Chapter 74 Each one more capable than the last
Sit on a bench in the yard.
She bent down, took off her high heels, and rubbed her ankles.
The pearl-studded shoulder strap slipped down from the rounded shoulder to the arm.
Before she could pull it up, a slender, warm finger hooked the shoulder strap and moved it to her shoulder.
Startled, Luo Shu dodged to the side and instinctively covered her collar.
She looked closely and saw that the man in front of her was tall and slender, dressed in all black, blending into the night.
Her gaze slowly moved up from the man's strong, muscular thighs, all the way to his face.
He curled his lips into a smile, took off his coat, put it on her, and then slowly sat down beside her.
The two were very close, and she could feel him intentionally or unintentionally moving closer to her.
"Why are you here too?" Luo Shu was both surprised and delighted.
"I'm afraid you'll get drunk and get on the wrong bus."
Yu Zhan reached out and brushed the strands of hair from her shoulder behind her back.
She tightened her coat, feeling his remaining body temperature inside, her face heated up and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
Shen Yan's mouth is indeed blessed.
He'd come running if she just made one phone call.
She always thought this man just wanted to marry a wife and that would be enough. Judging from his usual unapproachable demeanor, he didn't seem like the type to be love-struck or doting on his wife.
But it felt like he became a completely different person after we got the marriage certificate.
Yu Zhan tilted his head and looked at her, his eyes falling on her red cheeks, "Go home?"
"Don't you need to go to the hospital?"
"They are out of danger and a caregiver has been hired."
"Oh." She nodded slightly.
"Then go home?"
"Um."
Yu Zhan bent down and picked Luo Shu up in one swift motion, hooking her high heels with his fingertips as he did so.
Luo Shu instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, tilted her head, and buried her face in the crook of his neck.
She greedily inhaled the man's scent; it was still that comforting aroma.
She seemed used to him holding her like that.
He went through the back door; there weren't many people there.
"Shen Yan is still at the banquet."
She suddenly remembered there was someone else.
“I’ve already called a designated driver for him,” said Yu Zhan.
——
Back at the apartment, he carried her directly to the bathroom.
"You wash first, I..."
Luo Shu struggled to walk out, but he pulled her back, saying, "Shu'er, the water bill is very expensive..."
She wasn't wearing shoes; she was barefoot, stepping on his feet. The hot water soaked their clothes.
"Untie..."
He paused, his voice extremely hoarse, as if it had been ground by grit.

He held her tightly and soon fell asleep.
Luo Shu looked at the man so close to her, touched his stubble that hadn't been trimmed for two days, and frowned.
She chuckled, reached out and touched his lips, carefully tracing the man before her.
He slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with tears.
Luo Shu was stunned for a moment. The man's breathing was so steady that she thought he was asleep. How could he pretend so well?
Yu Zhan mimicked her, gently brushing his fingertips across his lips in response.
When it was over, Luo Shu lay on him, listening weakly to his rapid heartbeat.
He reached out and tucked her hair behind her ear, placed a passionate kiss on her forehead, and gently patted her shoulder.
Luo Shu was too lazy to pay attention to him and fell asleep in a daze.
Early the next morning.
Leng Xiangyi woke up after receiving a call from the hospital.
Yu Zhan went to the hospital again.
Aunt Xu just happened to be back from vacation.
Luo Shu asked her aunt to prepare pork bone porridge and some appetizers.
I also made a meal, packed it up, and drove to the hospital.
Following the VIP ward number Yu Zhan gave her last night, she quickly found it.
"Brother Yu, you scared me to death..."
Leng Xiangyi held Yu Zhan's hand and kept crying.
Yu Zhan frowned and withdrew his hand imperceptibly.
"Thank goodness you're here, otherwise I don't know what I would have done..."
"You just woke up, don't cry, get some rest."
He walked aside and made a phone call to Shen Yan.
Leng Xiangyi looked at his back. He had broad shoulders and a narrow waist. The veins on his wrists, which were tucked into his trouser pockets, were bulging. He looked extremely sexy.
She smiled, recalling the message Wenmo sent her that night.
When she heard that Wen Mo was going abroad on a business trip for a few days, she immediately found an open place and fainted on the spot.
Passersby called emergency contacts.
I called Wenmo immediately, but he was on a plane and didn't answer.
The second one he called was to Lu Min, but Lu Min was in another province, so he called Yu Zhan.
She had heart surgery a few years ago, so she occasionally had some minor problems, which they were used to.
Luo Shu, who was standing at the door, pursed her lips, forced a smile, and went inside.
"You must be tired from crying, have some porridge."
Have some porridge, then cry slowly!
Luo Shu had some doubts about the authenticity of the fainting, but she couldn't dismiss her entirely just because of her arrogance.
Therefore, the due courtesy should still be given.
As soon as she walked in, Yu Zhan turned around and looked at her with delight in his eyes.
She glanced at his eyes, then quickly looked away.
"Sister Luo Shu, you've arrived..."
Leng Xiangyi looked at her with a wronged expression, without a trace of the venomous look she had given her when she asked her to move out of the apartment that day.
"You're such a grown-up, why are you crying? Do you think you're still a little kid who can get candy by crying?"
Luo Shu looked at her with a doting gaze, her face seemingly saying: Don't pretend, I'm not blind.
Yu Zhan chuckled, sensing the barbed undertone in her voice.
Just like when he asked her, "Do you want to be Mrs. Yu?" she had such a fiery temper.
He lent a hand and propped up the frame of the bed.
The two of them took the food out of the thermos together.
"Sister Luo Shu, I was really frightened. I'm sorry, did I disturb you that night..."
I don't know where she got the courage to ask such a question.
She was obviously doing it on purpose.
When Yu Zhan rushed over that night, the clear hickeys on her neck drove her crazy!
Every breath feels like dripping blood!
But at the same time she was also very happy.
This not only prevented Yu Zhan from attending Su Ting's birthday party, but also clearly ruined their plans.
Yu Zhan's face darkened and he felt a lump in his throat.
Luo Shu, however, was not so easily swayed by her words.
She brazenly leaned close to Leng Xiangyi's ear and whispered in a voice loud enough for all three of them to hear:
"Good sister, don't tell me. Your brother is in great health. I was so tired that night, but thankfully he came to keep you company in the end, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get up the next day."
Her sweet, gentle voice was like a spring breeze that filled her ears.
Luo Shu's face turned red after she finished speaking. She calmly took out the spoon and handed it to her.
Leng Xiangyi's face, which had just regained its color, immediately turned pale.
She never expected that Luo Shu, who looked so timid, was actually so arrogant at heart!
After listening, Yu Zhan tugged at his tie, unbuttoned a button, and his Adam's apple bobbed wildly.
Goodness, they're all so good at it...
But she didn't have that same stubbornness she showed last night when I asked her if she was good, biting her lip and refusing to say a word.
Now, in the eyes of outsiders, I keep praising...
This made him suddenly think...
