1217 Shen Tangtang, Don’t Tell Me You Don’t Want to Take Responsibility For Me?
It was Lu Huaiyu’s phone.
He tilted his head and saw the number on the screen. Then he got up and answered the call.
Yi Bin’s voice came from the other end.
“Second Master, the things you ordered have been sent to Xi Garden.”
!!
Shen Li raised her head from his embrace. She could vaguely hear something, but it was not clear.
Lu Huaiyu touched her face.
“Yes.”
He gave a few more brief replies and ended the call.
Shen Li blinked.
Lu Huaiyu’s lips curled up slightly.
“It was Yi Bin on the phone.”
She suddenly realized.
“Was it something to do with the company?”
Lu Huaiyu smiled but did not reply.
Considering that he had been injured and taken some time to recuperate, a lot of work must have acc.u.mulated at Lu Corporation for him.
“Then, does Second Brother want to go back there?”
Lu Huaiyu lowered his head to look at her. Then, he took the book from her hand and turned it over. He raised his eyebrows slightly, with a dangerous look in his eyes.
“Shen Tangtang, are you chasing me away?”
He had seen through her thoughts. She quickly grabbed the quilt and blinked.
“I wouldn’t dare to.”
“What do you not dare to do?”
He was all too familiar with this guilty look, and he could see through it with a single glance.
His hand fell on her waist.
“Do you still have the heart to think about this? It looks like you’ve rested enough.”
The memories of the night before flooded her mind, and she felt her legs begin to ache and tremble again. She immediately begged for mercy.
“No, no! I’m very sleepy and tired! It’s true!”
As she spoke, she closed her eyes tightly as if she was about to sleep.
Lu Huaiyu chuckled and kissed her on the lips.
“Alright, then sleep for a while more.”
…
Shen Li fell asleep very quickly after she closed her eyes, probably because she had been put through so much by him.
The sky was already dark by the time Lu Huaiyu woke her up.
She opened her eyes, still feeling a little dazed. She asked in a daze, “… What time is it…?”
Lu Huaiyu carried her up.
“It’s 6:30 p.m. It’s time for you to wake up and have dinner.”
She was still sleepy so she murmured on his shoulder, “… No, I want to sleep…”
“Alright,” Lu Huaiyu replied, “You can sleep after eating.”
Shen Li was too lazy to move, so she allowed him to carry her to the dining room. She snuggled further into his arms and was coaxed by him into letting him feed her dinner.
She was so comfortable being served by him that she finally recovered a little bit of energy. She tilted her head and looked up at his handsome face.
The corners of her lips curled up into a playful arc.
“Lu Huaiyu, you seem to be getting better at taking care of people. You’ve improved a lot.”
Her feet had barely touched the ground, and he had done everything perfectly.
Without needing to say anything, he already knew whatever she wanted and had executed it all well.
He laughed.
“For a little ancestor like you, of course, I have to do my best.”
She leaned over and pecked him on the side of his face, as she complimented, “If only you were always so gentle.”
Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
Was she implying that he was too fierce in bed?
She coughed lightly.
Was it that obvious?
Lu Huaiyu said, “I’ve always been eager to learn.”
She was stunned.
She did not know what he meant until she was pressed onto the sofa again.
“Then you’ll just have to check if I have improved in other aspects.”
She finally realized what he was up to and raised her leg to kick him.
“Lu Huaiyu!”
This movement caused her to frown in pain.
He held her ankle and kissed her, his breath hot.
“I said you could go to bed after you ate.”
She had finished eating, now she could go to bed.
She tried to struggle at first, but her voice gradually softened and she started to cry out again and again.
…
Shen Li never knew that it was such a scary thing to have her daily routine reversed.
How could there be someone who could be so active for an entire night but then still have the energy to take care of her daily necessities? At night, he would still be full of energy.
The curtains were drawn most of the time. Other than being able to bask in the warm autumn sun in the afternoon, the rest of the time was almost indistinguishable from day to night.
This situation continued until the fourth night, the last day of her time off.
Lu Huaiyu finally restrained himself. After carrying her out of the bathroom, he kept his promise for the first time and placed her back on the bed without touching her.
Even so, Shen Li’s physical strength had been severely exhausted over the past few days. She did not even have the strength to move her fingers.
She lay on her bed and silently counted the days.
He got into bed and lay down beside her.
“Lu Huaiyu.” She was weak and her voice was hoa.r.s.e. “I still have to go to cla.s.s tomorrow.”
“Yes, I know.”
Lu Huaiyu tucked her in.
“Have a good rest.”
She was on the verge of tears.
So, what he meant was that she could finally take a break.
“You should take another day off tomorrow.” He continued.
The smile on her face had not even spread before it froze.
Then, she turned her neck stiffly, unable to believe what she had heard.
“Lu Huaiyu, do you know what you’re saying?”
She did not know where she suddenly found the strength to sit up, but she gritted her teeth and glared at him.
“Impossible!”
Lu Huaiyu seemed to find her reaction particularly interesting. He smiled and looked at her for a while before saying, “Is it really impossible?”
“It’s impossible!”
She wanted to go back to cla.s.s!
She wanted to go to the laboratory!
She wanted to read the literature, and observe and a.n.a.lyze the data!
Thanks to Lu Huaiyu, she would probably be traumatized by things like drawing and watching movies for a long time.
“Then, when do you think I should go and see teacher Shen?”
He suddenly said.
Dead silence.
Shen Li was dumbfounded.
See, see Yingluo
In an instant, there was only one thought left in her mind.
…Finished.
She had told Shen Zhijin that she would be taking care of Lu Huaiyu for the next few days, but in the end, his injuries had already recovered and he was not affected at all.
And then-
Now?
How did things end up like this?
Lu Huaiyu sat up straight and slowly raised his eyebrows.
“Shen Tangtang, don’t tell me you don’t want to take responsibility for me?”
Shen Li’s eyes widened in confusion. When she realized what he was saying, she looked at him in disbelief.
This man!
He still had the nerve to say such things?
you already promised me back in Hong Kong. It’s too late to regret it now. Lu Huaiyu said.
“…”
Probably because she never thought that he would counter-attack her like this, Shen Li was so choked up that she couldn’t say a word.
Lu Huaiyu asked again,
“Should I take leave tomorrow?”
She opened her mouth.
“Yingluo.”
He held her waist again and stuffed her back into the blanket.
“Have a good sleep and rest your mind.”
Shen Li,”Yingluo.”
So this was the reason why he had stopped talking tonight.
…
The next morning, Shen Li and Lu Huai returned to the Heaven’s Wall city together.
The two of them went upstairs.
Shen Li stood in front of the door and took a deep breath.
Lu Huaiyu glanced at her with a smile.
“Shen Tangtang, why are you even more nervous than me?”
Shen Li,”Yingluo.”
Lu Huaiyu raised his hand and rang the doorbell.
Soon, footsteps could be heard.
The door was opened.
A handsome and clean face appeared behind the door.
Shen Zhijin first saw Shen Li, and a hint of surprise flashed through her eyes.
Tang Tang, don’t you have cla.s.s this morning? ”
Then, he saw Lu Huaiyu beside her.
Lu Huaiyu met his gaze and smiled.
“Teacher Shen, can I talk to you?”
Shen Zhijin’s gaze swept across Shen Li’s face, who had her head slightly lowered, and his hand on the door handle slowly tightened.
