52: The sixth woman

Zhou Luo did not know about everything that happened at the manor.

About half an hour after he returned home, Lin Zhiwei visited again, bringing the unconscious Bai Zhiyan with him.

Zhou Luo immediately had his wives and concubines take her into the room.

Lin Zhiwei still maintained his imposing demeanor. He stared at Zhou Luo and said coldly, "Why were you at Lin Daoming's manor?"

Hearing this, Zhou Luo knew that the matter should have been resolved.

He figured Lin Daoming would likely cover up his true purpose for coming to the manor, so he lied, "My concubine was abducted, so of course, I had to look for her. I happened to reach his manor and intended to ask, but then the other party didn't know either, so I left..."

Zhou Luo pushed the entire matter onto Lin Daoming, claiming he was just passing by and had no idea what was going on.

Lin Zhiwei looked suspicious but couldn't find any evidence.

Moreover, the rogue was already dead, and Lin Daoming stated that he had only chosen to act because he happened to discover his whereabouts.

Anyway, with no witnesses, he could say anything.

If Lin Daoming were just a minor figure, he might have taken him back for interrogation directly.

But not only was he a Qi Training stage, eighth level Cultivator and a Spiritual Talisman Master, he also belonged to the Great Elder's faction, making it difficult for him to do so.

In the end, Lin Zhiwei didn't ask any more questions and left with his people.

During the subsequent investigation, the Zhou Family discovered that this rogue was actually a Disciple of an evil Sect like the Joyful Union Sect.

Thus, they naturally assumed that the other party intended to abduct Bai Zhiyan to enhance his cultivation.

After all, she was the Lin Family's only outsider and possessed a Six-Rank Spiritual Root.

As for how he infiltrated the Zhou Family, everything remained unknown.

Since this matter did not cause any adverse effects, the Zhou Family did not pursue it further.

However, after some Time, Lin Daoming was suddenly transferred to the Spirit Mine.

Of course, these were matters for later.

In the room, Zhou Luo quietly waited for her to wake up, while silently putting the bottle of Bone Erosion Powder into his inventory.

Fortunately, abducting Bai Zhiyan this time was not Lin Daoming's intention.

That's why he acted so decisively.

It's likely he was also being used and didn't know Bai Zhiyan's true identity.

Regardless, this matter progressed even more smoothly than expected.

Especially since it didn't affect him.

At this moment, Bai Zhiyan's eyelashes fluttered, and she suddenly opened her eyes.

When she saw Zhou Luo beside her, she almost instinctively sprang up from the bed, hugged him tightly, and sobbed uncontrollably, "I thought I would never see you again."

Zhou Luo gently patted her back and said softly, "It's alright now."

But this only made Bai Zhiyan cry even louder.

Earlier, she had woken up once.

Then she found herself taken to a strange room.

Upon realizing she had been abducted, she recalled her previous painful memories.

Endless fear and despair enveloped her heart. Before she could react, the other party forcibly fed her a Pill, and then she lost consciousness.

Originally, she thought she would fall into a demonic lair again in this life, but when she opened her eyes, she saw Zhou Luo's familiar face.

For a moment, countless complex emotions surged into her heart. She could no longer bear it, and her emotions completely broke down.

At this moment, it was as if she wanted to vent all her grievances and fears.

Zhou Luo let her cry until her voice gradually subsided.

"Such a thing will never happen again in the future," Zhou Luo continued to comfort her.

At this moment, Bai Zhiyan suddenly looked up, her eyes red, and choked out, "Zhou Luo, marry me!"

During her Time at Zhou Garden, her relationship with Zhou Luo grew closer, and her heart gradually became reliant on this perfect man.

Originally, she was still struggling with whether her feelings for him were true love.

But at this moment, after experiencing such a significant upheaval, she suddenly realized that she couldn't live without him.

If this wasn't considered love, she didn't know what was.

Zhou Luo was taken aback.

He didn't expect her to say such a thing.

His gaze was gentle. He reached out his right hand, gently wiped away her tears, and asked in a calm voice, "Are you sure?"

"Mm-hmm," Bai Zhiyan said with determined eyes.

...

Bai Zhiyan's decision was unexpected yet reasonable.

Since she was devoted to him, Zhou Luo naturally wouldn't refuse.

After Bai Zhiyan woke up, the Cultivators Lin Zhiwei left at Zhou Garden asked some questions as per routine.

They still got nothing.

As long as Bai Zhiyan insisted she was abducted to Maple Leaf City, the Zhou Family would definitely not be able to trace it further even if they wanted to.

As for sending people to determine the truthfulness of Bai Zhiyan's words.

Zhou Luo believed the Zhou Family wouldn't go to such great lengths.

After all, this matter also involved a significant figure like Lin Daoming.

It was likely that major issues would be reduced to minor ones, and minor issues would disappear in the end.

That night in the room, Zhou Luo and Bai Zhiyan sat side by side on the edge of the bed.

"Zhou Luo, shouldn't there be a ceremony for marriage?" Bai Zhiyan asked timidly.

"Doing this now would be a bit abrupt, but don't worry, I'll make it up to you when there's an opportunity in the future," Zhou Luo said, holding her fair, soft little hand.

"Mm-hmm, then from now on... should I call you... Husband?" Bai Zhiyan asked nervously.

"Of course."

Zhou Luo turned sideways and looked at her affectionately.

Under the candlelight, Bai Zhiyan's exquisite and perfect face was tinged with a faint blush, evoking a strong desire to protect her.

"It's Time to sleep."

Zhou Luo's mellow voice slowly sounded. His left hand moved slightly, and the candlelight quietly extinguished.

In the darkness, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her.

"Husband... Mmm... Unh..."

...

The next morning.

Sunlight streamed through the window onto the comfortable quilt. Zhou Luo slightly opened his eyes, and what came into view was a fair and slender arm.

The naked Bai Zhiyan was wrapped in the quilt, hugging his neck, like a little kitten, endearing and lovable.

Like many mornings, her long legs were resting on Zhou Luo. Only this Time, because she wasn't wearing clothes, a large expanse of snow-white skin was revealed.

Zhou Luo thoughtfully pulled the quilt over her, leaned down and gently kissed her forehead, then gently removed her hand and placed it on the pillow, just as he was about to get out of bed.

But then Bai Zhiyan suddenly reached out and grabbed him.

Zhou Luo looked back.

He saw her looking at him shyly, her bright and beautiful eyes filled with tenderness. She called out, "Husband."

Her charming voice made Zhou Luo's heart stir. He smiled and lay back in the quilt.

In his previous life, Zhou Luo heard people say that a woman is actually a city.

When the city gates are wide open, there is only one thing you need to do.

That is to gallop on horseback.

It wasn't until close to noon that the city gradually quieted down.

Zhou Luo gently held her in his arms and lightly stroked her fair and delicate face.

Bai Zhiyan seemed to really enjoy being stroked. She narrowed her eyes, her expression lazy, leaning tightly against Zhou Luo, enjoying the taste of love.

"Husband, I want to have your children."

After a long Time, Bai Zhiyan suddenly said.

She already liked children. Now that she was naturally together with Zhou Luo, the first thought that popped into her mind was to have a child that belonged to both of them.

Zhou Luo smiled and stroked her little head, "Then I'll have to work hard."

Hearing this, Bai Zhiyan's face turned red, and she buried her head in his arms.
