Chapter 15 - Attacking Lu Shao
The small movements of Lu Jingyi and Yu You inevitably caused the attention of others. Lu Jingyi stood with one knee bent behind Yu You, his head turned sideways and his eyes lowered, keeping a certain gap, but in a half-hug-like posture, it seemed indescribably intimate.
Wei Baocheng stared at Lu Jingyi in surprise. Although he had already guessed that he might have a crush on this girl, what was the matter with this possessive attitude? Before chasing people, delineate the territory first?
Lu Jingyi has a high double quotient, but he seldom takes the initiative to get close to a person. Later, he suffered from post-traumatic sequelae, and he lived a life almost isolated from the world. It’s not that he excludes social interaction, but that he has a beast-like sensitivity to people’s micro-expressions and emotional changes, whether it is sincerity or hypocrisy, he can see through it at a glance, which is one of the reasons why he doesn’t have many friends.
Wei Baocheng and Qin Ning are Lu Jingyi’s children, and their friendship has been established for more than ten years. But this girl named “Yuyou” had only known Lu Jingyi for a few months, and her family background was ordinary. In terms of appearance, she was not as good as Su Wenxuan, the daughter of the Su family. How could Lu Jingyi fall in love with her?
“Xuanxuan.” Zhuo Jingqiao pulled Su Wenxuan’s group pendulum and asked in a low voice, “Young Master Lu already has a girlfriend?”
Su Wenxuan’s eyes dimmed, and she replied softly, “I don’t know, I haven’t heard him mention it.”
Su Wenxuan was Lu Jingyi’s junior high school girl. She fell in love with him at first sight and had a crush on him for five or six years. Through the family relationship, she reluctantly integrated into his circle, but she was never as close as Wei Baocheng and Qin Ning.
Originally thought he was more reserved and gentleman towards all women, but now seeing his casual and lazy appearance, how could he be a little reserved!
“You take good care of them.” Yu You turned to the third video, and was finally able to observe the status of the fish more clearly. The first two videos are long-range views, and you can only watch an outline.
In Lu Jingyi’s aquarium there are more than a dozen ornamental fish, among which is the Red Sea Knight that was cured by Yuyou.
“Is there nothing to improve?” Lu Jingyi asked.
Yuyou watched it several times and said, “It’s hard to make a judgment just by watching the video.”
“Then make an appointment and visit my house.” Lu Jingyi responded naturally.
“Well, let’s wait for the exhibition to end.” Yu You didn’t notice someone’s thoughts at all, and agreed.
Wei Baocheng screamed: Miss, you have been fooled by someone!
“Jing Yi.” Su Wenxuan suddenly said, “Don’t you like diving? Do you want to go into the water to play later?”
“Okay.” Gao Han responded immediately, “I haven’t dived at night yet, so it must be very exciting.”
Lu Jingyi raised his head and asked, “You all brought equipment?”
“Yes.” Su Wenxuan nodded with a smile.
“Unfortunately.” Lu Jingyi said lightly, “I didn’t bring it.”
Su Wenxuan: “…”
Wei Baocheng covered his face: Can the differential treatment be bigger!
“Just go and play if you want, don’t worry about me.” Lu Jingyi wiped his hands, picked up a can of drink and gestured to them.
“Where’s Miss Yu?” Su Wenxuan turned to look at Yu You, “I brought extra swimsuits. Would you like to swim twice in the sea with us?”
Yuyou shook his head and declined: “No need, you can play. The light is not good at night, you should pay attention to safety.”
“Okay then.” Su Wenxuan didn’t bother, she dragged Zhuo Jingqiao into the car to change clothes.
While rummaging through her luggage, Zhuo Jingqiao said strangely, “How could Young Master Lu like that type of girl? She is quiet, not lively at all, her personality and looks are average, and she doesn’t look like a famous family based on her clothes. From a family.”
Su Wenxuan didn’t speak, just put on her swimsuit silently.
“I guess Lu Shao is just trying to be fresh.” Zhuo Jing said to herself, “It’s all like this in your circle, so you don’t need to care too much.”
“Lu Jingyi is different.” Su Wenxuan entrusted her twin peaks, “He has always kept himself clean and never played with women.”
“what do you mean…”
Su Wenxuan looked into the vanity mirror, adjusted her hairstyle, and said calmly, “Six years of secret love may be over.”
Pushing open the car door, Su Wenxuan, who was wearing a bikini, stepped out of the car and walked towards the crowd gracefully.
“Ow~~ Our **** goddess is here.” Wei Baocheng whistled and took the lead in coaxing.
Gao Han took the initiative to meet her, eagerly prepared, his eyes almost glued to her.
Su Wenxuan looked at Lu Jingyi, he didn’t seem to pay attention to her, just concentrated on eating the barbecue that Yuyou handed him.
With bitterness in her heart, she immediately cleared her mind and greeted Gao Han, Wei Baocheng, and Zhuo Jingqiao: “Go, go for a few laps.”
Wei Baocheng loved to join in the fun, took off his shirt, and followed them to the sea.
Yuyou looked at their distant figures, sparkling water in his eyes.
“Can you swim?” Lu Jingyi’s low voice rang in his ears.
“Can.”
“Let’s swim together next time.” Lu Jingyi carried a can of beer and stared at Yuyou beside him.
He wasn’t quite sure how he felt about Yuyou, but he just wanted to mark it first so that others would know that this girl was trapped by him. He usually does things very well, but this time, the domineering attributes that have been hidden for more than 20 years have been activated by someone.
“Hmm.” Yuyou held a piece of potato in his mouth, squinting his eyes, staring at the direction of the sea.
Lu Jingyi looked at her side face, unconsciously fascinated.
[Huhuhahaha, Huhuhahaha, ahahaha… Huhuhuhuhuhu, HE, HE, HE, HE, HE… Hey HE, HE, ahaha, uhuahahahaha…] At this moment , a string of magical laughter accompanied by jingle bells suddenly rang on the silent beach.
Lu Jingyi: “…”
“Sorry, I got a call.” Yu You took out Grandpa Turtle’s phone, got up and walked aside, “Hello?”
[Hello, is this Miss Mermaid in charge of Lanzhou City Flower, Bird and Fish Exhibition? 】
“Yes, are you?”
[My surname is Huang, the owner of the coral aquarium store in Dongwei Water City. 】
Hearing the words “coral aquarium shop”, Yuyou immediately thought of the blacktip shark that was about to die.
[I wonder if Miss Yu still remembers the blacktip shark I saw in my shop a few days ago? 】
“Remember.”
[I’m very sorry, I didn’t believe you at the time, it was really dying, my body was getting weaker and weaker, I invited a lot of people and I couldn’t help it. If possible, I hope you can come over. I will reimburse the return fee. You can mention any conditions, as long as my blacktip shark can be cured. 】
Yuyou was silent for a moment, then said: “Unfortunately, that blacktip shark has been lost. It should be a breed artificially bred in a Southeast Asian farm. It has low immunity and congenital deficiency. It looks healthy on the outside, but in fact it doesn’t live long. Coupled with the cramped living environment and lack of sufficient activity, it is the cause of accelerated aging.”
The other party didn’t say anything for a long time, and Yu You said again: “I estimate that it only has a lifespan of two or two days at most. Boss Huang, what are you going to do with its body?”
【…】
“Can you sell it to me?” Yuyou said, “I’m willing to buy your blacktip shark for 4,000 yuan.”
[4000 yuan to buy the body of a blacktip shark? ] Blacktip sharks have certain medicinal value, and shark fins are also high-quality ingredients, but the value is definitely not more than 3,000 yuan, and the price of Yuyoukai is very good. It’s just that this blacktip shark cost Boss Huang hundreds of thousands, and now it’s a bit reluctant to ask him to sell it to others for thousands of dollars.
“As long as Boss Huang agrees, I’ll find you tomorrow.” Yu You hoped to take the blacktip shark away before it died.
【Let me think about it. 】
After finishing the call, Yu You returned to Lu Jingyi’s side.
“Who is Boss Huang? Are you going to find him tomorrow?” Lu Jingyi asked casually.
“Boss Huang is the owner of an aquarium shop in Dongwei Water City. A blacktip shark he raised is dying. I want to buy it back.” Yu You answered truthfully.
“A dead blacktip shark, what did you buy it for?” And also quoted 4000.
“Naturally useful.” Yu You didn’t want to lie, and could only give him an ambiguous answer.
At this time, the mobile phone received a text message, clicked to open it and read: [Come over tomorrow. 】
“It seems he agreed.” Lu Jingyi glanced at it and said.
Yuyou nodded and put the phone away.
“It takes about 4 hours from here to Dongwei Water City. I’ll drive you there tomorrow. It should be faster to take the expressway.”
Yuyou: “…No need.”
“Don’t be polite to me, that’s it.”
Yuyou: You’re really welcome…
Lu Jingyi sincerely helped, but just “helping” a few minutes’ journey into more than 3 hours, Yuyou was also very helpless.
After 11 o’clock in the evening, everyone should eat and play, and they should pack up and go back to their homes.
Lu Jingyi sent Yuyou back to the store and agreed to pick her up at 7 o’clock tomorrow.
The next day, Lu Jingyi arrived as scheduled, caught up with Yuyou, and went straight to Dongwei Water City.
After sitting in the car for more than 3 hours, after arriving at the destination, the two took advantage of the other party’s inattention, and at the same time heaved a sigh of relief.
Following his memory to find the coral aquarium shop, Yuyou saw the blacktip shark in the aquarium at a glance. It rolled over on the water’s surface, its mouth opened and closed, and it seemed that it didn’t even have the strength to swim.
Yuyou walked to the front of the tank, put his hand into the water, and lightly touched the skin of the blacktip shark. The blacktip shark turned sideways with difficulty and rubbed her fingers.
Although it is a member of the shark family, they are gentle, curious, and occasionally shy, and rarely attack humans unless threatened. Wild blacktip sharks can generally live to 2-30 years old, and this blacktip shark is only over 9 years old.
If only she had met a few months earlier, it would be too late now.
“You’re here.” Boss Huang’s sullen voice came from behind him, “Find another fish tank yourself, and you can take it away after paying for it.”
“Okay.” Yuyou transferred 4,000 yuan to him, and then temporarily rented an aquarium, put the blacktip shark in it, and had them moved to Lu Jingyi’s back compartment.
“Where are you going now?” Lu Jingyi asked, looking at the fish tank behind him.
“go to beach.”
The driver drove the car to the road near the sea, Yuyou got out of the car, fished the blacktip shark out of the water, and carried it towards the sea.
Lu Jingyi slowly followed behind her with doubts.
Yuyou took off her shoes, stepped into the sea with bare feet, reached out and touched the skin of the blacktip shark, and then threw it hard into the sea.
The blacktip shark drew an arc in the air, like a sharp sword plunging straight down.
Thumping, splashing a piece of spray, then the figure turned into a line shadow, cruising in the sea, that agile posture, not like dying at all.
Surprise flashed in Lu Jingyi’s eyes, is this blacktip shark pretending to be weak? The acting is also great!
Whoa! The blacktip shark jumped out of the sea, and the fish waved its tail, conveying its happiness.
“What’s this…” Lu Jingyi was about to ask something, but when he turned his head, he saw that Yu You had taken off his shirt and hot pants, leaving only a white suspender and a pair of black anti-smudge shorts.
Throwing down the glasses, one jumped, jumped into the sea, and swam with the blacktip shark alternately, competing with each other.

Lu Shao: Let go of my fish and let me come!
