75th -Death of me
Translator: Xena Editor: Sammy Proofreader: Bubbles
Chu Yu was lost in trance, as if hed returned to the schools glass greenhouse.
It had rained heavily that day, and the raindrops had continuously flowed down the glass walls like a curtain that cut off everything.
He held onto Lu Shis shoulders, hesitating and not daring to exert force.
Lu Shi had whispered into his ear, Be good, bite down.
The great joy and satisfaction brought by consuming blood for the first time in his memory was reawakened at this moment and exploded with a rumble in the depths of his body.
Chu Yu felt a rush of heat running up his back as he began to tremble and weaken, unable to even stand up.
Only his teeth biting onto Lu Shis thin lips clung and were reluctant to let go.
Noticing the tingling on his lips becoming more and more distinct, and the person in his embrace seemingly devoid of his bones, Lu Shi relaxed and leaned against the wall. He supported the person in his arms and sighed contentedly.
Chu Yus eyes werent sober. He was clutching Lu Shis jacket loosely as he vaguely called Lu Shis name. His demeanor, movements, and voice all displayed a deep dependence that couldnt be concealed.
Lu Shi enjoyed it very much.
He needed this kind of hidden and unique dependency. This was his resting place; the light he tightly held within his hand and mustnt lose.
A rustling sound came from the nearby bushes. Chu Yus mind hurled back into circulation, and with the corners of his eyes slightly reddened, he asked, Whats that?
The nasal sound in his voice was quite heavy. After speaking, he couldnt help but use the tip of his tongue to lick the blood which spilled from Lu Shis lips.
A cat thats been watching for a long time.
Chu Yu moved and carefully lifted his head. Sure enough he saw a black cat squatting on the wall, looking down at them condescendingly.
H-how long has it been watching?
From when you pressed me against the wall and kissed me.
Chu Yu met the bright yellow vertical pupils, then he was blown away by the night wind, making him a bit more sober.
Seeing Chu Yu stand up straight, Lu Shi traced his finger across the end of Chu Yus eyes before asking in a low, husky voice, Are these tears of comfort seeping out? Was Geges blood that tasty?
The final syllable was very light, the tone was slightly raised, and even the surrounding air rolled up into ripples.
Chu Yu didnt know how many times hed thought this man will really be the fucking death of me!
He stretched out his hand, directly covered Lu Shis mouth, and muttered, Y-you stop talking right now.
He wanted to speak more aggressively, but his tone was soft, as if he was acting coquettishly.
After saying those words, Chu Yu added another sentence, I was a little weak in the legs and unsteady earlier, after hearing you say that, its even weaker and- and even more unsteady.
Of course, it wasnt just his legs being weak and unsteady, there were other reactions as well, but he was embarrassed to say it. However, the two of them were so close that Lu Shi had probably already noticed it.
Chu Yus gaze fluttered in confusion, and when it met Lu Shis eyes, it suddenly fixated.
Lu Shis eyes were very beautiful.
Deep black eyes, long eyelashes, double eyelids streaking along the shape of his eyes, and long and pretty ends.
Usually, within it was cold, hostile, and indifferent, but today, they were like a thawed, clear pool, even adorned with a few smiles.
Chu Yu stared at these eyes without restraint. He leaned over and gently dropped a kiss on Lu Shis thin eyelids.
His boyfriend, at this moment, was finally a little more relaxed and happy.
The next morning, Lu Shis cell phone on the bedside rang. He got out of bed and went outside the room to answer the phone.
Chu Yu, who was sleeping in a stupor, turned over and noticed the empty space around him. With closed eyes, he stretched out his arms and after patting the bed for a long time, only then did he realize that no one was in bed.
Unable to find where he threw his slippers before going to bed, Chu Yu stepped on the carpet barefoot and walked out. He then saw Lu Shi standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking out towards the tall high-rise buildings outside.
Chu Yu looked over but found nothing in particular. He yawned. Who called?
Lu Shaochu.
Him? Whatd he call for?
To ask if I can return during the Spring Festival.
Chu Yus days were spent disorderly. There was also no tradition of celebrating Chinese New Year in his family.
A few years ago, because of his fathers unexpected death, the family couldnt reunite. Shi Yaling basically worked overtime and attended meetings on the thirtieth until the first day of the new year, deliberately ignoring the festival so as not to be faced with circumstances that evoked mixed feelings.
Thinking of this, Chu Yu thought that although his mother had become colder in recent years, she really loved his father. When he was a child, hed seen his mother get drunk several times and cry while holding his fathers photo in the middle of the night. Shed cry as she called his fathers name until finally falling asleep with tears in her eyes.
It was just that she wanted to support her huge family business and vowed to gradually throw away some things.
Shi Yaling didnt celebrate the Spring Festival, and Chu Xuan and Chu Xi were abroad studying in boarding schools and couldnt return. This festival was even more boring in the Chu family.
Only Aunt Lan still insisted that, every year on the first day of the new year, shed cook delicious food for Chu Yu.
Putting his chin on Lu Shis shoulder, Chu Yu, like a koala, hugged Lu Shi from behind and lazily asked, Then what? What did you say?
I said Im not going back.
Oh, Chu Yu pondered, he wouldnt force you to go back, would he? Fang Weiyuns issue just came out.
Lu Shi nodded. Yeah.
Lu Shaochu wouldnt only not force it, he was practically eager for Lu Shi to not return. He felt guilty, worried that Lu Shi would question what happened to the statement your mother died of dystocia when she gave birth to you.
His pacing back and forth in the study made Elder Lu, who was sitting behind the desk, dizzy with unclear vision. Cant you just sit down?
Lu Shaochu then stopped and sat down on a chair.
Elder Lu closed his eyes. This times disclosure of Fang Weiyuns incident could never be a coincidence. Someone must be eyeing our Lu family. You must be prudent during such times.
He then inquired, Hows Lu Shi?
When asking this sentence, Elder Lus tone was consistently dull, but his eyes werent at all mild.
Dad, speaking of Lu Shi, I have a new find!
There were only the two of them in the study, so Lu Shaochu spoke without much scruples and said directly, Fang Weiyuns phone had been wiretapped for a long time, but the person who did this cant be traced. I was suspicious, so I looked for someone to check the entire house.
Elder Lus brows twitched and his eyes sharpened. What did you find?
Lu Shaochu cautiously answered, Fang Weiyuns diamond necklace had an eavesdropping device hidden in it.
Elder Lu tapped his fingers on the seats armrest and asked in a profound voice, Who gave the necklace?
The question was asked, but it seemed like the answer was already known.
The strange thing is that the necklace was given by Lu Shi. Lu Shaochu immediately added, This necklace had been bought by Lu Shi as a gift for Fang Weiyun. You know this, Lu Shi has always loved asking for Fang Weiyuns favor since he was a child. I still remember clearly that after Lu Shi bought this necklace, he specially asked me if Fang Weiyun would like it.
After striking a match and lighting a cigar, Lu Shaochu continued, Then, I remembered that when Lu Shi bought this necklace, he also bought himself a watch of the same brand. He didnt carry the watch with him and it was just placed in the room in a drawer. When I had the watch disassembled, I found that there was wiretapping in it too.
Hearing this, Elder Lus fingers squeezed the seats armrest before slowly releasing them.
The smoke from the cigar dissipated, and Lu Shaochu, who didnt notice, threw away the matchbox. Dad, our family was being targeted since a long time ago! Lu Shi was young, he didnt pay attention when shopping and was manipulated. Fang Weiyun often wore that necklace and its probably because of this that someone caught a whiff of the murder. Things eventually ended up in this situation step by step afterwards!
Well, tall trees attract wind. Our Lu family looks bright right now, and we really dont know how many people are staring from the darkness. Elder Lu uttered a long sigh and asked, Fang Weishan, what are you going to do with him?
Lu Shaochu smiled softly. His sister was sentenced to death for her wrongdoings, and the settling of this matter cant be placed on our heads. Im planning to fish people out. The Fang family has broken down a lot in recent years, and although it doesnt help much, Fang Weishan can still be used. Like sending charcoal in snowy weather, Ill lend a hand at the right moment, and Fang Weishan will remember this favor. For outsiders, our Lu family will be benevolent and righteous towards their family.
Good, do it like that.
Elder Lu pondered for a long time before asking, Shaochu, do you still blame me for what happened to Jiang Yueman back then?
Dad, you said I was young and impetuous, I wasnt sensible and did such absurd things. How can I blame you? Without you, I wouldnt be who I am today!
After Lu Shaochu finished speaking, he recalled, Dad, look at Iris
Elder Lu lifted his eyelids. If you really like that woman, it would be good to marry her after this matter is over. If you can give birth to a son, it will be even better.
Lu Shaochu was overjoyed, but then he thought, Dad, what do you mean
At that time, because of the Lu familys reputation and other reasons, he couldnt divorce Fang Weiyun. But he also didnt want Fang Weiyun to give birth to a child, so he had a ligation operation. Without the risk of having an illegitimate child, he had had countless lovers outside the past years, and Elder Lu didnt bother asking even half a sentence.
In addition, Lu Shi, his successor, was also very satisfying and reassuring.
However, now
Elder Lu got up and walked out of the study. Lu Shi is outstanding, but just by the fact that he hasnt come home for a year and a half, its clear that this childs ideas are too firm, his temperament is stubborn, and he isnt bound by familial relationships. I cant even control him, not to mention you. On top of that, do you think he has no doubts in his heart? Shaochu, take advantage of it while youre still young and have another one.
When Chu Yu and Lu Shi returned to Qingchuan Road, it was already near the end of the year. Many shops have closed their doors, and the lampposts and trees on both sides of the road were strung full of ugly colored lanterns and bright red lanterns.
After hearing that they were back from A City, Wei Guanglei volunteered to come pick them up.
When they arrived, Chu Yu saw a bright red three-wheeled motorcycle and was stunned. Shitou, is this your new car?
Wei Guanglei had shaved his head bald this winter. With a scar lining the corner of his eye, he appeared very much like a gangster. He just needed to pretend to be a little more vicious and he could scare children to tears.
Yeah, its second-hand, the original owner didnt want it anymore. I picked it up and repaired it so it can be driven. He reached out and patted the steel rods and tarpaulin welded on the top of the three-wheeled motorcycle. I welded it myself, fucking awesome, isnt it?
Chu Yu saw how meticulous the welding was and applauded. Fucking awesome! It can block the rain and wind during rainy days and the sun on sunny days, not bad not bad!
Wei Guanglei proudly stroked his chin. Sit in, hurry up, Ill let you experience Master Weis driving skills!
At that moment, a whistle was heard not far away and a traffic policeman on duty shouted, The tricycle or auto rickshaw over there, youre not allowed to solicit passengers here. Hurry up and drive away!
Oh shit, Wei Guanglei hurriedly got into the drivers seat, Lu-Ge, Young Master, get in get in, were leaving!
After driving back to Qingchuan Road, Chu Yus bones were almost shaken loose. He was helped by Lu Shi as he spoke from the heart, Shitou, I think I wont be inconveniencing you any more to drive your vehicle out in the future!
Wei Guanglei himself was so upset that he wanted to vomit but couldnt. He waved his hands and said with difficulty, I also think that this thing needs to take a seat, its bones are about to fall apart!
Chu Yu was very happy. He and Wei Guanglei had reached a consensus, and he didnt need to ride this broken car again!
However, Wei Guangleis car could still play a big role. For example, when buying New Years goods during the Chinese New Year, all the things could be piled up together and brought home in one transport.
On New Years Eve, adults gathered to play mahjong while watching the Spring Festival Gala. The local tyrant Wei Guanglei bought a lot of fireworks and firecrackers, piled them in his tricycle, and pulled over to the banks of Qingchuan River.
Chu Yu held a warm baby as he shivered against the blowing river wind, but not too much as hed also adjusted to it.
He asked Wei Guanglei, Shitou, are you sure that if we set off fireworks and firecrackers by the river, the police really wont come to penalize us?
I swear on my dignity, no one will arrest us here on Qingchuan River. Young master, are you or are you not going to set off some fireworks?
Of course I am!
Chu Yu had long wanted to set off a carload of fireworks to the sky and satisfy his craving, but hadnt had the chance to do so.
Now, there was finally a rare opportunity. He helped Wei Guanglei arrange the fireworks and set them in place. To tell you the truth, I even have cash with me. If we encounter a police uncle who comes to impose a fine on us, Ill let him wait for me. Then after Ive set off all the firecrackers, Ill pay ten times the fine in one go!
Wei Guanglei laughed. Thats the fucking rich second generation attitude right there! Keep it up, keep it up!
Naturally! I dont have much of anything else, just beauty and money!
Thinking of something, Chu Yu turned back and asked Lu Shi, What time is it?
Two minutes to ten.
My gosh! Chu Yu put down the things in his hand, ran to Lu Shis side, took out his phone from Lu Shis jacket pocket, and opened the class group chat. Ten oclock is the schedule for grabbing red envelopes, fortunately I didnt miss it!
Almost all members were online in the group chat and Zhang Yueshan was presiding over the order.
Class Representative Zhang Yueshan: [Everyone, grab red envelopes in a civilized manner and have a happy New Year!]
This message kept flooding the screen, and it didnt stop until ten oclock.
The first red envelope was sent out and Chu Yu flashed the fastest hand speed in his life. But seeing the 0.01 displayed on the screen, Chu Yu felt that hed received injuries!
He urged Lu Shi, Quick quick quick, grab red envelopes! I only got a cent!
Lu Shi had never participated in such activities, and this time was no exception.
Seeing that Chu Yu was anxious, he raised his eyebrows slightly. Whats the benefit?
Chu Yu raised his eyes and gazed at Lu Shi, Gege, help me grab some?
Worried he couldnt move Lu Shi, he added two words, Gege, please!
Lu Shi didnt speak, but rather took out his phone and opened the class group chat.
Chu Yu was certain that hed scratched Lu Shis itch calling him Gege.
Although it was a bit nonsensical, it was useful!
After three rounds of red envelopes were snatched, Chu Yu had to recognize the fact that his luck in gambling was almost nonexistent.
Sports Committee Member Dream-GeThis might be a typo, its usually Lou Jiaxuan in the chat group, Dream-Ges real name.: [Fuck hahaha, whats going on with School Flower, those were dozens of red envelopes, right? Adding up the money you grabbed, is it ten yuan?]
School Flower Chu Yu: [Scram!]
Study Committee Member Fang Ziqi: [I counted, School Flower grabbed six yuan and seventy-five cents! Hahahaha!]
Class Representative Zhang Yueshan: [I thought I was the worst in the group when I grabbed 39 yuan, I didnt expect that there would still be School Flower at the bottom! Im okay now, Im resurrected.]
School Flower Chu Yu: [This fragile friendship cant stand such gloom. Before this year is over, Im breaking off relations with you guys!]
Someone in the group was asking who grabbed the most amount.
Study Committee Member Fang Ziqi: [I computed it and Lu-Shen grabbed the most, with a total of 2,762! With this luck, I suggest Lu-Shen to not wash his hands and go buy a lottery ticket!]
More than 2,700? There was disparity, there was hurt, Chu Yu was so angry!
At that moment, Wei Guangleis voice sounded. Look up!
Chu Yu subconsciously raised his head and looked up at the sky. Several consecutive shiuuu were heard as fireworks rushed into the air and exploded one after another.
The fragments of light spots were especially clear in the dark night, like a splash of a starry river, scattering a group of stars.
Light and shadow fell on the surface of Qingchuan River which was then muddled by the waters ripples. The beauty was incredible.
Underneath the fireworks exploding in the sky, Lu Shi lowered his head and kissed the tip of Chu Yus eyes. Dont be angry, Ill give you all of mine.
Before Chu Yu could react, he heard a ding, which was a red envelope reminder.
In the class group chat, Lu Shi had sent out an exclusive red envelope with Chu Yu as the designated receiver.
On the red envelope was Chu Yus portrait together with the following words, Ill give you all of mine.
The author has something to say: Heres a heart formed by fireworks blasting in the night sky as my love for you~
The clues of the necklace had been mentioned in chapter 39 and chapter 49.
Stealthily inserting a small advertisement~ Transmigrating into a book, campus, system, little sweet novel, pending status, will start publishing at the end of the month~
Underachiever System (Transmigration) Author: XiumuDiaoYe
After an accident, Chen Yu transmigrated into a novel and became a thorny, mediocre student who carried a system with him.
It didnt matter if you transmigrated into a book, it didnt matter if you were an underachiever; as a top student, Chen Yu stated that the exam was the same everywhere.
The next day was the schools monthly exam. As soon as he received the paper, Chen Yu felt that a full score was settled.
Just as he was about to answer
System: [Dear, here to remind you that you can only earn 30 points on the test oh.]
Chen Yu: ???
Xie Lang, who possessed the looks and the grades, liked to mingle with the underachievers.
In his second year of high school, he was in the same class as Chen Yu, and they were even desk mates.
Xie Lang, whod often heard of Chen Yus reputation as a learning slag, wanted to hang out with the person on the first day of school, skip class, and play games together.
Chen Yu: I need to study.
Xie Lang: ???
This didnt match the rumors he heard!
cp: Only want to play, only crammed to learn study god (Xie Lang) gong x reserved and pretending to be an underachiever but is actually a top student (Chen Yuyu) shou.
