Chapter 69 Shouldn't this be considered domestic violence?
The voices of Master and Ji Linzhou faded into the distance, and the danger was finally over.
As Shen Li breathed a sigh of relief, her other senses became increasingly clear.
For example, because she had to hold Lu Yanchuan down, the size difference forced her to rely on her physical strength, so she was practically leaning her whole body against Lu Yanchuan.
At this moment, the interaction of body temperatures was very obvious. Shen Li could clearly feel Lu Yanchuan's body temperature warming her skin through his clothes.
The palm that had been lightly brushed by his tongue felt as if it had been scorched by hot coals.
I feel hot flashes.
"Alright, alright," Shen Li said. "They're gone."
As she spoke, she instinctively tried to straighten up. Just then, a hand gripped her lower back.
Not only did they prevent her from straightening up, they also held her lower back, making her press even closer to them!
"!" Shen Li's eyes widened suddenly as she stared at the man in front of her. "Lu Yanchuan, you... let go!"
Lu Yanchuan leaned against the tree trunk, his eyes slightly narrowed, and smiled casually, "You were the one who started it."
That's true, but there were unavoidable circumstances before. Shen Li's ears felt a little hot.
Her voice softened, becoming somewhat pleading, "Could you... let go of me?"
But Lu Yanchuan didn't answer. He still held her lower back and pulled her into his arms.
Shen Li was somewhat resigned to her fate. Fine, if she wouldn't let go, she wouldn't let go.
It can't be that I'm missing a piece of meat, can it?
A moment later, she heard a man's deep, slightly husky, magnetic voice coming from above her.
"Eat Mala Xiang Guo? Don't you like it?"
Shen Li was taken aback when she heard this.
The topic jumped around a bit too quickly, which really caught me off guard.
Shen Li blinked. "What?"
"Didn't you say you'd have dinner with me?"
"Yes, but..." Shen Li was somewhat surprised, "Spicy hot pot?"
How did he know she liked it?
It was as if she could see the doubt in Shen Li's face.
"I remember you were looking around at the entrance of a spicy hot pot restaurant that opened near the school gate a long time ago?" Lu Yanchuan said.
Shen Li was somewhat dazed; Lu Yanchuan's words instantly pulled her memories back to many years ago.
The school gate he was referring to was back in their middle school days.
Spicy hot pot... she remembered.
It wasn't because she was particularly craving that newly opened spicy hot pot restaurant, but because she had heard that Lu Yanchuan was inside, and Shen Li wasn't sure.
If he were really inside, Shen Li thought she would go in too, find a table close to his seat, and eat something together.
The scenes from my memory gradually became clearer in my mind.
Lu Yanchuan wasn't inside at the time; he just happened to be passing by and saw her looking around outside.
Duan Chen, who was traveling with Lu Yanchuan, was Shen Li's senior in the judo team and recognized her.
Duan Chen: 'What is she doing here...'
Lu Yanchuan: 'You know him?'
Duan Chen: "The junior on the judo team is named Shen Li. She's a very talented and strong girl, the coach's darling. It seems she's preparing for the provincial competition recently. She's aiming for the national team selection."
Lu Yanchuan was much the same back then as he is now; he was carefree and unrestrained, and acted entirely on a whim.
Hearing Duan Chen's words, she curled the corners of her lips into a smile.
Lu Yanchuan: 'Wow, that's impressive? A national-level talent, why is she lingering outside a spicy hot pot restaurant? Should we, as her seniors, treat her to a meal?'
Duan Chen scolded him: "Don't ruin the kid's life! He might be controlling his weight for the upcoming provincial competition!"
But Lu Yanchuan wasn't such an obedient person; he still went over and asked.
Shen Li still remembers that she was looking around at the door to see if Lu Yanchuan was inside, and then she found that he was standing right next to her.
I bent down slightly and looked inside with her.
"Little one, haven't decided which one to eat?"
Shen Li was startled, her heart pounded, and she couldn't even speak properly.
Senior Duan Chen came to the rescue, pulling Lu Yanchuan aside and saying, "Yanchuan, don't bully people."
Lu Yanchuan clicked his tongue. 'Trying to treat a kid to a meal is considered bullying? Forget it then.'
Shen Li managed to escape unscathed, but for a long time afterward, she couldn't tell whether Duan had helped her out of a predicament or ruined her plans.
But at that time, it was only a short period of time.
Shen Li was surprised that Lu Yanchuan actually remembered her. Moreover, he misunderstood that she had been looking at him for so long because she liked spicy hot pot.
“Zhou Yan mentioned that a new spicy hot pot restaurant opened in Bailu Plaza, and it seems pretty good. I asked him to get some to go,” Lu Yanchuan said.
If Zhou Yan were present at that moment and heard this, she would probably point to herself and ask, like in that viral internet meme, "Me?"
Bailu Plaza is one of the shopping malls under Lu's Group, and Zhou Yan was not referring to that particular mall as "okay".
He clearly said that the smell from that store was too strong, and the surrounding businesses had a lot of complaints, so he wanted the shopping mall to handle the matter.
Shen Li's expression froze slightly as she recalled the past.
Before Lu Yanchuan could get an answer, he leaned closer and asked, "Or are you going to cook for me?"
Shen Li suddenly came to her senses, and when she looked up, she met those deep eyes.
"...Spicy hot pot is fine, but I don't have a kitchen here." Shen Li said, looking away.
She gently pushed his chest again, "Can you let go of me now?"
Lu Yanchuan seemed not to hear her, still holding her firmly with one hand, while taking out his phone with the other and dialing Zhou Yan's number.
"Didn't you say that the spicy hot pot place at Bailu Plaza was pretty good? Go get some to go."
Zhou Yan was unusually silent for a few seconds on the other end, clearly pondering when he had said such irresponsible things.
But I also feel that the boss might not be in a position to hear the truth or be corrected right now.
Zhou Yan was silent for only a few seconds before nodding. "Okay, I'll go now. Please wait a moment, you and your wife. There's also a popular dessert shop in Bailu Plaza called Rose Planet Milkshake. I'll bring it over with you."
"This is perfect as dessert for you and your wife, making for a wonderful evening."
Zhou Yan felt that he deserved this annual salary.
Because Lu Yanchuan was holding her in his arms, Shen Li was very close and could hear Zhou Yan's voice clearly on the phone.
The phrase "have a wonderful night" is also very clear.
Shen Li pursed her lips. But before she could say anything, she suddenly realized…
Lu Yanchuan held her waist with one hand.
Holding the phone in one hand.
Shen Li blinked rapidly a few times and then abruptly pushed Lu Yanchuan away!
"My porcelain!"
When Shen Li pushed him down from the tree, the box in his hand fell to the ground.
However, due to the tense situation, Shen Li did not react or notice for a moment.
She hurriedly picked up the gift box from the ground and carefully checked the porcelain inside for any damage.
Lu Yanchuan raised his hand and pressed his aching chest, silently thinking... this should be considered domestic violence, right?
