电车狼

The young miss sat on a soft cushion on the floor, lazily basking in the sunlight with her eyes half-closed. The sunshine made her skin appear even more translucent, which in turn made the black earphone wire running along her cheek to the tablet even more conspicuous.

The usually troublesome young miss had rarely become quiet, and Lu Tu, as if afflicted by some strange ailment, felt a subtle sensation stirring in his heart.

He wondered, what is she listening to? Does the young miss also obsess over online singers like those cousins of hers?

Butler Lu, who had been sitting behind to watch over the young miss, finally couldn't contain himself and stood up self-righteously.

Jiang Yan was immersed in her world of sound when suddenly she heard the faint friction of leather shoes against the floor. Immediately after, the sound in her earphones abruptly cut off!

Jiang Yan reached out to feel around, discovering her tablet was gone. She frowned and asked, "Who's there?"

Lu Tu had already quietly unplugged the earphones from the tablet and, without a hint of guilt, solemnly told Jiang Yan, "Young miss, listening for too long is bad for your ears."

"Mind your own business," she retorted. This was Jiang Yan's only entertainment, and she commanded, ignoring his advice, "Give it back to me!"

Lu Tu calmly turned off the tablet, lying smoothly with an extremely confident tone, "The tablet's battery is dead."

Jiang Yan didn't buy it, but she didn't want to listen to his fabrications either. She simply got up to search for it herself.

The ill-tempered young miss reached out to find her tablet, feeling her way bit by bit due to her blindness. A hint of anger gathered between her brows, and it seemed she would soon find a way to exact revenge on him. But for now, wanting her possession back, she could only search helplessly.

As the young miss slowly walked over, Lu Tu didn't move or dodge. Instead, he crouched down where he was.

Even as Jiang Yan approached, he extended his arm, silently protecting the sightless young miss.

He shouldn't have gone this far. He could have decisively returned the tablet to her, or casually called a maid to distract her attention. Even more so, he could have pretended not to notice her wearing earphones in the first place.

But the young miss was his exception, always able to make his actions devoid of reason, Lu Tu thought.

That hand, appearing even more slender and snow-white in the sunlight, lightly brushed his hair as she searched for the tablet. Lu Tu's thoughts vanished with a "poof," like a young man dizzy with love in front of his sweetheart.

But what awaited him was not some gentle dream girl, but an extremely bad-tempered and irritable young miss!

Having caught him, Jiang Yan immediately grabbed a fistful of Lu Tu's hair. She bent down, lowering her head along the direction of his hair, and fiercely said, "The tablet, give it to me!"

Dark eyes, a straight nose, and well-shaped lips of a pale color suddenly appeared before him. Moreover, the owner of this exquisite face was unsure of her direction, and her fierce expression meant to scare him was mixed with a hint of uncertainty that could be withdrawn at any moment... it was particularly, well, stirring.

Taking advantage of the young miss's blindness, Lu Tu pushed the tablet along the floor.

The hearing of blind people is often very acute, and Jiang Yan immediately recognized the sound of something sliding. She became a bit anxious and let go of Lu Tu's hair to search for it.

It was in this instant, after drawing the young miss's attention, that Lu Tu quickly stood up. One hand grasped her arm, while the other wrapped around her waist. With a lift and a hoist, Jiang Yan found herself being carried in his arms like a princess.

Jiang Yan could barely react, the anger on her face dissipating into shock.

Meanwhile, under the inquiring gazes of the maids, Lu Tu calmly shifted the responsibility to the young miss, "Your skin has been reddened by the sun. You shouldn't stay in the sunlight for too long either. I'll take you back to your room and apply some medicine."

Jiang Yan's face did feel a bit uncomfortable, but still! This couldn't offset the crime of taking her tablet!

Being carried by the culprit made it even more convenient for Jiang Yan to take action. She directly pinched the flesh of Lu Tu's arm and said through gritted teeth, "Hurry up and give me back my tablet!"
