[ON HOLD] (1)The Little Brat's Sweet And Sassy

157-159

They did not understand what signing with LY meant. They simply took it as just another one of their son’s frivolous ideas.

To them, the project of Qinghe Bridge was more important than Ji Shu signing to LY.

Ning Li smiled. “Oh, I see… Too bad.”

Chapter 158: It Should Be A Happy Day

Ji Shu was not really concerned.

He was not interested in his family business. It was just one project. Even if his parents missed one, there would be another.

There was no end to earning money.

He would rather spend his time and effort on the things he liked.

“Sister Lili, let’s have a celebration dinner tonight, at Ignite. Will you come?”

Ignite was a bar that Ji Shu owned with several of his friends. He would have gatherings there from time to time.

Ning Li had been in Lincheng before this, so he never really invited her to any gatherings.

Even after she had come to Yunzhou, she was usually busy with her school work. Her aim was to be the best, so Ji Shu tried not to disturb her.

He could not hold back his excitement today, so he tried his luck.

Ning Li looked up to the sky outside the window.

Yunzhou’s night sky in the autumn was dark and quiet with glittering stars garnishing the darkness.

She smiled. “Sure, but no drinks.”

Ji Shu was surprised. He snapped his fingers and said, “Don’t worry, Sister Lili! Those rascals are scared of you now. They will never try to drink with you anymore! Just promise you will show up! Where do you want me to pick you up from later?”

He cleared his throat and continued, “It’s been a while since those rascals have seen you. They miss you.”

Ning Li knew who he was referring to.

“Sure. Just drive your car and we can go there together.”

She looked happy.

“Yeah, it should be a great night today.”

…

There was no competitive Physics class that night, so Ning Li spent the night studying in class like everyone else.

The class was quiet, only the flipping of pages and writing could be heard.

He Xiaochen was listening to an English passage with her earphones as she took notes.

Ning Li was reading the book that she had borrowed from Lu Huaiyu.

She had actually finished it a long time ago but had not had a chance to return it yet.

There were a few passages that she liked, so she had read the book a few more times.

Halfway through the book, she sighed.

She should have borrowed the original version as well.

This book that she was reading was a Chinese version and although the translations were quite accurate, it was still slightly off compared to the original text.

She should be more careful next time.

Sun Huihui had a quick glance at Ning Li.
