Chapter 490: Who Said That There Are No Good Men in a Wealthy Family?
Everyone was a little stunned.
They really didn’t know what important matter Chu Luo was talking about, but an idea popped up in their hearts.
This time, everyone was silent for nearly two minutes. After Yu Tong swallowed a mouthful of saliva, she probed, “Chu Luo, are you getting married on New Year’s Day?”
Chu Luo tilted her head and looked at her with admiration in her eyes.
Then…
There was another silence.
This time, everyone was dumbfounded.
Chu Luo looked at the time and felt that they were being too long-winded. She said, “Let’s continue discussing the sponsors.h.i.+p.”
Everyone: “…”
At this moment, who still had the mood to consider such a trivial matter like getting sponsors.h.i.+ps?
Yu Tong raised her voice a few degrees. “Chu Luo, you’re really getting married on New Year’s Day!”
“Is there a problem?”
“No, no. It’s good to get married. You and CEO Li are simply a match made in heaven.”
Chu Luo was very satisfied with this and nodded.
After Yu Tong spoke, the others immediately spoke.
“Since Chu Luo and CEO Li are getting married, CEO Li will definitely hold a very grand and luxurious wedding. I really look forward to what kind of century-long wedding CEO Li will give Chu Luo.”
“The Blazing Glory Corporation has companies throughout the world. When the time comes, the upper echelons of those subsidiaries will definitely partic.i.p.ate. Maybe the royal families of the various countries will even send representatives over. Oh my G.o.d ~ Wouldn’t the important figures of the political and business world gather together then?”
“Chu Luo, will you invite us to your wedding?”
“Chu Luo, as your cla.s.smates, you must invite us.”
“Chu Luo, where are you and CEO Li getting married? Will you go for your honeymoon after you’re married?”
…
“Shh…”
Chu Luo gestured for everyone to stop and said, “This matter hasn’t been announced yet.”
“Got it, got it. We won’t tell anyone.”
Chu Luo didn’t actually mean that, but since everyone said that, she didn’t object. She only said, “The invitations haven’t been decided yet. I’ll consider everyone when the time comes.”
When the group of people heard this, they were so excited that their faces turned red.
As students, especially students from the Imperial University Student Union, they wanted to be more outstanding than others in the future. If they wanted to be outstanding, the first step was to expand their contacts. If Chu Luo and CEO Li got married, their wedding would gather all the important figures in the political and business world from all over the world. How could they not be excited?
Chu Luo tapped her fingers on the table. “Continue discussing the sponsors.h.i.+p.”
“Chu Luo.” Zhang Yiran quickly raised her hand. “Getting sponsors.h.i.+ps is our Liaison Department’s business. Don’t worry, I promise to get sponsors.h.i.+ps that the Student Union is satisfied with.”
Chu Luo smiled. “Very good. And the masks at the masked ball…”
“Chu Luo, leave the masks to our Procurement Department. Our Student Union has cooperation with a few shops in the capital’s largest market. When the time comes, we can have as many masks as we want.”
“As for the decorations and promotions of the masked gala, leave it to our Publicity Department and the Organization Department.”
…
Chu Luo thought in satisfaction, ‘Isn’t it easy to be the president of the Student Union?’
Why did the president have to personally do something that could be done by a group of cadres?
The meeting ended after an hour.
The group of Student Union employees seemed to have been injected with chicken blood and all started getting into action.
As for Chu Luo, she was obviously going to take a hands-off approach. She headed for cla.s.s.
After cla.s.s in the afternoon, Chu Luo had just come out of the cla.s.sroom when she received a call from Li Yan.
Li Yan was already waiting for her by the school gate.
Chu Luo strode out of the school building. Unexpectedly, just as she walked out on her skateboard, she was stopped by a few foreign Student Union members.
They were Hank’s cla.s.smates.
A girl said, “Chu Luo, Hank broke his leg. He wants you to visit him.”
Chu Luo looked at the girl as though she was being ridiculous and said straightforwardly, “I’m not free.”
“Why not? Hank just wants you to see him. As a cla.s.smate from a friendly school, this request isn’t too much, right?”
“In this world, there’s no law that stipulates that I have to see Hank. I have no intention of visiting him. Can’t I not?”
“But…”
“Shut up. I don’t have so much time to argue with you here. Tell Hank to drink less if he can’t hold his liquor. Otherwise, it won’t be Imperial University that will be embarra.s.sed, but X University.”
“You…”
“Am I wrong?”
The girl blushed a little at the thought of Hank’s behavior last night. If Hank hadn’t repeatedly asked her to let Chu Luo go to the hospital to visit him, she wouldn’t have wanted to Chu Luo on the way.
Since Chu Luo had said that, she could only move aside.
Chu Luo stepped on the skateboard and left.
As soon as she walked out of the door, she saw a group of cars parked there.
It was extremely ostentatious.
At this moment, there were already many people by the school gate. After everyone saw the row of luxurious cars, they all stopped and pointed at the cars, whispering.
The moment Chu Luo came out, everyone discussed even more fiercely.
“CEO Li actually picked Chu Luo up in such a grand manner today. Are the two of them going to attend some important banquet?”
“It’s possible, but it’s also possible that CEO Li just went to an important event and came straight to Imperial University to pick Chu Luo up.”
“Every morning, when I saw CEO Li send Chu Luo here with only two bodyguards’ cars, I didn’t think that CEO Li looked very rich. Now, this extravagance is comparable to that of a royal family, right?”
“Not only that, I feel that the car CEO Li is sitting in must be the only modified super luxury car in the world. Also, those bodyguards’ cars, have you seen any bodyguard who can drive a car worth millions?”
“That’s true. This is the demeanor of the world’s richest man.”
…
After Chu Luo got into the car, Li Yan said to her, “Go back and change your clothes first.”
Chu Luo nodded and called Wu Yiyao.
Wu Yiyao had cla.s.s this afternoon too. She had just finished cla.s.s and was on the way to meet up with Professor Wu.
As she walked, she said, “Little Chu, I just finished cla.s.s. Where are you?”
Chu Luo said, “I’ll go back and change first.”
Wu Yiyao: “Alright, I’m going to change my clothes later too. Let’s meet up at XX Road.”
Chu Luo replied, “Okay.”
After hanging up, Chu Luo said to Li Yan, “Yan, I’ll get Professor Wu and the others to come with us.”
Li Yan nodded and grabbed her hand.
Chu Luo smiled at him and leaned her head on his shoulder. She asked, “Who from the Qin family and the Duanmu family do you think is going over? Other than a group of women, there don’t seem to be many men in the Qin family.”
Other than Old Master Qin.
However, after all the men from the Qin family disappeared in the desert, Old Master Qin had been bedridden. It was said that he was about to die.
“The Qin family also has illegitimate children.”
Chu Luo looked up at him.
“You mean, the Qin family brought back the Qin family’s illegitimate child?”
“Yes, they’ll be attending the banquet tonight.”
“They? There’s more than one?”
“Mm.”
“How many?”
“Three.”
Chu Luo was silent for a while before sighing. “Indeed, there are no clean men in wealthy families. Don’t tell me their family has one illegitimate child per branch?”
Displeased to hear this, Li Yan pulled her into his arms and said, “Who said that there are no good men in wealthy families? Am I not one?”
Chu Luo looked at Li Yan, who was deliberately sulking, and giggled. “You’re a big baddie.”
The moment Li Yan moved his hand on her waist, Chu Luo laughed and pushed him.
Seeing that she couldn’t push his hand away, Chu Luo quickly pleaded, “I was wrong.”
Li Yan breathed hot air into her ear. “What did you do wrong?”
However, his hand deliberately moved naughtily on her waist.
Chu Luo trembled and quickly pressed his hand down. “I won’t give you a chance to be a bad man. If you dare to fool around outside, I’ll… I’ll…”
“What would you do to me?”
Chu Luo said fiercely, “I’ll break your legs and tie you up.”
When Li Yan heard this, he chuckled in Chu Luo’s ear.
The laughter was low and bewitching. Chu Luo couldn’t stand it anymore and turned her ears away.
The car quickly drove back to their villa.
The two of them went upstairs to change.
The evening gown Li Yan had prepared for Chu Luo was an improved two-piece set of Han attire and a short fox-fur cloak that kept her warm.
The cloak was red and furry, making Chu Luo’s fair and flawless face look extremely charming.
After Chu Luo did her hair, she was simply a beautiful cla.s.sical beauty.
Chu Luo put on the outfit and walked around Li Yan. “Is it nice?”
“Yes.”
Li Yan pulled her over and said, “You’re more suitable for wearing ancient clothes.”
Chu Luo giggled. She looked at him in his black coat and raised her hand to touch it. “I want to see you in ancient clothes too.”
Li Yan grabbed her hand and kissed it before saying, “I’ll wear it when we get married.”
“Really?”
“Mm.”
Chu Luo looked forward to it.
The two of them went downstairs to XX Street to meet up with Professor Wu and the others.
Chu Luo asked the chauffeur to drive the car parallel to Professor Wu’s.
The car window rolled down and the other side rolled down at the same time. Both sides greeted each other and drove towards the Shang residence.
The Shang family villa was in a famous wealthy district in the capital. When their cars drove over, there were luxury cars everywhere outside the villa.
At this moment, the Shang residence was filled with joy and excitement. There were guests congratulating them, and the Shang family was smiling brightly. The villa was brightly lit both inside and outside. There was a large red carpet on the ground outside the door, and flowers, balloons, and ribbons were placed everywhere. It could be seen how highly the Shang family viewed the bride.
When the car Chu Luo and the others were in arrived, everyone who was chatting and congratulating them stopped and looked over.
Then, some people started whispering.
“CEO Li is actually attending the Shang family’s wedding banquet tonight.”
“The Shang family is really capable. On top of the Qin family and the Duanmu family, they even managed to invite CEO Li.”
…
A few Shang family members who were receiving guests by the door quickly strode over.
After Chu Luo and the others alighted, Chu Luo glanced at the Shang family member who immediately came to chat with Li Yan. She tilted her head to look at Wu Yiyao’s attire and asked, “Sister Wu, aren’t you afraid of the cold wearing that?”
Although Wu Yiyao was wearing a winter cheongsam, a cheongsam was meant to be tight-fitting. Even if it was winter, there was only a layer of cotton inside.
Wu Yiyao also glanced at her clothes and said with a smile, “You look good in this kind of clothes.” Then, she replied, “I brought along a coat.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a long white down jacket was draped over her.
Wu Yiyao introduced the man to Chu Luo. “This is my cousin, Tan Junhua.”
Before the two of them could greet each other, a man’s voice sounded. “Little Yao, long time no see..”
