Chapter 39 (2/2)

Although Yi Heng is two years older than Tang Li, he is half a head shorter than Tang Li. Now that he was sitting in his seat with his arms crossed, his small serious body seemed a little pitiful.

By contrast, Tang Li, was kept white and tender by Shen Yu [1].

Shen Yu remained silent for a long time. After some time, he suppressed his weird mood and turned around to sit more comfortably.

———————

It takes an hour and a half to fly from S City to Jincheng.

Shen Yu read his work email for a while and suddenly felt sleepy. He adjusted his posture and prepared for a nap.

Just as he was dozing off, Shen Yu was awakened by the cold.

Currently it was the middle of summer and everyone is wearing summer clothes. However, the air-conditioning in the cabin is very powerful. The cool air brushed over Shen Yu's skin, making him break out in goose b.u.mps.

Shen Yu took a breath and rubbed his cold arm.

He turned to look at Tang Li, who was sleeping with his head hung to the side, his mouth was puckered, and his eyebrows were wrinkled. He looked too serious, like a little old man who was holding a national policy conference.

Shen Yu burst out laughing.

His sudden laughter was particularly abrupt in the quiet environment. Fortunately, he swallowed the rest of the voice back into his throat in time and did not wake up the others.

It's just…

At some point, Yi Heng had taken off his blindfold. Yi Heng looked at him with an indifferent expression. After he met Shen Yu's eyes with his own gaze, instead of turning away, he seemed to be studying Shen Yu.

Shen Yu thought about it and tried to squeeze out a smile that he thought looked kind. He said in a warm voice, “Little Heng, do you remember me?”

“I don't remember,” Yi Heng answered stiffly.

Shen Yu: “…”

This kind of answer made him unable to reply.

Shen Yu knew that Yi Heng didn't want to talk with him, so he planned to find some footing for himself to interact with the little male lead. However, before he could go on to the next step, he saw Yi Heng suddenly close his eyes and turn his head back to sleep.

The intention of refusal is very obvious.

Shen Yu: “…”

Ah…

This hero is really hard to get along with.

Shen Yu recalled that when Tang Li first came to the Shen house, he also erected sharp little thorns like Yi Heng, but the defensive state of Tang Li did not last long, and gradually he became like a cute puppy.

Looking back, Shen Yu was now a little grateful that the villain of the original novel was Tang Li, not Yi Heng.

Shen Yu turned back and sat silently for a moment. Then he called the flight attendant over for four blankets – one for him, one for Uncle Zhang, one for Tang Li and one for Yi Heng.

Because of Shen Yu's limitations, he had to wake up Uncle Zhang and get him to put the blankets on Tang Li and Yi Heng.

“Uncle Zhang, pull down Chestnut's blanket a little.” When it was Tang Li's turn, Shen Yu suddenly acted like an old mother. “His legs may get cold in those shorts.”

Uncle Zhang immediately answered by pulling down the blanket to cover the little villain's legs.

Now, Tang Li's upper body was exposed to the cold air.

Tang Li seemed to feel a little cold in his sleep. He held his arms and shrank his head down into his shoulders. He looked weak and helpless.

Shen Yu: “… Pull it up again.”

Uncle Zhang gently pulled the blanket up. Now it covered the upper body of Tang Li, but unfortunately his legs were exposed again.

Shen Yu was speechless and simply picked up the blanket on him and handed it to Uncle Zhang. “Cover his legs with this.”

“How can this be acceptable…” Uncle Zhang frowned. He refused Shen Yu and asked the flight attendant to bring another blanket. Only then did he cover Tang Li tightly from head to foot.

At last, Shen Yu showed a satisfied smile.

Uncle Zhang sighed, “Sir, you are too worried. Young master Tang Li is in good health. This level of cold can still be tolerated.”

”If he caught a cold, I would only be more worried in the end.” Shen Yu said, “It's always good to pay extra attention to these things.”

Uncle Zhang sighed, “You spoiled him too much.”

Shen Yu smiled and said nothing. He then tightened his blanket and was ready to go to bed again since it was still early.

The atmosphere soon quieted down.

Almost all the people sitting in this area are asleep. Only two or three people were listening to music or reading silently. It's so quiet that they could hear the sound of air flowing in the cabin.

Yi Heng had been attempting to sleep but couldn't seem to quiet his mind.

Much to his annoyance, as long as he closed his eyes, the picture of Shen Yu staring at Tang Li's sleeping face and giggling appeared in his mind.

He knew that Tang Li was only Shen Yu's adopted child, but he didn't think that Shen Yu would treat Tang Li with such care as if Tang Li was really his own son.

Yi Heng couldn't figure it out.——

How can there be such a person as Shen Yu in the world?

Even his own parents didn't care so much for him, but Shen Yu could pull out all his concerns and considerations for a stranger who held no blood relations.h.i.+p to him.

Yi Heng remembered his mother, who often slapped him, and his father, who ignored his pain in order to maintain a superficial marriage.

Suddenly, he was jealous of Tang Li.

Yi Heng opened his eyes slowly, and the dark red blanket that was laid on him was the first thing to catch his eye. He quietly turned his head to look at the sleeping Tang Li next to him.

Tang Li had two blankets on him, one on his upper body and one covering his legs. At Shen Yu's urging, the housekeeper pulled the blanket up to his neck and tightly tucked Tang Li in.

On the contrary, the blanket on Yi Heng's body laid loosely.

Yi Heng hung his head and gazed at his blanket for a long time.

The next second, it felt like acid rushed up his throat.

[1] I think this is saying that Yi Heng seems sadly adultish for his age while the larger Tang Li seems appropriately childish.
