Chapter 522: Still Angry

After sending his parents home, Lu Yi drove his car around in search of shops that were still operating. Generally, the shops would close relatively late. As expected, when he reached the main street, it still crowded with people, although it was almost eleven o’clock at night. Moreover, the shops along the street were brightly lit and bustling with customers, as though it was still daytime.

Even at eleven o’clock, the crowd on the street was still massive. It didn’t feel like it was already close to midnight.

He parked the car, and entered a shop which sold mobile phones. Coincidentally, it was the shop where he bought Yan Huan’s handphone not long ago. They were really a couple who faced hardships together. His own mobile phone was also broken a few days after Yan Huan broke hers. Without any hesitation, he walked toward the counter of the phone that was endorsed by Yan Huan.

He was satisfied with the one he bought for Yan Huan previously.

“Mister, do you wish to purchase a new mobile phone?” The shop assistant recognized Lu Yi instantly because he had really distinctive features. That customer had also bought the phone he wanted straight away without negotiating the price or requesting for any free gift. And of course, it was also due to Lu Yi’s outstanding appearance that he was quite difficult to be forgotten.

“I want this.” Lu Yi pointed to a silver-colored mobile phone. He wanted that and did not want to compare anymore.

“Alright.” The shop assistant took out the phone promptly. While raising her head to look at him, she noticed the red handprint on his face. She thought, Could it be a slap from his girlfriend due to an argument, and she threw his phone, so he came back to buy a new one?

Of course, this was only her prediction, so she did not dare to voice it.

After wrapping the phone and placing it in a shopping bag, she passed it to Lu Yi.

As Lu Yi was leaving with the phone, he overheard the shop assistant talking to her colleague.

“Do you see that man with the black windbreaker?”

“Why? He is quite handsome and manly, just my type.”

“I didn’t ask you to look at his face,” The shop assistant that just sold the phone to Lu Yi whispered. “He came here for a new phone just a few days ago, and bought the most costly one without a single word and left. Then he came again today. I think he quarreled with his girlfriend again, who slapped him, so he had to buy another one. Why are all the fine gentlemen nowadays dating that kind of women? Why can’t we get ourselves one of these gentlemen? At least we would never hit them, right?”

Lu Yi slowed down his pace slightly, and touched his own face.

Yeah, it was indeed done by a woman.

He got into the car and inserted his sim card into the new phone. After that, he switched on the phone and video called Yan Huan. The call was answered, but Yan Huan had an irritable expression on her face. How is this asleep? She’s obviously still angry.

Undeniably, she was angry.

Lu Yi knew Yan Huan’s temper very well, or else he would not have insisted on buying a new phone right now. If he didn’t do so, Yan Huan would refuse to speak to him for a few days. She had always had quite a scary temper.

“Didn’t you say that your phone was broken?” Yan Huan threw the book that was in her arms aside. The book was Lu Yi’s favourite, and she would usually take good care of it.

Now that she threw it aside, it felt like she was throwing Lu Yi away.

She was really angry.

“This is a new one.” Lu Yi started the car, getting ready to go home.

At this moment, his features could not be seen clearly in the dim light, so the handprint on his face could not be seen. He did not say much, but he knew that Yan Huan would cool down once she saw him, even though he did not explain himself.

As he expected, Yan Huan moved the phone closer to herself after a short while. She stared at Lu Yi’s blurry features in the dim light.

“Drive carefully,” she pouted and said. Then, she glanced at the clock. It was almost midnight, but still Lu Yi went out. If she was there, she would have certainly gave him a stern scolding...

Indeed, if she was really there, she would dash to the hospital to teach Madam Fang a lesson. She would not care whose mom she was, that woman was not anyone important to her anyway.

Unfortunately, she wasn’t there. Of course, she also did not know what happened.

Lu Yi did not want her to know too.

“Alright.” Lu Yi replied, and stopped in front of the traffic light. He lowered his head, and realized that Yan Huan had picked up the book, and put it aside.

Then, she disappeared. From the phone, he could tell that she was staying at the place that she had stayed at previously. Yan Huan liked the place. She said that there was a huge courtyard, and they could jog around it every morning. Aside from exercising, it could cultivate their responsibilities as well.

Lu Yi continued to drive after the traffic light turned green. The traffic then was much lighter than the traffic during the daytime, so he could reach home in five minutes. However, he drove slowly on purpose to watch what Yan Huan was going to do, and of course the most important thing was that he did not want her to see his swollen face.

He finally understood why people always said that ‘don’t harp about other people’s shortcomings in public, and never hit people on their faces’. Now that the mark was on his face, it was hard for him to conceal it.

Yan Huan filled the tub with warm water and dipped her dainty feet into it. She lifted her chin to see that Lu Yi was still sitting in the car.

“What’s wrong?” She took the phone and placed it in front of her. “Why are you still not home, is it fun out there?”

“Stuck in traffic.”

Lu Yi lied to her in a neutral tone.

In fact, he wasn’t stuck in traffic. He had already parked in front of the house, but he did not get out of the car.

Why is there a traffic jam at this hour? Yan Huan felt that Sea City was too overpopulated. It was always like this, traffic jams in the morning, afternoon, and now there was even traffic congestion at night.

After she was done dipping her legs, she laid in the sheets with her phone. She had no idea when the traffic jam would be over, so she continued to talk to Lu Yi. After a while, she got tired and fell asleep.

When the phone was picked up again, it wasn’t Yan Huan anymore, but Luo Lin.

“She’s asleep. I’m going to hang up, and...” Luo Lin looked at Lu Yi’s face in the dark. “Traffic jams, what a foolish excuse. Luckily she was tired so her brain wasn’t working at full capacity, or else did you think that she would believe you? There’s not even a street light there, how can there be a traffic jam?”
