Chapter 217: He Likes Her

That seemed to be such a long time ago.

Lu Huaiyu saw Ning Li and walked towards her.

Ning Li held her backpack straps tightly and walked forward as well.

“Second Brother!” She shouted.

Lu Huaiyu reached out and carried her bag for her.

Ning Li was planning to go back to the Ye family home after the movie, so she took her backpack along with her.

The backpack really did not match his ascetic and reserved appearance, but he did not seem to mind.

Lu Huaiyu glanced at Ning Li.

“Why are you wearing so little? Aren’t you cold?”

The temperature in December was quite low in Yunzhou.

Second High had three sets of school uniforms, one each for spring and fall, another for summer, and one for winter.

At this time, many students had already changed into their winter uniforms.

Ning Li was still wearing the single-layered coat for spring, a loose white sweater, and a black baseball cap.

It did not look like an early winter outfit.

She shook her head. “I’m fine.”

The Ye family driver would usually send her to and from school, and the classroom was warm, so she did not feel cold.

Lu Huaiyu nodded.

“Let’s go then. The movie starts at 7:40 pm.”

The two of them took a taxi to HG.

…

The car drove towards HG.

On Christmas night, the streets were very lively.

The buildings on both sides of the road were lit up with colorful, Christmas-themed lights.

There were Christmas trees, garlands, lights, and ribbons everywhere.

Ning Li looked out of the car window for a while.

When she was at school, the feeling of Christmas was already quite strong, but it still could not compare to the atmosphere outside.

Lu Huaiyu leaned back on the seat and looked at her. “Is it nice?”

Ning Li nodded. “Yeah, it’s so festive!”

In her past life, she had been in the sanatorium for a long time.

During that time, she was stuck looking at the same ward day after day.

There was nothing different between the days.

The white walls and sheets, and the pungent smell of disinfectant became a nightmare that she could not dispel from her mind.

It had been such a long time since she had seen such a festive season.

The people on the road were laughing and colorful lights reflected off of the glass windows.

‘It’s been such a long time…’

Ning Li looked out the window at the lively scene with her clear, bright eyes that seemed to reflect the radiant light, her whole person quiet and well-behaved.

Lu Huaiyu nodded gently and smiled.

“It’s very nice to look at.”
