Chapter 243: “Rich Girl and Poor Boy”

Chapter 243

People they encountered on the road nodded and greeted them: "Boss, Madam."

"Boss, Madam."

Chi Yan and Chu Yang both nodded in response.

That group of people waited until they were out of sight before daring to walk out. One of them said, "So that's the current head of the Chi Corporation. He's so young."

"The girl next to him is young too."

"I heard Chairman Chi got married. That must be his wife. They really do make a good match."

"My goodness, I can't believe we ran into the head of Chi Corporation while on this filming assignment. It was totally worth it."

Huahua nudged Yiran beside her, "No wonder you went over to greet them. Did you... did you know beforehand?"

Yiran shook her head, "No, I just met them once before."

Meanwhile, Lingying's face had turned pale. She didn't say anything, but from then on, she never dared to be so arrogant when going out. You never know who might turn out to be a big shot.

Chu Luo's college entrance exam scores were quite good. The Chu family had produced another university student, but Chu Luo didn't choose A University. Instead, he chose B University's medical school. Chu Luo had decided to study medicine.

Chu Yang of course respected his decision. As for Chu Luo's parents, they were even more supportive - medicine was a profession particularly favored by the older generation.

When Chu Luo came to university, Chu Yang gave him the house she had bought previously. "You can live in this house."

Chu Luo immediately refused, "No, I don't want your house. I'll just live in the dorm." He thought Chu Yang was giving the house to him.

Chu Yang glanced at him, "What are you thinking? I'm letting you live here, not giving it to you. You can come stay when you have time, and bring classmates over for meals. Keep it clean, otherwise my house will have no one living in it and lose its lived-in feel. How sad would that be?"

Hearing this, Chu Luo breathed a sigh of relief, "I got it. I'll definitely clean regularly."

"Mm. Keep a couple sets of clothes here too. Sometimes when you can't get back to school, you can stay here."

Chi Yan, who was beside them, chimed in: "Or you could stay at our place."

Chu Luo didn't want to disturb the couple. If he went to stay with them, he felt Chi Yan would definitely find him annoying. But out loud, he just said, "Okay, okay, I got it."

Medical students are quite busy, with a lot of reading to do. Chu Luo even took on part-time work sometimes, so he really didn't have enough time. He was extremely busy, and after Chu Yang accompanied him for registration that first time, she never came again.

On this particular day, which happened to be a holiday, Chu Yang drove over to pick him up for a meal together. She had sent Chu Luo a message in advance.

The eye-catching Maserati was parked at the entrance of the college. When Chu Luo walked out with his classmates after class, Chu Yang rolled down the window and waved at him.

Chu Luo's classmate immediately nudged him, "Chu Luo, isn't that person over there looking for you?"

Chu Luo looked over and saw it was his sister. He quickly said goodbye to his classmate, "I've got to go." Then he quickly walked over and got in the car. Under everyone's gaze, Chu Yang drove away from the entrance of the medical school.

This brief scene spawned countless versions of gossip.

"Chu Luo must be kept by a rich woman, right?"

"Maybe it's a love-hate story between a rich heiress and a poor boy! The heiress's father sponsors the poor boy's education, the heiress falls for the poor boy, but the poor boy doesn't like her. However, because of her father, he has to maintain a good relationship with her. Then there's all sorts of push and pull, coercion, falling in and out of love, separating and getting back together, forced love, 'I love you, I hate you' - the whole package..."

"Who's the angst fiction writer above? I want to follow them."

"Didn't anyone notice that the girl who came to pick up Chu Luo looked a bit like him? Maybe Chu Luo is actually a low-key rich young master?"

"Or maybe he's a recently found illegitimate child of a wealthy family. The illegitimate child comes back, gets bullied, then works hard in secret, and eventually becomes a big shot who crushes everyone!"

"Maybe that's Chu Luo's girlfriend, a secret affair between a rich girl and a poor boy. In the end, the rich girl's father finds out, tries to separate them. But unexpectedly, Chu Luo works hard, becomes a big shot after graduation, slaps the girl's father in the face, and marries the girl. Cue the flower petals!"

"...You're all masters at this. Hurry up and write it, I want to read it!"

At that moment in the car, Chu Yang was driving and asking, "How's your studying going?"

Chu Luo: "It's alright."

"Did you pass your midterms?"

"...I passed." Not only did he pass, he excelled.

"Have you taken a liking to any girls at school? Boys should be proactive, like your brother-in-law. Remember to buy snacks for the girl you like."

Chu Luo: "...So, brother-in-law won you over by buying you snacks back then?"

Chu Yang replied matter-of-factly: "No. Actually, I was attracted to his good looks and his money."

Chu Luo: ...Wonder how brother-in-law would feel if he heard that.

Chu Yang took Chu Luo directly back to the old family house. The chef was already preparing the dishes.

As soon as they entered, they saw Grandfather Chi Bai sitting in the living room.

"Grandpa." Chu Yang walked over.

Chi Bai was very pleased, "You're back. This must be Chu Luo, right?"

Chu Luo quickly greeted him too: "Hello, Grandpa."

"Good, good. Come, have some fruit."

"Thank you, Grandpa."

Chi Bai chatted with Chu Luo, mainly asking about things at school.

Soon after, Chi Yan and Chi Xin returned, and Chi Jin came over too.

"Grandpa."

"Grandpa."

"Ah! You're all back. Sit down, quick."

After dinner that evening, Chu Yang didn't send Chu Luo back. "You'll stay here tonight. I'll have someone prepare a room for you, and I'll take you to school tomorrow."

"Okay," Chu Luo was very obedient.

"Your brother-in-law and I will be staying here too. If you need anything, just ask the housekeeper or your brother-in-law."

Chi Yan, who was beside them, also said: "That's right, just ask me." The implication was clear: don't bother your sister.

Chu Luo caught his hidden meaning and rolled his eyes, ignoring him. In Chu Luo's eyes, Chi Yan was just a clingy, jealous person.

See, wherever his sister went, he followed, like a little tail. Even when she went to the kitchen for a glass of water, he would follow...

The next morning, Chi Yan directly told Chu Luo: "I've already arranged for a driver to take you to school in a bit. Your sister won't be sending you off. She needs to rest properly."

Chu Luo looked at his smug expression and said resignedly, "...I got it."

The driver took Chu Luo directly to the dormitory entrance. His roommates were stunned to see Chu Luo stepping out of a luxury car. The driver looked every bit like he worked for a wealthy family, wearing white gloves and even coming around to open the door for Chu Luo. As he left, the driver said to Chu Luo, "Young Master Chu Luo, I'll be heading back now."

"Alright," Chu Luo replied.

As soon as the car drove away, Chu Luo was surrounded by his peers.

"Chu, are you really from a rich and powerful family?"

"Or are you the secret love child everyone's been talking about?"

"Maybe you're the poor boy who caught the eye of a wealthy heiress?"

Chu Luo was baffled. What on earth were they on about?

"What are you guys talking about?" he asked, confused.

"That car just now... and the driver called you 'Young Master'!!!"

Hearing this, Chu Luo understood what they were thinking. "You're letting your imaginations run wild. That wasn't my family's car."

"So you are the poor boy who caught a rich girl's eye?"

Chu Luo rolled his eyes. "What rich girl?"

"The one who came to pick you up yesterday!"
