Drunk on Marriage, Billionaire's Overindulgent Love-Chapter 724 - 290. 【Heartbreaking Fairy Tale】Seeing Lu When the Forest is Deep (1)_3
Lu Huai’an just glanced indifferently before looking away. His sharp and defined handsome face showed not a slightest unnecessary emotion, "We can’t stay here long, if you want to buy cigarettes, hurry up."
Gu Shaozhi curved his lips into a smile, rolled down the car window on his side, and then got out of the car.
...
Lu Huai’an didn’t intentionally look at the scene inside the cake shop, glancing over it occasionally by chance.
After waiting for two or three minutes without seeing Gu Shaozhi return, he must have gone abroad to buy cigarettes.
Lu Huai’an held his phone, his dark eyes slightly narrowed, with no hint of emotion even though he was alone in the car.
Unlocking, locking, and unlocking again, he repeated the process several times before finally dialing the number.
Lin Chu felt the vibration from her phone and nudged Jiang Muzhou, who was playing games beside her, with her elbow, "Zhouzhou, my phone’s ringing, it’s in my pocket, can you help me take it out?"
She was wearing gloves covered in cream, making it hard to take them off.
Jiang Muzhou freed one hand to take the phone out of Lin Chu’s pocket, glanced at the lit screen, and handed it over, "Here, it’s your husband."
Wha-what!
Messing with cream so much that she wanted to curse, Lin Chu’s eyes lit up instantly upon hearing that the call was from Lu Huai’an.
Disregarding her image, she bit off the plastic glove with her teeth and quickly grabbed the phone, clearing her throat before answering, "Hello?"
Even though her eyebrows clearly said ’happy’, she put on a proud expression.
Jiang Muzhou, beside her, disdainfully laughed, and as expected, received a kick on the trouser leg.
"Where are you?"
The familiar voice sounded beside her ear.
How could Lin Chu tell him she was making him a cake?
"Uh..." When she lies, she becomes unconsciously nervous, tilting her head upwards to look at the ceiling, her eyes circling around, "I-I’m obviously at school, where else would I be."
After she answered his question, there was about half a minute of silence.
"Beep... beep... beep..."
The call was disconnected.
The sunlight was a bit dazzling, Jiang Muzhou turned his chair 180° and leaned back against the table to ask, "What’s going on?"
Lin Chu hadn’t figured out why Lu Huai’an would suddenly call her, confusingly asking where she was, and then hang up without saying another word. There’s no music in the shop, and the door was closed, so there was no noise to reveal her lie.
A bit distracted, "I don’t know."
"Hurry up, we have class with the class advisor tonight."
"If you didn’t mess around, I would have finished long ago."
"Hehe..."
"Get lost!"
————
After Gu Shaozhi finished buying cigarettes and returned to the car, he felt that the temperature inside seemed lower than when he left; this wasn’t the normal temperature for the end of October.
Almost the moment the car door was closed, Lu Huai’an started the car.
Gu Shaozhi knew better than to say anything, pulling out a cigarette and offering it, "Want one?"
Lu Huai’an turned the steering wheel, driving at a speed near the limit, his features calm without showing any emotion, just his voice was very cold, "Can’t you see I’m driving?"
Tsk tsk tsk, that temper isn’t small...
Gu Shaozhi chuckled, shrugged nonchalantly, lit the cigarette, and smoked it himself.
...
Near An University’s basketball court, layers upon layers of girls, varied in height and size, surrounded it, their screams never ceasing.
Gu Shaozhi watched as the fierce-looking Lu Huai’an intercepted even his teammates’ ball mid-court, the interest in his eyes growing.
Looks like Lin Chu has quite the impact.
After dunking once more, Lu Huai’an didn’t even bother to say hello, walked over to grab a towel to wipe his sweat, and threw it into Gu Shaozhi’s hands, "It’s no fun, let’s go shower."
As he was here to accompany the birthday boy, Gu Shaozhi naturally had no say in the matter.
The two men, both with family backgrounds and good looks, left the court, attracting complaint-filled voices from the female fans who had been drawn in.
Although Lu Huai’an is currently a graduate student at An University, he has long met the graduation requirements. The juniors and seniors seldom have the chance to see him.
And his friend, Gu Shaozhi, is studying abroad, so even if he returns to the country, he might not necessarily come to An University.
The two showing up together was rare indeed.
Having played for only half an hour, how could they not feel regret?
Gu Shaozhi casually wiped the sweat from his forehead and hung the towel over his shoulder.
With a smirk, he said, "With the way you played earlier, if I weren’t your friend, I would have already punched you. Those guys probably held back because of your status, thinking it’s not good to cuss you out directly. Look at you, just leave without saying goodbye, how do you expect to hang around at school in the future?"
