Chapter 366: Stealing chicken but losing rice
Su Fengjun left and did not return for a long time until the end of the school term.
As the sun began to set, it painted the horizon a deep red. Zhongli Yueluo rubbed her shoulders; by evening, the chill had intensified.
Fortunately, Su Fengling had already transferred the curse at Liu Ling's door to her room. Tonight, she'll have to suffer again.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on her lips.
The rest of the people gradually left, chatting and laughing with their neighbors in the same courtyard, building good relationships.
Chang Yuxuan, with his seemingly carefree personality, naturally went to Zhongli Yueluo's side and tried to pull her back.
She stared at Su Fengjun without any hesitation: "Brother Fengjun, I'll take your Yueluo wife with me first."
Su Fengjun held Zhongli Yueluo's hand, neither moving forward nor backward.
They are still unsure which side Chang Yuxuanyuan is on.
She seemed to always be smiling at everyone. Unlike her brother, there was something else mixed in with her innocence.
Zhongli Yueluo released Su Fengjun's hand and took Chang Yuxuanyuan's arm, the chill creeping straight up to her shoulder.
Yet she maintained that charming smile, her hand remaining perfectly still, even though she felt that lump had become numb.
The two walked along the path, while the people following behind them whispered among themselves.
"Yue Luo's identity is a real mystery, and the Changyu clan seems to favor her quite a bit."
"Yes, look at those young masters from those clans, they all seem to have a good impression of him."
"Yes, yes, and look at the young master of the Su family who is with him, he is simply incomparably handsome."
Zhongli Yueluo wasn't deaf; even if they spoke in hushed tones, she could still hear them.
"You may covet the sons of other clans, but the Su clan's sons are my people."
Zhongli Yueluo's gaze was somewhat cold, and coupled with the chill emanating from her, she seemed truly unapproachable.
"It seems you prefer your two unmarried husbands, Yue Luo. My poor brother seems to have fallen in love with you at first sight."
Chang Yuxuan smiled, subtly withdrawing his hand and patting her shoulder.
"So Miss Xuanyuan doesn't like me anymore?"
Zhongli Yueluo joked and teased her, and the two really looked like close girlfriends.
"I love it, I love it so much!"
She could see that Zhongli Yueluo's eyes were full of scheming, but she was also scheming against her.
Qianqiu Changhuan returned to the courtyard before them and sat in her room with the door open.
Her room was directly across from Liu Ling's, next to Chang Yu Xuan Yuan, and next to Chang Yu Xuan Yuan was Zhong Li Yue Luo.
She was waiting for everyone to return so the show could begin, and even instructed the people guarding outside to call everyone over as soon as they heard any noise.
Liu Lingwan returned a little later, but Zhongli Yueluo and Changyu Xuanyuan had not yet arrived.
She had just returned and was about to go back to her room when Qianqiu Changhuan noticed that the main character was not there, so she quickly called out to Liu Ling.
"Miss Liu, why don't we have a cup of tea together in the courtyard?"
Liu Ling became suspicious. How could young ladies who grew up in secluded mansions not know the intricacies of the situation?
However, due to the pressure of power, she still nodded: "Miss Qianqiu is too kind."
"If we're talking about tea, then I should be the one to brew it for Miss Qianqiu, as a way of thanking her for her instruction today."
"Calling me Miss Qianqiu is too formal. Just call me Changhuan."
"Then Miss Changhuan can also address me by my name."
The two were in the courtyard, exchanging pleasantries, but they couldn't quite get to the point.
Every time Liu Ling wanted to go back to her room, Qianqiu Changhuan would stop her.
Anyone with a modicum of common sense, even a fool, would know that there's definitely something fishy going on.
Qianqiu Changhuan kept looking towards the door, wondering why the two of them hadn't returned yet.
Finally, the two were seen with their arms around each other's shoulders, looking quite happy.
Although Chang Yuxuanyuan had a forced smile on his face, Zhongli Yueluo's smile was genuine.
Then, meeting the gazes of the two people in the courtyard, he thought to himself that the show was about to begin.
"It will be very lively when everyone lives in the same courtyard."
Zhongli Yueluo sat down between the two of them, and they both felt a little awkward.
Qianqiu Changhuan couldn't understand why Zhongli Yueluo could walk up to her so calmly.
They should have been enemies, but she didn't take her seriously at all.
"What kind of good tea are you drinking? Oh, Miss Liu, I heard that you have a spiritual tea garden that produces very good tea."
Liu Ling saw Zhongli Yuelu wink at him, but he didn't know what the signal was.
But she did bring the tea, intending to drink it with the people in the same courtyard and connect with them.
But I never expected that I would end up living with them.
“I just happened to bring some from home, how about the four of us enjoy some together tonight?”
With her eyes crinkling and her smile appearing exceptionally innocent, Qianqiu Changhuan walked towards the door, a triumphant smile already on her face.
She imagined that when Liu Ling pushed open the door, the water lily would pour down, and countless water needles would pierce her body.
Although he won't die, he'll lose at least a hundred years' worth of magical power.
In order to severely damage Zhongli Yueluo, she did not hesitate to sacrifice others, and in her eyes, Liu Ling's life was of no importance.
The door creaked open, and her heart pounded. She was even ready to immediately open the barrier.
However, nothing happened in the room, and everything was in perfect order.
She exhaled, walked to the shelf, took out the tea leaves, and thought that someone was plotting against her.
The result is not.
Qianqiu Changhuan's nails were so tense that they dug into her flesh, and her knuckles turned white.
Nothing as expected happened. Her spell was working properly, so why didn't the water curtain pour down?
Her tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and the smile on her face became fake. Why!
Seeing the disappointment on her face, Zhongli Yueluo stood up.
"Just drinking tea isn't fun, so I brought some pastries with me. I'll take them out and we can all eat them together."
The scheme of Qianqiu Changhuan failed, and Zhongli Yueluo's scheme began.
He swallowed hard as he approached the door, and the chill emanating from him made her tremble even more.
The annotation here expresses extreme hatred for her evil.
You can create a protective barrier for your body in advance to prevent injury, although injuries to your hands and feet are one thing.
It's not pitiful; how could she have become the target of public criticism?
Protecting his vital parts, he pushed the door open, and a premeditated scream of "Ah!" echoed throughout the courtyard.
The three people outside the courtyard stared at Zhongli Yueluo's door. Changyu Xuanyuan was also shocked. What exactly happened?
Qianqiu Changhuan panicked. She clearly remembered that the spell was cast on Liu Ling's house.
Then she laughed again; the letter inside contained his own scent, so she couldn't be blamed for it.
I didn't know how badly she was injured, but I still pretended to be concerned and went to check on her.
"Miss Yueluo, what's wrong!"
The three of them stood up from their seats and headed towards her room, while those outside thought they had heard a signal from Qianqiu Changhuan.
