Chapter 485: A Loss Is a Loss; If You’re Unconvinced, Hold Back

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Not for you.”

“Why?”

“It’s your fault for making a bet with me. The others are just collateral… Do you think that after making a bet and losing, you only need to admit that you lost and everything will be fine?”

“How can you be like this!” Hank was indignant.

“A loss is a loss. If you’re not convinced, we’ll talk after you win against me next time.”

After Chu Luo finished speaking with a domineering expression, she didn’t even look at his sulky and angry expression. She turned to Nangong Yi and said, “You guys leave first. When the time comes, someone will call you from the city. Get the chauffeur to follow the person who is picking you up to the place where we eat hotpot tonight.”

Nangong Yi had never thought of pleading on behalf of Hank, nor had anyone else.

“Junior, what about you?”

“I’ll help the girls complete the unfinished mission.”

Nangong Yi looked at Chu Luo in surprise.

Chu Luo tilted her head at the same time to look at him and gave him a look.

Nangong Yi subconsciously turned to the girls who hadn’t completed their mission. When those girls heard Chu Luo’s words, they looked ashamed and touched.

He suddenly felt that Junior’s move was brilliant. She had punished Hank and, at the same time, touched everyone else by doing this.

As soon as Nangong Yi brought everyone away, Chu Luo said to the Wang father and son, who were about to speak, “Uncle Wang, Taozi, take all the workers away. I’ll help you fix the remaining flowers.”

The father and son looked at her in surprise.

Wang Mingtao asked in a daze, “Sister Chu, are you going to do it alone?”

Daddy Wang slapped Wang Mingtao. “Aren’t you asking nonsense?”

After saying that, he said to Chu Luo kindly, “Little Chu, don’t you have a gathering tonight? If you and Taozi chase after them now, you guys can still catch up to everyone.”

Wang Mingtao nodded in agreement.

Chu Luo pursed her lips and snapped her fingers at the two of them without saying anything.

In the next moment, the Wang father and son nodded at her at the same time. The two of them turned around and took all the workers away.

Chu Luo walked to the rose garden and quickly used magic. In less than ten minutes, she finished cutting the flowers and put a protective film on them before placing the flowers in the nutritional fluid.

When she walked out of the greenhouse, she snapped her fingers and the magic was removed.

In less than two minutes, Daddy Wang and Wang Mingtao ran over.

The two of them looked at Chu Luo in confusion.

Daddy Wang asked, “Little Chu, what happened just now? Why do I remember letting all the workers go!”

Wang Mingtao widened his eyes. “I remember we even went to eat.”

The father-and-son duo looked at each other in confusion.

Why would they do such a thing?

Then, the two of them revealed similar distress.

“Dad, what should we do now? If you let all the workers go, we won’t be able to fulfill the client’s request without any workers. If the client pursues the matter, won’t our family be finished?”

After saying that, Wang Mingtao shivered.

Daddy Wang didn’t look any better. He quickly took out his phone to call the workers back.

“Uncle Wang, Taozi.”

Chu Luo stopped them and pointed at the row of houses behind her. “Go in and take a look first.”

The two of them subconsciously strode in.

When Chu Luo followed them in, the father-and-son duo stood there in a daze and looked at the various fresh flowers.

Their faces were filled with disbelief and disbelief.

Chu Luo said, “This is the amount you want. Uncle Wang, you can get someone to put it away and inform the wedding company to go over to decorate the Shang residence in advance.”

Daddy Wang suddenly came back to his senses and turned to look at Chu Luo. He asked in a daze, “Little Chu, what exactly is going on?”

Chu Luo spouted nonsense in all seriousness. “I don’t know either. Just now, I went to another flower shed and cut a few flowers that I liked. This is what it looked like when I came in.”

After saying that, she pointed at the flowers that she had cut and placed at the side. “I was about to ask you guys to help me wrap them so that I can give them away later?”

Daddy Wang subconsciously pushed Wang Mingtao. “Taozi, help Little Chu wrap the flowers.”

Wang Mingtao staggered before coming back to his senses. He walked over.

Daddy Wang lowered his voice and asked, “Little Chu, tell me honestly, did you do something?”

Chu Luo blinked at him. “What did I do?”

Daddy Wang thought for a while. “Your Roundy is so powerful. I heard from Taozi that during your last competition with your classmates, you could make a multi-functioning robot in a few hours. Did you get your robot to help me do all this?”

Chu Luo didn’t expect Daddy Wang to think that, but she smiled and didn’t say anything.

Daddy Wang was certain that this was it. He gave Chu Luo a thumbs up. “Little Chu, you’re amazing.”

At this moment, Wang Mingtao took the flowers over.

Daddy Wang threw the key to him. “Go meet the other students first. Drive slowly.”

“Got it, Dad.”

Wang Mingtao took the key and walked out with Chu Luo.

Daddy Wang watched as the two of them left and sighed. “Kid, the best thing you did was to acknowledge such an incredible sister… If only Little Chu was my daughter.”

When Chu Luo and Wang Mingtao walked to the car, Wang Mingtao subconsciously tightened his grip on the key. He pressed his palms together and said in a pleading tone, “Sister Chu, let me drive. I’m begging you.”

Chu Luo: “…”

Chu Luo looked at Wang Mingtao for a few seconds before walking to the front passenger seat door and getting in. She placed the flowers in her hand in the back seat and looked at Wang Mingtao, who was still standing there with a silly smile. She said, “Do you think you can drive this car away just by standing there?”

“Oh, oh, oh.” Wang Mingtao quickly opened the car door and got into the driver’s seat before driving out.

Chu Luo took out her phone and texted Li Yan.

Chu Luo: “Yan, have you knocked off?”

Li Yan: “I’m in a meeting. I should be able to get off work in more than three hours. You should be done eating by then. I’ll pick you up.”

Chu Luo replied, “Okay.”

Chu Luo glanced at the flowers behind her and continued texting with a smile. “I’ll give you a present when you pick me up.”

Li Yan: “Okay.”

Chu Luo looked at the word ‘okay’ and couldn’t help but smile.

On the other side, in the conference room on the top floor of Blazing Glory’s headquarters.

Every time the meeting started, the conference room would become especially serious.

When a message alert broke this seriousness, everyone subconsciously trembled. They quietly checked their phones, afraid that they had forgotten to turn on the silent mode.

A few seconds later, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. They wondered who was so bold as to not turn on silent mode when the CEO was personally presiding over the meeting. Had they been living a good life for too long and wanted to be sent to Africa to develop their career?

At this moment, their CEO took out his phone and glanced at the screen. The corners of his lips curled up.

Everyone perked up.

They immediately guessed who had sent the CEO a message.

After sending the message, Li Yan said, “The meeting continues.”

Everyone immediately put away all their thoughts and focused on the meeting.

…

Chu Luo and the others happened to catch up to the main group at the expressway into the city.

The car Li Yan had sent to lead the way drove behind.

Nangong Yi quickly discovered their car and sent her a message.

Nangong Yi: “Junior, you finished cutting the flowers so quickly?”

Chu Luo replied, “Mm.”

Nangong Yi: “Are you the owner of Phoenix Corporation’s cosmetics company?”

Chu Luo was a little surprised that Nangong Yi would guess at once, but she didn’t answer. Instead, she asked, “Why are you asking this?”

Nangong Yi: “With your medical skills, I think it’s not difficult for you to concoct good skincare products.”

Chu Luo: “…”

Nangong Yi: “Am I wrong?”

Chu Luo: “Wrong.”

Nangong Yi: “Alright, even if it’s not your company, it must be someone you know.”

Chu Luo: “Why didn’t you say that it’s a company under Blazing Glory?”

Nangong Yi: “If it’s a company under Blazing Glory, the Blazing Glory logo will be on the cosmetics.”

Chu Luo actually had nothing to say about Nangong Yi’s analysis.

She decided to simply stop texting him. However, when she looked up, she saw a car charging towards their car in the rearview mirror.

“Taozi, dodge. The brakes of the car behind should be broken.”

Wang Mingtao also discovered the car. He was stunned and stepped on the accelerator.

The car sped out instantly. Moreover, there was a car in front.

Their car was about to hit the car in front.

When the group on the bus saw this, the girls screamed in fear.

Many of the boys stood up and asked the driver to stop the car.

Creak…

Bang!

When the car stopped in the safety path, Wang Mingtao took a while to recover from his daze.

He slowly turned to look at Chu Luo, who had somehow swapped seats with him and was now sitting in the driver’s seat. He opened his mouth. After a few seconds, he asked with lingering fears, “Sister Chu, are we safe?”

“Mm.”

After Chu Luo finished speaking, she tilted her head and looked at the car that had been knocked into the protective barrier by her. It was in a much worse state than theirs. She frowned and said to Wang Mingtao, “Go down and see if you know the people in that car. It’s impossible for their car brakes to malfunction right after getting off the expressway. There must be something fishy.”

Wang Mingtao’s expression darkened. He clenched his fists tightly. “Sister Chu, you mean that the person in that car deliberately bumped into us?”

“It’s possible.” Chu Luo could feel the malice of the person in that car.

When Wang Mingtao heard this, he opened the car door and gritted his teeth as he alighted.. He strode towards the car angrily.
