After Being Transported Into A Book, I Adopted The Villain Chapter 39

The book hasn't explicitly said this so far, but I think the plot of the “novel” that Shen Yu read, starts with the (at least male) characters already being out of high school, and that's why he's shocked that the male lead went to the same school as Tang Li, because it was never mentioned in the “novel” he read. The same way the male lead's background was never explicitly mentioned (which actually seems like a pretty important character point to not touch on in a novel).

On a side note, a question I often find myself asking with plot like this is, if our world was a novel, who would be its main character?

At first Shen Yu had not noticed Yi Heng.

Yi Heng was not grouped up with the other excited students. While the other three students gathered together to laugh and have fun, Yi Heng was sitting alone in the corner near the airport viewing window, looking down at his cell phone with an expression of concentration.

However, Yi Heng's beautiful face stood out amongst the crowd, otherwise Shen Yu would not have seen him as soon as they arrived.

Before Shen Yu could go over to say h.e.l.lo to Yi Heng, he was surrounded by the school leader and teachers who came to welcome him enthusiastically.

Shen Yu's ident.i.ty, no matter where he goes, is like that of a brilliantly shining star.

Even now for example, the school leader and teachers are turning into sticky taffy, clinging to Shen Yu and following him around. Not only does Shen Yu have zero chance to talk to Yi Heng, but even when he goes to the bathroom, he has to imply to those people not to follow him anymore.

The school leader immediately understood Shen Yu's implication, and suddenly his face turned bright red. He quickly waved his hand and said, “Our apologizes Mr. Shen, we will wait for you in the boarding area.”

“…” Shen Yu gloomily steered the wheelchair into the bathroom.

By the time he came back, it was boarding time.

So, the large group went to the boarding gate, and the silent Yi Heng naturally trailed at the end of the group.

Shen Yu, who was pushed by Uncle Zhang, lead the way, followed by an expressionless Tang Li and chattering school leader, while the teachers led their students behind them.

As always, Yi Heng acted antisocial. Although his teacher was right in front of him, he never said a word to him, only chatting to the other students to answer the occasional question.

Yi Heng didn't intend to talk to anyone. He kept his head buried, and his hair hung down on his forehead, covering his eyes and half of his face.

Shen Yu could not see his expression clearly.

“Brother Shen Yu.”

Tang Li's sudden words pulled Shen Yu back from his dazed state. Tang Li was looking straight at him. His dark eyes, which appeared bottomless in that moment, seemed to carry a hint of sadness in them.

Shen Yu smiled, touched Tang Li's hair and said, “What's wrong?”

Tang Li didn't speak for a moment and then shook his head: “Nothing.”

Shen Yu didn't take this interaction to heart and was pushed forward by Uncle Zhang.

However, when Shen Yu turned his head again, trying to observe the movements of Yi Heng, he found that his sight was blocked by Tang Li.

Tang Li's eyes were filled with innocence: “Brother Shen Yu, were almost to the security check. Don't be distracted.”

Shen Yu: “…”

This petty little villain is absolutely doing this on purpose!

Only in the face of this person, Shen Yu could not say anything. He could hold back his words and turn his head his head.

Hey…

This is my own child…

What else can this poor parent do? Of course the little villain was forgiven.

Shen Yu sadly thought about New Year's Eve at the seaside, what he said to Uncle Zhang was like a Flag…

He really is to forgiving…

Before arriving at the waiting room, Uncle Zhang had already checked Shen Yu's wheelchair with the rest of the luggage. Right now, Shen Yu is sitting in a special aviation wheelchair made for air travel. He pa.s.sed through the handicap security channel unimpeded and arrived at the special position for wheelchair parking on the plane.

There were three seats behind him – Uncle Zhang was by the window, Tang Li was in the middle, and currently, no one sat by the aisle.

When the school leader, the teachers, and the students were being seated, Shen Yu saw a thin figure at the end of the aisle corridor.

It was Yi Heng.

Yi Heng wore a simple white T-shirt and jeans, which highlighted his pale skin. However, when looking closely, Shen Yu found that Yi Heng's skin color appeared sickly.

Seeing this, Shen Yu couldn't help frowning.

The little male lead's condition seemed even worse than he had imagined.

Yi Heng was very sensitive. He immediately noticed Shen Yu's eyes. He even raised his eyes and threw a straight and indifferent gaze back.

For a time, four eyes collided.

A slight sense of embarra.s.sment slowly spread through the air.

Of course, only Shen Yu could sense the embarra.s.sment. Yi Heng was unaffected. He did not stop for even half a second and went straight to the aisle position behind Shen Yu. He put his backpack down and took his seat.

It seems that the child is determined to pretend not to know him.

Shen Yu touched his nose and sighed softly.

When the plane took off, he could not resist. When the flight attendants were pouring water for Yi Heng, Shen Yu inadvertently looked back at him.

Suddenly, in the next second…

Shen Yu's vision was filled with the torso of a little villain.

Shen Yu: “…”

He just can't understand. Does this child have nothing to do all day? As long as he looks at Tang Li, in nine cases out of ten, he can see that the other party is already staring at him.

He couldn't figure out what was so nice to look at.

Shen Yu touched his cheek own subconsciously and then whispered to Tang Li, “Are you still sleepy?”

Tang Li yawned unthinkingly: “A little sleepy.”

Shen Yu felt both amused and helpless. What's more amazing is that he feels like Tang Li is a kid in need of coaxing.

“Sleep.” Shen Yu back looked at Yi Heng, who was asleep with an eye mask on, and turned back to look at Tang Li. “Rest some more, that way you'll have the energy to compete tomorrow.”

“Okay.” Tang Li cleverly closed his eyes and soon his breathing evened out as he fell asleep.

Shen Yu maintained his original posture and watched Tang Li's sleeping face for a while before his eyes fell on Yi Heng again.

Yi Heng wore a plain black blindfold. His slightly long hair was chaotically bound by the blindfold strap. His lips were slightly open, his eyebrows were drawn tight, and his expression was extraordinarily solemn. It seemed that he was dreaming of something bad.

Although Yi Heng is two years older than Tang Li, he is half a head shorter than Tang Li. Now that he was sitting in his seat with his arms crossed, his small serious body seemed a little pitiful.

By contrast, Tang Li, was kept white and tender by Shen Yu [1].

Shen Yu remained silent for a long time. After some time, he suppressed his weird mood and turned around to sit more comfortably.

———————

It takes an hour and a half to fly from S City to Jincheng.

Shen Yu read his work email for a while and suddenly felt sleepy. He adjusted his posture and prepared for a nap.

Just as he was dozing off, Shen Yu was awakened by the cold.

Currently it was the middle of summer and everyone is wearing summer clothes. However, the air-conditioning in the cabin is very powerful. The cool air brushed over Shen Yu's skin, making him break out in goose b.u.mps.

Shen Yu took a breath and rubbed his cold arm.

He turned to look at Tang Li, who was sleeping with his head hung to the side, his mouth was puckered, and his eyebrows were wrinkled. He looked too serious, like a little old man who was holding a national policy conference.

Shen Yu burst out laughing.

His sudden laughter was particularly abrupt in the quiet environment. Fortunately, he swallowed the rest of the voice back into his throat in time and did not wake up the others.

It's just…

 At some point, Yi Heng had taken off his blindfold. Yi Heng looked at him with an indifferent expression. After he met Shen Yu's eyes with his own gaze, instead of turning away, he seemed to be studying Shen Yu.

Shen Yu thought about it and tried to squeeze out a smile that he thought looked kind. He said in a warm voice, “Little Heng, do you remember me?”

“I don't remember,” Yi Heng answered stiffly.

Shen Yu: “…”

This kind of answer made him unable to reply.

Shen Yu knew that Yi Heng didn't want to talk with him, so he planned to find some footing for himself to interact with the little male lead. However, before he could go on to the next step, he saw Yi Heng suddenly close his eyes and turn his head back to sleep.

The intention of refusal is very obvious.

Shen Yu: “…”

Ah…

This hero is really hard to get along with.

Shen Yu recalled that when Tang Li first came to the Shen house, he also erected sharp little thorns like Yi Heng, but the defensive state of Tang Li did not last long, and gradually he became like a cute puppy.

Looking back, Shen Yu was now a little grateful that the villain of the original novel was Tang Li, not Yi Heng.

Shen Yu turned back and sat silently for a moment. Then he called the flight attendant over for four blankets – one for him, one for Uncle Zhang, one for Tang Li and one for Yi Heng.

Because of Shen Yu's limitations, he had to wake up Uncle Zhang and get him to put the blankets on Tang Li and Yi Heng.

“Uncle Zhang, pull down Chestnut's blanket a little.” When it was Tang Li's turn, Shen Yu suddenly acted like an old mother. “His legs may get cold in those shorts.”

Uncle Zhang immediately answered by pulling down the blanket to cover the little villain's legs.

Now, Tang Li's upper body was exposed to the cold air.

Tang Li seemed to feel a little cold in his sleep. He held his arms and shrank his head down into his shoulders. He looked weak and helpless.

Shen Yu: “… Pull it up again.”

Uncle Zhang gently pulled the blanket up. Now it covered the upper body of Tang Li, but unfortunately his legs were exposed again.

Shen Yu was speechless and simply picked up the blanket on him and handed it to Uncle Zhang. “Cover his legs with this.”

“How can this be acceptable…” Uncle Zhang frowned. He refused Shen Yu and asked the flight attendant to bring another blanket. Only then did he cover Tang Li tightly from head to foot.

At last, Shen Yu showed a satisfied smile.

Uncle Zhang sighed, “Sir, you are too worried. Young master Tang Li is in good health. This level of cold can still be tolerated.”

"If he caught a cold, I would only be more worried in the end." Shen Yu said, “It's always good to pay extra attention to these things.”

Uncle Zhang sighed, “You spoiled him too much.”

Shen Yu smiled and said nothing. He then tightened his blanket and was ready to go to bed again since it was still early.

The atmosphere soon quieted down.

Almost all the people sitting in this area are asleep. Only two or three people were listening to music or reading silently. It's so quiet that they could hear the sound of air flowing in the cabin.

Yi Heng had been attempting to sleep but couldn't seem to quiet his mind.

Much to his annoyance, as long as he closed his eyes, the picture of Shen Yu staring at Tang Li's sleeping face and giggling appeared in his mind.

He knew that Tang Li was only Shen Yu's adopted child, but he didn't think that Shen Yu would treat Tang Li with such care as if Tang Li was really his own son.

Yi Heng couldn't figure it out.——

How can there be such a person as Shen Yu in the world?

Even his own parents didn't care so much for him, but Shen Yu could pull out all his concerns and considerations for a stranger who held no blood relationship to him.

Yi Heng remembered his mother, who often slapped him, and his father, who ignored his pain in order to maintain a superficial marriage.

Suddenly, he was jealous of Tang Li.

Yi Heng opened his eyes slowly, and the dark red blanket that was laid on him was the first thing to catch his eye. He quietly turned his head to look at the sleeping Tang Li next to him.

Tang Li had two blankets on him, one on his upper body and one covering his legs. At Shen Yu's urging, the housekeeper pulled the blanket up to his neck and tightly tucked Tang Li in.

On the contrary, the blanket on Yi Heng's body laid loosely.

Yi Heng hung his head and gazed at his blanket for a long time.

The next second, it felt like acid rushed up his throat.

[1] I think this is saying that Yi Heng seems sadly adultish for his age while the larger Tang Li seems appropriately childish.
