Chu Luo didn’t look at him. She walked out to take her clothes and ran back to the bathroom.

When she came out of the bathroom, Li Yan had already returned to his guest room.

Chu Luo looked at the bed and blushed unconsciously. She quickly retracted her gaze and walked towards the door.

When she opened the door, she saw that Li Yan had already changed his clothes and was standing by the window, making a call.

The morning light shone on him, making him look even more noble and tall.

The moment Li Yan heard the door open, he ended the call and turned around.

Their eyes met.

Li Yan’s gaze was deep and intense.

Chu Luo actually lowered her eyes in embarrassment and asked directly, “Why aren’t you leaving?”

Li Yan walked over from the window and wrapped his arm around her waist.

With a tense face, Chu Luo shoved him. “How can you be hugging me in broad daylight?!”

Li Yan smiled. “It’s only natural for a husband to hug his wife.”

Chu Luo struggled out of his arms and walked towards the computer. As she walked, she said, “Who’s your wife? Have I agreed to marry you? You’re only mine right now!”

When Li Yan heard this, his smile widened. He followed her over. “Okay, I’m yours.”

As for whether they were husband and wife, what mattered was that the empire’s laws acknowledged it.

Chu Luo sat down, turned on her computer, and logged into the game invisible.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she went online, a friend sent her a message.

It was [Linebarrel].

[Linebarrel]: “You’re competing with [Y] at ten o’clock today. Why did you log into the game so early?”

Chu Luo was about to type when an arm reached over to block her.

Chu Luo turned to look at Li Yan. “What are you doing?”

A trace of coldness had appeared in Li Yan’s eyes. “Are you very close with him?”

“Not very close.” After Chu Luo finished speaking, she asked again, “What exactly do you want?”

“It’s still early. Do you want to go for your morning exercise?”

With that, he pulled her up from the chair.

Chu Luo was pulled towards the door. She said in a displeased tone, “I haven’t replied to [Linebarrel].”

“You guys aren’t close anyway. You can just reply to him later.”

The two of them walked to the door. Li Yan opened the door and pulled her along.

Chu Luo thought about it and didn’t say anything else. She followed Li Yan.

“Where are we going to exercise?”

“The rooftop.”

Chu Luo suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to tell Neeson last night that she wasn’t going over. She said in frustration, “I actually forgot to tell Neeson that I wasn’t going over last night. Did he wait for me for a long time?”

“The butler would have handled this matter.”

The two of them walked through a safe passageway.

The floor where Chu Luo and Li Yan lived was already on the top few floors. The two of them didn’t have to climb for long to reach the rooftop.

There were no longer any signs of fighting on the rooftop. The two of them stood in the spacious open space and started practicing.

Li Yan’s strength and explosive power were both astonishing. But Chu Luo won in terms of nimbleness and dexterity.

Half an hour later, the two of them stopped. Chu Luo said in surprise, “Your martial arts have improved again.”

She then asked, “When did you start practicing martial arts?”

“When I was very young.”

“Eh?” Chu Luo was a little curious. “Since you began practicing martial arts so early, why did your legs still get injured?”

“Because I was betrayed by my family.”

Li Yan looked into the distance with a calm expression. His tone was like he was narrating someone else’s story.

“The Li family is a hundred-year-old family. Our ancestors have been wealthy families for several generations. However, by my father’s generation, no one had the ability to take over the family business. Before Grandfather died, he specified that I should take over after I became an adult.

“My so-called relatives don’t show it on the surface, but they’ve secretly planned for several years. When I became an adult, they gave me a huge gift.”

“What gift?” After Chu Luo asked, she immediately guessed. “They cast a curse on you?”

“That’s right… After they cursed me, they even beat me until I was left with my last breath. In the end, they threw me into the mountain to fend for myself.”

“The same place we went to last time?”

“Mm.”

Chu Luo looked at him sympathetically. No wonder his personality was so cold. If it had been anyone else, they might have died after being treated like this by their own relatives. It was already a miracle that he was still alive.

Li Yan seemed to have read her mind and said, “An old man saved me back then.”

In other words, he couldn’t have survived without that old man.

Chu Luo nodded and said, “You and I share the same fate.”

Li Yan glanced at her. “Not you. You occupied this body.”

Chu Luo wasn’t satisfied. “This body was going to jump off a building to die anyway. Right now, I’m not at all alike to her.”

Li Yan recalled her fierce appearance and nodded. He deliberately said with a serious expression, “Indeed, you were very ugly back then.”

Chu Luo: “…”

“But you’re very beautiful now.”

Chu Luo suddenly suppressed the smile on her face and lifted her chin confidently. “Of course. I’m a natural beauty.”

When Li Yan heard this, he couldn’t help but smile. He pulled her into his arms and lowered his head to peck her forehead.

“What are you doing?”

Chu Luo quickly pushed him away and lectured him with a tense face, “Don’t kiss me outside.”

After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the rooftop door. As she walked, she said, “Otherwise, I won’t be polite to you.”

Li Yan followed her and deliberately asked, “How do you want to be impolite to me? Are you going to do the same thing back to me?”

“Dream on!”

After saying that, Chu Luo stepped through the threshold.

When the two of them arrived downstairs, they had just turned into the corridor when they saw Wang Mingtao and the others walking towards her guest room with their arms around each other’s shoulders. They were chatting merrily.

When the five guys saw the two of them walking over, they were a little surprised.

Wang Mingtao asked, “Brother Chu, Sister Chu, did you guys go out?”

Chu Luo nodded.

The two of them walked over. Chu Luo opened the door and the seven of them walked in one after another.

As soon as Wang Mingtao saw that Chu Luo’s computer was on, he walked over with large strides. “Sister Chu, you logged into the game early in the morning. [Linebarrel] sent you a few messages.”

He then turned to look at Chu Luo. “Sister Chu, [Linebarrel] asked you about your plans for the next two days. He asked us to visit the technology park in Silicon Valley.”

Chu Luo was about to speak when Li Yan spoke first. “Tell him that Luoluo isn’t free.”

Wang Mingtao could feel the coldness emanating from Li Yan and was shocked. He quickly responded and replied.

At this moment, the housekeeper came in to deliver breakfast.

After the group had eaten, Li Yan took a call and left after informing Chu Luo.

After Li Yan left, Wang Mingtao said to Chu Luo with a grin, “Sister Chu, did Brother Chu misunderstand you and [Linebarrel]?”

Chu Luo was baffled. “Misunderstand what?”

“He misunderstood that [Linebarrel] wants to court you.”

“…”

“To be honest.” While Chu Luo was silent, Xie Minghai rubbed his chin and said, “If I were Brother Chu, I would be worried that the wild men outside would kidnap such a beautiful and adorable younger sister.”

The other boys nodded at the same time. Although they weren’t Chu Luo’s brothers, they were her senior brothers. They were also a little worried that the wild men outside would abduct such a cute and beautiful junior.

The boys suddenly started preaching to Chu Luo in unison.

Xie Minghai said, “Junior, if those men outside ask you out, they must be wooing you. You mustn’t agree.”

Yu Lei: “If you really want to find a boyfriend, you have to find someone whose background is known. You can’t judge a book by its cover. Who knows what kind of evil intentions the wild men outside have?”

Tang Zhiyun said, “You are still young. Studying is the most important thing right now. After you graduate, you can choose any outstanding man you want.”

Wang Mingtao: “Sister Chu, rather than falling in love with a man, why don’t you team up with me to PK a few times? It feels so good to be king in the game.”

Xu Qingfeng said, “They’re right.”

Chu Luo looked speechlessly at the group of guys who sounded like her mother. After they finished speaking, she said, “You’re thinking too much.”

After saying that, she sat in front of her computer and logged into the betting platform. She realized that the winnings had been split up.

Looking at the amount distributed, she smiled in satisfaction.

“Go and take a look at how much money you’ve received. It’s possible that the money from the bet will be in your account within the next two days.”

“Really?”

The boys were immediately excited. They hurriedly ran to their seats and quickly logged into the platform to check.

For a long while after that, she heard the boys cheering excitedly.

“Wow! I actually got so much! I’m rich, I’m rich!”

“I’m guessing that my father will definitely be over the moon if he finds out about this!”

“Hehe…”

“Haha…”

…

Chu Luo glanced at them and quickly planned where to use the money after the money was split up.

Soon, it was 9:55.

Chu Luo appeared outside the PK arena.

It was only then that she realized that the place was already packed to the brim. There were even dozens of messages flooding the news channel every second.

Chu Luo blocked all messages and waited for [Y] to appear.

When [Y] appeared in the PK arena, the entire gaming platform fell silent.

[Bai Ling]: “You’re here.”

[Y]: “Yeah.”

System Notification:

‘[Bai Ling] has challenged [Y] to a PK. Accept or Decline.’

After [Y] clicked on Accept, the two of them were sent to the PK arena.

The entire world channel exploded.

“I didn’t even dare to imagine a PK between [Bai Ling] and [Y].”

“[Bai Ling] is indeed arrogant. I wonder if she will continue to be arrogant after being defeated by [Y].”

“It’s an incredible thing to be able to PK with [Y]. Regardless of whether she can win or not, she will forever be my goddess.”

“Yes, I support you, [Bai Ling]!”
