1134 Lu Huaiyu, Wait for Me
Seeing this, Xu Yin was taken aback.
“Ah Li? Where are you going?”
Why did she suddenly want to leave?
Shen Li stopped in her tracks and tried her best to control the surging emotions in her heart. She turned around and said, “Teacher Xu, I suddenly remembered that there’s an urgent matter I have to take care of. I have to leave immediately.”
Xu Yin was dumbfounded.
“What’s the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?”
The data observation was only halfway done. If she was to leave just like that, wouldn’t it be equivalent to wasting her efforts?
Of course, Shen Li understood what he meant, but she could not care less about that now.
She held her breath and said, “It’s a bit complicated, and I can’t explain it to you in a few words. But in any case, today’s data observation will be suspended.”
She had to go.
Xu Yin could tell that something was truly wrong.
Shen Li had always been meticulous in this aspect and never made mistakes.
Today, however, she was so determined to leave that she would rather give up on the observation. It was clear that the matter was really urgent.
Looking worried, he said, “Alright, I’ll listen to you. Also, if you need any help, just let me know.”
Shen Li’s heart felt warm.
“Thank you, but there’s no need for that. I can go by myself.”
With that, she turned around and left in a hurry.
Xu Yin’s brows were tightly knitted together. He only looked back at the computer on the desktop after the tall and slender figure had completely left his sight.
The last piece of data on it had not even been completely entered.
He had known Shen Li for a long time, but he had never seen her like this.
What… was going on?
…
Shen Li quickly walked out of the national planetarium.
She looked at the time and saw that it was already half past four in the afternoon.
As she walked, she called Lu Huaiyu.
His phone was still turned off.
Her heart was beating fast, and an indescribable panic overwhelmed her.
On this day in her past life, an accident had happened to Lu Huaiyu.
To be more precise, he had been hit by someone.
A man had been driving a car on the street and had hit someone on purpose to take revenge on society.
At that time, the case had caused a total of five injuries and one death, which had caused an extremely bad impact on society.
It was at that time that Gu Tinglan had saved Lu Huaiyu’s life.
It was also because it involved Lu Huaiyu and Gu Tinglan that this matter became a huge issue.
After all, these two people’s identities were not ordinary.
The outside world had been in an uproar. After the incident, all kinds of news had flown around, causing all kinds of rumors.
Later on, the Lu Corporation and Gu Media both released statements stating that the two of them only had minor injuries.
It was true that Gu Tinglan had recovered very quickly, but Lu Huaiyu had not appeared in public for a full three months. He had even pushed back all of his work and cut off almost all contact with the outside world.
How could this be considered a light injury?
Shen Li called Gu Tinglan.
Beep–
She had never felt that waiting was so long.
The phone rang more than ten times until the call automatically ended, but the other party did not pick up.
At that point, Shen Li had already arrived at the parking lot. She got into the car as fast as she could and started the car.
At this moment, she was extremely glad that she had driven here today.
She tried calling again.
No matter what, Gu Tinglan’s phone was still connected. so perhaps she could still reach him.
She took a deep breath, turned the steering wheel, and drove away.
…
“Alright, that’s all for today.”
Gu Tinglan leaned back in his chair and heaved a sigh of relief.
“It seems that you’ve been in good shape recently.”
Lu Huaiyu, who was sitting opposite him, was not surprised by his words.
“I’ve said it before, I know my own condition.”
Gu Tinglan could not be bothered to argue with him. It was fine as long as the overall situation was good. As for the rest, they were not that important.
He took his phone and was stunned. Then, his expression quickly became serious.
Lu Huaiyu saw the change in his expression and raised his eyes slightly.”What’s wrong?”
“Ah Li just called me, but I didn’t pick up.”
Gu Tinglan showed him the phone.
“Four times.”
Lu Huaiyu also frowned.
“What happened?”
“I don’t know.”
As Gu Tinglan spoke, he quickly returned her call.
Shen Li answered almost instantly.
“Uncle?”
“Ah Li,” Gu Tinglan asked, “I was in the middle of a consultation just now and my phone was on silent so I didn’t pick up your call. What’s wrong?”
Hearing that his voice was normal, Shen Li’s suspended heart finally calmed down a little.
“Uncle, are you in the clinic now?”
“Yes.”
“Is Second Brother with you?”
Gu Tinglan was taken aback. He raised his eyes and glanced at Lu Huaiyu. After a pause, he said, “Yes, he’s with me.”
Lu Huaiyu’s eyes moved slightly as he looked over.
She was… looking for him?
At this point, Shen Li could more or less confirm that the two of them were still fine, but she still did not dare to relax.
“Yes, I called Second Brother, but his phone was turned off.
Gu Tinglan furrowed his brows as he looked at Lu Huaiyu.
“You turned off your phone?”
Lu Huaiyu took his phone out, only to find that it had indeed run out of battery and shut down.
Gu Tinglan glanced at it and explained to Shen Li, “His phone ran out of battery and he didn’t notice it just now. Is there something urgent that you need him for?”
Shen Li closed her eyes, but she could still feel her heart beating wildly.
If she didn’t, how was she going to explain the phone calls she had made earlier?
She tried her best to make her voice sound calm.
“There is something that’s wrong. Uncle, can you and Second Brother wait for me over there? I’ll be there soon.”
“You’re coming over?”
Gu Tinglan had not expected her to come so he subconsciously paused for a moment.
Lu Huaiyu was still at his place. What should he say when she came?
Just as he was hesitating, a slender and fair hand reached out from the side.
“Let me talk to her.”
After a moment, Gu Tinglan handed the phone over.
Lu Huaiyu took it.
“Ah Li.”
The familiar low and lazy voice fell into his ears, almost instantly calming the roaring of his heart in his chest.
All the noise was instantly gone.
“Lu Huaiyu.”
Her throat tightened.
“Wait for me there,”
