Chapter 291: I Won’t Make You Angry
When Chu Luo went to the villa at the back to do the experiment, she had left her phone with the butler.
She nodded and continued walking towards the door.
The butler followed and said, “President Jin from the Metaphysics Society called you at around eight. President Jin asked me to tell you to call him back immediately after you’re done.”
Chu Luo was a little curious about why President Jin was looking for her. After walking back to the villa, she called him back.
Unexpectedly, President Jin called her to talk about going to the northwest.
President Jin said over the phone, “Master Chu, the national archaeology team discovered a legendary ancient tomb near the ancient ruins of the northwest Loulan Kingdom. They want to invite our Metaphysics Society to go with them. I want to ask, would you want to go?”
Hearing this, Chu Luo frowned unconsciously. She asked, “Which dynasty’s ancient tomb is it?”
“It’s not stated in the history books, but this ancient dynasty does exist in the long river of history. It’s said that everything inside it is very magical.”
“Are you sure it’s that ancient tomb?”
“I’m not sure yet, but since the national archeological team is looking for us, there must be something.”
“Mm, I’ll consider it.”
Chu Luo hung up after saying that.
After hanging up the phone, she went upstairs to wash up.
Tonight, she didn’t read. Instead, she searched for many things regarding the ancient tomb on the Internet. The more she searched, the more her brows furrowed.
“What a bunch of fools.”
“Phoenix Skies Dynasty does indeed have many abilities that this era doesn’t have, but it’s not like how the legends say at all. There aren’t medicines for immortality or cultivation techniques that can make people immortal.
“Ha! Cultivation to become immortal.”
After Chu Luo finished reading all the legends about the ancient tomb that she could find, she put down her phone and lay down.
However, she couldn’t fall asleep no matter which way she lay. There was burning anger in her heart.
She didn’t know for how long she lay in bed, but she eventually got off the bed and put on a coat before walking to the study.
She went to the study and connected to Chen Xuan in the US.
Chen Xuan seemed very busy. When he picked up the call, he even signed a document before smiling at Chu Luo. “Little Boss, if I remember correctly, it should be past midnight on your side. Why aren’t you resting?”
Chu Luo smiled and said, “I couldn’t sleep, so I came to ask how things were on your side.”
“Very busy.” Although Chen Xuan said that he was busy, his tone was very pleasant. “Our products are too popular in the US. I was planning to find time to ask you, Little Boss. Isn’t it time for our company to open a branch company?”
Chu Luo nodded. “Sure. You can handle this matter.”
“Okay.” Chen Xuan was very touched by Chu Luo’s trust in him. The smile on his face deepened.
The two of them chatted for a while more, then Chen Xuan suddenly stopped talking.
“Little Boss, I think there’s something I should tell you.”
“What is it?”
“It’s about Princess Anya.”
“Her? What did she do?”
“Recently, Princess Anya has been sending her personal guard to look for me for the formula of our beauty products.”
When she heard this, Chu Luo’s face darkened. “Did she interfere with the company?”
“No. It’s just that her people came to look for me a few times in private, but I dodged them all. Initially, I’d planned to look for the manager of Master Li’s company if her people came again.”
Previously, Li Yan had said that if anything happened to Chu Luo’s company, he should immediately look for the regional manager of the Blazing Glory Corporation to have them deal with it. He didn’t have to look for Chu Luo for no reason. She was very busy with her studies.
Chu Luo thought for a while and said, “I’ll resolve this matter.”
With that, she ended the video call with him.
Then, Chu Luo called Anya.
Anya picked up the call quickly and said in a surprised tone, “Chu Luo, it’s incredible that you would call me.”
Chu Luo couldn’t be bothered to keep her guessing. She said directly, “If you want the formula of my cosmetics, you can call me directly. Why make things difficult for my employees?”
“When did I ask for the formula of your cosmetics?” Anya’s voice suddenly rose. “Chu, what are you talking about? I didn’t even have such an idea!”
When Chu Luo heard this, she snorted. “Your personal guard looked for Chen Xuan several times in private. How can that be fake?”
“Impossible, impossible!” Anya was obviously anxious. “Chu, believe me. I really don’t have such intentions.”
Chu Luo actually believed Anya when she said that she didn’t do it. Other than the fact that Anya was a little spoiled, she was actually a good person. However, Chen Xuan wouldn’t lie.
She said, “Since your men sought out Chen Xuan, you should resolve this matter properly. Otherwise, you won’t have any more cosmetics and skincare products.”
“Hey, hey, hey… Chu Luo, how can you treat me like this?”
Chu Luo hung up the phone as Anya went crazy upon hearing that she would no longer be supplied with cosmetics products. She believed that Anya would resolve this matter quickly.
Just as she was about to return to the bedroom, the study door suddenly opened.
She saw Li Yan, who was wearing only a shirt and had unbuttoned two buttons, walk in.
Chu Luo sat there and smiled at him. “Yan, you’re back.”
Li Yan strode to her side and bent down to kiss her on the lips. “Why aren’t you asleep?”
He moved to stand up straight.
But Chu Luo reached out to grab his collar first. She blinked her big eyes at him and said, “I can’t sleep.”
Li Yan chuckled, his laughter filled with joy and enchantment. “Can’t sleep without me hugging you?”
Chu Luo blushed. “No way.”
After saying that, she let go of his collar and extended her arms. “Hug me.”
Li Yan’s heart fluttered at her wheedling manner. He carried her horizontally and asked as he walked out of the study, “Is there something on your mind?”
“Mm.” Chu Luo leaned her face against his chest and said angrily, “Why does everyone want to find that ancient tomb?”
When Li Yan heard this, he stopped in his tracks. He looked down at her profile and asked, “Does Luoluo not want those people to go down to that ancient tomb?”
“Not really.” After Chu Luo finished speaking, she hugged his neck tightly and said, “But they can’t enter the main tomb.”
A glint flashed across Li Yan’s eyes. He hugged her tightly and quickly walked back to the bedroom.
After a hearty exercise, Chu Luo fell asleep from exhaustion.
Li Yan hugged her and kissed her rosy face a few times before saying in a hoarse voice, “Baby, as long as you don’t want it, I’ll definitely do my best to stop them.”
With that, he hugged her and fell asleep.
The next morning, Chu Luo received a call from Anya.
Anya said over the phone, “Chu Luo, I’ve already investigated the matter. It was indeed one of my guards who went to threaten your employee, but it really wasn’t me who sent him. It was my third brother who caused this. Don’t worry, I will definitely talk to my third brother about this matter.”
Despite everything, Chu Luo was still very satisfied with her actions, so she responded with an “Mm.” However, she looked at Li Yan, who was practicing in the courtyard, and said, “I understand. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up.”
“Chu, wait.” Anya quickly stopped her and asked worriedly, “Chu, you’re going to take back what you said before, right?”
“That’ll depend on your performance.”
Chu Luo hung up and strode out towards the courtyard.
Li Yan was practicing a fist technique. Chu Luo watched for a while and said to him, “Yan, let’s spar.”
“Okay.”
The two of them started sparring.
Twenty minutes later, Chu Luo couldn’t stand it anymore. “Why are your skills getting better and better?”
Li Yan looked at her pouting lips and wiped the sweat off her nose. “The internal energy you taught me to cultivate is very good.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she muttered, “If I had known that the disciple would starve the master to death, I would have definitely held back.”
When Li Yan heard this, he carried her over and smacked her lips.
Chu Luo blushed. “How… how can you kiss me here!”
Li Yan laughed softly. “I just couldn’t help it.”
After saying that, he tilted his head and said in her ear, “It’s too late to regret it now. If you hit me in anger in the future, at least I won’t suffer internal injuries.”
Chu Luo laughed when she heard this.
“I’m not going to hit you.”
After saying that, she struggled out of his arms and turned to walk towards the living room. As she walked, she said, “If I get angry with you, I won’t let you into the bedroom.”
Li Yan quickly followed her and grabbed her wrist by the door. He led her to the dining table and said seriously, “I won’t make you angry.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she couldn’t help but purse her lips and laugh secretly.
After the meal, Chu Luo went to school.
She had just walked into the school gate when someone stopped her.
“Chu Luo.”
Chu Luo recognized this person. It was the girl who had stopped her at the entrance of the Student Union, Zhang Yiran.
Zhang Yiran was wearing a denim dress and a pair of casual sneakers with her hair tied up in a bun. She was originally a sweet and charming person, so she looked even more refreshing today.
No one would be able to imagine how she could have provoked Chu Luo like an idiot.
Chu Luo stopped and looked at her. “Is something the matter?”
Zhang Yiran smiled, but there was a hint of calculation in it. “I heard that you want to run for the Student Union office. Coincidentally, I have a mission here. Why don’t you help me do it? I’ll vote for you then.”
