Chapter 99: You May Get Lost

With such a thing happening to Wei Wei and Chu Ting, the Wei family and Chu Zhengyang were in a terrible fix and didn’t have the energy to care about Chu Luo.

Chu Luo returned to her home.

When she entered, she realized that a few people were moving furniture inside.

She pointed at the items and asked, “What’s going on with these?”

Someone answered her, “Miss Chu, Master said that the furniture here weren’t exquisite enough. He asked for them to be changed.”

Chu Luo: “…”

Chu Luo angrily followed him in. She wanted to say, “This is my house. Who allowed him to change things?” But when she saw the ancient sandalwood furniture, she swallowed her words.

At this moment, Qin Ming strode in.

He saw Chu Luo standing in the living room. He only nodded at her and continued to stride upstairs.

Chu Luo looked at Qin Ming, who quickly went upstairs. After a while, he came down with a document and walked out. Chu Luo stopped him. “Qin Ming, stop right there.”

Qin Ming stopped.

“Miss Chu, what’s the matter?”

Then, he said, “This document of Master’s is very important. I have to send it over immediately.”

His tone seemed to be saying: “Children should stay at the side and play. Don’t delay the adults’ business.”

“…” Chu Luo gritted her teeth. Thinking that this person was just an errand boy and that it would be a waste of time to deal with him, she said, “You can get lost.”

Qin Ming left.

Chu Luo looked at the living room that had been modified by Li Yan to be completely different from when she first moved in. She rubbed her chin and pondered whether to lecture Li Yan for changing the furniture without her permission or to thank him.

Just then, her phone suddenly rang.

It was from Wei Xueying.

The Wei family was in a terrible state. Wei Yongchang didn’t forget Chu Luo and asked Wei Xueying to accompany her.

Wei Xueying didn’t manage to find her, so she got her number from Chu Zhengyang and called her.

Wei Xueying asked, “Luoluo, where did you go?”

Chu Luo: “I went back to the old district.”

Wei Xueying complained, “Why did you go back again?”

Then, she said, “I’ll come and pick you up immediately. I’ll take you out to play later.”

Without giving Chu Luo a chance to reply, she hung up.

Chu Luo looked down at her phone. She was indeed free this afternoon, and it wouldn’t be a bad idea to hang out with Wei Xueying.

Wei Xueying didn’t come in but called her from outside.

When Chu Luo went out, she even asked quietly, “Luoluo, is the owner of this house at home?”

“He’s out.”

Wei Xueying heaved a sigh of relief. After she drove the car out, she said, “That person’s aura is too scary. I wonder how you could dare to keep facing him?”

Chu Luo thought about Li Yan, who always liked to exude a cold aura, and said neutrally, “It’s alright.”

In any case, she wasn’t averse to his cold aura at all.

Wei Xueying glanced at Chu Luo and suddenly admired her courage.

She didn’t want to talk about that person anymore, so she changed the topic to today’s itinerary. “I’ll take you to eat first. After we finish eating, we’ll shop. You can buy whatever you want. Take it as a gift for your college entrance examination results.”

Chu Luo wasn’t very interested in shopping, but she still replied, “Okay.”

The car drove for a while before Wei Xueying asked, “Uncle will definitely not have time to return to Ocean City during this period of time. All the universities should be announcing their admission cutoff score tomorrow. I can send you there when you go back to Ocean City to fill in your application.”

“No need,” Chu Luo said. “I want to stay in Ocean City for a few days.”

Actually, Wei Xueying wanted to send Chu Luo back on the same day. However, after hearing that Chu Luo wanted to stay for a few days, she wasn’t down with it.

She considered it for a moment, then said, “I’ll be a little busy for the next few days. Tell you what, I’ll have two bodyguards follow you.”

Chu Luo didn’t refuse. After all, there were many ways she could shake off the bodyguards.

The two of them went to a classy Western restaurant for dinner.

When the steak was served, Wei Xueying cut the cooked steak into three portions as she persuaded Chu Luo earnestly, “Luoluo, I know you’ve always had something against Aunt and Tingting, but they’re already in this state. Don’t keep being angry with them.”

She then popped the steak into her mouth and tasted it carefully. It was simply delicious.

Chu Luo looked at Wei Xueying’s steak, which had traces of blood, and quietly removed the piece of steak in front of her to eat the side dishes on the plate.

Wei Xueying noticed her actions and asked, “Luoluo, don’t you like steak?”

Chu Luo nodded seriously. “If it’s this kind of steak, I really don’t like it.”

Wei Xueying was stunned by Chu Luo’s honesty. She smiled and said, “Then I’ll get you some seafood baked rice.”

“Okay.”

After dinner, they got into the car and were about to go to the biggest shopping center in Imperial Capital when Wei Xueying received a call.

It was unknown what the other party said to her, but she was immediately so excited that her voice rose several octaves. “Okay, I’ll be right there.”

Then, she hung up the phone and said to Chu Luo, “Luoluo, let’s go to the film studio first. Ci Jing is filming there today. I want to go there and observe his acting skills on the spot.”

Chu Luo had never chased after celebrities and had no idea who Wei Xueying was referring to. However, seeing how excited Wei Xueying was, she simply nodded.

The film studio complex in the Imperial City was located in the suburbs of the north. It was famous throughout the world. Not only because it occupied a vast area, but also because there were buildings inside, both ancient and modern.

When the two of them arrived at the film studio complex, it was the hottest time of the day. The car was parked in the parking lot outside the main entrance of the film studio complex.

After Wei Xueying put on her sunglasses, mask, and a big hat, she got out of the car and said to Chu Luo, “No cars are allowed in the film studio complex. We’ll take a rickshaw inside.”

Chu Luo looked at Wei Xueying, who had covered herself up tightly.

Wei Xueying smiled and said, “I’m going to become a celebrity someday. I can’t let the paparazzi take photos of me.”

Chu Luo nodded and the two of them walked in.

After entering, the two of them got on a rickshaw. Wei Xueying fanned herself as she spoke to the curious Chu Luo.

“This place puts emphasis on environmental protection. In addition, much of the ground is made of limestone. If a car drove in, it would crush the ground, so this antique vehicle is used to transport people in.”

The rickshaw drove past several buildings from different eras. Chu Luo was overwhelmed by all these sights.

“Do you feel like you’ve transmigrated?”

“Yes. The buildings here look very similar to the buildings in history.”

“That’s… The buildings here are built according to history. Later, we’ll go to the buildings of the X dynasty. When we get there, you’ll think that you’ve transmigrated to that real ancient era.”

When the rickshaw driver, who was pulling the rickshaw, heard Wei Xueying say this, he interjected, “Misses, are you going to watch the superstar Ci Jing film?”

Wei Xueying didn’t want to talk to the rickshaw man, so Chu Luo replied, “Yes.”

The rickshaw took almost twenty minutes before they got to the entrance of the X dynasty building complex.

As soon as they got out of the rickshaw, a tall, Western-looking woman in a spaghetti dress came over and pulled Wei Xueying along as she ran inside.

“Xueying, hurry up. I heard that Ci Jing has only one scene this afternoon and will leave right after the shoot. If you’d come any later, you’d have missed seeing him.”

Wei Xueying only had time to turn around and say to Chu Luo, “Luoluo, follow us quickly.”

“Okay.”

Chu Luo was about to follow when the rickshaw puller suddenly stopped her. “Miss, you haven’t paid the fare.”

Chu Luo had no choice but to stop and pay the fare with her phone’s QR code. However, when she turned around, the two people had already run into the gate and disappeared.

Chu Luo couldn’t be bothered to look for them and slowly walked towards the gate.

As soon as she entered, she was shocked by the ancient buildings inside.

Just like Wei Xueying had said, walking on these streets was like being transported back in time.

Chu Luo followed the others in a certain direction.

Not long after, she saw barricades on the street ahead.

These people were pointing at the front.

When she got closer, she realized that there was a shoot going on.

“Oh my god! Ci Jing looks so handsome in a white ancient costume! I feel like that costume was specially prepared for him. I’m going to faint from his handsomeness.”

“I’m so envious of the actress who’s acting with him!”

“Outrageous! Did that actress take the chance to throw herself at him?”

“Ahhh… That evil smirk on Ci Jing’s lips just now made my legs go limp. I really want to give birth to his child…”

When Chu Luo heard this, the corners of her lips finally twitched.

In her heart, this kind of fanatical worship should be given to people who could bring peace to the masses. How could it be given to someone who only had outstanding looks?

At the thought of this, she turned around and continued walking along the streets of the ancient city.

The ancient street was actually very hot at this time, like a steamer, but Chu Luo didn’t feel anything.

After walking for god knew how long, she came to a remote corner. She heard intermittent sobbing and consolation coming from the corner.

“Sister Yingying, stop crying. If the reporters catch you, they’ll defame you again.”

The sobbing finally softened a little, but she was extremely sad. “Jiajia, do you think I’m really not suited to staying in the entertainment circle?”

“How is that possible?” the woman called Jiajia hurriedly said. “Sister Yingying, you have both the acting skills and the looks. It’s just that you’re unlucky.”

As Jiajia spoke, her tone was filled with indignation. “Sister Yingying, every time you receive a script or endorsement, it is always snatched away by Yu Ling’er. She must have used some unscrupulous method.”

“Jiajia, don’t spout nonsense without evidence.”

“Is there a need for evidence for such a thing? Yu Ling’er’s acting isn’t as good as yours, and she’s not as good-looking as you. If she hadn’t used some tricks, how could she have snatched all those resources from you?

“This time, she even stole your second female lead role and made you become the fifth female lead instead. The moment you went up, she slapped you so hard. She must have done it on purpose!”

When Chu Luo heard this, she turned to look at the man in a baseball cap hiding on the other side, taking pictures with his camera. She decided to poke her nose into other people’s business and raised her voice to ask, “Are you secretly taking pictures?”

Chu Luo’s voice immediately attracted the attention of the two women who were hiding in the dark.

Among the two women, one was dressed in an ancient green costume and the other was wearing a cotton t-shirt and a pair of suspenders.

The woman in green ancient clothing had a charming appearance, just like the daughters of ancient families. However, one of her cheeks was a little red and swollen.

When they saw that man, their expressions changed at the same time.
