Bite Your Fingertips (BL) (Complete)

Chapter 39.1 - Try And Touch Him

Shaking his dazed head, Chu Yu watched Lu Shi take out a white cap and hoodie from the closet. He readily took off his pajamas, raised his arms, and cooperated with Lu Shi who helped him dress.

It wasn't until Lu Shi helped him straighten his hat that Chu Yu faintly realized that something was wrong- Lu Shi had helped him dress... Wasn't that not so ideal?

But Lu Shi's expressions and movements were all too normal, and thus, the sole sense of abnormality that sprouted in Chu Yu's heart was also broken apart.

With his head still a bit confused, Chu Yu stepped barefoot on the carpet and scuttled into the bathroom to tidy up.

Less than two minutes later, Chu Yu came out with a 'thud thud' sound carrying a toothbrush in his mouth while yelling indistinctly, "Shit, today is Saturday!"

Lu Shi, who had one hand in his pocket as he looked at the lushly growing Strelitzia, nodded when he heard his words. "En, Saturday."

"I thought it was Friday today! Then why wake up so early? That's right, have to run, okay..."

Returning to the bathroom, Chu Yu looked at himself in the mirror and was startled by the realization that he was really spending his days in a trance.

Every day it was playing on the phone, sleeping, reading comics, then repeating the previous day the next day, without any changes.

It was immensely boring.

After spitting out the white foam in his mouth, Chu Yu grabbed a paper towel and wiped off the water droplets on his face, his eyes dull.

After breakfast, Chu Yu felt a bit downcast. He asked Lu Shi, "Are you going home? With Zhu Zhifei?"

"Going back. Not with Zhu Zhifei, he already returned last night."

"Oh, I see."

Chu Yu thought for a while. "Then I'll go back too. I was in school previously during National Day, and I haven't been home in a long time anyway."

Chu Yu called the driver to pick him up. Lu Shi waited for him to leave before getting on the bus back to Qingchuan Road.

The bus stop on Qingchuan Road hadn't been renovated for several years. Apart from small advertisements on the stop signs, there was also messy graffiti. There was a hole in the awning, and of the three plastic seats fixed below it, only one could be sat upon. The other two had either been broken or thrown away. Only their rusty bases were left, amassing water and containing a few barbecue sticks stuck inside.

With a black school bag hanging from one shoulder, Lu Shi passed under the dense, messily intersected, black electric wires and walked home.

He had earphones in his ears. The black earphone's cord contrasted against his neckline and cold white skin, it winded around and finally disappeared into the pocket of his clothes.

Arriving down a flight of stairs, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded.

A stray orange cat that was lying down and dozing off was startled by the sound of the whistle and ran for it.

Lu Shi stopped, turned around, and saw a Maybach 62S with a yellow license plate. Its body was much longer than a regular car, occupying most of the road.

The triangular metal logo in the front of the car and its shiny black body were out of place when compared with the entire Qingchuan Road.

The door of the driver's seat opened and a driver wearing white gloves exited the car and respectfully opened the door of the back seat.

Lu Shaochu, who was wearing a dark blue suit, eventually looked straight at Lu Shi who was standing still.

Their two gazes met, but Lu Shi had no intention of opening his mouth to speak.

Ultimately, Lu Shaochu spoke first.

The smile lines on his cheeks were deep. His masseter muscles moved slightly as he spoke in a deep voice, "Still want me to personally get out of the car and invite you?"

Lu Shi got in the car.

Inside, the car was very spacious, covered in dark gray carpets with the intelligent control fragrance system operating. There was a strong scent in the air, which made Lu Shi feel stifled and even nauseous.

Half of the dial on Lu Shaochu's wrist was exposed as he placed his hands on his knees. He told the driver to turn off the light music then turned to Lu Shi. "Do I have to come to you?"

Lu Shi didn't answer, simply saying, "Change places before talking."

He meant something along the lines of, 'Don't you think that you and your car being here seem abrupt and unsuitable?'

Lu Shaochu watched Lu Shi for a few seconds then instructed the driver, "Go to Auspicious Luxury Hotel."

The Maybach drove slowly out of Qingchuan Road, leaving the shabbiness and noise behind.

Lu Shaochu pinched the space between his brows and asked, "Just came back from school?"

"Mn."

"At this time, the monthly exams have passed, right? Received first place again?"

"Mn."

"I checked your account. The money on your card hasn't lessened. What's the matter?"

"I have money myself."

"Lu Shi," Lu Shaochu's voice sank, repressing his anger, "you have money? Where did it come from? Is it that tiny amount of award money from those underground car races? Money made from mixing up with those people from all sorts of trades?"

Seeing Lu Shi's cold expression and him not saying a word, Lu Shaochu stated sternly, "Lu Shi, you're the only heir to my Lu family. Even if you're at a rebellious age and enjoy excitement, don't make fun of your life! Don't you know the severity of this?"

Hearing these words, Lu Shi shifted his eyes and met Lu Shaochu's sight.

The two were father and son with similar nose bridges and mouth corners, but their eyes weren't alike in any way.

A faint ridicule appeared in Lu Shi's eyes and his voice was almost flat. "You took time out of your busy schedule this week because you were afraid I'd have an accident and cause the Lu family to have no successor, so you specially came to scold me? It's really been hard on you."

Lu Shaochu rubbed his temples again.

"I stayed up late for a meeting two days in a row. I don't have that much energy to waste on you."

Lu Shi moved his line of sight towards the outside of the car window. "Then don't waste it, isn't it good to be at peace?"

The car stopped in front of the gate of Auspicious Luxury Hotel.

A manager in an all-black suit was ushering people to wait.

Seeing Lu Shaochu and Lu Shi getting out of the car, the manager hurried up to greet them with a very proper expression and attitude. "Mr. Lu, Young Master Lu, the private room has already been prepared as requested."

Lu Shaochu didn't want to expose his family's ugliness in front of outsiders, so he sorted out his suit and said, "You've worked hard, lead the way." After he finished speaking, he glanced at Lu Shi and saw that he'd followed and hadn't turned on his heels. There was some comfort in his heart- in any case, his son was willing to give him some face.
