Anyway, she had already tried her best.
Lu Zhanbei touched her head. “You have been tired for the whole night yesterday. Go and sleep.”
“Ok.”
Lin Wanwan slept soundly and woke up only in the evening.
After they had dinner, Lu Zhanbei dragged her out of the house.
“Where are you bringing me to?”
“To see the scenery.”
Both of them went to Hucheng River in the west. A majestic bridge had been built over the river. Both sides of the bridge were covered with lush green grass. The bridge was dotted with all kinds of colorful lights. Lotus-shaped lanterns floated on the river, and they were dream-like.
Lin Wanwan and Lu Zhanbei sat on the grass patch and enjoyed the cool breeze.
“I used to come here to sit. Every time I’m here, I feel very calm.”
Hearing Lu Zhanbei’s words, Lin Wanwan leaned her head against his shoulder. “You used to be in a bad mood often?”
“Because I missed someone.”
“Did you miss me?”
“Yes, but not Lin Wanwan.”
Lin Wanwan blinked. “Then that must be Lin Xiao.”
Lu Zhanbei smiled lightly.
“Lu Zhanbei, tell me more about your childhood. I want to understand you better.”
“Fu Zhinian now is like how I was when I was young.”
“I heard Sister Zhiyi mention it before. You had autism when you were young as well.”
“Yes.”
“How did you recover in the end?”
Lu Zhanbei looked at her. Under the lights, his eyes seemed to be shimmering and looked intoxicatingly gentle.
“It’s a secret.”
“Pooh. Deliberately keeping me guessing.” Lin Wanwan felt unhappy.
“You will find out sooner or later.”
Both of them nestled on the lawn under the bridge to see the scenery. However, they didn’t know that someone on the bridge was watching them.
A blue sports car was parked on the side of the bridge. A man in a black suit lay on the car roof, and his body seemed to blend into the night.
He didn’t look up at the sound of car brakes.
“Brother-in-law, why are you here alone? Living on air?”
Tang Chen pushed away the face in front of him and squinted lazily. “Here to get some fresh air. Why are you here?”
“I haven’t been in the Imperial Capital for many years. Here to take a stroll.”
“Ok.”
Shen Yu rode an off-road motorcycle. He took out a few cans of beer from the trunk and handed one to Tang Chen. “Brother-in-law, have a drink?”
“Sure.”
Tang Chen pulled out the pull ring and took a big gulp of beer. Shen Yu saw that he was drinking like there was no tomorrow and was tongue-tied. “Are you in a bad mood? Did my tomboyish sister cause you to be unhappy?”
“You’re just a kid. Don’t worry about an adult’s matters.”
“A kid has human rights as well. Furthermore, I’m going to be an adult soon!”
Tang Chen snorted and continued to drink.
Very quickly, there were a few empty cans on the ground.
“Do you still have any?”
“I have white wine. However, the alcohol level’s a little high.”
“Bring it over.”
Shen Yu handed over a bottle of white wine to Tang Chen. He saw Tang Chen unscrewing the cap and drinking the wine like it was water. He frowned. “Brother-in-law, don’t drink so fiercely.”
“Enjoy while we can. We don’t know what tomorrow holds for us.”
Tang Chen laughed at himself. His clear eyes gradually turned misty.
Perhaps the alcohol level of this wine was really a little too high. Perhaps it’s not the wine that intoxicates but the drinker who gets himself drunk. Tang Chen quickly became confused.
“Brother-in-law, I’ll send you back.”
Shen Yu was about to help Tang Chen up. After that, he seemed to have recalled something and hurriedly gave Shen Zhiyi a call. “Shen Zhiyi, I’m on the Hucheng River Bridge. Come over quickly.”
