Seeing that familiar face, Chu Xianmin almost jumped out of her chair in shock!
It turns out that Chu Liuyue is really back!
How can this be
Song Lian and the other two are not weak in strength, and it is absolutely a piece of cake to deal with a mere Chu Liuyue.
Everything was arranged perfectly, but now Chu Liuyue actually...
"Yue'er!"
When Chu Ning saw her daughter coming back, she immediately rushed over nervously:
"Yue'er, how are you?"
Seeing Chu Ning's worried eyes, Chu Liuyue felt warm in her heart.
She could feel that Chu Ning really loved and cared for her daughter, even though she was a loser, but this father's love for his child was not lacking at all.
It's a pity that the real Chu Liuyue is already dead.
Chu Liuyue patted the back of Chu Ning's hand and gave him a reassuring smile.
"Dad, don't worry, Yue'er is fine."
When Chu Ning heard what she said, she didn't believe it at first, but seeing that she seemed to be unhurt, a stone fell in her heart.
Somehow, looking at the smile on his daughter's face, he felt that something was different about Yue'er.
In the past, Yue'er was always weak and timid, but now, in those dark and bright eyes, there seemed to be stars, bright and bright!
"Sister! You are back! Minmin is so worried about you!"
Chu Liuyue raised her eyes and saw that Chu Xianmin was looking at her with "joy" on her face, as if she was very happy.
Worry
Chu Liuyue sneered in her heart, Chu Xianmin was probably really worried when he saw her coming back!
"Oh? So the third sister is worried about me? But just now outside, I seemed to hear the third sister accusing me of stealing your pocket money?"
Chu Liuyue spoke unhurriedly.
Cold sweat broke out on Chu Xianmin's back.
What’s going on with this Chu Liuyue!
Not only did she not die outside, but she seemed to have become a little different! How dare you ask such a question in public!
"Sister, you misunderstood. I just felt that it was getting late and my sister never came back. I felt uneasy, so I asked the great elder to ask..."
At this point, her eyes filled with tears again.
"After all...my sister doesn't have a trace of the force in her body. If someone bullies her when she goes out...my sister will really blame herself to death!"
This is a deliberate attempt to ridicule her for being a loser and unable to practice!
If it were Chu Liuyue in the past, she would probably really think that Chu Xianmin was worried about her, but now that Chu Liuyue has changed her mind, how could she still be confused by such unscrupulous methods
Chu Xianmin is the most talented among the younger generation of the Chu family. What she said will only make people feel that Chu Liuyue is useless and even going out is troublesome!
Sure enough, the great elder's eyes immediately became filled with disgust, and he angrily said:
"When you come back so late today, who knows what you did outside! If you can't even do such a small thing, don't go out again, so as not to embarrass my Chu family! Trash!"
Chu Ning's expression suddenly turned cold. He took a step forward and protected Chu Liuyue behind him. He clenched his fists tightly and forced himself to hold back:
"Great Elder, Yue'er is still a child, are you saying that too much?"
Although he is no better than before, he cannot let others bully his daughter like this!
Looking at the tall figure standing in front of her, Chu Liuyue was startled, and her eyes were actually a little sour.
In her previous life, she was born as the Destiny Emperor, with a noble status and powerful strength. She had always been responsible for everything on her own. This feeling of being cared for by others was too unfamiliar and too precious to her.
This time, no matter what, she will do her best to protect everyone who truly loves her!
"Daddy."
Chu Liuyue gently pulled him and took a step forward.
Chu Ning looked at her, expecting that she would be as cowardly as she had been countless times before, but what she saw was a pair of calm eyes.
The thin figure straightened his back, raised his chin slightly, and had an indescribable aura all over his body.
"Don't worry, Great Elder. Everything you need to buy is not missing. It has been sent to the warehouse now. If you don't believe it, you can go check it out. As for why I came back so late today... doesn't Third Sister know best?"
"Sister! What are you talking about!?"
When Chu Xianmin heard this, she immediately panicked and her tone became much colder.
Could it be that Chu Liuyue had already guessed that Song Lian and the others were sent by her? !
Chu Liuyue glanced at her with a half-smile, and asked in surprise:
"Didn't Third Sister give me money and ask me to buy things for you?"
Chu Xianmin choked suddenly!
There is no such thing!
But—that’s what she just said to the Great Elder and Chu Ning!
She originally planned to take the opportunity to frame her, but she didn't expect that Chu Liuyue would go along with the situation!
Chu Liuyue stretched out her hand, and a pomegranate-shaped jade pendant lay quietly in her palm.
"Third sister, because the money you gave me is not enough, I have left your other Huayue Pomegranate Jade Pendant as a token in the Treasure Pavilion. I will only send the remaining money tomorrow. "
That jade pendant was brought as a dowry by Chu Xianmin’s mother. It was very precious because of its exquisite appearance and ability to warm and nourish the body. There was no second pair in the entire imperial capital. Chu Xianmin also liked the jade pendant very much and often carried it with her. .
Because of this, everyone can confirm that it is indeed Chu Xianmin's thing!
When the great elder heard this, he looked at Chu Xianmin suspiciously.
"Minmin, is what she said true?"
She treasured this jade pendant very much. If she didn't give it away voluntarily, it would be difficult for others to get it.
It would be fine if he bought other things, but the Treasure Pavilion is the most luxurious place in the entire imperial capital! The things inside are all top-quality treasures, and all of them are valuable!
Although the Chu family is also an imperial family, it has gradually declined in recent years and is often not as prosperous as it seems on the surface.
Even though he was the eldest elder of the Chu family, he couldn't squander money in a place like Zhenbao Pavilion.
Chu Xianmin gritted her teeth secretly.
She had taken it out deliberately to make everyone believe that Chu Liuyue had stolen something and escaped. Unexpectedly...
"Yes... I fell in love with an object in the Treasure Pavilion, but I have been busy practicing recently and have no time to go out, so I asked my sister to help..."
In this situation, you have to admit it even if you don’t admit it!
Although the things in Zhenbao Pavilion are expensive, she can still afford two of them.
When we go back and find out the situation of Song Lian and the others, it won’t be too late to deal with Chu Liuyue!
Hearing her mention cultivation, the Great Elder's expression softened a lot and he said warmly:
"What's the point? You are the most outstanding young talent of our Chu family. Just say whatever you want!"
Chu Xianmin smiled sweetly:
"Thank you, Great Elder, for your kindness!"
Chu Liuyue sneered in her heart.
How can it be so easy to just fool around with it
She can't completely confront Chu Xianmin right now, but it's absolutely impossible for her to suffer silently like this!
"So, does the First Elder plan to help Third Sister with the remaining money from the public account?"
Chu Liuyue asked curiously.
The Great Elder and Chu Xianmin were both stunned, and then hesitated.
The rules of the Chu family are strict, and everyone's monthly salary is distributed according to their rank. If the money is really openly taken for Chu Xianmin, others will inevitably be dissatisfied.
"This is Minmin's business. Minmin should be responsible for it herself!"
Naturally, Chu Xianmin couldn't ruin her reputation over the years, so she took over the matter immediately.
Although the things in Zhenbao Pavilion are expensive, she has always been favored and has saved a lot of money. Spending several thousand taels of silver on one or two items is not a big problem.
As she spoke, she looked at Chu Liuyue with a smile, showing a generous, gentle and noble look:
"Sister, you can just pick up the baby tomorrow, right?"
Chu Liuyue nodded, a cunning light flashing in his eyes.
"Yes, I have already given all the one thousand taels you gave me to Zhenbao Pavilion. Tomorrow, as long as the third sister pays the remaining one hundred and ninety-nine thousand taels, it will be fine."
Chu Xianmin thought she heard wrongly and subconsciously screamed:
"What!?"
