Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At around ten o’clock, someone rudely knocked on Chu Luo’s bedroom door.
An annoyed Chu Luo raised her head from her book and looked towards the door. Without guessing, she knew that it was Chu Ting.
“Since you’re courting death, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
After saying that, she stood up and walked towards the door.
Opening the door, she found that it was indeed Chu Ting.
The moment Chu Ting saw Chu Luo, she immediately wanted to push her.
“Chu Luo, you’re real capable now, huh? How dare you…”
Chu Luo had moved to the side, so Chu Ting didn’t manage to push her. The inertia caused her to stagger into the bedroom.
The bedroom door slammed shut.
“Chu Luo, you…” Chu Ting turned around and was about to flare up.
“What are you trying to do?” Chu Luo looked at her coldly and exuded a murderous aura. Then, she grabbed Chu Ting’s arm and pushed her against the wall. With Chu Ting’s back was against the wall, Chu Luo approached her.
Chu Ting was shocked by Chu Luo’s series of actions. “You, you, you… what are you trying to do?”
“Chu Ting.” Chu Luo looked into Chu Ting’s eyes and suddenly realized that even though she and Chu Ting were twins, she was actually shorter than Chu Ting by a few centimeters. This made Chu Luo very unhappy.
However, Chu Ting mistakenly thought that she wanted to hurt her. With a pale face and trembling lips, she uttered, “You… don’t do anything rash, or else I will scream.”
“Scream?”
Chu Luo suddenly gave her an evil smirk. She raised her finger and directly hit her mute acupoint.

Chu Ting stared at Chu Luo as though she had seen a ghost. She covered her neck with her hands and opened her mouth wide, only to realize that she could not make a sound no matter what she did. Her face immediately turned red and purple, and large drops of tears rolled down her cheeks.

Chu Luo took two steps back and said coldly, “I thought that the lesson I taught you in the entertainment city would make you stay put for two days. I didn’t expect you to be so stubborn. Since that’s the case, you can stay mute.”
When she heard Chu Luo’s words, Chu Ting’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets. She pointed a trembling finger at Chu Luo, her eyes filled with rage and fear.
“Also… if you dare to complain, I’ll make sure you never open your mouth again.”
After saying that, Chu Luo pointed at the door. “Get lost.”
Chu Ting had never been treated like this by Chu Luo before. Her mouth was wide open as she wailed silently. She then turned around and opened the door quickly. She had to tell her parents about this.
Chu Luo stood behind Chu Ting and said coldly, “Chu Ting, you better think carefully before you complain. I only want you to be mute until tomorrow. If you complain, let’s make a bet to see when you can make a sound again.”
Hearing Chu Luo’s words, Chu Ting staggered and almost fell outside the door. The more Chu Luo said such things, the more Chu Ting wanted to complain. She did not believe that a doctor could not cure her throat.
At the thought of this, she quickly ran to her parents’ room on the third floor.
Knowing that Chu Ting would complain, Chu Luo sneered. Since Chu Ting liked to pretend, she would let her have a taste of her own medicine.
She closed the door, put on her coat, put away the books on the desk, turned off the light, opened the window, and jumped down.
At the same time, a shriek of fury exploded in the villa.
“Chu Luo, you wretched girl, what did you do to Tingting? I’m going to beat you to death!”
Chu Luo glanced coldly at the door that was being slammed on so hard that it could deafen one’s ears. She strolled leisurely in the backyard and only walked towards the door after a few minutes.
In the living room, all the servants were standing at the staircase and pointing upstairs.
“What did Second Miss do to make Madam so angry?”
“I couldn’t tell that the Second Miss, who usually doesn’t even dare to talk much, could actually make Madam so angry!”
Just as Chu Luo walked into the main door, there was a loud sound of the door being kicked broken.
The group of servants standing at the staircase shrunk their necks in fear.
Chu Luo looked at them and asked calmly, “What happened upstairs?”
Her voice wasn’t loud, but all of the servants miraculously heard her.
Everyone subconsciously turned to look at the door.
Then, their eyes widened in shock.
“Second Miss, why are you here?”
Chu Luo said as she walked towards the staircase, “I’ve been taking a stroll in the courtyard.”
Everyone stared at her in confusion.
Chu Luo ignored everyone’s gazes and walked up the stairs.
After going upstairs, she turned around and saw Chu Ting and Wei Guangnian standing by her bedroom door.
At this moment, Mrs. Chu was hugging Chu Ting, who was bawling her eyes out. It was as though Chu Ting was dead instead of unable to speak.
“What sin did I commit to raise such an ingrate? She even harmed her own sister. Wow…”
Chu Zhengyang rubbed his head in frustration and exhaled angrily through his nose.
It was Wei Guangnian who first noticed. “Luoluo isn’t in the bedroom. The lights are still switched off in the room. Is Tingting…”
“What’s going on?”
A crisp and baffled voice sounded.
The few people standing by the door turned to look at Chu Luo, who was standing there with a face full of confusion.
“Eh? Why is my bedroom door broken?” Ignoring Mrs. Chu’s murderous gaze, Chu Luo walked over and looked at Chu Ting, who had moisture speedily welling up in her eyes.
“You must be here to help Sister get her bank card back.”
After saying that, she ignored Chu Ting’s hateful gaze and walked in. Turning on the lights, she walked to her bag and took out two cards.
She lowered her head and handed the two cards to Mr. Chu. In a hoarse voice, she said with a sob, “Initially, I didn’t want to take away Sister’s cards, but whenever Dad sent me my living expenses, Sister would threaten me to transfer them to her. If you don’t believe me, you can check… I’ve never eaten lunch before… I want to go to university, but I’m too hungry~”
Chu Luo’s last two sentences induced heartache in those who heard her and made their hearts tremble.
When she heard this, Chu Ting’s countenance changed.
Wei Guangnian looked at Chu Ting strangely.
Mr. Chu looked at the two cards and could not reach out his hand.
In the next second, Mrs. Chu snatched the cards away from her. She did not even mention the cards. Instead, she reprimanded sternly, “Darned lass, we are talking about why you want to harm your sister!”
“I harmed my sister?” Chu Luo looked at Chu Ting in confusion. “When did I harm her? You’ve already beaten me up after I took my sister’s card. Are you going to beat me up again over that?”
Mrs. Chu was so incensed that she pointed at Chu Luo’s nose and was about to berate her. “You…”
“Enough!” Mr. Chu finally snapped at Mrs. Chu and asked Chu Luo, “Luoluo, Tingting said that you made her unable to speak…”
“Daddy!” Chu Luo suddenly raised her voice and interrupted him. “What are you talking about? I made my sister unable to speak?”

Chu Luo was more petite than Chu Ting, and she also had a pitiful appearance. Especially at this moment, her eyes were wide open in disbelief, and she looked so harmless that no one could doubt her.

Wei Guangnian, who was standing at the side, couldn’t stand it anymore and interrupted, “Uncle, Aunt, I think you should send Cousin Tingting to the hospital.”
It was obvious that Chu Ting was lying. Wei Guangnian could not understand why his aunt and uncle would still believe her.
Mr. Chu also realized this and looked at Chu Ting with a fierce expression. “Tingting, go change your clothes. I will send you to the hospital immediately.”
Chu Ting was so anxious that tears and snot were flowing down her face. She opened her mouth wide and pointed at Chu Luo, wanting to pounce on her and bite her to death.
Chu Luo hurriedly hid behind Wei Guangnian, looking like she was scared out of her wits.
By now, Mrs. Chu had also calmed down a little. With a pale face, she pulled Chu Ting towards her bedroom.
