To Marry You Chapter 27

s.n.a.t.c.hed, s.n.a.t.c.hed

Huang Yu's birthday was coming up in several days, so Huang Qishan ordered Huang Yu find him after school so he could take him to get a suit fitted for the party.

Huang Yu had just gotten out of cla.s.s when he saw Liang Yan at the entrance of the cla.s.sroom, waiting for him.

"Why are you here?" Huang Yu hugged his books and drawing tools. This cla.s.s had been calligraphy.

"Isn't your birthday two days from now? I bought a present for you since I can't go. Yup!" Liang Yang presented a small, neatly wrapped gift box to Huang Yu.

Huang Yu looked at the gift box and thought of the presents that Liu Shenghao hadn't the opportunity to open earlier.

Huang Yu sighed and accepted the gift.

"You don't like it?"

"No, and isn't this the first time you've celebrated my birthday with me!" Huang Yu was about to open it, but Liang Yan stopped him and told him to open it at home.

"Huang Yu! It's your birthday in a few days! Can we come?" This time, a couple of pretty female students came running over to ask. "We can get you a present!"

At this time, cla.s.s was just getting out, so there were a lot of people still picking up their materials. When they heard someone asking, they all came running over.

"Eh… no can do. We're holding it at home, and because of my mom, my dad, he…"

These people knew that Huang Yu came from a single-parent household. Some people did not say anything after that, but there were still some who asked, "Ai, you're turning eighteen. Isn't your dad throwing you a party?"

"No! My dad doesn't want to bring me out," Huang Yu replied, self-deprecatingly.

"But aren't you his only son?" someone asked in surprise.

"What can I do? My dad doesn't want to bring me out, won't even ask what I want as a present." He flapped his hand, acting pitiful.

That person walked away with his mouth curling into a frown. As he walked away, he and some other people muttered that Huang Yu was no good, that he was looking down on them.

Hearing this, Liang Yan wanted to go over to them and beat them up, but was held back by Huang Yu. At this moment, a female student, Sun Yidan, that Huang Yu usually talked to came over carrying her supplies. She also stuffed a present into Huang Yu's hands.

"Does it look my hands are empty, huh?" said Huang Yu as his things threatened to fall.

Sun Yidan's lips curled back. "You're only carrying one drawing board! I'm carrying the rest!" Sun Yidan shook the things she was carrying.

Huang Yu laughed, embarra.s.sed. "Can I open it now?"

"Let's go over to the side so we don't block the way."

"En."

They moved over to the side so he could put down his things. "Eh? Why are you still here?"

Liang Yan was at a loss for words. "I have nothing to do. I'll wait, and we can leave together."

"My driver will be coming to get me," said Huang Yu while opening his gift.

"Where are you going?"

"My dad wants to get me a custom-fit suit."

"Oh right, house parties are very important."

"No…" Huang Yu carefully snuck a glance at his surroundings. "It's for the birthday banquet at night. The family gathering is at noon."

"But didn't you just say otherwise?" asked Sun Yidan casually.

"They don't hang out with me; I don't like them. I was planning on inviting you."

"No, no, no! My male G.o.d has a concert that day! My little brother has a test! Don't do me like this!” Sun Yidan waved her hands fervently.

"Wow, you really are something! You're my only friend, you know.” Huang Yu deliberately threw the pink wrapping paper angrily over in Sun Yidan's direction. Sun Yidan hurried over to it. "My mom barely let me use the pink, I'm getting gooseb.u.mps now!"

On hearing this, Huang Yu angrily threw the lid of the box at Sun Yidan, who scrambled to catch it. "I worked hard to pick this out."

When he heard this, he started to act more gently. He opened it to see, "Well f.u.c.k! You gave laozi an earring! I am a grown man!"

"Stop shouting! You're still a boy! Not a man! I saw that you had ear piercings, so I gave these to you!" Sun Yidan picked them up and was about to put them in Huang Yu's ears. "I especially picked out this little crown! You shouldn't be allergic to silver."

"I'm not allergic. But why a crown?" I am not a prince."

Sun Yidan fiddled with the earring with her head down. "I hope that you will be as free from worries as a little prince."

Sun Yidan had Huang Yu bend his head and was about to put them in when Liang Yan interrupted, "I'm here, you know."

"You can put them in?" Huang Yu and Sun Yidan asked at the same time, their eyes full of disbelief.

"You two, don't you know that I'm wearing earrings?!" Liang Yan was once struck down once again. The first time, when Huang Yu said this female student was his only friend, Liang Yan felt his heart squeeze and ache.

Huang Yu and Sun Yidan laughed awkwardly. "Ah, so you're here. But be gentle, I haven't worn earrings in so long. I don't know if they closed up."

Now it was Liang Yan's turn to bend down to help Huang Yu. After he put them in, he gently touched the little crown. Huang Yu felt it tickle and shook his head. "Done?"

"Yup!" Liang Yan smiled. "Looks good."

"Do you think it looks strange?" Huang Yu touched them. "I haven't worn earrings before."

"Then why do you have piercing holes?" Sun Yidan grabbed her supplies, ready to leave.

"When I was young I heard someone say that getting your ears pierced was good for your vision, so I begged my dad."

Sun Yidan was perplexed. This brat's thought process was abnormal! Shaking her head, she pa.s.sed the supplies to Huang Yu. "I'm going off first."

"Me too! I'm going, too!" Huang Yu clutched the materials and ran after her. The pitiful Liang Yan caught up to them in one stride. He was just invisible!

"Are you taking your things home?"

"I didn't apply for dorms.”

"You can put them in my dorm."

"No need. I always put them in Sun Yidan's dorm, so I don't have to take them home.”

“Then… could it be that you two like each other?" Liang Yan finally voiced his worries.

Huang Yu and Sun Yidan levelled Liang Yan with the same look. "Don't talk nonsense! I have a man!"

Liang Yan teased, "I didn't know that. I thought you guys were twins! A perfectly synchronized reaction!"

"Sun Yidan, when did you s.n.a.t.c.h a man!" Huang Yu whipped his head around to ask.

"So you can s.n.a.t.c.h one, but I can't?"

"A man?" Liang Yan's heart jumped, but it was a pleasant surprise. "Huang Yu, could it be you…"

"Ah! The car is here, I have to go!" Huang Yu wwaved and ran over.

"Shengsheng! Didn't you say you weren't coming?" Huang Yu asked in surprise.

"I finished my business." Liu Shenghao opened the door for Huang Yu, then drove away.

Sun Yidan saw the car drive away and shook her head, "And PDA again!"

"Hm?" Liang Yan asked uncertainty.

"That's his man!" Sun Yidan shook her had and walked away,, leaving Liang Yan at the school entrance, dazed. When he found out that Huang Yu liked someone, he was more shocked then anyone, but he was actually one step late? No! He wasn't too late! Huang Yu was still young and ignorant. That man looked to be about twenty-four or twenty-five. He still had a chance! Yes! He had a chance!
