Chapter 749: Was Busy

Shen Li stared at his phone and spoke with difficulty.

Second Brother

Lu Huaiyu had already dialed the number.

Old Master Lu seemed to be busy. After a while, he answered,Huaiyu, whats the matter?

Thud

The sound of a chess piece landing on the chessboard could clearly be heard.

Lu Huaiyu paused.

Grandpa, its

Hey! Mei Yanqing! You cant have regrets when you place the chess piece! Why are you regretting your move again? Old Master Lus energetic voice came from the other end of the phone.

Mei Yanqing was very impatient.

My hand just slipped. Whats the problem?

Old Master Lu almost wanted to flip the chessboard:

Your hand slipped? Your hand slipped the first time. How many times has this already happened?

Mei Yanqings voice was even louder than his.

Im eighty! My hands dont work properly!

This sentence was so shocking that even Shen Li could hear it clearly.

Her eyelids twitched.

Lu Huaiyu looked over with a faint smile, and she lowered her head silently.

As long as she could not hear it, she would not be embarra.s.sed

Old Master Lu choked, as if he had not expected Mei Yanqing to be so thick-skinned.

He asked in disbelief, Mei Yanqing, I saw you draw for two hours straight yesterday!

He had even been able to draw a line as thin as a strand of hair, and now he was saying that his hand was not working properly?!

Mei Yanqing scoffed.

Thats called art! What do you know?

Lu Huaiyu took his phone to the side, and Shen Li silently took half a step back.

She really did not really want to hear it.

Old Master Lu was furious, but he was no match for Mei Yanqings eloquence.

However, since that was his grandfather, Lu Huaiyu was kind enough to help him out.

Grandfather.

This voice finally pulled Old Master Lu back to his senses.

He grunted fiercely at Mei Yanqing.

Wait until Im done with Huaiyus call. Were not done with this game of chess yet!

Then, he started chatting with Lu Huaiyu.

Whats wrong, Huaiyu?

Lu Huaiyu smiled.

Nothing much. I just have some good news to report to you Ah Lis final results just came out.

Old Master Lu suddenly sat up straight.

What?

Mei Yanqing, who was sitting across from him, noticed his unusual behavior and raised his eyelids to look over.

Old Master Lu immediately coughed lightly and pretended to behave normally.

Okay, go ahead.

Lu Huaiyu looked at the little girls round hair and pinched her soft and smooth little face.

She did very well in the exam. She got full marks in all thirteen subjects.

Old Master Lu took a deep breath slowly and said in a deep voice, Ah I see Okay, Ive got it. Im going back to my game now so Ill hang up first.

With that, he really ended the phone call. Then, he quickly got up, took his coat, and said to Mei Yanqing, Well, Huaiyu has something for me to do. I have to go home quickly, so Ill be leaving now!

Mei Yanqing frowned as he looked at him.

Whats the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?

Old Master Lu waved his hand.

Its not a big deal. You dont have to worry.

Mei Yanqing pointed at the chessboard.

So, youre not playing anymore?

Had he not said that he would settle the score after the phone call?

Another day, another day!

Old Master Lu did not even bat an eye as he hurriedly shouted.

Qingyun? Were going home!

Fang Qingyun was a little surprised.

Didnt Old Master Lu usually play chess with Old Master Mei for a long time? Why was he going back so early today?

However, seeing that Old Master Lu really seemed to be in a hurry, he did not question him further.

It was not until the car slowly drove away from Jinse Bay Villa that Fang Qingyun asked, Old Master, you

h.e.l.lo? Ah Li? Your final results are out, right? I just heard from Huaiyu that you did very well in your exams!

Old Master Lu had called Shen Li directly.

Fang Qingyun glanced in the rearview mirror. Old Master Lu was beaming away. Where was the anxious look on his face from before?

What gift would Ah Li like? Hey, look, Grandpa is in the Capital now, so far away from you Your Master? Oh, he just said that his hand was feeling a little uncomfortable, so I left. Right, right Hey, what could possibly happen to him? You should choose your gift first

Fang Qingyun,

Elsewhere, Mei Yanqing was sitting alone. He stared at the remnants of the game in front of him, lost in thought.

What was so urgent that Lu Qishan would leave without even finis.h.i.+ng half a game of chess?

A few guesses flashed through his mind before he suddenly thought of something. He immediately picked his phone up from the side and called Shen Li.

The line was busy.

Mei Yanqing called Yu Pingchuan again.

Pingchuan.

Master?

Whats going on with Ah Li today?

Yu Pingchuan was stunned by this sentence.

Nothing right? Whats wrong?

Mei Yanqing frowned.

She was with the Gu family over in Hong Kong City, so nothing should be going on. That was

What about with her school?

Yu Pingchuan thought about it carefully.

Oh right, it seems that Xijing University will be releasing their final results in the next two days. Ah Li should

Before he could finish his sentence, he heard Mei Yanqing curse angrily.

Lu Qishan, that sly old thing!

Shen Li finally ended her phone call with Old Master Lu, but Gu Siyang could not hold himself back any longer.

Cousin, how do you feel about this car today?

Shen Li nodded.

Its pretty good

As long as youre satisfied! So, lets end this test drive for today, okay? Lets go home! Gu Siyangs eyes were gleaming. Mom said that she will personally cook today to help you celebrate!

Liang Sus cooking skills were very good, but it was very difficult for an average person to get her to do so.

Of course, this average person generally meant Gu Siyang.

Shen Li,

It had only been a few minutes, yet this decision had already been made?

She hesitated and said, I like the food cooked by First Aunt very much, but she seems to be quite busy recently, so

Huh?

Gu Siyang handed his phone over. On it was a photo that Gu Tingfeng had just sent.

But theyre already choosing vegetables in the vegetable garden. They want me to ask you if theres anything in particular that you want to eat.

Gu Tingfengs family sometimes lived in the large family mansion, but they also had an independent villa on the outside. This small vegetable garden had been planted by them in their own yard.

Shen Li,

Next came Mei Yanqings phone call. All she could do was hurriedly say, Anything is fine. Im not picky about food.

As she said this, she picked up the phone.

Master?

Hearing this, Gu Siyangs worried heart fell back into her stomach, and he hurriedly sent a message to his father.

Fortunately, both of these people were in the Capital!

Dad! Mom! Were going to win this round!

Mei Yanqings voice sounded completely different from what he had heard on the phone with Lu Huaiyu just now. There was a hint of resentment amidst his calm tone of voice.

Ah Li, your final results have come out. Why didnt you tell Master?

Shen Li held her forehead.

I wanted to tell you

She had not even had the time yet!

Mei Yanqing sighed.

Sigh, Im already eighty. Its normal that Ah Li cant remember me for a moment

Shen Li decided to endure it.

Hows your hand?

Mei Yanqing suddenly paused.

Shen Li said concisely.

Im with Second Brother.

Mei Yanqing was silent for a while.

Oh, its pretty good.

The call finally ended.

Gu Siyang pulled on Shen Li to leave.

Cousin Sister, look, its almost noon. You havent been to our home on Mi Xing Road, have you? Lets go have lunch!

Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows.

Gu Siyang caught a glimpse of him out of the corner of his eye and said hesitantly, Then will Second Master be coming too?

Shen Li thought about it.

Then, let me call Dad again to see if hes free.

As she spoke, she dialed the number again.

After a moment, she was stunned. Why was the line busy?
