Chapter 601 Lu Qingye: I want to be closer to you

Meng Chuyuan couldn't help but chuckle: "Do you have to think about me before you go to sleep, Mr. Lu?"

When Lu Qingye said he missed her, she was actually happy.

But Lu Qingye’s aggrieved words “I didn’t fall asleep” inexplicably hit Meng Chuyuan’s funny spot.

"Don't you miss me?" Lu Qingye's voice was light, as if he had no emotion.

"Hmm..." Meng Chuyuan thought for a while. She slept well last night. It was the rainy season, so it was easy to fall asleep. The bed still smelled of Lu Qingye. "I slept on your pillow last night. Does this count as missing you?"

She usually slept next to Lu Qingye, and it became a habit over time. So even if Lu Qingye was on a business trip, she would inadvertently lean towards him after lying down.

On the other end of the phone, Lu Qingye raised his lips and said with satisfaction, "Okay."

Meng Chuyuan took a bite of the dumpling and found it a little hot, so he simply put it back in the bowl and waited for it to cool down before eating. He took the opportunity to chat with Lu Qingye: "Aren't you going to sleep yet?"

Lu Qingye didn't feel sleepy at all. Besides, they had only been chatting for less than three minutes. "Let's chat for a while."

"All right then."

"Start a video."

"Oh." Meng Chuyuan did as he was told.

Soon, they switched from voice to video call.

Meng Chuyuan placed his phone on the table, with his upper body captured in the camera.

After a while, Lu Qingye also adjusted the camera.

Seeing Lu Qingye leaning against the headboard, Meng Chuyuan was stunned for a moment, "Why are you sitting up?"

He explained: "I've been lying down for a long time, sit down for a while."

Meng Chuyuan pondered for a moment and asked, "Is it cold over there?"

"Yeah, it's still snowing."

"Then cover yourself with the quilt and don't catch a cold." The dark blue pajamas that Lu Qingye was wearing were packed for him by Meng Chuyuan that night. They were not too thin but not too thick either, and had average warmth retention.

After hearing her words, Lu Qingye reached out and lifted the quilt up, covering his chest and pressing the quilt to his armpits. Meng Chuyuan didn't like it, so she asked him to lie down and cover himself with the quilt again.

After Lu Qingye lay down, he felt that it was inconvenient to hold his mobile phone.

"Can't you just put your phone on the nightstand?"

Lu Qingye: "I want to be closer to you."

“…”

Meng Chuyuan felt that the dumplings should not be so hot anymore, so she picked up the chopsticks again and started eating in front of Lu Qingye.

Lu Qingye asked her what she was going to eat for lunch and what plans she had for the next few days, wanting to know more about her schedule.

"I'm going to see an art exhibition tomorrow." A painter whom Meng Chuyuan has admired for a long time is coming to Xucheng to hold a personal exhibition, and the exhibition will be held tomorrow.

Lu Qingye got a little excited reflexively, "Who are you going with?"

Meng Chuyuan: "Only myself."

Suddenly, Lu Qingye seemed to understand something. "So you don't want to go on a business trip with me, just to see the art exhibition tomorrow?"

She admitted generously: "Yeah."

“…” It turns out that he is not as important as an art exhibition.

The video chat between the two lasted for a long time.

Lu Qingye watched Meng Chuyuan eat breakfast through the screen, and then watched her wash the dishes and hang out the clothes...

Finally, he felt sleepy and fell asleep.

Meng Chuyuan stared at the video screen for a long time. When she hung up the video, she gently said "good night" to the sleeping Lu Qingye.

The next morning, Meng Chuyuan drove to see the art exhibition.

Because she was not sure whether she could take photos during the exhibition, she brought a notebook to take notes.

It happened to be a Friday, so there weren't many people visiting the exhibition in the morning.

Meng Chuyuan came to the exhibition hall alone.
