Chapter 325: How Dare You Threaten Me!
Chu Luo smiled. “I don’t know either.”
However, she had already guessed who it was and planned to ask later.
Everyone: “…”
Could there have been a supernatural incident? The live broadcast of Chu Luo’s painting had appeared on the main page of her school’s BBS account out of the blue?
Chu Luo walked towards the control room while everyone was in a daze.
At this moment, besides Tang Zhiyun and Wu Yiyao, w.a.n.g Mingtao, Xie Minghai, and the others were also in the control room.
“Senior Xie, Senior Yu, Senior Xu, you’re here too.”
Xie Minghai grinned at her. “Coincidentally, we had nothing to do today. We heard from Old Tang that you needed manpower here, so we rushed over.”
Yu Lei said to her, “Junior, why didn’t you tell us if you need help? As long as you say the word, we will definitely come immediately.”
Chu Luo smiled. “It’s just a simple scene surveillance and doesn’t require much technical skills. That’s why I didn’t invite all of you over.”
“Haha… It’s okay, it’s okay. As long as you need help, you can call us no matter how small it is.”
“Okay.”
Chu Luo walked to the monitor and glanced at the various surveillance cameras.
At this moment, the people in the hall were still chatting.
Xie Minghai pointed at the school heads and laughed. “Junior, look. These school heads are smiling so brightly. Everyone must be talking about your painting today.”
w.a.n.g Mingtao replied with a proud expression, “It’s fine if our Sister Chu doesn’t do anything, but once she does, she’s explosive. Just now, I browsed the Internet and someone has already offered five million yuan to buy that painting.”
Xie Minghai said, “Five million yuan? That’s too low an amount. The Education Bureau, the Painting a.s.sociation, and Imperial Capital are all fighting for this painting. I think five million yuan is too little.”
“Definitely! I think Sister Chu’s painting costs more than 50 million yuan.”
“Junior’s painting captured the essence of Imperial University, and that makes it a priceless treasure.”
…
The group of student union cadres who were walking to the door: “…”
Was it that exaggerated?
Zhang Yiran muttered awkwardly, “They’re really good at sucking up.”
Chu Luo happened to hear this and turned to look at them.
Nangong Yi walked in first and said, “Junior, the school’s heads are treating the people from the Education Department and the Painting a.s.sociation to a meal later. They want us to go together.”
Chu Luo looked at him and asked, “Your Student Union’s test for me also includes eating?”
“No, but…”
“I’m not going.”
After saying that, Chu Luo retracted her gaze.
Yu Tong, who was standing beside Nangong Yi, didn’t expect Chu Luo to reject him so readily. She advised, “Chu Luo, go ahead. This is a good opportunity. Show your face in front of them more. It will help your development in the world of painting and calligraphy.”
Chu Luo turned her gaze over and asked strangely, “Why should I develop in the world of painting and calligraphy? The four arts are just my hobbies.”
At this point, she suddenly remembered something very important. She said to Nangong Yi sternly, “Nangong Yi, if you go to eat with them later, remember to help me ask when the certificate will be given out.”
Everyone: “…”
Everyone suddenly had an illusion that Chu Luo was only concerned about the award certificate.
Nangong Yi was amused by Chu Luo’s serious instructions. He said, “Junior, shouldn’t you ask about this yourself?”
“That’s true.”
Chu Luo glanced at the monitor. The group in the hall was about to walk out of the door.
Chu Luo took out her phone and pressed a b.u.t.ton. She saw Roundy, who had been standing in the aisle beside the auditorium, suddenly walk up to the group of people and stop them.
Roundy said, “Master asked me to ask you, when will the certificate for first place be awarded?”
He Zhiqian, who was walking in the middle, looked at the fat robot in front of him and said in dissatisfaction, “Can’t Chu Luo ask about it herself?”
Chu Luo’s voice sounded behind them. “If I ask personally, will I get the award certificate tomorrow?”
Everyone subconsciously turned to look at her. He Zhiqian stared at her expression for a while. After confirming that she was serious, he got a little angry and didn’t answer her. He said in a firm tone, “Chu Luo, let’s go eat. Come with us.”
“No.” Chu Luo had never thought of giving him face.
“Hey! Why are you so not adorable, you wretched girl? Do you believe that I will disqualify you from joining the Painting a.s.sociation?”
“Whatever. Just remember to give me the certificate award.”
It didn’t matter to Chu Luo whether she joined the Painting a.s.sociation or not. She just liked to get more certificates and awards.
After saying that, Chu Luo walked backstage.
He Zhiqian was so angry that he was fuming.
“You… you wretched girl!”
An Imperial University school’s head quickly comforted him. “President He, don’t be angry.”
“How can I not be angry? Look at that wretched girl’s att.i.tude!” He Zhiqian pointed at Chu Luo’s back and was so angry that he didn’t know what to say.
The Imperial University school’s head gloated in his heart and deliberately suggested, “President He, Chu Luo has this kind of temper. If you’re angry, you can hold back her award certificate for a few days.”
“Why would I do that? She deserves it!”
“…”
When Chu Luo returned backstage, the people from the Student Union were still there.
She glanced at everyone and asked, “Aren’t you guys leaving?”
The Sports Department Minister smiled and said, “There’s a group of people outside. We’ll be responsible for protecting you later.”
Chu Luo glanced at him with a wooden face and walked to the control room.
Wu Yiyao and the others had already turned off the equipment in the control room and were waiting for her.
w.a.n.g Mingtao suggested, “Sister Chu, let’s go celebrate tonight.”
Chu Luo planned to go back early tonight to see Professor Tang and the others’ experiment progress. She thought for a while and said, “Okay, I have something to do after dinner. Yan will pick me up later. Let’s go eat together.”
The boys looked at each other with mixed emotions and excitement in their eyes. However, there was still a group of people from the Student Union around, so they didn’t say anything.
When the group of people standing by the door heard that they were going to celebrate, they all licked their lips and said.
“Chu Luo, how can you leave us out of the celebration? We’ll be colleagues from now on.”
“That’s right. You planned the reception and event so perfect this time. Tell us how you did it and let us learn from it.”
…
Chu Luo glanced at them and finally s.h.i.+fted her gaze to Nangong Yi, who was smiling.
Nangong Yi said, “I’ve been working like an ox for you for the past two days. Even if you don’t bring them along, you should bring me with you?”
The staff of the Student Union looked at Nangong Yi with bright eyes.
Nangong Yi continued without any burden in his heart, “I’ll treat everyone at the gathering. Consider it a thank you for giving everyone from the Student Union the most outstanding lesson this time.”
Yu Tong quickly stood on Chu Luo’s side, looking like she was with Chu Luo.
Tang Zhiyun and the others were stunned by the shamelessness of Nangong Yi and the cadre of the Student Union. They thought that indeed, some people should only exist in legends and couldn’t be interacted with.
Chu Luo retracted her gaze with a wooden face and looked at Wu Yiyao and the others. “Let’s go out first. There are many people outside at this time.”
They nodded.
The large group of them walked out of the hall.
As soon as they walked out of the door, they saw a large group of people blocked by the robots.
When they saw Chu Luo, they immediately screamed in excitement.
The reporters quickly asked her questions.
“Chu Luo, you’re so talented in painting. Why didn’t you show it before? Did you deliberately hide your talent?”
“Chu Luo, your Imperial University originally had a contestant. Why did she get injured right before the compet.i.tion?”
“Chu Luo, why did President He personally name you to partic.i.p.ate in this compet.i.tion? Did you know each other before? Or does President He know your legendary rich boyfriend? Was it your boyfriend who bought this spot with money?”
“Chu Luo…”
…
These reporters weren’t as polite as the reporters who had entered the hall. They asked whatever topic was more eye-catching.
The group of people standing beside Chu Luo were unhappy. w.a.n.g Mingtao was about to stand up and curse.
Chu Luo raised her hand to stop him and shouted in a low voice, “Shut up, all of you.”
The moment Chu Luo spoke, she suppressed them with a powerful aura which made them shut up.
Chu Luo looked at the reporters and asked straightforwardly, “What reason do you have to ask me these questions now? I’m not a celebrity. Why should I answer these idiotic questions?”
The group of reporters didn’t expect Chu Luo to have such a vicious mouth. They immediately flew into a rage out of humiliation.
“We’re reporters.”
“Reporter? Can reporters disrespect people’s privacy? Also, everyone knows that I attend cla.s.ses in a few colleges every day. I’ve personally experienced everything that I drew in the painting. Say, I bought a spot in the compet.i.tion. Are you going to accuse me of faking my painting?”
“I’m not.”
Anyone with eyes could tell that it was impossible for Chu Luo to fake it, so the reporter’s tone was especially weak when he answered.
“No. Then how did your question come about? Do you have evidence? Do you know the girl with the injured hand? Did she tell you herself?”
“Er…” That reporter was a little angry at being asked and was about to roll his eyes.
Chu Luo’s voice became stern. “This is Imperial University. Not everyone can be impudent here. Reporter, I advise you to think twice before you speak.”
“How… How dare you threaten me!”
“Chu Luo isn’t the only one threatening you. Our Imperial University Student Union will be her backing.” Nangong Yi stood up and said, “I let you in today because of special circ.u.mstances. Don’t forget where this is.”
Tang Zhiyun stood in front of Chu Luo. “Junior is the G.o.ddess of our Computer Science department. You people can try. See if you’ll get unlucky.”
The reporters were shocked and suddenly felt a thin layer of sweat on their backs.
How could they have forgotten that Imperial University’s students were not to be trifled with?
