There was a moment of silence in the box.
For a moment, Gu Tinglan laughed.
"Then these two are quite interesting."
The championship competition in this round is more intense than expected.
Accompanied by the endless cheers from above the stands, No. 5 and No. 6 were in an intense battle throughout the whole process, and it was almost impossible to tell them apart.
Yu Pingchuan stood on the corridor, holding on to the railing tightly with one hand, his heart was so nervous that he was about to jump out.
Finally, at the last moment, No. 5 overtook again and jumped over the finish line!
Screams and whistles resounded throughout Watada Racecourse.
Yu Pingchuan let out a long sigh of relief.
"so far so good!"
He touched his forehead and realized that he was sweating profusely.
He looked back at Ning Li fortunately and joyfully.
"No. 5 is really competitive! If it loses this round, it will really lose everything in this trip to Hong Kong City."
Ning Li also exhaled lightly, then tapped her finger on the phone, then raised her eyes and laughed.
"Isn't it?"
Yu Pingchuan said, feeling a little regretful.
"Ali, you really should bet more."
Ning Li's eyelids drooped slightly, and after a while, she bent her eyes.
"You have to let me save some living expenses, I'm really going to lose it all, and I owe a lot of debt."
She rubbed her temples.
"That taste is probably not very good."
Hong Kong City Airport.
It was already five o'clock in the evening when Lu Huai got off the plane.
The summer in Hong Kong City is hot and humid, and even the wind is a bit dry.
He looked down at his phone.
On the third day of the Jockey Club, in the first round, No. 5 won alone.
He raised his eyebrows and planned to put the phone away.
Almost at the same time, a call came from an unremarked number.
He pressed answer.
A respectful and polite male voice came from the receiver.
"Hi, Gambler transferred 15 million US dollars to your account three minutes ago, and the second installment has been paid off, please check."
Lu Huaiyu didn't speak, just raised his eyebrows slightly, and pressed the asterisk to express his understanding.
The other party just hung up the phone.
Lu Huai and the mobile phone with the screen.
After the Marseille, the Gu family held a small celebration reception at the Bansen Hotel.
However, this reception is not very formal, and most of them are young men and women participating, and the overall atmosphere is more lively and lively.
This is also a social occasion that the younger generation prefers.
The crowd gathered together in small groups to talk.
One of the young men looked around.
"Miss Ning Li, didn't you come today?"
Hearing this, several people next to him exchanged glances.
"Ning Li? Which one?"
"Who else could it be? Mr. Gu personally donated the horse, and Mrs. Gu came forward to protect each other. If there is such a treatment, isn't that the only one?"
"Ah, you mean her? I didn't see it. But she wasn't on the invitation list for this reception, right?"
"Then what's the point? It's not just a matter of the Gu family's words? Didn't Mrs. Gu treat her differently? Just relying on the Gu family is enough for her to ascend."
"It's strange to say, I haven't heard of Miss Ning Li's name before, so why does she have such a deep background? Even Young Master Zhong has run into trouble with her."
"Where is it?" Someone sneered and lowered his voice, "It is said that he came from an ordinary 18th-tier county town, and it was only because he was somewhat similar to Miss Gu Si that he was favored by Mrs. Gu."
When Miss Gu Si was mentioned, the surroundings were quiet for a moment.
After a while, someone murmured:
"No wonder. Then she is really lucky, just relying on that face, just..."
It's fine if it's anything else, but that's the reason.
It really doesn't sound good to say it.
Someone laughed:
"Not to mention, that girl is really beautiful. Besides, the Gu family is willing to pamper you so much, what can others say? In my opinion, this Miss Ning Li is really a smart person. If you can get along with someone early It’s a good relationship, but it’s not bad.”
The few people who said this were a little ready to move.
After all, the Gu family is really difficult to get along with. No matter what Ning Li is doing, it is her ability to please Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu.
A young man put down his wine glass and said with a smile:
"Just now, she seems to have gone upstairs, why don't I ask her to come down and play with me?"
When Lu Huaihe arrived at Bansen Hotel, it was already dark.
The man's tall and clear figure can still easily grab people's attention in the night.
Yan Fei was rushing to the hotel with a few people, when suddenly she stopped, staring in a certain direction in a daze.
Zuo Ling asked:
"Feifei, what are you looking at?"
Yan Fei came back to her senses and smiled:
"No, I probably misread it."
The auction will be held tomorrow night, so Lu Huai shouldn't have come today.
She shook her head.
"let's go."
Lu Huaiyu came out of the elevator, looked left and right, and turned right according to the sign.
However, as soon as he reached the corner, he heard an earnest young man's voice.
"Miss Ning, we are all sincerely inviting you, are you really not coming down to play?"
Lu Huaihe paused, narrowing his eyes dangerously.
The girl's cold voice came:
"Sorry, I'm busy, so I can't go."
Anyone can hear the rejection in the words.
The man seemed a little reluctant, but he was too embarrassed to stalk him, so he smiled and said:
"Well, Miss Ning is busy first. This is my business card. If you want to play together when you are free, just give me a call."
Then, the footsteps gradually moved away, as if someone had left.
After that, there was the sound of the door closing.
Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows, walked forward, stood still in front of a door, and raised his hand to knock on the door.
tuk tuk.
After a while, the door was opened, and a slightly impatient voice came:
"I said I'm busy—second brother?"
Ning Li opened her eyes slightly, looking in surprise at the man who suddenly appeared in front of her,
"Why are you here today?"
Lu Huaiyu looked at her, although he hadn't seen her for a few days, it felt like a long time had passed.
His eyes skipped her hand.
There was a business card between her slender and fair fingers.
His thin lips curled up slowly.
"Aren't I afraid that my girlfriend is too busy and forgets to think about me?"
As he spoke, he stepped into the room, held her hand, and flicked it with his fingertips, the business card fell into his hand, crumpled into a ball and dropped to the ground.
He closed the door behind his back.
At this moment, there was another sound of footsteps outside, it was the man who had just left and returned, and knocked on the door again.
"Miss Ning? I remembered something that I forgot to tell you—"
Lu Huai raised his brows slightly, and pulled Ning Li over.
Afterwards, he clasped her shoulders with his palm, and could not help but push her behind the door.
At the same time, the long legs bent slightly and touched her knees.
The two were so close together that it seemed that even the surrounding air became hot.
Ning Li opened her eyes slightly.
— There are people outside!
Lu Huai and his heart seemed to be agitated silently.
He leaned closer, wrapped her in his arms, bowed his head to bite her lips, and his voice was hoarse:
"Now, have you thought about it?"
Ah, continue to sort out the manuscript.
Four more today~
