Chapter 177 - You Dont Have to Worry About Me Anymore

The moment he got off the plane, the boys jumped in excitement, especially Wang Mingtao. His father had personally driven to pick him up.

When Wang Mingtao saw his father, he immediately shouted lovingly, “Daddy~~”

Mr. Wang and Wang Mingtao were indeed father and son. Their looks were similar to one another. They immediately ran towards each other with a smile.

However, the touching scene of the father-and-son pair meeting didn’t happen. Just as Wang Mingtao threw down his luggage and was about to give him a big hug, Mr. Wang pushed him away and walked towards Chu Luo with a smile that was as vibrant as a flower.

“You must be Little Chu.”

“Yes, hello, Uncle Wang.”

“Okay, okay, okay.” No matter how Mr. Wang looked at her, he felt that Chu Luo was shining. He said, “You’re too amazing. Not only are you the best in the country in your studies, but you’re also good at games… Mmfff…”

Wang Mingtao had quickly covered Mr. Wang’s mouth and said in a low voice, “Dad, Sister Chu’s identity is a secret. Don’t say anything.”

After saying that, he looked around worriedly.

There were already many people looking over.

“That girl looks like the college entrance examination top scholar, Chu Luo.”

“It’s obvious. Chu Luo is so recognizable.”

“Was she on a graduation trip with her classmates?”

“Oh my god, I actually saw my goddess at the airport. This won’t do. I have to post it on my Moments to show off.”

…

The boys quickly surrounded Chu Luo with tacit understanding and blocked those people from secretly taking photos. Everyone quickly walked out.

Mr. Wang said, “I knew you were coming back, so I drove a van here.”

When everyone walked out, they indeed saw a van parked there.

As he walked, Mr. Wang said to them enthusiastically, “Mingtao’s mother has already prepared dinner at home. She’s waiting for you guys to come back.”

After saying that, he looked at Chu Luo and sighed. “You’re indeed a child from another family. How can you be so good-looking and have such a brilliant mind? Uncle Wang here doesn’t know how to thank you for all the money you’ve earned for me this time around.”

Chu Luo was friendly to people who were friendly to her in return. She smiled and said, “Uncle Wang earned the money through his own judgment. It has nothing to do with me.”

“Hahaha… Not only is Little Chu good at studying and has good looks, but she’s also a humble child.”

After saying that, Mr. Wang glanced at Wang Mingtao with disdain before quickly shifting his eyes away. He looked like his eyes would hurt if he took another look.

The corners of Wang Mingtao’s mouth twitched.

He was suddenly worried that he wasn’t his father’s biological son.

Just as they walked towards the van, a low-key and luxurious car drove over.

The car window rolled down halfway to reveal Li Yan’s face in sunglasses.

Wang Mingtao quickly said to Mr. Wang, “Dad, Sister Chu’s older brother is with us. His car is here.”

When Mr. Wang heard that it was Chu Luo’s brother, he immediately said, “Then let Little Chu’s brother come with us. It’s just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks anyway.”

“Dad, Brother Chu…”

Wang Mingtao wanted to say that Li Yan was the big boss of a company, so how could he possibly go to that small place with them?

Chu Luo was faster than him and said to Mr. Wang, “Okay, I’ll go talk to my brother.”

She then walked towards Li Yan’s car.

Chu Luo walked to the front passenger seat and said to Li Yan, “Uncle Wang is inviting us to eat together. Do you want to go?”

Li Yan still had his earpiece on and the European manager was currently reporting to him over the earpiece. He tapped his earpiece twice and the other party immediately shut up.

He said, “Sure, get in the car.”

“Wait, I’ll tell them.”

After saying that, Chu Luo turned around and said to Mr. Wang, “Uncle Wang, lead the way. We’ll follow.”

“Okay, okay, okay.” Mr. Wang immediately nodded happily and waved his hand. “Children, get in the car.”

The boys cheered and got into the car.

Chu Luo sat in Li Yan’s car and tilted her head to ask, “Aren’t you afraid of being recognized since you’re so high-profile?”

“No one will believe that I’ll drive myself.”

“…”

“What?”

Li Yan tilted his head to look at her. Chu Luo grinned at him and stopped talking. She took out the phone that she used in the empire and turned it on.

The moment she turned on her phone, she was almost stumped by the tide of missed calls and text messages.

Half of the calls were from Chu Zhengyang, some were from Wei Xueying, and some were from high school classmates and unknown numbers.

Chu Luo called Old Gao first.

The call was picked up quickly. Old Gao asked with a laugh, “Little Chu Luo, you came back from your trip to the US?”

Chu Luo smiled. “Yes, Teacher Gao… I brought back some specialties for you. I’ll send them to you when I get back.”

Old Gao’s voice became even more jolly. “Alright, alright, alright. Then Teacher will wait to receive the package. But I don’t want anything too valuable.”

Chu Luo said, “Hehe, Old Gao, what are you thinking about? I brought you some specialties from there and two books.”

Old Gao: “Pfft, cough, cough… Little Chu Luo, why did you buy me books?”

Chu Luo grinned. “Of course so I could show them to you. You’ll definitely have to thank me when you receive them.”

Old Gao: “…”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Old Gao’s voice immediately became serious. “Little Chu Luo, I seriously suspect that you’re seeking revenge.”

Chu Luo’s eyes narrowed from smiling. “Of course not. Teacher, you have to believe me. You will definitely thank me when the time comes.”

Then, as expected, Chu Luo was educated by Old Gao for more than ten minutes before the two of them hung up.

Li Yan glanced at her in the rearview mirror and saw that her eyes were filled with stars from her smile. His heart couldn’t help but feel warm.

When the car arrived near Wang Mingtao’s house, Chu Luo received a call from Chu Zhengyang.

It was obvious that Chu Zhengyang had found out about her return from the posts that those people had shared at the airport.

Looking at the caller ID, Chu Luo swiped to answer the call.

Chu Luo greeted, “Uncle.”

Chu Zhengyang’s tone was filled with suppressed anger, but his voice was a little choked up. “Luoluo, why haven’t you contacted Uncle for the past month and a half? Do you know how worried I was?”

Chu Luo replied with a question, “Didn’t I get someone to tell you that I was going to the US for a holiday?”

Chu Zhengyang took a few deep breaths before saying, “Even if you were going to the US for a holiday, didn’t you have time to call Uncle? Luoluo, are you still blaming Uncle? It’s Uncle’s fault, but…”

Chu Luo interrupted him. “Uncle, I’m already an adult. I can make my own decisions regarding anything. If you want to take someone in hand, just take Chu Ting in hand well.”

“I…”

“Also… previously, I only stayed at your house because I didn’t have the ability to do otherwise. If you mind it, you can calculate the child support fees you’d spend all these years.”

“Luoluo, what do you mean by that?”

“What I mean is that from now on, you’re just my father’s older brother. You don’t have to worry about me anymore.”

“You… you… Cough, cough… Why have you become like this?”

When Chu Luo heard this, she seemed to have heard the world’s greatest joke. She said, “In the past, Chu Luo was timid and weak. You forced her to be that way. Now, I suddenly feel that it’s time to live for myself.”

She then said, “If there’s no need for it in the future, please don’t call me again.”

Then she hung up.

Li Yan looked at Chu Luo, who was obviously unhappy with her lips pursed. A trace of anger also flashed across his eyes. Whoever dared to anger his baby, he would make them suffer.

The car followed Mr. Wang’s car into a neighborhood near Imperial University and finally stopped outside an apartment building.

After Mr. Wang got out of the car, he came over and said with a smile, “Little Chu, we’re here. Come down with your brother.”

Chu Luo nodded at him and turned to look at Li Yan. In the end, she thought for a while and magically conjured a mask for him. “Put on the mask.”

Li Yan took the mask and put it on.

After they got off the car, they walked upstairs together.

The district here was considered a middle-class district with an elevator.

As everyone walked towards the elevator, some of those people coming out of the elevator asked Chu Luo in surprise, “You’re Chu Luo who got first place in the country for the college entrance examination, right?”

Chu Luo nodded, and they stopped to praise her. None of them had any ill intentions.

However, when everyone arrived at Wang Mingtao’s house, it was already half an hour later.

After entering through the door, Mr. Wang specially explained, “Don’t mind them. Everyone here has children. They like kids who study well and are good-looking. They don’t have any ill intentions.”

Chu Luo didn’t mind.

The moment they entered, Mrs. Wang, who was cooking in the kitchen, welcomed them with a smile.

Wang Mingtao’s parents were around 45 years old. The two of them were obviously people who liked to smile and were warm towards others.

“Old Wang, you’ve finally brought the children back.”

“Hello, Auntie.”

“Good, good, good! Aiyo, this must be the Chu Luo that Little Tao was talking about. The young lady is really beautiful.

“And these young men look really energetic.”

She then looked at Li Yan. When Li Yan entered, he took off his sunglasses and mask. Mrs. Wang said, “I can tell at a glance that this young man is here to do something big.”

“Mommy, he’s Brother Chu, Sister Chu’s older brother.”

“Oh, oh, oh. They’re indeed a family. Their appearance and disposition are simply indescribable.”

Li Yan nodded at her.

“Everyone, go wash your hands and eat first. I just need to finish up the soup.”

The boys quickly said, “Auntie, you’ve worked hard.”

“It’s no trouble, no trouble at all. I’m already very happy that you guys came. My Little Tao used to be very naughty. Ever since he got to know you guys, it’s like he’s become a different person. I’ve always wanted to thank you guys. Our house is close to Imperial University. You’re welcome to come and play anytime in the future.”

The meal passed happily. In the meantime, the Wang parents showered Chu Luo with praises.

When Chu Luo and Li Yan returned, it was already more than two hours later.
