The Wife of the Wealthy Family Is Fierce and Cute Novel - Chapter 292
Chapter 292: Student Union’s Test
Zhang Yiran was obviously very famous. When she stopped Chu Luo, she immediately became the focus of everyone’s attention.
Hearing her say this, everyone was shocked. Then, many people started whispering.
“Minister Zhang looks very familiar with Chu Luo, doesn’t she?”
“When did Chu Luo say that she was going to run for the Student Union office?”
“Chu Luo is indeed Chu Luo. It’s fine if she doesn’t make a move, but once she does, it’s actually to run for the Student Union office.”
“No wonder she was indifferent to the school belle contest. It turns out that she really didn’t take a fancy to the title of school belle but to the even more powerful Student Union.”
“Minister Zhang stopped Chu Luo. Is Chu Luo going to run for the position of Liaison Minister?”
“That’s impossible. Zhang Yiran has been the Liaison Minister for only a year. How could she possibly retire?”
“Didn’t she say that she would support Chu Luo as long as Chu Luo fulfilled her request? It only means that Chu Luo will run for one of the Minister positions. She didn’t say that Chu Luo will run for Liaison Minister.”
“That’s true… but what Minister position will Chu Luo run for?”
“I think a nerd like Chu Luo will definitely run to become the Minister of the Study Department or the Secretary Department.”
“But the Minister of the Study Department has also been in office for only a year. How could he possibly retire?”
“Do you think with Chu Luo’s character, she won’t fight for it if she wants to run?”
“Then… when the time comes, won’t Chu Luo have to fight with the Study Department or Secretary Department Minister alone? Who doesn’t know that the Secretary Department Minister is capable enough to be a secretary for large companies? Would a nerd like Chu Luo who only knows how to study know how to run the Secretary Department?”
“The Minister of the Study Department has already won a few international heavyweight trophies for the country. Chu Luo only won a Computer Science national certificate. How can she compare to Minister Pei!”
“That’s right. Minister Pei is much better than Chu Luo!”
“So there’s a good show to watch.”
“I’m looking forward to it.”
…
Chu Luo knew that Zhang Yiran was saying this on purpose to make everyone misunderstand.
However, she didn’t mind. She looked at Zhang Yiran, whose eyes were sparkling. “What do you want me to do?”
Zhang Yiran smiled. Her smile was bright and warm. “It’s like this. In a while, our Student Union will have to welcome a few Student Union members from overseas universities. When the time comes, we will hold some activities, but the school won’t grant us any funds. Our Student Union can only think of a way to raise funds.”
At this point, she deliberately stopped.
Indeed, someone gasped.
“Tsk… Could it be that Minister Zhang wants Chu Luo to help the Student Union raise funds?”
Zhang Yiran raised an eyebrow at Chu Luo. “I want you to help me raise some funds. Is that okay?”
After saying that, she looked at her expectantly.
Chu Luo looked straight into her eyes. Just as Zhang Yiran thought that Chu Luo would give up, she asked, “How much do you need to raise?”
“The more the merrier, of course.” Zhang Yiran deliberately didn’t say how much she wanted to raise. She only added, “After I became a minister, the highest batch of funds I raised was 200,000 yuan.”
After saying that, she raised her chin slightly amid the admiring voices.
Chu Luo nodded. “Got it.”
“Eh?” Zhang Yiran didn’t expect Chu Luo to agree so easily. She suddenly remembered that the President had said that Chu Luo was much more capable than she had imagined. Most people wouldn’t be able to make things difficult for her.
Zhang Yiran thought for a moment and quickly added, “Since this is a test for you, you have to raise funds that aren’t sponsored by your family or friends.”
Chu Luo smiled. “You can choose someone directly. I’ll just get him to donate when the time comes.”
Zhang Yiran thought to herself, ‘This suits me too well. I’ll designate a company for you that’s about to go bankrupt to ask for sponsorship from. I’ll make you retreat.’
However, on the surface, she pretended to be thinking for her and said, “I can’t make things difficult for you. How about this? You can go to the CEO of Jinxin Construction and Equipment Company in the south of the city. You don’t need to secure much sponsorship money. A few tens of thousands will do.”
Chu Luo continued to look at Zhang Yiran. After a few seconds, she said, “Address.”
Zhang Yiran quickly gave her an address.
Chu Luo nodded and walked straight into the school.
“Hey…”
Zhang Yiran asked loudly, “Don’t tell me you’re going to go in a few days? I want it today.”
Chu Luo had long walked away and didn’t answer her.
Zhang Yiran didn’t get angry. The corners of her lips curled up. She took out her phone and sent a message to the Student Union’s internal group chat before walking happily towards the school bus stop.
The group of people who stayed behind to watch immediately spread this matter to the school’s BBS.
Then, the entire campus BBS exploded.
Many people were betting that Chu Luo wouldn’t be able to raise the money.
Chu Luo was going to report to Year 3 today. After she chatted with all the specialization teachers, it was already noon.
Coincidentally, Wu Yiyao called her, so she went to meet her for lunch.
While eating, Wu Yiyao smiled and said, “Little Chu, you suddenly went from first year to third year. The entire school exploded.”
Chu Luo didn’t mind. “So what? I’ll just focus on learning.”
“Haha.”
Wu Yiyao chuckled and changed the topic. “Have you been researching with Professor Tang and the others recently?”
Professor Wu and Wu Yiyao knew what Chu Luo was doing research, but she didn’t say it out loud.
Chu Luo nodded. “Yes.”
Wu Yiyao quietly looked around. Seeing that no one was paying attention, she lowered her voice and said, “My father and the other researchers have stopped. The higher-ups are suddenly suppressing Blazing Glory. They’ve been under monitoring these past few days.”
At this point, she couldn’t help but say, “Luckily, we’re waiting for you here. Otherwise, if this stops just like that, the researchers will go crazy.”
Chu Luo hadn’t paid much attention to Professor Wu and the others recently. She asked, “What happened here?”
Wu Yiyao couldn’t say it here, so she gestured to Chu Luo. “Eat first. After you’re done, let’s go to my father’s apartment to rest for a while.”
Chu Luo nodded and the two of them quickly ate.
After eating, the two of them went to Professor Wu’s apartment in the school’s residential area reserved for professors.
Professor Wu wasn’t there.
Wu Yiyao opened the door and entered. Before the two of them could speak, Roundy, who was following behind them, beeped.
Wu Yiyao asked curiously, “Little Chu, what happened to your robot?”
Chu Luo said seriously, “Roundy is out of battery.”
“Oh, oh, then let him charge. The socket…”
Before Wu Yiyao could finish, Roundy walked in by himself. He walked around the room as if looking for a socket.
Wu Yiyao was wondering why Roundy didn’t notice the few sockets in the room. At this moment, Chu Luo suddenly pulled her hand.
Wu Yiyao seemed to have guessed something and didn’t say anything else.
Roundy didn’t stop until he reached the television cabinet in the living room. He took out a charger and plugged it into the socket.
However, as soon as Roundy was connected to the socket, the wires in the room started making cracking noises. It was obvious that the circuit had short-circuited.
Wu Yiyao wasn’t worried about the circuit. Instead, she was a little worried about Roundy. “Little Chu, is your robot okay?”
“He’s fine.” Chu Luo walked over and pointed at the place where Roundy stopped. “There’s a monitor installed here.”
After saying that, she looked elsewhere. “There are a few more spots.”
When Wu Yiyao heard this, her expression changed and she quickly regained her composure. “So is it very unsafe for us to be here now?”
“No. Just now, Roundy has destroyed the entire house’s circuit and those monitors.”
“Won’t this make those people suspicious?”
“It’s okay even if they get suspicious. In any case, they know who gave me my robot.” Chu Luo smiled. “At least no one will know what we’re saying now.”
Wu Yiyao nodded and suddenly frowned. “Does Little Chu know what happened? After my father and the other researchers began to be monitored, there were a few people among the higher-ups who came to do inspections. They were just short of calling the researchers one by one for interrogation.”
“What reason did the higher-ups give to monitor Professor Wu and the others?”
“Illegal operations. Some programs are disrupting human mental systems.” At this point, Wu Yiyao sneered. “The gaming capsule has been undergoing research for more than two years. If there really was a violation, why wasn’t the research ordered to stop before?”
Chu Luo took out a bottle of juice from Roundy’s snacks pocket and handed it to Wu Yiyao. “Sister Wu, don’t be angry. This matter will end soon.”
Wu Yiyao’s eyes lit up. “Really?”
“Really.” Chu Luo didn’t say much.
She only said, “Don’t worry. We just need to watch what happens up there. It doesn’t matter if the gaming capsule stops at this time.
“However, it’s best if you don’t move around alone during this period of time. I’m worried that they will use you to threaten Professor Wu into saying something groundless to frame Blazing Glory and Li Yan.”
Wu Yiyao frowned even more but still nodded. “Got it.”
Chu Luo thought for a while and handed her a talisman. “Keep this with you at all times. As long as you’re in danger, I’d be able to feel it.”
Wu Yiyao took the talisman and removed the jade pendant from her neck. She asked, “Little Chu, can you attach the talisman to this?”
Chu Luo tapped her hand and the talisman covered the jade pendant. Then, it disappeared.
Wu Yiyao put the jade pendant back on.
The two of them talked for a while more. Chu Luo still had to go to the south of the city, so she left Imperial University with Roundy.
