Route of RetreatChapter 10

KEIGHTY: Special thanks to VitaB for the ko-fi donations! (Extra chapter 3/3)


The next morning, when Fu Chenshan and Ling Zhilu got up, He Yu also woke up. 8DxC2W

He was lying on the bed when he heard the footsteps and conversations of the two people. Fu Chenshan’s voice was very low, as if he was afraid of waking him up. Ling Zhilu, on the other hand, always had some anger suppressed in her heart, never giving Fu Chenshan a friendly look.

He Yu turned over and did not get up. The wound on his leg hurt slightly, but it was not severe and did not affect his ability to sleep again.

When she and Fu Chenshan went out, He Yu turned on his cell phone and called Li Tang. He felt a little embarrassed to ask for leave on the second day of work.

Li Tang’s tone was not particularly kind and gentle, but the content of his question was filled with concern, “Why are you hurt?” 5e6T3B

He Yu was lying on his side, holding a mobile phone to his ear in one hand. “I almost got robbed last night and got stabbed in the leg.”

Li Tang was silent for a moment. “Life is the most important thing; no amount of money can buy it.”

He Yu smiled. “Even hard-earned money, Brother Li.”

Li Tang said, “Okay, you rest for a few days and come back when your leg is healed. I don’t want to hire a cripple to deliver takeouts.”

He Yu muttered softly, “Thank you, Brother Li.”

Li Tang said “hmm” and hung up the phone directly.

He Yu turned over and laid down. He pulled up the quilt to cover half of his face, then closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

He slept until noon. When He Yu heard the doorbell, he suddenly remembered something. He put on his pajamas and got up. When he opened the door, he saw that it was a deliveryman. He Yu paid with the money he took from his pocket and closed the door. Ekq3dn

Fu Chenshan ordered a variety of takeouts for him, including two meat dishes, one vegetarian dish, and soup, all of which He Yu liked to eat.

He sat alone in front of the dining table, throwing the lunch box into the trash can after eating. He then turned on the TV and sat on the sofa to watch.

He Yu actually enjoys this kind of life. He had no big ambitions since he was a child. He likes to eat delicious food in his free time and doesn’t like to go out much. Later, he fell in love with Fu Chenshan.

Fu Chenshan actually has a very considerate character. When he was a child, Fu Chenshan’s mother worked for a state-owned enterprise. At that time, the organization’s performance was good. Fu Chenshan’s mother often bought candy and snacks for Fu Chenshan, and Fu Chenshan would secretly bring them out and give them to He Yu to eat later. hXPg9z

When he went to school, Fu Chenshan would ride his bicycle downstairs every day, waiting for He Yu. He Yu would ride if he wanted to, and if he didn’t want to ride, he would sit in the back seat behind Fu Chenshan, patting Fu Chenshan’s waist and shouting, “Hurry up! A little bit faster!”

He Yu always felt that Fu Chenshan was very kind to him. He just didn’t understand why he could be so kind to someone he didn’t like without expecting anything in return.

Perhaps it cannot be said that He Yu calmly accepted too many benefits from Fu Chenshan without considering the rewards. After all, in just one day, he was made to repay all of Fu Chenshan’s kindness at once.


From that day on, Ling Zhilu no longer followed Fu Chenshan home. Fu Chenshan would accompany his girlfriend every night and not come back until ten or eleven o’clock. kyFp80

He Yu ate and slept like a pig. When his leg was almost healed, his overall complexion also became much better.

He Yu felt that he could finally move around as usual, so he went back to Li Tang’s restaurant to continue working.

He arrived early that morning, and Li Tang was at the door helping to unload vegetables from a small truck.

He Yu walked over and helped Li Tang continue, “I’ll do it.” PrULjD

Li Tang lowered his eyes and glanced at his leg. “You’re not limping anymore?”

He Yu smiled and kicked his leg. “It’s fine now.”

Li Tang then threw the things to him and said, “Do your work. The wages for the past few days don’t count. They will only start counting from today.”

He Yu said, “No problem.” sjTnz5

He Yu didn’t come for more than a week—only to find out that Li Tao quit his job because he thought the work was too heavy.

When packing takeout at noon, Li Tang said, “I am still hiring someone new, so I will help you deliver things in the next two days.”

He Yu buried his head in his work and said, “No problem.”

However, Li Tang is not like Li Tao. He himself is not familiar with the job of delivering food. KDMPsZ

He Yu looked at the notes on the pockets and saw that the two largest bags of lunch boxes were to be delivered to Lingyun. As an employee, he had no reason to ask his boss to work more, so he took the initiative to bring Lingyun’s two bags of takeout.

Li Tang didn’t know that He Yu had worked in Lingyun, so he asked him, “Do you know where it is?”

He Yu said, “If I can’t find it, then I’ll just ask.”

“Well,” Li Tang replied, “your manner is one of your good points.” igsMPO

He Yu smiled and said, “Rest assured, Boss Li.”

The two of them walked to Lingyun’s building and broke up together. He Yu walked towards Lingyun’s door alone, carrying the takeouts.

The security guard at the door saw him from a distance and watched him come up.

Before he spoke, He Yu took the initiative to raise the plastic bag in his hand and show him the red words “Shiyouwei” printed on it. XypMDC

The security guard then asked, “They changed the deliveryman?”

He Yu smiled and said, “Yes, I will deliver the food from now on.”

The security guard didn’t ask any more questions.

Walking into the automatic door, a nostalgic, familiar scent hit his face—as if he were still the same He Yu who had just stepped out of the university campus—full of vigor and hope. 0AevRO

At that moment, He Yu was in a trance, but it was only for a short moment. He didn’t forget what he was here for, so he walked towards the elevator with two bags in his hands.

None of the three elevators stopped on the first floor. He Yu could only press the elevator button and stand in front of one of them, waiting.

Everyone was going out to eat at this time, so He Yu was the only one in the entire hall waiting for the elevator.

At this time, the fastest elevator made a “ding” sound, and then the elevator door slowly opened. wWC7HU

He Yu noticed there was someone inside and subconsciously stepped aside to make way for the person coming out.

There were three or four people in the elevator. When the elevator doors slowly opened on both sides, the first person appeared in front of He Yu..

The man was tall, like a male model on a runway. He perfectly matched the high-quality silver-gray suit he wore. He Yu couldn’t help but raise his head slightly to look at his face. Unexpectedly, he was stunned on the spot.

The man was obviously just as stunned. He looked at He Yu’s face and did not move for a long time. af8XGq

At this time, the person behind the man said strangely, “What’s wrong?”

He Yu reacted before him. He raised the two bags of lunch and threw them at the man’s face. Then he turned around and ran away.

The lunch boxes were all made of plastic. So when He Yu threw the boxes at him, they suddenly cracked widely. All the soup and water from the food dripped onto the man’s clean suit.

But the man couldn’t care less about this at this time and took two steps out of the elevator. At the same time, he pointed at He Yu and shouted to the security guard at the door, “Stop him!” lHhNOU

He Yu, who originally planned to rush out the door, had to change his direction temporarily and run towards the corridor on the right side of the hall.

The tall man was the first to chase after him.

The staff at the service desk stood up and stared dumbfoundedly at the sudden chase game in the company lobby.

Fu Chenshan also followed the man out. GmS4tT

He was standing at the end of the elevator and did not see He Yu. It was not until he saw the back of the man being chased that he suddenly froze. “Xiao Yu?”

Regardless of the confusion in his head, Fu Chenshan also chased after him.

He Yu ran to the end of the corridor.

When he had no way to go, he turned into the men’s room on the right side of the corridor. As soon as he entered, he immediately locked the door from the inside and backed away, breathing heavily. lLZDG6

The windows of the toilet are very high, and to prevent outsiders from climbing in, the windows on the first floor have security bars.

He Yu felt helpless, leaning against the sink and wiping his face with his hand.

Soon, he heard a strong knock on the door outside, accompanied by a familiar voice: “He Yu, get out!”

He Yu stared at the dark brown wooden door and made no sound. JqzgBV

The man’s patience quickly ran out. With a loud bang, he kicked the toilet door open from the outside. It hit the wall hard and bounced back.

He Yu watched the tall man walk in with a fierce look on his face. He finally couldn’t help but move his lips slightly, shouting, “Qiao Mudong!”

Qiao Mudong’s expression was extremely dark as he stopped in front of He Yu.

He Yu straightened his body and held the edge of the sink with his backhand. qwi7QK

Qiao Mudong raised a hand to pinch his chin firmly. The next second, he suddenly moved closer and bit He Yu’s lip hard.

He Yu reacted very quickly. Just when Qiao Mudong pressed his lips, he bent his legs and pushed his knee in between Qiao Mudong’s legs. Qiao Mudong was suddenly struck without even having the time to figure it out. Qiao Mudong yelled, “Oh, fuck!” in pain, immediately bending over slightly.

At the same time, he twisted He Yu’s arm with one hand and pressed the back of his head with the other hand. It looked like he was going to hit him with the mirror behind him.

Just when He Yu’s hair was almost touching the mirror, Qiao Mudong retracted his hand. He let go of He Yu and took a few steps back. The part where he was hit by He Yu was still aching. 4VPbhz

Qiao Mudong grinned and said with a hiss, “What was that for? How could you be so ruthless?”

He Yu stared at him. When he saw that his face was filled with hatred and yet he had to endure the pain with a hint of embarrassment on his face, he finally couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

At this time, Fu Chenshan had already caught up to them by the door. He held on to the door frame and looked at the two people inside. He inhaled lightly and called out, “Xiao Yu?”

He Yu didn’t see Fu Chenshan just now, so he was a little surprised. “Chenshan?” kPU3lq

Fu Chenshan looked at the two people inside and was a little unsure about the situation. He hesitated before walking in and asking Qiao Mudong, “Mudong, what’s going on?”

Qiao Mudong was obviously looking at the two people opposite him. “How do you two know each other?”

This sentence is almost the same question that all three people wanted to ask at this moment.
