Chapter 131
Qiao Chuchu pursed her lips, her heart melting.
【Oh~ So sweet.】
【The unintentional clinginess and sincerity of children are the most adorable!!】
She readily agreed, "Of course!"
Lou Yuejue's eyes lit up, "Then it's settled!"
Qiao Chuchu hooked her pinky with his, "It's settled!~"
The Pei Family members' faces turned green as they glanced at Lou Tingsi, who was standing nearby with a smile, their expressions full of accusation.
How is your son so smooth?
Did you teach him?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lou Tingsi, with his hands in his pockets, smiled wryly and shrugged, "I didn't know he had that sketch. If I had known earlier, I would've confiscated it."
Lou Yuejue looked back at his father with a challenging grin.
Yes, he knew his father would confiscate it, so he kept it a secret.
Hehe.
Lou Tingsi: "..."
As Qiao Chuchu and Lou Yuejue hooked their fingers, a sudden vision flashed before her eyes.
She tried to grasp it, but the image suddenly forced itself into her view!
— Lou Tingsi lying on a hospital bed, the heart monitor flatlining.
— Lou Yuejue clutching his father's hand, crying hysterically.
The scene shifted, and the lively Lou Yuejue was suddenly lying dead in the mud, his eyes wide open.
— Pei Buxian, dead in a car crash, half of his face crushed.
— A mixed-race man with chocolate-colored skin, dressed in a suit, sitting calmly in a Bentley, rolling down the window and saying, "Miss Qiao, you said there's a traitor by my side? Care to get in the car and talk?"
— In a sleet-filled sky, under a gloomy atmosphere, Xia Xuechun stood within the protective circle of the Dragon Family, boldly declaring, "It was Lou Yuejue who brought a knife to attack me, it's not my fault! And your brother's death wasn't my doing either, he just wasn't a good driver!!"
She abruptly pulled her hand away, jolting out of the prophetic vision!
Lou Yuejue looked at her strangely, "Sister? What's wrong?"
Qiao Chuchu gasped for breath, a thin layer of sweat forming on her forehead as she stared at Lou Yuejue and Pei Buxian in horror.
The people around her looked at her with confusion.
Even the Wei Sheng Family members noticed her odd behavior, turning their heads in her direction.
After a long moment, Qiao Chuchu finally looked at Lou Tingsi.
【There's a traitor by Lou Tingsi's side!!!】
Lou Tingsi: "?"
Lou Yuejue: "?"
Qiao Chuchu clenched her fists: 【My prophetic ability is warning me again.】
【Not only is there a traitor by Lou Tingsi's side, but it's also a spy planted by the Dragon Family. The Dragon Family is aligned with Xia Xuechun's faction. Originally, Lou Yuejue was the one supporting Xia Xuechun, but since their relationship soured, the script created the Dragon Family to replace Lou Yuejue's role.】
【But the Dragon Family lacks resources, so they will kill the Lou Family, take over their business, and absorb their assets, becoming a new force to protect Xia Xuechun.】
【Lou Tingsi will die at the hands of his own people, Lou Yuejue will lose his mind seeking revenge against the Dragon Family, and Pei Buxian will die in a car accident while trying to help Lou Yuejue!】
【Lou Yuejue will also die with his eyes wide open, lying in the mud!】
Lou Tingsi: "?"
Lou Yuejue: "??"
Pei Buxian: "???"
Pei Buxian was utterly bewildered.
Why is my life and death tied up in the Lou Family's drama?!
Weisheng Yucan exchanged glances with her brothers.
Weisheng Wenzhan narrowed his eyes, "Did Qiao Chuchu just gain a prophetic ability?"
Yucan whispered her analysis, "Probably because she's altered the plot too much, and the storyline has twisted in a way that's different from before, so now she can predict the future."
Weisheng Lin shuddered, "Damn, a prophet? Is she the chosen one or something?"
Weisheng Huailing was cautious: 「Does that mean our death endings could also change?」
Weisheng Biehe, twirling his prayer beads, silently watched Qiao Chuchu.
Lin Qing turned to Lin Shen, "Does that mean our storyline will change too? So even if I hide, it won't make a difference?"
Lin Shen nodded gravely.
The group subtly glanced at Qiao Chuchu, each harboring their own thoughts.
If that's the case...
We need to keep her close!
Being her neighbor isn't enough; we need to live with her to know our fate in real-time and stay safe!
Lou Tingsi, his face pale: "..."
Right now, he didn't care about anything else—only who the traitor among his trusted aides was!
He had three confidants!
The butler hurried over to Weisheng Lin and whispered, "Young Master Lin, the Ying Family's... has arrived."
Weisheng Lin nodded and looked at his family, "Ying Chen is here. Everyone, straighten your faces. Don't let him notice anything suspicious."
As soon as he finished speaking, the banquet hall doors were pushed open by a waiter.
A mixed-race man with chocolate-colored skin, dressed in a sharp suit, strode in confidently with a row of bodyguards behind him, "Weisheng Biehe!"
Everyone turned in shock toward the source of the voice.
The man exuded an air of arrogance, as if no one else in the room mattered, and walked briskly toward Weisheng Biehe.
Weisheng Biehe quickly approached him, a rare smile breaking through his usual stoic expression, "Brother Ying, didn't you say you weren't coming? What brings you here?"
The man clapped his shoulder, his tone breezy, "Just finished some business and flew over. I couldn't miss your birthday celebration."
He handed over a gift box, "I picked out a vintage glass-type jade tea set for you, auctioned it myself. Don't look down on it."
Biehe accepted it with a smile, "How could I? Your jade pieces are always the best."
The man grinned happily and turned to Yucan, "Sister Yucan, Brother Wenzhan, long time no see."
Weisheng Yucan put on a warm smile and walked over to him, "Perfect timing. Let me introduce you to a new friend of mine."
She called out to Qiao Chuchu, "Chuchu!"
Chuchu snapped out of her daze and quickly walked over, "Sister Yucan."
Weisheng Yucan affectionately wrapped an arm around her shoulders and said to Ying Chen, "This is my savior, the eighth sister of the Pei Family, Qiao Chuchu. From now on, she's part of the Wei Sheng Family, one of us."
She gestured to Qiao Chuchu, "Chuchu, this is your Brother Ying Chen, a big shot from overseas. Call him 'Brother.'"
Qiao Chuchu nodded, "Hello, Brother—"
As she looked up and met Ying Chen's gaze, her eyes widened in shock.
【Holy crap! This guy looks exactly like the man from my prophetic vision!】
【The one who looks handsome but has a traitor by his side, who will eventually be betrayed and then become a stepping stone for the Dragon Family to take over his business!!!】
Weisheng Yucan: "?"
Weisheng Biehe: "?"
The others who could hear her thoughts: "?"
They all turned their eyes to Ying Chen.
Ying Chen's smile didn't falter; instead, it grew into something almost eerie as he extended his hand to Qiao Chuchu, "Sister, how could you keep such a cute sister from me for so long?"
Qiao Chuchu, belatedly realizing, shook his hand.
His large hand enveloped hers, the calluses on his palm suggesting frequent use of firearms, "Hello, little sister. I'm Ying Chen. 'Ying' as in victory, 'Chen' as in dust."
Qiao Chuchu nodded, "Hello, Brother Ying Chen."
She tried to pull her hand back.
Huh?
It wouldn't budge.
Qiao Chuchu looked up in surprise to find Ying Chen's gaze locked onto her like a tiger's, his grip unyielding as his tone grew darker.
"Nice to meet you. I look forward to getting to know you better, little sister."
