Chapter 384: I treated you well, and you actually dare to frame me? (Seeking

In the backyard of the Hong Sect Villa, in a room under tight guard, the lamp flickered.

Both Luo Jiazi sat alone by the window, her delicate face filled with sorrow.

She gently stroked the medicine bottle in her hand; this was the "antidote" Qin Hong sent today, but it was also the shackle that imprisoned her here.

Because tomorrow, according to the agreement, her daughter was to marry, and she herself would have to go and serve that despicable fellow, Qin Hong.

If she had known, she shouldn't have saved Qin Hong back then; who knew Qin Hong was this kind of person.

But in recent years, other than poisoning her, Qin Hong hadn't made any moves, keeping his promise, so she had always been conflicted about whether to accept her fate.

She was truly unwilling to accept her fate; she already had a man, and her man had said he would return one day.

But she had no way to not accept her fate. At this moment, a burst of brisk footsteps appeared outside the door.

"Mother!" Luo Xi pushed the door and entered, her face filled with irrepressible joy.

Both Luo Jiazi was happy at first, then dimmed again: "Xi'er, why are you covered in mud? Did you go to the ancestral home ruins again?"

She stroked her daughter's hair with heartache; it was all her mother's fault for being useless, unable to even protect her own daughter.

"Yes, Mother, I met my aunt and second aunt at the Luo family ruins!" Luo Xi said in a low voice.

Both Luo Jiazi stood up abruptly: "Where are they?"

A glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes.

If Both Luo Jiazi remembered correctly, her eldest sister Luo Qimeng had disappeared following the destruction of the Luoshui Villa.

Her second sister had run away from home when she was young and eloped with a mysterious and powerful man.

Both Luo Jiazi still remembered that the man seemed to have the surname Jun, but she forgot his specific name.

However, there was one thing she remembered deeply: that man with the surname Jun was very strong, and no one of the same generation in the world could surpass him.

If her second sister returned, her husband should be able to settle the problems here.

"They have already arrived at the villa, in the banquet hall," Luo Xi replied.

This sentence made Both Luo Jiazi stand up in surprise: "Oh no!"

She thought to herself: Qin Hong is a lecher; I did him a favor back then, which is why he didn't use force. Aren't my eldest sister and second sister walking into the tiger's den?

Both Luo Jiazi had lived here for a period of time, and some of the beautiful women who stayed overnight were kept by Qin Hong using underhanded means.

Even now, those women were still locked in the backyard.

Both Luo Jiazi asked her daughter if anyone had followed her two aunts here.

Upon learning it was a young man, Both Luo Jiazi panicked; it seemed it wasn't that second brother-in-law, so this matter had to be considered carefully.

She had to find a way to notify them to leave; she herself definitely couldn't get away, but she couldn't let them fall into the fire pit too.

Actually, her guess was right. When Qin Hong was preparing the dinner, he secretly drugged the wine, aiming to keep Luo Zixi and Luo Qimeng. Up until now, he hadn't taken the young man beside the two beauties seriously.

After preparing almost everything, Qin Hong walked into the banquet hall with a spring in his step, followed by a team of maids holding delicacies.

"I've kept you all waiting for a long time. I have already ordered someone to invite Jiazi. She is weak, and dressing up takes some time."

He pretended to be apologetic and cupped his hands, but his gaze kept wandering over the Luo Qimeng sisters.

Luo Zixi was clearly not interested in Qin Hong and said coldly: "Villa Master Qin, we came here only to take Jiazi and Xi'er away. As long as you release them, these resources will be considered a thank-you gift."

She took out a brocade box, which contained ten "Nine-Turn Profound Spirit Pills" that could make even Heavenly Abyss Realm experts jealous.

When she came, Luo Zixi had already inquired about Qin Hong's strength.

Greed flashed across Qin Hong's eyes, but he feigned refusal: "What does the fairy mean by this? Jiazi and her daughter are doing very well here."

Luo Zixi already had a bit of a temper, so she simply said directly: "Whether they are doing well or not is not for you to decide."

Qin Hong was a little annoyed, but to stall for time, he still accompanied with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes, Youlan Youlan Xianzi Luo is right. Then when the mother and daughter come over later, we will ask for their opinions. If they want to stay, I will definitely take good care of them; if they want to leave, I will definitely not hold them back."

That was what he said, but in his heart, he was thinking, wait until you finish drinking the wine, and let's see if you can still be stubborn.

At that time, I will definitely repay the anger I am receiving now a hundredfold.

This sentence did make Luo Zixi stop saying anything more; at least Qin Hong did the surface work very well.

After the wine and dishes were served, the hall door was gently pushed open.

A stunningly beautiful mature woman in a pale purple gauze dress walked in slowly. Her skin was like snow, her eyebrows were like paintings, and her skirt swayed as she walked, outlining a plump and graceful figure.

As soon as she appeared, even Li Chen could tell directly that this should be the younger sister of Luo Zixi and Luo Qimeng.

Sure enough, she had excellent grace and was a natural stunner.

If there were three of them together, who knows how refreshing it would be.

Maybe you couldn't tell them apart when blowing out the candles at night, but Li Chen rarely blew out candles.

Most eye-catching were Both Luo Jiazi's apricot eyes, which were full of sorrow and resentment, as if they contained endless stories.

It made ordinary men want to protect her when they saw her, but Li Chen just wanted to bully her hard.

"Eldest sister! Second sister!" Both Luo Jiazi's voice trembled, and she stepped forward quickly to embrace her two sisters.

The three sisters were reunited after a long separation, and Both Luo Jiazi's tears could no longer be suppressed, sliding down her delicate cheeks.

They were all women who had suffered in the first half of their lives, drifting from place to place.

Luo Qimeng wiped away her sister's tears with heartache: "You've suffered all these years."

Luo Zixi stared directly at Qin Hong: "Is this what you call 'doing very well'?"

Qin Hong was about to explain with a smirk, but Both Luo Jiazi preempted him: "The Villa Master has indeed treated us mother and daughter well."

As she spoke, she secretly pinched her sisters' hands, signaling them not to act rashly.

Taking advantage of the crowd's pleasantries, Luo Xi quietly circled to Li Chen's side and stuffed a note into his hand.

Li Chen unfolded it calmly and saw it said: "The wine and food are poisoned, leave quickly!"

According to the plan, Both Luo Jiazi would find a way to stall Qin Hong at the banquet, letting Li Chen and the two sisters find an excuse to leave.

As a result, who knew that someone would completely not follow the routine.

After Li Chen saw the words on the paper, he said directly to Qin Hong: "Villa Master Qin, could it be that there is poison in this wine and food?"

This sentence stunned everyone in the hall, especially Both Luo Jiazi, who felt that Li Chen was crazy to dare to say it to his face.

Qin Hong's heart was shocked. He did such a despicable thing, and it was actually said in public. What was the difference between this and slapping him directly in the face?

Don't I have a reputation to maintain?

Qin Hong saw Luo Xi beside Li Chen and instantly understood what had happened. He erupted with the power of the Heavenly Abyss Realm and pointed angrily at Luo Xi: "Little beast, I treated you well, and you actually dare to frame me?"

For a time, terrifying energy scattered like a blast of air.

As Qin Hong got angry, some footsteps came from around, and the guards and disciples of the villa holding weapons appeared, murderous.

Seeing this scene, Luo Xi was so scared she trembled, and her mother Both Luo Jiazi was even more terrified.

She didn't understand why this young man Li Chen wanted to startle the snake; they could have found an excuse to circle around, but now that Qin Hong had torn off his mask, no one could run away.

"It's over... everything is over," Both Luo Jiazi closed her eyes in despair.

Just at this critical moment, a monstrous power erupted from Li Chen's body!
