That entertainment media company from Korea couldn’t withstand the pressure of public opinion and quickly came out to apologize to Imperial University and to Chu Luo.
Instantly, Chu Luo became famous again.
The people of the empire felt that Chu Luo’s words against those reporters were too gratifying. Her popularity in the empire soared.
As soon as Chu Luo walked out of the dean’s office, she received a call from Old Gao.
Old Gao scolded in a proud tone over the phone, “Little Chu Luo, your mouth is still so unforgiving, but good job on scolding them. You shouldn’t be polite to those with low standards.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she subconsciously smiled.
She started chatting casually with Old Gao.
This was the first time Nangong Yi, who was walking behind her, had seen Chu Luo talking to someone so happily. After she hung up, he couldn’t help but ask, “Chu Luo, were you on the phone with your family?”
Chu Luo’s family situation wasn’t a secret. Nangong Yi’s question was actually a little abrupt.
Chu Luo didn’t mind and said directly, “The person who called was my high school form teacher.”
Just as she finished speaking, her phone rang again.
It was Wu Yiyao.
Chu Luo was able to push that thread and video to the top of the international website so quickly because of other people’s help.
Chu Luo picked up the call and asked, “Sister Wu, you helped me just now, right?”
Wu Yiyao’s voice, which was gentle with a smile, sounded warm to the ears. “Mm, not only me, but also Little Tang. Coincidentally, I was with Little Tang. He only found out what you were up to after checking the students’ videos.”
Chu Luo responded with an “Mm.”
Wu Yiyao asked, “Little Chu, do you need help? Coincidentally, I’m free for the next two days. If you need help, I’ll come over tomorrow.”
At this point, she added, “Little Tang said that he’s coming over to help too.”
Chu Luo thought for a while and said, “Coincidentally, I need a few people with good computer skills. You two can come over tomorrow morning.”
She needed helpers in the control room, but since Wu Yiyao offered, she asked her and Tang Zhiyun to come. Having the two of them beat having many people.
Wu Yiyao and Tang Zhiyun definitely had no objections.
The two of them spoke for a while more before hanging up.
Seeing that Chu Luo had put away her phone, Nangong Yi said, “Junior, since there are foreign reporters coming tomorrow, there would surely be a lot of reporters from the empire. The third hall can accommodate only 500 people. It’s difficult to make arrangements if there are too many people. How do you plan to handle this matter?”
“Why should we let all the reporters in?” Chu Luo didn’t think it was a problem at all. “We’ll let only the previously confirmed reporters in. The others will be outside.”
“…” Nangong Yi was silent for a few seconds before asking, “Junior, have you thought of the consequences of doing this?”
“I have.”
The two of them had already reached the first floor when Chu Luo’s phone rang again. It was a message. She took it out and saw that it was from Li Yan. He said that he would come to the school immediately.
The corners of Chu Luo’s lips couldn’t help but curl up. After telling Li Yan where she was waiting for him, she continued to speak to Nangong Yi. “Only those who aren’t confident will be worried about the consequences. Since this is a competition organized by me, you have to listen to me.”

Nangong Yi opened his mouth but ultimately gave up on talking about this matter. Instead, he asked, “What does Junior intend to do next?”
“My boyfriend is coming over later. Don’t follow me. Go do whatever you want.”

“…”
Nangong Yi suddenly had a feeling that Chu Luo was hating on him for being a third wheel and was sending him away. What was going on?
Nangong Yi looked deeply at Chu Luo and decided to shut his mouth.
When the two of them arrived outside the office building, Chu Luo asked Roundy to place the skateboard on the ground. After standing on it, she said to Nangong Yi, “I’ll leave first.”
With that, she left.
Nangong Yi laughed as he looked at Chu Luo, who left just like that. He took out his phone and dialed a number.
After the call went through, he said, “If you’re still going to stand at the side and watch the show, don’t blame me for not warning you when you’re in trouble.”

With that, he hung up.
Chu Luo went straight to the third hall.
As she skated, she sent Li Yan a message: “Yan, buy me some pastries and ice cream when you come over.”
Li Yan: “Okay.”
Chu Luo waited expectantly for Li Yan to buy her ice cream. As she went, she sent Wu Yiyao a message.
Chu Luo: “Sister Wu, if you’re not going back to the old district tonight, come to the third hall with Senior Tang after dinner.”
Wu Yiyao: “Okay.”
Chu Luo went along Imperial University’s school path with Roundy on her skateboard.
When the students from the other schools saw her passing through, they were shocked.
“That’s Chu Luo, right?”
“Right.”
“Chu Luo is actually moving around on a skateboard. She looks so dashing!”
“Hehe, that’s true. Our school’s Chu Luo is that dashing.”
When Chu Luo arrived at the school path in the third hall, she asked Roundy to put away the skateboard.
There were many magnolia trees planted on both sides of the school road. Although the magnolia season had long passed, these trees were evergreen throughout the four seasons. As one walked in the middle, they still gave one a tranquil and beautiful feeling.
Everyone’s efforts today weren’t in vain. Welcome posters and flags were hung on every magnolia tree. There were also many blooming flowers under the trees.
Chu Luo was a little surprised, so she called Mr. Wang.
When Mr. Wang picked up the call, Chu Luo asked, “Uncle Wang, why did you send so many flowers over?”
Mr. Wang smiled and said, “Since you’re the one who organized this competition, you must arrange everything properly. This amount of money is nothing compared to the money Little Chu let us win last time.”
Chu Luo smiled and said, “I’ll report this to the school and get them to write Uncle Wang’s donation on the donation record.”
Mr. Wang laughed and agreed. “Okay, okay, okay.”
The two of them spoke for a while before hanging up.
Chu Luo quickly brought Roundy to the door of the third hall.
All the places had been set up. It was dinner time again, but there was no one here.
Chu Luo didn’t enter. Instead, she let Roundy connect to the control room in the third hall.
About half an hour later, she heard familiar footsteps behind her.
Chu Luo turned around and looked at the approaching man. She asked expectantly, “Yan, did you buy me ice cream?”
Li Yan glanced at Roundy’s display and nodded at her.
Chu Luo was so happy that her eyes curved into crescents.
She pulled Li Yan’s hand and walked towards the hall. “Let’s eat in the hall.”
The two of them walked in and sat down in the last row.
Li Yan placed a few bags on an empty chair and handed her a small bag.
Chu Luo took it happily. When she opened the bag and saw what was inside, her face puffed up in dissatisfaction.
“It’s not ice cream at all!”
“Yes.”
“No.”
Chu Luo looked at the serious Li Yan and angrily raised the cake that resembled an ice cream in front of him. “Of course it’s not!”
Li Yan pointed at the cake. “Doesn’t it look like ice cream?”
“…”
Li Yan suddenly carried her and sat her on his lap.
Chu Luo was a little embarrassed and wanted to get off.
Li Yan pinched her waist and said in a low voice, “Roundy is guarding outside. No one will come in.”
After saying that, he kissed her lips a few times before saying in a slightly hoarse voice, “Your period is coming soon. You can’t eat cold food.”
When Chu Luo heard this, her face turned red.
She pushed his cheek to the side, took the cake from his hand, and slowly ate it.
Li Yan gave her a cup of warm milk tea.
Chu Luo didn’t take it and bit the straw on his hand.
After drinking, she asked, “Did you bring dinner?”
“Someone will send it over later.”
Chu Luo nodded and fed him the cake.
This time, Li Yan didn’t close his mouth and only bit down a little.
Chu Luo couldn’t help but chuckle when she saw him like this.
After the cake was finished, she asked, “Why did you transfer so much money to my card?”
“The Qin family froze all of Blazing Glory’s funds in the empire. I got someone to secretly transfer the money out.”
“Won’t they notice?”
“No. My men aren’t pushovers.”
Chu Luo smiled and deliberately said, “Aren’t you worried that someone will investigate after the money was transferred to me?”
“Wifey even dares to chase an international hacker to his lair. Are you worried that someone will find out?”
Chu Luo accepted Li Yan’s compliment and reached for a small cake to eat.
As she ate, she said, “I’ve set up a hidden function on my card. I’ll transfer the money after this matter is over.”
“No need. Just take it as pocket money.”

“I don’t want that. There are so many zeros. I feel dizzy just looking at them.”
Li Yan laughed at her words and pulled her into his arms. He looked down at her lips and said, “You can buy whatever you want.”
Chu Luo’s eyes darted around and she said, “I want to buy an island and build an herb garden.” This way, she could use her abilities to grow the best herbs.
“Okay.”
Li Yan lowered his head and kissed her lips.
Chu Luo raised her head back and was immediately pressed down by a large hand.
Li Yan only let go of her after her lips had turned red.
Chu Luo panted as she leaned on his shoulder and patted it in dissatisfaction.
“Big baddie!”
“I just couldn’t help it.”
Chu Luo pursed her lips and smiled. Then, she told him about what happened in the afternoon.
Li Yan listened quietly. When he heard what the reporters said, a murderous glint flashed across his eyes.
The two of them waited for almost 20 minutes before dinner was sent over.
