Chapter 135, Helplessness
Zhang Youyou was still imagining herself driving around Y City when she was suddenly asked a question and didn't react at all.
Their eyes met, and Zhang Youyou guiltily turned her head away.
Li Dongshuo had no time to investigate Zhang Youyou's conspiracy; he was thinking about his plans to travel to Y City.
"Zhang Youyou, do you really want to help me?"
Seeing that he didn't intend to pursue the matter, Zhang Youyou's courage surged, and she raised her head and puffed out her chest, saying, "Of course!"
"In that case, let's go back tomorrow. You can tell Grandpa we're going to Y City, and I'll book the tickets and hotel. How about that?"
"No problem!" Zhang Youyou slapped him, then realized, was it too fast? But whether it was fast or not didn't matter, the important thing was to drive the car back.
"Do you want to test drive the car today? We can drive back tomorrow!"
Li Dongshuo frowned and asked in return, "What kind of car? The high-speed rail will do."
Seeing that his plan had fallen through, Zhang Youyou panicked, "Why take the high-speed rail when you have a car? Don't you want to try out my new car?"
Sensing something was wrong, Lee Dong-seok leaned closer, staring into her eyes, and demanded, "Why did you insist on driving home? Is there some kind of scheme behind this?"
Zhang Youyou looked embarrassed, glancing left and right before mumbling, "What scheme do I have? I, I just, I just want you to drive your new car and take pretty girls out!" To avoid giving him away, she added, "Isn't that a good thing?"
Lee Dong-seok would be a fool if he couldn't see through such an obvious conspiracy.
"Of course not! Why would I drive your car on a date with a beautiful girl? Besides, would my brother even agree to me driving your car?"
Zhang Youyou retorted, "What does it have to do with him? He even asked you to teach me how to drive!"
Lee Dong-seok rolled his eyes at her; only his brother could put up with someone like her. However, as childhood friends, he still felt it necessary to teach her some basic knowledge about men.
Li Dongshuo leaned closer to her, put his arm around her shoulder, and said earnestly, "Zhang Youyou, there's something you might not know: sometimes you have to take a man's words the wrong way!"
Zhang Youyou blinked her innocent big eyes and asked back, "You mean what you just said was the opposite of what you meant?"
Lee Dong-seok collapsed.
Oh well, let her keep this innocence.
Letting go of her and moving aside, Lee Dong-seok said seriously, "Forget it, you should just stay with my brother!"
Zhang Youyou felt that he was subtly criticizing her, but unfortunately, she had no evidence and had to give up.
The two discussed how to tell their grandfather about the trip when they got home, and also considered how to ask Ji Yuxuan to meet up. Before they knew it, it was dark, and they were hungry after talking for so long. So Zhang Youyou ordered takeout, and Li Dongshuo transferred the money to her.
Just as Zhang Youyou finished selecting her items and was about to place her order, a WeChat message from Li Donghao popped up on her screen.
"Let's have dinner together when I get home tonight."
Zhang Youyou quietly withdrew her finger from the payment screen, opened WeChat to ask him what he wanted to eat, and placed an order together. Li Donghao said anything was fine, and then attached a red envelope. Seeing that Li Dongshuo wasn't paying attention, Zhang Youyou silently accepted Li Donghao's red envelope and jumped back to the food delivery page.
"Your brother said he'd be back for dinner, what should we order for him?"
Li Dongshuo, who was texting Ji Yuxuan, turned around upon hearing this and asked, "My brother is back?"
“Yeah!” Zhang Youyou didn’t even glance at him, thinking about what Li Donghao liked to eat.
Lee Dong-seok silently sighed at his brother's possessiveness, glanced at her phone screen, and added, "She's not bad either."
"Then you can choose what he likes to eat; I won't change mine."
After Zhang Youyou finished selecting and placing her order, she silently took a screenshot of the payment page and sent it to him, meaning she wanted him to transfer the amount to her. Although Li Dongshuo was resentful, he could only accept it. There was nothing he could do; after all, she was Zhang Youyou.
Although Li Donghao said he would come back for dinner, he still had work to do, so he didn't come back until the two of them finished eating. Li Dongshuo was tired, so he went to his brother's room to sleep. Zhang Youyou didn't want to sleep, so she curled up on the sofa and watched cartoons while waiting for him.
