Chapter 69: You’d Better Not Regret It
Wei Wei’s expression turned stern as she said harshly, “How could he not know? He only stopped appearing in front of you because he knew.”
Actually, she had made up some excuse to divert Chu Zhengyang away from the house early in the morning.
The mocking sneer on Chu Luo’s face widened. “You guys are really going to great lengths to prevent the Gu worm from being transferred from my body.”
After saying this, she calmly took the bank card from Wei Wei’s hands under her intense gaze. She turned around, packed up a few clothes, and placed them in her school bag before carrying the bag out of the house.
Wei Wei blocked the way to the front door. “Hand me your phone and use the back door.”
She was chasing Chu Luo away behind other people’s backs. She definitely couldn’t let others find out. Neither would she let Chu Zhengyang find her.
Chu Luo didn’t say anything. She took out her phone and handed it to her before turning around to walk towards the back door.
After taking a few steps, she suddenly turned around and smiled at her. “You’d better not regret it.”
With that, she strode away.
“Hmph! As if I will regret it!”
Wei Wei glared at her back. “I’ve wanted to strangle you to death from the first day I saw you.”
After Chu Luo walked out of the back door, Chu Ting emerged from a corner and couldn’t resist curling her lips as she complained, “Mommy, why did you give her money?”
She couldn’t wait for Chu Luo to be left penniless on the streets.
Wei Wei looked exasperated. “Who knew that wretched girl would accept the card?”
After saying that, she seemed to have thought of something and sneered. “I’ll call the bank later and report that card lost.”
Chu Ting felt that her mother was too smart and hurriedly nodded in agreement. However, she was still worried and asked, “Mommy, is Chu Luo really not your biological daughter?”
Wei Wei’s face was filled with hatred. “Of course not. She’s a jinx. It’s because of her… that something nearly happened to you back then. If not for her, you wouldn’t have injured your core and never…” At this point, she suddenly stopped talking.
Chu Ting didn’t mind it. Having heard what she wanted to hear, she felt relieved. She planned to tell everyone that Chu Luo wasn’t her sister.
In her heart, she thought maliciously,
‘There is Gu poison in Chu Luo’s body. Not long after she leaves, the Gu worm will definitely act up. At that time, she will be able to experience the pain of being tortured by a Gu worm.’
When Chu Luo walked out, the chauffeur Li Yan had sent was already waiting there.
The chauffeur alighted and opened the car door for her. “Miss Chu, please.”
Chu Luo got into the car and checked the name of the place where houses were sold. She said to the chauffeur, “Let’s go to the real estate agent first.”
The chauffeur didn’t agree immediately. Instead, he reported through his communicator before asking her, “I wonder what kind of house Miss Chu would like to buy?”
Chu Luo thought for a moment before saying, “Quiet, big. It’s best if the layout inside is in the ancient style.”
Even though she tried her best to adapt to this world, Chu Luo still didn’t like the buildings here.
The chauffeur thought for a moment and drove to a real estate agent for courtyard houses in the capital.
Chu Luo didn’t know what the real estate agents here were, so she didn’t know that the chauffeur had brought her to the most famous real estate agency in the capital.
At this moment, there were a few extraordinary-looking guests inside.
The salesperson was currently introducing all kinds of villas to the customers.
When Chu Luo entered, everyone looked at her at the same time. They all treated her as a curious little girl who had come in to play. No one paid any attention to her.
Chu Luo didn’t mind. She walked over to look at the villa models displayed inside.
The villas were all huge, but they weren’t her type. She looked around and wanted to ask someone, but at this moment, a middle-aged man rushed in from outside.
This middle-aged man was dressed appropriately and had a refined appearance. He had a scholarly temperament, but his expression was bad. It was obvious that he had not rested well and had suffered a fright. At this moment, his face was filled with anger and haggardness.
Chu Luo realized that when the middle-aged man walked in, the expressions of the salespeople changed at the same time.
The manager quickly strode over and seemed to be smiling, but he stopped him from continuing inside. “Mr. Wu, didn’t we say that we would handle your matter as soon as possible?”
“Handle the matter as soon as possible!” When Mr. Wu heard this, his eyes burned with anger. It was obvious that he couldn’t tolerate it anymore. “There’s something wrong with the villa you sold to me. I’ve already come here several times to tell you. In what way are you dealing with it!
“Every time, I’m told to go back and wait for news. Do you know that if I stay in that villa for a few more days, my entire family will die?”
One couldn’t help but ask, “What happened in that villa?”
Everyone in the hall looked at him curiously.
When the manager heard this, his expression changed several times. However, he maintained a smile on his face as he reached out to pull the man’s arm and said, “Mr. Wu, look, I have guests here. I hope you won’t spout nonsense and make groundless claims.”
“Make groundless claims!” Mr. Wu sneered. “I think you’re planning to brush me off again. You must resolve the matter regarding that villa today. Otherwise, I’ll see you in court.”
When the manager heard this, the smile on his face finally disappeared. “Mr. Wu, let’s just stick to the facts. That villa was chosen by you. When I was selling that villa, I did tell you to think it through. You were the one who insisted on buying it.”
“Yes! You did persuade me, but you only said that the villa was a little remote. Coincidentally, my daughter’s health isn’t good and she needs that kind of villa to recuperate, but you didn’t say that there was something dirty inside!”
As Mr. Wu spoke, his eyes turned red.
Standing on the left were an old man and two middle-aged people. One of the middle-aged people couldn’t help but ask, “Since Mr. Wu feels that the villa is dirty, why don’t you just sell it and move away?”
When Mr. Wu heard this, his eyes turned even redder. “I want to move too, but what’s more sinister is that whenever I have this thought, my wife will fall severely ill. Moreover, my daughter… my daughter…”
Mr. Wu obviously couldn’t continue.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he subconsciously turned to look at the old man.
The old man frowned and asked after some thought, “What’s wrong with your daughter after she moved in?”
Mr. Wu’s lips kept trembling, but he couldn’t say anything.
The old man frowned even more tightly. “If Mr. Wu trusts me, can you let me take a look?”
Mr. Wu’s eyes lit up. “Old Sir, are you a master?”
The old man said humbly, “Not really, but I do know a little about how to deal with that kind of stuff.”
Mr. Wu looked at the old man with an even more fervent gaze. He said, “As long as Master has a way to let us move out of that villa while ensuring the safety of my family, you can ask for anything you want, Master.”
With the demeanor of an expert, the master said, “Let’s resolve the problem of Mr. Wu’s house first.”
“Okay, okay, okay. Master, please.”
As they spoke, they walked out of the door.
The manager standing there was a little anxious. How could he be willing to let the big client leave for no reason when the deal was very nearly sealed just a moment ago? He followed them out.
Chu Luo was also a little curious about what that thing was and followed suit.
