Knock, knock.
There was a knock on the door.
Ning Li held her phone and went to open the door.
It was Yu Pingchuan.
Ning Li let him into the house.
“Teacher Yu? Why are you here now?”
Yu Pingchuan said, “I think you’ll have to return to the Capital with me in advance.”
Ning Li was slightly stunned.
Yu Pingchuan waved his phone.
“What happened here... Jinse Bay already knows about it.”
Ning Li said, “Are you talking about the matter of your money loss while betting on horses?”
Yu Pingchuan immediately flew into a rage out of embarrassment.
“No way! It’s about your relationship!”
Ning Li, “... Cough, but I already mentioned it before...”
Yu Pingchuan frowned. He was filled with anger at the mention of this matter and said in a muffled voice, “Who told him to be so high-profile about it?”
Ning Li sheepishly rubbed her nose.
Although she was not the one who had done this, it did seem like she had something to do with it...
“I’ll accompany you back to Yunzhou tomorrow. After you’ve tidied up your things, we’ll bring them to the Capital together. When we get there, you’ll stay at Shuiyuan Shijia until school starts.”
It was the same as the last time Ning Li had gone to the Capital.
Ning Li nodded.
“Alright.”
In any case, the matters in Yunzhou had basically been dealt with.
Going to the Capital ahead of time would not delay anything.
Yu Pingchuan said again, “Oh, by the way, there’s no need to let that kid go with us this time.”
He felt annoyed just to look at him now.
Ning Li, “... Oh.”
Yu Pingchuan gave a few more instructions before leaving.
...
That evening, after dinner, Ning Li brought up that matter.
Lu Huaiyu paused in the act of holding his teacup.
“So, you’re not coming with me?”
Ning Li nodded.
“But we’ll be going to the Capital soon, and we’ll still be staying at Shuiyuan Shijia.”
Lu Huaiyu swallowed back the rest of the sentence concerning the “place of residence”.
The corners of his lips curled up.
It was indeed a pity that he could not accompany her.
Fortunately, however, he would be going to the Capital.
It would also be good for her to stay at Shuiyuan Shijia, which was not far from his place anyway.
“Grandpa seems to have been missing you lately,” he said.
Ning Li thought of the 59-second long voice message that Old Master Lu had sent her on the phone, and fell silent for a moment.
“Well... I guess so... I’ll visit him when I get to the Capital.”
Lu Huaiyu suddenly glanced at her.
Ning Li was surprised.
“Second Brother, what’s wrong?”
Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows.
“If Grandpa misses you, you say you’ll visit him. Don’t you have anything to say if I say that I miss you?”
Ning Li, “...”
She glanced at their current location.
They were in her room, and Lu Huaiyu had ordered room service for their dinner.
After dinner, they had sat on the sofa.
Because it was a small suite, there was only a small coffee table and two Italian cream-colored couches.
They sat opposite each other.
Ning Li gestured to the distance between them and reminded him in a serious tone, “Second Brother, I’m only 50 centimeters away from you now.”
They were so close, yet he still wanted to compete with Old Master Lu?
Lu Huaiyu leaned against the back of the sofa with one hand propped up. He tilted his head slightly and lazily said, “Well, it’s still so far away.”
Ning Li, “...”
The corners of Lu Huaiyu’s lips curled up slightly.
“Come sit over here.”
Ning Li said calmly, “Second Brother, that’s a single-seater sofa.”
Lu Huaiyu nodded indifferently.
“Ah, then I’ll sit on your side?”
Ning Li stood up.
“Then, I’ll let you have this seat.”
Just as she was about to leave, Lu Huaiyu grabbed her wrist.
“Ah Li.”
Just as Ning Li was about to break free, he lowered his voice, seeming to laugh and sigh at the same time.
“I didn’t sleep well this afternoon.”
Ning Li’s heart softened, and she turned to look at him.
She was still standing, while he was sitting. From this angle, he needed to raise his head to look at her.
He had been born with naturally handsome and outstanding looks. From this angle, it seemed that his brows and eyes seemed to look more intense, while his jawline was sharp and smooth.
She could see his raised Adam’s apple and his defined collarbone hidden under the collar of his half-open shirt.
Perhaps it was because she rarely looked at him from such a high angle, or perhaps it was because the light in the room was too warm. Or perhaps it was because he really had not slept well that afternoon, at the moment, Lu Huaiyu actually seemed to have lost his usual arrogance... Instead, there was an extremely rare...
It was hard to say what kind of feeling it was.
A faint tiredness rose to the corners of his eyes and brows, yet he looked at her stubbornly.
It was as if he could not bear to let her go, no matter what.
Ning Li felt something stirring in her heart.
In the next moment, she bent down slightly and kissed his lips lightly.
Like a dragonfly skimming over water, his lips parted at the touch.
However, her lips were too soft, and her entire body exuded a sweet fragrance.
Even if it was just a momentary touch, that sweet smell seemed to be a part of her bones and blood.
Lu Huaiyu’s eyes darkened.
He restrained his impulse and still held her hand loosely. He laughed and asked, “That’s it?”
Ning Li looked at him, still feeling a little hesitant.
After a while, she stood closer.
Her calves came close and brushed against his pant legs.
The jeans she was wearing were wrapped around her long, slender legs, and felt warm and soft to the touch.
Lu Huaiyu’s mind drifted away as his fingertips gently brushed against the back of her soft hand, but he refused to do anything else.
Ning Li kissed him again.
This time, one of her hands gently pressed against his shoulder.
She kissed the corner of his lips and kissed the side of his face.
Lu Huaiyu was still looking at her with a smile.
“Miss Ning, you have to be a little sincere when you want to coax someone.”
Ning Li’s ears were tinged slightly red.
She knew that gentleness was not this man’s true nature. More often than not, what he hid inside was not very innocent or easily satiated.
But even though she knew this, she still–
She hesitated, took half a step to the side, and walked around to him.
Lu Huaiyu was still lazily leaning against the back of the chair, holding her hand with one hand and supporting it with the other. He tilted his head and looked at her with half a smile.
He seemed unmoved.
Then, Ning Li gently propped her hand on his knee and bent down to approach him.
Her palm was soft and warm. Almost at the moment that she touched him, Lu Huaiyu’s whole body tensed up.
In the next moment, his breath seemed to become stifled.
Ning Li kissed his lips.
When she felt that his thin lips were slightly cold, she furrowed her brows slightly. Then, she opened her lips slightly and lightly nipped at his lips.
There seemed to be a touch of moist heat that brushed past his lips.
Lu Huaiyu’s Adam’s apple rolled for a moment, before he then raised his head slightly in coordination.
The light and shadow outlined the man’s perfectly smooth jawline. From the Adam’s apple to the collarbone, and then down to the black shirt, where nothing in the slightest could be seen.
This man had always been fastidious about his clothing. This time, he was also fastidious from top to bottom, with his cold and ascetic aura.
Only the chaotic and hot breathing, interspersed with some vigorous and messy movements.
Since she did not have much experience, it was him who had mostly taken the lead in the past.
It was rare for her to take the initiative today, so she revealed some clumsiness and unfamiliarity.
However, for some reason, even though she tried for a while, the man only responded intermittently, as if he was lost in his thoughts.
She gradually became a little annoyed, and finally bit him hard.
His chest shook a little as he chuckled softly before he was willing to release his lips and teeth.
She turned the tables, and without thinking, she probed inside and accidentally touched the tip of his tongue.
It was a little hot, which made her start to retreat.
The tip of Lu Huaiyu’s brows raised slightly. Suddenly, he pressed down on her waist, pulled her into his arms, and began his counterattack.
Now that he had caught this fish in the net, how could he let go?
