Chapter 372: You’re Too Much Like Your Grandma
“Yes, you’re too alike. You two look like you were carved from the same mold.”
At this point, a gentle reminiscent look appeared on Old Master Sun’s face.
“Your grandmother was a beautiful and mysterious woman. She was especially skilled. Back then, the relationship between the empire and a few countries was a little tense.
“I remember when your grandfather and I led our troops to war and were surrounded by the enemy army. She was the one who went deep into the enemy’s headquarters and blew up that place and saved us.”
Chu Luo opened her mouth to say something, but she didn’t know what to say.
As Old Master Sun spoke, a complicated expression appeared on his face. “Later on, she married your grandfather and gave birth to your mother. Suddenly, she disappeared one day.”
As Old Master Sun spoke, a teardrop flowed from his eye.
“Later on, your grandfather went crazy and searched for her everywhere. Even until your grandfather passed away from illness, he still couldn’t find her.”
Chu Luo was silent for a while before finally asking, “How did she disappear?”
“I don’t know.” Old Master Sun actually started crying. “Yichen never told anyone how your grandmother disappeared, so even if I wanted to help, I couldn’t.”
Chu Luo looked at Old Master Sun strangely.
Other than being interested in the original Chu Luo’s grandmother who resembled her, she was not interested in the other family members of the original Chu Luo at all.
Chu Luo thought for a while and went over to get a tissue to wipe his tears.
Old Master Sun looked at Chu Luo, who was helping him wipe his tears, and suddenly felt a little stunned. After a while, he finally retracted his tears and said, “I was too agitated. You’ve never seen your maternal grandparents or mother before. You probably don’t feel much hearing me say these things.”
Chu Luo nodded honestly.
Old Master Sun was still provoked by her lack of feelings.
His sons had sent people to investigate Chu Luo and had also told Old Master Sun about Chu Luo’s situation in the Chu family. Therefore, Old Master Sun subconsciously thought that Chu Zhengyang and his wife had deliberately not let Chu Luo know. He couldn’t help but feel indignant towards Chu Zhengyang and his wife.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door. Then, Sun Tianhao pushed it open and walked in.
“Grand… Chu Luo, why are you here?”
Chu Luo and Old Master Sun turned to look at Sun Tianhao, who was standing by the door in a suit.
Dressed in this attire, Sun Tianhao’s aura was very different from usual. He looked majestic, heroic, and tall. He had the demeanor of a soldier.
Old Master Sun glared at him in dissatisfaction. “Did you climb over the wall from the backyard?”
As Chu Luo was around, Sun Tianhao suddenly rubbed the brim of his cap in embarrassment and nodded. “I forgot that I haven’t read the news to you today. I took a shortcut.”
At this point, his eyes widened as if he had just realized that Old Master Sun could speak. He said excitedly, “Grandpa, you can speak now.”
Old Master Sun was about to speak again when he realized that his throat seemed to be blocked by something. Suddenly, his words turned into a ‘Ahhh’.
Sun Tianhao was shocked. He quickly strode over and squatted by Old Master Sun’s bed. He grabbed his hand and asked anxiously, “Grandpa, what’s wrong?”
After asking, he quickly looked at Chu Luo. “Chu Luo, what’s wrong with my grandfather?”
Chu Luo said, “Grandpa Sun could only speak for five minutes.”
“You were the one who helped let Grandpa speak.”
“Yes.”
“Then can you…”
Chu Luo knew what Sun Tianhao was going to say and refused directly. “No. Old Master Sun can’t speak for the time being because he’s injured. He’ll recover after resting for a while. It’s not like he can’t speak forever. There are some shortcuts that can’t be taken.”
Old Master Sun nodded in agreement.
Sun Tianhao exhaled and nodded in relief.
Only then did he stand up and take off his cap. Seeing that Chu Luo was staring at his clothes, he subconsciously straightened his back.
Chu Luo asked, “Is this your military school uniform?”
“Yes.”
Chu Luo nodded. “Looks good.”
The corners of Sun Tianhao’s lips curled up, and he was about to reveal his teeth when he suddenly remembered that the person opposite him was the Bai Ling he liked. He had even confessed to her before. He suddenly stopped smiling and tried his best to look serious. “Of course.”
Chu Luo was amused by his change in expression. She smiled and said, “You must have sneaked back home. Are you sure you don’t want to go back to school?”
“I didn’t.” With his current level in school, how could he possibly sneak away?
Sun Tianhao didn’t say that. He only said, “I merely took a shortcut and didn’t have time to change.”
Chu Luo nodded and didn’t ask further. She turned to look at Old Master Sun. “Master Sun, I’ll go prescribe you a prescription now. I don’t think I have time to come over for the next period of time. After you finish eating for half a month, I’ll come over and give you another prescription.”
Disappointment flashed across Old Master Sun and Sun Tianhao’s eyes.
Chu Luo turned around and walked out of the door.
Sun Tianhao followed.
The others waited in the courtyard.
When the two of them walked into the living room, Sun Tianhao suddenly asked, “Chu Luo, I heard that you met a few people from other places last night. Did they do anything to you?”
Chu Luo tilted her head and looked at him. “How did you know?”
“Is that true?” Sun Tianhao frowned. “A classmate of mine told me. Coincidentally, his sister is from the Imperial University Student Union.”
“What do you think those people could do to me?”
When Sun Tianhao heard this, his frown deepened. “Even so, you can’t let your guard down… Doesn’t Li Yan have many bodyguards? Why didn’t you bring bodyguards with you when you went out?”
“Troublesome.”
“What if you meet someone you can’t deal with…”
“What are you trying to say?” Chu Luo stopped.
“I…” Sun Tianhao tightened his grip on his cap and continued frowning.” Li Yan and the Qin family have fallen out now. The Qin family will definitely think of ways to kidnap you and threaten Li Yan.
“Also… I heard from my grandfather that none of the Duanmu family members are good people. Li Yan is so close to the Duanmu family. Isn’t he afraid of being tricked by the Duanmu family?”
“Wrong. Li Yan and the Duanmu family aren’t close.”
“How is that possible? Everyone knows that.”
“Hmph! This is obviously a rumor deliberately released by the Duanmu family.”
At this point, Chu Luo strode out of the door.
Sun Tianhao quickly followed.
When the Sun family, who was standing in the courtyard, saw Sun Tianhao and Chu Luo come out, Third Madam retorted, “Tianhao, did you climb over the wall again? Kid, why do you often climb over walls instead of walking through doors? I’ll get someone to install a high-voltage electric net on the wall tomorrow. Let’s see if you can still climb over the wall.”
Sun Tianhao immediately fawned on Third Madam. “Mommy, isn’t that wall closer to my school?”
“Don’t give me that. It’s just a few steps. How much closer could it be?”
Sun Tianhao giggled and stopped talking.
Eldest Master Sun asked Chu Luo, “Little Chu, what do you need us to do now?”
“Give me a pen and a notebook. I’ll write a prescription for Master Sun.”
“Okay.”
Everyone walked towards the house in front.
In the hall, Chu Luo and Professor Tang discussed Old Master Sun’s situation.
Professor Tang said to Chu Luo, “I’ve already told the nurses what to take note of.”
Chu Luo nodded. After they brought over the pen and notebook, she took them and quickly wrote.
She wrote a few prescriptions at once before stopping and saying to them, “You can go to the Chinese pharmacy at the military hospital to retrieve these herbs. They should have all the herbs there.”
“Okay.” Eldest Master Sun took the prescription and said to her seriously, “Chu Luo, if you encounter any trouble in the future, you can look for us directly. As long as it’s your matter, we will definitely help.”
Chu Luo nodded and stood up with Professor Tang. “Then we’ll leave first.”
“Professor Tang, Little Chu, do stay for lunch.”
“Right, it’s almost noon.”
Chu Luo shook her head. “I have something on.”
Since Chu Luo had said so, the Sun family didn’t keep her anymore.
After being sent to the car by the Sun family and getting into the car with Professor Tang, Chu Luo said to Professor Tang, “Professor Tang, I’m going back to the Li residence first. Are you coming with me or are you going back to Imperial Sky Park first?”
Since the Li residence was between the Sun residence and Imperial Sky Park, Professor Tang said, “I’ll go with you. This will save time.”
“Okay.”
When the car arrived at the Li residence, Professor Tang was surprised. “I didn’t expect the Li residence to be so big.”
Chu Luo smiled. “This place is built according to the layout of the Prince’s residence. Of course it’s very big.”
The car drove straight into the Li residence and stopped outside the courtyard where Old Gao and his wife lived.
At this moment, Mrs. Gao was drying clothes in the courtyard. When she saw Chu Luo coming, she quickly shouted into the door, “Old Gao, Chu Luo is here.”
Soon, footsteps could be heard. Then, Old Gao strode out with a pen. As he walked, he said loudly,
“Little Chu Luo, you came at the right time. Hurry up and teach me how to translate other languages into a common language. It’s best if it’s the Imperial language.”
However, when Old Gao saw Professor Tang, his expression suddenly froze.
Chu Luo smiled and introduced him. “Teacher Gao, this is Professor Tang from the medical school.”
Then, she said, “Professor Tang, he’s my high school Mathematics teacher.”
Professor Tang extended his hand to Old Gao. “Hello, Mr. Gao.”
“Hello, hello, hello!” Old Gao immediately came back to his senses. He put his pen in his pocket and shook his hand enthusiastically. “I heard from Little Chu Luo that you’re a highly brilliant medical professor.”
“Mr. Gao, you’re also incredible to have a student like Chu Luo.”
“Haha, let’s go and sit in the living room.”
Teacher Gao quickly led the two of them into the living room.
