Chapter 93
Shi Yu didn't expect Wayne to call him at this time.
Ever since Wayne lost contact with her, Shi Yu often missed him, but she gradually got used to the days without Wayne. After all, it was common for them to be apart.
She pressed the answer button in confusion, then dazedly heard Wayne's muffled voice on the other end, "Open holographic permissions." Then, a slightly distorted projection of the red-haired Alpha appeared before her. His emerald eyes lowered as he looked at her, his face handsome and sharp. He seemed to have just finished a workout; his sweat-soaked black vest clung to his muscular abdomen, and his red hair was slightly disheveled and plastered to the side of his neck.
Perhaps because he still had a lingering impression of some of her behaviors, Wayne unintentionally raised his forearm the moment the hologram was turned on. When he realized that the girl was just looking at him without making any movement, he couldn't help but frown slightly and glanced at her several times.
"What are you daydreaming about?"
What……?
Shi Yu didn't react.
Seeing that the boy's brows were getting more and more furrowed, his raised arms never lowered, and he looked gloomily as if waiting for something, Shi Yu was stunned for a moment, then ran over silently and threw himself into his empty arms like a homeless kitten.
It was clearly just a projection, without the touch of skin and without warmth, yet she felt so satisfied and at ease that she wanted to cry.
"Wayne..." She carefully controlled the distance between them, not moving her body through him, and slightly raised her head to try to touch his chin. As if feeling that one word was not enough to express her longing, Shi Yu called him softly several times, "Wayne..."
Wayne silently tightened his arms around her waist, his green eyes slightly closed.
The two remained in this position for a while without speaking.
After a while, Shi Yu retreated with a flushed face, then lowered her head a little awkwardly. She had just hugged her without noticing. The girl's reserve made her not know what to say. Instead, Wayne spoke first, his emerald eyes lingering on the girl for a few seconds, and asked, "How are you doing recently?"
Shi Yu shook her head and then nodded. She wanted to say, "Everything is fine," but she couldn't say it.
"...and you, Wayne?"
Shi Yu glanced at him, then quickly lowered her eyelashes, afraid of being noticed. "How are you? Are you done?"
"Um."
Wayne responded lazily, and the pair of black boots stopped in front of Shigure, but Shigure found it difficult to look up and look at him.
"After a while, I'll ask Rain for permission to come see you," he said.
Shi Yu felt a little bitter in her heart. She took a deep breath and said, "After a while, I might go out for a trip."
"Where are you going?" Wayne raised his eyebrows, and his green eyes, which seemed to be hiding a shadow, slowly swept from the other person's red earlobe to her drooping eyebrows. Shi Yu still refused to look up at him. He loosened his wrist, then half squatted down, with his forearm casually resting on his knees. Alpha fixedly caught her evasive gaze.
"Can't we go later?"
The young man asked her in a slightly hoarse voice, with no ups and downs in his tone. It sounded slightly like the same firm command as before, but Shi Yu knew that this was just Wayne's speaking habit.
She hesitated for a moment and shook her head: "It's already been arranged, I have to go."
"How long will you be gone, and when are you free?"
"When I come back... I'll probably have it." Shi Yu replied with tears in his eyes, "I spent my summer vacation away from home. It will take more than a month, or even two months, for me to be back after playing."
Wayne didn't say anything, his emerald eyes reflecting the Omega's face deeply. It wasn't until Shi Yu couldn't stand his gaze that he heard him say calmly, "I know."
"But I'm still free now!" Shi Yu tried to ease the atmosphere, trying hard to put on a smile and looked up at him, "Let's chat, talk, or--"
Wayne stood up, patted the seam of his trousers, and gave Shi Yu a questioning look.
"Dating!"
Shigure blushed and looked at Wayne expectantly, "It's okay to stay in projection mode. Let's go on a date... okay?"
Her eyes were too bright and soft. Wayne paused, looking away as if he wasn't interested, but asked indifferently, "What date?"
"I'll show you my living environment and tell you what I usually do!" Shi Yu said happily, then puffed out his chest, a little proudly, "I can show you a few of my skills in the middle. I've mastered a lot of skills, such as cooking and making models!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wayne crossed his arms, raised his eyelids and looked around the hall where they were. He just said "hmm" and didn't say yes or no, but Shi Yu took it as his agreement!
She returned to the bedroom holding the tablet so Wayne could see more of the interior. When she reached the door of the room on the second floor, Shigure was about to open it when Wayne suddenly said, "Your room? That's where Rain lives."
The boy's words were calm, and Shi Yu didn't think too much about it. He pointed to the back of the corridor and said, "Because Mr. Rain often works in the study, he usually rests in the room next to it."
The study is next to the balcony and far away from Shi Yu's room.
Wayne didn't say anything else. When Shi Yu entered the room, the first thing that caught her eye was a pile of models scattered chaotically on the carpet. She scratched her head embarrassedly: "I forgot to clean them up. You just have to make do with them, Wayne..."
Wayne glanced at the ground. His handsome, sharp features showed no emotion, and he looked uninterested. After a moment's observation, he walked to the carpet and gestured to Shi Yu, "Come and take this."
"What's the matter!"
Shi Yu walked over to him, picked up a part and looked at it carefully, "Is there anything wrong?"
"Take it apart and look at the wiring," Wayne instructed her, then frowned and commented, "You spent too much time on the exterior, and the inside is a mess."
“…”
The smile on Shi Yu's face gradually disappeared. She suddenly looked up at Wayne, said nothing, and quickly removed the shell.
Wayne didn't notice anything unusual. He took a look and instructed her to pull out the two lines directly. Shi Yu pursed her lips and did as she was told. Her expression when she pulled out the lines couldn't help but look a little angry.
At this moment, Wayne finally glanced at her.
"What's next?" Shi Yu asked in a muffled voice, not looking at him. "Is there anything else you want to teach me?"
Unlike the admonitions Ed gave Shigure when he was teaching her, Ed would not actually make bad comments to her for no reason - she really had a headache with mathematics and had no talent for it. The occasional cold admonitions mostly happened when he explained it to Shigure many times and Shigure did not understand, and then made the same mistakes again and again.
Not so with Wayne.
Perhaps the educational environment he had been exposed to since childhood was different from hers. Wayne seemed to put himself and him on the same level, and the first thing he saw was her shortcomings. Moreover, he seemed to have no experience and awareness of teaching people. He didn't give her any praise, and his cold attitude towards guidance hurt Shi Yu a little.
Her original intention was actually to share it with him...
“…”
"Can."
Shi Yu's somewhat angry look caught the Alpha's eyes. Wayne paused, shifted his gaze from the Omega back to the model, and spoke in a brief and indifferent tone, revealing some almost imperceptible unnaturalness.
"What is possible?" Shi Yu insisted.
"You did alright."
He finally had the consciousness to comfort people.
Shi Yu's lips curved slightly, then immediately pursed. She felt it wasn't enough, and she wanted Wayne to praise her more directly! But then she remembered Wayne's indifference during training, and his lack of attention during their occasional interactions. She felt that this was already Wayne's exceptional performance, and she couldn't ask for more.
"It's okay." She muttered, as if agreeing with his evaluation of herself -
But she was actually quietly commenting on Wayne!
The author has something to say:
I'll take a break today and not write too much. I'll finish my date with Wayne tomorrow!
Wayne has never had any contact with Omegas or Betas since he was a child. As a young master growing up in a vacuum environment, he usually either mocks or talks nonsense, and he actually doesn't know how to communicate with the people he likes.
