Chapter 1133 - 1133 This Year, This Day

1133 This Year, This Day

Looking like a ghost, Fu Niannian looked over and gritted his teeth.

“Just shut up! Even if I’m done, I’ll still be your senior brother!”

He could not make trouble with the boss and his little junior sister, but he was more than capable of dealing with a junior brother!

Tang Yi nodded.

!!

“Yes, a senior brother who especially cares about his little junior sister’s happiness is extremely precious.”

Fu Niannian was speechless.

Tang Yi pointed at the clock on the wall and gave a friendly reminder.

“Senior Brother, you don’t have much time left.”

Bitterly, Fu Niannian turned on the computer.

When he finished writing his thesis, he would become a hero again!

…

Shen Li opened the dessert box and took out the thousand-layer cake.

The soft and sweet taste spread between her lips and teeth, and her eyes curved into a beautiful arc.

The phone on the table lit up. She picked it up and saw that it was Lu Huaiyu.

It was rare for him to call her at this time.

She put down the cake, stood up, and went out of the room. She stood in the corridor as she answered the call.

“Second Brother?”

“Ah Li.”

His voice was as low and lazy as ever.

“I’ve found something out regarding Tao Siwen.”

Shen Li’s eyes narrowed.

“What?”

Lu Huaiyu flipped through the materials in his hands and said, “I’ve checked his immigration records for the past three years and found out that he goes to Leland once every three months, and he only brings one secretary and one assistant with him every time. He stays there for three to four days before returning to China.

“So frequently?”

Shen Li’s eyes narrowed.

Leland was very far from China, and a one-way flight would take seven hours. It would be very troublesome to make a round trip.

“He has property in Leland?”

Lu Huaiyu smiled.

“On the surface, no.”

There was a deeper meaning to his words.

Going once every three months and staying for three to four days each time seemed reasonable for a vacation.

But the point was, he did not go alone, nor did he bring any family members. Instead, he went with his secretary and assistant.

This was clearly not normal.

It sounded more like… he was on a business trip.

Lu Huaiyu said, “It’s about his activities in Leland, including who he has had contact with before. We’re still investigating, but we should get the results soon.

There was no doubt about Lu Huaiyu’s skills and abilities, especially when it was about Leland. With his connections and resources, it was not difficult for him to find out anything he wanted.

Shen Li nodded, “Alright, I understand. By the way, Second Brother, the fake painting that appeared in One Gallery before was related to a person named Mu Xinye. Plus, that painting appeared in Leland before, so I suspect…”

Lu Huaiyu immediately understood what she meant.

“Yes, I’ll have them investigate further along this line.”

Shen Li had once asked Li Yan to help her investigate, but the other party was very strict and nothing had been found in the end.

If he had Lu Huaiyu’s help, he might be able to make a breakthrough.

“Thank you, Second Brother.”

Lu Huaiyu felt like her soft voice was like a lazy cat that was scratching his heart. He laughed and said, “If you really want to thank me, why don’t you show me some sincerity? Treat me to lunch tomorrow?”

Shen Li let out a soft “Ah.”

“Shen Tangtang, don’t tell me that you can’t even show this much sincerity?” Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows.

Shen Li coughed.

“I’ve already made an appointment with Teacher Xu Yin to go to the National Planetarium tomorrow, and I’ll probably have to stay there for the whole day because of the data monitoring…

She really had not done it on purpose. Who knew that it would be such a coincidence that she had already made an appointment for tomorrow?

Lu Huaiyu put down the documents that were in his hand and leaned back in his chair, his well-defined fingers tapping on the table.

He did not say anything. In the silence, Shen Li could only faintly hear the slow tapping on the table.

She called out to him guiltily.

“Second Brother?”

There was a rare softness in her voice, and it even had a hint of pleading.

Lu Huaiyu chuckled,

“Alright, another day then.”

Shen Li had not expected him to agree so easily. After all, they had no seen each other that many times since their return from Leland.

This time, he had taken the initiative to ask her out, but she had rejected him.

“Really? Thank you, Second Brother.”

Lu Huaiyu tugged at his tie as he spoke in a lazy tone.

“No need to thank me. You’ll have to owe me this time.”

Shen Li was speechless.

She knew that this man would never be willing to suffer a loss!

“What?” He raised his voice at the end.

“Oh.” Shen Li could only accept it.

Hearing her affirmative answer, Lu Huaiyu was satisfied, and there was a faint smile in his voice.

“Yes, remember to pay me back with interest.”

…

The next morning, Shen Li went to the National Planetarium.

Xu Yin was already waiting for her in the museum. He smiled the moment he saw her.

“Ah Li.”

“Teacher Xu.”

“I heard from Zhijin that you’ve started a new research project recently?” Xu Yin asked as he led her in.

Shen Li nodded.

“We need more observation data regarding the evolution of stars.”

“Then you’ll be busy this time,” Xu Yin said with a smile.

The two of them entered the elevator together.

Shen Li’s lips curved into a smile.

…

The morning passed by quickly. At noon, Shen Li and Xu Yin had a simple meal in the observatory and continued to observe.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Time passed by slowly.

Xu Yin, who was standing behind her, shook his head.

“There are limitations to the ground telescope. The quality of these images is still not good enough.”

“Yes. I’ve written a few programs before,” Shen Li said as she recorded the data. “It should be helpful as an auxiliary analysis tool.”

Xu Yin was pleasantly surprised.

“Really? That’s great. Has Zhijin seen it yet?”

Shen Li stretched her neck.

“He’s seen it and said it’s feasible. We’ll just have to perfect it later.”

Xu Yin sighed.

This father and daughter pair were really…

“By the way, why haven’t I seen Vice Director Shen today?” Shen Li asked.

Xu Yin smiled.

“Isn’t it the 27th today? It’s his birthday, so he’s on leave to spend time with his family.”

Shen Li’s movements suddenly stopped.

The 27th?

27th of September?

This date… This date!

In her past life, Lu Huaiyu had met with an accident on this day of the same year!

Xu Yin noticed that something was wrong with her expression and asked, “Ah Li, what’s wrong?”

Shen Li’s heart continued to drop, and her fingertips were cold.

How could she have forgotten such an important thing!

She immediately took her phone out and called Lu Huaiyu.

Beep—

“I’m sorry, the number you have dialed is not available, please-”

Shen Li turned around and walked out!
