Chapter 271: On and On
As Chu Luo didn’t receive her books the day before National Day, every specialization professor asked the cla.s.s representative to place her books on her desk.
Perhaps on purpose, the place where the books had been placed was in the middle of the cla.s.sroom.
After Chu Luo sat down, everyone looked at her.
She didn’t mind at all. She picked up the topmost book and started reading.
When the professor entered the cla.s.sroom, she had almost finished reading the books of this specialization.
“Chu Luo.”
After the cla.s.s ended, the professor stopped Chu Luo, who was about to walk out of the cla.s.sroom with her books.
Chu Luo stopped and looked at her.
The others subconsciously stopped.
The professor said, “Although the first semester’s curriculum is relatively simple, they are the basics. You can only keep up after you have a good foundation, so you can’t slack off.”
Chu Luo nodded. “Okay.”
The professor added, “If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask me after cla.s.s.”
Chu Luo thought for a while and carried the few books in her arms to the podium. She placed the books on the lecture table and took out the books for this cla.s.s. She quickly flipped to the middle and pointed at a spot. “Here, I’m not sure about this grammar. Also here…”
“…”
“…”
The professor was stunned for a moment before asking, “Have you mastered the content in front?”
“Right, these are all the basics. I just read it and I learned it.”
“…”
“Professor, I still have to attend other cla.s.ses.”
“Oh, oh, this is… Chu Luo, do you understand?”
“I understand. Thank you, Professor.”
“Is there anything else that you do not understand?”
“Yes. I’m not very accurate with some p.r.o.nunciations, but there’s not enough time now.”
“I see. You can ask me in private. My number is…”
“Okay, Professor. I’ll leave first.”
After Chu Luo walked out of the cla.s.sroom with her books in satisfaction, the professor standing on the podium put away the teaching materials with a complicated mood. Looking up and seeing the others who were still stunned in their seats, she reminded them, “Students, do you not have cla.s.s anymore?”
Only then did everyone put away their books and quickly leave the cla.s.sroom.
The moment they walked out of the cla.s.sroom, everyone exploded.
“D*mn! Did Chu Luo make a rocket in cla.s.s? The professor taught only the first lesson, but she’s asking about the middle part. I didn’t understand anything just now.”
“Me too. During the holidays, I even specially revised my specialization cla.s.ses. I realized that I basically didn’t understand anything. Chu Luo actually more or less understood most of it.”
“I keep feeling that Chu Luo is puffing herself up at her own cost.”
“Maybe she revised this cla.s.s during the holidays and deliberately performed in the first cla.s.s.”
“No matter what, I think I should be more serious. If I can’t even compare to Chu Luo, who is studying a few specializations, isn’t that too embarra.s.sing?”
“Yes, yes, yes…”
Everyone instantly felt immense pressure.
Then, the first-year professors and the school heads realized that as long as they were in the same cla.s.s as Chu Luo, the students would be more hardworking than the ones in the other cla.s.ses.
Chu Luo, the “culprit,” had no idea.
After a full day of cla.s.s, the sky had already darkened.
At this moment, dozens of textbooks had piled up on Chu Luo’s desk.
A few cla.s.smates walked over and said to her enthusiastically, “Chu Luo, you have so many textbooks. Let’s help you move them.”
Chu Luo was about to speak when a loud voice suddenly came from the cla.s.sroom door. “Sister Chu, we’re here to move your books.”
Chu Luo looked up and nodded at w.a.n.g Mingtao, Tang Zhiyun, and the other three when she saw them.
w.a.n.g Mingtao and the others walked in from the cla.s.sroom door.
The five guys each took a few books from her until there were no more books on the table.
Tang Zhiyun said to the other boys standing there with a smile, “Thank you for your kindness, everyone. We will help Junior carry her books going forward.”
The boys looked at the five of them and left tactfully.
w.a.n.g Mingtao then winked at Chu Luo. “Sister Chu, how was your cla.s.s today?”
“Very good.”
The group walked out of the cla.s.sroom.
As w.a.n.g Mingtao walked, he said to Chu Luo, “Sister Chu, we agreed to celebrate together after school starts. You’re free tonight, right?”
Chu Luo stuffed an earpiece into her ear. Thinking that it was fine to go to the laboratory after dinner, she nodded while listening to some foreign language audio.
“Then let’s help you get the books back to where you live…”
“I’m moving out,” Chu Luo said. “The bodyguard is by the school gate. He’ll help me take the books back when the time comes.”
“Where are you moving to?”
“Imperial Sky Park.”
“Isn’t that the most luxurious villa area near Imperial University?”
w.a.n.g Mingtao’s voice was a little high. After saying that, he saw many people looking at them and quickly stopped.
The six of them walked out of the school building and headed to the bicycle parking spot. Only then did they realize that there were only three bicycles left.
w.a.n.g Mingtao scratched his head. “How are we going to ride three bicycles?”
“Why don’t two people share one bike?” Xie Minghai suggested.
Chu Luo didn’t mind. She walked over and swiped a bike before hopping on.
Tang Zhiyun and Yu Lei also went to get a bike.
Everyone placed Chu Luo’s books in the baskets. Xie Minghai and Xu Qingfeng each sat in the back seat.
w.a.n.g Mingtao stood there dumbfounded. “Then what should I do?”
“Sit with me.” Chu Luo pointed at the back of her bike.
“But…”
w.a.n.g Mingtao pointed at Chu Luo and then at himself. “Our sizes are so different. It’s so strange for me to sit in the back.”
Chu Luo glanced at him. “If you don’t want to sit, you can just run behind us.”
“…”
“Hahaha…”
The other four boys laughed unkindly.
After laughing, Tang Zhiyun said, “We will leave first. Hurry up.”
With that, he rode out with Yu Lei.
Chu Luo glanced at him and drove out.
w.a.n.g Mingtao looked at Chu Luo, who had “heartlessly” left, and chased after her. As he chased her, he said, “Sister Chu, let me take you. I’m a grown boy, so it’s embarra.s.sing to let a young girl like you take me.”
“No,” Chu Luo said. “Sit or not, if you want. If not, run along.”
w.a.n.g Mingtao’s stubborn temper flared up. “So be it. I won’t sit in the back seat of a girl no matter what.”
“How fussy.”
Along the way, everyone watched as a boy chased after Chu Luo’s bike. It was an eye-catching sight.
Ten minutes later.
w.a.n.g Mingtao, who was panting from running, finally pleaded, “Sister Chu, wait for me. I can’t run anymore.”
Chu Luo slowed the bike down and gestured to him. “Come on up.”
Like a young wife, w.a.n.g Mingtao ran to the back seat of her bike and hopped on. He stretched his long legs out.
However, as soon as he sat down, he suddenly felt very embarra.s.sed. He even laughed and said to Chu Luo, “Sister Chu, do you think I’ve already become the target of envy, jealousy, and hatred?”
After saying that, he even whistled at the people who were pointing at them. He looked very punch-worthy.
Chu Luo: “…”
Chu Luo sped up to catch up with Tang Zhiyun and the others. But at this moment, her phone rang in the basket.
Chu Luo stopped the bike and pressed the answer b.u.t.ton on her earpiece.
Nangong Yi’s voice came from the earpiece. “Junior Chu, I’ve sent the Student Union application form to your email. Take note.”
Chu Luo casually responded with an “Mm” and said, “I’m riding a bike. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up.”
Nangong Yi: “Alright, be careful.”
Then she hung up.
At this moment, a shout came from the side. “Isn’t that w.a.n.g Mingtao? w.a.n.g Mingtao!”
Chu Luo and w.a.n.g Mingtao turned around at the same time.
She happened to see Wu Siyi tugging at Xiao Ling’s arm to stop her from screaming.
However, Xiao Ling didn’t listen to her. She even shouted, “w.a.n.g Mingtao, you b.u.mped into Siyi and you didn’t even say a word of concern when you saw her.”
These words immediately attracted more attention.
w.a.n.g Mingtao muttered in embarra.s.sment, “This Xiao Ling keeps going on and on.”
Chu Luo glanced over and asked coldly, “What’s going on?”
“I’ve been receiving calls from her every day for the past few days, all of which were to accuse me of being irresponsible.”
Hearing this, Chu Luo stopped the bike.
At the same time, Xiao Ling pulled a reluctant Wu Siyi over.
When everyone saw that there was a show to watch, they all stopped.
The moment Xiao Ling came over, she glared at w.a.n.g Mingtao as if he was a heartless man. “You b.u.mped into Siyi yet you showed up only once on the first day. You didn’t even call to ask after her after so many days. Shouldn’t you ask her how her leg is?”
w.a.n.g Mingtao had a straightforward temper to begin with. After seeing Xiao Ling confounding black and white, he instantly exploded.
Just as he was about to speak, Chu Luo suddenly called out to him, “Mingtao, hold the bike.”
w.a.n.g Mingtao paused and subconsciously took the handrail of the bike.
Seeing many people taking out their phones to take photos, Chu Luo walked up to Wu Siyi and Xiao Ling and asked, “How’s your leg?”
“You…”
“Shut up!”
Chu Luo’s voice fell and Xiao Ling was instantly stunned by her aura.
Chu Luo stared at Wu Siyi. Wu Siyi’s body trembled and she suddenly couldn’t breathe.
She subconsciously lowered her head and said, “It’s… already healed.”
“Did the restaurant send you three meals from the 1st to the 3rd?”
“They… they did.”
Chu Luo narrated calmly, “Mingtao’s father sprained his waist the day before National Day. His family grows flowers. All kinds of holidays are when their business does best. Uncle w.a.n.g sprained his waist, so Mingtao had to do all the work. Auntie w.a.n.g had woken up early in the morning to brew nouris.h.i.+ng soup for the first two meals. Later, when Mingtao wasn’t free, he asked me to help him order three meals for two days in a row from the school restaurant. Each meal cost 200 yuan…”
Chu Luo suddenly stopped here.
