Chu Luo hung up the phone. Professor Chen happened to look up and said with a smile, “Chu Luo, CEO Li is here to pick you up, right? Then you should pack up and go back first.”

Chu Luo nodded at him and started packing.

When she finished packing and walked to the door, she saw snow falling. Moreover, just as Nangong Yi had told her before, the Yin aura here was indeed much heavier than elsewhere.

Chu Luo turned around and said to the busy professors and teachers, “Professor, teachers, it’s snowing. Why don’t you guys get off work too?”

They looked up from their work and glanced outside. Professor Chen said, “I was wondering why it was even colder than usual tonight. It’s snowing.”

He turned to look at the others. “Why don’t we stop here tonight?”

The others also felt that it was indeed a little cold. Even if the heater was turned on in the room, it was useless.

At that moment, a lamp went out.

One of the teachers trembled and said in a tense voice, “This batch of antiques is really strange. To think…”

“Little Fang, there are some things that can’t be said.”

“Ah, okay, I’ll stop talking.”

Chu Luo looked at the few people who were busy packing their things and stood there without leaving.

After packing up, everyone walked out.

It wasn’t until they walked out of the Archaeology Department’s backyard and arrived at the front yard that Professor Fang heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Hah… The temperature here is finally normal.”

Chu Luo looked at him and asked, “I heard that those ancient items were found in an ancient sea tomb. Do you professors and teachers know who that ancient tomb belongs to?”

“I’m not sure,” Professor Zhang said. “What the archeological team took out from the ancient items, they were basically all damaged. Moreover, the craftsmanship of these ancient items doesn’t seem to be from the history of the empire.”

“Wasn’t it found in the empire’s territory?”

“Yes, that’s why everyone is very curious about this ancient tomb. It’s possible that it’s like that legendary ancient tomb that hasn’t been recorded in history.”

Chu Luo nodded and asked, “Was that ancient tomb raided by tomb raiders?”

“Yes. Not only have they been raided, but many things inside have also been destroyed. Actually, besides these damaged ancient items, there’s nothing valuable inside. Moreover, it’s an ancient sea tomb. When the tomb raiders entered, they let the seawater in. Many things have been oxidized to the point where they can’t be moved easily.”

They talked to Chu Luo about the ancient sea tomb.

“Building an ancient tomb in the sea is an extremely difficult thing to do. The ancient people’s wisdom is really endless. Once the ancient tomb is built, it can’t be moved anymore. Once it moves, the seawater will pour in. Once the seawater enters, many grave goods will be oxidized or other chemical reactions will occur.”

“Most importantly, as long as an ancient tomb is built in the sea, the magnetic field of the surrounding sea region will be different. It’s very easy for mishaps to happen. On the ancient tomb, there are various corpses everywhere. This way, the Yin aura will invade the ancient tomb and intensify the Yin aura of the buried items in the ancient tomb.”

Chu Luo had sensed those ancient items the moment she went to the repair room. Actually, besides the heavy Yin aura, there was nothing else.

She only nodded.

As they spoke, they walked to the door of the Archeology Department.

Professor Chen asked Chu Luo, “Little Chu, which gate are you going out from?”

This place was close to the west gate, but Chu Luo usually went out via the east gate.

Chu Luo looked at her phone and said, “The west gate. My boyfriend will come and pick me up soon.”

“Let’s send you to the west gate.”

“No need, no need. My boyfriend will come in to pick me up later. Besides, this place is very close to the west gate. There are so many guards outside. It’s fine for me to go over alone. The professors and teachers live further away than me. You guys can leave first.”

The few of them thought for a while and felt that it made sense, so they didn’t insist.

Chu Luo walked towards the west gate first.

She only slowed down when she walked out of everyone’s sight.

There was no dormitory district here, and at this time, there was no one else besides her.

Chu Luo took out her phone and swiped it as she walked.

Unexpectedly, the top ten trending topics today were all taken up by Blazing Glory, Imperial University, and her and Li Yan.

The content on it was obviously under control. There were no haters, only a few neutral comments.

At this point, the corners of Chu Luo’s lips curled up unconsciously.

She was about to log out of the webpage when she heard familiar footsteps coming from afar.

She looked up and saw the tall, slender, and domineering Li Yan striding over.

Chu Luo put away her phone and quickly walked up to Li Yan. She looked up at him and smiled.

“Yan, you’re here so quickly.”

Li Yan’s cold face instantly softened. He touched her face and asked, “Are you cold?”

“No.”

Despite having said that, she reached into his coat and felt the heat emanating from his body.

Then, she smiled mischievously and deliberately blinked her big eyes that were filled with stars. “Is my hand cold?”

Li Yan simply wrapped her in his coat and wrapped his arm around her waist as they walked towards the door.

“Cold. I can warm you up.”

“Hehe.”

The two of them chatted casually about today as they walked.

Li Yan told her, “After we announced these two things today, Blazing Glory’s share price increased by five percentage points.”

Chu Luo was a little surprised. “It actually increased so much?”

“Mm, no less than 20 corporations called the company today to invest in our gaming capsule.”

“Hmph! Dream on.” Chu Luo knew that Li Yan definitely wouldn’t agree to them.

Li Yan added, “Other than these corporations, there are also more than ten other countries’ imperial families who have this intention.”

Chu Luo looked up at him from inside his coat and subconsciously stopped.

Li Yan simply led her away and said as they walked, “I’m telling you all this to make you more vigilant. Maybe someone will deliberately approach you then. You don’t have to worry about anything else.”

Chu Luo nodded. “I won’t let anyone I don’t know get close to me.”

Li Yan stopped and lowered his head to kiss her on the lips as a reward before continuing to lead her away.

The two of them walked out of the west gate and saw a large group of bodyguards standing guard five meters away from their car. There was also a group of guards standing beside them. The level of security was so tight that even a fly couldn’t fly over.

After the two of them got into the car, more than ten cars drove out at the same time.

The group of reporters guarding in the corner looked at the departing fleet of cars. One of them said in a disappointed tone, “Time to knock off! It’s really difficult to get first-hand news of Master Li and Miss Chu!”

Everyone started packing up.

Another reporter said, “I hope the colleagues guarding Imperial Sky Park can have a more fruitful trip. As long as we can get some explosive news, XX News Network will be rich.”

“Tsk ~ Dream on. Your XX news network is just an entertainment gossip network. Surely you’re not thinking of digging up gossip about Master Li and Miss Chu?”

“You don’t understand. At this time, what everyone wants to see the most isn’t how powerful Master Li and Miss Chu are, but their daily lives. If we can capture a little of their public display of affection, we won’t have to continue waiting.”

“Pfft… Do you think someone as domineering as Master Li would display affection in public with Miss Chu?”

This question was too sharp, and that reporter actually wasn’t so sure anymore.

…

When the car arrived at the gate of the Imperial Sky Park villa, it didn’t enter through the main gate.

Chu Luo was a little surprised. “Why aren’t we going in?”

“I got someone to build a gate near our residence. We’ll walk there from now on.”

The car drove around the outer wall of the villa for more than ten minutes, and indeed, a newly built gate appeared in front.

The security there was even tighter.

After the car drove in, there were no more guards.

Chu Luo had set up a barrier around this area, so they weren’t worried that anyone would enter.

The two of them returned to the villa and the butler welcomed them. “Master, Miss Chu, do you want to eat supper?”

After the butler asked this, Chu Luo felt a little hungry.

She nodded. “I want to eat soup noodles.”

She then glanced at Li Yan and helped him reply with a smile, “Yan will have soup noodles too.”

“Okay.” The butler nodded and left.

The two of them sat on the sofa. Chu Luo was about to continue talking to Li Yan when her phone suddenly rang.

Other than Anya, no one else would call her at this time.

Anya was obviously calling her as soon as she woke up. Her voice was filled with uncontrollable shock. “Chu, I woke up to see such explosive news released by you and Li. This is too shocking.”

Chu Luo smiled. “You’ll get used to it.”

Anya laughed at these words. “If it’s you and Li, I should indeed get used to it.”

At this point, her voice suddenly became a little serious. “Chu, you’re so famous now. Aren’t you worried that someone will have designs on you?”

Chu Luo said, “Who do you think can have designs on me?”
