There aren’t many people who can make you become like this, Sister Li. Only this second brother of yours…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li glared at him, which made him shut his mouth immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Tsk… Wasn’t it the truth? So, why can’t I mention it then?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He begrudgingly followed Ning Li upstairs and asked, “He just left, so I guess that means you had lunch together at Master Yu’s house?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yikes, did Master Yu personally cook? Are you guys feeling alright?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Songze was already giving her a sympathetic look as he asked this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li said lightly, “I cooked.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Songze was shocked. “What?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘If I’d known this, I would’ve come earlier!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li glanced at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t make it seem as if you’ve tried my cooking before.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But I’ve smelled it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Songze felt like crying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they spoke, the two of them arrived at the third floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Songze could only comfort himself that even though he had missed Sister Li’s home cooked meal, at least he still got to see her paintings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At 4:00 pm, Ning Li and Wei Songze left Yu Pingchuan’s house together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Songze looked at her several times and asked expectantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Li, are you really not considering selling this painting?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To her, this painting was different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her resolute attitude, Wei Songze knew that he could not persuade her otherwise. Thus, he could only sigh with regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If that buyer sees this, he would surely like it very much. He’d probably be willing to pay several times the usual price.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li’s painting skills seemed to have improved a lot more than before. More importantly, Ning Li’s overall standard had also improved significantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Yu Pingchuan had seen her painting earlier, he had smiled so much that his eyes disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also said that he was not going to exhibit it at the Yunzhou Painting Association. Instead, he would just bring it to the Capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li said, “Why don’t you worry about how to improve your exam results instead?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of this, Wei Songze was quite proud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Li, you shouldn’t look down on me. I got the highest score in my midterm exams for the past two years!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The midterm exam is the city’s general exam, so the paper’s pretty simple. That doesn’t mean anything.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Excuse me…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Wei Songze remember that the person standing in front of him was the freak who had gotten 741 marks in the midterms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘I shouldn’t have mentioned it…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Siyang was quite bitter after being stood up by Second Master Lu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After using Gu Tinglan’s phone and confirming that Lu Huaiyu had indeed blocked his number, this bitterness reached its peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Siyang was sitting in his car contemplating if he should still go to the appointment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘If I go, it would be too humiliating, but if I don’t go, it’ll be a big loss…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While he was contemplating this dilemma, he received a call from Lu Huaiyu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking about it, he decided to answer the call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A minute later, Gu Siyang’s expression went from being bitter to excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes! I’ll be right there!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he was pulling on his seat belt, he could not help but ask, “Second Master Lu, it’s rare that you’re willing to give up such a big profit! I only waited for a short while, yet you’re being so generous. Thanks!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu answered lazily with a smile, “It’s worth it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Siyang was so touched that he wanted to cry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘It turns out Second Master Lu thinks that my time is so valuable!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Second Master, what did you encounter today that made you so happy?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is it so obvious?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Siyang grinned. “What is it? Maybe I’ll get to experience it too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu smiled faintly and ruthlessly refused. “That might be a bit difficult.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Monday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The results of the physics competition were announced early in the morning. The atmosphere of Second High’s first class was tense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the seniors who had participated in this physics competition were all from the first class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several people gathered to discuss it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is it out yet? When exactly are the results coming out?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t know, but it’s definitely soon. The school will be notified first before making it public. I just saw Mr. Zhou on the phone in the office. I don’t know how it’ll turn out…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I just want second prize in the province. The third prize in the province will do too! At least it’ll give me some extra credits in the college entrance exam. Just a one-mark advantage in the college entrance exam is enough to get ahead of a thousand people!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, only us rookies are nervous. Look at the geniuses Ning Li and Pei Song… They aren’t even flinching!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Xiaochen looked up from the paper and glanced at Ning Li, who was reading an extracurricular book that was two centimeters thick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had inadvertently glanced at it twice before, and saw that it was all in German with some colorful pictures of celestial planets and a large set of data.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li had mentioned that she had already read the Chinese translation before. Now, she was just cross-referencing and confirming some small details, so it was not very difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When He Xiaochen heard that, she could only nod her head woodenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no way she was capable of reading that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Li, you’re really not feeling nervous?” He Xiaochen asked in a small voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li turned the page without raising her head and answered, “The test is already over. What’s there to be nervous about?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Xiaochen looked at her with admiration. ‘Wow, so this is what a big shot is like!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li finally turned to look at her. “What’s wrong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Xiaochen patted her chest and took a deep breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nothing, I was just amazed. I’m used to it now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Li.” Geng Haifan suddenly appeared at the classroom door as he waved at Ning Li with a smile. “Please follow me to the office.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd went silent and immediately looked at Ning Li.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This scene could not be more obvious!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li must have won the prize! Looking at the situation, it was most likely the first prize too!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Pei Song, you too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The smile on Geng Haifan’s face was very bright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone could already tell what was going on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li put her book away, got up, and walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Song was a few steps behind her as he walked out of the classroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many students secretly exchanged glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although they had long guessed that this might be the outcome, it still gave them quite a shock to witness it for themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, it looks like Second High will have two candidates in the national finals this time!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several people sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only five finalists were chosen in the province, and they had gotten two spots this time, which was a pretty amazing ratio.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Geng Haifan’s eyes were full of joy and appreciation as he looked at both stellar students.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he did not walk away immediately. Instead, he looked into the classroom again and swept a glance around, seemingly looking for someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where’s Ye Ci?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Why is Mr. Geng looking for Ye Ci now?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Geng, are you looking for me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Ci had just happened to come back from the washroom and froze when she saw Geng Haifan with Ning Li and Pei Song standing next to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Geng Haifan waved at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ye Ci, you did very well in the exam this time!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1354,"2026-05-30T09:09:42.756Z","2026-06-01T04:30:51.172Z",1,"novelbin.me","8fa975bb6bd9d50f68b67a4bf86f73f0a52604ba2d787e8fba3dd930201a140e","the-little-brat-s-sweet-and-sassy-chapter-186","the-little-brat-s-sweet-and-sassy-chapter-184",1251,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-little-brat-s-sweet-and-sassy-cover.jpg"]
