Chapter 77: Chapter 77 Adorable
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The entire land was engulfed in the warmth of the afternoon sun, and everything was brimming with the energy of life.
Lu Yang’s mood was unaffected by the rumors in the morning. She was preoccupied with her own affairs while Lu Mingyu and Chen Su had work to do.
He Huaijing provided her a list of books in the afternoon and instructed her to visit the school library that same time to find some resources.
Lu Yang got into a taxi and sped off. As it was still early, when she saw a nicely decorated dessert shop by the road, she called out, “Stop here for a moment.”
She walked in and ordered a mousse cake and a matcha latte.
The person who served the food was a skinny young girl with short hair.
“Thank you,” Lu Yang said subconsciously.
When the girl saw her face, her mouth opened in shock, and her hand holding the tray trembled with excitement.
“A-Are you Lu Yang?!”
Lu Yang raised his head and met her excited eyes. She pursed her lips. “Do I look very similar to her?”
The girl nodded heavily. “Yes! It’s exactly the same!”
She then mused, “Huh? Similar?” The girl suddenly realized something.
“It looks like the surgery was a success,” Lu Yang mumbled to herself.
Her voice was neither loud nor soft, but the girl heard it.
The smile on the girl’s face instantly dropped.
“Plastic surgery? So, this is a fake?” she thought.
Although she looked down at the plastic surgery, the waitress still smiled. “I’m sorry. I have mistaken you for someone else.”
“It’s fine. That means my surgery is very successful,” Lu Yang replied.
Whatever makes you happy.”
The world was full of wonders.
The girl groaned, pursed her lips, and walked away.
Lu Yang turned her attention back to the food before her. She heard a sweet voice just as she was about to pick up the spoon to begin eating the cake.
“Why is Sister Yangyang saying that she’s not Sister Yangyang?”
Lu Yang looked toward the source of the voice and realized that a little boy in a stylish outfit was staring at her.
Jiang Jinshi went straight to the Lu residence after leaving Laneway, but he remembered that his parents had said that he should not go to other people’s houses empty-handed.
In addition, Jiang Jinsh remembered that Lu Yang liked sweet things, so he asked the uncle who drove the car to send him to the best dessert shop. The young boy blinked and gazed at her with his grapes-like dark eyes.
He was simply adorable.
Lu Yang scanned her surroundings but didn’t see any other adults. “Where are your parents?”
“Xiaoshi doesn’t have a father, and my mother isn’t in Yonkers.”
So his name was Xiaoshi.
While Lu Yang was thinking about what to say, Jiang Jinshi once again asked, “Sister Yangyang, why did you lie?”
Lu Yang suddenly felt guilty and thought, “Am I teaching the next generation bad things?”
Jiang Jinshi acted like an adult and lectured, “Sister Yangyang, children
shouldn’t lie.”
Lu Yang was at a loss for words for being categorized as a child. “Wait. Do you know me?” she asked after realizing something was amiss.
‘Yes!”
Lu Yang’s bright eyes looked straight at him, hoping that he would continue. In the end, Jiang Jinshi thought that it was just a game of staring at each other, so he gave up after a while.
“Sister Yangyang, you win. I blinked just now.”
Lu Yang was rendered speechless.
The sound of a stomach rumbling suddenly rang out, and Jiang Jinshi hurriedly looked away in embarrassment.
“I was in a rush and forgot to eat,” he said, embarrassed.
“How can this child forget to eat?” Lu Yang thought, and she chuckled. She moved in a little and patted the seat next to her. “You can sit here.” “Okay!” Jiang Jinshi was overjoyed.
Lu Yang ordered a cup of hot chocolate milk and two doughnuts.
The donut was specially cut out on the edges and looked extremely alluring.
Lu Yang first divided the mousse cake into two pieces and placed it in front of Jiang Jinshi. Her voice softened. “Xiaoshi, you can eat this first. After you’re done, I’ll take you to your family.”
“Mhm.”
Jiang Jinshi took a sip of his milk and puffed up his cheeks. “Sister Yangyang, are you going to Hialeah? “he asked.
“Hialeah?”
She couldn’t even keep up with the thoughts of a child.
Lu Yang forked a piece of cake into his mouth and vaguely replied, “Somewhat.”
She was going to take him to the police station, and the police would contact his family.
The big screen in the dessert shop was playing the video of Qin Yitan apologizing on Twitter.
He supported his body with one hand with difficulty, and his eyes was desperately looking at the camera.
“I, Qin Yitan, apologize to Lu Yang and Lu Mingyu. I was the one who accused you without any reason. I’m sorry!”
The sweat on Qin Yitan’s forehead was enough to show how difficult it was for him to do this.
The apology video that was supposed to have a heavy atmosphere had turned into a funny video.
There weren’t many customers at this time, and the waiter in the shop was holding the remote control and smiling so widely that his teeth could not be seen.
“I thought there won’t be any follow-up to this incident when I saw it. I didn’t expect Lu Yang to really make Qin Yitan apologize. I heard that the trophies in the background of the video were all obtained by Qin Yitan through illegal means. They should have been Lu Mingyu’s. Lu Yang is killing two birds with one stone!”
The girl stomped her feet in excitement. If it weren’t for the fact that there were customers in the store, she would have screamed.
Jiang Jinshi heard the voice and turned to look at Lu Yang. “Sister Yangyang, you’re the coolest in my heart. You’re even cooler than my uncle!”
Lu Yang didn’t understand. “Why did he suddenly praise me?” she wondered.
She reached out her hand and ruffled his soft hair. She smiled and said, “You’re also very adorable.”
Jiang Jinshi revealed his sharp teeth and laughed with vigor.
When the doughnuts were served, the sickeningly sweet taste of syrup mixed with a strong milky smell assailed her nose.
At this moment, the taste had yet to dissipate, and Lu Yang’s appetite had already reached its limit.
She picked up the doughnuts through the tissue and handed them to Jiang Jinshi.
“Thank you, Sister Yangyang,” Jiang Jinshi replied.
“You’re welcome,” Lu Yang replied.
“Huh? Why did Xiaoshi stop moving?”
Zhao Yanshu was driving toward the Lu residence. He noticed the GPS tracker had stopped moving when he was waiting for the traffic light.
“Where is he?” Jiang Yanzhou asked.
“He went into a dessert shop.”
It seemed that the child who had run away from home was hungry.
Jiang Yanzhou was speechless.
Zhao Yanshu turned around. “Should we go to the Lu residence or the dessert shop instead?”
“The dessert shop.”
The first thing that struck Jiang Yanzhou and Zhao Yanshu as they entered the dessert shop were Jiang Jinshi and Lu Yang sitting side by side and holding a doughnut each. They opened their mouths at the same time and chewed a few times. Then, they turned to look at each other and smiled with satisfaction.
It was an obvious joy.
They shared an unspoken understanding and love.
Zhao Yanshu was taken aback. ‘Why is Sister Yangyang here? And… they look like biological siblings!”
They appear to be wearing matching black clothes, and even Lu Yang and Lu Mingyu do not share such a resemblance..
