The Little Brat’s Sweet And Sassy

Chapter 1059 Debt Repayment (Second)

Lu Huai and Feng Mei narrowed slightly.

This is... repayment in advance?

"Due to Gambler's early repayment, the system is slightly delayed, please forgive me."

Lu Huai did not speak.

"At this point, all debts owed by Gambler have been repaid, and your debt relationship with Gambler is immediately released."

Shen Li seemed to feel something, turned around and looked over, and saw Lu Huaiyu was on the phone with his cell phone.

Hearing the second sentence, Lu Huai raised his eyebrows lightly.

Then, as he did twice before, he pressed the asterisk to indicate his understanding, and hung up neatly.

As soon as he turned his head, he met Shen Li's gaze.

Shen Li looked at his expression, but the man was as calm and calm as always, noble and lazy, and he couldn't see anything.

Then, her gaze stayed on his phone for a moment, her lips moved slightly, and just as she was about to speak, Madam Gu's kind voice came from behind:

"Ali."

Shen Li paused, turned around, and saw that Old Man Gu, Old Madam Gu and others had also arrived.

She thought for a moment, then suppressed her thoughts and walked over:

"Grandpa, grandma."

Mrs. Gu took her hand, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were extraordinarily gentle:

"Why are you standing at the door? The reception is about to start. Go in with grandma?"

Shen Li nodded meekly: "Okay."

Gu Tingfeng laughed and teased:

"Ali, according to Tinglan, you are very lucky in betting on horses this time around!"

The amount of money Shen Li played was not large in their opinion, but the probability of winning was very high.

Although there were a few wrong guesses in the middle, but overall, the winning rate is still very amazing.

Liang Su next to him blinked:

"Isn't that right? After the horse race was over, many people came to me and asked me for help, how did Ali play."

At tonight's reception, Shen Li was the absolute focus.

Shen Li's heart moved slightly, and the corners of her lips curved into an arc:

"I'm just luckier, and, to be honest, my second brother is much better than me."

This is also true.

The news of Lu Huai and the horse betting winning all matches has also spread in private.

He also came to Hong Kong City to play before, but most of them just played a few games at random. This time, it was purely to accompany Shen Li, and he only made a few bets.

It is precisely because of this that his eyesight and luck are even more staggering.

Even Old Master Gu, who has always been very discerning, rarely gave a "good" evaluation.

It is really rare that this word can come out of Old Master Gu's mouth.

Leaving aside everything else, among the younger generation, Lu Huaiyu is indeed the one he admires the most.

Lu Huaiyu glanced at her, her thin lips slightly hooked.

The little girl is quite good at bribing, and she knows that she can speak good words for him by helping her win some pocket money.

"Huai and smart, Ali is also excellent."

Madam Gu bent her eyes, walked in with Shen Li, and waved at Lu Huaiyu:

"Huai Yu is also here."

Lu Huai and Long Legs stepped away and followed.

Madam Gu smiled and said:

"You were the one who accompanied Ali last year, and it's the same this year."

Hearing this, Old Man Gu glanced over here, as if he wanted to say something:

"Aqing—"

Ali hasn't been with the family for a long time yet——

However, when Mrs. Gu's gentle gaze came over, Mr. Gu's remaining words were stuck in his throat.

In the end, I had to say to Lu Huai:

"Take a good look at Gu Ali."

Lu Huai responded with a smile.

...

In the banquet hall, the huge and luxurious crystal chandeliers are extremely bright, and the clothes are fragrant and the temples are shadowed.

After dealing with a few people who came to say hello, Shen Li turned around and took a glass of orange juice from the waiter's tray, and looked at the man standing beside her.

"Second brother, grandma seems to like you very much."

Actually, not like.

Mrs. Gu's partiality to Lu Huaiyu tonight was obvious to everyone.

Otherwise, Shen Li would definitely be following Old Man Gu or Shen Zhijin, not Lu Huai.

Lu Huai and tilted his head to look at her:

"Isn't that what you meant to say?"

Shen Li paused and nodded honestly:

"I just want to say...the second brother is really smart.

In the entire Gu family, as long as he takes down Old Madam Gu, he will basically win.

In the eyes of outsiders, the person in charge of the Gu family is Mr. Gu.

But in fact, it is Mrs. Gu who really has the final say.

What she thinks and what she says, Mr. Gu always listens.

Just like tonight, Mrs. Gu said to let him accompany her, didn't Mr. Gu just nod?

Shen Li didn't say these words, but her eyes and expressions were clearly expressed.

Lu Huaiyu couldn't help laughing, leaned his head slightly, and said in a low voice:

"Actually, in the end, Mrs. Gu is the one who hurts you."

Shen Li's heart seemed to be hit softly by something.

Of course she understood what Lu Huaiyu meant.

She raised her eyelashes slightly, looking into his eyes.

In the depths of those deep pupils, two small shadows of her were reflected.

Such Lu Huai and, in the end...

She wanted to ask, but when the words came to her mouth, she didn't know where to start.

And there are so many people around—

"Ali."

Liang Su smiled and walked over.

"Mrs. Yin and the others are here too. Would you like to go over and say hello?"

A lot of celebrities from all walks of life came tonight, which is a great opportunity to develop personal connections and relationships.

What Liang Su is willing to introduce is not simple.

Shen Li nodded: "Okay."

She and Lu Huai looked at each other, then followed Liang Su to the other corner of the banquet hall.

Lu Huaiyu watched her leave, remembered the phone call just now, put down the wine glass, and walked towards the terrace.

...

There was no one else on the terrace. Compared with the bright and lively banquet hall behind it, it was a bit quiet.

Still blowing with a bit of hot night wind, Lu Huai raised his hand and loosened his tie.

Then, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Cheng Xiyue.

Just half a minute after it was sent, Cheng Xiyue quickly dialed back a number.

He thought about it, but still connected.

Before he could speak, Cheng Xiyue's shocked voice came from the receiver:

"You said Gambler paid back the money early? Really?"

Lu Huaiyu put one hand in his pocket and held his mobile phone in the other, with a lazy attitude.

In front of it is the hotel's garden fountain, which is flashing brilliant light under the rich night, reflecting the water flow.

He made a faint "hmm" sound.

Cheng Xiyue was puzzled:

"Then why did he do this? Because he won money betting on horses? That's not right. He also won last year, didn't he still pay it back on time?"

Lu Huaiyu seemed to laugh:

"Probably because—lose."

Cheng Xiyue: "..."

I almost forgot about this... This time, it was Gambler who took the initiative to provoke him, but Lu Huai ended up fighting against Zeng Zeng.

Who is not angry about this?

"Then this person is also very interesting." Cheng Xiyue clicked his tongue. "To be honest, I really want to know who this person is. Hey, don't you think so? Anyway, you are the creditor—"

"Not now."

Lu Huaiyu interrupted him,

"With this payment, all his debts will be paid off."

Cheng Xiyue said "Ah", somewhat surprised:

"It's paid off? That...that's pretty good too. You don't have to think about this, right?"

After Shen Li said hello, she returned to the previous place, but did not see Lu Huai and Yu.

He looked around, looked around, and finally saw his figure on the terrace.

She walked over.

With his back to her, he was on the phone.

Even if it's just a back figure, it doesn't hide the arrogance and dignity in his bones.

Just when she was hesitating whether to leave first, she heard his low and laughing voice:

"Feel?"

"Three years is quite a long time. Pay off this last sum, and there will be no debts to urge in the future. It feels like—"

"It's a pity."
