Chapter 321: Lu Huaiyu Kissed Her

Lu Huaiyu went out.

Click.

The door closed.

The room finally quieted down.

Ning Li sat on the edge of the bed, still feeling a little sleepy.

She looked at the slippers on her feet.

Then, she turned her head and looked at the pajamas by her side.

‘Pure Cotton, blue and white, new, female style.’

It was her size.

Her cheeks were burning. In the quiet night, she heard the sound of her heart beating fast. She could feel herself burning red hot from her ears to her neck.

Only her eyes were moist and clear. She was no longer drunk now.

She had warned herself repeatedly not to fall in love with Lu Huaiyu.

However, even after the ten-thousandth time, she still could not avoid it.

How could she not like him?

He was Lu Huaiyu.

She slowly raised her hand and touched her lips.

She felt as if her fingers could still touch his hot and heavy breath on her lips.

Her clear peach blossom eyes shone with a shy twinkle of starlight.

She had kissed Lu Huaiyu.

Then–

Lu Huaiyu had kissed her.

He had said…

‘When you grow up, you can kiss anywhere you want, okay?

Ning Li pulled the quilt over herself and covered half of her small face.

After a long time, in the quiet room in the middle of the night, an extremely soft murmur could be heard.

“…Lu Huaiyu, you have to keep your word…”

…

Lu Huaiyu went to the living room and picked up the bottle of wine.

The label was in Russian, but only had two printed rows listing the ingredients and name. The degree of alcohol content was not shown.

Cheng Xiyue had helped him bring this bottle back when he had gone abroad on a business trip. The production was extremely low, and it was not sold on the market.

He carried the wine and gave Cheng Xiyue a call.

“When you went abroad in February two years ago, you helped me bring back a bottle of wine. What are the storage conditions? Must it be kept in a constant temperature wine cabinet?”

Cheng Xiyue was completely stumped by his question.

The last time he had called Lu Huaiyu due to the rumors circulating within the Capital society, Lu Huaiyu had hung up on him. The two of them had not spoken on the phone again since.

Finally, he was calling him now, but it was to ask about wine!?

He frowned and said somewhat hesitantly, “… Lu Er, you have to step out to resolve this kind of matter. What’s the use of drinking to drown your sorrows?”

Lu Huaiyu completely ignored him and asked instead, “Can I put it in the safe?”

Cheng Xiyue: “…”

He looked at his phone suspiciously.

It was Lu Huaiyu’s phone number, and it was also his voice!

He was silent for a while.

“How much have you drunk? Put it in the safe? Why don’t you put it in the sky?”

Lu Huaiyu chuckled.

“How could I bear to?”

“…”

Cheng Xiyue felt that Lu Huaiyu might really be under the influence of some kind of stimulant.

He massaged his throbbing temples to try and calm himself down, his last little bit of patience starting to disintegrate.

“If you still want to continue drinking it in the future, then put it back in the wine cabinet.”

Lu Huaiyu weighed the wine bottle in his hands.

He was reluctant to put it back in the wine cabinet with the other wines.

However, the desire to retain the taste of this wine had grown even more today.

“Got it. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now.”

As Lu Huaiyu spoke, he moved to hang up the phone.

Cheng Xiyue: ???

“Wait a minute!

He hurriedly shouted, “It’s so late at night. Are you really calling just about a bottle of wine!?”

“What else?”

“Then, that rumor… Do you know what kind of rumors have spread already!? Second Master Lu, you’re currently in the Capital. Are you really not the least bit anxious?”

Lu Huaiyu placed the bottle of wine back into the innermost layer of the wine cabinet and closed the cabinet door. Only then did he speak lazily.

“What’s there to be anxious about?”

Cheng Xiyue’s headache was killing him.

“If your grandfather hears about this matter, won’t he break your legs?”

Lu Huaiyu leaned against the cabinet door and smiled.

“This master is about to marry a wife. If you have time to worry about this, why don’t you work harder and prepare the money for the wedding gift?”

…

Ning Li lay on the bed, unable to sleep.

After hesitating for a while, she got up, opened the door, and walked out.

Lu Huaiyu was not in the guest bedroom.

She turned around and heard the sound of water in the bathroom.

Lu Huaiyu seemed to be taking a bath.

She thought for a moment and went back into the master bedroom.

After about half an hour, she got up again.

The bathroom door was still locked.

Ning Li stood outside and stared at the door. She frowned slightly, feeling a little lost.

Lu Huaiyu was taking an unbelievably long shower…

She went back to the master bedroom.

Perhaps it was because she was tired out after such a long day, but this time, she finally fell asleep in a daze.

…

The next morning, Ning Li opened her eyes and looked at her phone.

It was only seven o’clock.

She sat up and looked around.

All the memories from last night flooded into her mind in an instant.

Her face turned red as she stared at the door.

She needed to go out… What if she ran into Lu Huaiyu!?

Suddenly, familiar footsteps could be heard from outside.

Ning Li immediately lay back down. She pulled the blanket tightly around her, and held her breath, not daring to make a sound.

Lu Huaiyu stood outside the door for a while, but he heard no movement inside. He thought that she was probably still not awake, so he could not bear to knock on the door and quickly left again.

Ning Li hid under the blanket, her face completely covered.

This was Lu Huaiyu’s home. Who else would she run into if not him?

Yesterday, she had nowhere else to vent all her emotions and could only use her drunkenness to behave in such a crazy manner.

Stealing a kiss from him had almost used up two lifetimes of her courage.

Now, she really did not know how to come out and face this mess.

She lay on the bed until nine o’clock before finally changing her clothes slowly and preparing to leave the house.

Lu Huaiyu was reading a document in the living room.

When he heard the noise, he turned his head to look.

The morning sunlight fell on his face, making him look even more elegant.

He looked completely different from the way he had, as he had hugged her last night.

If she had not seen him with her own eyes and heard him with her own ears, even she would not have expected such a pure and chaste person to be tainted by such a fiery desire.

Ning Li’s hand was leaning against the wall, as if she had been nailed to the spot by his gaze.

Her voice was soft and gentle.

“… Second Brother.”
