The Little Brat’s Sweet And Sassy Chapter 1271

Chapter 1171 - 1171 There's No Such Logic in the World

1171 There’s No Such Logic in the World

When Shen Li arrived at the National Art Association, Lin Yaohui was already waiting for her and he led her directly to Yu Pingchuan’s office.

After Mei Yanqing’s surgery, he had rarely come over. Yu Pingchuan was the one who handled most of the matters.

After about twenty minutes, the door was pushed open and Yu Pingchuan walked in.

“Ah Li, did you wait long?”

Shen Li shook her head and said, “No. Has your meeting ended?”

“That’s right,” Yu Pingchuan said with a smile. It should have ended a long time ago, but there were a lot of things to do today, so it was delayed. So, shall we go to Jinse Bay now?”

“Okay,” Shen Li replied and followed him out.

When they arrived at the corridor, they happened to bump into a few members of the National Art Association who immediately greeted Yu Pingchuan and Shen Li politely.

In fact, they were all Shen Li’s elders, but Shen Li was Mei Yanqing’s disciple so most of the people here were ranked behind her in terms of seniority.

While they were chatting, Shen Li looked up and saw a familiar figure walking around the corner.

It was Shi Yang.

Beside him was his assistant, who was saying something to him.

“… I’ve already checked the schedule for the event next Monday and everything is going smoothly. Also, the cake you ordered is ready and will be delivered to your residence in an hour.”

Shi Yang nodded. Then, as if he had suddenly noticed something, he looked up.

Shen Li was standing with Yu Pingchuan.

She was wearing a black hoodie, jeans, and a baseball cap on her head.

At a glance, she looked very cool and sassy.

She was really different from her…

Only when the hat covered her eyebrows and eyes did she show a somewhat pleasing resemblance.

As he thought of this, he suppressed the emotions in his eyes and smiled at Shen Li.

Shen Li’s eyebrows furrowed.

She did not know why, but she felt as if Shi Yang had just given her a scrutinizing look.

However, when she tried to distinguish it carefully, that feeling disappeared again.

When she looked at him again, he was still as gentle and elegant as he was every time she saw him. The look in his eyes behind his glasses was calm and gentle.

Yu Pingchuan and the others also noticed his arrival and exchanged a few pleasantries.

Shi Yang looked at Shen Li.

“Did Shen Li come here today to pick up Elder Yu?”

Shen Li’s expression was indifferent as she spoke.

“Yes.”

Her attitude seemed a little cold.

Shi Yang paused, as if he did not mind. He smiled and said, “Then it must be something urgent. We won’t delay you any further.”

Yu Pingchuan coughed and said, “Master is still waiting at home, so we must hurry.”

“I see.” Shi Yang stepped aside with a smile. “Then, you should not keep Elder Mei waiting.”

When everyone heard him, they immediately agreed.

Without staying any longer, Shen Li and Yu Pingchuan left.

The other people left, one after another. Shi Yang did not look away until the two figures had disappeared around the corner.

The assistant whispered, “This Shen Li is a feisty girl. Among other things, she has such a feisty temper. I can’t believe you like her paintings so much. This girl…”

She was so cold towards Shi Yang that she did not seem to show any respect towards him.

“Why be so bothered over a child? Besides, just because I like her paintings, does that mean she’ll treat me differently?”

Shi Yang smiled, but his voice was a little fainter.

“There’s no such logic in this world.”

Hearing this, the assistant did not dare to comment further and just nodded.

“Yes, sir.”

Shi Yang took a few steps forward before he turned to look back again.

The tall and slender figure had disappeared.

He said, “Forget it. I’ll just pick up the cake myself later.”

The assistant was a little surprised, but he quickly responded.

“Alright, I’ll let them know.”

Shi Yang did not say anything further. Instead, he turned and left.

“Ah Li, do you have a problem with Shi Yang?”

Yu Pingchuan could not help but ask as soon as they got into the car.

Shen Li held the steering wheel and looked straight ahead as she calmly said, “No, I don’t.”

“Then today, you…”

It was not the first time Shen Li had met Shi Yang. She had been polite to him before, but now, she did not even seem to have that much politeness left.

Shen Li replied, “I can’t say I have an opinion. After all, we’re not close. I just don’t like him.”

Yu Pingchuan felt very helpless upon hearing this answer.

“You’re becoming more and more like Master in this aspect.”

Every time Mei Yanqing mentioned Shi Yang, he would always do the same.

There was no reason, it was just annoyance.

Moreover, he could not even be bothered with any superficial pleasantries.

Shen Li was noncommittal on that.

Now, whenever she saw Shi Yang, she could not help but think of Tao Siwen and those fake paintings.

Yu Pingchuan knew that she was stubborn, so he did not try to persuade her otherwise.

“Forget it. If you don’t like him, then so be it.”

Master did not like him anyway.

Yu Pingchuan quickly changed the topic.

“Did you bring over the painting today?”

Shen Li nodded and said, “Yes. I want to ask Master and you to take a look.”

At the mention of this, Yu Pingchuan’s interest was piqued.

“That’s great! You don’t know this, but ever since Ronai called Master, he’s been talking about this every day. You’re even busier than before now, so I’m sure it’s not easy to produce a painting. Master will definitely be happy to see it.”

Shen Li’s lips curved in a smile.

The two of them soon arrived at Jinse Bay where Mei Yanqing was already waiting for them.

Shen Li took the painting and went in.

Mei Yanqing had read as he waited in the study for half an hour. Now, the anger that he had felt towards Ronai had finally subsided and he could not hide the smile on his face as he ate.

“Although Ah Li doesn’t produce many paintings now, each one is better than the last.”

Yu Pingchuan secretly gave Shen Li a thumbs up.

He realized that the matter of coaxing her master still had to be left to her.

He thought about how much injustice he had suffered during this period of time.

Mei Yanqing spoke in a generous manner.

“Oh yes, Ronai has always liked your paintings. You should give him a call later to make him happy too.”

Shen Li was dumbfounded.

Yu Pingchuan was stunned.

In what way was this a way to make someone happy? He was clearly trying to regain his pride, right?

However, Mei Yanqing had clearly made up his mind. Shen Li and Yu Pingchuan looked at each other and tactfully remained silent.

“By the way, are you planning to auction off this painting?” Mei Yanqing asked.

Shen Li shook her head.

She still had lingering fears from the previous auction, so now, she would not be making such a decision so lightly anymore.

Moreover…

She still owed Lu Huaiyu a painting.

Yu Pingchuan smiled and said, “Ah Li produces fewer paintings than before, so it’s good to keep some on hand.”

Shen Li coughed.

She probably would not be able to keep this painting.

She remembered her other purpose for coming here today and looked at Mei Yanqing with a serious expression on her face.

“Master, there’s something I need to tell you. The appearance of my fake painting is related to Tao Siwen.”

Mei Yanqing and Yu Pingchuan were both shocked by this.

“What?”

Shen Li briefly told them about what Lu Huaiyu had found out, and their faces grew darker and darker.

“It’s more or less possible to find out about what he did overseas, but it’s much more difficult to find out this in China. So I’m guessing that someone in the National Art Association must have helped him.”

Mei Yanqing’s brows were tightly knitted.

After a long time, he said in a deep voice, “I see.”

The entire Yunzhou knew that the Ye Family had a new step-child in the house: Ning Li, a low-born and barely literate. However, when she looked at her 17 years old self in the mirror after coming back to life, she grinned. At 17, her step-siblings had yet destroyed her looks and stolen her glory—she still had everything with her. Since she was given an opportunity to start over, she ought to take revenge on everyone who had wronged her before. It would be interesting. After Ning Li was chased out of the Ye Family, she was cherished by the most popular solo singer in the entertainment industry, protected by the top international racer, courted by the heir to a multimillion corporation, and loved by her billionaire grandfather who wanted her to inherit the family business. Even Second Master Lu said to her, “Hold up you little brat, I think you should come home with me.” Rumor had it that Second Master Lu was handsome and beyond any girl’s reach until that one fateful day, when someone saw a drawing of a cool and proud young boy with bangs covering his eyes fall out from Second Master Lu’s book. The news spread like wildfire overnight, and on the next day, Second Master Lu was questioned. Ning Li coincidentally passed by, and upon considering her relationship with him in her past life, she stepped in and shut down the busybodies. Lu Huaiyu stared at the girl before him as he subtly put away the love letter in his hands and said with a smile, “I shall repay you with my body for saving my life.” A long while later, Ning Li saw herself in that particular drawing and she was silenced. She knew it was all a huge mistake.
