The Wife of the Wealthy Family Is Fierce and Cute.

Chapter 194: He Is My Employee, What Are You Talking to Him About?

When Li Yan pushed open the herbs refining room, Chu Luo was standing by the cauldron, brewing medicine while Chen Xuan was grinding herbs on the other side.

Chu Luo looked up and saw that it was Li Yan. Her lips curled up and she called out sweetly, “Li Yan, you’re back.”

The coldness on Li Yan’s face instantly disappeared. He nodded and walked to her side.

There was a thick medicinal fragrance floating in the air. Chu Luo said, “I have all the herbs I wanted. I’ll prepare them in the next two days. After I’m done, Chen Xuan can go to America.”

At this point, she pointed at Chen Xuan, who was stunned to see Li Yan. “He’s Chen Xuan. I told you about the owner of that herbs shop the other day, but he’s mine now.”

Li Yan didn’t look at Chen Xuan but stared at Chu Luo and corrected her. “He’s your employee.”

“Eh?”

Chu Luo blinked and looked at him, who had suddenly become serious. She didn’t quite understand what he meant.

Li Yan didn’t say much and asked, “How long more?”

“Soon. This medicine needs to be brewed for another ten minutes.”

“Let him watch it.”

After saying that, Li Yan grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the door.

As he walked, he said to Chen Xuan, “Watch Luoluo’s medicine.”

Chen Xuan’s body trembled for no reason. Before he could answer, the two of them had already walked out.

Li Yan pulled Chu Luo all the way upstairs and into the bedroom. He pressed her against the wall.

Chu Luo leaned against the wall and blinked her big eyes at him in confusion. “You seem a little unhappy.”

Li Yan lowered his head and sealed her lips.

It wasn’t until their breathing was a little unstable that he let go of her and said, “Don’t say others are yours again.”

“Mm?”

Li Yan looked like he was about to kiss her again. Chu Luo quickly placed her hands on his chest and pushed him. “You’re not allowed to kiss me.”

Li Yan simply pulled her into his arms and whispered into her ear.

After Chu Luo heard what he said, her ears slowly turned red. In the end, she responded with an “Mm.”

Satisfied, Li Yan sealed her mouth again.

After a while.

Chu Luo raised her hand and patted him in dissatisfaction. “Big baddie, I told you not to kiss me.”

Seeing how shy she was, Li Yan swept his lips across her cheek and asked, “Are you still going to the herbs refining room tonight?”

Chu Luo shook her head. “I’ll prescribe the prescription you want tonight so that you can get someone to look for the herbs.”

“Mm.”

“I smell like medicine. Get out, I’ll change.”

As Chu Luo spoke, she pushed him out of the door.

Li Yan followed her lead.

Chu Luo went to take a shower and happened to see Li Yan come out in his casual home clothes.

Chu Luo walked up to him and touched the material of his clothes before touching the material of hers.

Li Yan watched her movements with a questioning gaze.

Chu Luo said, “I met a few people at your company’s underground parking lot today. A woman insisted that my clothes were from a high-end custom-made brand under Blazing Glory.”

Li Yan looked at her but didn’t say anything.

Chu Luo added, “It does feel a little similar to mine, so… did you get someone to swap the clothes I bought last time?”

Li Yan’s eyes were warm. He responded with an “Mm” and didn’t deny it.

Chu Luo bit her lips, but the corners of her lips couldn’t help but curl up. She took the initiative to hold his hand and the two of them walked downstairs.

As she walked, she told him about her plan to have Chen Xuan go to America.

“Chen Xuan can’t manage such a large company alone for now.” Li Yan suggested, “You can get the headhunter company to help you recruit a few professional managers.”

Li Yan gave Chu Luo many suggestions.

As he was the CEO of an international corporation, Li Yan’s every suggestion was spot-on. Chu Luo had never really come into contact with this before, so she listened seriously.

While eating, Chu Luo called Chen Xuan out.

When Chen Xuan saw Li Yan this time, he had put away the shock on his face. Chu Luo didn’t say who Li Yan was, and he didn’t ask.

After dinner, Li Yan called him to the study.

Puzzled, Chu Luo asked, “He’s my employee. Why are you talking to him?”

“To tell him how to manage the company. My wife’s company must be managed by someone capable.”

When Chen Xuan heard Li Yan address Chu Luo as such, surprise flashed across his eyes.

Chu Luo was a little embarrassed when she heard him call her his wife, but she couldn’t criticize Li Yan in front of Chen Xuan. Therefore, she merely nodded.

Li Yan brought Chen Xuan to the study.

Chu Luo was bored alone and strolled in the courtyard.

It was only six o’clock and the sky wasn’t dark yet.

The flowers and trees in the courtyard grew especially well, making people feel good just by looking at them.

At this moment, Chu Luo saw Qin Ming striding in from the courtyard.

The butler happened to walk out from the door. Qin Ming asked the butler, “Butler, where’s Master?”

The butler replied, “Master is in the study.”

Qin Ming stopped. Seeing Chu Luo by the pavilion, he turned around and walked over.

“Miss Chu.”

“What is it?”

Chu Luo turned to look at him.

Qin Ming said to her expressionlessly, “Just now, Princess Anya called and said that she wanted to see you.”

“…” Chu Luo: “Why did she call you if she wanted to see me?”

Qin Ming thought to himself,?‘Since strangers can’t call you and Master, she only managed to contact me. What can I do?’

His face remained expressionless. “I don’t know.”

Chu Luo thought for a while and asked, “Did she say why she wanted to see me?”

“No.”

“Since she didn’t say anything, just tell her I’m busy the next time she calls.”

“Okay.”

After saying that, Qin Ming turned around and walked out.

Chu Luo waited for him to leave before turning around and walking towards the door.

Li Yan didn’t talk to Chen Xuan for long. When he came down, Chu Luo was writing rapidly on a piece of paper.

Li Yan walked over and sat beside her.

Chu Luo’s words were very beautiful. Amid the flamboyance, they carried an indescribable lightness and beauty.

Li Yan looked at her writing for a while before asking, “Are these herbs easy to find?”

“It’s not easy to find all of them,” Chu Luo said as she wrote. “There are a few herbs that are only recorded in ancient books. Basically, not many people have heard of them.”

Li Yan frowned.

“I’ll draw out the appearance of those herbs later. Then, I’ll write down the characteristics and the environment where they grow. You can send more people to look for them.”

“Mm.”

Chu Luo continued writing until past ten o’clock.

She had asked for more than 30 kinds of herbs, and the last few were especially accompanied by drawings and explanations.

Li Yan looked at them and asked the butler to bring him his laptop.

Chu Luo watched as he typed all these medicinal names into his laptop’s notebook and asked strangely, “Why did you have to key them into the computer?”

“Your handwriting can’t be seen.” Li Yan only said this one sentence and didn’t continue.

Chu Luo didn’t understand and wanted to continue asking, but Li Yan said to her, “Can you make these herbs into a 3D drawing?”

Chu Luo thought for a moment and nodded.

Li Yan quickly entered the list of medicinal herbs and handed her his laptop.

Chu Luo made a 3D diagram of those herbs.

As she did that, she said, “This Ice Fire Unicorn Grass grows by natural hot springs, but it must be surrounded by snow that doesn’t melt all year round.

“As for this White Withered Floss, it grows in dense forests, which are places where the sun can’t be seen all day long. There’s also a similar type of grass growing around it. When looking for it, you have to look at the back of its leaves. The fluff on the back of the leaves will glow. The other leaves glow from the front.

“This Flaming Phoenix Grass…”

Chu Luo suddenly stopped here.

Li Yan looked at her, who had suddenly stopped talking, and asked, “What?”

“This grass has its guardian beast. Its guardian beast can breathe fire. Once someone is spat by the fire, they will turn into ashes quickly.”

Li Yan responded with an “Mm” but his expression didn’t change much.

He asked, “Where is the last herb found?”

“In a valley where all four seasons are like spring. This herb is delicate. It can’t be too cold nor can it withstand heat. Even if you find it, you’ll have to store it at a constant temperature to protect it.”

Li Yan fell silent again.

Chu Luo looked at him and asked, “How long do you need that old man to live? If it’s only for a year or so, I can use other herbs as replacements. If you want him to live for a few more years and also ensure that he is in good health, we will have to use these handful of herbs.”

Li Yan closed his laptop and didn’t answer her immediately. Instead, he lowered his eyes and started thinking.

After about ten minutes, he said, “Let me think about it.”

Chu Luo nodded.

Li Yan stood up and pulled her upstairs.

“Go rest first. I’ll go to the study room.”

The two of them walked upstairs and Li Yan went to the study.

When the butler brought Li Yan tea, Li Yan was sitting at his desk in deep thought.

The butler placed the tea on the desk and stood still.

After a while, he called out to Li Yan, “Master.”

Li Yan looked up at him with his eternally cold eyes.

The butler deliberated for a moment and asked in confusion, “If you use Miss Chu’s prescription in exchange for what you promised Old Master, you wouldn’t have to work so hard anymore. Why did you…”

Li Yan waved at him, gesturing for him to leave.

The butler sighed in his heart but ultimately turned around to leave.

He knew that his young master was sincere towards Miss Chu and didn’t want her to be involved in this matter.

However…

Li Yan had been sitting in the study for nearly half an hour when his phone rang.

When he picked up the phone, he heard an anxious voice. “Old Master has fallen ill. We’re going to lock down the news now. If you find that ancient tomb, go down to the tomb immediately to look for the medicine.”

Li Yan pursed his lips and didn’t answer immediately.

As if afraid that he would go back on his word, the other party said anxiously, “Li Yan, don’t forget who saved your life.”

Li Yan frowned and a cold aura emanated from his body.

The other party seemed to have realized that he had been too impulsive and said, “Sorry, I was too anxious. You know that Old Master can’t fall. If he falls, we’ll all be finished.”

Li Yan finally spoke, his tone cold. “It’s you people, not me.”
