Chapter 183: Cover Yourself Up First!
Chu Luo didn’t expect Li Yan to answer her like that. Her heart inexplicably started beating uncontrollably. She looked away in embarra.s.sment and said, “Who wants you to spend the rest of your life doing that? Shameless.”
Li Yan looked at her rapidly reddening earlobe and tilted his head to give it a peck.
Chu Luo abruptly raised her hand and covered her ear.
She reacted to his half-smile and pushed him angrily. “Big baddie, get out. Don’t disturb me here.”
Li Yan used the force of her push to walk out of the door. As he walked, he said, “I’ll call you at eleven.”
Chu Luo thought that this person would definitely find a way to go to her bedroom again tonight. She thought about returning to the bedroom earlier and setting up a small array in the bedroom so that he couldn’t enter.
She deliberately complained on the surface, “It’s too early. I don’t sleep until midnight.”
Li Yan’s expression became serious. “No.”
Chu Luo pursed her lips. “Your words don’t count.”
After saying that, she pushed him out and closed the door.
After she closed the door, the corners of her lips curled up before she went to write the life-extending prescription.
After the prescription was written, she went to grind the herbs.
At half-past ten, the alarm clock on her phone rang. She quickly packed her things, opened the door, and walked towards her bedroom.
After entering the bedroom, she quickly took out a talisman paper from her Heaven-and-Earth pouch and placed it on the door before muttering smugly, “Want to enter my bedroom? Hmph! You can stroll around outside tonight.”
After saying that, she turned around and saw the man lying on her bed.
“…” Chu Luo raised her voice. “When did you come to my bedroom?”
Li Yan watched her expression change several times and smiled. “Half an hour ago.”
Chu Luo took a deep breath and quickly walked to the bed.
“Get out.”
Li Yan lifted the blanket.
“Ahhh… quickly cover yourself with the blanket! You exhibitionist freak.”
“Luoluo, I’m wearing underwear.”
“What’s the difference between that and not wearing anything?”
“There’s a difference.”
“Cover yourself with the blanket first!” She was in no mood to hear him say that there was no difference between wearing underwear and not. She turned around to back-face him, but her face was red.
This was the first time she had seen a man’s body.
The impact was too great.
The scene from before replayed in her mind.
Her heart was pounding as if it was going to jump out at the next second.
Chu Luo didn’t know what to do now.
When the strong male aura surrounded her, her body trembled and she was stunned.
Li Yan turned her around and quickly pressed his lips against hers.
…
The next day, when Chu Luo opened her eyes, she was still thinking about what they had done last night.
A low and bewitching voice came from above her head. “What, haven’t you returned to your senses yet?”
Chu Luo looked up and found her forehead pressing against his chin.
Annoyed and embarra.s.sed, she knocked against his chin with her forehead.
“You… you…”
“We didn’t do it all the way.”
“…”
Could he not say such an embarra.s.sing thing?
“Luoluo.” Li Yan’s voice was low and hoa.r.s.e with restraint. “We’re husband and wife. It’s normal for us to do things that married couples do.”
Chu Luo covered her ears. “What are you talking about? I can’t hear you!”
Li Yan was amused by her adorable reaction. After laughing, he let his hand brazenly move upwards.
Chu Luo froze and wanted to grab his hand, her face red.
However, his other hand was tightly wrapped around her waist, and she couldn’t move at all.
“You… let go.”
“Promise me first that you’ll let me into your bedroom at night.”
“No… ooh…”
After a while.
“Are you agreeing or not?”
Li Yan’s tone was dangerous.
Chu Luo blinked. Soon, tears gathered in her eyes because she was too shy.
Li Yan’s heart melted.
He took his hand out and whispered into her ear in a scorching voice, “Luoluo, promise me.”
Chu Luo shrunk her neck and lowered her eyes to consider it.
Li Yan pulled her close and kissed the top of her head. “If you don’t answer, I’ll take it that you agreed.”
Chu Luo: “…”
…
In the end, Chu Luo chased Li Yan back to his room to wash up.
When she came downstairs after was.h.i.+ng up, she saw Li Yan standing by the window, looking out. Qin Ming was standing behind him.
At this moment, Qin Ming happened to say, “Master, Princess Anya is here in the empire.”
Before Li Yan could answer, Chu Luo stood on the stairs and asked unhappily, “Why is she here?”
Qin Ming turned around and told her, “She is representing her country to cooperate with the empire on a project.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she frowned. She stopped talking and walked downstairs.
Qin Ming didn’t say anything and waited for Li Yan’s instructions.
Li Yan had turned around when Chu Luo walked over, and he said, “Her coming to discuss a project has nothing to do with me.”
After saying that, he took Chu Luo’s hand and pulled her out of the door. As they walked, he said, “Let’s go out for morning practice.”
Qin Ming watched the two of them leave and was a little surprised that his master would give up the hundred billion yuan project for Miss Chu.
After Chu Luo and Li Yan walked out of the door, Chu Luo asked Li Yan, “Did Princess Anya come for you?”
Li Yan frowned and said sternly, “How would she dare.”
When Chu Luo heard these words, she was silent for a few seconds. Then, the corners of her lips curled up uncontrollably.
She stopped discussing this with him and got into her stance. “We’ll practice for half an hour. I’m going out next.”
When Li Yan heard that she was going out, his brows furrowed even more. “Where to?”
“To the Western Temple in the city to attend the Metaphysical Conference.”
Li Yan pursed his lips and nodded but didn’t say anything else.
After practicing for half an hour, they went to eat breakfast.
Jin Hui’s call came just as Chu Luo was about to leave.
Jin Hui asked Chu Luo, “Master Chu, are you on your way yet?”
Chu Luo replied, “I was just about to leave.”
Jin Hui smiled and said, “Then let’s meet outside Fangqing Temple. I’ll set off as well.”
Chu Luo replied, “Okay.”
After the two of them hung up, Chu Luo walked towards the garage.
Li Yan also wanted to go out, so the two of them walked over together.
Qin Ming was already waiting there.
Li Yan said, “I’ll send you there.”
Chu Luo looked at his handsome face and shook her head in disdain. “No. You’re too famous. People will point and gossip if I go with you.”
Li Yan: “…”
The fingers by his side twitched. In the end, he couldn’t help but want to pull her over.
Chu Luo seemed to have guessed what he was going to do. With a flash, she dodged towards her car and said, “Don’t let anyone discover that you are you when you go out. Otherwise, don’t come back to my place.”
With that, she got into the car and drove off.
Qin Ming sat in the driver’s seat and looked at his master, who stood there for a long time without moving. He suddenly felt a little sympathy in his heart. Why did such a proud and n.o.ble person’s status become so low after he fell for Miss Chu?
Li Yan stood for a while before getting into the car. His expression was no longer gentle like it had been in front of Chu Luo, becoming fierce and cold instead.
“To the office.”
…
Fangqing Temple was located on the outskirts of the city’s west side, and it occupied dozens of acres. The temple was an ancient site left behind from the previous century. It had an almond-yellow courtyard wall and a bluish-gray temple ridge. It had a very cultural ancient charm.
The environment nearby was also excellent. A large peach forest surrounded the outer wall of the temple. It was the season for peaches to mature. Chu Luo drove all the way there and opened the car window. The air was filled with an alluring peach fragrance.
The car finally stopped in the parking lot by the wall outside the temple.
When Chu Luo got off the car, she heard a voice calling her from the gate.
“Master Chu.”
At this moment, Jin Hui brought a few middle-aged men over.
Chu Luo walked over at the same time.
As they walked in, one of the middle-aged men was a little surprised. “Senior Brother, the Master Chu you’re talking about is this young friend?”
Another person chimed in at the same time, “Why do I feel that Master Chu looks very similar to this year’s college entrance examination top scholar?”
Jin Hui smiled and said, “Master Chu is this year’s college entrance examination top scholar, Chu Luo.”
When they heard this, they praised:
“As expected of a master. The best in every aspect.”
“The talismans that Master Chu asked President Jin to sell are really powerful. Master Chu must share with us your experience during our exchange activity.”
…
The group didn’t “flaunt their seniority” just because Chu Luo was young. Instead, they were very polite to her.
Chu Luo turned to look at Jin Hui. Jin Hui quickly introduced the group to her with a smile. “This is Lu Yungui from Province A, this is Zhang Ziyong from Province S, this is Cheng Bing from Province H, and this is Xie Mian from Province L. They are the organizers of this Metaphysical Conference and are my fellow disciples.”
Chu Luo greeted them, “h.e.l.lo.”
After exchanging greetings, the group walked towards the monastery’s door.
As Jin Hui walked, he said to Chu Luo, “There are a total of more than 50 people who came to partic.i.p.ate in the Metaphysical Conference this year. Most of them are representatives from the Metaphysics Society of the various provinces, and some are disciples sent by the metaphysics sects to study. The schedule goes like this…”
Accompanied by a simple explanation from Jin Hui, the six of them walked through the monastery’s door.
As soon as they entered the door, they saw an ancient tree in the courtyard. The ancient tree’s branches and leaves were so tall that they covered the sun. As they walked under the tree’s shade, a refres.h.i.+ng feeling spread throughout their bodies, making their minds much clearer.
“This tree has to be hundreds of years old.”
When Chu Luo walked by the tree root, she deliberately stopped for a moment and said in surprise, “To think it produced a tree soul that protects this temple.”
“Master is so capable to be able to tell this at a glance.”
The masters gave her a thumbs up.
“Tsk~”
At this moment, a young man in a green robe pa.s.sed by. The young man glanced at Chu Luo and said disdainfully, “Stop putting on airs! You’re just playing to the gallery!”
After saying that, he walked in first.
