You’re My Belated Happiness

Chapter 20 Part 1

Ruan Yu turned her head and saw Xu Huaishi.

Ruan Yu knew that Xu Huaisong wasn’t the only child in his family, but she didn’t know before how young his sister was. Now noticing the high school uniform of Su City on Xu Huaishi, she realized that his sister was about 16 or 17 years old.

Ruan Yu didn’t have a good feeling about it.

The archive at the First High School of Su City seemed to have her picture there. Could it be that Xu Huaishi happened to be a student there?

Ruan Yu smiled at Xu Huaishi: “I can do it by myself. You don’t want to talk to your brother?”

“What’s there to talk about.” Xu Huaishi mumbled: “This is too much. He even asked a guest to wash fruits!”

Ruan Yu was wondering about that earlier too but now she had figured it out.

Xu Huaisong must’ve wanted to talk to his family in private but seeing her standing there, he deliberately sent her away.

So in his eyes, she was such a person who couldn’t pick up on social clues? She was planning to leave already.

Xu Huaishi followed her to the coffee room, put down her cell phone and pulled up her sleeves.

Ruan Yu happened to glance over the screen of the cell phone and discovered that the wallpaper was a picture of Li Shican, lean and tall, wearing a basketball jersey while standing at the three-point line and holding an orange ball in his hand.

Noticing that Ruan Yu was looking at that picture, Xu Huaishi introduced: “My boyfriend.”

Ruan Yu was a little shocked but then realized, through her giggling, that she was Li Shican’s fangirl.

Xu Huaishi helped Ruan Yu take the wrapping off the fruit basket and began to wash the apples and plums.

Ruan Yu noticed that she was quite at ease doing all this and asked: “You do housework often?”

“Yeah.” Xu Huaishi nodded: “Forced by my brother.”

Ruan Yu was surprised: “Wasn’t he in the US before?”

“He always has ways to force me.” Xu Huaishi sighed and lowered her voice: “Remote control, like a devil.”

Ruan Yu gave her a smile and a sense of danger arose again when she glanced over Xu Huaishi’s uniform. She asked: “What high school are you at?”

“The First High School of Su City.”

Xu Huaishi answered without thinking but secretly screamed in her mind after the words left her mouth. Did this count as against her brother’s warning of “keeping your mouth shut”?

Xu Huaishi carefully looked up at Ruan Yu but found Ruan Yu seemed even more uneasy than herself.

Nevermind, perhaps it was because they both had the misfortune of being dominated by her brother. Neither of them was doing any better than the other.

Xu Huaishi felt even more sorry towards Ruan Yu by now: “Jiejie, has your case been resolved?”

“It should be soon, we’re waiting for the court date.”

“Have you run into any difficulties?”

“We’re missing one piece of evidence that’s supposed to be there. But it doesn’t matter too much.”

Xu Huaisong said oh in a very low voice.

The missing evidence was the one she was supposed to present to court for the purchase of the outline. But the purchase never existed and she couldn’t make up a transaction record. Xu Huaisong also strictly forbade her from committing perjury.

Therefore she could only say that it was inconvenient for her to provide the evidence.

Fortunately, her brother had obtained a phone record as a substitute. In addition, Ruan Yu had found that the main problem was with Su Cheng not her and stopped pursuing her.

Xu Huaishi couldn’t apologize to Ruan Yu outright and could only say: “Don’t worry. Just let my brother handle all the troubles. He’s quite good.”

Ruan Yu nodded. On the way back to the room, Xu Huaishi couldn’t control her curiosity and asked: “Jiejie, you’re so good looking, do you have a boyfriend?”

Ruan Yu shook her head: “No.”

“Then what kind of boyfriend do you want to find?”

Ruan Yu hesitated for a moment, then half jokingly said: “Someone who could sweet talk like you.”

Xu Huaishi’s heart skipped a beat.

Oh no, her brother would be out of the picture then.
