Chapter 29: 029 0628, is the day she said she liked me_1
Soon enough, Lu Han figured out why the girl had been fixating on whether he considered her mother an elder or not.
It seemed that her little crush on him from back then hadn’t changed.
So, her relationship with Ye Sichen really was arranged by her older brother?
Had she accepted him with reluctance?
Doctor Lu, who considered this a very likely possibility, felt his mood, which had been gloomy for two days, lighten considerably.
“So, are you going to change the way you address me?” Lu Han, in a particularly good mood, felt playful. Douding in his arms was probably really sleepy—he kept his eyes closed, sleeping very peacefully.
With no kitten to tease, Lu Han had to shift his target to Tang Su.
“Hm? Change how I address you? Doctor Lu, you can’t take advantage of me.” Tang Su pouted, her thoughts still lingering on whether Lu Han would ask her to call him ‘Uncle Lu.’
She would never call him uncle, not even if it killed her.
Even though being called ‘uncle’ was quite popular these days, Lu Han, who was just a few years older than her, really didn’t fit the category of an ‘uncle.’
“Hm? How exactly am I taking advantage of you?” Lu Han raised an eyebrow.
“Anyway, I won’t call you ‘uncle.'” Tang Su said firmly.
Lu Han: “…”
Did he say he wanted her to call him uncle?
Ding—
The elevator arrived, and this time, without needing a reminder from Lu Han, Tang Su hurried out and went home.
“Doctor Lu, good night.”
“Good night.”
Lu Han replied in a low voice behind her.
Lu Han was very busy with work, and since Douding fell ill the day he was picked up and had been sent to the pet hospital, Lu Han hadn’t bought a cat house for him yet when he brought Douding home today.
Lu Han found a cardboard box and lined it with several layers of clean cotton cloth for Douding to make do with for the night.
“I’ll get your owner to buy you a nest tomorrow.”
“Meow—” Douding, extremely sleepy, forced his eyes open and gave a reluctant meow at the sound of Lu Han’s voice.

“Good boy, go to sleep.”
Lu Han gently patted Douding’s little head, then went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Lying in bed, Lu Han took his cellphone and was about to send Tang Su a message when he saw that ten minutes earlier, Tang Su had sent one: [Doctor Lu, do you have a cage for Douding? If you don’t, I’ve found a nice one online. It’s made of solid wood, is that okay?]
Then there was a picture of the chosen cat cage from the online shopping platform.
A four-story villa style, with areas designated for rest, eating, drinking, playing, and the bottom layer for the cat litter.
He and the girl seemed to be in sync. He replied: [Sure, you’re Douding’s owner, it’s your call. How much is it? I’ll transfer the money to you.]
Tang Su replied immediately: [Since I’m also one of Douding’s owners, I should pay for the cat cage. Besides, didn’t you just settle its hospital bill? You didn’t make me split it with you, so I can’t let you pay for everything.]
Lu Han knew Tang Su had a decent income and wasn’t short on money, so naturally, he didn’t squabble with her.
[Alright then, Douding thanks Tangtang ‘jie’.]
[You’re welcome, it’s what Tangtang ‘jie’ should do.]
[Your mom told you to go to bed early, it’s almost eleven, don’t stay up late.]
[Hmm, got it, one last thing, Doctor Lu, what time do you start work tomorrow? I’ll come over to pick up Douding before you go to work? I can rest at home tomorrow and don’t have to go to the bookstore. ]
The bookstore during working hours could actually be managed by one person, and if push came to shove, she could ask Shen Cheng from the coffee shop or Ruan Mei to come over and keep an eye on it for a short while.
She planned to place the order right away and have it delivered within the city, so that the cat cage could be delivered tomorrow morning.
She could install it at home and then let Douding move into his mansion early.
[No need, 0628, that’s the door code to my place. After you wake up tomorrow, just come in and pick him up. ] Lu Han knew that she usually woke up after eight o’clock.
Besides, he had to go to the hospital wards for rounds at seven o’clock tomorrow morning.
They were on a rotating shift system between the outpatient department and the inpatient wards.
It would be too early to have Tang Su come over to his place before seven o’clock.
Seeing the door code, Tang Su was somewhat taken aback. Lu Han had just like that given her the code to his apartment?
To think that Ye Sichen had only been willing to tell her his door code after they had discussed and settled on a wedding date.
Was Lu Han trusting this “stranger” a little too much?
On the other side, Lu Han, who had not received a reply from Tang Su, was not in a hurry.
In his mind, he pictured Tang Su might be as sleepy as Douding by then, surely fighting off sleep while messaging him.
Maybe she had already fallen asleep.
The number 0628 was actually from a few years ago when Tang Su’s friend confessed to Lu Han on her behalf, and it was also the day his basketball team won the championship.
What made this number memorable for him wasn’t the championship but the fact that on that day, a neat and adorable young girl told him she liked him.
An affection blooming from a sixteen-year-old girl, which Lu Han had not taken to heart at the time, but Tang Su’s blushing, embarrassed dash away was a scene he had etched in his mind.
It was as if the Tang Su from that day hadn’t run far but had run directly into his heart.
In college, he met a girl who resembled Tang Su a lot. That girl also told him she liked him, but she was deaf and mute.
She had conveyed her feelings to him in sign language.
At that time, he developed an interest in sign language, and since she was the right person to practice with, they naturally spent more time together.
People around them thought they were dating.
The girl was unable to speak, her sign language was not understood by many, and he did not offer any explanations.
He found out the girl was suffering from throat cancer, a hereditary condition in her family, and she would not live past twenty-two.
Her only wish was to have a comforting romance with a man she liked in her lifetime.
Lu Han fulfilled her wish, assuming the role of her boyfriend thereafter.
Later, the girl died in his arms, and on the day she died, she pleaded with Lu Han to take her up the mountain to see a sky full of stars. Underneath the stars, holding Lu Han’s hand, she conveyed through sign language, “Lu Han, I’m so envious of that girl you keep in your heart. She must be like these stars, keeping you from ever forgetting her, right?”
“June 28, is that her birthday?”
Lu Han shook his head and replied to her in fluent sign language, “No, it’s the day she told me she liked me.”
“So it’s mutual. Lu Han, once you’ve achieved your goals, go find her. Maybe, just like you were waiting for her to grow up, she’s waiting for you.”
“Yeah, I will,” Lu Han nodded.
Returning from the memories of his past, Lu Han did not wait for another message from Tang Su and turned off the lights to go to sleep.
On her side, Tang Su finally came to her senses an hour later. By then, it was too late to disturb Lu Han. She placed the phone on the nightstand, lay down, closed her eyes, and forced herself to sleep.
