Chapter 297: Waah… You Actually Took Advantage of Me!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
While Chu Luo was standing in line with her earpiece on, Tang Zhiyun strode in.
“Junior, let me queue up.”
Chu Luo nodded and gave him the meal card. Tang Zhiyun took it and queued up.
Chu Luo stood at the side and glanced at his clothes and the dark eye circles under his eyes. She asked, “Senior Tang, did you just come back from outside the school?”
Tang Zhiyun was wearing a casual suit and had specially combed his hair. He had always had the aura of a big brother next door. When he put on a suit, he didn’t look domineering. Instead, he looked calm and trustworthy.
He nodded. “Yes.”
Then, he said, “Junior, go sit down and wait for me. There are many people here.”
Chu Luo nodded and was about to turn around and walk towards a dining table when a boy standing beside her was suddenly pushed by someone and pounced on her.
Chu Luo turned around and walked behind Roundy.
Dong!
The boy didn’t even have time to brake before he bumped his nose into Roundy.
The loud sound of the impact made everyone else ache for him.
Roundy’s material was especially hard, making the boy see stars. After a while, he covered his nose and screamed, “Ouch! Ouch!”
In the next second.
“Waah… You actually took advantage of me! Annoying~”
Everyone was disgusted by Roundy’s shrill babyish voice.
Chu Luo raised her hand and patted Roundy’s head, gesturing for him not to be weird. She asked the boy who bumped into her with a straight face, “Why did you bump into Roundy?”
Only then did everyone know the robot’s name. They looked at the boy who was holding his nose and gasping.
The boy blushed at Chu Luo’s question. Afraid that he would be misunderstood, he quickly explained, “It wasn’t me. Someone pushed me.”
After saying that, he quickly turned around to look behind him, wanting to find the person chasing him.
Everyone standing behind him quickly clarified at the same time, “It wasn’t me.”
“It wasn’t me!”
“It’s not me either!”
…
Chu Luo glanced at the person behind him and narrowed her eyes in displeasure. In the end, her gaze landed on a pimply boy with a mole on his nose.
The pimply guy subconsciously retreated when he met Chu Luo’s gaze.
At this moment, everyone looked at him.
He was really under great pressure from being stared at. His expression darkened and he straightened his neck. “Why are you looking at me like that? I didn’t push him at all.”
Chu Luo snorted. “Since you didn’t push him, why are you looking all guilty?”
“I’m not guilty!” The boy raised his voice and spoke quickly. “If you say that I pushed him, then show me the evidence. Don’t think that just because you’re a popular person at Imperial University, you can accuse others casually.”
Tang Zhiyun, who was standing beside Chu Luo, frowned. “Junior couldn’t have wronged you.”
“Then show us the evidence.” At this point, the boy suddenly became fearless. He had deliberately avoided the person who had secretly taken photos of Chu Luo just now. It was impossible for him to be caught red-handed.
“Wronged you? I’ve never wronged anyone.” After Chu Luo spoke, she then asked Roundy, “Roundy, don’t you think so?”
“Yes.”
Roundy’s voice suddenly changed to sound like a dean’s. “We never wrong a good person or let a bad person off. Don’t you know that there are surveillance cameras at the lunch collection window?”
Everyone subconsciously looked up to look for the surveillance cameras.
Indeed, there was a circular monitor with a 180-degree rotation.
The boy’s expression changed instantly. He wanted to sneak out, but how could the boy whom he had pushed possibly allow him to do so? He grabbed his collar and said angrily, “Student, do you want to leave just like that?”
“What do you want me to do?”
“Apologize.”
“I didn’t…”
Bam!
“Ouch~~”
“Ah, sorry. My stomach is too fat. Did I bump into you?”
Everyone watched with bright eyes as Roundy knocked the boy to the ground. Not only did no one sympathize with the guy, but they even gloated.
Chu Luo patted Roundy’s head again and said, “Roundy, good knock.”
Everyone: “…”
‘Chu Luo, although you’re telling the truth, you should be more tactful!’
“No. 74, take your food.”
The chef’s voice suddenly came from behind the glass window.
Chu Luo gestured at Tang Zhiyun. “Senior, we are number 74.”
Tang Zhiyun turned around and took a look at the boy on the ground. He said to Chu Luo, “Junior, let’s go and eat.”
The two of them and the robot walked towards an empty dining table without looking back.
Behind them, the pimply guy suddenly screamed like a pig being slaughtered.
Owww~
Then, there were a few apologies.
“Ah, sorry. I didn’t see your hand.”
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to step on your foot.”
…
When Chu Luo heard this, the corners of her lips couldn’t help but curl up.
She and Tang Zhiyun found a booth and sat down. Tang Zhiyun praised Roundy with a smile. “I didn’t expect Junior’s robot to be so smart… But there are so many people in the queue. That person must’ve been hiding in the crowd. What if the surveillance cameras didn’t capture him?”
Chu Luo smiled at him. “Even if the surveillance cameras didn’t capture him, Roundy did.” She pointed at something that looked like an antenna sticking out of Roundy’s head. “It’s a 360-degree surveillance camera.”
Tang Zhiyun looked at Roundy. “Not bad.”
Roundy: “Hehe.”
Tang Zhiyun was amused by Roundy’s sudden laughter. He also laughed and said, “Junior, your robot is so interesting.”
“Of course,” Chu Luo said smugly. “I downloaded tens of thousands of local and overseas palace fighting drama and melodrama into Roundy. If we meet such villains again in the future, let him deal with them directly. It will definitely be exciting.”
Tang Zhiyun: “…”
‘Does Junior want to watch a show?’
Chu Luo started eating. After eating for a while, she asked, “Senior, what have you been doing recently?”
“I’ve been looking for a location for a work studio.”
“Haven’t you found one yet?”
“No. I want to find someplace near Imperial University so that it won’t hold us up from returning to school to attend important classes. It’s just that it’s too difficult to find an apartment near the university.”
“Senior, how big of a place are you looking for?”
“We have only a few people for now. Just a few dozen square meters will do.”
Chu Luo nodded. “I’ll help you take a look.”
“No need. Junior, your studies are important. Don’t waste your time on these matters.”
Chu Luo didn’t say anything else and continued eating.
After dinner, they walked out together. When they reached a place with no one around, Tang Zhiyun asked Chu Luo, “Junior, did something happen with Little Professor Wu’s family recently?”
Chu Luo was a little surprised. “Why do you ask that, Senior?”
“I have been texting Little Professor Wu for the past two days. She asked me not to.” Tang Zhiyun was a little sad. “I have only been sending questions about Computer Science. I didn’t say anything inappropriate.”
For the past two days, he had been a little anxious about this matter, but it wasn’t appropriate for him to go look for her directly, so he wanted to find out from Chu Luo.
Chu Luo thought for a while and said, “She probably asked you not to send messages for your own good. You must have heard some news that the gaming capsule’s research and development has been stopped.”
“I know that.” Tang Zhiyun nodded. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and looked worried. “Did something really happen and Little Professor Wu is involved?”
“It doesn’t involve her, but it’s good for you to keep in touch less often at a time like this.”
Tang Zhiyun tilted his head and glanced at Chu Luo. He pursed his lips and frowned but didn’t say anything else. However, he had made up his mind and decided to secretly send Little Professor Wu back home during this time.
Chu Luo didn’t know what Tang Zhiyun was thinking. She looked at the time and said, “I am going to the library to borrow a few books.”
“Okay. I’m going back to my dorm to talk to the others about finding a studio.”
The two of them said goodbye and left.
Not long after Chu Luo left, Roundy beeped a few times.
This was Roundy warning her that someone was following her.
Chu Luo smiled. “Looks like you haven’t given up. I’ll play with you guys.”
With that, she took out the skateboard from Roundy and walked along a secluded path with the robot.
Seeing that she had gone some distance away, the person following behind probably got a little anxious. He immediately took off and chased after her.
As Chu Luo skated, she said, “Why didn’t she send someone skilled to follow me? How boring.”
With that, she sped up and disappeared with Roundy.
When she stopped, she realized that she had reached the College of Archaeology.
Last time, she had wanted to see those antiques that could stop her from using some of her abilities. Since she had come here, she planned to go in and take a look.
There weren’t many people in the College of Archeology to begin with, let alone at noon.
Chu Luo asked Roundy to wait for her outside and walked in alone.
She walked past the courtyard planted with vines and green bamboo, passed a few rows of classrooms, turned into a long corridor, passed by a waterside pavilion, and arrived at a row of houses in the back.
On the door signs of every house, the dynasty from which the respective ancient items came were written.
Chu Luo stood in the courtyard and sensed her surroundings. She realized that the energy was emanating from the second room on the left.
She was about to walk over when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her. Then, she was asked, “Student, you’re not from our archeology department, are you? Why are you here?”
