Lu Yi looked up at Yi Ling. Yi Ling smiled drily, “Hi, Mr. Backing.”
Mr. Backing? Lu Yi raised his eyebrows. He didn’t repel the name that Yi Ling addressed him. Anyway, Yan Huan never hid the matter that she wanted to cling onto him.
He did not care what they called him.
Soon after, Yan Huan served the dishes. She made three dishes—stir-fried shredded potato, stir-fried shredded carrot and stir-fried lettuce which were all vegetable dishes without any meat. There was meat at home but she didn’t want to make meat dishes as it was nearly twelve o’clock now. They might have indigestion if they ate too much at midnight.
Yi Ling already sat beside the table when Yan Huan came out of the kitchen. It wasn’t the first time they had a meal with Lu Yi. She wasn’t used to it but she was in the process of getting used to it.
Yan Huan didn’t know she would happen to meet Lu Yi, so she just cooked two bowls of noodles. SHe would eat it if he didn’t want to, but if he wanted to eat, then she wouldn’t eat it.
She put the noodles on the table, one bowl for each person.
“Aren’t you going to eat?” Yi Ling took the bowl and asked Yan Huan.
“I’m not very hungry.” Yan Huan put another bowl of noodles in front of Lu Yi. It should suit his taste as she added a lot of chilli sauce in this bowl of noodles.
“Then I won’t refuse,” Yi Ling ate the noodles happily.
Yan Huan had nothing to say in reply. Miss Yi had never refused when she was having a meal.
Lu Yi ate a mouthful of noodles. It was sour and hot which suited his taste.
He finished the noodles and didn’t even leave a piece of chopped scallion. Thus, it could be seen that he was quite easy to raise. He would eat what you made, whereas he was also able to starve if you don’t get him food.
Three of them almost finished the dishes, Yan Huan didn’t eat much and most of the dishes were both in the stomachs of Lu Yi and Yi Ling.
Lu Yi rose to his feet. He headed into the kitchen with the plates and bowls, rolled up his sleeves and washed the dishes. This man had never been very talkative, but much meaning was in his actions.
He could wash dishes, cook noodles and do the housework. He was quite a weirdo in the Lu family. Thus, some people said that he was the strangest existence but also the pride of the Lu family.
He had a high IQ but low EQ. If not so, he wouldn’t date the old hag Fang Zhu. He didn’t intend to marry when he was thirty in his previous life.
After washing the dishes, Lu Yi was going back, “Thanks.” He was full, and he wouldn’t feel so bad when he worked at night.
“You’re welcome.” Yan Huan said with a smile. Her slightly curved eyes looked very beautiful with her long eyelashes flickered naturally.
In fact, she didn’t have any intention to the man. She just wanted to return his favour. Of course, she wouldn’t against it if he wanted to be her backing.
Little Bean jumped down from the sofa when Lu Yi was leaving. She ran beside him and blocked his way. Lu Yi bent down and carried Little Bean to her bed.
Little Bean jumped down happily. She lay above the black bag and licked her paws.
Lu Yi frowned, the bag looks familiar.
“Little Bean, come here.” He reached out his hand to the cat.
Little Bean ran over and squatted on the ground.
Lu Yi took the bag and opened it. There was a laptop inside. Luckily, Little Bean had her habit and she wouldn’t pee on it, but it was covered with her hair.
“What’s wrong?” Yan Huan walked over and squatted down beside him. Holding the black bag, Lu Yi looked a bit strange.
“Where did you get it?” He asked Yan Huan.
Yan Huan thought carefully, err, where did I get it? It seemed that she forgot all about it.
Ah, she remembered it, “Yiyi found it a few days ago. She waited for a long time at the place but no one was looking for it, so she brought it back. But both of us forgot about it while Little Bean treats it as her bed.”
“What’s the matter?” Yan Huan found Lu Yi wore a strange expression, “Do you know who has lost it?”
“Yes.” Lu Yi nodded and let out a sigh of relief gently. Luckily, he found it finally.
“Thank you, this is very important to me.” Lu Yi reached out and put his hand on Yan Huan’s hair next to her ear unconsciously. He tucked her hair behind her ear which revealed her smooth and delicate face. Her fair-faced was set with a pair of big eyes like a gem, which was pure and beautiful.
Lu Yi retracted his hand without feeling embarrassed, while Yan Huan gripped her fingers tightly behind her back.
Lu Yi went out with the black bag. He reached out his phone and called Lei Qingyi.
“What?” Lei Qingyi looked haggard with a stubbly chin. He stood up in a sudden, “You found it? Where did you get it?”
“Under the bottom of a cat.” Lu Yi answered faintly, “It was quite ridiculous but the bag was indeed under Little Bean’s bottom.”
“Is there anything wrong with my laptop?” Lei Qingyi put on his clothes quickly and got ready to leave for Lu Yi’s house.
“Don’t worry, your laptop is safe now and so are you.” Lu Yi set the bag on the table, the bag was a bit dirty but there was nothing broken with the laptop. Since Little Bean wasn’t heavy, she wouldn’t crush his laptop. The bag was smelly but the laptop remained intact.
“Wait for me, I’ll be right there. Wait for me and don’t fall asleep.”
Lei Qingyi hung up the phone and let out a sigh of relief. He found it finally. He would keep this lesson in mind and wouldn’t bring that laptop out next time. It was better to keep the laptop at his workplace and not bring it out casually.
Luckily, it was under the bottom of a cat, or else he would go mad if it was under the bottom of a human.
He didn’t look at the time either. It didn’t matter what time it was now, he just wanted to see his laptop in perfect condition. Otherwise, he couldn’t fall asleep.
He drove the car and rushed to Lu Yi’s place crazily. He arrived at his house half an hour later. It was winter now but he broke out in a cold sweat with anxiety.
“Lu Yi, Lu Yi!” He knocked on the door heavily without ringing the doorbell.
