Chapter 12 Master
◎I will protect you well◎
Lu Yishen hadn't expected things to progress so quickly. After a brief pause, he replied, "Of course, I can, but won't you confirm our engagement first? I have the engagement letter my adoptive father left behind..."
"It doesn't matter." Qin Shu shook her head when she heard that.
"Huh?" Lu Yishen didn't react at first.
"It doesn't matter if we don't have an engagement, as long as you are willing." After all, as long as she can protect Lu Yishen nearby, Qin Shu doesn't care what the reason is.
This made Lu Yishen stunned for a moment, then he nodded and returned to the question of meeting relatives and friends: "My parents' side...is not very close, you don't have to pay attention to them, but there are a few friends I would like to introduce you to."
"Okay, I have a friend here that I want to introduce to you."
"Okay, do you want to set a date to invite them to dinner?"
"I have no objection. It mainly depends on you, busy man. When are you free?"
"I'm resting these two days." Lu Yishen reviewed his schedule before replying.
"Well, since we're moving today, how about setting it up for tomorrow night?"
"good."
Qin Shu was amused when she heard this: "Why do you always say it's good? Is there anything bad about it?"
"It would be bad if I didn't agree to your request." Lu Yishen replied seriously.
Qin Shu was amused again: "I think we should get to know each other better. Do you have anything to ask me?"
Lu Yishen thought seriously for a while before asking seriously, "What's your shoe size?"
"Pfft." Zhou Yin had just come out of the kitchen when he heard Lu Yishen ask this question. He couldn't help laughing out loud.
After all, Lu Yishen's serious expression, as if he was asking about some important secret, coupled with the question he asked, was really too inconsistent.
"Sorry, sorry, you guys continue. I just wanted to say that we're ready to eat." Zhou Yin saw that although Lu Yishen still had a handsome look on his face, his slightly tense fingertips and his posture of sitting upright looked awkward, so he consciously went back to the kitchen.
However, Qin Shu seemed to feel that Lu Yishen's pretending to be calm was a little annoying, so she reached out and hooked Lu Yishen's tense fingertips.
"?" Lu Yishen was a little confused. He lowered his head to look at his fingertips that were touched by Qin Shu. It felt like they were gently pricked by a feather and it was a little itchy.
This made Lu Yishen subconsciously want to curl up his fingertips. As if sensing his thoughts, Qin Shu's fingers suddenly moved up along his slender fingertips, finally stopping at his palm, and holding up his entire left hand: "Of course I can tell you what my shoe size is, but - how about exchanging it for the data of your finger circumference?"
Qin Shu's voice was very low, and her tone rose a little when she said the last sentence "OK", which made Lu Yishen feel for a moment that the feather was not teasing his fingertips, but the tip of his heart, making him feel tingling and numb.
Lu Yishen didn't know how to react for a moment, so he was stunned.
Qin Shu waited for a long time but didn't get a reply from Lu Yishen. Then she simply turned around, put her hands on the sofa beside Lu Yishen's waist, leaned forward, and said to Lu Yishen, "Are you so reluctant?"
Lu Yishen looked at Qin Shu's face that suddenly came closer. From his perspective, he could just see her smiling eyes and her lips that looked extremely moist and slightly watery after drinking the orange juice.
Lu Yishen himself didn't know why he subconsciously put his hands on the sofa at his waist, as if if he didn't do this, his hands would be out of control. But he never expected that his hands would be pressed so precisely on the back of Qin Shu's hands that were supporting his side. After realizing this, Lu Yishen quickly withdrew his hands: "Sorry, I'm sorry..."
Before Lu Yishen could finish his words, Qin Shu, who wanted to pull back her hand, had her palm touch his waist because of Lu Yishen's movement. At this moment, Lu Yishen's whole body stiffened and he fell backwards on the sofa. Qin Shu also lost her balance because of Lu Yishen's movement and she suddenly fell on Lu Yishen's chest.
"Boom boom, boom boom."
The sound of a strong heartbeat rang in her ears, and Qin Shu didn't know why, but she suddenly felt relieved.
Maybe because this person is still alive and well in front of her, she will not fall into reincarnation again, will not die again and again, and will not gain and lose again and again.
Thinking of this, Qin Shu felt a little happy, so for the first time she called this name seriously: "Lu Yishen."
"Hmm?" Lu Yishen was still a little at a loss, but after hearing Qin Shu's unprecedented serious tone, he immediately became serious.
"I will protect you well, so you must stay alive."
Qin Shu's words were too abrupt and inappropriate, but because her expression was too serious and earnest, Lu Yishen didn't ask her why she suddenly said this. Instead, he nodded solemnly and agreed, "Okay."
"besides--"
"what else?"
"My shoe size is 37. Now - it's your turn to tell me your finger size." Qin Shu said as she climbed up from Lu Yishen, and even reached out to pull Lu Yishen.
Lu Yishen's ears were still a little red, but his face was calm: "I don't know, I need to test it."
"Is that so?"
Qin Shu took Lu Yishen's left hand and clasped their fingers together.
"!" Lu Yishen felt that the places where Qin Shu touched were slightly warm. Just when he didn't know what to do, the terminal communication ringtone suddenly rang, breaking the deadlock.
Seeing this, Qin Shu quickly let go of Lu Yishen's hand and signaled him to answer the call.
His hands suddenly felt empty, and Qin Shu's body temperature was fading away, which made Lu Yishen a little uncomfortable. He clenched his left hand subconsciously, and then suddenly came to his senses. He nodded to Qin Shu and walked to another room to answer the call.
Qin Shu looked down at her hands and spread her fingers slightly, as if trying to recall the width of Lu Yishen's fingers.
After a while, Lu Yishen came out, but his expression was a little apologetic.
"What's wrong?"
"A friend needs me to help out. I might have to stay on a desolate planet in the Beta Quadrant for a few days. I won't be able to have dinner with you or meet friends and family tomorrow."
Qin Shu was understanding: "It's okay, there's plenty of time to eat later."
Lu Yishen also felt a little regretful: "I'm really sorry."
"It's really okay. If you're going to the Desolate Planet, have you packed your things? Do you need my help?"
"No, my things are all in the other house. My assistant will help me pack them up. He should be picking me up in ten minutes and taking me to First Star Port."
"Ten minutes, wait a minute." Qin Shu suddenly ran to the kitchen after hearing this. After a while, she hurriedly ran out with a plastic bag and handed it to Lu Yishen. "You haven't had lunch yet, right? Take this with you on the way. Don't worry, considering you want to maintain your figure, we chose low-calorie foods when we bought food."
"...Okay." Although Lu Yishen is now a first-line actor, he has always been very easygoing with himself. It can be seen from the fact that there are not many decorations in his house. He works so hard that he forgets to eat and sleep. Even if he has time, he will not go out for a big meal, but just deal with it casually, as long as he doesn't starve to death.
That's why his agent specially arranged for him to have a foodie assistant. Besides being diligent, this assistant also had another great thing: he got hungry quickly. Lu Yishen could handle it when he was alone, but when there were others around, he would prioritize them. To prevent his assistant from working on an empty stomach, he also ate more regularly.
But this time, others gave him priority in order to prevent him from going hungry.
Lu Yishen felt a little warm in his heart: "Thank you."
The assistant came very quickly. In less than ten minutes, he had already called the terminal to urge Lu Yishen to go downstairs. Qin Shu and the others had originally thought that if the master was not there, they would just leave together, but they did not expect Lu Yishen to suddenly say -
"Who said the master is not here? Aren't you still here?"
This sentence made Qin Shu stunned. When she wanted to say something else, Lu Yishen had already left with his "love lunch".
Zhou Yin was amazed by this way of getting along. "I originally thought you were the one with higher attack power and the initiative, but it turns out that Emperor Lu is not much behind."
Qin Shu wanted to refute, but found that she really couldn't refute it.
At this time, Xu Wen brought up the prepared hot pot and ingredients, and called out to the two of them, "Hurry up and eat."
The two of them hurried back to the restaurant. It must be said that it was a strange feeling that the host had left but the first-time guests were still eating hot pot in the host's house. It made people want to find topics to talk about, otherwise the atmosphere would be too weird.
"By the way, I originally thought that Emperor Lu would be shocked after seeing the Monkey King, but his expression was too calm, wasn't it? So calm that it was a little abnormal." Zhou Yin asked the question in his heart.
"According to the people protecting him, the air circulation system in Lu Yishen's car had been tampered with, and there was some kind of hypnotic gas in it. Lu Yishen actually couldn't hold on any longer after passing through the toll booth, and his consciousness was a little fuzzy. When they lifted him out of the car, he was briefly unconscious for a few minutes before waking up. So he completely regarded the fact that he saw the Monkey King as a dream, and we don't even need to explain it to him." Xu Wen always knew the most information.
"Hypnotic gas? His car was not an accident after all?" Qin Shu on the side frowned when she heard this.
