Chapter 531 - Her Future Husbands Room

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lu Sheng made two portions of steak and two portions of spaghetti. She even prepared a candle and wanted to have a candlelight dinner with Chu Yan.

Unexpectedly, the door opened before the candle was lit.

Seeing Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian walk in, Lu Sheng was speechless.

“What did I say?” Shangguan Dian clicked his tongue and smiled. “I knew they must have met, right?”

When Chu Yan saw two unfamiliar men suddenly appear in Lu Sheng’s house, his expression could not help but tense.

He stood in front of the table and looked at the two of them, then at Lu Sheng.

“Oh, you’re preparing a candlelight dinner?” Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows and gave Lu Sheng a thumbs up. “My disciple is so smart.”

Lu Sheng smiled insincerely at him and said, “It’s raining so heavily. Why didn’t you come back tomorrow?”

She had lived for so many years and finally wanted to be romantic with her sweetheart. In the end, her father interrupted her.

“This looks good. Lu Sheng, Uncle wants one too.”

Shangguan Dian threw his coat on the sofa and spoke as he looked at the two plates of steak and spaghetti.

“These two are…”

Chu Yan asked Lu Sheng hesitantly.

“This is my father and my master. This is Uncle Shangguan, whom Uncle Pei called as my uncle.”

Chu Yan was speechless.

There was a father, a master, and an uncle. How should he address them?

And…

Why did Lu Sheng’s father look so young?

“Uncle Lu, Uncle Shangguan.”

Chu Yan pondered for a moment and decided to address them simply.

“Lad, if you don’t mind, you can call me Father.”

Lu Zhou placed his hand on Chu Yan’s shoulder and spoke maliciously.

This kid was the most obedient when he did not know anything.

“Huh?”

Chu Yan was shocked by his enthusiasm.

It did not seem appropriate to call him Father immediately, right?

“I was just teasing you.”

Lu Zhou patted his shoulder and sat at the side with a smile.

“Daughter, go and make a portion for Father and your uncle too. It’s raining so heavily. We rushed back in a hurry and didn’t eat anything.”

Lu Sheng rolled her eyes at him. “You won’t be hungry.”

Although she said that, she still did it obediently.

Chu Yan looked at Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian. He was at a loss whether to stand or sit. He felt a little awkward.

Unexpectedly, the two of them seemed to want to go against him and did not ask him to sit down.

Seeing him suffer, Lu Zhou was especially happy.

Before he woke up, he could bully him for a while. When he woke up, he would not be likable anymore.

“Oh, Little nephew, why are you still standing? Quick, take a seat.”

After ten minutes, Lu Zhou pretended to be surprised.

Chu Yan smiled and sat down cautiously.

“I haven’t asked. What’s your name?” Lu Zhou asked.

“Chu Yan. The same ‘Yan’ as the King of Hades’ Yan.”

“Chu Yan?” Lu Zhou chuckled. “You’re quite nostalgic.”

“Nostalgic?”

Chu Yan looked over in confusion.

Lu Zhou smiled and shook his head. “Nothing.”

Chu Yan looked at Lu Zhou and felt that this person was very familiar, as if he had seen him before.

He also felt that Uncle Shangguan was familiar.

When he saw them, he felt exactly the same as when he saw Lu Sheng back then. They seemed very familiar, but it was clearly his first time seeing them.

Moreover, for some reason, he suddenly felt like they knew him.

“You’re studying in Yizhong too?” Lu Zhou asked.

Chu Yan nodded. He suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen these two people in Principal Gao’s office.

Lu Zhou chuckled. “No wonder.”

No wonder he felt Chu Sihan’s aura at Yizhong previously. At that time, he thought that he had felt wrong.

“Hey, our Sheng Sheng didn’t bully her classmates in school, right?” Shangguan Dian asked with a smile.

“Uncle Shangguan.”

Lu Sheng’s unhappy voice came from the kitchen.

Shangguan Dian chuckled. “Little niece, Uncle is just joking.”

Seeing that no more sounds came from inside, Shangguan Dian looked at Chu Yan and continued, “No one is chasing our Lu Sheng in school, right?”

Chu Yan shook his head. “This is the third day I’ve known Lu Sheng.”

It meant that he wasn’t sure.

“Only three days?” Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow. “She kidnapped you home in three days? How unambitious.”

Chu Yan was speechless.

This did not sound right. It was as if he could not stand the temptation of his daughter.

He explained calmly, “An uncle invited us for a meal today. We encountered a rainstorm when we came back, so we came in to avoid the rain.”

Lu Zhou nodded. “The rain came at the right time.”

Chu Yan smiled and did not know what to say.

Lu Sheng finished cooking quickly. There was rice and scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

Lu Sheng glanced at the steak on the table. It was already cold.

She wanted to heat it up, but Chu Yan had already started eating. She raised her eyebrows and sat down to eat.

The rain was still pouring outside. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. It seemed like it would not stop anytime soon.

After dinner, Lu Sheng looked at Chu Yan and said, “Why don’t you stay here tonight?”

As she had been waiting for Chu Sihan all these years, she would specially renovate an additional room every time she moved.

Moreover, there were a lot of men’s clothes in the closet. She bought them for Chu Sihan when she was shopping. They were all new.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“This… isn’t too appropriate, right?”

Chu Yan looked hesitantly at Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian. He realized that the two of them were lying on the sofa and watching television. They did not intend to pay them any attention.

“Let’s go. I’ll bring you to your room. Wash up and change your clothes first.”

Lu Sheng stood up and pulled him upstairs.

Chu Yan’s heart trembled. He was afraid that Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian would have a bad impression of him.

He turned back and realized that the two of them did not even look at them.

“You… bring friends home often?”

The thought that Lu Sheng might have brought others home made him uncomfortable.

“No, you’re the first.” Lu Sheng raised her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes. “You don’t think I bring others home often, right?”

Chu Yan shook his head guiltily. “No, I was just asking casually.”

The main reason was that the two people downstairs had a strange reaction. It was as if they were used to such a scene. He could not help but think about it.

Lu Sheng led him into a room and switched on the lights. She turned back and smiled at him. “Stay here tonight.”

Chu Yan scanned the room. It was very spacious and the renovation style was more masculine. The blankets and pillows on the bed were stacked neatly, as if no one had stayed there before.

There was a huge closet against the wall at the side. It did not look like a guest room but a master bedroom.

“Whose room is this?” he asked Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng smiled and said half-jokingly, “This is my future husband’s room.”

“Future husband?” Chu Yan’s heart sank. “Has he… been here before?”

Lu Sheng looked at him and smiled. “Isn’t he here now?”

After being stunned for a while, Chu Yan coughed lightly and looked away.

However, his thin lips curved upwards unknowingly.

Lu Sheng stared at his lips and could not help but smile.

She smiled and said, “Take a shower first. I’ll go and wash up too. The clothes in the closet are all new. Take whichever set you want to wear.”

“Yes.”

Chu Yan nodded like a wife. After Lu Sheng left, he chuckled.

“Future… husband?”

He was secretly amused for a while before walking to the closet and opening it.

Almost all the clothes inside were brands that he could recognize. There were suits, casual clothes, sportswear, pajamas, and even underwear.

Moreover, they were placed according to classification.

He looked at the size. Coincidentally, it matched the clothes he usually wore.

The shoe cabinet at the side was filled with new shoes, which were also his size.

It was as if everything inside was tailor-made for him.

He walked back to the closet and stopped for a while. Then, he took a set of pajamas and entered the bathroom.

The bathroom was huge. There was everything inside, and they had never been unwrapped.

When he came out after showering, there was a sudden noise at the door.

“Come in.”

Just as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open and Lu Sheng, who was wearing a gray bear pajamas, walked in.

Coincidentally, he was also wearing a gray bear pajamas.

The two of them were stunned at the same time. Lu Sheng was the first to regain her senses.

She chuckled and said, “Is this called telepathy?”

Chu Yan smiled and gestured for her to sit down.

Lu Sheng looked around and realized that she could only sit on the bed.

Hence, she took off her shoes and climbed onto the bed.

Chu Yan was stunned and stood at his original spot, not knowing what to do.

Seeing that he did not move, Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Aren’t you coming up?”

Chu Yan coughed lightly and said with a red face, “I… I’ll stand for a while more.”

“Snort—”

Lu Sheng could not help but burst into laughter. She teased, “Are you afraid that I’ll eat you?”

“That’s not what I meant.”

Chu Yan wiped his forehead and thought, ‘It’s not certain who will eat who.’

“Then, sit up here. Don’t worry, I’m very obedient.”

As she spoke, she patted the spot beside her and raised her eyebrows.

Chu Yan hesitated for a moment before sitting up.

Lu Sheng smiled and took out her phone to play games.

Chu Yan turned his head and glanced at her. When she was engrossed in playing, he took out his phone and opened his camera to take a picture of her.

Perhaps because the situation in the game was not too good, she pursed her lips and frowned.

He looked at the photo and smiled. Then, he clicked back and opened WeChat.

“Cousin, where are you and Miss go? Aunt just called me to ask why you’re not home yet.”

It was Fu Sisi’s WeChat message.

He clicked on it. Indeed, there were more than ten missed calls. They were all dialed when he was bathing.

As there were often missed calls, he did not notice them.

He tapped on the number pad and realized that they were indeed from his ‘mother’.

After a while, the call was picked up.

His mother’s anxious voice traveled over. “Yan Er, where have you been? Why aren’t you back yet?”

“I’m at a friend’s house. I won’t be going back tonight.”

The other party seemed to heave a sigh of relief. “It’s good that you’re safe. Remember to come back early tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

Chu Yan replied softly and said good night before hanging up.

“Parents checking on you?”

Lu Sheng had already ended the game and was hugging a pillow. She tilted her head and asked him.

Chu Yan smiled and nodded. “It’s my mother.”

Lu Sheng glanced at her phone and realized that it was already nine in the evening.

She hurriedly looked at Chu Yan and asked, “Are you going to rest?”

“No.” He shook his head. “I usually rest after eleven.”

Lu Sheng nodded.

The atmosphere fell silent.

The duo looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

“Let’s take a picture, alright?”

Lu Sheng took out her phone and asked him with a smile.

“Okay.”

He had just nodded when she smiled.

“Put on your hat.”

Lu Sheng raised her hand and helped him put on his bear hat. Then, she put hers on too and started taking pictures.

The two of them gestured with their hands.

“It’s quite pretty.”

Lu Sheng glanced at the photo and nodded in satisfaction.

Seeing that she had directly set it as a wallpaper for her phone, Chu Yan was shocked.

“Aren’t you afraid that others will misunderstand our relationship?”

After all, they had only known each other for three days.

Although he was happy that Lu Sheng used their photo as a wallpaper, wasn’t it too early?

“Misunderstand what?” Lu Sheng looked up at him and pretended to be puzzled. “What’s wrong with using a photo with a friend as a wallpaper?”

Friend?

So, she only treated him as a friend?

He immediately felt an inexplicable sense of loss. However, he also felt that there was nothing wrong with being friends.

After all, they had only interacted for two days and did not fully understand each other. It was quite good to start as friends.

“Then… send me one too.”

He hesitated for a moment before speaking in a low voice.

“Okay.”

Lu Sheng opened WeChat and clicked on the chat box. Then, she sent the picture to him.

Chu Yan clicked to download and save it. Then, he set it up as a wallpaper like Lu Sheng.

When Lu Sheng saw this, she revealed a satisfied smile. She climbed off the bed and put on her shoes before saying to him, “Rest early. I’ll go back and watch my show first.”

“Oh.”

Chu Yan stared at her back and replied in a low voice.

For the first time in seventeen years, he had the urge to sit with a girl until the end of time.

It was really strange. If someone had said the words ‘until the end of time’ to him before, he might have scoffed.

However, after interacting with Lu Sheng, he suddenly understood the meaning of these words.

“Chu Yan, since you’ve decided, protect her well.”

He mumbled and smiled gently. Then, he collapsed onto the bed and his mind started to wander.

—————

The next day.

When Chu Yan woke up, he realized that Lu Sheng was still asleep. Lu Zhou was cooking breakfast in the kitchen.

“Morning, Uncle! Do you need help?”

“You’re up?”

Lu Zhou looked at him and smiled. “No need.”

Then, he looked at him and asked, “I made Oily Noodles. Are you used to it?”

Chu Yan smiled and said, “I’m not picky.”

“That’s good.” Lu Zhou nodded and placed the fried eggs into four bowls of Oily Noodles.

After a while, Chu Yan heard footsteps coming downstairs.

He stuck his head out and saw Lu Sheng walking down from the second floor.

Lu Sheng also discovered him and smiled. “I went to knock just now, but realized that the door was unlocked. I didn’t see anyone when I went in. I didn’t expect you to wake up so early.”

It was only seven in the morning now.

Chu Yan smiled embarrassedly. “I usually wake up early.”

Lu Sheng stood opposite him. She stuck her head in and asked with a smile, “Master, what did you do that smells so good?”

The two of them were very close. She emitted a faint milky fragrance, as if she had just bathed. Chu Yan’s heart suddenly beat erratically.

He stared at her tender neck and subconsciously retreated, distancing himself from her.
