The Little Brat’s Sweet And Sassy - Chapter 1193 - 1193 Meeting
1193 Meeting
Shen Li’s eyes narrowed.
Old Master Yu had just passed away, and the Yu family should be in a mess right now. Why was Yu Yu calling her at this time?
In the quiet and empty room, the phone rang again and again with an indescribable stubbornness, as if the other party would continue to call if she did not pick up.
Shen Li finally accepted the call.
!!
Yu Yu’s voice could be heard.
“Shen Li?”
“What’s the matter?” Shen Li’s voice was calm.
Hearing her voice, the anger and hatred that Yu Yu had been suppressing for a long time surged up in an instant!
She clenched her phone tightly and laughed bitterly.
“You still have the nerve to ask that? Isn’t it all because of you that I’m in this state now? You must be very happy now, aren’t you?”
“I don’t care what state you’re in.” Shen Li’s attitude was extremely cold. “If you’re calling just to say these things, then I’ll hang up.”
“You!”
Yu Yu was extremely angry.
If it had not been for Shen Li, how would she have ended up in such a state?
And now, she was actually acting as if this matter had nothing to do with her!
In Yu Yu’s eyes, this was blatant disdain and contempt!
She took a deep breath and said, “I want to see you. I’ll give you half an hour to come to Building 2 of the Capital Villa Courtyard.”
His tone was firm, as if she was giving an order and was not giving her any room for disobedience.
Because it was so ridiculous, Shen Li laughed.
“Yu Yu, do you know what you’re saying?”
“Of course, I know!”
Yu Yu was provoked by her laughter and her voice raised several decibels. She saw the figure sitting next to her out of the corner of her eye and suppressed her anger.
“Shen Li, let me just be direct right now. The old master is dead, and the Yu family is beyond saving, but I don’t want to be dragged into this! I’m calling you to make a deal with you.”
“A deal?” Shen Li retorted, ” I don’t know. What right does Second Miss Yu have to talk about making a ‘deal’ with me? ”
As she spoke, she looked at the hand-drawn portrait in her hand.
It seemed like she should find a suitable time to have a good talk with Lu Huaiyu…
“I have one of your mother’s paintings in my hands.”
Yu Yu’s voice came through the phone.
“If you want it, then come over. If I don’t see you within half an hour, I’ll burn that painting for her. ”
Shen Li’s expression turned completely cold. A layer of frost seemed to have covered her eyes, and the coldness seeped into her bones.
“Yu Yu, I advise you to think before you speak. Otherwise, you won’t even know how you end up dying.”
Her tone was extremely cold, and every word was as sharp as a knife’s edge.
Yu Yu could not help but shiver.
She had never seen Shen Li like this before. It was extremely scary.
However, she was already in a difficult position.
She forced her voice to sound calm.
“I’ve said what I wanted to say. Believe it or not, if you think this deal is not worth it, then just pretend that I never called!”
Then, she hung up the phone without waiting for Shen Li’s reply.
Shen Li fell into deep thought.
Other than the “Mountain Tea” painting from the Xijing Art Academy, the rest of Gu Tingyin’s paintings were all in the Gu family and Shen Zhijin’s keeping.
Logically speaking, there should not be any paintings left outside.
However, this was the excuse that Yu Yu had used.
Of course, Shen Li knew that it was because she wanted her to go there, but–
It was better to be safe than sorry.
Now that Yu Yu had silently come to the Capital from Haicheng and even called her to threaten her, it was obvious that she was cornered.
Shen Li looked at the time.
3:01 pm.
In other words, she had to get to the villa in the Capital city before 3:30.
It was a group of villas in the suburbs of the Capital. If she remembered correctly, the Yu family had indeed bought some property there.
She looked down at the drawing in her hand again.
After a moment, she put it back into the book, got up, and walked out.
When she reached the door, she turned back to take a look.
The painting and the two books had quietly been placed on the coffee table.
Lu Huaiyu had obviously placed them in the drawer under the coffee table on purpose. He had been waiting for her to find out herself.
There were too many things that needed to be explained between them.
She took a deep breath and closed the door.
…
“I’m done.”
Yu Yu put down her phone and looked at Shi Yang.
“But I can’t guarantee that she will come.”
Shi Yang gave a faint smile.
“She will come.”
He had already seen for himself how much she cared about her mother.
Therefore, even if it was just a vague possibility, she would not let it go.
Yu Yu could not help but ask, “Since you’re so sure, why didn’t you call her yourself?”
Shi Yang paused his movements, but his smile did not fade.
“Didn’t I say that I don’t like her? Coincidentally, she doesn’t like me either. If I was the one who made the call, things would be more troublesome.”
Yu Yu frowned.
Trouble?
What kind of trouble?
But when she asked this question, Shi Yang did not bother to explain.
Moreover, things had already progressed to this stage, so there was no point in talking about this anymore.
She looked around again.
She was in the dining room, with a half-eaten cake in front of her.
Shi Yang looked at her for a while.
“Is this your first time here?”
Yu Yu’s eyes flashed with disgust.
“This is Yu Jing’s house. Why would I come here?”
Shi Yang smiled and said, “Didn’t he say that he would find you a new place to recuperate? The environment here is good and it’s quiet. It’s a very suitable place.”
Yu Yu did not say anything.
If it was not for the fact that she had no other choice, she would not have been tricked by Yu Jing!
But it was too late to say anything now.
She suddenly thought of something and looked at Shi Yang.
“I wonder what her reaction will be when she comes and sees you.”
Shi Yang did not respond to her, but changed the topic instead.
“Actually, I’ll need your help later.”
…
Shen Li drove to the villa in the Capital.
As she headed to the suburbs, there were not many cars on the road.
She drove very fast.
Finally, her car stopped in front of a three-story villa.
She got out of the car and rang the doorbell.
The door was quickly opened, and a haggard and pale face appeared behind the door.
Yu Yu.
Shen Li’s eyes narrowed.
It had only been a while since they last met, but Yu Yu seemed to have changed into a completely different person.
She had lost a lot of weight and looked like a bag of bones. She did not look too good. Her eye sockets were sunken and there were dark circles under them.
The elegance and exquisiteness of the past could no longer be seen.
Shen Li made a vague guess.
“Are you taking drugs?”
Yu Yu stared back at her, and it took her a great deal of effort to stop herself from slapping her.
Hearing her speak, Yu Yu burst out laughing as if she had just heard a joke.
“Isn’t this what you wanted? Why are you still pretending?”
Shen Li had no interest in such matters.
“Where’s my mother’s painting?”
Yu Yu turned around and walked further in, while Shen Li stood at the door without moving.
Yu Yu turned around and glanced at her.
“If you want to stay there, that’s fine. But at least let me see your sincerity.”
…
Rongyue Mansion.
Lu Huaiyu entered the password code and pushed the door open.
“Ah Li?”
No one answered.
Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows slightly.
He had already returned as fast as he could, or… Had he not made it in time?
He carried a candy box as he walked in.
He had even said that he would bring her some candy.
Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks, as if he had been nailed to the ground.
On the coffee table in the living room, there was a painting and–
Two books.
