1216 She’s Here, Perfect

He half-embraced her as he helped her put on her clothes.

She was nestled in his arms, with red marks all over her body.

With the light coming in through the crack, he could see it all very clearly.

She was stewing as she glared at a certain someone who was obviously in high spirits.

However, she felt as if she had been run over several times and was extremely sore. She could barely even lift her arm, let alone argue with him.

He helped her put on her clothes and brushed her hair with skillful and natural movements.

His gaze met the young girl’s eyes and his thin lips raised slightly as he looked at her.

“Shen Tangtang, it’s time for you to strengthen your body and do some exercise.”

Shen Li choked.

She wanted to argue, but she did not know where she stood.

There was indeed a huge difference in the amount of exercise they had each done last night, so she really had no right to refute him.

The difference between them both was just that big.

There was no reason for this, so she could only make up for it from the side.

She pointed at her knee and said angrily, “It’s all red.”

She accused him righteously.

He took a look.

The nightgown only reached her knees, but as she lay in his arms, the edge of the dress slipped, revealing a pair of slightly red marks on her knees.

“And this…” She touched the back of her neck despite the soreness. “Why did you bite so hard?”

He had broken through the skin!

Also, this was not the only part of her body that had been tormented by him!

Lu Huaiyu paused.

“Didn’t… you bite back as well?”

The room instantly fell silent.

Shen Li remembered the quick glance she had just taken earlier.

Yes, his body did seem to be in a worse state.

At that time, she had scratched and bitten him without any mercy.

Now that she thought about it, she really did not have the right to denounce him for this matter.

She blushed as her lips moved, but she really could not bring herself to say anything. In the end, all she could do was close her eyes.

It was not important.

None of that was important.

She only hoped that the images from last night could be erased from her mind.

Lu Huaiyu carried her up and walked towards the bathroom.

Subconsciously, she opened her eyes and saw the path he was taking. Her body tensed up.

“W- Didn’t I wash up yesterday?”

And it had been more than once!

Lu Huaiyu chuckled, carried her to the sink, and squeezed out some toothpaste for her.

Oh, he meant that she should brush her teeth.

She suddenly felt embarrassed.

“Do you want to do it yourself, or do you want me to help you?”

He asked.

She quickly took the toothbrush.

When she looked up, she saw both of their figures reflected in the mirror. She lowered her head again with red ears and increased her speed.

After that, Lu Huaiyu helped her wash her face and carried her back.

When he walked to the bed, he was about to put her down when her stomach suddenly grumbled.

He paused.

Shen Li wanted to die. She wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in the crook of his neck.

Lu Huaiyu’s arms tightened as he smiled.

“Didn’t I tell you to eat more yesterday?”

She did not move.

He placed her on the bed.

“What do you want to eat?”

She lowered her voice.

“I’m fine with anything.”

“Then wait for me for a while.”

Lu Huaiyu rubbed his chin against the top of her head before she let go.

He turned around and walked out.

She slid down into the quilt, half of her face still burning hot.

…

Lu Huaiyu quickly returned with a bowl of milk and oats in his hands.

She was stunned.

“Second Brother, I’ll just go to the dining room to eat.”

Although she was finding it difficult to move now, it was not that big a problem for her to go and have a meal by herself.

Lu Huaiyu’s footsteps paused.

At that moment, his expression was a little subtle.

But it was only for a moment before he quickly returned to normal.

“Alright,” he said.

In the end, Shen Li did go to the dining room to have her meal.

However, she was still in Lu Huaiyu’s arms.

At half past one in the afternoon, he fed her breakfast.

“Do you want to continue sleeping?”

Lu Huaiyu asked.

She shook her head.

“Then…”

He spoke in a measured tone, as if he was thinking about something.

She panicked and quickly grabbed his hand.

“You… you promised me yesterday that you wouldn’t…”

She had forgotten that this man had not kept his promise last night.

Lu Huaiyu chuckled and cupped her face.

“I know. I was just thinking that if you don’t sleep, you could read, draw, or I could find a movie for you to watch?”

The more he spoke, the redder her face became.

No.

Shower, draw, watch a movie…

She could no longer look at the house.

She hugged him and put her soft hands on his shoulders.

“I’ll read a book…”

“Alright,” Lu Huaiyu replied.

…

After that, Lu Huaiyu actually carried her back to the master bedroom and accompanied her as she read a book on the bed.

The afternoon passed peacefully in a relaxing manner.

After reading for a while, she suddenly thought of something.

“Second Brother, don’t you need to sleep for a while?”

Lu Huaiyu looked at her.

“Ah Li.”

“What?”

“Did I not tell you? Yesterday afternoon, after you fell asleep…” He paused for a moment. “I went to the living room. I didn’t sleep the whole time.”

Shen Li was stunned.

“But yesterday, those images didn’t appear again,” he said.

Her eyes widened slightly.

What this meant was…

He had not hallucinated or felt any pain?

“I was thinking about you.”

He looked into her eyes and said in a low voice.

For a long time, he had been forced to rely on drugs to force himself to sleep in order to avoid recalling those images.

The steep cliffs, the dense forest, the out-of-control vehicle, and the tightly bound ropes and iron wires.

Occasionally, he would think of her and he would gain a moment of peace.

At that time, the images would often become more mottled and chaotic, but it did not matter. It was fine as long as she was there.

Until yesterday–

It was as if those images and sounds suddenly seemed to have shattered.

Instead, her back was against the light, and the sky behind her was filled with a large warm color. She looked up slightly, a faint smile on her face, and a gleam in her eyes.

All the unbearable memories of the past were wiped out at that moment.

She had come to smooth out all his scars, make up for all his shortcomings, and give him a complete life.

Shen Li was in a daze. She had a vague understanding of what he meant, and her eyes widened slightly.

So…

“So, in the future, Second Brother’s work and rest can return to normal? ”

The corners of his lips curled up slightly.

“Not necessarily.”

“What?” A hint of worry appeared in her eyes.

Then, he said, “The same routine as last night would be fine too.”

“…”

The tips of her ears turned red again.

Suddenly, the phone on the bedside table vibrated.
