Outside the Law

Chapter 2

Luo Yu typically woke up early. He heard rustling noises at the foot of his bed, so immediately opened his eyes and sat up, only to see Su Jiawen who had rolled himself into a fetal position and was sleeping under the bed. He recalled that he had kicked the other off his bed last night, so ignored him.

Luo Yu made his way upstairs again after a morning run and arrived just in time to see Su Jiawen sitting up and rubbing his eyes.　

Upon seeing Luo Yu enter the room, Su Jiawen clung onto the edge of the bed and nervously greeted him. "Mr. Luo, good morning."

Luo Yu saw that he had very quickly gotten into his new role, meaning he didn't need to spend extra time teaching him. He nodded and headed off to shower.　

When Luo Yu walked out, Su Jiawen was still seated, but this time on the bed. He seemed to be waiting for Luo Yu. Luo Yu's tone wasn't very good as he asked, "What?"

"Mr. Luo, what should I wear?" Su Jiawen inquired.

These trivial matters weren't things Luo Yu had to worry about. He pressed the buzzer at the head of his bed; mere seconds later, the housekeeper knocked on the door and entered. Luo Yu pointed at Su Jiawen with his chin. "Prepare some clothes for him."

The housekeeper nodded and left. Luo Yu turned around to look at Su Jiawen, agreeing that it wouldn't be right for him to walk around in only a bathrobe. Thus, he chose a t-shirt he had for golfing and a pair of shorts from his closet and threw them at Su Jiawen. "Wear this today."

Luo Yu himself changed into a suit. Su Jiawen kept mumbling, wanting to talk to him, but Luo Yu simply pretended he couldn't hear. He told Su Jiawen, "Be good and listen to the housekeeper. You're not allowed to leave the house."

Su Jiawen could only nod and say he knew.

Before leaving, the housekeeper waited by the door for Luo Yu. He casually reminded, "The little thing in my room, don't let him go anywhere."

The housekeeper nodded. Luo Yu kindly added, "Also, don't let him get too cold or hungry."

When he reached his company, Luo Yu received a call from his father, asking him what he was busy with recently.

Luo Yu's ident.i.ty was very sensitive. The Luo family had originally been the Yu family, but because of some events in years prior, they had to move from the capitol to Ping City, where Luo Yu took up the mantle of doing business. Later on, his dad took his mom to Europe, making occasional trips back to the capitol to spend time with his old friends.

The purpose of this call was to have Luo Yu visit someone.　

Luo Yu thus made an impromptu visit to the capitol, spending the afternoon playing golf with his dad and an elder he hadn't seen in a while. He still had plans in Ping City for the evening, so flew back before dinner.

When he finally got home, it was already midnight.

The housekeeper was still loyally waiting for him by the door. Luo Yu threw his coat at the housekeeper and went upstairs alone to bathe.　

After showering, he didn't feel sleepy anymore. Thus, Luo Yu headed downstairs, wanting to get some fresh air. He coincidentally managed to catch Su Jiawen sneakily looking for milk to drink in the kitchen.　

Su Jiawen had surrept.i.tiously opened the fridge. Half his head was blocked by the refrigerator door.　

There were several types of fresh milk inside. He was in the middle of choosing which type to drink when a large hand landed on his shoulder. Luo Yu leaned in close to question by his ear, "What are you doing?"
