Chapter 4 (1/2)

Happy 4th of July!! ｡ﾟ✶ฺ.ヽ(*´∀`*)ﾉ.✶ฺﾟ｡

I wonder many of you are celebrating today? I have a map that shows me where all my readers come from but, heck, for all I know you're all using VPNs. Or I don't know, maybe you're all BL reading bots.

I totally forgot that it was Canada Day a couple days ago (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑). So this chapter is for you my Canadian friends.

The next morning.

After receiving a notification, Dr. Liu temporarily cancelled his training and rushed back from abroad and drove straight to the Shen house without stopping. He took his medicine box and went straight to Shen Yu's bedroom while being followed by four medical a.s.sistants, each dragging various instruments.

Uncle Zhang, who was about to call Shen Yu out of bed, was shocked by Dr. Liu's battle-like demeanor. He quickly stopped him and asked, “Dr. Liu, has something urgent happened?”

“What about Mr. Shen?”

“He's inside.”

“Is he all right?”

“At present he's fine.” Uncle Zhang was shocked to see Dr. Liu, and became nervous. “Why did Dr. Liu ask that?”

Dr. Liu blankly touched his nose.  “Didn't Aunt Chen call me to come over?”

Just as his voice fell, the bedroom door in front of them slowly opened. Shen Yu, dressed neatly, came out in a wheelchair. He squinted his eyes and laughed, two shallow dots appeared on his cheeks: “Good morning Dr. Liu, I see you've made a special trip. I hope I didn't cause you any inconvenience.”

“I'm always happy to serve Mr. Shen.” Dr. Liu smiled and said, “It seems that Mr. Shen is recovering well now. You can get up and dress without the help of Uncle Zhang. Have you been making sure to complete the rehabilitation plan I made?”

“I've been doing it all the time. Not once have I been lazy.” Shen Yu laughed, and then changed the topic. “But today's protagonist is not me.”

Dr. Liu: “Oh?”

On the other side.

Tang Li got up before dawn.

He had developed the habit of never sleeping late at his relatives' house.

Tang Li thought he would definitely see Shen Yu at breakfast. In the end, even though he deliberately finished his breakfast slowly, Shen Yu did not appear.

Before leaving, Tang Li finally could not resist and asked Aunt Chen, who had begun to tidy up the dishes and chopsticks.

“What about Mr. Shen?”

“Perhaps still sleeping.” Aunt Chen smiled helplessly. ”In the past, the Master was a night owl who couldn't sleep at night and couldn't get up in the morning. Later, Mr. Zhang confiscated the master's mobile phone before going to bed, so he forcibly corrected the master's habit of staying up late. But now, so long as nothing serious happens, Master can sleep until noon, and I don't know if he'll change that habit…”

Aunt Chen worked for the Shen family for 30 years. She watched Shen Yu grow up since he was young, so she could talk about her Master endlessly.

Tang Li was silent as he listened to Aunt Chen.

Obviously, the image of Shen Yu that Aunt Chen described is quite different from the image he had in his head.

Before coming to the Shen house, he thought Shen Yu was a cold and high-ranking person, standing at the top of the pyramid and looking down at all the ants. After coming to the Shen house, he found that Shen Yu was an angel with a warm smile. One that had no temper and was easy to approach, so much so that he could easily accept an outsider like Tang Li.

But now for the first time, he had discovered that Shen Yu had such a childish side.

“Aunt Chen.” A slightly strange and melodious male voice sounded helpless as it interrupted Aunt Chen's rant, “You're spilling all of my dark secrets again.”

Aunt Chen paused and turned to look at Shen Yu, who was pushed over by Uncle Zhang. She laughed and shouted, “Master!”

After taking care of Shen Yu for so long, she naturally knew that Shen Yu was not as angry as he was last night, but when she saw Dr. Liu coming after him, she quickly tidied up the dishes and left the dining room.

Dr. Liu looked at Aunt Chen's back as she walked away. He raised his eyebrows and joked, “I haven't seen you for so long, yet everyone is still so afraid of you.”

”Am I scary?” Shen Yu brought his hand to his own face.

“Not scary, not scary at all.” Dr. Liu answered casually, “With Mr. Shen's unmatchable beauty, we mortals can only be fascinated from afar.”

“… Shut up.”

Shen Yu turned his head and looked at Tang Li, who seemed to have almost no sense of existence from a distance. He waved to him, “Little Chestnut, come here.”

Tang Li hesitated a little, and then obediently went to Shen Yu.

At that time, there were only Shen Yu, Uncle Zhang, Dr. Liu and the silent Tang Li in the big dining room.

In order not to hurt the self-esteem of the little future villain, Shen Yu specially asked the four a.s.sistants brought by Dr. Liu to stay in the living room.

“Give him an examination, make sure to check the scars on his body. If you can dress them, then do so. I'd be best if you can get rid of them.” When Shen Yu finished, he gently grabbed Tang Li's hand and whispered in his ear, “I'll wait for you in the living room. Shall we go shopping later?”

Shen Yu spoke in a light tone, the air he breathed out like soft feathers pa.s.sing by Tang Li's ears.

It's itchy.

And it's itchy in his heart.

Tang Li nodded almost imperceptibly, and the blush of his cheeks had spread to the tip of his ears, but he had not noticed it at all.

Shen Yu watched Tang Li's face change with wide eyes, and he couldn't help laughing. He pressed down the desire to pinch the ears of the little villain and instead let Uncle Zhang push him out of the dining room.

After waiting in the living room for about half an hour, Dr. Liu and Tang Li came out of the dining room.
