Ning Li automatically stood up straighter when she saw Lu Huaiyu.
Gu Siyang noticed the girl's reaction. He whispered, "Ning Li, are you really that afraid of your second brother?"
He had always assumed that Lu Huaiyu was kind to Ning Li.
Would he really punish Ning Li just because of a rare tiny mistake?
Moreover, Ning Li had only drunk a glass of lemonade. Why was she acting as if she had just killed someone?
Ning Li ignored him as Lu Huaiyu walked towards them from across the road.
He appeared to be in a hurry.
The sky was dark but it did not dampen his noble bearing. His unique presence made his surroundings pale into the background, creating a strong contrast.
Ning Li subconsciously clenched the sleeves of her school uniform.
She had never even felt this nervous whenever she was called out by the whole school.
Step by step, Lu Huaiyu came closer. Each step felt like he was stomping on her heart.
The closer he got, the faster her heartbeat became.
Finally, Lu Huaiyu's imposing figure stood in front of her.
"Second brother." she said.
The others said the same, "Second brother!"
Ning Li had never been so embarrassed.
Lu Huaiyu's eyes scanned over the group.
The breeze carried the scent of alcohol.
Ji Shu and the others had obviously had a drink or two.
That was understandable. It was a big day for Ji Shu, after all.
He nodded as a sign of greeting before turning his gaze to Ning Li.
"Why are you here?"
Ning Li cleared her throat. "I was planning to leave."
Lu Huaiyu looked at her inquisitively.
"This place seems interesting. Are you not going to invite me in?"
Ji Shu wanted to step aside, but he hesitated when Ning Li stood as still as a monolith.
She shook her head. "It's not that interesting. It's boring, so you don't have to go in."
Ji Shu and his friends felt as if they had been slapped in the face.
If Lu Huaiyu had not been in front of them, they would surely have argued with Ning Li.
For some reason, Lu Huaiyu's presence intimidated them.
Even just simply standing there, his presence unnerved even the boys, let alone Ning Li.
They even sensed a hint of danger in his presence, hence the silence.
Lu Huaiyu seemed a little disappointed.
"Oh, really? Then you must have wasted the past 1 hour and 15 minutes after your night self-learning class."
Ning Li realized that the man liked being calculative, but she was the one being judged here as she had been caught red-handed.
She could not do anything else but accept the judgment.
"Second brother, I want to go back."
She kept to her tactic.
