The Little Brat’s Sweet And Sassy

The other end of the phone suddenly quieted down.

A moment later, George's flirtatious and teasing voice could be heard.

"I seem to have... disturbed you?"

He received two replies at the same time.

"No."

"Yes."

Shen Li went quiet.

She turned her head and glared at Lu Huaiyu.

Lu Huaiyu acted as if he could not see her. Instead, he hugged her even tighter. When he saw that her peach blossom eyes were glistening, his heart felt moved. One hand held the side of her face as he moved in closer to kiss her eyelids.

Shen Li found that Lu Huaiyu was being really clingy today.

She moved the phone away slightly and lowered her voice.

"I'm on the phone."

Lu Huaiyu stepped back a little. However, just as Shen Li breathed a sigh of relief, she felt his kiss on her delicate earlobe again.

She could not help but shrink back, but found that her entire body was in his embrace.

Helpless, she had no choice but to turn her head and quickly kiss him on the lips to appease him.

Lu Huaiyu chuckled before straightening up slightly.

Shen Li put the phone back to her ear.

"George."

George clicked his tongue lightly.

"If it's a really inconvenient time, I can call you later."

Shen Li was silent for a moment.

"George, is it of your opinion that it was too easy to get me to send you my designs previously?"

George coughed lightly.

"It was just a joke."

Although it was a rare opportunity to tease Lu Huaiyu, Ning's designs were more important still.

Shen Li then said, "I'll read the email later. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up then."

George was regretful.

"Even if there's nothing else important, can't we chat a little longer? Ning, even with our relationship, you're still so cold..."

Lu Huaiyu took the phone from Shen Li and said slowly,"If Mr. George wants to talk, I can accompany him."

He seemed to be smiling, but George still felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet.

Inexplicably, he shivered.

"Ahem, I suddenly remembered that I still have some other matters to attend to so let's not talk for now."

After saying that, he quickly hung up.

Lu Huaiyu handed the phone back to Shen Li and said sincerely,"He hung up."

Shen Li silently stuffed the phone back into her pocket.

"We'll have shredded potatoes in vinegar1 tonight."

Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows.

"Huh?"

Shen Li glanced at him.

"There's too much vinegar."

George placed his phone on the corner of the table and grinned as he casually leaned back in his chair.

Lu Huaiyu was really protective of his food-

Suddenly, he thought of the email that he had sent to Shen Li. Then, he picked up the phone and sent another message to Shen Li.

[ Ning, please read the email as soon as possible. If there's a problem, I can communicate with Bai City as soon as possible. ]

After a few minutes, Shen Li replied.

[ Okay. ]

Looking at this message, the corners of George's lips slowly curved into a smile.

..

After replying to George's message, Shen Li started to take some ingredients out of the fridge.

It was only the two of them, so she would prepare a simpler meal.

Lu Huaiyu stood beside her as he assisted her.

After an hour, three dishes and a soup were placed on the dining table.

Lu Huaiyu sat down next to her and served her a bowl of soup. Then, he asked, "How long are you planning to stay in Bai City this time?"

Shen Li said,"About a week or so. We'll decide when we get there."

Bai City Fashion Week would usually be held for about half a month. During that time, the major brands would hold more than a hundred runway shows.

This time, Shen Li would be going as a collaborative designer with G&S.

Considering the situation at school, she did not plan on staying there for too long.

The reason she would be staying there for more than a week was not only to attend the shows, but also to visit Bai City.

It was the place where Shen Zhijin and Gu Tingyin had fallen in love. It was also the place where Shen Zhijin had often lived over the years.

They had been absent from each other's lives for many years. Shen Zhijin had already been to Lincheng, so now, she wanted to go to Bai Cheng.

Lu Huaiyu nodded. He could roughly guess her thoughts.

Shen Li lowered her head and drank the soup.

Lu Huaiyu turned to look at her and suddenly said, "Bai Cheng is quite interesting. Also, if you have the time, you can also go to Leland to take a look."

Shen Li did not raise her head. She slowly swallowed the soup and said,"Why did Second Brother suddenly mention Leland?"

Lu Huaiyu smiled.

"Didn't I tell you before that the environment and scenery in Leland are quite good? Moreover, it's a famous art capital so I thought you would like it. Besides, Leland is not far from Bai City. If you drive, you can go back and forth in a day. It's quite convenient."

Shen Li put down her spoon and thought for a moment.

"We'll see then. If we have time, then we can go there and take a look."

As soon as she finished speaking, George sent another message, urging her to read the email.

She said, "Let me check the information sent by G&S and have a look at the itinerary first, alright?"

Lu Huaiyu replied.

"Sure."

Shen Li entered her email account. The first unread email was from George.

She opened it and found that there were three attachments.

The top one was the schedule of all the fashion shows for all the participating brands in Bai City, as well as Shen Li's itinerary while she was over there.

She skimmed through it quickly.

Other than G&S, many other brands had also extended invitations to her to attend their shows.

On one hand, her previous collections had been very successful and she had already made a name for herself. On the other hand, everyone knew that she had a collaborative relationship with G&S, but she herself did not belong to G&S.

This kind of famous and talented independent designer was very popular in the industry.

Therefore, the choice this time would be up to Shen Li. She could freely decide whether to attend the fashion shows of these brands.

Overall, her time would be relatively free.

Lu Huaiyu sat by her side.

"How is it?"

Shen Li deliberated.

"There are some brands that I'm quite interested in, but I can't completely decide for the time being. I'll think about it before making a decision."

Naturally, Lu Huaiyu would follow her lead.

Shen Li looked at the two compressed files below and noticed that they had not been named. Instead, one was marked as "Up" while the other was "Down.".

She figured like they were related to the G&S press conference.

Shen Li clicked open on the file labeled "Up."

Soon, a series of photos were uploaded onto the phone.

Shen Li opened the first one and found that the entire phone screen was instantly filled.

When she saw the photo clearly, Shen Li's eyebrows jumped.

It was a photo of a half-naked male model.
