Chapter 224: Sun Tianhao Likes Bai Ling
After that person finished speaking, another nonchalant voice sounded. “Maybe they came back late like us and took a shortcut. Step on my shoulder first. The dormitory building will close later. When the time comes, we will be nagged at by the dormitory manager again.”
“Is this my fault? I told you not to play games for too long, but you refused to listen. If I hadn’t forced you, you would’ve stayed up all night again.”
“I want to level up. My account is about to level up to level 90. When I level up to the maximum, I must PK with Senior Brother Tang and the others.”
“Ambitious, but do you think you can beat them in a PK?”
“Stop scorning me. Maybe I’ll win the PK.”
“Pfft… There have been so many people looking for them to PK in the past few days. Look who won.”
“You’re so boring. Can’t you say something nice?”
“No!”
Chu Luo and Li Yan looked at each other and held hands as they walked forward.
In the middle of the night, Li Yan’s phone on the bedside table suddenly rang.
He suddenly opened his eyes and wanted to get his phone.
Chu Luo opened her eyes at the same time and looked up. “What’s wrong?”
Li Yan took his phone and told her, “The Qin family sent someone over.”
With that, he let go of her body. “Go to sleep first. I’ll deal with them.”
“I’ll go with you.”
“No need. I won’t go out. I’ll think of a way to get the Duanmu family to deal with these people.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she curled her lips. “Then come back quickly.”
“Mm.”
Li Yan kissed her forehead and left after putting on his clothes.
Li Yan went straight to the study. He quickly took out his computer and hacked into the Duanmu family’s safety net to send an anonymous message to a certain someone.
At the Duanmu residence.
Duanmu Tian, who was sleeping, was suddenly woken up by a phone call. He rubbed his face angrily and picked up the phone. Without looking at it, he scolded, “Which bastard…”
“Duanmu Tian, say that again.”
The moment the other party’s stern voice sounded, Duanmu Tian immediately cowered. “Big Brother, I was wrong. I thought that it was my friends who called at this time.”
“Hmph!”
Duanmu Rui snorted. Duanmu Tian was so frightened that his heart trembled. He quickly asked fawningly, “Big Brother, why are you calling me in the middle of the night?”
Duanmu Rui: “Someone hacked into my computer just now and left me a message.”
“Tsk… Who dares to hack into your computer? Big Brother, you must have caught that person, right?”
“Not yet.” Duanmu Rui’s tone carried a trace of anger.
Duanmu Tian was afraid that his anger would affect him, so he quickly asked, “What was that message?”
“The Qin family went to Imperial University to catch Li Yan’s subordinate.”
“What?” Duanmu Tian suddenly sat up in bed and suddenly became a little more awake. “Is this a trap? There are so many of Li Yan’s men at Imperial University. That person must be hiding. How do they know where he is?”
Duanmu Rui: “It doesn’t matter if it’s a trap or not. Send someone to take a look immediately. That person can’t be taken away by the Qin family.”
Duanmu Tian was puzzled. “Big Brother, do you really want to capture that person and send him to Li Yan? We can’t control that Li Yan at all. Why don’t we take the opportunity to capture that shadow of his? When the time comes, we can interrogate him about some unknown matters and directly deal with him.”
Duanmu Rui’s voice deepened. “Do you think we can touch Li Yan as we please?”
Duanmu Tian said, “Why not? He’s just a businessman. There are many ways to deal with him.”
Duanmu Rui: “There are indeed many ways to deal with him, but after we deal with him, do you think we can get his company?”
Duanmu Tian thought for a moment and stopped talking.
Duanmu Rui said, “You have to set your sights further when doing things. Grandfather is Li Yan’s benefactor. As long as Grandfather is alive, Li Yan will owe a debt of gratitude to Grandfather. When the time comes, let him support our Duanmu family. It won’t be worse than getting Blazing Glory from his hands.”
Duanmu Tian was enlightened. “Brother, you’re right. I’ll personally bring people to capture that person.”
“There’s no need to catch him for now,” Duanmu Tian said. “This message is a little strange. You have to confirm if the Qin family will go over tonight. Moreover, it’s impossible for Li Yan’s shadow to be easily caught. Also… don’t alert Li Yan’s bodyguards again. Li Yan was already a little suspicious last time.”
Duanmu Tian quickly replied, “Got it.”
With that, he hung up the phone, put on his clothes, and strode out of the bedroom.
…
3:00 AM.
The Imperial University campus was quiet. A group of people quickly climbed over a remote wall and ran towards the PhD students’ residential area.
However, not long after they left, they bumped into someone walking quickly from another path.
When the two sides met, the first reaction of the people from the Duanmu family was that they were from the Qin family. Just as they raised their guard, one of the other party said, “Fight.”
Those people attacked.
Half an hour later, someone triggered the school’s alarm and an ear-piercing alarm sounded.
The other party left without a word.
Seeing that the situation wasn’t looking good, the people from the Duanmu family also quickly retreated.
…
At the same time, in a remote corner of Imperial University, the group sent by the Qin family happened to meet a group of people. Without a word, the other party started fighting again.
Half an hour later, the alarm was triggered and the group of people immediately retreated.
The group of Qin family members who had been beaten until their backs were bent thought that they were definitely from the Duanmu family and went back to complain.
…
Li Yan waited for the two sides on the video to retreat before closing his computer and walking out of the study.
When he returned to the bedroom, Chu Luo was already asleep.
He took off his shoes and got into bed, then hugged her to sleep.
The next day, when Chu Luo woke up, she asked him about last night.
Li Yan briefly told her what happened.
Chu Luo curled her lips. “If you do that, will the Qin family and the Duanmu family fight directly?”
“It’s better if they fight. No one will disturb us then.”
Chu Luo pursed her lips and smiled.
The two of them washed up and went downstairs.
In the day, Chu Luo went to the technology building while Li Yan went out.
At night, when Chu Luo went to the hospital, Professor Tang told her, “Old Master Sun woke up not long after you left last night. However, he didn’t wake up for long. He’s been asleep for the entire day.”
Chu Luo nodded. “It’s good to let Grandpa Sun sleep more.”
Professor Tang said the same thing and the two of them walked out.
It was impossible for Old Master Sun’s sons to guard the hospital every day. They had many things to do. Ever since Old Master Sun woke up, his daughters-in-law took turns to guard him during the day. At night, the sons took turns to guard him.
Today, it was Sun Hongqing, the eldest son of the Sun family, who came to guard during the night. When he saw the two of them come out, he called them over to sit down. The three of them talked about the old master’s recovery.
Sun Tianhao was also there. He looked at Chu Luo and hesitated.
When the three of them were almost done talking, he suddenly said to Chu Luo, “Chu Luo, let’s go out and talk.”
Sun Hongqing looked at the two youngsters and a trace of warmth appeared on his serious face. He had always thought that Sun Tianhao wanted to apologize and thank Chu Luo, but he couldn’t bring himself to do so. Thus, he decided to help him. “Little Chu, talk to Tianhao. Coincidentally, I have a private matter to ask Professor Tang.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she stood up and walked out of the door with Sun Tianhao.
The two of them walked to the wall before stopping.
Chu Luo asked, “What is it?”
Sun Tianhao stared at her and said, “I apologize on behalf of Yang Lu for what she said to you yesterday.”
Chu Luo looked at him in surprise.
Sun Tianhao was actually a little embarrassed from staring at her. He turned his head away and continued, “I don’t like Yang Lu. I told Yang Lu about this many times. I thought that she had given up. I didn’t expect her to confront you yesterday.”
Chu Luo nodded and said in the tone of a teacher teaching a student, “Since you don’t like her, don’t give her any hope.”
Sun Tianhao was stunned by her tone. In the next second, he suddenly grinned and gritted his teeth. “I know, Little Teacher Chu.”
Chu Luo: “…”
She was so serious, but this person actually thought that she was joking with him!
Ridiculous!
She said lightly, “When we’re free one day, let’s compete. Let me see how good your skills are.”
Sun Tianhao was stunned. After a few seconds, he said, “I don’t bully girls.”
“Ha!”
“…”
Sun Tianhao felt that the girl in front of him was so not adorable!
However, there was something he still wanted to say. He said, “In the future, if Yang Lu comes to you again and talks nonsense, just tell her that I have someone I like.”
Chu Luo looked at him with bright eyes. “Why don’t you say it yourself?”
“She doesn’t believe me.” Sun Tianhao was also vexed. “I told her yesterday, but she didn’t believe me.”
“Then bring that girl to her and let her see.”
Sun Tianhao suddenly pursed his lips and stopped talking.
Chu Luo looked at him strangely.
After a while, Sun Tianhao said with a vexed expression, “I don’t know where the person I like is.”
“…”
“I don’t know what she looks like either.”
“…”
Chu Luo looked at him as if he was a monster. “Could it be that your sweetheart is an alien?”
Sun Tianhao was stunned for a moment and immediately retorted, “No! She’s a gamer. I’ve only seen her during the World Championship, but she was wearing a mask.”
“Mm?” Chu Luo suddenly had a bad premonition.
A glint of admiration flashed across Sun Tianhao’s eyes as he said proudly, “Her name is [Bai Ling]. She’s the first female player to participate in the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ World Championship. She’s also the first female player to win the competition. She’s also a female player who even challenged the top ten experts and won.”
Chu Luo: “…”
