Chapter 368: These People Must Be Jealous of Your Beauty
Hearing everyone’s discussion, Gu Lexuan, who happened to pass by, was so angry that she twisted the book in her hand.
“Sister Gu, don’t be angry. These people must be jealous of your beauty and said that on purpose.”
“That’s right. I don’t think Chu Luo didn’t care. Maybe she used many methods to canvass for votes in private those few days. Isn’t Chu Luo a computer expert? Maybe she did something using her computer and easily stole many votes.”
“That’s right. If she didn’t canvass for votes, why would she have so many votes?”
Gu Lexuan became more and more annoyed. “Shut up, all of you!”
After saying that, she shouted at them angrily, “It’s none of my business whether Chu Luo canvassed for votes or not. Don’t mention her in front of me again.”
With that, she walked away.
The two girls following her looked at each other and quickly followed.
…
Chu Luo didn’t care what everyone thought.
When she and Nangong Yi arrived at the school gate, the cadres of the Student Union were already waiting there.
When Yu Tong saw the two of them coming, she immediately walked up to Chu Luo and said excitedly, “Chu Luo, all thanks to you, we finally got the president to go to a gathering with us.”
Chu Luo tilted her head and glanced at Nangong Yi before asking Yu Tong, “Is Nangong Yi very stingy?”
“No way…” Yu Tong blinked at Chu Luo when Nangong Yi looked over and deliberately raised her voice. “Actually, the president is very generous. He pays for our gatherings every time, but he won’t participate nine and a half out of ten times. ”
“What do you mean by nine and a half out of ten times?”
“Because even if the president went to a gathering with us, he would leave halfway.”
Chu Luo glanced at Nangong Yi again.
Nangong Yi looked back at her with his smiling eyes and explained, “This is a misunderstanding.”
Chu Luo asked awkwardly, “You’re not leaving halfway again tonight, are you?”
She had that thought too!
Nangong Yi smiled and said, “I’ll leave whenever you leave.”
Everyone looked at Chu Luo with bright eyes.
Chu Luo: “…”
The place where Nangong Yi invited everyone to eat was not far from the West Gate of Imperial University. It was close to the park, and there was a lake behind. The boss had built a huge waterside pavilion on the lake, and many white curtains floated on the waterside pavilion.
The waterside pavilion was divided into two sides. An ancient zither was placed on one side. Beside the ancient zither sat a beautiful woman dressed in a classical white clothes playing the ancient zither. On the other side, there were also a few beautiful women dressed in fluttering white clothes dancing.
Everyone was brought to a private room. There were no walls separating the private room from the lake, only railing.
Many people went to the railing to watch the beauties play the zither and dance the moment they entered.
“Wow, this place is too artistic. We can actually enjoy musical and dance performances while eating.”
“If I had known that the president would invite us to eat at such a place, I would have definitely put on the ancient costume I bought previously.”
“Me too.”
Nangong Yi glanced at the person lying there and gestured for Chu Luo to enter.
After the two of them walked to the dining table and sat down, Nangong Yi asked Chu Luo, “How is it, Junior? The environment here isn’t bad, right?”
Chu Luo looked around. The decorations in the private room were also very elegant. There were actually the Four Treasures of the Study[1] on one side.
Seeing her look over, Nangong Yi smiled and said, “Junior, do you want to draw a painting to liven up the atmosphere?”
The boss personally received them. When he heard Nangong Yi say this, he smiled and said, “The Four Treasures of the Study here are specially prepared for guests. After the guests finish painting, they can take them away or sell them to me.”
When the others heard this, they all walked over and looked at Chu Luo expectantly.
“Chu Luo, write me a calligraphy piece.”
“Chu Luo, just casually draw a painting for me.”
“Chu Luo…”
…
“Shh…” Chu Luo raised a finger to her lips and made a gesture to silence them. After everyone stopped, she said, “I won’t touch the brush tonight. ”
Everyone was a little disappointed.
Nangong Yi smiled at them.
Chu Luo’s eyes darted around and she pointed at him. “You can get Nangong Yi to help you write or draw. I believe he is also not bad at calligraphy and painting.”
Yu Tong immediately chimed in, “That’s right. The president is going overseas to study next semester. He has to leave us some form of keepsake.”
The others voiced their agreement.
Nangong Yi laughed. “My calligraphy skills aren’t as good as Chu Luo’s.”
Chu Luo curled her lips. “It’s okay. None of us will mind.”
“That’s right, President. Write for us. You write so beautifully with a pen. Your calligraphy skills must be excellent too. Please do it.”
“Yeah, please write.”
Nangong Yi stood up under everyone’s expectant expressions. He said, “I’ll only write one piece. You can decide who it’ll be given to later.”
“No way. There are so many of us. Boss, aren’t you writing a calligraphy piece to cause internal strife among us?”
“This has nothing to do with me.”
After Nangong Yi said these irresponsible words, he walked over.
Everyone immediately surrounded him.
Chu Luo didn’t intend to squeeze with them. She walked to the railing and leaned against it to look at the women dancing on the waterside pavilion.
Soon, everyone’s praises came from behind.
“Wow, the president’s handwriting is so beautiful!”
“How domineering!”
“He really has the demeanor of a calligraphy master!”
Chu Luo tilted her head and looked over, just in time to see Nangong Yi shake up the drawing paper and dry the ink.
Then, he said, “Go eat first. After you’re done, you can decide who wants this calligraphy piece.”
Just as he finished speaking, the boss brought two service staff in to serve the dishes.
The dishes were sumptuous and looked delicious.
Looking at these dishes, Chu Luo suggested, “In such an environment and atmosphere, there should be wine.”
Everyone agreed with this suggestion.
Nangong Yi, who was sitting at the side, asked in surprise, “Junior, you know how to drink?”
Chu Luo glanced at him. “Do you want to compete?”
“Yo, I couldn’t tell. Chu Luo, how dare you challenge the president. You probably don’t know, but the president never gets drunk.”
Chu Luo raised her eyebrows. “Oh?”
Nangong Yi also raised his eyebrows. “Junior, do you still want to compete with me?”
“Yes.” Chu Luo nodded affirmatively.
The others were excited. Zhang Yiran immediately called out to the boss, “Boss, serve us some wine.”
The boss came over and asked, “We have self-made fruit wine here. I wonder if you want to try it.”
“Is the alcohol content high?”
“25%.”
“Yes, five bottles…”
“Fifty bottles first,” Chu Luo said.
Everyone looked at her with bright eyes.
“Chu Luo, aren’t 50 bottles too much?” Yu Tong whispered worriedly.
“Is it a lot? There are so many of us.” If she hadn’t promised Li Yan to drink less outside, Chu Luo would have told the boss to bring them as many bottles as possible.
“Not a lot.” Nangong Yi said to the boss, “We’ll take 50 bottles.”
Everyone turned their bright gazes to Nangong Yi, feeling that the president had gone a little overboard tonight.
Chu Luo said to everyone, “If he gets drunk, you can bring him back to school to stay for the night.”
When the girls heard this, their eyes lit up.
Nangong Yi: “…”
A boy couldn’t help but ask, “Chu Luo, what if you get drunk?”
“If I get drunk… Someone from my family will come to pick me up, of course.”
“…”
The boss quickly brought over 50 bottles of wine for them. Since so much wine was brought over, they immediately filled the drawing table beside them, and some bottles were even placed on the ground.
The boys went over to get more than ten bottles and poured everyone a glass.
There was no cadre of the Student Union who didn’t know how to drink. The strong fragrance of wine accompanied by the fragrance of fruits instantly filled the entire room.
Chu Luo picked up her glass and said to everyone, “I have something to attend to for the next ten days. You can do whatever you want regarding the president’s election.”
“Eh? Chu Luo, why are you taking such a long leave?”
“Did something happen?”
“How can we continue without you?”
…
Seeing that everyone was getting more and more reluctant to part with her, Nangong Yi laughed and said, “Just because Chu Luo isn’t coming to school doesn’t mean that she can’t get online. I haven’t even retired, and you’re already siding with her?”
Chu Luo nodded. “Yes, I can go online, but it’s best if you don’t look for me for no reason.”
After saying that, she drank the wine in the glass in one go.
After drinking it, she smacked her lips and nodded. “Not bad, it smells good.”
The others were looking at her speechlessly. Hearing her words, they immediately picked up their glasses and drank.
After a glass of wine, everyone let themselves go.
Everyone chatted and laughed as they drank and ate.
Everyone kept toasting Nangong Yi and Chu Luo.
It seemed like they really wanted to see the two of them drunk.
However, everyone was disappointed.
One of them became more and more sober as he drank, while the other drank like she was drinking water.
After 20 of the 50 bottles of wine were finished, a few people pleaded for mercy.
“I can’t take it anymore. I can’t take it anymore. I didn’t feel anything when I drank this wine and ended up drinking too much. It got to my head. I’m going to rest.”
“I can’t take it anymore either. I admit defeat. I’ll go watch the beauties dance on the waterside pavilion.”
Many people ran to the railing and leaned against it to watch the dance.
