Scholar’s Advanced Technological System - Chapter 1265

Chapter 1265 – The Goddess Of The Lake Will Bless You

?No girl would refuse such romance…?

In order to make himself look less perverted, Lu Zhou tried his best not to look at the girls and ladies on the dance floor. He focused on looking for that special someone in the crowd.

He suddenly felt someone pulling his sleeve. He looked in the direction of the force, but he didn?t see anyone.

?Hello, down here.?

A soft voice came from below. Lu Zhou looked down and saw a little girl in a dress, who was about six or seven years old. She looked at him with her large eyes.

She suddenly thought of something. She retracted her hand to cover her mouth and muttered slowly, ?Oops, Teacher Prada told me that ladies have to be more polite.?

Lu Zhou couldn?t help but smile at the little princess. He looked at her and said politely, ?My lovely princess, did you get separated from your parents??

?No.? Princess Lilia stared directly at Lu Zhou and said, ?Lilia is here to dance.?

?Dance??

?Yes… Mr. Scholar.? The little princess curtsied and said, ?May I dance with you??

She obviously forgot his name already.

Lu Zhou held back his smile and said, ?But your parents might be worried about you. It?s best to find them quickly. I can help you ask the security guard here.?

?No, it is okay. Swedish girls all like dancing. I want to choose my own dance partner.?

?But… why me??

?Of course it?s you.? Princess Lilia said, ?Lilia knows you are the main character. Everyone is watching you. I am the most beautiful girl on the dance floor, and I shall choose the most handsome guy as my dance partner.?

I can?t.

This is too adorable.

Lu Zhou finally couldn?t hold back his laughter. He quickly concealed it with a series of dry coughs.

Lilia, who had not experienced society yet, thought he had a cold, so she blinked and said worriedly, ?Mr. Scholar, do you need a doctor??

?No… Lovely Princess, I don?t need a doctor. But I think you probably need to choose a dance partner around your age.?

?But boys my age are all naughty. They mess with my braids just to get my attention.? The little princess pouted and said, ?Guys are so stupid.?

Lu Zhou: ?…?

Lu Zhou was worried about the royal family?s education and began to look for the security guards in the lobby. He heard a familiar voice.

?Sorry, I?m late.?

When Lu Zhou looked in the direction the voice came from, he saw a lady in a black evening dress and makeup walking across the crowd.

Her long black hair was tied on the back of her head, and the back of the black skirt was like a piece of glowing obsidian, with elegance and beauty merged into one. Even Lu Zhou couldn?t help but stare at her for a long time, without even recognizing her for a second.

Chen Yushan felt her cheeks warm up. She looked down and quickly walked over. She reached out her hand and grabbed his arm.

?Come with me. Let?s talk outside the dance floor.?

Before Lu Zhou could speak, the little girl spoke first.

?Hey, he?s my partner. It?s rude to steal someone else?s partner.?

Chen Yushan looked at the dissatisfied little girl. She noticed the little princess, who she saw at the airport before.

She was somewhat bewildered, and she looked at Lu Zhou. Lu Zhou responded to her with a helpless look. He then sighed and leaned down on one of his knees. He looked at the little girl and said, ?Sorry, I have to leave for a while.?

?How long??

?I… don?t know.?

?Come back early, you owe me a dance.?

?When you grow up, I?ll dance with you.?

After finally getting rid of this annoying girl, Lu Zhou followed Chen Yushan off the dance floor and walked to the resting area near the entrance.

After taking two glasses of red wine from the waiter?s tray, he handed one to Chen Yushan.

After taking a sip to moisturize her lips, Chen Yushan felt the slight drowsiness spread from the tip of her tongue. When Chen Yushan looked at the face reflected in the glass of red wine, she had a smile on her face.

?Aren?t you going to dance??

?Only the most beautiful girl is worthy of the most handsome knight.?

Chen Yushan nearly laughed out loud, and she looked at Lu Zhou with a serious expression. She then asked, ?When did you know how to compliment girls??

?Actually, I don?t.? Lu Zhou shrugged his shoulders helplessly. He then looked at the glass of red wine, sighed, and said, ?A six-year-old girl taught me this.?

?Speaking of which, you?re popular with children.?

?And that conclusion is based on a sample size of one??

?And you did it again…?

?Oh, sor??

Before he could speak, his lips were blocked by an index finger.

?Don?t always say sorry,? Chen Yushan said with a happy smile. She then added, ?I like the way you were.?

The way I was?

What is that?

Lu Zhou was thinking seriously when Chen Yushan pulled his sleeve.

?It?s too loud here, should we sit outside??

?Ok, sure.? Lu Zhou glanced at her evening gown and asked, ?But aren?t you going to get cold??

?Stupid.? Chen Yushan rolled her eyes and said, ?I have a coat, how do you think I got here??

?Then… I?ll wait for you here.?

?Should only take five minutes! Don?t ditch me.?

Chen Yushan walked toward the side door of the venue on high heels. Lu Zhou wanted to remind her to slow down and not fall, but the beautiful figure had already disappeared from the crowd.

Lu Bangguo, who was standing next to a buffet table, muttered as he looked around, ?Where?s my son??

He suddenly saw a familiar figure standing at the resting area by the entrance. Lu Zhou was standing there in a suit, and he looked like he was waiting for someone.

Lu Bangguo?s eyes lit up. He was about to go forward and call his son, but Fang Mei spoke first.

?Stupid! Look at your son, he?s waiting for someone.?

Lu Bangguo: ?Isn?t he waiting for us??

?For what reason? We saw him at the hotel? And in the car? If you always stick to your son, how are you going to get a grandson??

?Yes! True!? Lu Bangguo nodded repeatedly and grinned as he said, ?I want a grandson!?

Even though he was prepared for his son to end the family line, he still hoped to see a cute grandson one day.

This was almost every father?s wish.

Especially for a traditional family. Just reaching the legal age would not make one a man. Only when the son had a family, would he become a man.

Fang Mei smirked and let go of Old Lu?s hand.

?Then stay here.

?Don?t join in on other people?s business!?

…

It had stopped snowing outside. The north wind blowing over the pine forest still brought some coldness. However, walking by the lake, Lu Zhou did not feel cold at all for some reason.

Instead, he felt warm?

This was the first time he felt this way.

No, not the first.

This had happened before. It happened before the flight… However, the feeling was weak, so he never cared about it.

After all, those were trivial feelings.

This was how troublesome humans were. A person?s heart rate and breathing were governed by hormones and nerve signals, while emotions were governed by heart rate and breathing.

He was trying to figure out where the restlessness in his heart came from when he suddenly felt a warm hand enter his pocket and grab his hand.

Lu Zhou?s shoulders twitched subconsciously. However, he didn?t retract his hand. Instead, he let his emotions guide him toward irrational thinking.

Perhaps dopamine had the upper hand.

Or maybe it was a mysterious power in the universe…

All in all, he didn?t hate this feeling.

He almost…

Liked it.

She asked, ?What are you thinking about??

?I don?t know, you tell me.?

?I can read it in your eyes.?

Lu Zhou?s throat moved slightly. He was about to say something, but Chen Yushan looked up at the sky and spoke first.

?Look there.? She pointed her index finger toward the sky and said, ?Aurora.?

Lu Zhou looked in the direction her index finger was pointing. His heart trembled.

?…?

The stream of charged particles blown from the sun touched the edge of the earth?s magnetic field, turning the deadly rays into soft colors, spreading a rainbow of light in the night sky.

Their thoughts were taken further than the universe by the beautiful aurora. The two stood by the lake and looked up for a long time.

Snowflakes floated down from the air and lightly touched the tip of Lu Zhou?s nose. Lu Zhou finally said, ?They came from 152 million kilometers away.?

?To bring beauty to the earth??

?I think it doesn?t have a purpose.?

The mist melted the snowflakes on the tip of his nose.

More snowflakes began to fall.

A soft whisper went into his ears.

?Do you remember what you promised me??

Chen Yushan, whose heart was filled with anxiety, quickly said, ?You promised that??

?If I win another prize, forget bringing you to the banquet, you can do whatever you want…? Lu Zhou looked at the lake and said softly, ?I remember what I said.?

Despite it being just an unintentional remark at the time…

Chen Yushan looked down and whispered, ?Then… can I make a wish??

?Tell me.?

?I want a boyfriend.?

The atmosphere went silent.

The silence between the two was like the snow on the trees.

It remained this way for 10 seconds. But the 10 seconds felt like a century.

Her worried expression gradually turned into a trace of loneliness. A forced smile gradually appeared on her face.

?Forget about it, I was just kidding??

?I?m not going to introduce you to someone.?

Lu Zhou turned around and looked into her eyes.

Even though there was no aurora in her eyes…

He finally realized why his heart rate was increasing.

?What about me??
