Chapter 211 - Miss Chu, Can You Wake Master Up?
Chapter 211: Miss Chu, Can You Wake Master Up?
Chu Luo had joined the research and development team of the gaming capsule. Although these researchers didn’t say anything on the surface, they didn’t think highly of her in private.
“That girl is too young. Does she know what Hypertext-Preprocessor, Active-Server-Page, etc., are?”
“The higher-ups made too hasty a decision. She’s only good at playing games and knows how to use the empire’s Art of War. Letting her join our core research and development team is simply child’s play.”
“I only hope she doesn’t cause trouble for us. If she only stays quietly by the side and watches, I don’t think it’s a big deal. After all, it’s also a form of enjoyment to look at a beautiful girl after facing a sea of data every day.”
“Haha! That’s right!”
…
At lunchtime, Chu Luo and Professor Wu had just returned from the restaurant when they heard the two voices discussing.
Professor Wu subconsciously looked at Chu Luo.
Chu Luo’s expression was very calm, as if the people inside weren’t talking about her.
Professor Wu admired her calmness and couldn’t help but ask, “Little Chu, aren’t you angry to hear them say that?”
Chu Luo turned to look at him. She blinked and asked, “Is anger useful?”
Professor Wu realized that he was stunned by the little girl’s question.
Chu Luo smiled confidently. “The best way to shut them up is to prove my strength.”
With that said, she walked in.
When the two people discussing Chu Luo saw her and Professor Wu enter, they first had an embarrassed look on their faces. Then, they remembered that they weren’t wrong and walked away as if nothing had happened.
This continued into the afternoon.
Everyone had their own tasks. Chu Luo had just entered and had yet to be assigned any task.
She didn’t idle around. Electronic devices couldn’t be brought in here, so she specially prepared a pen and a notebook. As she listened to their discussion, she quickly took down notes. When these people rested halfway, she looked at the notes and compared them with the operations of the programs.
This was the first day.
The second day.
The third day.
…
On the fifth day, someone finally couldn’t help but ask Chu Luo, “Little girl, I see that you’ve been writing and drawing in your notebook. Do you understand or not?”
Chu Luo put away the pen in her hand and said, “I do.”
When the others heard this, they all revealed looks of disbelief.
Chu Luo glanced at everyone and walked to the gaming capsule. She started talking about the drawbacks that they hadn’t discovered. “Here, since it’s a space converter, why do you only use…”
Everyone listened to Chu Luo’s words with the attitude of watching a show. As they listened, everyone was stunned by her logic and powerful comprehension.
Half an hour later, Chu Luo finished speaking.
She looked at everyone and deliberately asked, “How is it?”
The person who asked her the question first applauded for her, and then the others followed suit.
Professor Wu stood at the side and gave Chu Luo a thumbs up.
Then, the others who had ignored Chu Luo for five days also started to warm up to her.
Chu Luo officially joined in.
As the technicians were in Imperial University for a secret project, Chu Luo had to keep her entry and exit into Imperial University this month a secret too.
For convenience, she simply applied for a dormitory unit in the school in a building where PhD students lived.
Every building here was separated by a distance, and there was greenery in the middle. As long as one paid attention, one wouldn’t be noticed or disturbed.
Chu Luo hadn’t gone out since the first day she moved here. In the day, she studied with the technicians of the gaming capsule with Professor Wu. In the morning, she wore earphones to listen to several foreign languages. Then, she took a stroll on the nearby path. At night, she browsed through a large amount of information on computers. If she didn’t understand anything, she would directly contact Professor Wu and ask him to teach her through video.
Professor Wu couldn’t help but sigh. “Little Chu has the highest IQ score and is the most hardworking person I’ve ever seen.”
While the entire research team was praising Chu Luo, someone was unhappy.
This person was Li Yan.
He’d been waiting at home for five days, but his little thing still hadn’t called or texted him, let alone sent a video message. Master Li finally couldn’t sit still anymore.
That night, Chu Luo returned from the science building at ten o’clock as usual.
Ever since Imperial University opened, the school grounds had become lively.
In order to avoid peak periods, Chu Luo usually waited until there were fewer people before she strolled back while thinking about various procedures.
But tonight, just as she reached a small forest, someone suddenly flashed out from there, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her back into it.
Chu Luo immediately realized who it was.
With her back against a tree, Chu Luo looked at the cold face inches from hers and asked in confusion, “Li Yan, why are you here?”
Li Yan looked at the beautiful face in front of him and said with a dark expression, “I was just passing by.”
When Chu Luo heard this, the corners of her lips curled up. She raised her hands and wrapped them around his neck. Then, she stood on tiptoes and rubbed her face against his handsome one. In a clear and pleasant voice, she said, “You’re lying.”
Li Yan couldn’t maintain the coldness on his face due to Chu Luo’s intimate actions. He hugged her waist and asked in a low voice by her ear, “Why didn’t you contact me these past few days?”
“I’m not free.”
As soon as Chu Luo finished speaking, she tightened her grip on his waist.
Chu Luo’s body was pressed against his and she could feel the powerful aura emanating from his body. Li Yan’s voice deepened. “You’re so busy that you even turned off your phone?”
Chu Luo blinked and said innocently, “I turn off my phone during the day.”
“What about at night?”
“I forget to turn it on at night.”
Li Yan pursed his lips and looked at her, thinking about how to punish this little thing who had no self-awareness at all.
Chu Luo immediately sensed his thoughts. She rubbed his chin fawningly and said in a soft voice, “Don’t be angry with me.”
Li Yan’s heart instantly melted at her soft fawning voice.
He lowered his head to seal her mouth, which he had been missing for five days, but at this moment, an intimate sound of clothes rubbing came from the side.
Following that was a girl’s suppressed voice. “What if someone comes over?”
“What are you afraid of? As long as you don’t make a sound, everything will be fine.”
Then, there was an even more intimate sound.
When Chu Luo heard this, her face turned red.
She buried her head in his shoulder and said sheepishly, “Let’s get out of here.”
Li Yan definitely wasn’t willing to let his little wife listen to others getting intimate either. He let go of her hand and led her out of the woods.
After walking out of the woods, Chu Luo tilted her head to look at Li Yan’s profile. She was delighted, and the corners of her lips curled up.
The two of them walked for a while and arrived in front of the dormitory building where Chu Luo was staying. Li Yan’s voice was slightly low. “Open the door.”
Chu Luo searched in her pocket for a while, then looked at him. She blinked innocently. “I think I forgot to bring my key when I left this morning.”
Actually, it wasn’t that she’d forgotten about it this morning, but she’d forgotten about it every day. She’d conjured the key every day with magic, but she didn’t want to do that today.
Li Yan looked at her and touched her head.
As Chu Luo stared at him in a daze, he took out a card and opened the door.
Chu Luo stood there and looked at him.
Li Yan turned around and pulled her inside.
As the two of them walked, he asked, “Where have you been eating for the past few days?”
“Our technicians eat at a designated restaurant.”
“Who prepares supper for you at night?”
“I eat with the professor and the others before coming back.”
As the two of them chatted, they walked to the sofa. Chu Luo sat on the sofa and subconsciously picked up the book on the coffee table to read.
Li Yan sat over and took the book out of her hand. “Do you have a housekeeper?”
Chu Luo shook her head. “I don’t need a housekeeper. I can just conjure whatever I want.”
She tapped her finger on the coffee table and a plate of fruits and a pot of steaming tea appeared in front of Li Yan.
Chu Luo smiled at him proudly. “The magic I learned in the US is very useful.”
She then asked him, “What do you want? I can conjure it for you.”
Li Yan looked at her face and said, “You.”
“Hm?” Chu Luo didn’t react for a moment and tilted her head to look at him in confusion.
Li Yan moved closer to her and said in a low, hoarse voice, “I want you.”
With that, he used his actions to tell her how much he wanted her…
After heavens knew how long.
When Chu Luo fell asleep in his arms, she remembered and muttered, “I haven’t studied tonight.”
When Li Yan heard this, he gave her a passionate kiss that made her forget to study.
After that, he asked, “Are you tired?”
Chu Luo nodded in a daze.
Li Yan hugged her in his arms and caressed her smooth back. “Be good. Go to sleep if you’re tired.”
“Mm…”
Chu Luo slowly closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep.
Li Yan hugged her and closed his eyes.
However, after he’d been sleeping for two hours, his phone suddenly rang.
Li Yan quickly switched off his phone when Chu Luo was woken up and took a look.
After that, he gently put her on the bed and left the bedroom. As he walked towards the living room, he called back.
“Speak.”
After a while, he said, “Continue searching.”
Then he hung up.
After hanging up the phone, he was about to go back to his room when his phone rang again.
Li Yan picked up the call and was about to return to the bedroom when the bedroom door suddenly opened. Chu Luo was standing by the door in her slippers, rubbing her eyes as she looked at him.
Li Yan quickly walked over and asked in a soft voice, “Why are you up?”
Chu Luo looked up at him, her eyes hazy from sleep. “I thought you’d left.”
Li Yan’s heart fluttered at her words. He bent down and carried her before walking towards the bed.
As he walked, he said, “I just took a call.”
Chu Luo leaned into his arms and nodded before closing her eyes again.
Li Yan looked at the little thing who fell asleep the moment she touched the bed, his heart brimming with fondness.
He put his phone on silent mode and continued to sleep with her in his arms.
The night passed.
The next day, Chu Luo woke up early.
When she opened her eyes, Li Yan was still asleep.
Chu Luo didn’t move. She looked up at his handsome face.
She then realized that there was a faint green color below his eyelids.
“How long has it been since you had a good rest?”
She couldn’t help but raise her arm and tap his eyelids with her finger. With a spell, he fell soundly asleep.
Only then did Chu Luo get up to wash up. She originally wanted to take a book to read, but as she walked out of the bedroom, Li Yan’s phone suddenly lit up.
Chu Luo walked over and saw that it was a call from Qin Ming. She picked up the call.
She said, “Li Yan isn’t awake yet.”
Qin Ming was silent for a while before saying, “Miss Chu, can you wake Master up?”
Chu Luo frowned. “Can’t you let him sleep a little longer and talk about this later?”
Qin Ming was silent for a while before saying, “Something happened to the people we sent to look for the Flaming Phoenix Grass.”
