Chapter 106: What Are You Doing Here in the Middle of the Night?

Chu Luo looked at the departing figure and smiled mockingly.

Although she didn’t know where Chu Zhengyang was going, she was going to fill in her university application tomorrow, but Chu Zhengyang didn’t even mention signing it for her.

​ 

Chu Luo retracted her gaze and closed the curtains to sleep.

At two in the morning, Chu Luo was suddenly woken up by the faint sound in the living room.

After getting off the bed, she didn’t put on her shoes and walked over barefoot to open the door. At the same time, she took a pill.

“It’s me.”

Li Yan seemed to have guessed that she would use a pill. His body flashed and he spoke in a deep voice.

Chu Luo turned on the lights in the living room and asked him in dissatisfaction, “Why did you come to my living room in the middle of the night?”

Li Yan walked towards her and his gaze landed on her bare feet.

The air conditioner in the room was on, and the floor was cold. Chu Luo’s toes curled up subconsciously, looking especially pitiful and adorable.

“Go put on your shoes.”

Chu Luo wanted to say that she wasn’t cold, but after thinking for a while, she went back and put on a pair of slippers.

Li Yan was already sitting on the sofa and removing his coat.

Chu Luo walked over and watched him take off his top with sparkling eyes.

Li Yan was about to take off his singlet inside when he met Chu Luo’s gaze and said in a low voice, “Close your eyes.”

This little thing was casually staring at a grown man as he undressed. Didn’t she know how to be shy?

Chu Luo looked at him, thought for a while, and obediently closed her eyes.

She heard rustling sounds, and after a while, she heard Li Yan’s voice.

“Open your eyes.”

When Chu Luo opened her eyes, Li Yan had already changed his clothes. She asked, “What are you doing?”

After saying that, she sniffled and looked at the clothes he had placed beside him. “There’s a bloody smell on your clothes.”

“Mm,” Li Yan said. “On the way, I met a rather difficult opponent… Give me some recuperation medicine.”

“You’re injured?”

“Qin Ming, he’s injured and poisoned.”

“Poisoned? Then I have to see what poison he was poisoned with.”

“No need. Just give me the medicine.”

“Why? I need to know what he’s poisoned with to prescribe the right remedy. Otherwise, it might not work.”

Li Yan was silent, seemingly considering how to tell her.

Chu Luo blinked and looked at him curiously.

After a while, Li Yan stood up and bent down to whisper in her ear.

“Uh…”

When Chu Luo heard this, she looked at him awkwardly and said, “Is the person you met crazy? To actually poison him with something so vicious.”

Li Yan pursed his lips and looked at her.

Chu Luo grinned at him. “But I’ve seen this poison before. It can be cured. Wait a minute. I have some medicine that can suppress the poison. When we return to the capital, I’ll concoct an antidote for him.”

Li Yan nodded.

Chu Luo went to her bedroom to get her bag and took out three small bottles to hand to Li Yan. “The one in the brown bottle is to be applied on the wound, the one in the white bottle is to be consumed orally. The medicine in this yellow bottle can be used for prevention. If you meet this kind of person again, take a pill directly. You won’t have to worry about him poisoning you like this anymore.”

After saying that, she frowned and said, “It’s best to deal with this kind of person directly. How dare he use this kind of medicine to harm people? That’s preposterous.”

“It’s already been resolved.”

Li Yan took the three bottles from her hand and returned to the sofa to pick up his clothes before walking out.

“Li Yan.” Chu Luo suddenly thought of something and quickly asked, “Did you bring our household register?”

Li Yan stopped and turned to look at her. “For what?”

“We’ll start filling in our university application tomorrow.”

“Isn’t a parent’s signature enough?”

“Yes, but my household register has been transferred and the school doesn’t know. Will it help if you sign it?”

Li Yan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment before saying, “I’ll meet with your school’s heads tomorrow.”

“Oh?” That’s it? Chu Luo felt a little strange.

Li Yan didn’t say anything else and walked out, closing the door behind him as he left.

Chu Luo looked at the closed door for a while before turning around to go back to the bedroom to continue sleeping.

The next day, when Chu Luo got out of bed, washed up, and opened the bedroom door, Li Yan was already sitting in her living room. At this moment, he had a laptop on his lap and his hands were rapidly typing on the keyboard.

Chu Luo was already used to this person entering her living room as naturally as if this was his own home. She only glanced at him before walking towards the door.

She prepared to run for half an hour.

Li Yan glanced up when she closed the door and continued with his business.

Chu Luo used to go out for a run every day and ran along the road outside the district to a park not far away.

On the way, she bumped into Old Gao, who had also gone for a run.

The two of them jogged together.

When they arrived at the park, they bumped into several teachers from the same grade.

“Chu Luo, you came to run too.”

“I think I saw Chu Luo coming to the park to run before the exam. Indeed, those with good results know how to manage their time well.”

“Haha, Teacher Chen is right. I think we should let the next batch of students learn Chu Luo’s learning methods and lifestyle.”

Everyone was chatting and laughing as they ran. Suddenly, a teacher exclaimed, “I think I saw the form teacher of Grade 12, Class 1, Teacher Li running over there. I didn’t expect Teacher Li to be so fast.”

“It’s possible that Teacher Li was too ashamed to see Chu Luo. After all, she kept picking on Chu Luo at that time.”

…

Chu Luo and Old Gao looked at each other and didn’t say anything.

After running for half an hour, they headed back.

Chu Luo and Old Gao also strolled back.

Old Gao said, “Little Chu Luo, come to my house for breakfast this morning. Coincidentally, my missus made prawn wontons¹ this morning. They’re delicious.”

Chu Luo nodded happily. Suddenly, she thought of something and asked, “Teacher Gao, if a different guardian were to suddenly appear during the university application, would the school investigate?”

“Definitely. But the school’s investigations aren’t strict. When the time comes, we’ll report it to the Education Bureau, and then the Education Bureau will investigate strictly.” After Old Gao finished speaking, he asked in surprise, “Little Chu Luo, did you transfer your household register?”

At this point, he suddenly remembered what Chu Luo had said on the phone last time. “Look at my memory. You said last time that your parents were actually your uncle and auntie. It’s normal to transfer the household register, but… why didn’t you transfer it after you’ve filled in your university application?”

“Because of some reasons.”

Chu Luo didn’t say it explicitly, and Old Gao didn’t ask further. He said, “As long as your current guardian is capable, this kind of matter is very easy to handle. You don’t have to worry that it will delay your application.”

“I’m not worried.”

She just wanted to ask.

Chu Luo returned to her apartment after having breakfast at Old Gao’s residence.

Li Yan was no longer at her house, but the door next to hers was wide open.

Chu Luo was a little curious. She turned around and walked next door.

Li Yan was standing by the window in the living room with his back facing the door. There were also a few men in black suits standing behind him.

Everyone had an invisible murderous aura.

When Chu Luo stood by the door, the person who was talking stopped.

Li Yan turned to look at her and said, “I’ve already called the Education Bureau and your school’s heads. When the time comes, just bring the form back and I’ll sign it.”

Chu Luo nodded and glanced at the men in black suits standing there. She turned around and walked towards her apartment.

Chu Luo went to school at nine o’clock.

As soon as she reached the school gate, she saw the especially eye-catching banner hanging on the gate.

“Warm congratulations to our school’s college entrance examination candidate, Chu Luo, for getting first place in the country.”

The school gate of Ocean City’s elite high school was built magnificently. Once this banner was hung, any pedestrian or car that passed by would subconsciously slow down. Many people discussed the banner, and some people even took out their phones to take pictures.

Just as Chu Luo walked to the school gate, she suddenly heard a loud voice. “Chu Luo is here. Hurry up and set off the fireworks.”

Crackle…

Chu Luo: “…”

It wasn’t easy for Chu Luo to walk out of the smoke that reeked of gunpowder. She saw two rows of juniors standing by the school gate.

They welcomed her with flowers in their hands. As she walked past, they even chanted slogans loudly, “Goddess of Studying, Goddess of Studying, welcome back to fill in your university application.”

Chu Luo: “…”

It wasn’t easy for her to reach the Grade 12 building, but Chu Luo didn’t have any peace and quiet there either.

At this moment, all the Grade 12 graduates had returned. Everyone was standing below the Grade 12 building. Regardless of whether they knew her or not, they were all greeting her.

“Chu Luo, you’re here.”

“Chu Luo, which major are you planning to enroll in at Imperial University?”

“Chu Luo, you are my goddess.”

“Chu Luo, can we take a picture together?”

…

Chu Luo’s face tensed up and she said coldly, “Move aside.”

After saying that, she exuded a powerful aura that made everyone subconsciously take a step back.

Chu Luo continued to walk towards the school building. After she walked up the stairs, she turned to face everyone and warned:

“In the past, we weren’t close. Now, I don’t need anyone to worm their way into being friends with me. What you’ll become in the future will depend on your own abilities. I don’t want anyone to do something that will make me unhappy in the name of being my classmate.”

Chu Luo was famous for being fierce. Now that she had said that, everyone came back to their senses. They had been shocked by Chu Luo’s results and had only wanted to worm their way into being friends with her. Hearing her say that, they all shut up.

Chu Luo turned around and entered the school building.

Someone finally couldn’t help but whisper sourly, “So what if you got first place in the country?”

“If you’re capable, you can get first place in the country too. If not, shut up.”

Li Tao and He Jiang, who happened to be a step behind Chu Luo, had heard those words, and Li Tao had retorted.

The others looked at the person who spoke sarcastically and subconsciously took a step back.

That person’s face instantly turned red and purple. It was an extremely fascinating sight to behold.
