end up being bleeding all over.

Xiao Cui had no option but obey, she raised her hand and knocked Luo Keer out.
