Chapter 319 - Li Yan: “Right. I Belong to Luoluo.”
Chapter 319: Li Yan: “Right. I Belong to Luoluo.”
After dinner, they had just walked out to throw away the rubbish when they saw Tang Zhiyao and Wu Yiyao walking over from the school path.
“Little Chu.”
The moment Wu Yiyao called out, Chu Luo and Li Yan stopped and waited.
After the two of them walked over, Wu Yiyao nodded at Li Yan as a form of greeting.
Tang Zhiyun called her “Junior” and turned to Li Yan. He opened his mouth to call her Brother Chu, but when he thought of what Wang Mingtao had told them last night, he suddenly hesitated and didn’t know how to address him.
Chu Luo looked at his troubled expression and said with a smile, “Senior, you can just call him Brother Li Yan.”
“Brother Li, Li Yan?” Tang Zhiyun found the name familiar.
Wu Yiyao had never seen Li Yan in Blazing Glory, but she felt that the person in front of her was him, so she probed, “You’re the CEO of the Blazing Glory Corporation, Li Yan?”
Hearing Wu Yiyao’s question, Tang Zhiyun trembled and got a little dazed.
Especially after seeing Li Yan nod in agreement and hearing him say, “Yes.”
Tang Zhiyun: “!!!”
Seeing that the big boy beside her seemed to be frightened, Wu Yiyao nudged him with a smile.
Tang Zhiyun snapped back to reality and said in an excited and incoherent voice, “CEO… CEO Li, you are CEO Li of the Blazing Glory Corporation!”
Chu Luo was displeased with how formal he was to Li Yan and interrupted, “Call him Brother Li!”
To Tang Zhiyun, the CEO of the Blazing Glory Corporation was a legendary figure. Suddenly, he felt that he was taking advantage of him by calling him Brother.
Seeing him like this, Chu Luo guessed his thoughts and said, “Why don’t you continue calling him Brother Chu?”
She even winked at Li Yan mischievously. “He belongs to my family anyway. It’s like he’s taken my surname.”
A gentle glint flashed across Li Yan’s cold eyes. “Yes. I’m from Luoluo’s family.”
When Tang Zhiyun and Wu Yiyao saw this, they suddenly felt a little complicated. The legendary Master Li was rumored to be too “demon-like.” Standing here, Li Yan was a man who doted on the woman he loved.
This contrast was indescribable.
However, the two of them liked Chu Luo. As long as Li Yan treated Chu Luo well, they didn’t care who he was.
Thinking of this, Tang Zhiyun called out casually, “Brother Chu.”
Chu Luo nodded in satisfaction.
The four of them walked into the hall together. As they walked, Chu Luo said to the two of them, “I need a few people to monitor the entire venue from the control room tomorrow. The design of this hall is especially interesting. I’ll take you guys there to adapt first.”
“Okay.”
The four of them stayed in the control room until 10:30 PM.
Chu Luo asked Wu Yiyao, “Sister Wu, where are you resting tonight?”
Wu Yiyao told her, “I’ll stay at my father’s place later. He’ll stay in the apartment for the next two days.”
There were no outsiders here, so Wu Yiyao told her.
“The higher-ups have been more lax in monitoring Daddy and the others these past few days.”
She subconsciously looked at Li Yan and thought for a while before asking, “CEO Li, can I ask when this matter will end and when the gaming capsule can continue developing?”
“Soon.”
Wu Yiyao was relieved.
The four of them stopped when they reached the place where the bicycles were parked. Tang Zhiyun said, “Brother Chu, Junior, we won’t be going with you. I will send Little Professor Wu home first. Be careful when you go back.”
Chu Luo nodded at him. There were more people at Imperial University at this time. Li Yan also pushed a bike out and sent Chu Luo out of the school.
As the two of them walked out, they became the focus of everyone’s attention again. Especially of the foreign students, who were simply stunned.
“Does Chu Luo have a boyfriend?”
“That man looks so cool and handsome.”
“Indeed, good-looking girls have been reserved long ago.”
…
At a corner, a group of people looked at the two people who had passed by. One of them nudged Song Ci, who was standing at the side and staring in that direction. That person deliberately dragged his voice and said meaningfully:
“No wonder Chu Luo didn’t agree to accompany you to tour Imperial University tomorrow. So she’s already taken… That boyfriend of Chu Luo’s looks really charismatic. I can tell at a glance that he’s from a wealthy family… Song Ci, that’s it for you.”
Song Ci retracted his gaze and glanced at the person who said this. He then turned around and walked away.
“Hey… Song Ci, where are you going?”
Song Ci didn’t answer him and quickly left.
It wasn’t until he reached a remote place that he stopped and took out his phone to dial a number. At this moment, his expression was obscure.
When the other party picked up the call, he said in a low voice, “Go and investigate Chu Luo’s boyfriend immediately. Also… find a way to stop Imperial University’s students from competing.”
With that, he hung up the phone and strode towards the guest house.
Chu Luo and Li Yan returned to the entrance of the villa. She suddenly stopped and said to Li Yan, “I want to go the villa behind to check on those herbs. I haven’t been there for a few days. I wonder what the herbs look like.”
Li Yan nodded.
The two of them walked to the back together.
At this moment, Professor Tang and the others had returned to the other villa in front to rest. The lights in the villa behind were switched off and the door was closed.
Chu Luo had a key. She took it out and opened the door, and the two of them walked in.
Li Yan was surprised to see that almost all the herbs inside were nearly fully grown.
Chu Luo said in satisfaction, “Not bad, not bad. I can come over tomorrow night to study with Professor Tang and the others.”
After saying that, she surveyed the herbs and lastly took a look at the tonifying herbs.
When she saw the ginseng that had already bloomed, Chu Luo pointed at one of them and said to Li Yan with a grin, “Why don’t you get the butler to dig up a ginseng to nourish your body?”
Li Yan looked at her with his deep eyes and reflected on whether he had been too gentle with the little thing recently, causing her to have the illusion that she needed to nourish his body.
Li Yan didn’t answer and Chu Luo didn’t mind. She looked at the other herbs before returning to the villa they lived in.
As soon as she was done showering and was ready to sleep, a large hand was placed upon her.
Chu Luo gasped and looked up at him with eyes that had turned watery due to his touch.
“What… what do you want to do?”
Li Yan smiled at her and rolled over.
Before sealing her lips, he said, “I’ll let you check if there’s anything wrong with my body.”
“Ooh… I… I have something on tomorrow.”
“Then just check it once.”
…
That one check Li Yan mentioned was obviously much longer than usual.
When Chu Luo finally could breathe, she was so tired that she didn’t want to talk.
She left a claw mark on his chest and said in a slightly hoarse voice, “Big baddie! You’re not human!”
Li Yan’s hand massaged her waist and his lips curled into a satisfied smile. He deliberately said in a hoarse and bewitching voice by her ear, “If you have nothing on tomorrow, I can continue.”
Chu Luo’s body trembled and she buried her head in his arms. She muttered, “I’m sleepy.”
Li Yan’s smile widened and he kissed the top of her head. “Baby, good night.”
“Good night.”
The next day, Chu Luo woke up early.
She had just come out of the bathroom when her phone rang.
It was actually Nangong Yi. Nangong Yi told her, “Junior, our school’s participating student’s hand is injured.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she said, “I’ll be right there.”
Nangong Yi: “Okay.”
After hanging up, Chu Luo quickly walked downstairs.
Li Yan woke up earlier than her and was practicing in the courtyard.
Chu Luo was about to leave with her backpack when Li Yan walked over and asked, “What happened?”
“The contestant from our school is injured. I’ll go take a look.”
Li Yan followed her. “I’ll drive you there.”
Chu Luo nodded.
Li Yan went to drive. Chu Luo waited for him to drive the car over before sitting inside it. She took out her phone to look at the school’s BBS. It was still too early, and no one on the BBS had reported this matter.
She exited the BBS and sent a message to Nangong Yi.
Chu Luo: “Do you know what exactly happened?”
Nangong Yi: “I’m not sure. A girl who lives with her called me.”
As he was the president of the Student Union, Nangong Yi’s phone number was public knowledge. If serious situations arose, the Student Union would look for him.
Chu Luo didn’t ask anything further.
When the car arrived at the school, Li Yan showed his special lecturer card to the guard and drove in.
Fortunately, it was early. The car drove smoothly to the girls’ dormitory building.
Li Yan didn’t get out of the car. When Chu Luo got out, he said to her, “I’ll wait for you in the car.”
Chu Luo nodded at him and walked towards the door of the dormitory after getting off the car.
A girl was already waiting there.
When the girl saw Chu Luo walking over, she quickly welcomed her excitedly and said, “Chu Luo, please follow me.”
Chu Luo followed her inside.
The girl didn’t wait for Chu Luo to ask. As she walked, she told Chu Luo what she knew.
“At dawn, Yang Ting’s schoolmate from high school asked her to go down and get something. When she reached the stairs, she slipped for some reason and fell on her hand.”
“Where did she fall?”
“We live on the fourth floor. She fell on the stairs between the second and third floors. That high school classmate who asked her to get something from her lives on the second floor.”
The two of them quickly walked to the staircase between the second and third floors. The girl pointed at the place where Yang Ting fell. “Yang Ting said that she fell from the third step.”
Chu Luo looked at the steps and her gaze stopped at a scrap of paper in the corner of the third step.
