Chapter 317: He would pamper her with all his life, He was worried

“What are you doing?”

The moment the bathroom door opened, the steam lingering in the bathroom rushed at her face. It was moist, and her rosy cheeks turned even redder.

Qin Shu’s gaze wandered from his slightly exposed, cut chest line to his pretty face. “I have something to discuss with you.”

Fu Tingyu said in a deep voice, “There’s no way you’re going on the trip with me.”

As she got rejected again, Qin Shu was discouraged, feeling down in the dumps. “What were you going there for?”

Fu Tingyu noticed her disappointment, “I’m going to get something.”

Get something?

Qin Shu was puzzled. She had not heard about him getting something from Xijin in her past life. What was it that he had to get it personally at Xijin?

Seeing her dazed, Fu Tingyu leaned down and lifted her across the room, heading towards the bed. Qin Shu had her arms wrapped around his neck, though in her head she was still guessing what he was getting at Xijin. While her thoughts were still wandering, Fu Tingyu had laid her down on the bed. Her focus shifted to him as he sat down on the bed, removed his slippers, and laid beside her. He was going to call it a night.

It was only 9.30 p.m.—it was too early to sleep.

Fu Tingyu reached his arm to retrieve the neatly folded quilt behind her before wrapping both of them in. Then, he switched off all lights, including the bedside lamps, and darkness engulfed the room.

Fu Tingyu pulled her into an embrace, and he rested his chin on top of her head, feeling her soft, silky hair brushing against his skin. It was the first time they were in bed this early.

Qin Shu nestled her cheeks against his chest. She tilted her head slightly, trying to look at Fu Tingyu through the darkness, but other than silhouettes, everything was pitch-black. The sound of his thumping heart filled her ears. He was acting strange, and she had no idea what was on his mind. As the clock ticked, moments later, Qin Shu gradually fell asleep in his arms.

It was 3 a.m., but Fu Tingyu was wide awake. She was breathing steadily and listening to it had stopped uneasiness. If he could, he would have entangled her soul into his body so that she was there with him wherever he went.

The next day, just when the first ray of light hit the earth’s atmosphere, Fu Tingyu had reached the lamp and switched it on. He had stayed up the whole night while Qin Shu was still sound asleep in his arms.

Hushed, he got out of bed, had his slippers on, and headed to the bathroom. He was dressed in a suit and tie when he had returned to the side of the bed. His hair was sleek. Though he had not slept the whole night, he was still energetic.

His dark eyes stared at the sleeping figure, and his gaze locked on Qin Shu’s right cheek. When he had just found her, she had that visible, dark scar on the corner of her eye. To him, her appearance did not matter. Yet, he still remembered the moment when he lifted her hair off her face; he could see panic, terror, and self-denial in her eyes.

It broke his heart. Qin Shu had never had those kinds of looks before., She had been intimidating, confident, and a little eccentric in the past. He leaned over and landed a kiss on her scar as if he was trying to make up her lost self-esteem.

As he tucked her in, he hurried out of the room. He wanted to make it back before her new semester starts. He turned the doorknob gently and left the room in silence.

Shi Yan had been up early to make preparations, and he was waiting for Fu Tingyu in the living room. As for Ye Luo, he was used to getting up early. He stood two meters on Shi Yan’s right side.

Fu Tingyu walked down the stairs steadily. He gazed at Ye Luo and reminded him, “Do not let her out of your sight.”

As Ye Luo had not tagged along the last time they got attacked in the villa, Qin Shu got hurt accidentally. This time, Fu Tingyu had instructed Ye Luo, the best martial artist among the Ye brothers, to act as her bodyguard. The only downside was he was short-tempered.

Ye Luo lowered his head and answered, “Yes, Sir.”

Fu Tingyu withdrew his gaze and headed out, with Shi Yan following his steps closely behind.

Ye Luo stood upright in the living room and shifted his eyes to look at the second floor, thinking about how he should watch over her.

When Qin Shu woke up, it was six o’clock in the morning. She was up earlier than usual. The first thing Qin Shu realized was that Fu Tingyu had already left. She slacked off for a little before she decided to get out of bed. Since her leg was injured, Qin Shu had to shift her weight to her left leg. After washing up, she changed into a set of casual clothes. The pants were cropped and loose, covering the injury on her leg.

When she got to the dining room, Ning Meng had already prepared breakfast and even served a bowl of porridge before she went downstairs so that it would be at the right temperature when she had it—Ning Meng was not only quick-witted but also attentive.

Qin Shu had noticed Ye Luo when she was sitting at the table. He was not at his usual spot outside, but he stood in front of the painting in the living room. His posture was as straight as a statue.

Usually, Ye Luo would be smoking outside at this time of the day. However, smoking in the living room was banned. Fu Tingyu had ordered that she must not inhale any of the cigarette smoke, and he would pick somewhere far to have his cigarette, brushing his teeth after he had done.

Qin Shu took a quick look at Ye Luo before resuming eating her breakfast. She had known that only Fu Tingyu could have ordered him around like that—Ye Luo was stubborn as a rock. As Fu Tingyu was worried about her safety, he had insisted Ye Luo protect her.

After finishing breakfast, Qin Shu went to her bedroom to get her backpack, and she went back downstairs. Ye Luo came forward and asked, “Madam, are you going out?”

Qin Shu nodded, “Yes, I’m going to the mall.”

When Ye Luo heard that, he walked out of the house without saying a word. Qin Shu knew that he was heading to the garage, so she followed him out. She stood on the doorstep, and not long after, Ye Luo pulled up in front of the house. Qin Shu reached for the door before Ye Luo got out and entered the car. Then, she shut the door behind her with force. Ye Luo took a glance at the rear-view mirror before he drove away.

Fifteen minutes later, they had arrived at Kaiwei Shopping Centre. Qin Shu got out of the car in her backpack as she walked into the mall, while Ye Luo was following her within a five-meter range. She could see his reflection through the glass display at the stores as he leisurely tagged along.

She entered a computer shop, and she saw two tall men surrounded by some sales assistants. They were desperately trying to promote what they had.

“Mister, I have the latest model here, and it has the best configuration. I highly recommend you run online games on it—the performance is exceptional.” She knew what guys would prefer, and she took advantage of it. She had used video games as her selling point when her target customer were young males. Her eyes lit up all this while she was talking to the two gorgeous men.

“Han Xiao, I think this laptop is not bad. It’s light and thin, and it has a good configuration. It would be good for playing online games.”
