Chapter 564 - The Wedding Invitation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The next morning, Chu Luo called Chen Xuan and asked him to help her send Anya and Qin Ming a wedding gift.
Just as she hung up the phone, the butler came in with an exquisite bag.
Chu Luo was still wondering what was inside the bag when the butler walked up to her and handed her the bag. “Miss Chu, this contains the invitations for your classmates. Are you going to give it to them personally, or should I get someone to send it over today?”
Chu Luo thought for a while and took the bag. “I’l give it to them.”
It was convenient for her to do so anyway.
The butler then told her about the Li residence’s preparations for the wedding.
Everything was arranged properly.
‘When Chu Luo heard this, she said to him, “Butler, you’ve worked hard.”
A gentle expression appeared on the butler’s face. “This is my duty.”
At this moment, Li Yan entered. When he saw the bag in Chu Luo’s hand, he guessed that it contained the invitations. He walked over and asked her, “Luoluo, who do you want to host our wedding?”
Other than the emcee, those with elders at home would come out to host the wedding here. They could also invite respected elders. It was also a form of blessing for the newlyweds.
Chu Luo didn’t have any elders while Li Yan only had one aunt. They weren’t suitable at all.
However, Chu Luo could still find Old Gao.
She had thought of this before.
Chu Luo was about to say this when her phone rang, She looked at it and was a little surprised. “It’s from Eldest Master Sun.”
With that, she picked up the phone.
Eldest Master Sun asked her in a serious tone, “Little Chu, which elder are you going to invite to host your wedding with Li Yan?”
Chu Luo suddenly thought of Old Master Duanmu. Previously, Li Yan had agreed to let him host the wedding, but she didn’t know if he could still invite him now.
The Duanmu family had already declined. Li Yan had prepared a manor for Old Master Duanmu, and Old Master Duanmu was now living a leisurely life. He was simply unwilling to see Li Yan or anyone.
Chu Luo said to him, “I want to invite Teacher Gao to host it.”
Eldest Master Sun agreed. “It’s good that you have such an idea, but have you thought about it? With your and Li Yan’s current status, Teacher Gao can’t host this wedding alone.”
It wasn’t that he looked down on Old Gao, but Eldest Master Sun was just stating the facts.
“Not only will many corporations attend your wedding, but the upper echelons of the various countries will also send people over. In addition, on that day, your Grandpa Sun will announce that he will acknowledge you as his granddaughter. Think about it. You’re pushing Teacher Gao to such a high
position. After that day, will there be many people with ulterior motives who have designs on him?”
Chu Luo’s expression froze when she heard this.
Li Yan, who was standing beside her, also heard Eldest Master Sun’s words. He agreed. “You’re right.”
Chu Luo was in a difficult position. She looked at him and asked, “Then who should I invite?”
Chu Luo had actually considered Old Master Sun, but she thought that he hadn’t recovered much yet and wouldn’t be able to withstand it.
Li Yan gestured to the person on her phone with his eyes.
Chu Luo thought for a while and listened to his opinion. “Then I’ll invite Grandpa Sun.”
Eldest Master Sun’s tone instantly became very gratified. “Sure. I’m beside your Grandpa Sun. You can tell him yourself.”
Chu Luo: “…”
After Eldest Master Sun handed the phone to Old Master Sun, Chu Luo called out sweetly, “Grandpa Sun.”
“Hey!” Old Master Sun immediately responded happily.
Chu Luo said, “Yan and I are getting married. Can I invite you to host our wedding?”
“Sure, sure.” Old Master Sun seemed to have realized that he had answered too quickly and cleared his throat. “Alright, I’ll be coming to your and Li Yan’s wedding anyway.”
Chu Luo couldn’t help but smile. “Alright, we’ll bring you to the Li residence a day early.”
“This won’t do!”
Old Master Sun’s tone became stern. “You should come to the Sun residence the night before and get married from the Sun residence the next day.”
Chu Luo couldn’t help but look at Li Yan.
This time, Li Yan didn’t say anything. Instead, he took the phone from her hand and said to Old Master Sun, “Old Master Sun, it’s Li Yan.”
The moment the person who spoke changed, Old Master Sun’s tone became less amiable. He said unhappily, “I’m talking to my granddaughter. Why did you take the phone away from her? Young Li, I’m warming you. If Little Luoluo didn’t like you, I don’t at all fancy letting her marry you.”
Chu Luo watched as Li Yan’s face darkened and quickly tugged at his clothes.
Li Yan said calmly, “I’ll love Luoluo with all my heart for the rest of my life.”
Old Master Sun didn’t say anything.
Li Yan added, “Other than inviting you to be a host, I’m also going to invite Old Master Duanmu.”
The other end of the line suddenly fell silent.
Li Yan was also silent.
After a while, Old Master Sun sighed and said, “Up to you, as long as you can invite that stubborn old man over.”
With that, he hung up the phone angrily.
Li Yan calmly handed the phone to Chu Luo.
Chu Luo took the phone and looked at him.
Li Yan told him, “Tl go to Old Master Duanmu’s place today.”
Chu Luo nodded.
After breakfast, Li Yan sent Chu Luo to Imperial University and asked the chauffeur to go to Old Master Duanmu’s place.
Chu Luo brought Roundy to the Student Union.
It was still early, but most of the cadres of the Student Union were here.
‘When they saw Chu Luo, they were a little surprised.
“President Chu, why are you here at this time?”
The group of people followed behind her and subconsciously looked at the bag in her hand.
‘As Chu Luo walked towards the office building, she said, “I happen to be free, so I came to see how your work is going.”
“Don’t worry about that. Our work is going smoothly. I guarantee that the New Year’s Gala won’t disappoint you.”
“That’s right. We’re working on the other matters at the same time.”
Everyone arrived at the president’s office. Chu Luo walked to the desk and took out the invitations in the bag.
Everyone’s eyes lit up.
“These are invitations for you. Can anyone help me distribute them?”
There were names on it.
Yu Tong quickly raised her hand. “Me! I! I’ll do it! ‘ll do it!”
After saying that, she used her petite figure to block everyone. She ran over and picked up all the invitations. With a smug expression, she said, “Everyone, stand properly. Whoever’s name I announce will come forward to receive it.”
Everyone subconsciously stood properly.
Chu Luo watched as Yu Tong acted like a fox exploiting the tiger’s might as she distributed the invitations, and resisted the urge to hold her forehead.
It was just an invitation. Was there a need to be like this?
After everyone had received their invitations, Yu Tong put aside the invitations of the few people who weren’t present and asked Chu Luo with sparkling eyes, “Chu Luo, you will definitely need a few bridesmaids. Do you have any candidates for the bridesmaid?”
Chu Luo had one in her heart, and that was Wu Yiyao. As for the rest, she hadn’t decided yet.
She knew what Yu Tong was thinking when she saw her gaze. She said, “As my bridesmaid, you have to follow me the night before. Do you have time?”
“Yes, yes, yes. The gala will end at half-past nine. I can take a taxi over then.”
“My house is a little far.”
“It’s okay. No matter how far it is I’ll rush there.”
Chu Luo thought for a while. She definitely wouldn’t let her take a taxi herself. She said, “Alright, I’ll get the chauffeur to pick you up.”
“Mm, mm.”
Yu Tong was so happy that she wanted to jump up and spin in circles.
After Chu Luo gave them their invitations, she left with the remaining ones for Tang Zhiyun and the others.
After class in the morning, Wang Mingtao came over immediately.
The two of them had just ordered and were sitting in the restaurant when Yu Tong and Zhang Yiran came looking for them.
Zhang Yiran had gone to the Student Union late in the morning. When she heard that Chu Luo had asked Yu Tong to be her bridesmaid, she felt like grass had grown in her heart and wanted to recommend herself to Chu Luo.
As soon as school ended, she pulled Yu Tong over to look for Chu Luo.
“Chu Luo…”
“Go order first. Otherwise, all the delicious food will be bought by others.”
When Chu Luo said this, Zhang Yiran could only retract her words.
She and Yu Tong went to line up to order.
‘Wang Mingtao glanced at Yu Tong and Zhang Yiran. He craned his neck and asked Chu Luo in a low voice, “Sister Chu, why are Yu Tong and Zhang Yiran here?”
“L promised Yu Tong this morning I’d make her my bridesmaid. Zhang Yiran wasn’t in school yet at the time.”
‘Wang Mingtao immediately understood.
“Zhang Yiran wants to be your bridesmaid too, right?”
Wang Mingtao retracted his head with a conflicted expression. He looked like he didn’t know if he should say something.
Chu Luo glanced at him. “Just say i
“Erm…” Wang Mingtao felt that it wasn’t good to gossip about others behind their backs, but he still said,” Sister Chu, I think Zhang Yiran is too scheming. She might do something using her status as your bridesmaid. ”
Chu Luo stared at him.
‘Wang Mingtao thought that she didn’t believe him. He quickly extended his hand and made a vow. “Sister Chu, believe me.”
Chu Luo asked him, “Why do you think the Student Union people want to attend my wedding with Yan?”
Chu Luo hadn’t interacted with them for long. Other than Yu Tong, who had worked with her before, the others had more or less had a wait-and-see attitude before.
It was also because she took over the position of president that these people started to submit to her.
Seeing that Wang Mingtao couldn’t think of these, Chu Luo said directly, “As people from the Imperial University Student Union, their abilities are all there. But no one can guarantee that they won’t be inferior to ordinary people in the future.
“My wedding with Yan has always involved many benefits. These people are my classmates. No matter how scheming they are, they can’t do anything to harm me.
“Why shouldn’t I let her be my bridesmaid?”
‘Wang Mingtao thought about Chu Luo’s words seriously and felt that they made sense. He immediately looked at her in admiration. “Sister Chu, you’re amazing. You even considered this.”
Chu Luo glanced at him. “That’s why I asked you to read more books when you have nothing to do.”
“What has that got to do with reading more books?”
“There are experiences concluded by predecessors in books. Most of the time, you can just apply them.”
Wang Mingtao was speechless.
The two of them didn’t wait long before Yu Tong and Zhang Yiran brought over the food.
After the two of them sat down, Zhang Yiran asked Chu Luo nervously and expectantly, “Chu Luo, can I be your bridesmaid too?”
Chu Luo nodded. “Sure.”
“Yay!”
Zhang Yiran was so excited that she grabbed Yu Tong’s arm and shook it as she screamed.
Wang Mingtao couldn’t help but retort, “Zhang Yiran, Yu Tong is so petite. You’re going to break her if you don’t stop shaking her.”
These words immediately attracted two displeased gazes.
Zhang Yiran said, “I’m just excited, okay? Besides, I didn’t use much strength.”
Yu Tong chimed in, “Do you think I’m made of tofu? I’m broken just by shaking!”
Chu Luo only glanced at Wang Mingtao and started eating seriously without saying anything.
“L…” Wang Mingtao was a little aggrieved by Yu Tong’s straightforward words.” I’m helping you. Why did you say that?”
Yu Tong rolled her eyes at him.
She couldn’t help but say in a doubtful tone, “I really wonder how you became Chu Luo’s friend.”
‘Wang Mingtao said smugly, “With my charm, of course.”
“What charm?” Yu Tong sized him up. “Is it the charm of a husky?”
“You…”
“Bat”
The moment Chu Luo spoke, the two of them immediately shut their mouths and started eating.
‘After the few of them ate, Chu Luo and Wang Mingtao went to Phoenix Skies Legend Company.
At this moment, Tang Zhiyun and the other three were eating. Seeing the two of them enter, Tang Zhiyun swallowed the food in his mouth and said, “Junior, Taozi, you’re here.”
After saying that, he pointed to the side. “Taozi, bring a chair over for Junior. Take a seat first. We’re about to finish eating.”
Chu Luo glanced at the lunchbox they were eating and saw that there was actually half of it left. “Take your time. We’re in no hurry.”
Wang Mingtao chimed in, “That’s right. We’re in no hurry.”
Chu Luo didn’t wait for Wang Mingtao to bring her a chair. She placed the bag in her hand on the desk and said to them, “This is an invitation for you guys. You can go to the Li residence the day before in the afternoon. The butler has already prepared the clothes and things.”
The four of them would be four of the best men.
Wang Mingtao couldn’t stand it anymore. “Sister Chu, why are the seniors the best men? I’m only going as part of the wedding entourage?”
“You know how to drink?”
“Why not!”
“You know International Common Language?”
Looking at Wang Mingtao, who was instantly rendered speechless, Xie Minghai laughed out loud.
After laughing, he said straightforwardly, “Taozi, do you know how much effort Junior has put in to force you to take the foreign language exam?”
‘Wang Mingtao lowered his head in shame and moved his lips. After a while, he said to Chu Luo, “Sister Chu, I will definitely learn foreign languages well.”
Chu Luo nodded in satisfaction and went to the studio outside. She sat casually by a computer and looked at their recent results.
‘Tang Zhiyun and the other three were already working on designing online games. There was a high stack of books on this topic beside each computer.
Other than these books, there were actually all kinds of travel magazines.
Wang Mingtao followed her out and sat beside another computer. He didn’t look at the computer but casually picked up a travel magazine to read.
As he read, he muttered, “This place isn’t bad, this place isn’t bad… This place isn’t bad either. When I earn big money myself, I’ll definitely tour all the places.”
Chu Luo glanced at him but didn’t say anything.
At this moment, Wang Mingtao suddenly brought a magazine to Chu Luo. “Sister Chu, look. This travel magazine actually featured a ghost city in our empire’s F County.”
The empire’s F County’s Ghost City was famous worldwide. Any tourist who had been there would say that they had really encountered a ghost.
So the people who went there were either especially bold or adventurers.
“Sister Chu, do you think there are ghosts in this world? The rumors there are so magical. It’s said that everyone who goes there has seen ghosts. Since they saw ghosts, how did they come out?”
Chu Luo took the magazine and glanced at it before turning to look at Wang Mingtao.
Instead of answering, she asked, “If there are really ghosts there, how could all these people have walked out of there? How could this place have become a tourist attraction?”
‘Wang Mingtao choked and was speechless.
