Chapter 42 Chapter 42 [Lu Hean: Why haven’t you come yet...
Two weeks passed in a flash, and Pei Shuyu's leg injury was almost healed. The doctors were all impressed, saying that he was indeed an S-level alpha with such terrifying recovery abilities.
He can finally return to the team and train with his comrades!
Pei Shuyu felt relaxed all over.
Oh, right, I should share this good news with Lu Hean. He sent the message and waited for a few minutes, but Lu Hean didn't reply.
Pei Shuyu understood that he might be busy.
Because Lu Hean had previously accompanied him on a trip to Haicheng, he'd taken a long leave. He'd managed to stay on track with his group work, but he'd fallen behind on his individual classes. Furthermore, the school had high hopes for him and was planning to have Lu Hean participate in some military drills early to help him acclimate.
So during this period, Lu Hean spent more time in school every day.
Except for coming back to sleep at night, even eating is at school.
Pei Shuyu had a lot of free time, except for the occasional craving for food, when he'd suddenly call out, "Lu He'an, time for dinner." No one responded for a long time, and then he remembered, "Oh, Lu He'an's gone to school." He looked at the little dolphin pendant hanging on his phone, feeling it was a little lonely.
He thought about what he had promised the dean's mother about bringing his boyfriend back. He thought about everyone in the dormitory, but couldn't find a suitable candidate.
Somehow, Lu Hean's face suddenly appeared in my mind.
Pei Shuyu was startled and shook his head, trying to get Lu Hean out of his mind. He'd been too idle lately, so he was thinking about all sorts of random things...
"Tsk!" Pei Shuyu took out his phone, "Why not just ask Yu Wei to act it out?"
"Hey, Brother Pei? What are you doing?"
Yu Wei didn't know where she was, but there was always a crackling sound from the other end of the phone. Every time Pei Shuyu heard this sound, he was afraid that his broken phone was going to explode.
"When are you free these days? I want to ask you for help with something." Pei Shuyu asked him.
"Huh? What? Wait a minute, it's too noisy here. I'll go out and talk to you."
"Zicen, stay here and be good. I'll be back soon."
There was a rustling sound from the other end, and the sound of electricity disappeared.
After they got outside, Yu Wei finally spoke, "What's the matter?"
Pei Shuyu thought for a moment and said, "It's okay..." He hung up the phone.
It turns out that finding someone else doesn’t work.
Forget it, I already promised Lu Hean last time, it's not good to go back on my word. Don't let Lu Hean throw a tantrum in the end and nothing will get done.
After he retrieved the phone, it was still silent—Lu Hean still hadn't replied to his message. He turned off the phone, left a message for Lu Hean, packed his bags, and returned to the Saifan dormitory.
Life goes on as usual, with boring training, reviewing, eating and sleeping every day.
These days, Xiao Qingyang felt that something was wrong with Pei Shuyu.
Absent-minded.
I even picked up the wrong kettle when drinking water, and they had to remind me to notice.
When the instructor turned his head, Xiao Qingyang elbowed Pei Shuyu, "Hey! What are you thinking about?"
Pei Shuyu was caught off guard and swayed slightly, but he quickly stood up straight again. Li Liang was looking for some information in the front and didn't notice their small movements behind him.
"I didn't think anything." Pei Shuyu responded softly while looking straight ahead.
"Stop bragging. You're in a daze. I heard from Yu Wei about the relationship between you and your cousin." Xiao Qingyang glanced at him mysteriously.
Pei Shuyu felt a bit of a headache and looked to his right, at Yu Wei, the loudmouth. Just as he was about to retort, Xiao Qingyang beside him screamed.
A sandbag was thrown from the front of them and hit Xiao Qingyang in the face.
Li Liang stood on the steps, with a few sandbags in his hands, which he tossed around.
"We've been training for so long, and you still haven't changed your bad habit of whispering to each other! Xiao Qingyang!"
"arrive!"
"Step out! Circle the playground 20 times!"
"ah?!"
"30 laps."
"Yes..." Xiao Qingyang ran listlessly, like an eggplant hit by frost.
Li Liang looked at Xiao Qingyang's back and threw the sandbag on the ground casually. "You have been in Saifan for a long time. Before, it was all simulation training. Now you can do some serious work." Li Liang made a gesture, and the assistant coach behind him distributed a stack of information to them.
Pei Shuyu took the information and started looking through it.
After seeing that everyone had received the information, Li Liang continued, "We just received a D-level mission that requires you to protect President Lu's eldest son. It will be next month, and I have given you all the information. You have already taken the disguise courses, and you will be divided into groups according to the dormitories. When the time comes, you can decide for yourself what identity to use to infiltrate."
The information wasn't long and could be read in two minutes. But what puzzled Pei Shuyu was why there was nothing written in the information about this protected person?
Pei Shuyu raised his doubts, "This document doesn't include the name or photo of the protected person. It only contains some introductions to the guests at the charity dinner and a map of the dinner."
"That's right. Because this person was kidnapped before, for safety reasons, he stayed away from the Alliance Center for many years and only returned this year. So this information was not disclosed." Li Liang pushed up his sunglasses. "However, they gave us a clue. There is a mole on the neck of our target, near the collarbone."
…
Pei Shuyu stared blankly at his phone. This was his first mission. The mission itself was simple, but the challenge was finding the target they needed to protect. They couldn't just pick everyone's collar off.
Even if they were brave enough to strip it, the people attending the banquet were all well-known figures, and they would die if they stripped anyone.
"What kind of clue is this..." Pei Shuyu felt annoyed and turned off his phone.
Lu Hean hadn't replied to his message for three days, and he had gone to see him once after training, but his roommates said Lu Hean was very busy recently and had no time to see him.
If she doesn't have time to see him, she must be checking her phone, which she doesn't even check. Could it be that she's avoiding him on purpose because the one-month deadline is up?
Pei Shuyu patted his face and told himself not to think too much. He should complete the task first and then go to Lu Hean to ask for clarification.
Xiao Qingyang finally finished running 30 laps and had to rely on Fu Zhouxing to carry him to walk. He said breathlessly, "Thanks, brother, I'm lucky to have you."
Fu Zhouxing rolled his eyes at him and said, "If you weren't lying on the ground, tugging at my trouser legs, no one would bother with you."
"Hey, hey, what's the matter? In the end, you still cared."
Pei Shuyu stepped forward to help him and asked, "What do you think about this mission?"
Pei Shuyu had a feeling something was amiss about this D-ranked mission. With over a thousand people attending the banquet, even excluding the women, it was still a significant number. How could he accurately locate his target among these remaining people?
"Disguise yourself as someone who can come into contact with the guests." Fu Zhouxing continued.
Pei Shuyu nodded. "Waiter, security guard, or just pretend to be a guest. I can't pretend to be a guest, so who among you can play the role?"
Xiao Qingyang was amused when he said this, and hugged Fu Zhouxing tightly, "Isn't this a professional match?" He released his arm from Pei Shuyu and pointed at Fu Zhouxing, "Fu Zhouxing is just right, let him go."
Fu Zhouxing frowned in disgust but said nothing. Seeing no objection, Pei Shuyu thought for a moment, "Then I'll pretend to be a waiter. I've done that before, so I have experience."
There was only one security guard left. Xiao Qingyang rolled his eyes and smiled at Fu Zhouxing. "Perhaps, you are still in need of a female companion?"
After a few seconds of silence, Fu Zhouxing grabbed Xiao Qingyang and pressed him against the tree. "Are you going to die?"
Pei Shuyu was no longer surprised, but Xiao Qingyang was just a mouthful. The two of them had been playing and fighting for a long time. He leaned against the tree and asked, "Where's Yu Wei? I haven't seen him in a few days."
"Didn't he take leave to go back and visit his relatives? He mentioned it in the group and said he would bring us some local specialties. What's wrong with you these days? You seem absent-minded." Xiao Qingyang tried hard to break free from Fu Zhouxing's shackles and asked him.
Yes, he seems to be a little unmotivated in doing anything these days.
While he was thinking, the phone in his pocket vibrated twice. Seeing the unfamiliar number, Pei Shuyu thought it was a sales call. After answering, he said without thinking, "Sorry, I'm not buying anything."
After waiting for a while, a low laugh came from the other end. Pei Shuyu finally realized, Lu Hean? He turned to look at the two people fighting behind him and walked away.
"Brother Shuyu, do you miss me after not seeing me for a few days?"
He also knew he hadn't seen her for a few days, and Pei Shuyu wouldn't have gotten angry if he hadn't mentioned it. Who else would disappear for days like him, not returning home or replying to any messages?
"I don't want to." Pei Shuyu answered in what he thought was a very cold and ruthless manner.
"It's so sad. I missed you so much."
Oh, without even thinking, he called and didn't even reply to a single message. Pei Shuyu kicked a pebble with his foot. The pebble hit the wall and bounced back. He simply stepped on it and crushed it.
"I heard from your roommate that you have been busy these days." Pei Shuyu still wanted to ask.
"I saw the message you sent me, so I came to see you as soon as I finished my work. Please come to the door to meet me. I can't get in without permission."
Lu Hean stood at the door and looked inside. "I just asked, and you can go in if you have family permission. Brother, please give me permission too, otherwise it will be troublesome for me every time I come to you."
"It's not that easy to get access permissions. I just happen to have something to ask you. Find a place to sit down. It's tiring to stand. Wait for me to come find you." Pei Shuyu hung up the phone after saying that.
When he turned around, he met the inquiring eyes of Xiao Qingyang and Fu Zhouxing.
Pei Shuyu thought about it and put away his phone, "Uh... I have something to take care of. We'll talk about that task when you come back." After saying that, he was about to leave.
"Is it your cousin's boyfriend? Tsk tsk tsk, it must be tiring to stand there~ Wait for me to come find you~" Xiao Qingyang teased.
What cousin boyfriend? I really want to sew Xiao Qingyang's mouth shut. Pei Shuyu finally defended himself, "Don't talk nonsense. He is not my cousin. I was the one who made it up last time." After saying that, he planned to go find Lu Hean.
"Pei Shuyu." Fu Zhouxing shouted.
"Hmm?" Pei Shuyu stopped and asked blankly, "Do you need me to bring anything?"
"No." Fu Zhouxing put his hands in his pockets, "I just want to remind you that we need to know every guest thoroughly in order to complete the mission better."
"I know." Pei Shuyu stood a few meters away from them, but his mind was always thinking about Lu Hean who was a few hundred meters away.
Fu Zhouxing looked at Pei Shuyu meaningfully, then lowered his head after a few seconds. "Forget it, let's talk when you come back."
Pei Shuyu stared blankly at the two men's departing backs, confused as to why Fu Zhouxing would tell him such a simple truth. Or did Fu Zhouxing have other intentions? Before he could think about it, Lu Hean's messages kept popping up.
These are all very cute puppy emojis.

【Lu Hean: Why haven’t you come yet~】
[Lu Hean: This dog is wronged.jpg]
Pei Shuyu smiled, he stopped thinking about it and rushed to the gate.
Lu Hean really took his words to heart and sat directly in the security booth, chatting with the security guard. When Pei Shuyu arrived, the two were still chatting happily.
Pei Shuyu approached, knocked on the window, and called out, "Lu Hean."
Lu Hean, who was chatting away, noticed the noise outside the window. He politely said goodbye to the security guard and rushed to Pei Shuyu. He sniffed the scent of cedar and didn't get up for a long time.
"Brother Shuyu, I miss you so much."
The security guard was still eating melon seeds and staring at them.
Pei Shuyu's face flushed a little, and he quickly patted his back, "Get up, get up, it's only been a few days since we last met."
Lu Hean looked up reluctantly, "Huh, he's alive again"
Hiss, this sounds so strange.
