After Being Transported into a Book, I Adopted the Villain

Chapter 58: Delighted (2)

“You are not an adult yet.” Shen Yu jokingly said.

“There’s more than a year left. It’ll be over in a blink of an eye.” Tang Li looked down at Shen Yu’s face that’s immersed in the light. His eyes reflected his full tender feelings, “Furthermore, I’m taller than you now.”

“...”

Shen Yu, who had been stabbed in his heart, shook Tang Li’s hand, “You, shut up for me.” he said.

“I was wrong. I was wrong.” Tang Li admitted his mistake proactively and hurriedly grabbed Shen Yu’s arm, coaxing him pitifully, “Shen Yu, I was wrong. Don’t be angry.”

Shen Yu pursed his lips and said nothing. He pushed Tang Li towards the reception desk.

Consequently, Tang Li eagerly ran to the desk.

Shen Yu stared at Tang Li’s happy figure from behind. For a moment, he couldn’t hold back and chuckle. He quickly clenched his fist and slapped his face. But, he couldn’t suppress the corner of his mouth to rise into an arc.

He was very happy.

He had not been so happy for quite a while.

During the five days when he had lost all contact with Tang Li, the time he had spent felt endless. Now, his joy shrouded him while he’s recovering what he had previously lost. It was as if the air was filled with the taste of sweetness.

In a short time, Tang Li came back with the room card. His face was brimming with a smile that looked like it has solidified.

Shen Yu, who finally calmed down, suddenly was unable to restrain a smile. With only two of them in the elevator, he asked, “What are you smiling at?”

Tang Li shrugged, “Nothing. Just feel very happy.”

Shen Yu slightly raised his chin and looked at Tang Li’s face that’s bathed in the backlight. The smile from the corner of his mouth seemed like poison, it spread to Shen Yu’s deepest heart in an instant.

It was terribly sweet.

“Idiot.” Shen Yu said.

Hearing these words, Tang Li smiled brightly even more. He did not deny, “You are right. I am an idiot.”

He was not only dumb but also foolish. The foolish girl at the reception desk asked him without hesitation if Shen Yu was his boyfriend. For quite a while, he had been joyful at the thought. He wished he had recorded what she had asked and play it from time to time.

Shen Yu looked at Tang Li’s incessant smile. He just shook his head helplessly.

After entering the room, Shen Yu rushed directly into the bathroom. The bright light shone on the mirror without a speck of dust. Inside it clearly reflected his cut sorry figure appearance——His hair was messy, his cheeks were pale and his dark circles were thick like lump eye shadows under the eye frame.

His clothes were dirty and wrinkled, he also exuded a bad smell.

He didn’t know if Tang Li could smell him when he was sleeping on his arms in the car earlier.

To think that Tang Li had been permeated by this strange smell for half an hour. Shen Yu felt that he, himself, was no good. This kind of emotion called shame was like a bug, wriggling to his heart...

Dammit.

Shen Yu cursed inwardly. He then efficiently took off his clothes and pants.

~Outside the bathroom.

Tang Li sat on the sofa in front of the french window and stared at the closed bathroom door. He waited for a long time yet he did not wait for Shen Yu to come out. He could not help but feel worried.

When he was about to get up and knock on the door, his cellphone on the coffee table suddenly rang.

Tang Li saw the name displayed on the bright cellphone screen. He froze and slowly squeezed his lips.

Although he didn’t want to be disturbed, Tang Li had to pick up his cellphone and connect it.

“Second Uncle.” Tang Li said in a deep voice.

“En.” A steady middle-aged man’s voice came from the cellphone, “I just came from City C to catch up. But I heard that you are away, is there something matter?”

Tang Li responded with a low voice, “There’s something that’s a bit urgent. “

“What in this world is more urgent than being reunited with your family?” The party on the other side was slightly discontented although the tone he used was light, but the words he used were disguised as a blame, “I know you have just returned home and there are many things that you are unable to adapt for the time being, but I hope you can distinguish which is more important.”

“I know. Thanks, Second Uncle for your guidance.” Tang Li said as he looked down at the blanket on the floor. His long eyelashes and bright pale skin casted a shadow. It was clear that there was no expression on his face, but it would make people feel cold as if the cold seeped into their skin to their bones.

The second uncle on the other side of the call didn’t feel that there were any problems. Knowing that Tang Li’s being obedient, he relaxed a little, “You, remember to come back before noon tomorrow. I brought your eldest uncle and second aunt with me. We’ll have a meal and get to know each other.”

“Alright, Second Uncle.” Tang Li replied.

After that, the Second Uncle repeatedly warned and reminded him of a few more words before hanging up.

Tang Li hasn’t budged from his position for a long time. He held his cellphone and there was hostility hidden in his eyes like a surging undercurrent, quietly overturning the sea and river [6].

When he heard a knock on the door, the pressure around him suddenly faded. In a blink of an eye, it seemed as if nothing had happened to him.

He got up to open the door. Outside, stood Zhou Che, who was panting, holding huge shopping bags in his hand.

“I bought some clothes that looked good. You can choose yourself.” Zhou Che panted. He shoved the shopping bags to Tang Li’s arms, “There are also some close-fitting clothes in this small bag.”

Zhou Che was about to leave after his delivery. But then, he suddenly thought of something right after he took two steps. He reached into his trouser’s pocket with one hand and pulled out two thin square plastic bags and quickly placed them into Tang Li’s pocket.

“I bought it at the drugstore.” Zhou Che winked at Tang Li, “I wish you a pleasant night.”

Unfortunately, Tang Li didn’t see clearly what Zhou Che had in his hand just now. He was a little confused, “...What is this? “

“It’s time for you to stop pretending.” Zhou Che clicked his tongue and patted Tang Li on the shoulder. He made a cheering gesture and then slipped away.
