Chapter 99 How can you lose every day in the game?

No one expected that Shi Huai and Zhou Jibai would return to Changjing without any warning.

The moment Zhou Chaolu saw Shi Huai appear, her eyes suddenly flashed with light, and then a strong sense of guilt enveloped her heart.

"Second sister-in-law..." Zhou Chaolu's eyes and nose were red, and she looked at Shi Huai with tears in her eyes.

Shi Huai walked up to her, rubbed her head to comfort her, and then looked at his parents-in-law across from him.

Zhao Yang immediately walked over, held her hand, and asked her about her well-being: "Why are you back? Your father and I were planning to go to Guangnan to find you in a couple of days and come back with you."

Shi Huai smiled and said, "I missed home, so I came back."

This made Zhao Yang burst into tears. "Have you eaten yet?"

"I've eaten." Shi Huai had a gentle smile on his lips and patted Zhao Yang's hand twice.

She and Zhou Jibai had been in Guangnan for more than half a month, and it was time for them to return.

It was a coincidence that I came here today. I happened to see the Zhou family planning to send Zhou Chaolu out of the country in a harsh and forceful manner.

Shi Huai looked back at Zhou Jibai behind him.

He didn't say a word from the moment he stepped into the house. His face was stern and his eyes were gloomy, as if the anger he had on the rooftop that day had never dissipated.

Zhou Chaolu didn't dare to look at her second brother at all. She kept her little head down, wishing she could curl herself up into a ball.

Shi Huai sighed softly, "Chaolu doesn't want to go abroad, why force her to go?"

When Zhou Baichen heard that his second daughter-in-law was still defending Zhou Zhaolu, he said ashamedly: "Shi Huai, you don't have to speak for Zhaolu."

"I didn't, Dad." Shi Huai said seriously.

"If Chaolu goes abroad, she'll be out of reach. Besides, she's a simple person in a foreign country. What if she gets cheated again? Although I believe Chaolu has learned her lesson and won't make a similar mistake again."

Zhou Baichen was stunned and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Her sister-in-law's trust and forgiveness were like an invisible hand tightly gripping Zhou Chaolu's heart.

Woo woo woo, sister-in-law, how could her sister-in-law be so nice! !

Shi Huai looked at Zhao Yang again, "Let the past be the past, Mom. I'm fine, right?"

Zhao Yang: "But..."

"Oh, there's nothing to worry about!" Shi Huai held Zhao Yang's arm affectionately, "Mom, think about it, if Zhou Chaolu is sent abroad to study alone, she will have to adapt to a new environment, a new school, a new language, and she will have to deal with interpersonal relationships in school all over again. It's troublesome and unnecessary. Chaolu was admitted to Guangnan University on her own merit. Since she wants to continue studying in Guangnan, we should respect her opinion, okay?"

As the biggest victim in this incident, Shi Huai chose to forgive Zhou Chaolu, so what else can they say?

The atmosphere fell into silence, and after a while Zhou Baichen spoke in a deep voice.

"Okay, then I'll listen to Shi Huai and not send Zhou Zhaolu abroad."

Zhou Chaolu suddenly felt happy and looked at Shi Huai with great gratitude.

But before he could be happy for long, he heard Zhou Baichen say coldly, "It's okay not to send you abroad, but you can continue to go to university in Guangnan. But you have to make three rules with us."

Zhou Zhaolu sniffed, nodded heavily, and said in a hoarse voice: "Okay."

"First, all your credit cards will be deactivated, including your family card. You are not allowed to ask your brother, sister-in-law, or grandma for pocket money. Your monthly living expenses are limited to 10,000 yuan, which I will transfer to you via WeChat."

Zhou Chaolu nodded.

"Second, no dating allowed."

Zhou Chaolu agreed immediately.

"Third, I will arrange for bodyguards to accompany you to class, dinner, and home."

The last condition was hard for Zhou Chaolu to accept.

After all, she's an adult and needs her own private space! Being constantly monitored by bodyguards, what's the difference between her and a prisoner? What will her classmates think of her then?

The bodyguard is right next to me, so I guess everyone will stay away from me, right?

Zhou Chaolu didn't respond for a long time, and just sat quietly in her seat with a bitter face.

Shi Huai could certainly understand Zhou Chaolu's mood at the moment. After all, no one wants to have a pair of eyes spying on them from behind.

Seeing Zhou Chaolu didn't answer, Zhou Baichen's face was cold and gloomy: "In that case, then you-"

"I--" Zhou Chaolu opened her mouth and interrupted Zhou Baichen.

But as soon as she said the word "I", she hesitated to continue.

At this moment, she was like a little ant that couldn't find a hiding place in the rainstorm, helpless and fragile.

Shi Huai: "Since Zhaolu doesn't want to be watched by bodyguards, let's ask the students from Guangnan University to help us watch over her."

"After all, being a bodyguard is a bit of a nuisance and attention-grabbing. No one wants to be around a young lady who's under constant surveillance."

"That's true, but if we don't let the bodyguards watch over Chaolu, what if this naughty kid does something wrong again?" Zhao Yang sighed deeply.

You can't pay Chaolu's classmates to look after her, right?

Suddenly, Shi Huai had an idea.

"By the way, I have a younger brother who is also attending university in Guangnan. Perhaps we can ask him to help look after Chaolu for us."

When Zhou Baichen heard that Shi Huai had a younger brother who went to the same university as Chao Lu, his expression became a little better.

"His family runs a martial arts school, so they're more than capable of protecting Chaolu."

Shi Huai's younger brother is extremely powerful and is also a sophomore at Guangnan University. He is a perfect match for the job.

Zhao Yang's eyes lit up, but then he thought of something and started to worry again, "Will that affect my brother-in-law's studies?"

"No." Shi Huai waved his hand. "He has already completed his university courses by self-study. He only needs to go there for exams. He is now setting up a game studio."

At this point, Shi Huai's eyes narrowed into a smile, and he solemnly introduced himself to Zhao Yang, Zhou Baichen, and the others. "His name is Lang Shuxuan, he's a year older than Chaolu, and he's twenty this year. He seems to be quite talented. The small games he creates are all top online hits. He also just established his own studio in the second half of this year."

As soon as work was mentioned, Zhou Xu came over. As soon as games were mentioned, Zhou Jibai no longer had a stern expression and also came forward to ask about Shi Huai's general situation.

"I don't know much about games either. I heard he recently came to Changjing to look for investors. How about we find a chance to schedule a meeting?"

"It's better to do it today than to wait for another day. Let's do it today." Zhou Jibai said.

"OK!"

…

Lang Shuxuan was called by Shi Huai to a restaurant to wait.

I never expected that Sister Shi Huai’s reward for thanking me would be so generous!

Lang Shuxuan, Zhou Xu, Zhou Jibai and others had a brief chat.

As soon as the dishes were served, the two brothers decided to invest in Lang Shuxuan's game studio.

But the prerequisites have also been stated.

"You have met my sister before. She is not very discerning and has met the wrong person. She will continue to study at Guangnan University. Please take care of her." Zhou Jibai took the initiative to pick up the red wine glass and raised it.

Lang Shuxuan stood up, deliberately lowering his head as his glass clinked with Zhou Jibai's: "As I should."

Lang Shuxuan had a clear idea in his mind.

He also vaguely heard about what happened between Yan Hao and Zhou Chaolu. The Zhou family must be afraid that this silly girl would do something stupid or sick again. After all, who would want to see their precious daughter being bullied?

When he thought of what had happened to Zhou Chaolu, he could only smile bitterly, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.

So, Lang Shuxuan is now not only Shi Huai's neighbor's brother, but also Zhou Chaolu's personal bodyguard.

Well, now I really become the school beauty’s personal bodyguard.

There is no way, after all, the Zhou family is his client now.

When Lang Shuxuan wanted to set up a game studio, his old-fashioned family disagreed and no one was willing to give him financial support.

Except for the eldest brother Lang Jingxuan.

Although he doesn't play games, he will do his best to support himself.

Although Lang Jingxuan only took over the martial arts gym in the past two years, the Langshi Martial Arts Gym's century-old foundation and reputation were already well-established. It now operates a nationwide chain, but the majority of the gym's finances are still managed by my parents.

Lang Jingxuan was a well-known master in the industry, and many people lined up to invite him to the association for exchange, or to poach him and steal him away to become a guardian treasure for their own dojo.

However, most of the work Lang Jingxuan took was for charity, and with a small share from the martial arts school, he could only make a few hundred thousand yuan a month. He gradually saved up a lot of money, and to support his brother, he even took out his own savings.

But it's still not enough.

There is still a big step to success.

Especially when Lang Shuxuan was desperate for cash, he could only sell a few small games he had made at a low price. A few days later, when he saw that the small games were going viral online, he was so excited that he jumped up and wanted to compete with his brother.

After being hit by a series of punches from Lang Jingxuan, he immediately became obedient.

Unexpectedly, Sister Shi Huai's husband is from the top wealthy family in Changjing!

It also helped me attract investment!

The price is to protect the girl you like.

How can you lose games every day! How can you have children crying every day!

…

There is still a month left before the final exams at the university, so the Zhou family asked Lang Shuxuan to help take care of Zhou Chaolu, and only then did they feel a little relieved.

Zhou Chaolu has been in a very depressed mood recently, with no expression on her face.

Just as she was in a daze, she suddenly felt a chill on her face.

As soon as she looked up, she met Lang Shuxuan's eyes.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Chaolu asked politely.

Lang Shuxuan handed Zhou Zhaolu a bottle of iced cola and said, "Have some happy water."

Zhou Zhaolu pursed her lips and took it. She lowered her eyes and said softly, "Thank you."

With some time before landing, Lang Shuxuan would actively find topics to chat with Zhou Chaolu. Although Lang Shuxuan was usually quiet, he wasn't as dull and reserved as Lang Jingxuan. On the contrary, he was quite talkative when it came to socializing. He just didn't feel like talking much.

Lang Shuxuan asked, "Have you reviewed recently?"

Zhou Chaolu was originally amused by Lang Shuxuan and the corners of her lips curled up, but as soon as Lang Shuxuan finished speaking, the smile disappeared from her face and she fell silent in an instant.

Seeing Zhou Chaolu remain silent and lower her head with a gloomy face, Lang Shuxuan understood.

"Tomorrow, the library."

Zhou Zhaolu was overwhelmed when she heard that she had to study: "Huh? Can't we wait for two days?"

"No." Lang Shuxuan said decisively.

Zhou Zhaolu curled her lips: "Why?"

Lang Shuxuan leaned lazily against his seat and said calmly, "The Zhou family took the initiative to invest in me, and their only request was that I take good care of you."

"That doesn't mean I have to listen to you in everything!" Zhou Chaolu retorted dissatisfiedly.

"You can talk to your dad, your mom, your eldest brother, and your second brother." Lang Shuxuan smiled.

Zhou Zhaolu: …………

demon!

A total devil!

I know that what she fears most now is facing the elders in her family!

Fortunately, I had my elder and younger sisters-in-law to help me, otherwise I would be a sinner in the eyes of my family! There was no room for me to stay in the country, and I could only be packed up and thrown into Country A.

Lang Shuxuan continued, "Tomorrow morning at ten o'clock."

"Ah!? So early?!"

"Hmm?" Lang Shuxuan raised his eyebrows slightly. "Any objections?"

Zhou Zhaolu met his smiling eyes, the corners of her mouth twitched twice, and she immediately said in a cowardly tone: "No, hahahaha, no opinion."

After getting off the plane, Lang Shuxuan was responsible for carrying the luggage, and Zhou Chaolu only needed to follow her with two cups of milk tea.

After safely delivering Zhou Chaolu to the door, Lang Shuxuan turned around and was about to leave.

The next moment, the corner of his clothes was tugged.

He glanced sideways at Zhou Chaolu.

"Something's going on."

"That..." Zhou Chaolu bit her lip lightly and hesitated for a long time.

Lang Shuxuan simply turned around again and stood face to face with her, "Is there anything else, Miss?"

He deliberately prolonged the last word "Miss" with a hint of joking.

"Can it be changed to eleven o'clock? Ten o'clock is too early and I can't get up." Zhou Chaolu's beautiful eyes flashed with anticipation as she stared at Lang Shuxuan.

Lang Shuxuan turned his face away and looked away, "Then how do you usually get to school early in the morning?"

Zhou Zhaolu scratched her cheek uncomfortably, "Before, it was that guy... who would wake me up."

"Tsk." Lang Shuxuan raised his eyebrows and made a "tsk" sound.

Zhou Zhaolu pursed her lips and clasped her hands together: "Please, please."

"I'll wake you up at ten in the morning."

Zhou Chaolu's eyes sparkled: "Okay!"

"I live downstairs from your house. Come to me if you have any problems." After saying that, Lang Shuxuan threw an elevator card to Zhou Chaolu.

"My front door has a password lock. I'll send the password to your phone later."

Zhou Chaolu was a little surprised.

I didn't expect Lang Shuxuan to live downstairs from my house! ?

But without thinking too much, Zhou Chaolu nodded like a chick pecking at rice and agreed.

At ten o'clock the next morning, exactly one minute more than one second later, Lang Shuxuan called.

Zhou Zhaolu was still sound asleep when she received the call. Lang Shuxuan called her out to get up, and his voice muffled, "Hmm, sleep for another ten minutes."

Lang Shuxuan: "I'm at your door."

Zhou Chaolu turned over and threw her phone aside.

After a while without any response, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Zhou Chaolu buried herself in the quilt and pretended not to hear.

The shrill doorbell sounded like a ghost haunting her, and the ringing would not stop until she got out of bed.

Finally, Zhou Chaolu couldn't stand it anymore, and went down barefoot to open the door angrily.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Lang Shuxuan wearing a white sweatshirt and carrying a black schoolbag. His youthful image was very pleasing to the eye, especially when I saw him early in the morning. It made me feel less grouchy when I woke up.

Lang Shuxuan stood in front of Zhou Chaolu with breakfast in his hands and said calmly, "Miss, get up."

After saying that, he stuffed the breakfast into Zhou Chaolu's hand.

Zhou Chaolu was still a little confused. She blinked her eyes and made way for Lang Shuxuan, motioning him to come in and wait for her.

"Excuse me." Lang Shuxuan was well-educated and polite.

"No, don't bother."
