Chapter 37: Breaking News
If her mind was also clouded, that would make sense.
But precisely because of this, he felt even more terrified: "What kind of monster is Chu Ling'er?"
Chu Ci didn't know that his various actions after traveling through time had caused Chu Junyi to misunderstand him. However, this could be considered a blessing in disguise.
As for Chu Ling'er's strange behavior, Chu Ci said, "I don't know."
Chu Junyi was almost choked to death by these three words. He felt slightly disappointed.
But for some reason, he always felt that Chu Ci would be able to find a way. But he also prepared for the worst: "Just in case, just in case, could you please help me out for the sake of our blood relationship?"
Chu Junyi spoke word by word.
Although Chu Junyi was indeed a bad person before, and once something started, she might really be entangled with the Chu family. But the original owner should have longed for family affection in her heart, and Chu Ci seemed to have softened her heart.
However, if he agreed directly, he would feel a little uncomfortable, so he deliberately asked: "What's in it for me?"
Being asked this question was nothing short of humiliating. Chu Junyi smiled faintly, "Are Chu Ling'er's biological parents coming?"
They had already made preparations, and it was related to Chu Ling'er. Chu Ci was slightly startled, "It's coming. Are we going to Yazhou together? Big sister, Qianxue, Qianyan, do you all know about this?"
The three of them looked grim, "I know."
Chu Ci was wary in his heart, but his face didn't show it at all. "Wouldn't this be great? It would reduce contact. Maybe the Chu family's brains would return to normal?"
Chu Junyi nodded, then shook his head. He said nothing more, just staring from afar, like a brother tolerating his playful sister.
Li Yanran saw this and was so angry that her heart ached. "How could the boss be so shallow? Just a few meals of meat and he rushed to please that stinky girl."
A few meals of meat, that's easy to say. If you have the ability, go get it yourself. So, even though the other people in the Chu family were also dissatisfied with Chu Junyi's behavior, no one spoke up to agree.
This made Li Yanran even more dissatisfied. She opened her mouth to curse, but was stopped by Chu Ling'er. "Mother, my eldest brother is also doing this for his own family."
It was a simple provocation, but it could easily provoke the Chu family's anger. "Old Five, go call your eldest brother back." Chu Xiaxiong ordered immediately.
Chu Junjie didn't want to provoke his moody elder brother, but he was more afraid of his father. Helplessly, he could only walk towards Chu Ci with heavy steps.
Just then, the first batch of pork jerky came out of the oven, and the rich aroma of meat filled the air, making everyone's mouth water. Not to mention Chu Junjie, a naughty child, even the younger members of the Fan family seemed to be drooling uncontrollably.
Qian Chuanzi and his men rushed over and asked, "Young Madam, can we eat now?"
"It's better to wait, but it's okay to eat it now." Chu Ci said as he used scissors to cut the whole piece of jerky into pieces, and everyone present had a share.
“Fragrant”, “Delicious”, “Tender and chewy”.
"Is this really pork?" Qian Chuanzi had hunted wild boar before. It was fishy and smelly, and the smell of it when cooked was unbearable. Now, he almost didn't recognize the word pork.
Chu Ci smiled without saying anything, and simply threw the scissors away, leaving everyone to fend for themselves. Everyone had long been accustomed to Chu Ci's casualness, and they could fend for themselves.
Seeing this, Chu Junjie, the naughty kid, took advantage of the situation and refused to leave. Chu Junyi glared at him several times, and the naughty kid rolled his eyes and leaned over. "Brother, I'll help you keep an eye on Chu Ling'er from now on, don't chase me away."
Chu Junyi couldn't make up her mind, so she turned to look at Chu Ci, who nodded in agreement. "You can stay, but I don't want to keep idle people here."
"I'll go light the fire." Chu Junjie looked unusually attentive.
Not only did they fail to call their eldest son back, but they also lost their younger son. Chu Xiaxiong and his wife felt incredibly frustrated and wanted to explode, but then they remembered the cold, ruthless look their eldest son had given them. "Forget it, let them be! After all, they are blood relatives."
Little did he know, in Chu Ling'er's eyes, it had changed. "Even though they are blood relatives, I am still an outsider. If that's the case, then there is no need to worry anymore."
Chu Ling'er's gaze gradually became deep. If you look closely, you can see a faint blue light flashing in her eyes.
At the same time, Chu Ci, who was acting as a living cook, suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest. Her face turned pale in an instant. "Fan Jingrui..."
"My lady, I'm here." Fan Jingrui had been standing not far from Chu Ci, and naturally he noticed her strange behavior. As soon as Chu Ci finished speaking, he rushed to her side almost instantly.
"Chu Ling'er, knock her out." Chu Ci fainted from the pain. Everything happened so suddenly that before anyone could understand what was happening, they saw Fan Jingrui walking angrily towards the Chu family.
Only the two sisters Qianxue and Qianyan, who were nearby, saw that even though Chu Ci had fainted, his body was still trembling slightly, perhaps because the pain was too severe.
"Brother—" Fan Qilin, who was closest to him, wanted to stop him, but seeing Fan Jingrui's warning look, he immediately backed off. Fan Jingrui stepped forward and successfully dragged Chu Ling'er in front of everyone.
"Ah, her eyes—"
"Monster, Chu Ling'er is a monster."
Fan Jingrui was also surprised, but he didn't care about anything else and knocked Chu Ling'er unconscious with a single blow of his hand.
Almost at the same time, Chu Ci's body returned to normal. Although she was still not awake, she had stopped shaking.
Everyone was not stupid and took several steps back.
Even Chu Junhan, who always protected Chu Ling'er, was trembling slightly. Chu Junyi sneered, walked forward, and whispered in his ear, "Are you scared?"
A guilty look flashed in Chu Junhan's eyes, "No, no."
He's really stubborn and stubborn. I'm afraid no one in this world can compare to him. Chu Junyi didn't want to argue with him, but she didn't expect that even at this point, Chu Junhan was still firmly defending Chu Ling'er. "Brother, Ling'er must have been framed."
Chu Junyi was too lazy to argue with his confused brother, "Then go check it out!"
"I will." Chu Junhan, not knowing his own limitations, deliberately shouted back. "Not only will I find out why that person framed Ling'er, but I'll also make him suffer the consequences."
Haha, the toad is yawning - what a loud tone.
This time, it wasn't just Chu Junyi. Even Li Yanran, who also defended Chu Ling'er, felt that her second son had lost his mind. Would he become a puppet at the mercy of Chu Ling'er?
Li Yanran couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine at the thought of this possibility. "Husband, can that person really help us return to the capital?"
