The bunch of them arrived at Old Master Qin’s study. Seeing Old Master Qin sitting behind the desk with his back facing them, they quickly greeted respectfully, “Father.”
“What did you people do tonight?” Old Master Qin’s voice was already deep to begin with. Under the influence of anger, it beca even lower. Coupled with his superior aura, it shook the middle-aged n until they didn’t even dare to breathe.
“Father, we didn’t plan well tonight.”
At this mont, Old Master Qin turned around and looked at them with his sharp eagle-like eyes. There was disappointnt in them. “Hmph… What a bunch of incompetent fools.”
The bunch of them didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.
After a while, Second Master Qin suddenly thought of sothing and quickly said, “Father, Li Yan’s legs are healed.”
Old Master Qin’s face darkened. “Looks like we underestimated this kid.”
Second Master Qin probed, “Then… what should we do now?”
Third Master Qin added, “Father, given Li Yan’s attitude tonight, it’s obvious that he doesn’t want to cooperate with us.”
Fourth Master Qin also spoke. “The Duanmu family was still causing trouble tonight as well.”
After the second, third, and fourth masters of the Qin family finished speaking, the eldest son of the Qin family said, “Father, why don’t we go straight to the tomb? We already know its rough location.”
“Where?”
“The northwest, where the Ancient Capital of Loulan disappeared.”
“Then send soone to look for it. As for that brat Li Yan… I’ll send soone else to deal with him. You don’t have to interfere.”
“Yes.”
…
When Li Yan and Chu Luo walked out of the Qin residence, Third Master Duanmu and Lan Lan followed.
Third Master Duanmu stopped Li Yan with undisguised joy and said kindly:
“Li Yan, you probably won’t let this matter rest tonight. I don’t think the Qin family will let this matter rest either. Why don’t you cooperate with our Duanmu family?”
Li Yan only glanced at him coldly. After Chu Luo got into the car, he got in and the car drove away.
Watching the car drive away, Lan Lan turned to look at Third Master Duanmu with a complicated gaze. “Uncle, do you think Li Yan’s legs have recovered long ago and he deliberately kept it from everyone?”
Third Master Duanmu looked at the street corner and smiled cunningly. “It doesn’t matter if he recovered a long ti ago. After what happened tonight, everyone knows that he has sothing against the Qin family. When the ti cos, let’s see who else he can rely on besides us.”
Lan Lan nodded. “Indeed. Tonight’s matter will definitely spread quickly. When the ti cos, will the Qin family strike first to gain the upper hand?”
“Since Li Yan can only rely on our Duanmu family, do you think we will allow the Qin family to do anything to him?”
Third Master Duanmu was in a hurry to go back and tell the others in the Duanmu family about this. He turned around and walked towards the car.
When Lan Lan thought about how tall and powerful Li Yan looked when he stood up, her heart palpitated and her face subconsciously burned.
She quickly followed him into the car.
…
Indeed, before the next day arrived, the entire upper-class circle in the capital had already found out that Li Yan could stand up.
So were shocked, so were surprised, so were waiting to watch a good show.
So people even discussed it in private.
“Li Yan can actually stand up on his legs? That’s impossible. Did he find a miracle doctor?”
“Definitely. Didn’t he keep looking for a way to treat those legs a few years ago? Maybe he really found it.”
“Of all the timing, Master Li stood up at the Qin family banquet. What does this an? Does it an that he and the Qin family have really fallen out?”
“I don’t think so. No matter how rich Master Li is, he’s just a businessman. How can he possibly beat the Qin family? Unless…”
“Unless he’s really on the Duanmu family’s side.”
…
The first thing Chu Luo did when she woke up the next day was to go online to see if anything that happened at the Qin residence last night had been reported.
As expected, nothing about last night was reported.
Chu Luo went downstairs to see Li Yan using the computer in the living room. She walked over and asked, “Yan, you suddenly stood up yesterday. Does everyone think that you’ve already chosen the Duanmu family?”
Li Yan only responded with an “Mm.”
Chu Luo sat beside him and glanced at his laptop. She asked in surprise, “What are you doing?”
“Releasing the bait and letting the Qin family and the Duanmu family slowly fight.”
Chu Luo smiled. “The Qin family must want to kill you this ti. You’re such a big bait. They will definitely fight for you.”
“Mm.”
“But everyone knows that you’re close to the Duanmu family now. Is this good for you?”
“Who said I’m close to the Duanmu family?” Li Yan’s face was cold. “I’m not close to anyone. To , there are only benefits.”
At this mont, Qin Ming strode in.
“Master, the news has been released.”
Chu Luo asked in confusion, “What news?”
Li Yan: “The news of who cured my legs.”
Chu Luo continued to look at him curiously.
Li Yan tilted his head to look at her before saying, “I’ve gotten soone to handle the prescription you gave previously. I’ll let everyone know that I obtained a divine prescription before.”
“Mm?”
“Since those herbs aren’t easy to find, I’ll get soone else to help us find them.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she was first stunned before asking, “Those herbs are difficult to find and very rare. If they really find them, what if you can’t get them?”
“When the ti cos, soone from the Duanmu family will naturally think of a way.”
“Hehe, that’s a good idea.”
Li Yan nodded and said to Qin Ming, “You’ll handle this matter personally?”
“Yes.”
After Qin Ming responded, he left.
Li Yan then removed the laptop in front of him and said to Chu Luo, “I’ll send so people to protect you then. I’ll also appear in a high-profile manner. If our relationship is leaked, I’ll announce it to the world.”
Chu Luo blinked and opened her mouth, but she didn’t know what to say.
When he saw her reaction, the corners of Li Yan’s lips suddenly curled up. He lowered his head and kissed her cheek. “If you’re unwilling, I can think of a way to suppress this matter first, but I can’t guarantee that I can suppress it.”
Chu Luo had a nagging feeling that the man in front of her had deliberately brought her there last night and had planned it all out.
At the thought of this, she glared at him in dissatisfaction. “Big baddie!”
Li Yan let out a low laugh of delight.
After laughing, he pulled her into his arms and whispered into her ear, “I urgently want everyone to know that you’re my wife. This way, no one will dare to have any designs on you again.”
Especially those youngsters in their school. Soone actually dared to confess to his wife at the freshman assembly. It was already good enough that he didn’t get soone to teach that person a lesson.
Chu Luo blushed and knocked her forehead against his chin.
“As long as I’m not willing, no one can have designs on .”
When Li Yan heard this, his mood brightened.
After breakfast, Chu Luo went to school.
It was obvious how capable Li Yan was from the fact that Chu Luo and her friends weren’t disturbed in the next few days.
Sure enough, Li Yan appeared on the Internet in a high-profile manner.
His cold image and handso appearance made many people, especially the won, afraid of and obsessed with him.
For the next two days, Chu Luo stayed in the laboratory.
The four of them discussed their research in the morning. Chu Luo learned a lot of modern dical knowledge from the three of them and even suggested her own ideas.
The experint was going well.
The National Day holiday ended quickly.
When Chu Luo appeared on Imperial University’s campus, everyone looked at her with admiration.
“Have you heard? During National Day, Chu Luo participated in the International Cybersecurity Competition with a few experts from the Computer Science Departnt. Her self-created Taiji Eight Trigrams Defense Network trapped all the top hackers.”
“Really? Chu Luo is actually so brilliant?”
“How can that be fake? The news has spread throughout the Computer Science Departnt.”
“Not only that. I heard that Chu Luo even tracked down the lair of so top hackers.”
“Chu Luo is too aweso. Not only does she play the zither so well, but she’s also so aweso in computer science. If she’s not a goddess, who is?”
“This year’s school belle contest has begun. I’m prepared to vote for Chu Luo.”
“ too.”
…
“I’m so envious when I think of Chu Luo being able to perform on the sa stage as the president at the gala.”
At the ntion of the president and Chu Luo performing on the sa stage, many girls were envious and jealous.
“Why was Chu Luo so lucky as to have been on the sa stage as the president?”
“The president’s fan dance was too cool.”
“It’s a pity that Chu Luo already has a boyfriend. Actually, I think Chu Luo and the president look very compatible.”
…
Chu Luo didn’t care how everyone discussed her.
She had chosen a lot of courses, so she attended all of them at the sa ti. In order to not miss out on any, she discussed with the professors to ask them to record videos for her.
However, there were still many people waiting to see her panic.
Before class started, teachers from other specializations had discussed this in private.
“Imperial University’s specialization classes are packed to begin with. Chu Luo chose so many specializations at once. How much can she learn? I hope she doesn’t end up learning nothing.”
“That’s right. Instead of choosing so many specializations, she might as well specialize in one. I originally thought that she was a moldable talent, but now… Sigh… What a pity.”
“Just watch. I’m sure in less than a week, she’ll automatically give up.”
…
The first lesson Chu Luo attended was the French class in the foreign language school. When she walked into the classroom, the originally noisy classroom instantly fell silent.
Imperial University was the cradle of academia. No matter how gossipy people were usually, they would beco unusually serious during class, especially since Chu Luo was in the sa classroom.
Everyone subconsciously wanted to suppress her.
