Chapter 378: A Sleepless Night

Lu Jingli’s eyes were sharp. When he went into gossip mode, his eyes transformed into the all-seeing eagle's eyes. He actually already saw what the contents of the messages and he touched his chin contemplatively.

YS…

As expected it was that fellow!

Tsk! Good, tonight’s mission was accomplished!

Of course, it could have been done better!

Li Jingli started his questioning again, "Xiao Xi Xi, which dishes from the two masters did you think tasted better?"

Ning Xi was going to collapse in frustration; it was her third time facing this question in a short span of time!

Do not ask these trap questions again, please!

This was not a compulsory question, it was more of a question with a dead end…

Ning Xi stared at him harshly, "Shut up! No more questions! It’s late now! You’ve eaten your fill, and you've got your gossip! Go back quickly! If not, I’m going to complain to your brother that you’re still troubling me in the middle of the night!"

Lu Jingli backed off with fear, "How could you do this to me, Xiao Xi Xi? You’ve changed!"

"So are you leaving or not? I’m going to call him right now!" Ning Xi threatened him by holding up her phone.

Lu Jingli’s eyes went teary but for his own personal safety, he ran away quickly!

When she saw that Lu Jingli had finally left, Ning Xi was relieved.

She was still sleepy earlier, but after Lu Jingli’s visit and the few messages she received, it seemed like tonight would be a sleepless night…

But it would not just be Ning Xi having a sleepless night alone…

Platinum Palace.

Lu Jingli opened the door to the study room and panted while leaning on the door frame, "Bro! I’m back! I risked my life to get you some information!"

Lu Tingxiao looked up from a pile of documents, raising his eyebrow at the sight of the traces of dessert on Lu Jingli’s face.

"Uhh…" Lu Jingli quickly cleaned it up with his sleeves, "Ah, it was sister-in-law, she’s just too nice and brought back a box of desserts for me. I didn’t want to eat it actually, but she insisted!"

Lu Tingxiao was speechless.

"Hehehe, bro! I’ve got some really important information here! Do you want to hear about it?" Lu Jingli gave a cheeky expression, "If you invite Elder Cai to make a meal for me, I’ll tell you immediately!"

Lu Tingxiao ignored him and continued to work.

"What! Bro, you really don’t want to know? Really? Then I won't talk!"

One second…

Two seconds…

Three seconds passed…

"Fine! Since we’re brothers, I’ll tell you!" Actually, he just could not contain himself, not even for three seconds…

Lu Jingli quickly said, "Bro, I'll tell you, the person who wrote the embarrassing love letter, prepared the surprise for Xiao Xi Xi and invited Danial over was as expected, the coward alphabet man YS! Oh, right, you sent Xiao Xi Xi a message just now, didn't you? That fellow sent her a message at the same time as well, and the content was the same! Both of your hearts sure resonate together…"

Lu Jingli sighed and mumbled, "That guy is already starting to take action, and I am sure he will continue courting her. This time he invited a chef, the next time he might be reviving a person! Bro, your future of getting yourself a wife doesn’t seem too bright!"

Chapter 379: Miss Was Wronged Tonight

As Lu Jingli said this, he revealed a cunning grin, "However, you have two things that can immediately defeat him! Firstly, you're closer to her. It's not that easy for that guy to return to this country. Secondly, is, of course, our Little Treasure!"

Lu Tingxiao lightly knocked his knuckles on his armrest, "How is Little Treasure's school registration coming along?"

"It is I who is handling it, don't worry about it. He can start school anytime!"

...

Ning Family Bungalow.

"Aiya, Xueluo is home! Were you happy tonight? Tell Mother about it!" Zhuang Lingyu knew about Su Yan's marriage proposal tonight and she purposely waited for her daughter to get home.

When she saw Zhuang Lingyu's face full of expectations, Ning Xueluo forced a smile and replied, "Mother, I'll tell you all about it later. I'm kinda tired, I'll go rest first..."

"Ah? Tired?" When she saw her daughter walk straight to her room and close the door, Zhuang Lingyu looked at her husband in confusion. "What's wrong with Xueluo?"

Ning Yaohua put the newspaper in his hands down and knew something was amiss too. He called over the maid who usually looked after Ning Xueluo.

"Master, are you looking for me?"

"Xiao Ling, go find out what happened tonight. Why did Miss lock herself in as soon as she got back?" Ning Yaohua ordered.

Zhuang Lingyu added, "Exactly. In fact, she doesn't look too good. Didn't Su Yan propose tonight? Logically, shouldn't she be really happy? Unless she's just being shy?"

This was when the maid quickly said, "Master! Madam! That's not it! Miss was wronged tonight!"

Ning Yaohua's expression immediately changed. "What? Wrong? Who would dare wrong my baby girl? Is it that punk Su Yan?"

The maid shook her head, "How could it be Master Su? Master Su loves Miss!"

"Then what happened? Tell us clearly!" Zhuang Lingyu rushed her.

"Master, Madam, tonight's incident is much too complicated, there's no way to explain it briefly. You...you should watch it and understand it yourself!" the maid said as she took out her phone and clicked on a broadcast.

Ning Yaohua and Zhuang Lingyu looked at each other, then quickly took over the phone to watch.

Both of them quickly watched the broadcast and their faces started to look increasingly unhappy by the moment...

The maid angrily said, "Master, Madam, you see for yourself now! Tonight was actually a banquet for Master Su's proposal to Miss, which he had prepared for so long!

"Ning Xi kept ruining things! Luckily, our Miss has such a good temper that she tolerated one incident after another. She couldn't hold it in any longer when she reached home!

"Miss was so sad at that time! It should have been one of her happiest moments, and yet it was ruined! At last, she was laughed at by so many people present and it was even broadcasted onto the Internet! It's now all over the Net, that's how I saw it..."

In reality, the broadcast was actually downloaded from the Internet and edited. The parts where Fang Ya picked fights with Ning Xi over and over again had been edited out...

Just as Xiao Ling was complaining, Ning Xueluo's serious voice was heard from behind, "Xiao Ling! Who gave you permission to spurt nonsense here!?"
