Chapter 63

When Chu Luo arrived at the hall, the engagement party had yet to start.

At this moment, the banquet hall was filled with the smell of fresh flowers and champagne. A violinist was standing in the corner, playing the most romantic melody.

Under the magnificent crystal palace lights, with her arm hooked around a man in a customized suit, a woman in a beautiful gown walked towards the heads of the Wei and Bai families with a glass of wine in her hand and expressed her congratulations.

The young people were gathered on the other side, and laughter rang from there from time to time.

“Luoluo, over here. Come over quickly.”

Wei Xueying saw Chu Luo and waved at her from where the youngsters were.

Chu Luo walked over, and a flirtatious man glanced at her before asking Wei Xueying with interest, “Xueying, since when did your family have such a beautiful girl?”

“Zhang Wenjun, stop being such a flirt,” Wei Xueying warned him before introducing Chu Luo to everyone. “This is my little cousin, Tingting’s younger sister, Luoluo.”

The moment Wei Xueying introduced her, everyone subconsciously sized up Chu Luo and Chu Ting.

During this period of time, Chu Ting had become extremely thin. However, she knew how to do makeup, dress herself, and present clothes, so she still looked pretty.

However, compared to Chu Luo, who was becoming increasingly beautiful and exquisite with her rosy cheeks… there was simply no comparison.

A loud murmur came from the side. “Didn’t Xueying say that they are twin sisters? Why do I feel that the younger sister is much prettier than the older sister?”

Although the others didn’t say anything, they all seemed to agree with the statement.

Chu Luo looked at Chu Ting, who was so angry that her face was almost twisted. Her hand that was wearing the bracelet moved, suppressing the restless Gu worm in Chu Ting’s body.

She didn’t say anything and just stood there quietly.

However, Chu Ting couldn’t stand being compared like this, especially since she couldn’t win against Chu Luo. Feigning a pained look, she said, “My sister is indeed beautiful, but it’s a pity that she has such a long scar on her forehead.”

After saying that, she even gestured with her hand. “It’s really scary.”

Everyone subconsciously looked at Chu Luo’s forehead, which was covered by her fringe.

Chu Luo widened her big eyes and looked at everyone. She asked calmly, “Do you want to take a look?”

Those who could attend the Wei family banquet were all young masters and young mistresses from the upper-class society. Regardless of how everyone was in private, during such an occasion, everyone placed great emphasis on upbringing.

So a girl about her age smiled and said, “What’s there to see? The plastic surgery industry is so advanced now. You can just have the scar removed when the time comes.”

As the girl spoke, she deliberately asked, “Why did you keep a scar on your forehead? Why didn’t you go to the hospital to have it removed?”

Chu Luo looked at Chu Ting and said calmly, “You have to ask my good sister.”

Chu Ting glared at Chu Luo viciously.

Everyone subconsciously looked over, and Chu Ting didn’t have time to retract her gaze.

Everyone started imagining things.

…

The atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.

At this moment, Wei Wushuang said, “Big Brother and Sister Bai’s engagement ceremony is about to commence soon. Let’s go over first.”

Just as Wei Wushuang finished speaking, the voice of the emcee came from the front.

“Dear guests, our Young Master Wei and Miss Bai’s engagement ceremony is about to start. Please come over here.”

Everyone walked over excitedly.

Only Chu Luo and Chu Ting didn’t move.

After everyone had left, Chu Luo approached Chu Ting and looked down at her.

Chu Ting glared at her fiercely and sneered. “Chu Luo, there are so many people here. Mommy is always on my side. If you dare to do anything to me, see if Mommy won’t deal with you.”

“Chu Ting,” Chu Luo said coldly. “Are you feeling very smug now?”

Chu Ting raised her chin. “So what if I am? You…”

“You think that after the Gu worm in your body was transferred to me, the one waiting to die is now me, right?”

“How did you know!” Chu Ting’s voice suddenly rose as she jumped up from the sofa.

However, in the next second, she felt her vision darken and she fell back heavily.

Chu Luo looked at her pale face and suddenly smiled. “Didn’t your good mother tell you that Eldest Uncle has already sent people to invite back Master Xiang?”

“Impossible!”

Chu Ting only felt a sense of panic in her chest, as though her body was about to be eaten by worms. At this moment, a crisp sound could be heard in her ears, and after the sound, that feeling disappeared.

This made her certain that her Gu worm had really been transferred to Chu Luo’s body.

After confirming this, she stood up and ran towards Wei Wei.

She wanted her mother to stop Eldest Uncle from inviting the Master back to operate on Chu Luo. She and Chu Luo couldn’t co-exist.

As she looked at the fleeing Chu Ting, Chu Luo’s cold sneer widened.

“They say that demons are terrifying, but they don’t know that the most terrifying thing is the human heart… Since you guys are so ruthless, don’t blame me for sending you to hell.”

After the engagement ceremony ended, the music started playing. Everyone automatically made way to free up space. The newly engaged couple started the opening dance, and soon, many pairs of youngsters joined in.

At this moment, Chu Luo turned around and walked towards the back.

Not long after, she heard footsteps behind her.

The footsteps were very soft, so soft that one couldn’t hear them if they didn’t pay attention.

Chu Luo didn’t turn around. Instead, she continued walking towards the end of the corridor.

The footsteps followed at a moderate pace.

Until Chu Luo walked out the back door and arrived at the back garden.

The footsteps suddenly caught up to her.

“Luoluo.” A gentle voice sounded behind her.

Chu Luo turned around abruptly as if she had just discovered someone behind her.

Chu Luo looked at Cui Xudong, who looked like a decent human being dressed in a customized suit and smiling warmly at her. She asked unhappily, “Why are you following me?”

Cui Xudong still had that harmless smile on his face, but there was a glint of determination in his eyes. His tone was extremely gentle. “Didn’t I say last time that I knew something about your Chu family? Are you really not curious at all?”

“No…”

“Shh… Don’t answer so quickly. I heard that your mother and sister don’t like you very much, Luoluo. Have you never thought that they might not be your biological mother or sister?”

When Chu Luo heard this, she subconsciously narrowed her eyes.

When he saw her reaction, Cui Xudong’s smile widened. “Looks like you’re suspecting this too.”

Chu Luo asked, “What else do you know?”

Cui Xudong coaxed, “This isn’t a good place to talk. Why don’t we talk somewhere remote?”

A glint flickered across Chu Luo’s eyes and she agreed. “Sure.”

She then brought him to the back door.

The two of them arrived at a rockery near the back door. Chu Luo stopped.

“You can speak now.”

After saying that, she prepared to tap the acupoints of Cui Xudong, who was about to quietly knock her unconscious. Just then, a tall figure bounced off the courtyard wall.

In the next moment, that figure tapped Cui Xudong’s acupoint first.

Chu Luo looked at the masked man who suddenly appeared and was stunned for a moment. In the next second, she snapped in a displeased tone, “How dare you touch the person I want to deal with! Do you want to die?!”

After saying that, she quickly attacked him.
