After Being Transported Into A Book, I Adopted The Villain Chapter 47 Part1

I broke this into two parts.

So I was crunching the numbers, and a.s.suming that each chapter in a Chinese web novel has an average English word count of 2,000, then those translators that work on projects with 1000 chapters or more are writing upwards of 2 million words.

The average English novel is roughly 100,000 – 175,000 words. Which means that they're translating the equivalent of between 10 – 20 full length books.

Wrap your head around that one.

During these past five years, Shen Yu's legs also gradually improved.

Although he can now basically walk around, it's still difficult for him to walk and jump freely, and as long as he walks fast, his legs will be sore or even start twitching.

Doctor Liu checked Shen Yu's symptoms, saying only that the deep tissue scars from the car accident were serious, so they should increase the exercise plan in the future.

For convenience, Uncle Zhang prepared a pair of crutches for Shen Yu.

In addition to the necessary rehabilitation training, people like Shen Yu usually use crutches to walk. In strict sense, despite getting rid of wheelchairs, there are still many inconveniences.

Ah…

Shen Yu always said that he had been used to being disabled for a long time.

However, if you can walk normally, who would like to be a disabled person who has difficulty even trotting?

Tang Li has always been sensitive. Ever since the beginning, he noticed Shen Yu's depressed mood and said he wanted to take Shen Yu out to relax.

Now, Shen Yu doesn't outright reject going out like he before. He held his cheek in his hand absentmindedly and looked at Tang Li's face. He asked, “Where do you want to go?”

Tang Li said, “No matter where you want to go, I will accompany you.”

Shen Yu thought for a while before he said, “Let's go and see the cherry blossoms then.”

“Okay.” Tang Li laughed and his beautiful phoenix eyes arched into cheery crescent-moons. He leaned over and held Shen Yu's right hand gently. “Anything you want.”

Shen Yu couldn't help but break open Tang Li's hand and reach up to pinch Tang Li's cheek.

But as he lifted his hand into mid-air, he suddenly realized what he was about to do, and his expression became a little awkward. He dropped his hand back to his side.

Tang Li noticed Shen Yu's awkward behavior, blinked, and looked at him with a questioning expression.

Shen Yu sighed, “You have grown up.”

Children of Tang Li's age are full of pride, and they usually don't like to be touched by others on their hair and cheeks.

He just didn't want to admit that Tang Li really grew up.

It's not just age, height and appearance changes, but also temperament and psychological changes…

Tang Li's appearance was gorgeous and aggressive before, but now there was a more elegant and bewitching beauty to the growing villain.

His eyes were dark and deep, like a bottomless lake without any ripples. His upper eyes always have a sense of distance. His lips are very pale. Even now, they seem to be malnourished.

The most important thing is that——

Tang Li was only a soph.o.m.ore in senior high school, and his height had already broken through the barrier of 1.8 meters. When he stood opposite Shen Yu, he needed to bow his head slightly in order to get a better view of Shen Yu!

Whenever Shen Yu thought of these things, he felt as if he has been stabbed in the heart.

Heaven's bias is too much!!!

Shen Yu's heart was already sad, and he had not responded yet. Suddenly, Shen Yu saw Tang Li grab his hand before he immediately put his own cheek in the captured hand.

“Don't you like pinching my face?” Tang Li spoke softly while rubbing Shen Yu's hand like a kitten.

Tang Li's one question pierced Shen Yu's defenses. Shen Yu, who was always thin-skinned, felt embarra.s.sed. He tried to pull his hand back unconsciously but found that Tang Li gripped his hand tightly and had no intention of letting go.

Shen Yu's cheeks were burning red and he reb.u.t.ted with a hard scalp: “I'm just pinching and playing.”

“Then you can play now.” Tang Li was smiling, and his black eyes were full of deep laughter. He said, “I don't mind.”

Shen Yu squeezed Tang Li's face reluctantly.

It still feels so good.

It looks tight but when it's pinched, it's as soft as a marshmallow.

Afterwards, while Tang Li was not paying attention, Shen Yu quickly took his hand back.

“How could you let someone touch your face so casually?” Shen Yu picked up the crutch and got up from the chair in front of the desk, “Shouldn't it only be your girlfriend who can touch your face?”

Tang Li stood up with him, turning away from Shen Yu and looking down in an instant.

Shen Yu: “…”

He felt like his chest had been pierced.

Tang Li, who usually follows Shen Yu like a little tail, said in a wronged tone, “I don't have a girlfriend.”

When Shen Yu staggered out of the study with a crutch, he stopped and turned to look at the “little tail” behind him. "By the way, do you have any girls you like in school?”

Shen Yu was genuinely curious and inquisitive.

Who knew that this one question would have touched Tang Li's bottom line?

Shen Yu was also shocked by his sudden reaction. He looked at Tang Li in a daze and dared not speak for a moment.

The two men stood at the door of the study, for a long time. Tang Li's expression became more and more serious. He stared at Shen Yu without turning his eyes away. Then he asked with a suspicious tone, “Why did you suddenly ask such a question?”

Shen Yu slowed down and noticed something was wrong. He pretended to laugh lightly and said, “I guessed it?”

“No.” Tang Li immediately shook his head like a rattle drum. “I don't have anyone I like.”

Shen Yu pouted his lips, apparently not believing Tang Li's answer.

If Tang Li had n.o.body in mind, why did he react so fiercely just now?

Unfortunately, before Shen Yu could speak his doubts, his wrist was once again grabbed by Tang Li. Shen Yu looked up and saw Tang Li's fast approaching face. There was no superfluous expression on his face and his deep eyes seemed to be suppressing something.

“You asked me this…” Tang Li deliberately dampened his tone, but it was difficult to hide his emotional panic, “Because you have someone you like?”

Shen Yu was shocked: “I…”

“Didn't you promise!” Tang Li was obviously out of control, but he couldn't calm himself down at all. It was like he was on the verge of pure mania, “You won't get married until I'm an adult!”

Although Tang Li intentionally controlled the strength of his hands, he still pinched Shen Yu's wrists until they hurt and even turned pale.

Shen Yuba said loudly, “When did I say I was going to get married?”

Tang Li was stunned for a moment. Just like that, Shen Yu's voice pulled him back from the abyss, almost like magic.

“I… I'm sorry…" After watching Tang Li, Shen Yu realized that he had lost his att.i.tude and had become very confused.

He quickly released Shen Yu's hand and saw several clear and visible fingerprints pinched into his white wrist. He felt his eyes p.r.i.c.kle with pain, and soon his vision became blurred with unshed tears.

“Sorry, I'm sorry… I didn't mean to…" Tang Li was like a child who has done something wrong and realized that he made a mistake that was irreversible. He timidly wanted to pull Shen Yu's hand, but he shrunk back in fear of hurting him again. "Sorry Shen Yu, I just can't control it. I…”

“It's all right.” Shen Yu rubbed his wrist and interrupted Tang Li's words.

This was a sentence Shen Yu often says, one that has become his habit.

Afterall, this wasn't the first time Tang Li's mood has collapsed.

The only thing that makes Shen Yu feel strange is that over the past five years, he has put all kinds of burdens on Tang Li's shoulders. Tang Li has not let out a single word of complaint, and instead has carried the burden in silence.

So, why does Tang Li lose control every time it comes to whether he is married or has a girlfriend?

They have been living together for six years. Is Tang Li still so insecure?

Shen Yu sighed, patted Tang Li on the shoulder, and said wearily, “I have promised you countless times that I will not marry or have a girlfriend before you grow up. Do you have so little faith in me?”

Tang Li's eyes were red and looked pitiful. Even his voice became hoa.r.s.e. “I just don't believe in myself.”

Every time Shen Yu faced Tang Li like this, his scolding words could not come out even if they brewed like fire in his stomach. He could only comfort him by saying, “You are a clever child, but don't overthink things too much.”

Tang Li closed his eyes and nodded.

Shen Yu reached out to wipe the tears from Tang Li's eyes. He wanted to say something when suddenly, he heard the sound of footsteps behind him.

“Sir.” Uncle Zhang's voice called out.

Shen Yu quickly retracted his hand and turned to Uncle Zhang with his crutch.

Uncle Zhang said, “The list of preparations for the birthday banquet has been drawn up and you need to check it in person.”

“Good,” said Shen Yu happily.

He turned and followed Uncle Zhang to the living room on the first floor.

——————

Standing in the same place, Tang Li watched Shen Yu and Uncle Zhang leave in the same direction for a long time without moving.

His eyes were still red, but his expression was not as grieving and pitiful as before.

It was in a state of complete indifference.

After a long time, Tang Li sighed softly and turned back to the room.

Since he finished all the courses arranged by Shen Yu in the third year of junior middle school, he took two private jobs on the advice of his teacher.

He is not short of money, and he never aims to make money. He just wants to practice.

Unexpectedly, the two software programs he improved for a small company were highly praised by netizens. They became popular overnight, and made the small company leap from an unknown workshop to the dark horse in the industry.

Shortly after he left University, the owner of the small company did not have much experience, but he was far-sighted. When he made money, he immediately recruited people, bought supplies, expanded his business, and spent most of his money on the company.

At the same time, the young boss also contacted Mr. Tang Li several times, always carrying a bag of valuable gifts to offer to his new idol and only hoping to have even the opportunity to meet up with Tang Li.

Knowing that he was too young to be tied down to any one job, Tang Li decisively refused his boss's request for an formal interview.

But for the past five years, he has been in contact with his boss through his teacher.

Tang Li went to his desk, picked up the cell phone, and saw on the lock screen of the cell phone that he had received more than fifty messages.

After using his fingerprint to unlock the phone, the message clicked into Wechat. All the messages came from a small group called “L. P”.

[Zhou Che: They have already reached 8 million in their offer. Shall we consider the deal?]

[Lin Pinran: I guess that's the highest amount they can give. What if we still hold out and they suddenly change their mind?]

[Zhou Che: It's impossible. Anyway, the Tang family is also the head snake of C city. It has been the king of the city for more than 100 years. It's not like eight million would cause them to lose sleep.]

[Tan Dong: Let's wait to hear what Tang Li has to say. This project was organized by him. He should have his own ideas.] When that was read, everyone else was quiet.
