Chapter 247: Isn’t It Interesting?

Ning Li paused in her movements and sat back down again, making a gesture that she was all ears.

She looked at Su Yuan with a faint smile and said in a lazy voice, “Years ago, I didn’t know that you had so many things to say to me.”

Su Yuan almost choked, yet she could not refute this.

After all, Su Yuan had not inquired about Ning Li in the past ten years.

Su Yuan had not even made a single phone call, much less met her face-to-face.

Since she had picked Ning Li up, they rarely spoke to each other. Every time they did, they would get into a disagreement after only a few words.

Ning Li did not listen to Su Yuan and did not even pretend to care.

Thus, Su Yuan could not even speak to Ning Li properly even if she wanted to.

After the previous experiences, Su Yuan finally realized that her previous method was useless in dealing with Ning Li.

Su Yuan was straightforward this time.

“I know you don’t like me, but since you moved in, you’re considered part of the Ye family. In future, you should stay here during the holidays. As for Lincheng…”

She paused.

That was a place she did not want to mention ever again.

If she could, Su Yuan did not want to have any more contact with that city.

“As for Lincheng, you shouldn’t go back there in the future.”

Su Yuan’s words were very straightforward and her tone was much stronger.

This was not a discussion. It was an order.

She had given up trying to communicate with Ning Li gently because that simply did not work.

It was more effective to be direct.

Ning Li looked cold, before suddenly letting out a laugh.

“That’s my home. Why can’t I go back?”

Su Yuan’s eyebrows knitted together.

‘What was so good about that shabby and crowded hutong?’

Now that Ning Li’s grandmother had passed away, Ning Li did not have any other family members or friends over there.

How could that kind of place be called “home”?

What was the Ye family home to Ning Li then?

“Ning Li, why do you always have to go against me?”

Ning Li held her cheek with one hand.

“You think too much. I’m not that bored.”

With the final exams coming, the winter training for the physics competition, and George’s persistence in getting her designs, Ning Li really was quite busy.

Su Yuan choked and looked at Ning Li. Her lips were trembling with anger.

The air seemed to freeze.

Ye Ci’s eyes swept back and forth between the two and hurriedly tried to ease the situation.

“Sister Ning Li, Mom is just saying this for your own good. After all, if you live by yourself in Lincheng, it’s quite unsafe…”

Ning Li suddenly raised her eyes and looked over. Her gaze was sharp and cold.
