Chapter 140 Explanation
Lin Shutang wiped her face and went to lie down on the bed with her phone. After the screen shook, the angle changed to looking up slightly, and the red on her neck that she had not seen before was now visible.
There was an abnormal red spot on her fair skin. It must have been a mosquito bite, and the area around it had been scratched to reveal some red blood.
Li Yansheng: "There's medicine in the second drawer of the bedside table. If it itches, apply a little, don't scratch."
Li Yansheng had noticed early on that her skin was delicate, and even the slightest pressure would easily leave marks. Now, looking at the red patch on her neck, it looked like it was about to break.
Lin Shutang adjusted the video call page, stood up and used the phone as a mirror, and saw that his neck had turned pink without him noticing.
After a moment's thought, she said, "How can you be sure this is a mosquito bite? Maybe it was left by someone else?"
Hearing her talking incoherently again, Li Yansheng knew the crux of the matter and stared at her with interest in his eyes.
When Lin Shutang felt a little embarrassed by being looked at, he spoke slowly: "I had something to talk to Jiang Beiqian about during the day. I was going to call you after hanging up the phone. But I thought you must have something to say to your classmates, so I didn't call."
Lin Shutang hadn't been truly angry to begin with, but after hearing Li Yansheng's explanation, the last bit of discomfort in her heart disappeared. Honestly, Li Yansheng's explanation undoubtedly touched her heart. She had previously read a passage online that roughly stated that many men like to keep everything to themselves, under the guise of doing what's best for the woman, without explaining anything to her, ultimately leading to many unnecessary misunderstandings.
This problem didn't seem to exist with Li Yansheng. At least, Lin Shutang hadn't noticed it yet.
Thinking of this, Lin Shutang looked up and looked at him through the screen.
He probably hasn't had a good rest in recent days. He has obvious fatigue around his eyes and there is a noticeable stubble on his chin. It seems that this incident is not a small matter.
Thinking of this, Lin Shutang naturally thought of his complicated family relationships, and distress unconsciously appeared in his eyes.
She said, "Go to bed when you're all right for now. Go now, I'll watch you."
This was the first time she had spoken to him like this, the concern in her eyes was obvious, and her tone was not harsh.
It was the first time a young girl showed such concern for him, and Li Yansheng couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Then, he heard her say, "You usually teach me well, but when it comes to me, I get confused."
When Lin Shutang was working on her thesis late at night, Li Yansheng told her, "There's never enough work to do. You need to get enough rest before you'll have the energy to do it the next day."
Li Yansheng's expression warmed up, and he said slowly, "Okay."
Lin Shutang watched him enter the lounge and lie down on the bed, then she placed her phone next to her pillow. She had thought about watching him sleep like this, but she hadn't expected that she would fall asleep before Li Yansheng did. When she woke up again, it was already late at night.
At around four in the morning, there was another knock on the bedroom door. Lin Shutang stood up alertly and picked up the baseball bat that Li Yansheng had left behind the door.
Only after hearing the voice outside, "Madam, it's me," did my tense nerves relax.
She opened the door and saw Aunt Lu standing at the door, looking more anxious than before.
"Ma'am, the husband told you to pack up and he will send someone to pick you up right away."
Lin Shutang had just been woken up from his sleep and was still a little confused. Afraid that he had heard it wrong, he checked again: "Now?"
"Yes."
"Okay, I understand."
Lin Shutang turned around and walked to the bed, picked up the phone on the pillow, and found that the phone had run out of battery and was turned off.
She put her phone on charge and started packing.
