Chapter 477: Complaint
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The next morning, Chu Luo woke up and jogged with Li Yan in the residence.
When she ran to a training ground, Li Yan stopped and said to her, “Go run for a while first. I’ll go and spar with Qin Ming.”
Chu Luo nodded and continued running.
The Li residence was too big. As Chu Luo ran, she subconsciously used her Qinggong and quickly ran far away.
When she slowed down, she realized that there was a large shed in front.
A few servants were about to enter the door of one of the large sheds with baskets.
Chu Luo was curious and walked over.
When these people saw Chu Luo, they quickly stopped and greeted her respectfully, “Hello, Miss Chu.”
Chu Luo asked, “What’s planted here?”
A servant replied, “It’s strawberries.”
Hearing that, Chu Luo also wanted to eat strawberries, so she said, “Give me a basket. I’ll go pick some too.”
The servant quickly gave her a basket, but she still said, “Miss Chu, we can help you pluck it.”
“No need.”
Chu Luo took the basket and walked in.
The moment she walked in, the others stood there and didn’t dare to move.
Seeing that none of these people had come in, Chu Luo said to them, “You guys can go ahead and continue with what you’re doing. Don’t worry about me.”
After saying that, she specifically picked the big and good-looking strawberries and quickly filled up a basket. Just as she was about to walk out, she heard a raised voice from outside the greenhouse. “Are the strawberries Third Madam wants ready?”
Someone replied, “Not yet.”
That person was a little impatient. “Why didn’t you guys come in earlier to pluck them? Third Madam said that she’s going to make strawberry cake for Miss Qing Ning today. Miss Qing Ning will be going to school later.”
“Sorry, we’ll be done soon.”
“Then hurry up.”
Chu Luo walked out.
That person stood there like the owner and didn’t look at Chu Luo. Sensing that someone had come out, she ordered arrogantly, “Give me the strawberries you picked.”
Chu Luo said, “Why don’t you pick it yourself?”
“I… Chu Chu… Miss Chu.”
When that person turned around and saw that it was Chu Luo, she immediately lowered her head and stood there respectfully, not daring to speak.
Chu Luo glanced at her and said, “Since Third Madam wants it so urgently, as her servant, you should go pick it with everyone since you’re here. Otherwise, you’ll have to wait.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Miss Chu, I’ll go pick the strawberries immediately.”
As he spoke, he took a basket and strode in.
Chu Luo turned to look at that person and retracted her gaze. She asked the person standing by the door, “Is there water for me to wash the strawberries here?”
“Yes,” that person quickly said. “Miss Chu, I’ll help you wash it. The water is cold now. Don’t freeze your hand.”
Chu Luo’s hands were fair and tender. The servant didn’t dare to let her wash it.
Chu Luo didn’t object and handed her the basket.
The servant quickly washed the strawberries and brought them over. There was also a basin in the basket so that it wouldn’t leak.
Chu Luo took it and thanked her before leaving.
Not long after Chu Luo left, Third Madam’s servant walked out of the large shed.
She looked in the direction Chu Luo left and pursed her lips. She thought, ‘Isn’t a master afraid of being laughed at by others for coming here to pick strawberries personally?’
Chu Luo carried the basket and ate the strawberries as she walked. Only then did she realize that she had gone a little far.
She used her Qinggong and returned to the training ground.
At this moment, Li Yan and Qin Ming were standing at the side talking. Chu Luo glanced at the two of them but didn’t walk over. She thought for a while and walked towards a wooden chair with the basket.
She had just sat down when she heard the sound of a wheelchair rolling not far behind her.
Chu Luo turned around and saw Anya being pushed over in a wheelchair.
Anya also saw Chu Luo and quickly waved at her.
Chu Luo stood up and walked over. She looked at her and asked in confusion, “Why did you come out?”
Anya winked at her. “For a stroll.”
Chu Luo: “…”
Chu Luo sized up her legs again and asked her, “When exactly can you walk?”
“At least another week.”
Chu Luo looked at her speechlessly. “I’ll go back to the Imperial Sky Park today. Qin Ming will definitely follow me there. Do you plan to sit in the wheelchair when you return?”
When Anya heard this, she suddenly felt conflicted.
Chu Luo ignored her and turned back to the wooden chair to get the strawberry basket. As she ate, she walked back to Anya.
Anya looked at the strawberries in her basket and extended her hand. “Chu, give me two.”
Chu Luo handed her the basket.
Anya took two strawberries and ate them as she looked at Qin Ming, who was talking to Li Yan.
Chu Luo asked, “Have you set your mind on Qin Ming?”
“Mm,” Anya said. “Although this man is made of wood, he’s willing to be childish with me. If I don’t choose him, who should I choose?”
Chu Luo looked at her with bright eyes.
Anya looked into her eyes. “As a princess, no matter how much I’m pampered, I must abide by all the necessary etiquette. However, I don’t have to worry about these in front of Blockhead. I can flare up at him when I’m unhappy, and I can appear in front of him without any demeanor. Most importantly… I like him like this.”
Chu Luo suddenly remembered that she had said that she liked Qin Ming’s body and suddenly felt that it was the truth.
She didn’t say anything and ate a strawberry.
Li Yan and Qin Ming walked over.
Chu Luo handed the basket to Li Yan, who didn’t take the strawberries but held the basket for her.
“Go back and eat. I’ll send you to school after you’re done.”
Chu Luo nodded and said to him, “We’ll stay at Imperial Sky Park tonight.”
“Okay.”
Anya also tilted her head and said to Qin Ming, “I’ll stay over there today.”
Qin Ming looked at her expressionlessly.
Anya was baffled.
Qin Ming said, “I’ll leave for two to three days.”
Anya: “…”
…
The moment Chu Luo’s car stopped by the Imperial University’s school gate, many people looked over.
Everyone was excited when she alighted.
“I haven’t seen Chu Luo in a long time. She seems to have become prettier.”
“Did you guys see the live broadcast of Chu Luo’s grades yesterday? She’s too awesome.”
“I’ve seen it. To be able to score full marks in the level eight exam for five foreign languages at once and be graded by a few famous professors internationally, she’s the first person in history and future.”
“Chu Luo has really made Imperial University proud. Let’s see which other famous foreign school dares to use their top students to compete with us.”
“Especially what Chu Luo said to those flamers at the end. It’s too satisfying.”
“That’s right. Chu Luo is so outstanding. I have to work even harder.”
“Me too.”
…
Roundy had been staying with Wang Mingtao for this period of time. After Chu Luo alighted, she waited for two minutes before seeing Wang Mingtao running over while panting behind Roundy.
“Sister… Sister Chu, I’m here.”
“Mistress, I miss you so much!”
Chu Luo raised her hand and rubbed Roundy’s big head. She looked at Wang Mingtao, who was panting heavily with his hands on his knees, and said with disdain, “It only takes about ten minutes to get from your house to the east gate of Imperial University. You only ran for a bit and you’re already like this. Isn’t it embarrassing?”
“I… ha…” Wang Mingtao finally managed to catch his breath after a while. He complained about Roundy,” Sister Chu, it’s not my fault. It originally took more than ten minutes from my house, but Roundy insisted on dragging me along…”
He looked at his watch and widened his eyes. “I only used seven minutes!”
Roundy was displeased. He complained about Wang Mingtao in his child-like voice, sounding even more aggrieved than the latter.
“Mistress,?Peach1?woke up at seven o’clock and only slept after midnight. Most importantly, he turned me off while you were away. Sob sob sob…”
Chu Luo looked at Wang Mingtao with a wooden face.
Wang Mingtao said guiltily, “My father has taken on a big business order these past two days. My heart hurts that he only sleeps for two to three hours every night, so I’ve been helping him until midnight after school every day.”
“Whose order did Uncle Wang take on?”
“It’s the merchants from the capital. Their family is getting married on Thursday. He’s been working hard to decorate the villa during this period of time.
“Sister Chu, you have no idea. The Shang family ordered 99,999 roses on the day of the wedding. Also, their family replaced the flowers in the entire garden.”
Chu Luo thought for a while. The Shang family was indeed a large family, one level higher than the Wei family.
However, she was a little curious about which family the Shang family was attached to.
Chu Luo planned to text Li Yan later to ask him.
The two of them led Roundy towards the school gate. Chu Luo asked, “Since your family is so busy, why didn’t Uncle Wang hire more temporary workers to help?”
“He did. We hired more than ten hour workers. Coupled with our workers, there are a total of 27 to 28 people, but it’s still not enough. Especially since we’re going to cut the roses tomorrow, we definitely won’t have enough people.”
“Then hire more.”
“It’s not easy to hire them. Many people heard that they have to go to the suburbs at half-past four every morning, so they quit.”
Chu Luo thought for a while and said, “They only don’t want to go because the money isn’t tempting enough. Get Uncle Wang to raise the wages.”
Wang Mingtao nodded. “Alright, I’ll tell Dad when I get back.”
Chu Luo thought for a while more. A glint flashed across her eyes and she suddenly had an idea. “Forget it, you better not let Uncle Wang increase the wages. I’ll help you find a batch of people.”
“Who?”
“You’ll know when the time comes.”
