Li Yu approached Jiang Ling’er, embraced her, and gently kissed her forehead.
Li Yu asked, “Do you have anything in the afternoon?”
Jiang Ling’er replied, “After we have lunch, I’ll go to school. Do you have any plans?”
Li Yu said, “I’ll take you to school now, then I’ll go back to the company for a meeting. I’ll pick you up after school.”
After a moment of hesitation, Jiang Ling’er nodded and said, “Okay. Can I ask you a question now?”
Li Yu nodded.
Curious, Jiang Ling’er asked, “Before, when Nuan Nuan and I went, they asked Nuannuan to wait in the lounge. Why didn’t you have to go there?”
Li Yu didn’t conceal anything and said directly, “I’ve known CEO Chen for a long time. We were classmates when studying abroad. He’s a year ahead of me. We have a smooth collaboration between the Li family and the Chen Group.”
After a pause, Li Yu continued, “I informed him yesterday, or else, with Chen Yizhou being so meticulous, how could he let a stranger enter freely?”
Jiang Ling’er immediately understood. She said, “1 see!”
Thinking about Jiang Ling’er’s perfect state during the shoot, Li Yu couldn’t help but say, “When you went to Chen Group before, did you attract attention like today?”
“I’m not that eye-catching,” said Jiang Ling’er. “But I feel like I scored 80 points.”
Li Yu wondered, “Why not a perfect score?”
Smiling, Jiang Ling’er looked at Li Yu and said, “A perfect score? I hope that when I become a bride, it will be a perfect score!”
Li Yu felt a flutter in his heart, lowered his head, and kissed Jiang Ling’er’s cheek. Li Yu said, “You are a perfect score in my life.”
Jiang Ling’er smiled and said, “Sweet talker.”
After having lunch, Li Yu took Jiang Ling’er to school and then returned to the company.
When Jiang Ling’er entered the classroom, she saw Wen Nuan lying lazily on the desk.
Jiang Ling’er walked over and asked, “What’s wrong? Haven’t you had lunch?”
Wen Nuan complained slightly, “I went to find you this morning and saw Li Yu waiting for you. I thought I’d better not go and be a third wheel.”
Jiang Ling’er felt a bit embarrassed and said, “I went to Chen Group with him today, but it would have been fine if you had come along.”
“What’s going on with you two?”
Jiang Ling’er smiled and said, “Remember how they gave various excuses to prevent you from going to the shooting site? This time, Li Yu went with me, but he didn’t have to stay in the lounge like you did, because he has a good relationship with CEO Chen.”
Wen Nuan was shocked. “What the f*ck? Big Six and Li Yu know each other?”
Jiang Ling’er reprimanded her, “Nuannuan, you should call him CEO Chen, not Big Six. Don’t randomly give people nicknames.”
Wen Nuan scratched her head and smiled. “Got it, Ling’er. How are you planning to spend Christmas? I don’t plan to join the school activities. Shall we invite Lin Sheng to sing together in the evening?”
Playing with the pencil in her hand, Jiang Ling’er said, “We can spend the day together. In the evening, I promised to be with Li Yu.”
Wen Nuan rolled her eyes at Jiang Ling’er in disgust. “Really? Have you become obedient to him?”
Jiang Ling’er said, “I made a promise, and I intend to keep it. We can organize something during the day and see if the others have time.”
Wen Nuan pondered for a moment and suggested, “Why not take Li Yu out with you during the day too? That way, you can spend the whole day together. I’m sure he won’t object to that, right?”
Jiang Ling’er considered this, thinking it made sense. However, Li Yu wasn’t someone who played by common rules. So, during the day, she could invite him, but in the evening, it had to be just the two of them. Otherwise, Li Yu would complain. Thinking about Li Yu’s resentful gaze, Jiang Ling’er got a headache.
“What’s wrong? Don’t you think my suggestion is great?” Wen Nuan asked impatiently
“We can play together during the day,” Jiang Ling’er said. “But at night, Nuannuan, I have to keep my promise with him.”
After saying that, Jiang Ling’er shrugged helplessly.
Wen Nuan teasingly said, “What, can only he have you at night?”
“I promised him…” Jiang Ling’er said with a dark expression.
Before Jiang Ling’er could finish, Wen Nuan interrupted her. “Alright, I understand. You don’t need to hide it.”
Jiang Ling’er nodded, adjusted her breathing, and said, “My brother said he would come back after New Year’s Day.”
Wen Nuan was stunned. “Really? Is this confirmed?”
Jiang Ling’er bit her lip and said, “I haven’t seen my brother for many years. This time, he just sent me a message, saying he’ll be back after New Year’s Day. He didn’t specify when, but he promised to spend the New Year with me.”
“Ling’er, is your brother handsome?” Wen Nuan asked curiously..
