Chapter 193: Your Mouth Is Too Smelly, It’s Better If You Don’t Talk
When Chu Luo saw who it was, she was no longer in a hurry to leave. She stood at the side and watched.
“I don’t have money.” Chen Xuan’s voice was cold, but underneath it was deep disappointment and coldness.
Chen Han quickly walked up to Chen Xuan.
He grabbed Chen Xuan’s collar and spat at him fiercely. “You don’t have money? Who are you lying to? This herb shop is all yours. You’ve made a lot of money these past few years. How can you be broke?”
Chen Xuan lowered his eyes and glanced at Chen Han’s hand that was grabbing his collar. He didn’t let go, but instead pointed at the entire hall and said in a narrating tone, “Because of you, a group of people come here every few days to collect debt. If they don’t get it, they’ll smash the shop. Didn’t you see this shop in disarray when you came in?”
“Chen Han.” Chen Xuan suddenly called out his name. With a calm expression, he asked, “Do you know how much they wanted from me today?”
When Chen Han heard this, his eyes flickered for no reason. In the next second, he became self-righteous again.
“This shop is all yours. If they don’t ask for money from you, do you expect them to ask it from me, an unemployed person? Chen Xuan, let me tell you. When Father died, he said that whoever takes over this shop will take care of the other sibling. You were the one who insisted on taking away this shop that ought to be mine.”
“Ha!” Chen Xuan laughed softly and didn’t argue with him anymore. He only said, “You already owe the loan sharks 500 million yuan. Even if you sell this shop, it’s impossible for us to gather so much money immediately. I’ve helped you repay enough debts all these years.”
“Then return this shop to me.” Chen Han widened his eyes and said confidently, “As long as you return this shop to me, I will pay back the money I owe myself.”
“You…” Chen Xuan looked up at him and said lightly, “Dream on!”
Bam!
A heavy punch landed on Chen Xuan’s left cheek. Chen Xuan was caught off guard and staggered backward, slamming into the wall.
“Ah…”
The shop assistant standing at the side screamed in fright.
Chen Xuan covered his face and said to the shop assistant, “Xiao Li, you can get off work first.”
“Boss, do you want me to help you call the police?”
Xiao Li could not stand Chen Han’s behavior.
Chen Han turned around and glared at him furiously. “You’re fired, you motherf*cker! Get lost!”
Xiao Li clenched his fists in anger.
Chen Xuan didn’t want to involve outsiders and quickly said, “Xiao Li, go back first.”
Xiao Li glanced at him and left in the end.
At this moment, Chen Han finally discovered Chu Luo.
Chu Luo said, “Continue. I’m just an audience member watching the show.”
Chen Xuan said apologetically, “Sorry about this!”
Chen Han sneered. “Go somewhere else to watch the show. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude to you.”
“Ha!” Chu Luo also sneered. “I’m going to watch the show here today. Such an exciting competition between brothers is rare.”
Chen Han was angered and shouted at her angrily, “Don’t think that I won’t dare to do anything to you just because you’re a guest. Get out while I’m asking nicely!”
Chen Xuan was also angered. He put down the hand that was covering half his face and strode towards Chen Han. He also raised his fist and punched him.
“F*ck! Chen Xuan, you degenerate, you actually dare to hit me! See if I don’t beat you to death today.”
When Chen Xuan heard Chen Han’s words, his expression changed drastically.
When she saw that the two brothers were about to fight, Chu Luo’s body shook and she directly hit their acupoints.
Chen Han felt that he could no longer move and was shocked. His eyes widened and he shouted, “What did you do to me?”
Chen Xuan’s pupils constricted, but he didn’t speak.
Chu Luo stood between the two brothers and said, “I’m in a good mood today and intend to meddle in this matter.”
After saying that, she looked at Chen Xuan and asked, “What’s going on? Tell me, maybe I can help.”
“Pfft…” Chen Han sneered. “You’re just a child. I think you’re attracted to Chen Xuan’s face.”
“Chen Han, shut up!”
“Shut up? Since you dare to do it, what’s there to be afraid of admitting!” Chen Han didn’t care about their brotherhood at all and said directly, “Did you know? Chen Xuan is a degenerate.”
Chu Luo tilted her head and looked at Chen Xuan, who had suddenly turned pale, then at Chen Han, who had a fierce expression. She didn’t immediately speak.
Chen Han continued to mock and ridicule, “So it’s useless even if you like him. He’s a total degenerate.”
Chen Xuan’s body trembled from anger. His face was filled with suppressed anger and disappointment, as well as indescribable despair.
That’s right. Anyone would be disheartened to be treated like this by their closest kin.
Seeing him like this, Chen Han said even more fearlessly, “It’s because of him that I can’t lift my head in front of my friends and have to suffer the cold gazes of others every day. He’s a pervert. On what basis did our father give him the herbs shop…? He should die.”
Chu Luo looked at Chen Han, who was getting more and more excited as he spoke, then looked at Chen Xuan, who was silent with his eyes lowered. She asked, “Are you really biological brothers?”
“I’d rather we’re not!” Chen Han shouted. “Being his brother is the biggest humiliation of my life!”
Chu Luo looked at Chen Xuan, who was trembling slightly, and asked, “Since he never treated you as a brother, why did you agree to your father’s request to guard this herbs shop? Why did you help him pay off the loan? Why did you help him clean up this mess?”
Chen Xuan finally looked at Chu Luo. He was a little surprised that she knew all this.
Chen Han sneered. “If this herbs shop had been given to me, he wouldn’t need to do anything. These are all things that he should do.”
Chen Xuan looked at Chen Han with his pitch-black eyes. His lips trembled, but he didn’t say anything.
Chu Luo said, “Coincidentally, your experience is similar to mine. I also hate people who obviously don’t have the ability but still want something that they shouldn’t have. I’ll give you two choices:
“First, you can continue to fight it out with him until you two fight to the death. Second, I’ll give you a chance to start afresh. Come with me.”
Chen Xuan looked at her in disbelief, but he could see a domineering and confident look in her eyes.
Chen Xuan’s lips moved a few times and he was about to speak.
Chen Han was the first to mock him. “Aren’t you afraid of being mocked by others for bringing a degenerate along?”
Chu Luo narrowed her eyes, a dangerous glint flickering across them. “Who dares to mock my people?”
After saying that, she looked at Chen Xuan. “Your decision.”
Chen Xuan: “Okay.”
Chu Luo unsealed their acupoints. Just as Chen Han was about to speak again, Chu Luo sealed his mute acupoint again.
Chen Han covered his neck with his hands and opened his mouth wide, a fearful look in his eyes.
“Your mouth stinks. It’s better if you don’t speak.”
After saying that, she asked Chen Xuan, “Are you coming with me now or do you have things to settle here?”
Chen Xuan put away the disappointment and coldness on his face and said, “I originally planned to manage our herbs shop well, but there’s no need for that now… I’ll go with you now.”
He then looked at Chen Han. “Our brotherhood is over. No matter how you manage this herbs shop in the future or what becomes of you, it has nothing to do with me anymore.”
Chen Han glared at him as if to say: I couldn’t ask for more.
Chen Xuan followed Chu Luo.
Just as Chen Han was about to rejoice, he remembered that he couldn’t speak. His expression changed drastically, and all his joy turned into fear. However, when he chased after them, the two of them had already disappeared.
After getting into the car, Chen Xuan asked Chu Luo worriedly, “You don’t mind?”
“Who you like is your business. Why should I mind?”
Chen Xuan’s body trembled as he looked at her in disbelief. Suddenly, an indescribable feeling of being touched fermented in his heart.
He didn’t expect that the first person to say this would be a girl who wasn’t related to him at all.
Chu Luo said, “As for you, why don’t you ask me what I do and what arrangements I have for you?”
“It doesn’t matter,” Chen Xuan said. “It’d be best if we went to a place where no one knows me.”
“Very good.” Chu Luo smiled. “I’ll have you go to America and help me manage a beauty products company.”
“You…” Chen Xuan finally looked shocked. “Aren’t you worried that I won’t be able to manage a company? Also… I don’t know anything about beauty products.”
“It’s okay if you don’t know. You can learn. What I need is someone who can firmly guard my formulas and not let anyone take them away.”
Chen Xuan fell silent.
After a while, he replied resolutely, “Okay.”
…
When the car drove back to the old district, it was already four in the afternoon.
Chu Luo stopped the car and the butler welcomed her. “Miss Chu, you’re back.”
After saying that, he quietly sized up Chen Xuan, who had returned with Chu Luo.
Chu Luo said to him, “Help him arrange a guest room. He will stay here for the next two days.”
The butler nodded.
The three of them walked in together.
Chen Xuan didn’t look around. Chu Luo brought him to her herbs refining room.
When he saw the herbs refining room, Chen Xuan was finally shocked.
“Miss Chu, you know how to make medicine yourself?!”
“That’s right. That’s why I asked you to go to America.”
“You know how to develop your own formula for beauty products?”
“Mm.”
Chu Luo took out the two bags of herbs she had brought back and gestured to Chen Xuan. “Help me grind these two herbs into powder.”
Chen Xuan was stunned for a moment before nodding. “Okay.”
When Li Yan returned, the first thing he did was ask the butler, who came up to welcome him, “Where is Luoluo?”
“Master, Miss Chu is in the herbs refining room.”
Li Yan walked straight to the herbs refining room. The butler quickly followed up and said, “Miss Chu brought back a gentleman today.”
Li Yan’s expression didn’t change. He merely responded with an “Mm” and quickened his pace.
