Lu Huaiyu saw that when Ning Li looked at the Ye family home's main door, she felt repulsed.
Ning Li tilted her face slightly and looked at him with a deep uneasiness under her eyes as if she was afraid that he would leave her behind.
Lu Huaiyu could even feel her trembling hands as she gripped onto his shirt.
He held her tighter. "Okay, I'll take you home."
After he said that, he looked at Cheng Xiyue.
"Let's go back to Yunding Fenghua."
Cheng Xiyue was a little dumbfounded. When he heard that, he was in a dilemma.
"Second Master Lu, is this... appropriate? Little Ning Li's drunk, so she's not thinking straight. You can't just follow along, right?"
Ning Li was now living with the Ye family. The last time she had secretly left home was late at night in the heavy rain. She had not wanted to go home, so she had stayed at Lu Huaiyu's house then.
Now that she was drunk, it would be better if they sent her back to the Ye house. It would be awkward if she went home with Lu Huaiyu.
Besides, they were now at the Ye family's doorstep!
"Why don't we ask someone inside to come out and pick her up?"
Ning Li was leaning into Lu Huaiyu's arms and seemed to have heard Cheng Xiyue's words.
She lowered her head slightly and did not say a word. Her fingers merely tightened as she clutched Lu Huaiyu's shirt.
Lu Huaiyu's voice grew colder. "Let's go back."
This tone of his was stern and irrefutable.
Cheng Xiyue knew that Lu Huaiyu was stubborn once he made up his mind, so he had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, I'll give them a call later then." Cheng Xiyue said as he glanced at the rearview mirror.
He also felt that Ning Li's current state seemed off.
What had the Ye family done to her that made her so persistent in following Lu Huaiyu home?
Lu Huaiyu gently stroked her face with the palm of his hand and coaxed her in an extremely soft voice, "Don't worry, just go to sleep."
Ning Li nodded gently and finally closed her eyes again.
...
Ye Ci watched from the window, but even after some time, she did not see Ning Li get down from that car.
She could not help but frown.
The car was already parked in front of the gate, so why the delay?
'Could it be that Lu Huaiyu was also in the car?'
That would make sense since he had even held a celebration banquet for Ning Li this evening, so it would be normal to send her home.
At the thought of this, Ye Ci felt a surge of anger.
Ning Li and Lu Huaiyu had no real relationship with each other. That celebration banquet had been so unexpected.
However, the person who had done it was Lu Huaiyu, someone who did not need to care about the opinion of others.
That was also clear after seeing the attitudes of the Ji and the Cheng families.
After today, Ye Ci would become the laughing stock of the city, once news of this spread.
