Chapter 81 Extra: First Meeting [Part 2] Teasing My Wife Very...
"I'm sorry..." He didn't know what else to do except saying this.
"Actually, I brought you a gift when I came here." He tried to make amends for himself, hoping to regain a little bit of favor.
"Didn't you say you weren't prepared?" the boy asked.
Pei Shuyu wanted to say, "That's because I thought you were also selected, and I wanted to get closer to you." But now the situation was different, and he said, "I've prepared it..."
The boy stared at him for a moment, then held out his hand. "Where's the gift?"
As if to deliberately embarrass him, Pei Shuyu unconsciously clasped his hands. He couldn't take out the gift, "The gift... is lost..."
“…”
"Sorry...I...I'm going out now."
The boy suddenly leaned in closer and sniffed Pei Shuyu's neck. "What's that smell? Are you wearing perfume?"
If Pei Shuyu had lowered his head, he could have kissed the man's forehead. He immediately took a step back, creating some distance. Was he using too much...
"Don't the bottles and jars in your house smell good after using them?" Pei Shuyu was a little embarrassed. It seemed that the first impression he left on others was a little too bad.
"Bottles and cans? How many bottles did you use?" asked the boy.
Pei Shuyu thought for a moment and answered seriously, "Every bottle."
The two men poured him a little from each bottle.
The boy couldn't help but laugh out loud, clapping his hands to the side, "Come and sit."
Pei Shuyu hesitated. He was so fragrant, he wondered if he would be tainted. He stood there and asked, "Don't you like the smell of perfume?"
"No," the boy said, not forcing him. Seeing that he didn't move, he asked, "My name is Lu He'an. What's your name?"
"Pei Shuyu."
"How do you write it?" Lu Hean stood up, took out a notebook from the bookshelf, handed him a pen, and pointed at the blank space. "Write it here."
This one already had a name on it: Lu Hean's. Luckily, there were teachers at the orphanage teaching them how to read. Pei Shuyu carefully wrote each stroke beneath Lu Hean's name. After writing, he double-checked it before handing it back.
Lu Hean looked at it and read it again, "Pei, Shu, Yu..."
"Um."
He closed the notebook and pretended to hand it to Pei Shuyu: "Here you go."
"For me?" Pei Shuyu hesitated a bit. Seeing that Lu Hean didn't seem to be joking, he carefully reached out to take it. "Thank you..."
Just as his fingertips were about to touch the notebook, Lu Hean turned his wrist and the notebook slid lightly from Pei Shuyu's hand. He pointed to the bookshelf and said, "Please put it back on the bookshelf for me."
Pei Shuyu's hands froze in mid-air, and the tips of his ears turned slightly red.
It turns out it wasn't for him... He was just being too sentimental!
Pei Shuyu took the notebook and put it back.
Seeing him like this, Lu Hean smiled so hard that his eyes curved into crescents. He turned around, took out a brand new notebook from the bookshelf and stuffed it into his arms: "This is for you. Let's go to class together tomorrow?"
Pei Shuyu held the brand new notebook, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the smooth cover, and nodded slightly.
Lu Hean seemed to remember something, "Oh~ You can't find a room, right? Otherwise, just sleep in my room. I'll ask Uncle Lin to take you to find a room tomorrow morning."
The corridor lights outside the room were voice-activated, and because the violin stopped playing, Pei Shuyu looked out the door again. The corridor was pitch black. Compared to the room, the difference was quite large.
Well, I kind of don't want to go out.
"Okay, it's settled." Lu Hean didn't give him a chance to refuse. He closed the door and pulled him to sit on the bed. "Let's go to sleep."
The two of them took off their shoes and climbed into bed. A small table lamp sat on the bedside. It was crescent-shaped, with a star hanging from it. It emitted a faint, warm yellow light.
Pei Shuyu tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. He discovered that he seemed to be somewhat attached to his bed.
"Can't you sleep?"
"Yeah." Pei Shuyu turned his head and found that Lu Hean was also asleep. He looked at him and asked, "Why are you not asleep either?"
"I was a little happy," Lu Hean said, "so I didn't fall asleep."
Happy? Would you be happy sleeping in the same bed with someone else? What kind of special custom was this? Pei Shuyu didn't understand but expressed respect.
"If you can't sleep, shall I read you a story?" Lu Hean said.
"Storybook?"
So, Lu Hean sat up and picked up a storybook that he had read to pieces, and began to read it in a childish tone.
Lu Hean didn't stop until he heard steady breathing next to him. Pei Shuyu seemed asleep? He moved over to take a look and found that he was indeed asleep. He closed the storybook, turned off the night light, and lay back, hugging Pei Shuyu like a stuffed toy.
There were many people at home, but Lu Hean felt like he was the only one there. His father was busy with work, his father was busy with experiments, and the servants were not to be mentioned.
So when he heard that his father wanted to find a partner for him, he was really happy.
This person was dressed like this and accidentally walked into his own room.
That's his.
Lu Hean hugged Pei Shuyu tightly and fell into a deep sleep.
In the early morning, Pei Shuyu felt that he was a little breathless, and he had been lying flat on his back, unable to change positions freely like he did on the bed in the orphanage, which was a bit uncomfortable.
He habitually gets up early.
"Hmm..." His hand groped around his body and touched another man's arm, which was around his neck.
I finally understood why I was suffocating...
"Lu He'an, Lu He'an..." Pei Shuyu patted his hands, "Wake up."
Lu Hean frowned. He was indeed a light sleeper. But he had hugged a very comfortable pillow last night and really didn't want to wake up. He didn't want to face the huge house alone, and he didn't want to be alone.
Pei Shuyu shouted a few more times, but it was no use. He turned his head and looked out the window. It was just dawn, so it must not be dinner time yet. Lu Hean could still sleep a little longer.
But his arms were wrapped tightly around him, making his presence felt too strong. Pei Shuyu took a few deep breaths and turned over. He pulled the quilt away a little, but he quickly tucked it back in.
Now he could get out of bed, he lowered his head to look for his slippers. He didn't have any, maybe they were with Lu Hean?
He crawled carefully on his knees, trying to step over Lu Hean.
"What are you doing?"
Pei Shuyu maintained his hurdle stance, standing above Lu Hean, and his eyes met with the awakened Lu Hean. He saw his own shocked expression in Lu Hean's clear eyes.
He was so frightened that he missed a step and slid off the bed with a "bang".
…
Today is rare.
Before the servants had time to call the young master to get up, they saw the young master get up by himself, followed by the young man who had just come in yesterday.
Steward Lin had just walked out of the empty room. Seeing them, he asked in confusion, "Master, what are you doing?"
"He got lost last night and slept in my room." Lu Hean answered briefly.
"Oh, I see." Butler Lin shut up.
Lu Hean suddenly turned around and looked at Pei Shuyu behind him, "Are you going to wear this to school with me?"
How could I possibly wear this set of cartoon pajamas to school?
Butler Lin immediately understood and hurriedly asked someone to take Pei Shuyu downstairs to change clothes.
The schools Lu Hean attends all have uniform custom-made school uniforms, and even accompanying students have to wear school uniforms.
Pei Shuyu went to change it obediently.
The servants began to bring breakfast to the table. Lu Hean sat in the main seat and looked at the food without much appetite.
Butler Lin poured him some milk.
"Uncle Lin," Lu Hean suddenly said, "Give me a copy of Pei Shuyu's information."
"OK."
Although he didn't know what the young master was going to do, he just had to do it.
He had just taken two steps when he heard someone say from behind: "By the way, find the gift Pei Shuyu wanted to give me and put it in my room."
"……OK."
Pei Shuyu came out soon. He was wearing the same custom-made school uniform as Lu Hean. The dark blue suit jacket made his shoulders stand out straight, and his white shirt was neatly tied with a tie.
When he walked to the dining table, Lu Hean couldn't help but take a few more glances. The change was really too great.
The cartoon pajamas he wore last night made him look silly, but now he looks like a completely different person in this outfit. His temperament is clean and neat, and he has shed his silly look.
"Drink this." Lu Hean pushed a cup of warm milk in front of him.
Pei Shuyu took it obediently and drank it in small sips.
The breakfast was very sumptuous, but he ate with extreme caution, fearing that he would make any indecent noises.
During a break from eating, Lu Hean flipped through the information Butler Lin had handed him. It turned out Pei Shuyu was a few years older than him, yet their height was similar. This must have been due to long-term malnutrition. This discovery made him frown unconsciously.
Your toys will get sick in the future? That's not okay.
After dinner, the two went to school together.
The moment he stepped onto the campus, Pei Shuyu's eyes lit up. The broad tree-lined avenue was flanked by red brick teaching buildings, and the playground was covered in lush green grass—a scene unlike anything he had ever seen in the orphanage.
Pei Shuyu sat next to Lu Hean in the classroom. As the teacher began lecturing, he found himself completely unable to keep up. The complex formulas and unfamiliar knowledge left him feeling overwhelmed.
In the orphanage, no one taught them these things. They were just taught the basics and that they could communicate with others.
"Pei Shuyu, you answer this question." The teacher called his name again.
He stood up awkwardly, stammering and unable to answer.
He heard a few suppressed chuckles from all around him, and his ears instantly turned red. The feeling of being laughed at made him very uncomfortable.
After class, Lu Hean gently touched his arm: "What don't you understand? I'll teach you."
"Trouble..." Pei Shuyu was very sad. He was obviously the study partner, but why did it seem like Lu Hean was the one?
From that day on, every night, the light in Pei Shuyu's room was always on until very late.
One night, while inspecting, Butler Lin spotted a faint light coming from Pei Shuyu's room. He gently pushed the door open a crack and saw Pei Shuyu hunched over his desk, concentrating on working on a problem.
Ah... he's a very hardworking child...
I guess I shouldn't have hidden his gift last time. The candy looked like it was of inferior quality. It hurt to say this, but Mr. Fu wouldn't allow it in his house. Especially the food for the young master, it had to go through layers of inspection. If it was discovered, I didn't know if the child would be able to stay.
Originally, he planned to hide it and return it to Pei Shuyu when he had time to go back to the orphanage.
I didn’t expect the young master to come and ask for it on his own initiative.
The housekeeper did not disturb Pei Shuyu's studies, but quietly closed the door and left.
Surprisingly, Pei Shuyu has a strong learning ability.
He had previously lacked systematic instruction, but once he had someone to guide him, he quickly grasped the essentials. In less than a month, he was already able to keep up with the class progress.
In math class that day, the teacher called Pei Shuyu's name again. This time, he stood up calmly and fluently recited the steps and answer to the problem.
"Excellent," the teacher praised with surprise, "You've made great progress during this period."
Pei Shuyu's lips curled up unconsciously. This was the first time he had smiled in class since the start of the school year. Lu Hean, who was sitting next to him, looked at him sideways and smiled too.
The toy I liked turned out to be really good.
On the way home from school, Pei Shuyu picked some wild flowers, which looked very beautiful.
"What are you picking these for?" Lu Hean asked as he stood by and looked at him.
"For Uncle Lin." Pei Shuyu blinked. "Thank you for always walking lightly when passing by my room at night. This flower smells very fragrant. I hope he likes it."
Lu Hean was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help laughing, "Uncle Lin has a poor sense of smell, it's useless to give it to him, he can't smell the fragrance."
"Is that so?" Pei Shuyu held the flower in his hand. "Then forget it..."
Lu Hean took it from him and said, "Then give it to me."
-----------------------
The author has something to say: Now Xiao Lu feels like he has got a toy he likes very much.
It has nothing to do with love! Why would a child talk about love?
It's like a left-behind child who suddenly gets a playmate because he lacks love.
