Chapter 935: I Miss You Very Much Now

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shen Li left Jinshui No. 1 courtyard and drove back to Skyleaf City alone.

The sky was completely dark. Cars were coming and going on the streets, and neon lights were flashing on the roadside.

Shen Li stopped at a traffic light.

Liang Su’s words echoed in her ears again.

‘Ah Li, does Lu Huaiyu know how much you like him?’

It seemed that everyone knew how much Lu Huaiyu liked her.

He had attended parent-teacher conferences for her, helped her buy materials, and spent the cold and hot New Year’s Day in Lincheng with her.

He had waited for her as she sat for the college entrance exams, followed her back to the Capital, given her the ‘Night of the Milky Way’ watch, and also gave her a starry sky lollipop.

His fondness for her was so obvious.

He had done so many things for her, so many that it had made it obvious to everyone.

However…

She thought of the vague memories of the last days of her previous life. She thought of how he had held her gently and carefully. She thought of how he had spoken to her intermittently.

What they did not know was that what they had seen and heard was not everything.

The green light lit up, and Shen Li drove forward.

Lu Huaiyu probably… did not know.

After all, even she herself did not know the answer to this question.

…

The Lu family home. Study room.

Old Master Lu took the medical report and read it repeatedly many times.

It was better than before…

Knock, knock.

There was a knock on the door.

Old Master Lu immediately put his things away into the drawer. Then he raised his head.

“Come in.”

Lu Huaiyu pushed the door open and glanced at the desk.

He had stayed alone in his study for half an hour since he had come back and given the medical report to Old Master Lu.

Calmly, he looked away and asked with a faint smile, “Aren’t we going to play chess tonight?”

Old Master Lu quickly said,”Yes, yes!”

He stood up and took out the chessboard and chess pieces from the cabinet next to him.

Lu Huaiyu sat down in front of him and took the white chess pieces.

The person with the black chess pieces would go first.

“After you,” he said.

Old Master Lu took a chess piece and glanced at Lu Huaiyu. He wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he did not say anything.

He placed a chess piece.

Lu Huaiyu placed his chess pieces without any hesitation.

In the quiet study room, only the sound of chess pieces as they were placed was heard.

Old Master Lu wanted to say something to him, but he was distracted.

Lu Huaiyu played fast and ruthlessly, but every time he was about to kill, he would always give Old Master Lu a chance to live first.

Old Master Lu gradually immersed himself in the game and temporarily put those thoughts aside.

An hour passed quickly and Old Master Lu eventually stared at the chessboard and sighed.

“Just a little bit more!”

Lu Huaiyu laughed and started picking up the pieces.

“It’s very late. You should rest early.”

Old Master Lu held out a finger.

“How about another round?”

Lu Huaiyu did not give in this time and simply rejected his request.

Old Master Lu was unwilling to accept defeat.

“You tell me… You’ve aroused my addiction, but you’re refusing to play with me any longer! Tomorrow, when Ah Li comes, I’ll play with her!”

Lu Huaiyu raised his eyes.

“How many moves do you plan to let Ah Li allow you to make this time?”

Old Master Lu was instantly enraged from embarrassment.

“Then my granddaughter-in-law! If I play chess with my granddaughter-in-law, how can that be called her giving in?!”

That was called sparring!

Lu Huaiyu paused for a moment and finally said, “I’ll play another game with you on one condition. If you play chess with her tomorrow, you can’t regret it.”

Old Master Lu looked at him suspiciously.

“Really?”

Lu Huaiyu picked up a chess piece. His slender and fair fingers were like jade, and the clear and clean white chess piece was clamped between his fingertips. His hands were actually even cleaner and more beautiful than the chess piece.

He said, “It’s my birthday tomorrow. You should at least give me some face.”

Old Master Lu mulled over it for a while.

“Okay!”

Ten minutes later, the winner and loser had already been decided.

Old Master Lu looked at the scattered black pieces on the chessboard and coughed hard.

This, this had been too fast!

He had suffered a loss!

“Cough! Huaiyu, you see, tomorrow will be a rare occasion that Ah Li is able to come here. Why don’t we consider the conditions just now–“.

Before he could even finish speaking, Lu Huaiyu had already stood up.

“That’s all for today. You should sleep early and take care of your health.”

Seeing that he could not refuse, Old Master Lu could only agree. Seeing that Lu Huaiyu was about to leave, he muttered to himself, “Hey, why is it your birthday and not Ah Li’s birthday?”

When would Ah Li turn 20?!

Lu Huaiyu turned around.

“Grandfather, allow me to remind you that I’m only four years older than Ah Li. Also, if you really want to rush anyone, you can try again on Big Brother.

“At his age, he’s already a little advanced in age for marriage and to have a child.”

Old Master Lu became angry at the mention of this.

“Forget it! It’s better to wait for Ah Li to turn twenty.”

He looked at Lu Huaiyu again.

“With your temper, I don’t even know how Ah Li fell for you!”

…

After taking a shower, Shen Li blew dry her hair, sat down in front of the desk, and read for a while.

At 12 o’clock sharp, she opened Lu Huaiyu’s dialog box.

After typing a few words, she decided to delete it. After thinking for a moment, she directly dialed the number.

The call was answered very quickly.

A low and lazy voice came from the receiver.

“Ah Li?”

Shen Li looked at the glass candy jar on the desk.

The dim yellow light spilled down, coating the transparent jar body with a layer of warmth.

She said,”Second Brother, Happy Birthday.”

Lu Huaiyu chuckled softly as he asked her in a low voice,”Didn’t we agree to meet during the day? Why are you staying up so late?”

“It’s your birthday, of course, I have to wish you.”

Shen Li sat hugging her knees, as the corners of her lips curved up to reveal her small dimples.

“Besides, I miss you very much right now.”
