When Chu Luo and the others returned to the Li residence, Li Yan wasn’t back yet.
Old Gao was concerned about Chu Luo’s exams tomorrow, so he urged her, “Little Chu, we’ll leave after you finish your exams tomorrow. Hurry up and revise.”
Chu Luo looked at Old Gao, who was even more nervous than her, and said with a smile, “Teacher Gao, don’t worry. It’s just a small test tomorrow.”
Old Gao scolded jokingly, “Even if it’s a small test, you can’t be sloppy. Also, you have to calculate the time well for your five foreign languages exams tomorrow. Don’t run out of time.”
Chu Luo knew that everyone was most concerned about whether she could handle many subjects in one day. Without explaining, she said, “Got it. I’ll plan the time tonight.”
When she returned to her villa, the butler behind her reported to her about Chu Yichen. “Mr. Chu looks better today. He can already walk in the living room for a while.”
Chu Luo nodded and thought, ‘Looks like that dagger has improved his physical functions. He will definitely be in much better health than ordinary people in the future. That’s not bad.’
The butler then told her about their wedding preparations.
The wedding was scheduled for January 1st.
“Master plans to release the news of your marriage in a few days.”
Chu Luo had no objections, but she remembered that Li Yan said that he would see Old Master Duanmu today, so she took out her phone and sent him a message.
Chu Luo: “Yan, have you come out of the Duanmu residence?”
Li Yan: “Mm, at the office.”
Relieved, Chu Luo asked, “When are you coming back?”
Li Yan: “Before ten.”
At this point, Chu Luo smiled and put away her phone. She asked the butler, “Has Anya left?”
“No. Princess Anya has been in Qin Ming’s villa all day.”
Chu Luo didn’t need to think to know what that woman was up to.
She was planning to cling to Qin Ming.
She asked, “How’s her leg?”
“Princess Anya said that her legs can’t land on the ground for the next ten days to half a month.”
“…” Chu Luo was silent for two seconds before asking, “What’s Qin Ming’s reaction?”
“Qin Ming went out early in the morning. He might not be able to return tonight.”
“Pfft…”
Chu Luo could imagine how depressed Anya would be if no one came after waiting for a long time.
Chu Luo didn’t ask further. She took a tablet and sat on the sofa to look at the experimental instruments needed to do microbiology experiments. At the same time, she watched the experiment process of finding pathogens in animals.
She studied until past eight in the evening.
Only then did she remember to ask Tang Zhiyun about their situation.
Only then did she know that Xiao Yue had been coaxed by Young Master Qian to book a room.
This Xiao Yue actually couldn’t withstand the temptation of money so easily. Chu Luo could only say, “Luckily, Senior Tang doesn’t have feelings for her.”
She originally wanted to ask about the aftermath, but after thinking about it, she decided against it. In any case, she didn’t care what would happen to this person.
Then, she continued watching the experimental video.
When it was almost ten o’clock, Chu Luo heard the faint sound of a car driving over. She put down her tablet and walked into the courtyard.
Just as she opened the door, the car drove over and stopped in front of her.
Chu Luo looked at Li Yan, who had alighted, and smiled. “Yan, you’re back.”
The moment Li Yan saw her, his heart warmed.
He strode up to her and wrapped his arm around her waist. As they walked into the courtyard, he said, “It’s cold outside. Don’t wait for me outside again.”
Chu Luo tilted her head and looked at him. She wrinkled her nose at him. “Yes.”
Li Yan’s heart melted at her mischievous look and he deliberately pinched her nose.
The two of them quickly arrived in the living room. Li Yan told her about her visit to Old Master Duanmu’s place today.
Old Master indeed wanted him to help the Duanmu family.
“Old Master wants me to cooperate with the Duanmu family and promised me some benefits.”
Chu Luo didn’t ask what benefits he offered. Instead, she asked, “The person with Qin Xiang today doesn’t seem to have a simple identity in Country S. Is he a partner the Qin family found?”
“Yes, this person is from the Paine family in Country S. There are two branches of the Paine family. One is the hereditary Earl, and the other is a businessman who provides money for the Earl’s family. The businessmen are divided into those who do business in the open and those who do business in the dark. This Chadeley is in charge of the dark business.”
On the surface, the business of a family in the open couldn’t compare to the business in the dark. The Qin family had made a huge gamble by finding Chadeley.
After Li Yan finished speaking, he exuded a cold aura.
“I originally planned to play with them slowly, but since this person provoked you, there’s no need to keep him.”
Chu Luo grabbed his hand and said, “It’s boring to deal with such a person at once. Since he wants to cooperate with the Qin family, why don’t you let them cooperate first? When the time comes, you can eliminate their hidden strength.”
Chu Luo believed that Li Yan had the ability.
Li Yan grabbed her hand and pinched it in dissatisfaction. “Don’t worry about this matter. You just have to focus on being a bride.”
At the mention of the wedding, Li Yan retracted his cold aura.
However, Chu Luo blushed a little. She nudged him with her elbow and said, “The Internet says that the bride-to-be is usually very nervous. I’m not nervous at all.”
Li Yan chuckled. “Then you can look forward to it.”
After saying that, he held her hand and walked upstairs. As they walked, he said, “We can take our wedding photos in two days. Where do you want to take it?”
Chu Luo and Li Yan were probably a little busy next. She said, “Let’s just take the photos at the Li residence. There are all kinds of scenery here anyway.”
Li Yan listened to her and asked something else, “Where do you want to go for your honeymoon?”
Compared to going out for a honeymoon, Chu Luo preferred to stay at home and not go anywhere. She told him about her thoughts.
Li Yan had long guessed that she would say that and said, “I’ll take you to a place that will satisfy you for your honeymoon.”
“Where?”
“It’s a secret.”
The more Li Yan said this, the more curious Chu Luo became. She hugged his arm and wheedled, “Yan, tell me.”
Li Yan shut his mouth and refused to answer Chu Luo’s questions.
In a fit of anger, Chu Luo didn’t allow him to hug her when she slept.
Li Yan coaxed and promised many things. When she was satisfied, the two of them hugged and fell asleep.
The next day, Chu Luo woke up early.
The exam started at eight o’clock. After Chu Luo and Li Yan finished breakfast, Li Yan sent her to school. Before Chu Luo alighted, Li Yan wrapped his arm around her waist and said, “Baby, I’ll pick you up to celebrate after the exam.”
Chu Luo nodded. “I’ll try to end it early and go back to eat hotpot with Teacher Gao and the others.”
“Okay.”
After Chu Luo alighted, she went to the School of Foreign Languages.
The others were to take their exam at nine o’clock, but since the school had announced Chu Luo’s examination time yesterday afternoon, the School of Foreign Languages was already surrounded by people.
Even the group of foreign Student Union students were waiting there.
The moment she appeared, most people said something to cheer her on.
At this moment, someone from a foreign university’s Student Union deliberately said loudly, “Chu Luo, so many of us are accompanying you for the exam today. We’re all waiting for you to pass the exam successfully. When the time comes, let’s go celebrate.”
Another person added, “Since you’re taking the exam for five subjects at once, you must grasp the timing well. Don’t confuse the five subjects.”
Then, someone added, “You should have seen the International Education Network. Your exam will be broadcast live today. Even if there are many flamers criticizing you, don’t be nervous.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she finally stopped. She looked at Yu Tong and asked, “Will my exam be broadcast live?”
Yu Tong was surprised. “Chu Luo, didn’t the school inform you? Or did you not go online?”
Chu Luo looked calm. “No.”
Everyone: “…”
On the other hand, they had felt angry and nervous on her behalf for the entire night. Today, the president had gathered everyone from the Student Union to control the negative rumors from surging into the Imperial University official website. However, Chu Luo herself didn’t know anything about it.
Just as everyone was silent, Wang Mingtao ran over from the school path. He was carrying two bags. One was filled with cake and the other was filled with a thermos.
The moment he saw Chu Luo, he grinned and said, “Sister Chu, this is the cake and milk tea my mother prepared for you before dawn. Take them to the examination hall later. You can eat and drink during your break.”
Chu Luo took the bag and nodded at him. She turned around and walked into the examination hall.
After Chu Luo left, everyone started discussing.
“Do you think Chu Luo can finish the exams for five foreign languages in a day?”
“Chu Luo is so incredible. She definitely can.”
“Some flamers on the Internet are too detestable. They actually said that Chu Luo is crazy about wanting to get famous. Some even said that our Imperial University is crazy about wanting to get famous.”
“Hmph! These people are jealous of Chu Luo. Whether she has the ability or not, did she not show it at the international school’s principal meeting previously?”
Li Tao, He Jiang, and Yu Tong walked up to Wang Mingtao and the four of them looked at each other.
He Jiang said, “Luckily, Chu Luo didn’t go online last night. Otherwise, she would be angered to death by those flamers’ comments.”
“How could that be?” Wang Mingtao knew Chu Luo very well. “If Sister Chu finds out, she’ll at most expose those flamers. After the exam, she’ll slap their faces one by one.”
Li Tao and Yu Tong actually felt that Wang Mingtao made sense.
At this moment, the Student Union exchange students standing together were also discussing softly.
“Imperial University has caused such a huge commotion this time. Aren’t they afraid that it won’t end well?”
“To be honest, I don’t really believe that Chu Luo can finish the exams for five foreign languages in a day.”
“Chu Luo is so arrogant. It’s not a bad idea to dampen her confidence. Otherwise, she might really think that she’s omnipotent.”
