Chapter 7 (1/2)
With this I've reached 15,000 words.
Looking at where my site views are coming from and at what time I've noticed people seem to be actually reading this during the day. I don't know why but I always a.s.sumed these were middle of the night (or at least late evening) novels for everyone. When do you guys read web novel?
The former Shen Yu seldom came to the villa. It wasn't until a year ago, when his parents died in an airplane crash, that he moved to the villa with Uncle Zhang and Aunt Chen.
Although there are all kinds of daily necessities at the Shen home, what Shen Yu wanted had to be ordered.
So, for the next two days, people living around the Shen house could see several delivery trucks going in and out of the outdoor gymnasium in the Shen family's area of residence. The delivery trucks seemed to be carrying a lot of fitness equipment and other things in.
But Shen Yu's legs were paralyzed in a car accident.
So what does he mean to do by buying fitness equipment? Is it for the housekeeper and servants to use?
The people outside had many different opinions, but Shen Yu was completely unaffected. After the servants completed the gym and sports field, he began to work out the exercise plan of Tang Li.
There is also the crucial matter of a healthy diet. Shen Yu specially asked Dr. Liu to find a well-known nutritionist in the industry, who helped set up a diet plan for Tang Li.
The unknowing Tang Li remained in a state of ignorance.
As a result, one morning, Shen Yu asked Uncle Zhang to call Tang Li to the stadium. Cutting directly to the chase, he ordered the villain to run around the stadium for five laps.
Tang Li was wearing the sportswear Shen Yu bought for him, the light green and dark black clothing contrasting against each other. The figure of the little villain became thinner over time, and the handsome face became even more beautiful.
———————————-
Tang Li, who was bathed in the morning light, looked up slightly, his sharp chin became outlined in light. For a moment, he was stunning, then he turned around and started running without saying a word.
Shen Yu steered his wheelchair to the center of the stadium and observed Tang Li's running.
“Too thin.” Shen Yu said to Uncle Zhang.
“But he's strong enough.” Uncle Zhang calmly replied, “I've never seen a child run for so long without running out of breath.”
During their conversation, Tang Li had already run two and a half laps.
He did not run very fast, but he kept his pace throughout the entire time. Even on the fourth lap, his pace did not slow, he even had a slight tendency to speed up.
Before long, Tang Li finished running 5 laps and trotted over to Shen Yu as he cooled down.
Shen Yu handed him the towel he had already prepared and smiled with raised eyebrows: “Chestnut really is great.”
Tang Li's ears turned red. He silently took the towel and wiped the sweat from his head.
Shen Yu asked, “Tired?”
Tang Li shook his head. “Not Tired.”
“That's good.” Shen Yu said, “After running make sure to drink some water.”
Tang Li lightly closed his lips, his bright obsidian-like eyes peeping at Shen Yu. Mixed in those beautiful eyes were feelings that Shen Yu could not understand.
After the rest, Aunt Chen brought in Tang Li's coach, who had been scheduled in advance to a.s.sist in Tang Li's training.
The coach has taught the national team and brought out many world champions in the Olympic Games [1]. The fee for his time is more expensive than ordinary people could even begin to imagine.
But Shen Yu was not a money-poor master. After greeting the coach, he warned, “The training should not be too strong. He is too thin. I just want him to be a little stronger.”
“Yes, Mr. Shen.” The coach nodded vigorously.
After Shen Yu said all this, he turned his head and looked at Tang Li, who had been staring at him the entire time. Shen Yu smiled and touched the little villain's sweaty black hair. “Get ready to start training [2].”
Tang Li felt oddly nervous and took the initiative to grab Shen Yu's hand. His expression was rather hesitant, and he asked, “Are you leaving?”
Shen Yu's wrist was painfully pinched by Tang Li's strong grip. He resisted the impulse to pull his hand back and said, “I won't go, I'm going to watch you.”
“Really?” Tang Li's tone carried a trace of suspicion.
“Really.” Shen Yu a.s.sured him that he'd stay to the end, and then he held Tang Li's hand and said, “When have I ever deceived you?”
Tang Li looked at Shen Yu for a long time, until he was sure that Shen Yu's eyes were not lying. His nerves, which had tightened into a knot, gradually started relaxing. He murmured, “Don't go.”
Shen Yu laughed and patted Tang Li on the back of his hand with a sigh.
The coach next to him looked at the interaction between the two people with a surprised look on his face. Then he laughed and said, “I envy you. My son is already so big and would prefer to be one hundred and eighty thousand miles away from me. He would never stick so close to his mother and me.”
Hearing this, Shen Yu felt very helpless.
He didn't know why the villain liked to stick to him so much. When he worked in his study, Tang Li would wander around outside from time to time, like a little puppy waiting for his master's attention.
Every time Shen Yu look at it, he felt it was pathetic.
But from another point of view, Shen Yu thinks this is also good – the little villain likes him and trusts him, which shows that his position in the heart of the little villain is becoming more and more important.
Over time, it may even be able to completely eliminate the hatred of the villain in the original plot.

The training area for the coach is located on the sports ground. The servants temporarily moved some necessary equipment from the gym. The training time is two hours a day, and mainly focused on aerobic exercise.
Despite Shen Yu's appeals to avoid intensive training, after all, with a sky-high hourly salary the coach did not come to mess around, so there was hardly any rest for two hours in the first cla.s.s.
As a sports waste, Shen Yu became tired just looking at it, and he felt a little distressed for Tang Li's thin arms and legs.
Fortunately, Tang Li quickly adapted to the coach's rhythm, and easily completed the tasks issued by the coach. He was far better than the average ten-year-old boy.
“Sir.” Uncle Zhang stood behind him and reminded him, “It's time for your rehabilitation exercises.”
