Chapter 295: That Artist’s Painting

Ning Li did not have many photos in her phone, so she quickly scrolled to Lu Huaiyu’s photo.

She recalled the time when Zhou Meng, Cao Jingxuan, and the other girls had been talking about this particular photo and all those confessions on the wall of the classroom.

Ning Li had not seen the sixteen-year-old Lu Huaiyu.

Although only five or six years had passed since his graduation, Lu Huaiyu’s resume and experience were so plentiful that they gave the impression that a long time had passed.

She could see that his looks and face had not really changed much, but his temperament was really different.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

The caller ID showed that it was Lu Huaiyu.

Ning Li was in deep thought when the phone rang, so when she saw his name, her heart skipped a beat.

Her hand slipped and she clicked on the “End Call” button.

Ning Li helplessly held her forehead. After some thought, she called him back.

Lu Huaiyu quickly picked up. “Lili?”

His voice trailed off a little, obviously asking about what had just happened. “Are you busy?”

Ning Li remembered what she had been thinking about. She had not even had the time to close that photo of him.

Her cheeks felt a little hot.

“No, I accidentally pressed the wrong button.”

For some reason, Ning Li felt that she had been caught doing something wrong even though Lu Huaiyu was not in front of her at the moment.

Lu Huaiyu could hear it in her voice.

He raised his eyebrows slightly but did not probe further.

“Are you used to Shuiyuan Shijia?”

“Mhmm...it’s nice.” Ning Li replied.

Although it felt a bit too big to stay here alone, it was not a problem.

Lu Huaiyu was silent for a moment.

Ning Li felt a little strange. “Second Brother?”

Lu Huaiyu smiled. “That’s good.”

Ning Li felt that there was something off about his tone, but she could not pinpoint it.

“Are you free tomorrow?” Lu Huaiyu changed the subject. “You’ve finished reading the books you borrowed previously, right? There are a few books that are related to those topics at home. If you want, I can send them to you.”

They had actually been sent to Yunzhou, but Lu Huaiyu had brought them back to the Capital.

At that time, Ning Li had been busy with training, so he had never mentioned it.

Ning Li froze, having not expected Lu Huaiyu to be so concerned about this matter.

Lu Huaiyu read out the names of two of the books.

Ning Li blinked.

If she remembered correctly, both of these books had not been released in the country this year because of copyright reasons.

‘Lu Huaiyu actually has them?’

He had clearly gotten them through other channels, yet he mentioned them so casually.

“Lili?”

Lu Huaiyu noticed that she was quiet and called out to her.

Ning Li came back to her senses and said softly, “Thanks, Second Brother.”
