The laboratory quieted down, the atmosphere now feeling a little more depressing. Shen Zhijin stood up straight. “That’s all for now. Send it to me after you’ve made the necessary changes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Fu Niannian come back to his senses. “Alright, Teacher Shen.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Zhijin walked to the side. As he passed the trash can, he tilted his head slightly and took a look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The torn envelope had been messily thrown inside. The name of the sender could be vaguely seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Haizhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li rushed to the west gate and saw Xue Langlang and Ding Yu at first glance. A middle-aged couple was standing beside them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Langlang called out to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Li!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li walked over and greeted Xue Langlang’s parents one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hello, Uncle and Auntie. I’m sorry I’m late.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first glance, Xue Tao and his wife looked like high-ranking intellectuals with gentle temperaments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they saw Ning Li, both of them smiled with undisguised admiration in their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Langlang shook her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s not too late! You’re following Dean Shen now. Isn’t it normal for you to be busy? So, shall we go now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corners of Ning Li’s lips curled up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Langlang’s parents had rented a car here, which could fit five people. All of them got into the car and headed to the restaurant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They headed to a restaurant where they had booked a private room in advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole group sat down. Xue Langlang ordered a meal and handed the menu over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Li, Ding Yu, what else would you like to eat?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li felt that all these were about the same, so she let Ding Yu order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Tao looked at Ning Li and asked curiously, “Ning Li, I heard that Professor Shen’s research direction this time is–“\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could finish, Xue Langlang shot him a disdainful glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dad, I know that you admire our Dean Shen, but isn’t it inappropriate to ask this now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Tao coughed. “That’s true, that’s true. Today is Langlang’s birthday, we won’t talk about anything else.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he laughed again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Guess what gift your dad has prepared for you this time?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Langlang shook her head, but a look of anticipation appeared on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Tao walked to the side and took a huge box out of the cabinet in the private room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li took a look and saw that it was a Lego model of the Milky Way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wow! Dad, you truly understand me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Langlang was pleasantly surprised. She cherished the Lego box greatly. “I’ve wanted it for a long time!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your dad knew that you liked it. This time, he specially asked someone to bring it back from Hong Kong City,” Xue Langlang’s mother said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Tao laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As long as Langlang likes it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Langlang conveyed her feelings to the two of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Father! Thank you, Mother!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li observed quietly from the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She seemed to be thinking a lot, but it also seemed like she was not thinking about anything at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The waiter quickly began to serve the dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Tao and his wife were both very talkative people so the atmosphere during the meal was very pleasant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was also this kind of family that could nurture Xue Langlang’s lively and optimistic character.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Ning Li was thinking about it, her phone vibrated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took a look and saw that it was a message from Lu Huaiyu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>( Li, how was dinner? ]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew that Ning Li was accompanying Xue Langlang tonight for her birthday celebration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li lowered her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>( Delicious. ]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a pause, she typed another line of words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[ I just miss you a little. ]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner, it was time to cut the cake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Ning Li had accepted a piece of cake from Xue Langlang, her phone vibrated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu was calling her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She put down the cake and picked up the call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Second Brother?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was the sound of wind from the other end of the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu said, “I’m downstairs. Which private room are you in?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li was stunned and subconsciously asked, “You’re here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu’s voice contained a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Didn’t you say that you missed me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Because you missed me, I came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘You just have to wait where you are.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li curled her fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Li?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Langlang suddenly called out to her and winked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since Senior Lu has come to pick you up, I won’t keep you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, she packed two more cakes and handed them over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I promise!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li carried the cake downstairs and indeed saw the familiar tall and straight figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was wearing a trenchcoat today, which made his waist and legs look even longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he saw Ning Li, he walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he stood in front of Ning Li, he tilted his head and swept his gaze over her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he ruffled her hair and said in a low and gentle voice,”Who bullied Ah Li?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li raised her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I received a letter from my father today.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li continued, “He asked me to help Su Yuan. I tore up the letter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu’s eyes were deep as he looked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li seemed to be recalling something as she spoke softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The last time he wrote to me was when Grandma had passed away. And the last time… was about eleven years ago. I can’t remember it clearly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For him, for Grandma, for Su Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But not for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huaiyu opened his trenchcoat, pulled her into his embrace, and kissed her between the eyebrows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You don’t have to remember it if you can’t remember it clearly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The familiar smell of cedar filled the air, and his body exuded a warmth that dispelled the bone-deep chill of late autumn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Li pressed her forehead against his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1114,"2026-05-30T09:09:58.785Z","2026-06-01T04:30:51.172Z",1,"novelbin.me","7fdcdc0bf1bf40c795d6db056c79caafb5881dfeb6a1709e8ccefc8a7d19cae1","the-little-brat-s-sweet-and-sassy-chapter-637","the-little-brat-s-sweet-and-sassy-chapter-635",1251,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-little-brat-s-sweet-and-sassy-cover.jpg"]
