The Little Brat’s Sweet And Sassy

Chapter 651 That Little Brat From the Lu family!

“First Affiliated Hospital?”

Fang Qingyun was a little surprised.

The news of Mei Yanqing’s illness had long spread. How long had it been? By right, he should have almost fully recovered. Why did Second Master suddenly want to go over at this time?

The corners of Lu Huaiyu’s lips curled up slightly.

“Yes. Coincidentally, Elder Mei’s youngest disciple is also free today. So, it would be most suitable for us to go over together.”

Fang Qingyun did not quite understand what he had said.

“Elder Mei’s youngest disciple?”

Was that not Yu Pingchuan?

Lu Huaiyu crossed his long legs. His slender and fair fingers tapped lightly on his knees as he spoke in an unhurried tone.

“Well, the person is… right here.”

Right here?

Right here?!

A sudden realization came to Fang Qingyun and his eyes instantly widened.

“A-Ah Li?!”

Ning Li subconsciously sat up straight, her whole body tensed up.

When she had been in the gallery, she had been so busy dealing with the matter of the painting that she had not felt anything. Now that she was in this enclosed space with Lu Huaiyu, she finally perceived the danger.

When Fang Qingyun saw her reaction, what else was there for him not to understand?

Due to his shock, his voice had raised an octave.

“Ah Li, you’re Elder Mei’s disciple?!”

Ning Li was silent.

“… Yes.”

This news had come too suddenly, and it was so shocking that Fang Qingyun was completely dumbfounded.

Everyone knew that Mei Yanqing had only taken in three disciples in his lifetime, and Yu Pingchuan was the youngest. Now… how had Ning Li suddenly made an appearance?!

Mei Yanqing was already 80 years old this year! Even Yu Pingchuan was already 54 years old!

Ning Li actually–

After a long while, Fang Qingyun could not help but mutter involuntarily, “Then with your seniority, wouldn’t you have already leveled at least half of the art world?”

Ning Li, “…”

This was why she had always addressed Yu Pingchuan as Teacher Yu.

Calling him “Senior Brother” was extremely awkward.

It was as awkward as Wang Yan calling her Junior Master Aunt.

Of course, there were probably others that were even more awkward.

For example, today’s Sheng Ruxue.

People with the titles of Senior Sister and Senior Brother were both highly experienced seniors in the art world and would likely have taken in disciples.

Most of these people were middle-aged and had taken in disciples one after another.

By her estimates, Sheng Ruxue was the youngest among them.

However, she was even one year younger than Sheng Ruxue.

However, she was two generations older than Sheng Ruxue in terms of rank.

In the entire sect, she was the only one there. It was really…

Tiring.

Lu Huaiyu tilted his head to look at her, obviously waiting for her to take the initiative to give him an explanation.

Ning Li sighed and sorted out her thoughts before speaking.

“Three years ago, when Master went to Lincheng to take a break, we had encountered each other.”

At that time, she would go to the park every Saturday and Sunday to draw sketches for people. Mei Yanqing had unintentionally seen one of her drawings in someone else’s hands and had specially set out to search for her.

However, when he arrived that day, Ning Li had already packed up and left.

Thus, for the next few days after that, Mei Yanqing went to that spot early in the morning to wait for her.

It was not until the next Saturday that he had finally found her.

That day, he sat by Ning Li’s side and watched her draw the whole day.

In the evening, when Ning Li had decided to pack up and leave, he asked her a question.

“Would you like to learn to draw with me?”

And just like that, Ning Li had become Mei Yanqing’s disciple. After becoming his disciple, she had discovered that she had three other senior sisters and brothers, and the youngest one was more than thirty years older than her. It had been too late for regrets.

Fang Qingyun recalled what had happened before and finally, it dawned on him.

“No wonder Teacher Yu is so close to you!”

How could his junior sister not have a good relationship with him?

Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows.

That’s right.

No wonder Yu Pingchuan took such great care of Ning Li.

No wonder he had been so angry when he had found out that Ning Li and he were together.

No wonder…

He suddenly thought of something and let out a soft “Ah”.

Some time ago, his grandfather mentioned that Elder Mei’s temper had become especially bad these past few months, especially towards him.

At that time, he had even given him a little advice, but now that he thought about it…

Lu Huaiyu’s fingers paused.

Ning Li looked over.

“Second Brother.”

She looked at him and said seriously, “Master’s temper is actually… quite good. It’s just that he’s a little too straightforward when he speaks. When we get to the hospital later, just listen to what he says and don’t take any of it to heart.”

Lu Huaiyu, “…”

The corners of his eyes twitched slightly when he remembered the chopped steamed chicken that Yu Pingchuan had dismembered previously.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xijing University.

Ning Li and Lu Huaiyu got out of the car and walked in together.

Ning Li went straight to the inpatient department. It was obvious that she was very familiar with this place and this was not her first time here.

Lu Huaiyu was deep in thought.

“So, when Elder Mei suddenly went for a physical examination that day…”

Ning Li nodded.

“So, during the New Year, when you bought so many New Year gifts…”

Ning Li nodded again. Lu Huaiyu pressed the tip of his tongue against his upper palate. After a moment of silence, he smiled.

He had long thought that Ning Li and Yu Pingchuan’s relationship was not ordinary. However, he had never expected that they were actually senior and junior.

Ning Li squeezed his hand and whispered, “Second Brother, I didn’t lie to you. You asked me If I was Teacher Yu’s student, but I denied

it.”

Lu Huaiyu stopped in his tracks and let out an angry laugh.

How could this young lady be so self-righteous when she had done something wrong?

“If it wasn’t for the fake painting, when were you going to tell me?” He lowered his head slightly. “I asked you if you wanted to come and see Elder Mei and what did you say? Hmm?”

Ning Li blinked. “I said, when the time is right…”

Lu Huaiyu merely looked at her.

Ning Li gently stroked the palm of his hand with her fingers and softened her voice. “Second Brother…”

Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows slightly.

“Is this your attitude when admitting your mistake?”

Ning Li stared at him with her sparkling peach blossom eyes.

Lu Huaiyu’s Adam’s apple rolled and lowered his head to kiss her.

Almost at the same time, a furious voice came from a short distance away.

“That little brat from the Lu family! What are you doing?!”
