The Wife of the Wealthy Family Is Fierce and Cute.

Chapter 213: I Heard That You and My Subordinate Are in Love?

Chu Luo and that person turned to look at the same time at the girl walking over.

The girl was thin and tall. She had a heroic appearance and short hair. Her temperament was especially valiant.

That person looked at the person walking over and threatened in a low voice, “I advise you not to be a busybody. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude to you.”

“Oh? Then I’ll see how you’re going to treat me rudely.”

After the girl finished speaking, she strode over and said to Chu Luo, “Stand aside.”

Chu Luo obediently walked to the side.

“Stop right there!” that person shouted, intending to catch Chu Luo.

The girl quickened her pace and attacked that person.

The two of them started fighting.

Chu Luo stood at the side and looked with interest at the two people fighting. She wondered if they were in cahoots or if they had their own masters.

Both of them had good skills. After dozens of moves, there was still no winner.

Chu Luo looked at them and said to the girl, “Classmate, help me snatch the recording pen from his hand.”

The moment she opened her mouth, that man began to walk towards her.

The girl continued to block him. As she did so, she shouted, “Hurry up and leave.”

“Eh… Okay!”

Chu Luo turned around and ran away without looking back.

After walking out of their sight, she stopped and stood under a tree to look over.

The two of them were still fighting fiercely.

At this moment, the girl slapped the man.

The man retreated two steps back due to the impact of the slap. In a rage, he stabbed at her fiercely with the knife in his hand.

The girl dodged and attacked, but in the end, her left forearm was still stabbed.

When Chu Luo saw this, she lowered her eyes and thought for a while. As she walked back, she took out her phone and turned it on. She called the school’s security guard and hid her name and number before sending a message.

“On the west side of Crescent Lake, someone is fighting near the pavilion. Someone is about to die.”

After sending the message, she strode towards her place.

The night passed.

The next morning, Chu Luo went out for a run with a mask on. She had just run to a flower bed when she saw the girl from last night sitting on a wooden chair with a bandaged hand and breakfast in the other hand.

Chu Luo walked over and took off her earpiece. When the girl looked over, Chu Luo asked, “Are you the person who helped me last night?”

The girl retracted her gaze and said indifferently, “You got the wrong person.”

Chu Luo also had an aloof expression. “Sorry.”

After saying that, she stuffed her earpiece back in and prepared to continue jogging.

“Hey!”

The girl’s cold and displeased voice came from behind. “Can’t you even recognize who helped you?”

Chu Luo’s lips curled up. Wasn’t she just pretending? Let’s see who could pretend better.

She turned around and said seriously, “I thought you wanted to do good deeds without leaving a name. In that case, in order to express my gratitude, I would definitely play along with you.”

After saying that, she walked up to her and went straight to the point. “Did you get the recording pen?”

The girl stopped talking. There was a flash of displeasure in her eyes.

“Looks like you didn’t get it.”

Chu Luo looked disappointed. Her gaze turned to her left arm and she said something that made the girl gnash her teeth. “I thought you were powerful. I didn’t expect you to get injured and even then fail to snatch the recording pen back.”

After saying that, she searched her pocket but didn’t find anything. She said, “I still have to take responsibility for your injury, but I didn’t bring money with me. Why don’t you wait here? I’ll go back and get the money for you.”

The girl’s expression darkened. “I only helped you because I couldn’t stand it. I didn’t do it for money.”

“Eh? So there are people in this world who help for free.”

Chu Luo deliberately portrayed her greediness vividly. When she saw the disdain in the woman’s eyes, the smile on her face widened. “Since you don’t want anything, I’ll leave.”

After taking two steps, she seemed to have remembered something. She stopped and turned around to instruct her, “Don’t tell anyone that I didn’t go to military training. It wasn’t easy for me to hide here and enjoy myself through my connections. If you tell anyone, I won’t let you off.”

After saying that, she put on her earpiece and ran away.

The expression of the girl sitting there was extremely interesting. She took out her phone and dialed a number. There was a great deal of dissatisfaction in her voice. “You want me to be friends with a bimbo?”

The other party reminded her, “Don’t forget that she’s this year’s college entrance examination top scholar. There’s also those videos.”

The girl recalled that and her expression turned ugly.

The other party said, “You might have been tricked by her.”

The girl’s countenance darkened and she hung up the phone angrily. She stood up and kicked the chair beside her before walking forward.

A day passed quickly.

When Chu Luo returned to her dormitory building at ten o’clock in the evening, she saw the girl waiting with her back against the wall.

As Chu Luo approached, the girl sized her up and took out the recording pen from her pocket. She said coldly, “This is the recording pen you wanted.”

Chu Luo looked at her and asked warily, “Did you hear the content inside?”

The girl said in an annoyed tone, “I’m not interested in the content inside.”

Relieved, Chu Luo took the recording pen, thanked her, and turned to open the door.

She suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to take her keys again. However, with outsiders around, she still took out a key from her pocket and opened the door.

After opening the door, she turned around. She had no intention of inviting the girl in to have a seat. Instead, she asked casually, “It was so late last night. Why were you still by the lake?”

The girl looked at her and said calmly, “My learning efficiency at night is better than during the day. I especially like to think about the concepts while taking a stroll.”

Chu Luo nodded and accepted her explanation. She said, “Then take your time to study. My studying efficiency isn’t good at night, so I plan to go to bed. Goodbye.”

After saying that, she walked in and closed the door.

The girl standing outside the door: “…”

After Chu Luo closed the door, she walked into the bedroom with the recording pen.

She turned on her phone and received a video call from Li Yan.

Chu Luo clicked on the video. The man opposite her was sitting behind his desk, his aura strong.

At this moment, he was looking at her with his deep eyes. The corners of his lips curled up. “I heard that you and my subordinate are in love?”

Chu Luo blinked. “That’s right. Are you angry?”

The lines on Li Yan’s face instantly softened. He held the recording pen in his hand and said, “The Qin family gave this to me.”

Chu Luo also showed him the recording pen in her hand. “A girl gave this to me.”

She then told him about last night.

“I’ll get someone to investigate who that woman is.” Li Yan quickly exuded a strong murderous aura.

“Don’t be in a hurry to touch them. I’m a little bored and want to play with them.”

The corners of Li Yan’s lips curled up. “Sure, but you have to video call me at least half an hour every morning and night from now on.”

Chu Luo: “…”

Li Yan leaned forward slightly and asked in a bewitching voice, “Luoluo, did you miss me?”

Chu Luo nodded subconsciously. “Yes.”

Li Yan smiled.

Then, the two of them talked for a while before hanging up.

Sure enough, the girl didn’t appear in front of Chu Luo for the next few days, but someone followed her every morning and night.

Chu Luo didn’t mind and pretended not to know anything.

After a few days, the research team had made great progress in the improvement of the gaming capsule, but at the same time, they had reached a bottleneck.

“The gaming capsule needs to connect to a person’s brain. It’s equivalent to letting a person enter the game through mental strength. Everyone’s mental strength is different. We’ve failed a few experiments in Germany,” said a technician.

The other person was a little disheartened. “I think we still can’t get past this hurdle.”

Someone standing beside Chu Luo suddenly asked her, “Chu Luo, do you have an idea?”

Chu Luo retracted her gaze from those data and said, “Don’t you think that human mental strength is also related to medical science?”

As soon as Chu Luo finished speaking, the others fell into deep thought.

After a while, Professor Wu said, “Mental strength is equivalent to the cerebral nerves. It’s indeed related to medical science. In that case, shouldn’t we go in a different direction?”

“That’s right. In the past, we only thought about connecting brainwaves, but we didn’t understand why we kept failing. That is, we didn’t think of what medium was needed to stimulate the cerebral nerves.”

“If we can find a balanced stimulating nerve point, will this problem be resolved?”

Everyone became more and more excited as they spoke.

After a moment of excitement, Professor Wu finally calmed down. “Since it’s related to medicine, someone who knows medicine has to be brought in to continue, but…

“Someone who has medical knowledge and can also combine it with physics and programming knowledge—we need to find someone who is proficient in these areas to try it out. But who knows so much?”

When everyone heard this, they froze.

“I think I can try.”

Chu Luo suddenly spoke, and everyone subconsciously looked at her.

Chu Luo walked to the gaming capsule and said, “I have an idea. If we put some drug that stimulates the central nervous system of the brain at the spot of the gaming capsule where the head is positioned, making the smell of the drug stimulate one’s mental strength, will this problem be resolved?”

Everyone fell into deep thought.

After a while, someone asked, “Will there be side effects?”

Chu Luo curled her lips. “Then use a drug with no side effects that can even be beneficial to the human brain. That way, everyone can use it when the time comes.”

Everyone thought about Chu Luo’s words. If what she said became reality, the gaming capsule developed by the Blazing Glory Gaming Corporation would not only be machines used to play games, but they would also be able to stimulate the human brain. This would simply be a major breakthrough in the development of humans.

Ba-dump! Ba-dump! Ba-dump!

Everyone’s hearts started pounding uncontrollably.

Professor Wu walked up to Chu Luo, raised his hand that was trembling due to his excitement, and patted her shoulder. “Little Chu, your suggestion is very good.”

After saying that, he said to the others, “We can ask the higher-ups about this matter.”

“What are you waiting for? Go ask for permission immediately.”

“If Chu’s suggestion is feasible, we will really solve the biggest problem of the gaming capsule.”

“If we really managed to achieve that, anyone can go online in the future. This can even stimulate one’s brain.”

“If we really managed to achieve that, we will be the greatest contributors to mankind’s progress.”

…

Chu Luo looked at everyone who was getting more and more excited as they spoke and didn’t say anything else.

They immediately took action. They went to the seminar room and reported this matter to their superiors via video call.

Chu Luo didn’t go. Instead, she continued to stand by the gaming capsule and look at the rolling data.

After these days, she had memorized all the data and had recorded seven to eight notebooks’ worth of notes.

The others were in the seminar room for nearly half an hour and still hadn’t come out.

Chu Luo simply took out all her notes and looked through them again.

After a while, Professor Wu came out and said to Chu Luo, “Little Chu, we have already connected to the headquarters of the Blazing Glory Corporation. The chairman would like to hear your suggestion personally.”

Chu Luo paused for a moment before nodding. She put away her notebook before following him to the seminar room.

The seminar room was actually a conference room. Opposite the conference room was a large display screen.

At this moment, the display was showing Li Yan, who was sitting upright and exuding a noble and cold aura. Beside him sat a large group of Blazing Glory’s higher-ups.

When Chu Luo walked in, she realized that the atmosphere was very serious and subconsciously looked up at Li Yan.

When Li Yan saw her, the tense and cold lines on his face subconsciously relaxed. The group of people who initially felt stifled suddenly felt like the air was flowing much more freely.

Li Yan said with a strong aura, “I’ve already heard Miss Chu’s suggestion just now, but I want to hear your exact thoughts.”

Chu Luo nodded and started to speak her mind.

The moment Chu Luo opened her mouth, everyone fell silent. The group of people sitting on Li Yan’s side, some of whom were from the upper echelons of Blazing Glory, quickly typed on their computers. Everyone else listened attentively.

Ten minutes later, Chu Luo finished speaking.

Li Yan didn’t speak immediately.

The others couldn’t conceal the excitement on their faces.

After nearly half a minute, Li Yan finally said, “I’ll leave this matter to Miss Chu. I’ll transfer a team to assist Miss Chu and transfer five billion yuan as the initial research and development funds. I wonder if Miss Chu has the confidence to take on this project?”

Chu Luo nodded confidently. “Yes.”

Li Yan: “Very good.”

After saying this, he said to everyone, “Everyone, get out. I have something to discuss with Miss Chu alone.”
