Prove it through actions (3)
The sneakers had been booked in advance, and one could take them away after you try them on. Although Lin Yuhe didn’t know much about sneakers, he fell in love with the pair of shoes immediately. While he was putting them in the shoe box and wrapped them up, he couldn’t help but look at them a few more times.
No matter how calm they usually were, it was still difficult for boys to resist the charm of sneakers.
Lu Nan watched from the side and asked him, “Do you like it?”
Lin Yuhe smiled so much that his eyebrows and eyes became crooked. “I like it, thank you Gege.”
Lu Nan reached out and gently pinched the back of his neck.
“You’re already calling me Gege, what are you thanking me for”
Lin Yuhe remembered what he said at noon, ‘Gege means husband’, and blushed fiercely.
The two of them wandered around the mall for a long time, and they returned to Fengqi Bay after sunset.
Lin Yuhe had eaten enough at noon, and he was not hungry yet. When he entered the house and Lu Nan asked what he wanted to eat for dinner, he said that anything was fine, and then ran to unwrap his new shoes.
Lu Nan held him back. “Go wash your hands, put on lip balm, and I’ll unwrap your shoes for you.”
Lin Yuhe had a hunch that if he didn’t listen, he wouldn’t be helping to unwrap the shoes, but to help apply lip balm.
So Lin Yuhe nodded immediately. “Okay.”
When he packed up and came back, the tags on the new shoes had already been removed and placed in the living room.
Lin Yuhe put on the shoes and tried again. If he hadn’t been so tired after the exam, he would have gone out to practise skateboarding in the new shoes tonight.
On the mobile phone, Shen Huixi sent a message that they had just finished skateboarding and were about to go back.
Lin Yuhe replied to him by taking a picture of his new shoes and sending them.
There was a string of exclamation points back quickly.
Shen Huixi: [Isn’t this the AJ and OW limited edition shoes? Where did you buy it?]
Lin Yuhe sent a reply. [At Sanguli Mall, Gege bought it]
Unlike Lin Yuhe, Shen Huixi was a veteran sneaker fan, and there were not many styles that could surprise him so much. Lin Yuhe couldn’t help asking. [Are these shoes expensive?]
Shen Huixi laughed as he replied, [Not bad, around AJ’s normal level]
After seeing the ‘Gege bought it’, Shen Huixi changed his mind about telling the truth.
But this pair of shoes, honestly speaking, unbelievable. After all, the price had skyrocketed by 2,000 overnight, and it was hard for shoe dealers to find a pair of limited edition shoes.
After Shen Huixi replied, he looked at the photo carefully and found something was wrong.
[Where are the cable ties on this pair of shoes?]
Lin Yuhe asked, [Ties?]
Shen Huixi then explained, [It’s the plastic strap on the shoe, the same thing as the anti-theft buckle]
Lin Yuhe recalled that Shen Huixi also bought shoes of a similar style to wear, and they did always have anti-theft buckles on them.
As Lu Nan came over, Lin Yuhe raised his head and asked him, “Gege, where are the anti-theft buckles on these shoes?”
Lu Nan said, “I cut them off the shoes when I unwrapped them.”
Just as Lin Yuhe was about to talk, he received a message from Shen Huixi.
Shen Huixi: [Damn, don’t tell me the anti-theft buckle is cut off? ! Haven’t you seen the pair of black and red AJs I’m wearing? That pair has been buckled! Why did you cut it off?]
Lin Yuhe replied to him: [I didn’t, Elder Brother cut it for me. What’s wrong?]
[…]
Shen Huixi sent three strings of ellipses in a row. Across the screen, Lin Yuhe felt his powerlessness.
Shen Huixi then explained, [The anti-theft buckle is the most conspicuous symbol of this shoe, and basically everyone who wears this shoe will keep it]
Seeing that Lin Yuhe was looking at their mobile phones, Lu Nan walked over, and as soon as he got closer, a new message popped up on his mobile phone.
Shen Huixi: [I heard someone say that his mother cut the anti-theft button on the AJ he just bought, and I just thought of it as a joke. I didn’t expect to see it…]
At this point, Shen Huixi didn’t say anything, and comforted Lin Yuhe.
Shen Huixi: [It’s normal for people of Boss Lu’s age to do this, just cut it, it’s no big deal]
Lin Yuhe looked up and saw Lu Nan.
Lu Nan could clearly see the information on the screen.
Lin Yuhe hastily put away his cell phone, trying to cover up the incident.
But Lu Nan, who had already been called ‘Uncle’ by passers-by today, obviously didn’t think so.
He leaned down, put one hand on Lin Yuhe’s cheeks, and trapped them between himself and the sofa. His voice was low and deep, and he repeated it slowly.
“My age?”
Lin Yuhe coughed, and his eyes wandered a little.
But he was still very serious when he spoke. “It is a very good age.”
But Lu Nan didn’t buy it.
He narrowed his eyes. “I think my ability seems to be questioned.”
Lin Yuhe firmly denied. “No, no.”
But Lin Yuhe’s statement was still too late.
It started from when he only looked at the shoes and didn’t look at his Gege when he entered the door, from when he said ‘Gege means husband’ at noon, from the time when the two separated for so long and finally met but still had to wait for the end of the final exam.
The outcome of this moment has already been destined.
Lin Yuhe didn’t even have time to take half a step back when Lu Nan wrapped one hand around his narrow waist and lifted him up.
“Why……?!”
The flat and soft lower abdomen rests on the hard shoulder bones, unable to struggle, and it hurts even if it moves. Compared with the slender body that lacks systematic exercise and the lean body with strong and well-defined muscles, the strength gap is so disconcerting.
Lin Yuhe couldn’t resist, so he was carried to the bedroom.
And the most disturbing thing was the man’s words.
“True knowledge comes from practise.”
Lu Nan’s tone was very calm.
But the calmer he was, the more chills made the back of his neck run cold.
“I think, I still need to prove it to you personally.”
