You’re My Belated Happiness

Chapter 42 Part 2

Li Shican immediately told the technician: “Make sure we blur all the parts which show the backpack.” He then turned to look at Xu Huaisong: “Is this what you were going to point out too?”

Xu Huaisong: “En. In addition, we have to monitor social media. Monitor for any keyword on all platforms that’s associated with my sister’s personal information. If your team can’t work with me, I’ll contact……”

“It’s not necessary.” Li Shican interrupted him while shaking his head: “I’ll take care of it to the end.”

Xu Huaisong nodded to him. After making sure that the video had been properly edited, he took the lead in leaving the noisy conference room.

Ruan Yu followed him to walk out of the room.

Xu Huaisong was making a phone call: “Mr. Ho, this is Huaisong. I have a favor to ask you……”

He then explained the whole incident in detail to Mr. Ho and continued: “Right, I’m letting you know about this just in case. It’s not just my sister’s personal problem, it also has to do with the school’s reputation. I believe you’re the most suitable person to make sure rumors won’t be floating on campus.”

Ruan Yu followed him all the way back to the reception room.

There was no one inside the room. Xu Huaisong finished the phone call and sat down on the armchair, pinching between his eyebrows.

Ruan Yu walked in front of him and bent over to say: “Are you very……”

Before she could utter the word “tired”, Xu Huaisong dragged her arm and pulled her onto his lap.

Ruan Yu squeaked, then lowered her voice to say: “What are you doing?” She asked as she tried to back away.

Xu Huaisong held down the back of her waist, preventing her from escaping. He took a glance at the glass of milk on the table and said: “Why does he know that you like milk tea?”

Somewhat surprised by the question, Ruan Yu explained: “We saw each other here and there back in college.”

“I’ve seen that picture.” Xu Huaisong said with a serious face: “The picture was taken when he was a freshman playing piano on stage in a competition. Were you sitting in the audience?”

“En……” Ruan Yu frowned: “But nothing happened between us just because he looks a little like you. Otherwise, how could you be……”

Xu Huaisong’s pupils shrunk a little.

Ruan Yu stopped talking immediately and made a smile trying to appease him.

Someone pushed the door open at the moment.

Ruan Yu jumped up out of reflex. At the same time, Xu Huaisong also released his hand on her.

Li Shican stood frozen at the door.

Ruan Yu blinked a few times and quietly went to sit down.

Xu Huaisong slowly poured the milk into his tea cup, stirred it with a spoon, then lowered his head to take a sip.

Li Shican smiled and explained: “I thought you two had left.” That’s why he didn’t knock first.

Xu Huaisong put down the tea cup and gave him a look: “Mr. Li, if it’s convenient, I would like to talk to you in private.” As he was speaking, he stood up and tidied his clothes.

Ruan Yu was surprised at Xu Huaisong’s sudden move. Before she could ask what it was for, Li Shican nodded in agreement.

The two men left the room one after the other. Before Xu Huaisong left the room, he gave Ruan Yu a look, indicating that she should wait in the reception room.

Ruan Yu waited for a long time and became thirsty. She took a look at the milk tea which Xu Huaisong had just mixed. She couldn’t resist the temptation and got up to drink from it.

Xu Huaisong didn’t return until she drank the whole cup of milk tea and said, “Let’s go.”

Ruan Yu didn’t see Li Shican anywhere. She followed Xu Huaisong into the elevator and asked in a small voice: “What were you two up to? You didn’t punch him or anything?”

Xu Huaisong glanced at her and cracked a smile: “You like that kind of person?”

“Hey, don’t change the subject. What exactly did you two talk about?” If it was about Xu Huaishi, Ruan Yu felt that there was no need to keep her in the dark.

Xu Huaisong didn’t reply but suddenly got closer to her and asked instead: “Was it good, the cup of milk tea that I had drank?”

The ability for a lawyer to observe was truly not to be underestimated. Ruan Yu blushed: “I drank it not because you had. I’m not a pervert……”

Xu Huaisong took a look at the surveillance camera inside the elevator and didn’t say anything. They walked out of the elevator to go to the parking lot. After they got into the car, he then leaned forward to the passenger side and lightly pinched Ruan Yu’s chin to kiss the corner of her lips which still smelled like milk tea.

Then he said: “But I am.”

Ruan Yu completely forgot to continue her investigation into what had happened between him and Li Shican.
