Chapter 358: Celebration
A subtle tingling sensation seemed to come from his fingertips and spread throughout her entire body.
Ning Li was stunned, and the tip of her ears burned uncontrollably.
In just a moment, Lu Huaiyu then retracted his hand, and the corners of his lips curled into a casual smile:
“It’s done.”
Ning Li picked up the small cup and took a sip to cover up her fl.u.s.tered feelings.
Actually, this was nothing, but ever since she had secretly kissed Lu Huaiyu that night and had contact with him again, she always felt inexplicably guilty.
The temperature in the room seemed to have risen a lot, and her face also began to heat up.
Lu Huaiyu quietly withdrew his hand as he rubbed his fingertips lightly.
The unbelievably soft touch seemed to linger on his fingers.
It carried the unique sweet fragrance of her body with it. Just a little closer and the fragrance would become richer.
“About your reward for this exam–”
Ning Li was slightly stunned.
She had thought that the reward was this meal.
Was there was going to be another reward?
Knock knock knock.
A series of knocks came from the door.
At the same time, an excited and familiar voice could be heard.
“Second Master Lu? Ning Li? Are you guys there?”
Hearing this voice, Ning Li’s eyes twitched.
Gu Siyang!
Why was he everywhere?
Lu Huaiyu stopped talking and looked over.
Ning Li could only say, “The door isn’t locked, you can just come in.”
As soon as she said that, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Before Ning Li could react, she saw a group of people rush in together.
Bang!
The sound of a loud champagne cork being opened could be heard.
Following that, a group of people cheered enthusiastically.
“Woohoo! The exam is over! Congratulations, congratulations!”
“Great! The exam is finally over! Hahahahahaha!”
“Sister Ning Li! Congratulations, you’re finally free! Hahahahaha! Come, come, come! Let’s applaud Ning Li!”
The originally s.p.a.cious and elegant private room had suddenly become crowded and noisy.
Ning Li, “…”
Gu Siyang was not the only one who had come.
Ning Li’s gaze swept over the people behind him and she fell silent.
Not to mention Ji Shu, why had Ron and the others come as well?
Had Gu Siyang brought LY’s entire racing team here??
Lu Huaiyu looked at the scene in front of him, leaned back lazily in his chair, and smiled.
“Young Master Gu, are you that free today?”
His voice was as calm and unhurried as usual, but for some reason, Gu Siyang felt a chill at the back of his head.
However, when he saw Ning Li beside him, he quickly threw this little bit of uneasiness to the back of his mind and said excitedly, “No way! Didn’t Ning Li finish her exams today? I thought that we should celebrate it properly, don’t you think so?”
Ning Li asked, “How did you know that I finished my exams?”
No matter how much Gu Siyang cared about this matter, he should not have remembered the date of the finals so clearly, right?
Gu Siyang blinked proudly.
“Hehe, I didn’t know at first either! Wasn’t it just such a coincidence that you guys came to my restaurant for a meal? Then, that’s when I realized it!”
Ning Li, “…”
This restaurant was part of the Gu family’s business…
“I should have come much earlier, but I figured that if it was just me alone, it be too lonely, right? It just so happens that Ji Shu and the others are on vacation today, so I went to LY and called them all over!”
Gu Siyang actually had very good intentions.
He was going to be Ning Li’s boss in the future.
As a boss, of course, he had to be considerate of his own people!
The reason Ning Li had been delaying the signing of the LY contract was; first, because she had been busy with the Physics compet.i.tion, and secondly, because she was busy with the college entrance examination.
Now that she had finally pa.s.sed the Physics compet.i.tion, there was only one college entrance examination left before the signing of the contract. How could he not be happy?
Besides, there were only three months left before the college entrance exam. He had to seize the opportunity to cultivate Ning Li’s feelings for LY!
He had to start building his team!
Ning Li had a headache.
She even faintly regretted her promise to Gu Siyang that she would consider signing to LY after the college entrance exam.
Lu Huaiyu and the tips of his brows raised slightly, as he gave a smile that was not really a smile.
“It’s quite lively.”
All those who had raced her on the track the other day should be here.
Ji Shu coughed and lowered his voice.
“Sister Li, we’re not disturbing you guys, are we?”
Ning Li was momentarily speechless. She paused for a moment before saying, “No, we were almost done eating anyway.”
She looked at Gu Siyang.
“However, I won’t be drinking this liquor.”
Were they kidding? With Lu Huaiyu here, how could she touch it?
Only then did Gu Siyang remember the time that Lu Huaiyu had taken Ning Li away when they had been at Ignite Bar.
He glanced at Lu Huaiyu. His desire to live had come too late.
“Eh? It’s fine, it’s fine! This champagne is just for show. You don’t have to drink it!”
Ji Shu righteously said, “Sister Li, I won’t be drinking it either. I have training tomorrow and I remember everything you said.”
Ron and the others looked at him in disbelief. Didn’t you f*cking bring this here!? Now, you’re saying you’re not drinking anymore?
Gu Siyang was also confused.
However, a sense of déjà vu welled up in her heart.
Ah, hadn’t Ji Shu and the others said something similar at that time?
Ning Li nodded.
Ron’s gaze swept past Ji Shu, Ning Li, and Lu Huaiyu in succession. He seemed to have understood something.
He immediately laughed.
“What a coincidence, isn’t it? I have training tomorrow, so I won’t be drinking either!”
Ji Shu and the others, “…”
They were all on the same team, so their training was the same. What a coincidence!
Gu Siyang widened his eyes.
He clearly remembered that they would be doing theoretical and physical training tomorrow, so they would not be touching the car!
How could this affect them?
“That’s quite a pity.
Lu Huaiyu chuckled and said nonchalantly, “After all, so many people have come. All of them are sincere and want to celebrate Ah Li.”
Gu Siyang immediately nodded in agreement.
That’s right, that’s right!
If they left it just like that, wouldn’t they have just come for nothing?
“How about this, let’s go somewhere else to play.”
Lu Huaiyu suggested.
As he spoke, he looked at Ning Li.
“Do you have any place that you want to go to?”
Ning Li shook her head. “No.”
“I do!”
Gu Siyang suddenly thought of something and spoke excitedly.
“There’s a very famous shooting gallery in the Capital. Do you want to go there to play?”
He usually liked racing cars the most, and his second favorite was shooting.
Previously, he had heard people mention that Lu Huaiyu and his shooting skills were top-notch. Now, he was feeling a little tempted.
Moreover, Ji Shu and the others were behind him. Such a large group of men should be more or less interested in this.
Sure enough, the moment he finished speaking, Ron and the others became energized.
Ji Shu tactfully shut his mouth and did not reply.
Lu Huaiyu and Ning Li looked at each other.
“Do you want to go?”
Ning Li paused for a moment and did not immediately express her opinion.
Gu Siyang came over to encourage her.
“Ning Li, Second Master Lu’s shooting skills are very high! I don’t think you have seen it either, right? It’s a good opportunity for us to go take a look together!”
Ning Li’s fingers gently caressed the cup. Her eyelids droop slightly, which obscured her emotions from being seen clearly.
Of course, she knew about this.
She had also seen the way he held a gun before.
However, it was a very blurry image. Only the sound of the gun had been exceptionally clear.
After a moment, she raised her eyes and nodded.
“Okay.”
