1227 Side Story 6: Favorite
There was a new view at Xijing University recently.
Every morning, the students in the Physics Department would see Lu Huaiyu sending Shen Li to the laboratory.
After dinner, they could often be seen taking strolls on the lively field of Xijing University.
The two of them were extremely good-looking and the sight of them together was extremely eye-catching.
This incident even caused a heated discussion on the school forum.
Someone posted a post, and a photo of the two was posted on the first level.
[ Senior Lu and the school’s goddess take a photo together in the town building! ]
The photo had been taken in the evening. The warm orange glow of the sunset covered the sky, and the lush branches and leaves swayed with the early autumn wind. On the wide sports field, some people were running, some were playing football, and the crowd was in groups of three to five. It was a very lively atmosphere.
Not far away, two people could be seen walking side by side.
The man was elegant and abstinent. His black shirt fluttered in the wind, outlining his perfect figure and the lines of his muscles under the shirt. His shoulders were wide, his legs were long, and he was tall and straight.
The young girl was beautiful and pure. Her white skirt, which just covered her knees, fluttered in the wind and silently rubbed against the man’s trousers.
It was an extremely intimate gesture.
As soon as the photo was posted, it quickly attracted everyone’s attention, and the number of replies quickly increased.
[ Ahhhhhhhhh! Absolutely beautiful! [ Senior Lu and Sister Li are forever my idols! ]
[ Today is also a day to cry for such a peerless beauty! ]
[ I heard that no matter how busy Senior Lu is, he will personally come to pick her up and send her off. Sob sob sob. I’m not jealous at all! ]
[ A senior who graduated many years ago has stated that God Lu has been appearing at Xijing University more frequently than when he was at university. ]
…
“Tsk.”
He Xiaochen swiped down and sighed.
“Second Brother is indeed Second Brother. With this, everyone in Xijing now knows that you two are married. When this cold and abstinent flower gets jealous, its lethal power is really not on the same level!”
Just look!
Without even a word to explain anything, just one photo was enough to shut down any of his rivals!
Shen Li was barbecuing some meat when she heard that and she paused.
The man was obviously very concerned about what had happened at the opening ceremony.
Although he had maintained the usual lazy and noble air of the second young master of the Lu family at that time, he had not even attended the luncheon after the ceremony and had immediately taken her home.
Just thinking about it now made her waist ache.
Actually, no one was at fault in this matter. It could only be considered a misunderstanding.
But she really could not control this man.
In the end, this photo had been created.
He Xiaochen clicked on the photo again, as she rested her chin on her hands while looking infatuated.
“But then again, this shot was really well taken!”
Ordinary people might not be able to see such magnificent beauty in real life, but now, not only could they see one, but they were able to witness two at the same time!
This was extreme luck for those who greatly admired beauty! It was nothing more than this!
Shen Li looked up at her and finally could not help but say, “You’ve been looking at that photo for 15 minutes.”
Was she still not tired of looking at it yet?
He Xiaochen looked smug.
“Actually, it hasn’t been just 15 minutes. I downloaded and saved the photo as soon as I saw the post yesterday!”
Shen Li was left dumbfounded.
He Xiaochen looked up and gave her a modest smile. She waved her hand.
“Oh, this is the basic quality of us who admire great beauty!”
Shen Li was speechless.
She silently picked up a piece of roasted streaky pork with her chopsticks, knowing that she had never been able to respond to this kind of statement.
He Xiaochen looked at the photo a few more times before suddenly letting out a whimper.
“What’s the matter?” Shen Li asked.
He Xiaochen tilted her head slightly as she said dreamily, “If the two of you had a child, I really don’t know how beautiful it would be!”
That vision would be just like a dream!
“…”
Shen Li placed the piece of meat on her plate.
“Eat it while it’s hot.”
…
The scientific research tasks of a Ph.D. student were heavy. Generally speaking, people who had just entered their first year of their Ph.D. studies would need some time to adapt.
However, Shen Li was an exception.
She had taken two years to complete the credits for her undergraduate course, but the courses for her doctoral degree were much fewer.
As for the laboratory, she had followed Xu Yin for a long time, before eventually following Shen Zhijin, so she was already used to it.
In addition, she was extremely efficient, so in comparison, she had more free time than before.
She spent most of her time attending classes and conducting experiments at Xijing University. She spent a small part of her time at the Capital branch of the Fino Laboratory, where she was responsible for the measurement and processing of some key data.
Jiang Ran had chosen to leave Fino Laboratory the previous year in order to join a domestic company.
Although Fino Laboratory had sufficient funds, she had been unable to get any big projects on her own, and she had not made any obvious breakthroughs in scientific research. Thus, the salary that she was entitled to was very limited.
In this case, one would be able to get a good salary elsewhere.
Scientific research as a whole was very boring and uninteresting. It required patience and perseverance, which was not suitable for everyone.
Even if it was a smart person.
…
in January, at the end of the first semester for the doctorate course, it began to snow heavily in the Capital. Thus, Shen Li and Lu Huaiyu returned to Hong Kong City together.
Since she had stayed at Xijing University to study for her Ph.D., she was only able to go back to spend time with Old Master Gu and Old Madam Gu during the holidays.
This time, it was her winter vacation, so Lu Huaiyu accompanied her.
The two of them went to Dutian Villa early in the morning.
Shen Li and Lu Huaiyu walked side by side. The air was still filled with the fragrance of freshly trimmed grass.
She raised her hand and pointed somewhere in front of her, “Bright Moon has always been kept here, but it was at Grandmother’s suggestion that Qingfeng was also sent here.”
Lu Huaiyu followed her line of sight and saw two horse trainers, each holding onto a horse. One horse was white while the other was green, and both of them were grazing on the grass together.
The corners of his lips curved up slightly.
“It looks like they’re well taken care of here.”
Shen Li smiled and nodded.
“That’s right. Bright Moon has a willful temper, and Qingfeng is also a little arrogant. Initially, I was quite worried that they wouldn’t get along.”
However, it turned out that she had been overthinking things. Bright Moon and Qingfeng had a good relationship.
She began to walk over to them.
Hearing the footsteps, both Bright Moon and Qingfeng looked up.
When Qingfeng saw her, he immediately wanted to come over.
The two horse trainers also quickly called out a greeting, “Miss Li, Second Master.”
Qingfeng began to struggle with the reins and quickly rushed to her side, almost causing the tamer to stumble.
Shen Li could not help but laugh.
“Leave Qingfeng to me.”
The horse tamer steadied himself and immediately handed over the reins.
Shen Li touched Qingfeng’s ear and said, “Do you want to go for a run?”
Qingfeng affectionately rubbed his head against her shoulder. When he heard her words, he used his hoof to scratch the ground, obviously looking forward to it.
However, just as Shen Li was about to get on the horse, Bright Moon suddenly walked over and blocked Qingfeng.
Shen Li was stunned.
“Bright Moon, what’s wrong?”
Was it… unhappy?
That should not have been the case. Usually, when she came over to take Qingfeng out for a walk, Bright Moon would never act like this.
Bright Moon seemed to be annoyed. She forcefully squeezed between her and Qingfeng, pushing Qingfeng away with her head.
Qingfeng was a much stronger horse, but this time, he was caught off guard. He was unable to resist and immediately retreated two steps.
“Bright Moon?”
Shen Li looked at it in surprise.
Bright Moon met her gaze with eyes calm, as her long eyelashes fluttered.
After that, it tilted its head and gently rubbed against her shoulder. Its actions were extremely dependent and gentle.
Shen Li thought for a moment before asking, “Does Bright Moon also want to go and run two rounds?”
However, Bright Moon was too old, and this was not very appropriate.
Bright Moon lowered her head and bit on the reins, breaking free from her hands.
Shen Li was stunned.
Bright Moon seemed to be…
As Lu Huaiyu walked over and saw her stunned face, he took a look at Bright Moon and his brows suddenly twitched.
“Ah Li.”
Shen Li turned around.
He stared into her eyes for a few seconds before he slowly said, “It looks like… you’re three days late?”
