Chapter 66: Chapter 66 April Willow Catkins, Make People’s Hearts Itch

In that instant, Shen Liguang felt a pang of pain in his heart, and it suddenly became heavy.

For some reason, his breathing slowed, each breath tugging at the tenderest part of his heart.

Qian Zheng and Wu Xiaowu were taken aback by the girl’s reaction, then remembered how the boss had once gotten fierce with the young lady during a fire drill in high school.

Qian Zheng touched his nose: "Today’s young ladies really hold grudges, huh? It’s been so long, and she still remembers you being tough on her, came to take revenge on you."

Wu Xiaowu: "..."

Fu Ying had never dared to look at him for so long, and realizing this, she panicked, lowered her head, and ran away.

"Take my car and leave, come to pick me up tomorrow morning." Shen Liguang threw the keys to Qian Zheng and chased after Fu Ying who had run off.

Fu Ying was speeding, feeling extremely awkward, like a headless fly stumbling through the crowd.

Shen Liguang kept following behind her until she was tired of running and stopped due to spraining her foot.

Seeing the girl sitting down on the ground, Shen Liguang was just about to step forward when she suddenly started to cry.

Sitting on the ground with her face buried in her arms, she cried her heart out.

Shen Liguang felt like he was about to go crazy.

He clenched his fists tightly and approached the girl, squatting in front of her.

Fu Ying was in tears, looking up at the figure in front of her, she didn’t expect he would follow her; she stubbornly turned her face away quickly, refusing to look at him or let him see her in this disheveled state.

"Why are you crying?"

He asked softly.

Fu Ying shook her head without speaking.

But because of his question, her eyes felt irritated again.

Shen Liguang took a deep breath and picked her up in his arms.

She was very light.

Fu Ying was in a panic.

Afraid he would find her heavy.

She struggled and tried to escape.

The man warned in a suppressed voice: "Don’t move."

Hearing this, Fu Ying settled down.

She was only afraid she might grow too fond of his embrace, so much so that she might think of him when held by someone else later.

Fu Ying didn’t utter a word, allowing him to take her home.

She didn’t understand why he was so gentle with her, almost leading her to a delusion.

Mistakenly thinking that he liked her too.

Fu Ying bit her lip, feeling distressed, knowing that she was living in a fool’s paradise.

"Sit quietly on the sofa."

He placed Fu Ying on the sofa, his tone commanding.

Fu Ying obeyed, sitting quietly on the sofa without moving a muscle.

Seeing him again.

He was holding a medical kit, walking over to her and squatting down, reaching out to take off her shoes.

Fu Ying began to panic, hastily reaching out to stop him: "Don’t."

"What’s wrong?"

Fu Ying lowered her head: "I think feet are very private; they should only be seen by one’s husband."

Shen Liguang’s eyes darkened as he looked down.

Only to be seen by one’s husband...

So not for him to see.

"Heh."

Shen Liguang couldn’t help but laugh.

"Give me your hand."

For some reason, Fu Ying realized, he seemed angry.

Thinking he found her bothersome, she immediately extended her hand.

That hand was smeared with blood, the wound long and fine; her hand was so small, his could wrap around it completely.

Shen Liguang held her small hand, wiped away the blood, and applied disinfectant.

Fu Ying, with her head bowed, heard the sound of her own heartbeat, terrified he could hear it too.

Neither spoke, the atmosphere wasn’t awkward, but there was a peculiar tension hanging in the air.

"Don’t keep it covered, it’s hot."

After a while, he spoke up.

Fu Ying nodded: "Mhm."

"Later, I’ll send you home."

Fu Ying bowed her head and said softly, "I don’t want to go back, brother, please let me stay with you."

"Did you have a fight with your family?"

Fu Ying shook her head: "Because there’s someone I can’t stand."

Shen Liguang stared at her for a long time before saying, "Then I’ll call your dad."

Fu Mingchuan was stunned when he received Shen Liguang’s call.

He knew his daughter had feelings for Shen Liguang, and now she was at his house...

But either way, as long as she’s safe, that’s what matters.

Fu Mingchuan thanked Shen Liguang: "Thank you for your trouble, Liguang."

"No problem, Uncle Fu."

"Yeah, I’d like to have a word with Yingying."

Shen Liguang turned to look at Fu Ying, only to realize that at some point, she had curled up on the sofa and fallen asleep.

"She’s asleep."

"Then, that’s fine."

After hanging up, Shen Liguang walked over to the couch.

The girl slept peacefully, truly making it difficult to disturb her.

There was air conditioning in the living room, and Shen Liguang took a blanket from the bedroom to cover her.

...

Li Ruolan was about to go home after closing her small eatery when she was stopped.

"Li Guang’s mom, Li Guang’s mom, your kid has finally come to his senses, he brought a girl home."

"Brought a girl?" Li Ruolan’s face lit up with joy, "Really? What’s the girl like?"

That person recalled: "Anyway, pretty attractive, so you should worry no more about having a daughter-in-law."

"I’ll go home and have a look."

"Li Guang’s mom, if I were you, I wouldn’t go up. Young people should be left alone. Maybe it’s a young couple’s date."

Li Ruolan covered her mouth laughing: "Old Zhao, you’re quite right. I’ll just make do at the eatery tonight."

"Hahaha, maybe you’ll get to hold a grandchild tonight!"

Li Ruolan waved her hand: "How could that be? My son probably won’t touch a girl unless he’s married. Besides, she’s no ordinary girl. Anyway, I’m heading back to the eatery."

Li Ruolan was extremely happy, greeting familiar faces with a smile as she returned.

Shen Liguang waited at home for a long time without seeing Li Ruolan return, which made him worried, so he made a phone call.

On the phone, Li Ruolan could hardly hide her giggles: "I’m not coming back tonight, I’ll stay at the eatery, it’s also convenient for selling breakfast in the morning. I’m tired, going to sleep."

Shen Liguang didn’t even get a chance to speak before Li Ruolan hung up.

Shen Liguang looked back at the girl on the sofa; she was deeply asleep with no sign of waking.

Shen Liguang bent down intending to carry her into the bedroom, but the girl moved, her arm hooking around his neck, pulling him down, then holding him tightly in her embrace.

Murmuring in her sleep, the words unclear, Shen Liguang couldn’t understand a word.

But.

They were too close, the girl’s lips brushing against his ear, breathing out a warm breeze that lingered.

Shen Liguang’s gaze darkened, he carefully removed her hand, then stepped back a distance.

His gaze was a bit intense, falling on her face, lingering on her lips.

Then quickly looked away, cursing in his mind.

Feeling oppressed, the impulse hard to suppress.

He quickly distanced himself from the girl, going to the balcony to smoke.

The night deepened, both moonlight and stars present.

Who knows from where, a firefly appeared, flying chaotically in the living room.

Shen Liguang stood on the balcony, his tall figure leaning against the security bars, eyes fixed on the sofa.

Puffing on his cigarette, his thoughts countless.

He thought it was hard to love someone and not obtain their affection.

Turns out waiting for someone is hard too.

He wished time would pass quickly, for the girl to grow up.

Yet he also feared the swift passage of time, that he wouldn’t withstand the years, aging too fast.

Girl.

You truly are the catkins in April, causing such yearning.
