Chapter 163 - Teach the Rude Man a Lesson

Li Yan then walked upstairs.

Chu Luo subconsciously followed him as she asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Business.” Li Yan shut his mouth and didn’t speak again.

The two of them walked upstairs together. Chu Luo didn’t want to enter his bedroom at first.

Li Yan suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her in.

After entering, Li Yan let go of her hand and said as he walked in, “Give me one more of that pill.”

“Are you still in pain?”

“A little.”

Chu Luo suddenly felt a little guilty, but when she thought of this person’s evil deeds last night, she immediately put away that guilt. She took out the bottle of medicine and handed it to him. With a serious expression, she said, “I’ll give you this bottle. Treat it as my payment to buy your wine.”

Li Yan held the bottle and looked at her with his dark eyes.

“What? You think it’s not enough?!” Chu Luo thought that he felt he was at a disadvantage. She snorted and said, “If I sell this medicine, it will be worth a thousand gold coins. It’s much more valuable than your wine.”

Li Yan looked at her tsundere expression and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. He suddenly bent down and kissed her on the cheek.

“Li Yan!” Chu Luo instantly exploded. “You lecher, how dare you take advantage of me again!”

She was about to slap him.

Li Yan stood up straight and didn’t dodge. He only said, “My internal injuries from last night haven’t fully recovered. If you slap me again, I think I won’t have to take this medicine anymore.”

When Chu Luo heard this, her outstretched hand stopped in midair. In the next second, she retracted it and turned to leave.

“I might not come back tonight,” Li Yan said from behind her.

“What does that have to do with me?”

Chu Luo continued walking.

“If I can’t resolve this matter, I can’t come back tomorrow either.”

Chu Luo didn’t answer him. She had already walked to the door.

When she walked out of the door, Li Yan finally said, “You’re not allowed to stay alone with Neeson.”

Chu Luo finally stopped in her tracks. She turned around and glared at him fiercely. She snorted and left without saying anything.

The next day, Li Yan didn’t return.

Chu Luo took a taxi to the “Battle of Lightyears” gaming company.

The car stopped outside the gate surrounded by security guards.

Chu Luo put on her mask and alighted from the car. Immediately, waves of screams could be heard.

“Bai Ling! Bai Ling…”

Following that was the clicking of the cameras and the loud questions from the reporters.

“Bai Ling, where did you go yesterday? Why couldn’t we contact you?”

“Bai Ling, I heard that you’re a royal lady from the empire. Are you wearing a mask because your identity can’t be exposed?”

“Bai Ling, many game companies want you to endorse them. Will you agree?”

“Bai Ling, I heard that a man wearing a mask came to your banquet the night before yesterday to help you drink. Who is that person to you?”

…

Tang Zhiyun and the others, who had been waiting there, walked over when Chu Luo got off the car.

Hearing these reporters’ questions, they frowned.

Tang Zhiyun said, “Junior, let’s go in quickly. These reporters are so annoying. Why are they spinning circles around you instead of those famous celebrities?”

Xie Minghai chimed in, “Luckily, the gaming team had foresight and allowed our junior to wear a mask from the start. Otherwise, things would have been troublesome.”

As they spoke, they walked into the company building.

At this moment, the ten people from the second and third teams were already waiting there.

There were a few staff members standing in the hall.

A staff member was saying, “When all of you from the three teams are here, we’ll go to the game research center to take a look.”

As soon as the staff finished speaking, one of them complained in a displeased tone, “Women are indeed troublesome. She actually made a large group of us wait for just her. Couldn’t she have come over earlier?”

Hearing this, Xie Minghai asked bluntly, “Is it the stipulated time yet?”

Everyone looked over.

When everyone saw the masked Chu Luo, the people standing at the back started whispering.

“Why is she still wearing a mask? I thought I could see her face today.”

“Could she really be an imperial princess in the empire? Is that why she doesn’t remove her mask?”

“I don’t think so. If she really is a royal princess, why didn’t she bring a bodyguard? Maybe it’s because she’s too beautiful that she’s afraid of causing a commotion.”

“It’s possible.”

…

Xie Minghai’s words had choked that person. He glanced at Chu Luo and deliberately whispered to the others, “How can someone who can play the game so forcefully be beautiful? I think she must be too ugly to face anyone…”

Chu Luo suddenly glanced at him sharply.

That person seemed to have been strangled by something. His heart skipped a beat and he couldn’t continue.

Only then did Chu Luo say in a displeased tone, “Whoever is unhappy with me can just PK in-game. The world always compares talkative women to gossipy women. I think some men are even more talkative than women.”

“Who are you talking about?”

When the man heard this, he suppressed his fear, and, relying on his tall and burly appearance, immediately stood up and shook his fist at Chu Luo, wanting to scare the especially petite girl.

“Ha!”

Chu Luo sneered. Some people didn’t know their own limits unless they were taught a lesson, especially men who looked down on women.

She didn’t stand on ceremony. She pinched a pill between her fingers and used a trace of internal energy to flick it onto that person’s knee. The pill exploded in an instant and splashed on him. At the same time, he bent his knees and knelt heavily on the ground.

Bam!

That sound made everyone else feel pain for him.

“Oww… Who hit me!”

After he let out a scream, that person’s face contorted in pain.

Chu Luo happened to be standing in front of him and said in a clear and pleasant voice, “Even if you lost to me in the game, you don’t have to bow so respectfully.”

“Pfft…”

A few people couldn’t help but laugh.

When that person heard this, his face twisted even more. “Shit! You… Mm…”

Before he could curse, his expression changed drastically and cold sweat rolled down his face.

His lips trembled as he said with a pained expression, “My… my knees seem to be broken. It hurts! Ouch~~”

Many people were shocked. Under the chaos and the watchful eyes of the reporters outside the door, the staff quickly called for the doctors in the company to bring him for a checkup.

One of the staff even asked the other four members of “The Strongest Paladin,” “Do you need to send someone to take care of that gentleman?”

The members of “The Strongest Paladin” looked at each other. Captain Reuben said, “No need. We believe the doctor will take good care of Deji.”

What a joke. They were about to visit the Game Research and Development Center. Who would want to miss such a rare opportunity?

Seeing that no one was going to take care of that person, the staff didn’t say anything. He first looked at the time and said, “It’s nine o’clock. Everyone, please follow me.”

Everyone walked in together.

Unexpectedly, the game development center wasn’t in this building.

Instead, it was behind the building.

When they walked out of the back door, they saw a huge open space. On the opposite side of the open space, a high-tech circular building appeared in front of them. The exterior walls of the building were all made of special blue glass steel.

The glass glowed blue in the sunlight.

When the staff member led everyone to the door of the building, he suddenly stopped.

“Everyone, because there are many experiments that our company doesn’t publicize at this stage, before you enter, please take out all your electronic items and place them in a nearby locker.”

When everyone entered, there was a fully automatic detector by the door.

“When we enter, everyone needs to sign a non-disclosure agreement. I hope everyone can cooperate.”

The staff’s request was reasonable. Even those who had planned otherwise had to take out their electronic devices and put them in their lockers.

Tang Zhiyun put away their cell phones and watches into a cabinet.

Xie Minghai said excitedly, “I’m inexplicably excited every time I go to the school’s science and technology building. To be able to visit the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ Game Research and Development Center today feels like a dream.”

Yu Lei agreed. “I was so excited last night that I played games for the entire night. I still can’t control my excitement.”

Although Tang Zhiyun and Xu Qingfeng didn’t say anything, they couldn’t conceal their excitement either.

After placing the electronic products on them in their lockers, everyone followed the staff towards the door.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

After they’d walked past the automatic testing door, a spacious hall appeared in front of them.

The hall was divided into sections and displayed the internal system equipment and data of every generation of “Battle of Lightyears.” On the wall were advertisements and endorsement posters for every generation of the game.

Everyone exclaimed in admiration.

One of the staff members said to everyone, “Everyone, you can take a look around the hall for a while. We’ll continue touring elsewhere in an hour.”

Hearing this, everyone immediately dispersed.

“Heavens, the database of the first generation of ‘Battle of Lightyears’ is actually so huge. As expected of a gaming company that hasn’t declined for a long time!”

“The Blazing Glory Corporation is too powerful! To think the code converter that many gaming companies use nowadays, Blazing Glory had switched to using it in the second generation!”

…

Various exclamations sounded.

Chu Luo and the others stood in front of one of the generations and discussed.

At this moment, a voice suddenly called her name from behind. “Bai Ling.”
