The Little Brat's Sweet and Sassy

CHAPTER 191-200

Chapter 191: Very Expensive

Ning Li had already read half of the book that she had borrowed from Lu Huaiyu.

Reading this one was indeed much better than reading the translated version.

When she flipped a page, her eyes suddenly widened.

There was a picture of a nebula on that page.

Since it was an astrophysics book, it was not strange to see such a diagram.

However, what stunned Ning Li were the handwritten numbers below this diagram.

8.17.

It seemed to be a date of some sort.

More importantly, the handwriting seemed to be Lu Huaiyu’s, and it looked like it had been written a long time ago.

Since this was his book, it was perfectly normal for him to make notes in it. However, Lu Huaiyu was the type of person who would rarely leave any marks in a book.

When Ning Li had gone to his large study, she had looked through some of the books. She could see that while some books were more worn, some were still in pristine condition, even though he had probably read most of them.

However, all of those books were still clean without a single marking.

Thus, this number was very eye-catching.

8.17.

Ning Li suddenly recalled that the password of Yunding Fenghua had this number as well.

At first, she had not thought much about it, but now it seemed that this number was very important to him.

‘But… what did it represent?’

Ning Li fell into deep thought.

“Sister Ning Li?”

Ye Ci’s voice rang out and interrupted Ning Li’s thoughts.

Ning Li looked up and closed the book in her hand.

Ye Ci was standing next to Ning Li, who asked in a light voice, “Yes?”

Ye Ci’s eyes quickly swept over the book that Ning Li had pressed under her hand. It was a rather thick book with German words printed on the cover.

It was Ning Li’s extra-curricular reading material and it seemed to be a new book this time.

Ning Li would bring some of these books to read from time to time, and Ye Ci had not paid much attention to them. She figured that Ning Li read them casually to pass the time.

Ye Ci quickly withdrew her gaze and said, “Sister Ning Li, Mom said that she wanted to buy some clothes for you so she asked me to shop with you. When would you be free?”

She was certainly not referring to Ning Li’s daily clothes.

The Ye family had some status in Yunzhou, so from time to time, they needed to be well-dressed to attend formal occasions.

Although Ning Li was an adopted daughter, she was now living with the Ye family and was considered one of them.

Su Yuan had wanted to prepare these things before, but Ning Li was stubborn and disobedient. That had made it difficult for Su Yuan to even talk to her calmly, let alone worry about these things.

When Old Master Cheng had celebrated his 70th birthday, Su Yuan had intended for Ning Li to borrow Ye Ci’s gown first due to time constraints, but Ning Li had refused.
