Master's Little Girl Has Grown Up

Huo Yan casually picked up one of the books and muttered, "This thing seems to be quite strange. Just listening to it makes me feel terrified."    

"Yeah, it's indeed very strange and vicious." Chu Xi took the book from her hand and said, "Don't look at this. Hurry up and eat your breakfast."    

Huo Yan laughed lightly, "Alright."    

Chu Xi continued to read the books. From yesterday to today, she had read more than ten books about Gu poison. It was simply a new world.    

This world was strange and terrifying, but it was also a little exciting, which made her want to explore it.    

After Huo Yan finished her breakfast, she saw that Chu Xi was reading so seriously that she was fascinated. She suddenly asked out of curiosity, "Xiao Xi, is this book that good-looking? Although you didn't say anything, your expression seemed to be very excited."    

Chu Xi raised her eyes and looked at her, "It's not that excited. I just feel like I've opened a new door to a new world. I didn't expect that there are so many types of Gu, so many uses, and some of them are even unimaginable."    

"What use? Unimaginable?"    

"En … I'll tell you after I finish reading it. It's too much, and I can't explain it in a few sentences."    

"Alright then."    

Chu Xi lowered her eyes and looked at the book in her hand again. This book mentioned a type of Gu poison called Love Poison. The person who was poisoned could not be moved by love. If they were moved by love, they would feel a heart-piercing pain. This Gu poison had no cure, and there was no way to lure it out, and it would live and die with the host.    

Chu Xi frowned, thinking that this kind of venomous poison was too vicious. If two people who loved each other were poisoned, wouldn't they be separated? How could someone research such a venomous poison!    

She quickly finished reading the few books, but still couldn't find a way to save Bai Wuchen. She put the last book on the table and sighed deeply.    

"What's wrong?" Huo Yan asked.    

Chu Xi shook her head, "Nothing. Yan'er, I borrowed these books from the library. I still have to return them."    

"Go ahead. I have nothing to do here."    

"Okay, call me if you have something to do. Also, the nutritionist and the housekeeper that I arranged for you should be here soon."    

"Alright."    

Chu Xi stood up and was about to leave when someone knocked on the door.    

The two of them were stunned for a moment. Huo Yan asked, "You came so soon?"    

"It can't be that fast." Chu Xi asked doubtfully, "Who is it?"    

A man's cold voice sounded from outside the door, "It's me, Jiang Ci."    

"..."    

"..."    

Huo Yan was shocked and said, "Jiang... Jiang Ci!"    

"Yan'er, open the door."    

Huo Yan's heart tightened as she whispered, "What should we do? Why is Jiang Ci back?"    

Chu Xi looked at the table beside her and said, "Sit down. I'll go and open the door. Don't get up and say that your stomach hurts."    

"Can you?" Huo Yan's heart was about to jump out of her chest. She was a little worried.    

"It should be fine."    

"Alright then."    

Huo Yan sat down.    

Chu Xi went to open the door and covered her body with the blanket on the sofa before opening the door, "Hello, Second Young Master Jiang."    

"Hello." Jiang Ci replied and walked into the room.    

Huo Yan bent down on the table and covered her stomach with her hands, "Congratulations, Mr. Ci. Didn't you go to M Country?"    

Seeing her like this, Jiang Ci immediately asked, "What's wrong?"    

"My … My stomach hurts, I'm sorry."    

"My stomach hurts … Do you want to go to the hospital?"    

"No need, I've just taken my medicine. I'll be fine in a moment. Mr. Ci, didn't you go back to the country? Why did you come back to the capital?"    

"I was originally going to go back to the country, but there was something urgent here, so I came here first." After pausing for a moment, Jiang Ci continued, "I'll be going back to the capital tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?"    

"Go back to the capital! I … I won't go back. I have something to do."    

"Huo Fei said that you should go back."    

"I won't go back!" Huo Yan said, " Mr. Ci, you don't need to care about me. I will tell my brother."    

"Why don't you go back? What's the matter?" Jiang Ci asked.    

"Uh … I asked a friend to go out and play. We agreed."    

"Where to?"    

"Europe!" Huo Yan said, "We agreed to go to Europe."    

After a few seconds, Jiang Ci said, "So you are taking a vacation to Europe to play."    

Huo Yan nodded, "Yes."    

Jiang Ci looked at Chu Xi, "Are the two of you going together?"    

Huo Yan, "No."    

Chu Xi, "Yes."    

The two of them answered at the same time.    

Jiang Ci's questioning gaze swept across the two of them.    

Huo Yan immediately explained, "Xiao Xi has not decided yet. She still needs to discuss with her brother. If her brother agrees, then we will go together."    

Chu Xi nodded, "Yes, if my brother agrees, then we will go together. "    

"What if your brother doesn't agree?" Jiang Ci asked.    

Huo Yan said, "Then I will go with another friend, and some others."    

"Alright." Jiang Ci said, "But you have to agree with your parents and your brother."    

"Okay, I will tell them."    

Seeing that the girl was not feeling well, Jiang Ci did not stay any longer, "Then I will leave first."    

"Mr. Ci, my stomach doesn't feel well, so I can't stand up … I can't send you off."    

"Rest well, you don't need to get up."    

"I'll send Second Young Master Jiang off."    

Chu Xi sent Jiang Ci out the door. She moved her lips, wanting to say something, but she hesitated.    

Jiang Ci could tell that she had something to say, so he asked, "What do you want to say?"    

Chu Xi looked at him and shook her head, "Nothing." She smiled, "Second Young Master Jiang, take care."    

Jiang Ci looked at her for a moment, then turned around and left.    

Chu Xi sighed lightly and returned to her room.    

Huo Yan asked in a low voice, "He left?"    

"Yeah."    

"He didn't suspect anything, did he?"    

"Probably not."    

"That's good, that's good." Huo Yan patted her chest and let out a long sigh, "So close, I almost got discovered."    

Chu Xi sat opposite Huo Yan and said, "Yan Er, I think Second Young Master Jiang cares a lot about you. He treats you differently from any other woman."    

Huo Yan sighed lightly and said, "Yeah, he treats me differently. He treats me as his sister."    

"That may not be the case."    

"Xiao Xi, I know what you want to say, but it's impossible."    

"Yan Er …"    

"Alright, aren't you going to the library? Hurry up and go." Huo Yan held her chin with her hand and muttered, "I have to plan for my trip to Europe."    

"Ah? You really want to go to Europe!"    

"Even if I don't go, I have to create an illusion that I have gone to Europe. I have to make my brother and Mr. Ci believe that I really went to Europe to play, and not come back to capture me."    

"Don't run around while you're pregnant, just create an illusion."    

"En, that's what I think too. Anyway, I can't be discovered by them that I'm pregnant in advance."    

Chu Xi went to the library again, put the books she had finished reading back, and continued to read.    

Finally, on this night, she found a way.    

Chu Xi took the book and excitedly returned to the villa. As soon as she entered the living room, she saw Chu Feng sitting on the sofa. Opposite him was Bai Wuchen and Faang Zui.    

"Brother!"
