Chapter 611 Threat

In the end, Chu Luo decided to attend this banquet.

She was a little worried about Anya.

The two of them agreed to see each other later and hung up.

At this moment, Chu Luo was still concocting in the villa behind. She hung up the phone and walked out. Wondering where Snowball had gone, she called out to Snowball but it didn’t appear. Instead, the butler showed up.

The butler said to her, “Madam, Master called just now and asked me to prepare a gown for you. He said that if you want to attend Prince Sejer’s banquet, give him a call.”

Chu Luo nodded. “Okay.”

She then called Li Yan.

Whether Li Yan went or not depended on Chu Luo.

Chu Luo called him and said, “I’ll go over with Anya later. Your place is closer to the US embassy. You can go there straight.” Li Yan nodded and said, “Send me a message before you leave.”

Chu Luo replied, “Okay.”

After hanging up the phone, Chu Luo and the butler walked out of the door.

She had just walked to the door when she saw a ball of white fur running towards her. The ball of fur had a piece of White Withered Floss in its mouth.

As Snowball was running too quickly, it didn’t stop when it ran over. It bumped into Chu Luo’s shoes and flipped over.

“Pfft…”

Chu Luo watched as Roundy rolled a few times, then bent down and picked it up in her palm. She tapped its small head and said with a smile, “Why are you running so quickly? Don’t you know how round you are?” Snowball stomped its feet in her hand unhappily and started nibbling on the White Withered Floss.

The butler looked at Snowball and sighed. “Snowball is really sentient.”

Chu Luo smiled. The two of them walked towards the villa in front.

When Chu Luo went upstairs to change and came down, the butler said to her, “Madam, I prepared some snacks for you and placed them in the car. You can eat them on the way with Princess Anya later.”

“Thank you, butler.”

As Chu Luo spoke, she walked out of the door.

The car stopped in front of the villa Anya was staying in and Anya walked out in a palace gown from America. There were two maids and two guards behind her.

Anya lifted her skirt and walked to Chu Luo’s car. Chu Luo opened the door for her.

After Anya sat in, she sized up Chu Luo’s attire and was a little surprised. “Chu, I realized that many of your clothes have an ancient imperial style. You’re really beautiful in such a gown.”

“You look beautiful in a US palace gown too.”

“Hehe.”

Anya rubbed her stomach and said to her, “Blockhead called me just now and said that he’ll go over there with Li later.”

Chu Luo nodded, took out the lunchbox, and opened it.

A sweet and sour fragrance wafted out. Anya wrinkled her nose and asked in surprise, “Is it sour date cake?”

“That’s right.”

Chu Luo gave her a fork.

The two of them ate together.

The car drove to Imperial University first. Chu Luo went to the principal to get the invitation before continuing to drive towards the Imperial Capital district. The place where Prince Sejer was holding the banquet tonight wasn’t far from the US embassy. In front of a seven-star hotel, an endless stream of cars drove over from all directions. Guards in the US uniform instructed the cars to drive to the designated place.

Anya sat in the car and glanced at the hotel door. She pursed her lips. “He caused such a huge commotion immediately upon arriving. Is he afraid that no one will know that he is

here?”

Chu Luo tilted her head and glanced at her. She asked, “Does he hold banquets often in America too?”

“Yes, at least four to five times a month. We call him a banquet expert in private.” Chu Luo was silent for a few seconds. She had to say, “Impressive.”

This was the first time she had heard of someone holding so many banquets in a month.

After their car drove to the parking lot, a group of bodyguards quickly walked over.

Among the bodyguards, Li Yan and Qin Ming walked over together.

The car door opened and Chu Luo and Anya alighted.

Tonight, Qin Ming had deliberately dressed up. When Anya saw him, she said infatuatedly, “Blockhead, you’re so handsome tonight.”

After saying that, she grabbed Qin Ming’s arm.

Chu Luo also wrapped her arm around Li Yan and whispered to him, “Anya said that her royal brother was sent to Europe by the king. Coming to the empire was his own idea.”

Li Yan responded with an “Mm” and patted the back of her hand. “Be careful later… Sejer brought two people over tonight. One is a noble from Y Nation, and the other is a noble from D Nation. The nobles from Y Nation have been in contact with the underworld over there recently. The nobles from D Nation also had a conflict within their families.”

Chu Luo was silent for a few seconds when she heard this. She said awkwardly, “Birds of the same feather flock together indeed… Could it be that they came to the empire for the gaming capsule or cell regeneration data?” “Mm.”

“Ha!”

Before the four of them could reach the hotel door, many people came over to greet Li Yan and the others.

Everyone walked into the hotel door. Someone led them to the elevator that was specially reserved for them in the hall on the first floor.

When the elevator reached the floor that Prince Sejer had booked, a man in a prince’s uniform walked over enthusiastically.

“My dear sister, Brother-in-law, long time no

see.”

After Sejer came over, he hugged Anya.

“Second Brother, long time no see. I heard that Father wants you to go to Europe. I didn’t expect you to come to the empire.”

Anya’s voice wasn’t loud, but Chu Luo and the others could hear her.

Sejer also lowered his voice and said pompously with a smile, “Ever since you married into the empire, I realized that I miss you a lot. You’re the only princess of our royal family. As your older brother, I have a duty to protect you.”

Anya retreated from his arms and quickly hugged Qin Ming’s arm, trying her best to control her goosebumps.

Sejer turned to Li Yan and Chu Luo and gave them a gentlemanly welcome.

“CEO Li, Mrs. Li, welcome, welcome. Please come in.”

As he spoke, he led the four of them inside.

As he walked, Sejer said, “I’ll be working at the embassy in the future. If CEO Li has any projects that involve cooperation with America, you’re welcome to look for me anytime.”

After the five of them walked into the magnificent banquet hall, many people welcomed them.

Sejer said to Anya naturally, “Sister, I’ll leave Mrs. Li to you to entertain later.” As he spoke, he pointed in one of the directions. “There are many ladies from the upper-class society in the capital over there. Also, there’s the younger sister of Baron Osshan from D Nation, Yudairi. Help me entertain her later.”

Anya said in dissatisfaction, “Brother Wang, I’m pregnant and can’t entertain so many people.” “It’s okay. You can just chat a little with them.” At this point, Sejer smiled at Chu Luo. “I believe with a few words from Mrs. Li, those people will be very easy to entertain.”

Chu Luo glanced at Sejer, who was looking at her, and could tell at a glance that he was doing this on purpose. She didn’t say anything and let go of Li Yan’s hand. She nodded and only said, “I’ll take good care of Anya.”

Then, she walked over with Anya.

Tonight’s banquet was a cocktail party. Amid the soothing music, everyone was holding a glass of wine. Most people were gathered at Li Yan’s side, and those who couldn’t squeeze in were gathered in groups of two or three, chatting and drinking merrily. When Chu Luo and Anya walked over, a group of women looked over. Everyone looked a little reserved.

“Princess Anya, Mrs. Li, good evening.”

“Good evening, everyone.”

Everyone exchanged greetings. Anya smiled and raised her glass at everyone. “Welcome to our banquet. Let me toast everyone.”

Chu Luo had long changed the wine in Anya’s hand to water and wasn’t worried that she would hurt the fetus.

After everyone drank this glass of wine, Anya said, “Don’t be restrained, everyone. Let’s have a chat.”

Everyone loosened up a little.

At this moment, Yudairi toasted Chu Luo. “Mrs. Li, I’ve heard a lot about you. Many university students in D Nation admire you and your ability. You’re welcome to come to our country to play anytime.”

Chu Luo clinked glasses with her and they drank.

Yudairi added, “The cell regeneration medicine you developed, in particular, is a medical miracle.”

Chu Luo corrected him. “It wasn’t just me. It was jointly developed with Elder Hu, Professor Tang, and Doctor Cao.”

“Haha… That’s still amazing.” “Of course.” Anya was especially smug. “She’s

a genius.”

When Anya said that, everyone seemed to have found a way to enter the conversation and started praising Chu Luo.

These people wished they could praise Chu Luo to the skies.

Yudairi kept toasting Chu Luo.

Seeing that she had downed a few glasses, Yudairi stared at Chu Luo’s expression and thought, ‘Why isn’t she drunk?’

Chu Luo could tell what Yudairi was thinking at a glance. The corners of her lips curled up slightly before she asked Anya, “Anya, do you want to go to the washroom?”

Anya didn’t want to go to the toilet, so she shook her head at her. Chu Luo said, “Then I’ll go to the washroom.”

After Chu Luo finished speaking, she waved her hand and called a waiter over. After placing the wine glass on the tray, she walked towards the washroom.

The washroom was outside the hall. Not long after Chu Luo walked out, she heard footsteps behind her.

Then, Yudairi chased after her and said, “Mrs. Li, I’ll go to the washroom with you.”

Chu Luo nodded.

The two of them arrived at the washroom. There was no one around at this time.

Chu Luo went straight to the toilet inside. When she came out, Yudairi was already standing by the sink washing her hands.

Chu Luo quietly looked at the bathroom door that she had closed and pretended not to notice as she walked over to wash her hands.

As soon as she finished washing her hands, Yudairi suddenly said, “Miss Chu, shall we talk?”

“Talk about what?” Chu Luo turned to look at her.

Worried that someone would come over, Yudairi said her purpose directly. “Let’s jointly develop the cell regeneration medicine.”

Chu Luo smiled slightly. “What can you offer in exchange for that cooperation?”

“We can give your Phoenix Corporation the go-ahead in D Nation and Y Nation.”

Hearing this, the smile on Chu Luo’s face widened. “Do you think I need you to give us the go-ahead?”

She refused without hesitation. “No.”

After saying that, she turned and walked towards the door.

“Miss Chu,” Yudairi said in a threatening tone behind her. “Cooperating with us will be beneficial to you and the other three. Miss Chu, you’d better think carefully.”
