I can wait until you are finished with your exams and competition. What do you say?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li realized then that Gu Siyang was a very persistent person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, his suggestion did sound feasible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I heard LY only signs a few racers a year. If you give me the slot now, what will happen if you meet someone better next year?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ll just sign everyone!” Gu Siyang smiled brightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What LY lacks is not money, it’s you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu stared at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chills ran down Gu Siyang’s spine again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He crossed his arms and looked around suspiciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘What was wrong with the temperature in this place? Was the aircon faulty?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li considered his suggestion. She did not say yes but did not reject him either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>LY was making a big concession for her and that was something that rarely happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By next year, it would be possible for her to spare some time to join LY, but…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Siyang looked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Li, do you have any other concerns? I spot some hesitation in your eyes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu had a sip of water. He had a hunch about Ning Li’s concerns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Haizhou’s accident was a hurdle for her. On top of that, there was also that incident…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He closed his eyes and cast the chaotic thoughts from his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li then said, “I’m sorry. I can’t give you an immediate answer. Let’s wait until I finish my exams. If you are still interested, we can talk then.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not the answer Gu Siyang was hoping for but at least there was still some room to turn this around. It was better than a resolute rejection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew when to stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Great. It’s settled then. There’s only one thing that I want you to know: whenever you do make up your mind, please consider LY as your first choice.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not want any other racing clubs to snatch up his Goddess of Victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He put his hands together and said, “Please? For the sake of my uncle?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu scoffed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no idea that Gu Tinglan had already talked to Ning Li about this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Siyang snuck a peek at Lu Huaiyu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘What is he laughing at? Me? Do I look bad for being this persistent?? Wait, it shouldn’t be…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he had come, Gu Tinglan had advised him to not be overly persistent. Thus, he had been holding himself back since then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li nodded. “Okay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her answer pulled Gu Siyang back from his thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He bolted up happily and said, “Thank you! Thank you! I really hope we can work together in the future! This is on me today!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Ning Li could say a word, he went to the counter to pay for everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li was speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu put his glass down on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at his watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s time for class.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li looked at the watch and said, “Yeah.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu got up and walked to the exit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the two of them reached the exit, Gu Siyang finished settling the bill. He turned around and saw them leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eh? Are you going back to class? Oh, then let’s talk another day—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu suddenly said, “I remember something that I left out during our meeting the other day. Since you are here today, let’s walk together.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Siyang was stunned for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘The other day? Unfinished business? I don’t remember… Did I forget? Or is it something related to uncle?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at the pair and said, “Sure.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu and Gu Siyang sent Ning Li back to school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After she disappeared from Lu Huaiyu’s sight, Lu Huaiyu turned to Gu Siyang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Siyang smiled as he said, “Second master, what is it that you want to talk about? Something that you left out the other day?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu grinned. “I bet LY has earned a lot for you over the past few years. Am I right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Siyang laughed and waved his hands. “I’m just fooling around. I’m no match for you, second master.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was not being humble, he was just stating the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While he was still in Jingcheng, he had literally always run onto Lu Huaiyu’s turf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was shocked when he found out that Lu Huaiyu had countless properties in the capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not even go to the same places repeatedly, yet everywhere he went, Lu Huaiyu had property there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu said, “I have a little business proposal for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li reached her classroom 10 minutes before the next class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She reached into her pocket for her phone to put it in the desk but found something else there instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused for a moment before taking it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A piece of milk candy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Is this from Lu Huaiyu? But when? I didn’t even know…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tried to recall when Lu Huaiyu could have slipped the candy in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back at the dessert shop, she had taken her jersey off for a while as she was ordering at the counter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He must have slipped it inside then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, Ning Li, did you bring candy back?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Xiaochen was rather surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you like this flavor?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li looked at the round milky candy. She nodded. “Yes, I like it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A piece of paper was placed on her desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked up and saw Pei Song beside her with a stack of papers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He must have just come back from outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A mock paper from Mr. Zhou.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Song was as succinct as ever, with a cold expression on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The preliminary for the Physics competition was around the corner and things got tense during the competitive Physics class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li nodded. She put away the candy and took the paper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Song had a glimpse of the candy that she had kept away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re welcome.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then distributed the papers to the rest of the students who were in the competitive Physics class.\u003C\u002Fp>",1030,"2026-05-30T09:09:42.756Z","2026-06-01T04:30:51.172Z",1,"novelbin.me","fdd8d2179d46a77b141090117ae49e08cb399a60c75255d5cd1648137dc468af","the-little-brat-s-sweet-and-sassy-chapter-155","the-little-brat-s-sweet-and-sassy-chapter-153",1251,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-little-brat-s-sweet-and-sassy-cover.jpg"]
