The Wife of the Wealthy Family Is Fierce and Cute

Chapter 86: Li Yan, Don’t You Think I’ve Grown Much Taller

“Why are you still at my house?”

As soon as Chu Luo finished speaking, she received a cold gaze.

Li Yan put down his teacup and coughed several times.

He was handsome to begin with, and as he wasn’t exuding a cold aura, his cough could immediately make one’s heart soften.

Chu Luo felt a little guilty when she thought about how she had deliberately let him soak in ice water for the entire night.

“Then… then go back after dinner.”

“It’s going to rain,” Li Yan suddenly said. Chu Luo looked at him with a dark expression.

What had the impending rain got to do with him going back?

Li Yan said lightly, “I got someone to send over a batch of precious herbs from the Changbai Mountains. The buyer recognizes only me. If you don’t want them, I can just get him to send them to my place.”

When Chu Luo heard that someone had sent him a batch of precious herbs from the Changbai Mountains, her eyes lit up. She quickly walked up to him and said, “Why did he send them to you? You don’t even know how to refine medicine.”

“I have many subordinates. There’s no shortage of people who know how to refine medicine.”

“…” Chu Luo looked at the cold man and felt anxious. She pressed his shoulder to prevent him from really leaving.

“No. Using modern instruments to refine these herbs will cause a lot of medicinal effects to disappear.”

With an unfathomable gaze, Li Yan looked at the little thing that was almost on top of him. He said in a voice that was hoarse from the cold, “I can give you those herbs too.”

Chu Luo was delighted, but looking at his cold face, she knew that he must have something else to say.

“What do you want in exchange?”

Li Yan didn’t answer that question. Instead, he said, “I have a cold.”

“Mm?”

“I asked the doctor. There are many ways to reduce a person’s temperature, but you deliberately chose the method of soaking me in ice water.”

“Erm…” Chu Luo blinked and said seriously, “Your internal energy was in a mess because of the training. That was the most effective method.”

Li Yan continued staring at her coldly.

She felt guilty again.

Chu Luo let go of his hand and took a step back. Without looking into his eyes, she said, “Then… I’ll help you treat your cold.”

“Mm.”

Li Yan stood up and walked towards the dining table.

Chu Luo looked at his back and thought about concocting a set of medicine later to ensure that he would recover from his cold by tomorrow morning after drinking it once. She wanted to see if he’d then have any excuse to talk about this in the future.

At the thought of this, she walked over as well.

Tonight’s dishes were divided into two groups. Li Yan’s side was filled with light dishes while Chu Luo’s side had meat and vegetables.

This body had been eating very well since she came. Recently, not only had she grown much taller, but she had also gained weight. Luckily, the clothes that the original Chu Luo used to wear were all loose. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to fit into them now.

She suddenly recalled Li Yan’s words and deliberately asked, “Li Yan, don’t you think I’ve grown a lot taller?”

Li Yan continued staring at her coldly.

Chu Luo stuck her arm out for him to see. “And also, I’ve put on some flesh.”

‘Hmph, you said that I don’t have any flesh on me. If this isn’t flesh, what is it?’

Li Yan: “Too skinny.”

With that, he continued eating under Chu Luo’s displeased gaze.

Chu Luo looked at her arm and wondered in what way was she skinny. Suddenly, she saw that the pants she was wearing had gotten much shorter on her, and she wondered if she should buy some clothes online later.

What made her most satisfied in this world was that she could buy anything online. Even without going out, someone could deliver anything to her.

After dinner, Chu Luo ran back to the bedroom to retrieve her tablet and sat in the living room with Li Yan. She went online to buy clothes as she waited for the herbs merchant to bring the herbs here.

Meanwhile, Li Yan attended a video conference meeting on his laptop while wearing his Bluetooth earpiece.

Chu Luo didn’t know where to buy clothes, so she searched online. Many people said that they bought clothes from a certain website.

She downloaded the Taobao[1] app and was instantly shocked when she logged in.

“That’s cheap.”

After saying this, she quickly browsed through it. She would place an order for whatever caught her eye.

Li Yan glanced at the webpage on her tablet then went back to what he was doing.
