The Little Brat's Sweet And Sassy

Chapter 274: You Can Still Want More

Chapter 274: You Can Still Want More


Lu Huaiyu’s thin lips hooked up slightly. The corners of his eyes were also tainted with a relaxed and lazy smile.


“Is that so?”


“Yeah, she was too shy to admit it when I caught her taking your picture, but it’s normal for a girl to be shy about these kinds of things.”


Sun Qingyi looked back at Lu Huaiyu and pondered.


“Since it’s such a coincidence, do you wanna meet her?”


Before Lu Huaiyu could answer, Sun Qingyi quickly shook his head.


“Ah, forget it! She’s attending the winter camp now, so she should concentrate on preparing for the national finals. You’d better not disturb her.”


Sun Qingyi thought that it was because Lu Huaiyu’s photo was too attractive and that Ning Li was just an ignorant girl that admired his looks, similar to chasing idols.


If Ning Li saw Lu Huaiyu in person, she might really fall head over heels for Lu Huaiyu, which would then be troublesome.


As Lu Huaiyu’s high school cla.s.smate, Sun Qingyi was all too aware of the charm of that face.


Lu Huaiyu thought for a moment and nodded.


“Mm… Okay.”


He agreed so smoothly that Sun Qingyi felt something was wrong and looked him up and down several times.


“Lu Huaiyu, have you become so good-tempered after going to Yunzhou?”


When did this Young Master become so good-natured?


Lu Huaiyu looked at the slender figure not far away and lingered for a moment. He let out a low chuckle and said, “Aren’t you the one who said that the girl is shy?”


He was usually cold and n.o.ble. Currently, his eyebrows were relaxed and his lips were hooked up. It felt like the moon reflecting on a lake that rippled in the gentle night breeze.


Sun Qingyi helplessly touched the back of his neck.


Even as a man, he had to admit that Lu Huaiyu looked amazing.


It was too easy for Lu Huaiyu to compel anyone.


‘I can’t let the girls see this man…’ Sun Qingyi thought.


“Alright, you can go first. I’ll pick up my students.”


Sun Qingyi said as he drove towards Ning Li and Ye Ci.


Fang Qingyun also looked over.


‘Hmm… The girl with the black backpack looks kinda familiar. Is she the one who was standing with the Second Young Master earlier?”


However, they had been a bit far earlier, so Fang Qingyun was not sure.


“Uncle Fang, let’s go,” Lu Huaiyu said.


Fang Qingyun recovered himself and stepped on the gas pedal.


The car drove away from Xijing University First Hospital. From the rearview mirror, he could see that slender figure getting into Sun Qingyi’s car and disappearing.


Fang Qingyun recalled what Sun Qingyi had said and gradually came back to his senses.


‘Wait! The winter camp?! National Physics Compet.i.tion? Does that mean that girl is still in high school?! Right… Previously the Old Master had said that the Second Young Master had been staying in Yunzhou to accompany someone to study…’


At that time, Fang Qingyun had not taken it seriously.


Now that he thought about it, it was very likely…


“Second Young Master, is that girl…”


‘Your crush?!’


Fang Qingyun did not finish the rest of his sentence, but the meaning was very obvious.


Lu Huaiyu said, “Don’t tell Grandpa first.”


Fang Qingyun was shocked.


‘It’s no wonder that the Second Young Master refused to tell us about her before… She’s still a high school girl?!’


Fang Qingyun looked at Lu Huaiyu from the rearview mirror.


Lu Huaiyu was leaning back in his seat and had lowered his head as he looked at his phone.


The corners of his lips were curved up in a faintly visible arc.


The waves in Fang Qingyun’s heart gradually subsided and were replaced by relief and joy.


‘Previously, Dr. Gu had said that the Second Young Master’s condition had improved a lot in recent months… Is it because of this? That’s good then…’


Fang Qingyun said, “Yes, of course, Second Young Master. Old Master has been worried that you’re unrequitedly in love with someone else!”


‘At least the young lady has feelings for the Second Young Master!’


Lu Huaiyu recalled something and laughed.


“Yeah. I told her before that she can’t date while still in school.”


Lu Huaiyu thought, ‘That admonition was not so much to educate the girl, but to remind myself…’


“Yes, yes… It’s important to focus on studies…”


Fang Qingyun smiled.


He had watched Lu Huaiyu grow up and knew that he had always been very responsible, so Fang Qingyun was very relieved.


‘Anyway, there are only four months until the college entrance exam, so it’ll go by quickly. If the girl can partic.i.p.ate in the winter camp for the physics compet.i.tion, she must be very outstanding! Second Young Master always had a good eye.’


Lu Huaiyu laughed lightly and nodded his head. “Mm.”



Ning Li came to the pa.s.senger side and buckled her seatbelt. She raised her eyes and saw a car in front of her driving away.


The license plate number was familiar.


That was the Lu family’s car.


Lu Huaiyu should be inside.


Sun Qingyi caught a glimpse of Ning Li’s gaze and was secretly glad that he asked Lu Huaiyu to leave first.


Ning Li thought about it and took out her phone to send a message to Lu Huaiyu.


[Second Brother, sorry for the trouble today. Thank you.]


When she had been at the hospital, she had not been in a good state of mind.


She had called Lu Huaiyu and held his hand as they sat in the corridor.


He had even jokingly called her baby.


Ning Li had been so nervous and embarra.s.sed that she had not known how to respond, So much so that she had not even had the time to thank him when she accompanied him downstairs.


She was in a mess tonight.


After sending the message, she turned off the phone screen and leaned back comfortably in the seat as she looked out the window.


The warm air in the car blew on her face and made her feel a little hot.


Her eyes were unfocused as she thought about a lot of things.


After a while, her phone vibrated.


She took it out and looked at it.


[It’s no trouble. Kids who are scared of the hospital should’ve gotten more when they’re sick.]


Ning Li stared at that message for a long time until her eyes were slightly sore, before closing.


Lu Huaiyu was smart, so he could easily guess this without asking anything.


She thought she had hidden it very well, but she could not, especially when he was around.


‘Gotten more…’


Ning Li took a light breath and put the phone in her pocket.


Lu Huaiyu waited for a while but did not receive a reply from Ning Li.


He tapped on the phone screen twice.


‘Does this girl know that besides wanting to hear my voice, she could want more than that?’



When they returned to Capital First High, it was already close to 1:00 am.


The door of the room was not locked, so the two girls walked in.


Cao Jingxuan seemed to be awake. When she heard the movement, she poked her head out of bed and asked in a small voice, “Ye Ci, Ning Li, you’re back?”


Ye Ci whispered, “Yeah, why are you still awake?”


“I was a little worried about you guys. By the way, how are you feeling?”


“I’m fine. It’s just gastroenteritis, so I just got an IV drip and some medication.”


“That’s good. Then you guys should get some rest too.”


“Okay.”


Cao Jingxuan looked at Ning Li and wanted to say something, but in the end, she did not speak and laid back down again.



The night pa.s.sed quickly.


They had cla.s.s the next day.


In the afternoon, the results of the previous night’s exam were revealed.


Li Guangyuan came in with the papers.


Cao Jingxuan turned back to Ye Ci.


“Ye Ci, you left halfway through yesterday’s exam… How is that going to be counted?”
