Chapter 163: You Are Afraid Of Him

Cough!

Ning Li coughed.

Gu Siyang turned to her to ask, “Hey, Ning Li, are you okay?!”

Ning Li flushed as she pointed at his phone.

The call was still connected, why was he talking so loudly?

Gu Siyang failed to understand her. He grinned and said, “Ah? This? It’s Second Master Lu on the phone!”

Ning Li was exasperated. She had heard him clearly the first time he mentioned the man’s name!

On the other end of the call, Lu Huaiyu paused to look at his watch.

9:50 p.m.

The girl’s night self-learning class should have ended by now. However, by the sound of it, she must have gone out instead of going home.

He said, “Is Ning Li there?”

Gu Siyang nodded honestly. “Yeah, she just choked on some water…”

“Are you guys at a club?”

The noisy background was distinct.

“Yeah, at a friend’s place. Ji Shu got signed to LY, right? So there’s a celebration tonight. Ning Li came as well.”

Gu Siyang knew Ning Li called Lu Huaiyu second brother even though they were not related, but their relationship seemed thicker than blood.

Since her brother had asked, he felt compelled to answer honestly.

Lu Huaiyu went silent for a moment before he smiled.

“Oh, are you having fun?”

Gu Siyang felt chills run down his spine, but he maintained his lighthearted tone.

“Okay, I guess. I’m more happy hearing from you.”

He had called Lu Huaiyu earlier, but it had not gotten through.

His uncle had advised him never to try and call Lu Huaiyu twice, so he had given up.

He had not expected Lu Huaiyu to respond this quickly.

Ji Shu and friends went up to Ning Li with paper towels; some of them even wiped the table.

“Sister Lili, are you okay?”

“Sister Lili, how are you feeling?”

“Sister Lili!”

Lu Huaiyu heard all of it.

He bolted up and grabbed his coat.

His coat was hanging over his arm by the time he reached the door.

“Put Ning Li on.”

Gu Siyang nodded and passed the phone to her.

“Ning Li, Second Master Lu asked for you.”

Ning Li wanted to kill Gu Siyang, and then herself.

Her instinct told her that if she answered the phone, the man on the other end would kill her. However, If she did not answer the phone, it would be a fate worse than death.

After a deep breath, she braced herself and put the phone to her ear.

“Hello, second brother.”

Lu Huaiyu sounded flat but succinct. “Location.”

Ning Li knew what the man wanted to do based on that single word. “Second brother, I’m just here for a drink, I’ll be leaving soon! You don’t need to—”
