82: The sense of security brought by my sonChapter 82: The Sense of Security His Son Brings

“Ji Yunhai, his heart is too cruel.”

“Mom will never remember him.”

“Nor is it possible to be sad for him.”

Zhao Manman discussed this issue very seriously.

In her heart, she was also quite considerate of Li Zhiyan’s feelings.

She knew very well...

Li Zhiyan hated Ji Yunhai.

He cared more about himself, so he hated Ji Yunhai to the core.

Li Zhiyan and Zhao Manman walked out of the train station.

Listening to Zhao Manman’s words, Li Zhiyan’s heart gradually settled down...

Indeed, he knew very well that Zhao Manman was a very strong and decisive woman.

It could be seen from her usual noble and cold demeanor.

Ji Zhiting’s daring to love and hate personality was, to a certain extent, completely inherited from Zhao Manman.

Li Zhiyan liked this very much.

“That’s good...”

“Anyway, I won’t allow you to go back to that sad place again.”

“From now on, you can just stay in Magic City.”

Zhao Manman touched Li Zhiyan’s head again.

“Mm... Baby, Mom will listen to you.”

“I’ll live a good life here in Magic City from now on.”

Walking out of the high-speed rail station, Zhao Manman felt that everything here was so free.

There was no longer the previous restraint and uncomfortable feeling...

“Mom, has the house at home been sold yet?”

Zhao Manman remembered the villa where she had lived for many years.

But she didn’t have a trace of nostalgia.

That place had completely nothing to do with her anymore.

“It’s sold...”

“A buyer was found not long ago.”

“The house was sold.”

“And those properties, basically, were also disposed of very quickly.”

“However, some properties that can continuously provide income have been kept.”

“Now, there’s no need to go back to Zhejiang.”

“You can settle down in Magic City.”

After the two arrived outside the high-speed rail station, Zhao Manman began to look for Li Zhiyan’s car.

In her memory, Li Zhiyan’s car was a second-hand Volkswagen.

Now he was rich...

He gave Wu Yuexian such a luxury car.

His car in Magic City should at least be a Mercedes-Benz S, right?

However, soon, her attention was drawn to a rolls-royce.

“Mom, get in the car. Today I’ll hold a welcome banquet for you.”

“This will be your new life from now on.”

After putting away the suitcase.

Li Zhiyan pulled Zhao Manman into the rolls-royce Phantom.

Only after sitting in the Phantom did Zhao Manman realize.

Li Zhiyan’s car in Magic City was actually a rolls-royce.

And his license plate was actually an A plate.

“Xiao Yan...”

“Is this car yours?”

“And it’s an A license plate, so you can freely enter and exit the city.”

Li Zhiyan did not deny it.

The A license plate was arranged by someone he found.

It was easy to change all his cars to Magic City A license plates.

Now his connections in Lujiazui were also widespread.

“Mm... Mom.”

“It’s my new car.”

Zhao Manman looked at Li Zhiyan’s profile.

She felt even more that Li Zhiyan was too mysterious and talented.

A young man with no background.

Yet he was able to achieve this in such a short period of time.

It could be described as an overnight success.

How many things about Li Zhiyan did she not know?

Zhao Manman’s heart was somewhat unimaginable at this moment.

“This car, I guess it must be over ten million, Baby.”

Li Zhiyan didn’t hide it either.

“Mm, this car probably cost about ten million on the road.”

“But I bought it cheaper when it landed.”

Li Zhiyan deeply felt how great the convenience brought by truly influential connections in this society was.

“Mm... Baby, Mom really didn’t realize how amazing you are now.”

“You gave Xian Xian a G-Wagon in Wan City, and you gave Xian Xian a large flat apartment.”

“Just these alone cost tens of millions.”

“You even bought a rolls-royce in Wan City.”

“All of these combined cost tens of millions.”

“You’re richer than Mom.”

After selling off the house and many assets, Zhao Manman had a lot of cash in hand.

But she didn’t dare to guess Li Zhiyan’s specific situation.

She only knew that her Baby was amazingly talented, with terrifying potential.

His ability was far, far stronger than Da Ting Bao’s.

If... Da Ting Bao hadn’t divorced him back then, she should actually be living very happily now, right?

“Mom, you will always be the most amazing in my heart.”

“I’ve always respected you.”

Li Zhiyan remembered how Zhao Manman had treated him these past few years.

Fairly speaking, she was truly a senior worthy of his respect.

Although she didn’t agree with him and Ji Mengting being together at first.

But after things were settled, she had always been very kind to him.

When things happened, she always treated him as her own.

Instead of seeing him as an outsider.

It was precisely because of this that when something happened to Zhao Manman.

Li Zhiyan was willing to come so far to help her.

To help her relax, to be so worried about her.

And Li Zhiyan truly always admired this very capable woman.

If it weren’t for Zhao Manman, the Ji family’s assets would definitely not have reached this point.

“You child...”

Zhao Manman gently took Li Zhiyan’s hand, enjoying this warm mother-son affection.

Such days, the longer they lasted, the happier they were.

The rolls-royce drove through Magic City.

Zhao Manman also kept looking at the bustling night view outside.

She couldn’t help but feel a little unaccustomed.

“Baby, life here is completely different from Zhejiang.”

Li Zhiyan also remembered Zhao Manman’s laid-back life in Zhejiang.

Life in the two places had their own characteristics.

“Life in Zhejiang is more suitable for a slow pace.”

“Every day is very relaxed.”

“However, after people come to Magic City, the pace of life will involuntarily speed up.”

“So many people feel very tired staying here.”

Li Zhiyan remembered his life after he entered society back then.

It was indeed very tiring...

If Zhao Manman hadn’t given Ji Mengting some money to subsidize the household expenses.

He would have had an even harder time during that period.

“Baby, you really had a hard time back then.”

“Actually, Mom’sConcept wasn’t quite right at that time, and I didn’t give Meng Ting that much money.”

“If I had let her live a more luxurious life earlier, she probably wouldn’t have been so impulsive and divorced you.”

“And the money I gave her at that time was too little, making your lives a bit tough, I’m very sorry, Baby.”

Of course, Li Zhiyan wouldn’t blame Zhao Manman.

“Mom... Whatever you decide with your money is right.”

“Meng Ting married me at that time, and we became a family. You have no obligation to support us.”

“Anyway, I always feel that you are the best mom.”

“And also the most important person in my life.”

Zhao Manman had heard Li Zhiyan’s affectionate words a few times.

Every time she heard them, Zhao Manman’s heart would feel an uncontrollable warmth.

This feeling was really, really good.

Although she understood that her status in Li Zhiyan’s heart was ultimately limited, she always felt happy when she heard such words.

Women all like to hear nice things, let alone when it’s said by their own son.

“Baby...”

“This doesn’t seem to be the way home, right?”

Zhao Manman seemed to have thought of something.

“Mm... Mom, I bought a new house in the city. It’s not very convenient for many things in the suburbs.”

Listening to Li Zhiyan’s words, Zhao Manman also felt that her guess about Li Zhiyan’s ability was still too small...

Houses in the urban area of Magic City are definitely not cheap.

How many things did he hide?

Zhao Manman found that Li Zhiyan was like a mysterious treasure.

There were even more magical places waiting for her to discover.

“Mom also plans to buy a house in Magic City.”

“To settle down here, Meng Ting and Xiao Ting will also have to come home often in the future.”

Li Zhiyan could also understand that since Zhao Manman was settling down here.

Buying her own house was very important.

“Don’t rush this... Mom, you can just stay at my place first.”

“Anyway, I have enough rooms there.”

Zhao Manman was very much looking forward to it.

“Mom also wants to see what your new house looks like.”

...

Zhou Lili’s company.

At this time, colleagues were all working overtime.

But Zhou Lili had always been very distracted...

She had no spirit for work either.

“What’s wrong, Lili, lately...”

An older female colleague asked.

“Nothing, Sis...”

“I encountered some things.”

Zhou Lili’s mind kept replaying the scene of Li Zhiyan driving a Ferrari and taking her younger sister away.

That Ferrari was very new, and it still had a temporary license plate at the time.

It was obviously newly bought...

A ferrari 488, plus the previous car, he had spent over six million just on cars.

So how much money did Li Zhiyan have? She no longer dared to imagine...

If she could marry Li Zhiyan, her entire life would be very happy.

Back then, she clearly had the chance to be with Li Zhiyan.

He publicly confessed to her after graduating from high school, so he must have liked her very much in his heart.

But now such an opportunity was wasted by her.

“Are you thinking about Pei Mengyang? Actually, you can be with Supervisor Pei.”

“He’s 27 and still young, and his annual salary is good.”

“And he has a house in Magic City. It’s actually very good to date him.”

Zhou Lili lowered her head.

“Forget it, I won’t be with him. I’ve already told him.”

After Zhou Lili talked to Pei Mengyang about this issue.

Pei Mengyang also stopped pursuing her. Seeing Li Zhiyan that day was indeed a blow to him. Anyway, with his conditions, it was still easy to find a partner.

Just not one as beautiful as Zhou Lili.

“Sigh... I really don’t understand you young people.”

“But Lili, adjust quickly.”

“Work hard. The competition in our company is still very fierce. If you don’t do well, you will really be eliminated.”

Zhou Lili also nodded gently.

She opened WeChat on her computer and saw the message from her sister again.

Since the last incident, Zhou Lili had not spoken to Zhou Mengmeng again.

Zhou Mengmeng had sent her many messages.

She hadn’t replied to any of them.

She felt that there was an insurmountable gap between her and her sister.

Li Zhiyan’s image kept appearing in her mind, and Zhou Lili realized that she actually couldn’t let go of Li Zhiyan.

If, now, she actively pursued him.

Was there still a chance...

Her heart grew more and more regretful, why didn’t she agree to be with Li Zhiyan back then?

If she had agreed, now, she should already be his wife, right?

...

After the car drove into the high-end residential area where Li Zhiyan lived.

It went directly to the underground garage.

Looking at the prosperous area, Zhao Manman felt very surprised.

This community was different from ordinary commercial housing.

The apartment types would definitely not be small...

According to the housing prices here, a house here would have to be over thirty million, right?

After arriving at the underground garage.

Li Zhiyan got out of the car, took out Zhao Manman’s suitcase, opened the handle, and pulled Zhao Manman towards the elevator.

“Mom...”

“You just arrived in Magic City, so you’ll definitely need a car a lot. Come with me, I’ll show you a treasure.”

Li Zhiyan touched the Ferrari key in his pocket.

He planned to let Zhao Manman use this car.

“Don’t be so fast, Mom can’t keep up...”

“Slow down...”

Although the underground garage was brightly lit.

But when Zhao Manman used to walk alone in such a place.

She would always feel very scared.

However, now, following by Li Zhiyan’s side.

That feeling of fear had completely dissipated.

There was only a very strong sense of security.

With her son by her side, she could face these things without fear.

Li Zhiyan walked very fast, and the 165 cm tall Zhao Manman was a bit slow.

Soon, the two arrived in front of the ferrari 488.

Li Zhiyan pressed the unlock button, then put the key into Zhao Manman’s hand.

“You’ve just arrived in Magic City, so you’ll definitely need a car quite a bit.”

“The Mercedes-Benz S at home can’t be driven here either.”

“You can use this car first.”

Looking at the ferrari 488 in front of her.

Zhao Manman was again very surprised.

Li Zhiyan not only had a rolls-royce, but also a Ferrari.

This ferrari 488 was clearly brand new.

And it also had a Magic City A license plate.

The combined value, Zhao Manman could no longer give an accurate estimate.

And this rolls-royce too.

”Baby, this car is also yours.”

Zhao Manman suddenly realized that her achievements, for which she had strived for half her life, might not be higher than Li Zhiyan’s.

How did he manage to do it?

”Hmm, Mom, if you’re in Magic City, you can drive this car for now.”

”It’s enough for daily errands in the city, and other cars can’t be driven into the city center anyway.”

Saying that, Li Zhiyan took Zhao Manman’s hand and placed the key in her palm.

”Then, Mom will take it.”

Zhao Manman didn’t refuse; she indeed needed a car.

At the same time, the emotion in her heart was constantly intensifying.

Li Zhiyan was truly exceptionally good to her, always thinking of her.

She must do well with the company in the future.

That way, she could become a strong support for her precious son.

At this moment, Zhao Manman’s career ambition was once again successfully ignited.

However, what gift should she give Li Zhiyan tomorrow?

”Let’s go, Baby, take Mom to see your house.”

”Although I don’t know what the layout is, Mom knows that my Baby’s house must be a mansion.”

Li Zhiyan took Zhao Manman into the elevator.

Then he swiped the card and pressed the ninth floor.

Looking at the very high-end decorated elevator, Zhao Manman’s curiosity was constantly piqued.

”Mom, don’t worry, it will definitely satisfy you.”

Upon reaching the ninth floor, Li Zhiyan opened the door.

A several-hundred-square-meter flat quickly appeared in their sight.

”So big…”

Zhao Manman’s mouth dropped open.

She couldn’t believe it was so large; the area of this flat was almost the same as the one in Wan City.

But that was Wan City, and this was Magic City!

And it was in the city center of Magic City; how much would it cost to buy such a large flat in such a place where every inch of land is precious?

It would probably cost at least tens of millions.

”Mom, come in.”

Li Zhiyan entered the house and put on his slippers.

Zhao Manman also placed her Valentino shoes in the shoe cabinet nearby.

After passing the entrance, Zhao Manman carefully observed the very spacious balcony and living room.

Although she didn’t know the real estate market in Magic City, she estimated that a mansion here would cost at least fifty million.

”Baby, how much did you spend on this house?”

Li Zhiyan didn’t hide anything; in front of Zhao Manman, he would say whatever she asked.

After all, she was his mother.

Of course, some absolutely unmentionable secrets were exceptions.

”It cost about eighty million.”

”The popularity of mansions here is still very high.”

Zhao Manman’s heart trembled; she indeed had a lot of cash with her.

But if she bought such a house here, and then wanted to start a business, she wouldn’t have so much liquid capital in her hands.

Buying a twenty-million-dollar house would be enough for her.

Li Zhiyan’s single house actually cost over eighty million.

Adding those luxury cars and mansions, his recently acquired assets exceeded one hundred million.

Ji Zhiting’s economic strength was indeed impressive compared to ordinary people.

But compared to Li Zhiyan’s financial strength, she was like a small animal.

And if Li Zhiyan’s economic strength were to be likened, it would be a ferocious giant beast!

The two were completely not on the same level.

Meng Ting, what did she miss out on?

Zhao Manman also didn’t know when she would be able to see Li Zhiyan’s true economic strength.

She only knew that she truly couldn’t see through Li Zhiyan.

”Xiao Yan…”

”Can you take Mom to see your company tomorrow?”

Zhao Manman’s curiosity about Li Zhiyan’s company was at its peak.

”Yes…”

Now Li Zhiyan himself had casually started some businesses.

Coupled with the departments Liu Yeping had prepared for him, there was absolutely no problem with profitability.

”Speaking of which, you and Xiao Ting are truly mother and daughter.”

”Not only are you both very good-looking, but you both want to see my company.”

Sitting down on the living room sofa with Li Zhiyan, Zhao Manman’s beautiful black-stockinged legs were together.

She asked, ”Xiao Ting also went to see your company?”

”Yes, I took her before.”

Zhao Manman also confirmed one thing: Li Zhiyan had indeed not taken any illegal or criminal paths.

Instead, he truly earned so much money with his own abilities.

”Then Mom also wants to visit your company tomorrow.”

Looking at the time, Li Zhiyan felt a little hungry.

”Mom, today I want to eat the food you make, okay?”

Having not eaten Zhao Manman’s delicious food for so long, Li Zhiyan truly felt a craving.

The food Zhao Manman made was truly the most delicious he had ever eaten.

There was no other…

Although Wu Yuexian also cooked very well, she was far from Zhao Manman’s years of culinary skill.

Various techniques, and dishes that opened up the taste buds on the tip of the tongue, she could perfectly create them all.

”Okay, whatever you want to eat, Mom will make it for you.”

Zhao Manman remembered that Xiao Ting Bao would always cling to her and ask her to make all sorts of delicious food whenever she came home.

”Then there’s a lot I want to eat; there are many ingredients in the refrigerator.”

”You can just make whatever you see fit.”

Zhao Manman was inherently very doting on Li Zhiyan.

Plus, it was Li Zhiyan’s birthday.

She naturally doted on Li Zhiyan, and upon entering the kitchen, she tied on an apron.

”Xiao Yan, come help Mom.”

Cooking alone was sometimes indeed very inconvenient.

Li Zhiyan also consciously helped Zhao Manman wash vegetables.

”Mom, was your cooking this delicious when you were very young?”

”The first time you came to Magic City, Meng Ting brought me a meal you made.”

”I truly found it amazing…”

”I truly miss your cooking every once in a while.”

”But before, I basically couldn’t see you, so I couldn’t eat it.”

”So I could only think about it in my heart.”

Speaking of past events, Zhao Manman still felt very guilty.

How good it would have been if she had been kinder to her children back then.

”Mom always felt that outside food was unhygienic.”

”That time I heard Meng Ting was in a relationship.”

”So I came to Magic City and cooked at a friend’s house.”

”She usually likes to cook herself too.”

”I brought it over for Meng Ting, and I didn’t expect her to give it to you.”

”She really liked you.”

Zhao Manman recalled Ji Mengting’s deep affection when she first dated Li Zhiyan.

She truly liked Li Zhiyan very, very much.

It was just that, perhaps it was the numbness from too much time passing, coupled with the stimulation of a huge amount of money, that caused their situation to become what it was now.

”However, no matter what you eat in the future, Mom will make it for you.”

”Anyway, Mom is also in Magic City now.”

”Later, when I buy a house, I’ll buy one nearby here.”

”When you’re craving something,”

”You can go to Mom’s place to eat whatever you want.”

Looking at Li Zhiyan helping her wash vegetables, Zhao Manman no longer felt the unbearable feeling she had once experienced in Zhejiang.

Here, there was truly nothing to fear.

As the two of them were cooking, the door opened.

Ji Zhiting had returned.

As soon as she entered, she shouted, ”Baby, I’m back!”

When she came to the kitchen, she noticed that Zhao Manman had arrived.

”Mom, you’re here.”

Ji Zhiting felt a little guilty; she hadn’t expected her mother to arrive so quickly.

”What’s wrong with you, Xiao Ting Bao? Don’t call Xiao Yan ’Baby’; it’s disrespectful.”

”I know, my dear Mom…”

Ji Zhiting ran behind Zhao Manman, hugged her, and began to kiss her cheek.

”Alright, alright, you’re so grown up…”

Zhao Manman was also overwhelmed by her precious daughter’s kisses.

”Go sit over there and wait for dinner.”

Ji Zhiting secretly glanced at Li Zhiyan.

She knew that Li Zhiyan definitely wouldn’t dare to grab her hair tonight.

She wouldn’t have to change her hairstyle to a high ponytail tonight either.

Sitting on the sofa, Ji Zhiting occasionally stole glances at Li Zhiyan…

Some things, after experiencing them, truly leave a lasting impression.

They would come to mind from time to time.

And Li Zhiyan also occasionally looked at Ji Zhiting.

Some of his changes were noticed by Ji Zhiting, making her pretty face flush with shyness.

”Baby, bring the food over.”

Listening to Zhao Manman’s instructions, Li Zhiyan obediently began carrying the dishes towards the dining table.

Ji Zhiting leaned in, sniffed, and also felt truly hungry.

”Mom, I finally get to eat your cooking; I missed you so much, my dear Mom.”

As a mama’s girl, after Zhao Manman sat down, Ji Zhiting intimately leaned over and hugged her arm.

”Alright, Xiao Ting Bao.”

”Eat well, Baby, move the dish on the left to the center.”

Li Zhiyan remained very obedient.

Ji Zhiting asked, ”Mom, you told me not to call him ’Baby,’ but why are you calling him ’Baby’ yourself?”

Zhao Manman looked at Li Zhiyan.

”Because I am his mother, and he is your older brother.”

”Don’t be disrespectful; how can you call him ’Baby’? Don’t call him that anymore.”

Ji Zhiting dared not reveal the secret.

So she could only reply, ”Oh, I understand.”

”I won’t call him that anymore.”

She knew very well that for now, she could only secretly call him ’Baby,’ or call him that when he grabbed her hair.

She definitely couldn’t call him that when Zhao Manman was around.

”Xiao Ting Bao, are you living here now?”

Li Zhiyan was now divorced from Ji Mengting.

So, in reality, Ji Zhiting and Li Zhiyan were strangers.

Living here was actually not very appropriate; if she didn’t understand Li Zhiyan, she definitely wouldn’t let Ji Zhiting stay here.

”Aren’t you living here too?”

That one sentence left Zhao Manman a bit unsure how to respond.

Indeed, logically speaking, she also had no relation to Li Zhiyan anymore.

After a while, she finally said, ”When I come to Magic City, where else would I live if not with my precious son?”

Ji Zhiting also said with a giggle, ”Then I’ll live here too; Li Zhiyan is my Baby too.”

”He dotes on me the most; anyway, I come here every Sunday.”

”Hehe.”

Zhao Manman felt a bit helpless; it seemed Xiao Ting Bao was truly insistent on living with Li Zhiyan.

Li Zhiyan was simply kind.

Even after the divorce, he was still as good to her and to Xiao Ting Bao as ever.

That’s why both she and Xiao Ting Bao loved spending time with him.

Although the relationship was gone, the familial affection was still so strong.

After dinner, Ji Zhiting also proactively went to wash the dishes; she always felt a sense of guilt when she was with Li Zhiyan and Zhao Manman now.

So she subconsciously wanted to avoid them.

”Dear Mom, I’ll go wash the dishes for you.”

”Let my brother take you to see the rooms.”

”I really like the room layout here; I’m sure you’ll like it too.”

Zhao Manman pinched Ji Zhiting’s cheek.

”Then be careful.”

Li Zhiyan came to Zhao Manman’s side.

”Mom, let me show you the rooms.”

He knew that buying a house would definitely not be a quick matter for Zhao Manman.

He himself had spent a long time choosing a temporary residence.

Let alone Zhao Manman buying a house for herself to live in; she would definitely choose carefully.

Even staying in this place for a few months was actually very normal.

And the longer she stayed here, the happier Li Zhiyan was.

Because that way, he could accompany her every day when he woke up.

Zhao Manman stood up and followed Li Zhiyan towards the secondary bedrooms.

She was actually very curious about the layout of the bedrooms.

”There are indeed many rooms here.”

”It’s easy to get lost.”

Zhao Manman felt that everything about this flat was good, except that the room design made it easy to enter the wrong room.

”It’s okay, Mom, you won’t get lost after staying a few more days.”

Opening the door to the room prepared for Zhao Manman, Li Zhiyan led her inside.

”Mom, look, this room is very spacious, with an independent bathroom and everything you need.”

”In the evening, you can also enjoy the night view from the floor-to-ceiling window here.”

The clean white carpets on the floor were all new.

The entire room was spotless.

Looking at the comfortable environment, Zhao Manman also felt very happy.

”Xiao Yan, you’re truly different from before; now, you make Mom feel at ease.”

Li Zhiyan opened the wardrobe and helped Zhao Manman make the bed.

”Mom, please don’t say that; with you by my side, I feel at ease.”

”This feeling of having a respected elder by my side,”

”It’s good that you’re in Magic City now.”

”I can also visit you often, just like Xiao Ting Bao.”

Zhao Manman found it a bit amusing.

These two children, one now called the other ’Baby,’ and the other called the other ’Xiao Ting Bao.’

They had taken her own titles away!

However, she didn’t think too much about it.

They were just two children; what could happen?

Could they even pull each other’s hair?

”Then Mom won’t leave anymore.”

”Otherwise, you won’t have anywhere to find Mom.”

After Li Zhiyan finished making the bed, he sat down.

The mattress was extremely expensive, given as a gift when the house was purchased.

”Mom, please try it.”

When Zhao Manman sat down, there wasn’t the slightest sound.

The quality of this mattress was indeed very good.

”Mm...”

”Very good, baby.”

Li Zhiyan knew that Ji Zhiting was still waiting for him.

He ran out for a moment and brought Zhao Manman’s suitcase inside.

”Mom, you can unpack first; I’ll come find you later.”

Zhao Manman gently stroked Li Zhiyan’s head and softly agreed.

...

After leaving the room, Li Zhiyan headed straight for Ji Zhiting’s room.

Ji Zhiting was currently sitting at her desk, working on homework due in a few days.

”Xiao Ting Bao.”

Ji Zhiting turned to look at Li Zhiyan.

”Baby, Mom came and you didn’t tell me in advance; we almost got caught.”

Recalling today’s events, Ji Zhiting still felt a lingering fear.

This feeling was truly not right.

”It’s fine; she won’t overthink it.

Is your homework urgent?”

”Mm... a little.

I need to finish and submit it quickly today.”

”Tomorrow is our baby’s birthday; we must be serious about it.”

Li Zhiyan walked over and gently kissed Ji Zhiting’s lips.

After gaining some experience, Ji Zhiting also responded passionately.

After a while, she voluntarily pushed Li Zhiyan away.

”That’s enough, baby...”

”Don’t continue; don’t let us get discovered.”

She was truly afraid in her heart; her mother had not yet recovered from the pain of that incident.

She really couldn’t bear it.

”You focus on your homework; I’ll sit outside for a bit.”

Li Zhiyan knew that Zhao Manman was tidying her belongings, so he didn’t disturb her.

Opening WeChat, Li Zhiyan scrolled to Zhou Mengmeng’s message.

”Yan Ge, my sister hasn’t spoken to me in a long time.

I went to her rented place, and she didn’t even see me.”

”What should I do?”

Zhou Mengmeng hadn’t sent him a message in a long time.

Suddenly receiving a message made Li Zhiyan feel a bit surprised.

”Zhou Lili, what’s going on?”

Li Zhiyan just felt that Zhou Mengmeng was pitiful.

As for the reason Zhou Lili was angry, it was definitely very complex, and Li Zhiyan couldn’t be bothered to analyze it.

Li Zhiyan: ”It’s okay, Mengmeng.”

”She is your biological sister, after all.”

”She might be angry with you for a short time.”

”But it’s impossible for her to stay angry forever.”

”And no matter what, I’m still good to you.”

In the dorm, Zhou Mengmeng looked at Li Zhiyan’s reply.

Upon seeing the phrase ”I’m still good to you,” her eyes uncontrollably blurred a little.

Although Li Zhiyan was a scoundrel, he was genuinely very caring towards her, making her feel a lot of warmth.

It was just that she really couldn’t be with him.

”Thank you...”

”I’ll talk to my sister again.”

Li Zhiyan: ”Tomorrow is my birthday; want to come out and celebrate?”

Subconsciously, Zhou Mengmeng wanted to accept Li Zhiyan’s invitation.

She had indeed never liked a male before, and Li Zhiyan was the only one who made her feel that sense of reliance.

But in a setting like his birthday, there would surely be many beautiful women.

Ji Zhiting would definitely be there, and perhaps many other beauties.

If she went, she would surely feel incredibly uncomfortable every second.

When he went out on dates with her alone, she could still deceive herself.

But...

She absolutely could not go to a birthday celebration.

Zhou Mengmeng: ”I’m not going.

You have your girlfriends to keep you company.”

Li Zhiyan was silent for a moment.

This girl’s principles were truly strong.

However, he could understand.

Ji Zhiting wasn’t the only one who was a jealous type.

Zhou Mengmeng was also a very, very jealous type.

Li Zhiyan: ”Then I’ll come find you to hang out in a few days.”

Zhou Mengmeng: ”I think we should stop meeting...”

”We have no future.”

Li Zhiyan: ”Mm... we’ll see in a few days.”

After that, he stopped replying.

Zhou Mengmeng looked at Li Zhiyan’s message and inexplicably felt a sense of relief.

She often suggested not meeting again in the future, yet she was afraid that Li Zhiyan would actually say, ”Let’s never meet again.”

Although she couldn’t be with Li Zhiyan, if they truly never saw each other again, that feeling would be too suffocating.

And Li Zhiyan also saw the message Ji Mengting sent him.

Ji Mengting: ”Baby, it’s your birthday tomorrow.

What gift do you want?”

Ji Mengting truly regretted everything now.

She was trying her best to salvage this marriage.

Li Zhiyan knew he should reply.

But after the divorce, he was already with Xiao Ting Bao.

Anything he said would be inappropriate...

After thinking for a moment, he exited the chat window.

On the other end, Ji Mengting knew that if she clicked into the WeChat message within two minutes, it would show ”typing.”

Watching that status, her heart held some anticipation.

As long as baby was willing, she would do anything.

She could even do things she wouldn’t have dared to imagine before.

Finding an unconventional way to please him.

As long as she could return to the past and get her baby back.

But very quickly, Ji Mengting was completely disappointed.

The ”typing” status in the chat window disappeared.

This made Ji Mengting feel incredibly lost.

She was still thinking that Li Zhiyan would say what he wanted, giving her a chance, or perhaps...

If he called her Ting Bao, she would truly be incredibly, incredibly happy.

But now, it seemed this could only be a fantasy and would not come true.

He must hate her to the core.

...

At this moment, Zhao Manman was also busy.

Her fingers were constantly moving up and down, chatting with Ji Mengting.

Zhao Manman: ”Da Ting Bao, Mom has arrived in Wan City.

What are you doing?”

Ji Mengting: ”Do you want me to pick you up?

I’m busy with fundraising at the company.

My company can definitely go public.”

Zhao Manman could tell that Da Ting Bao had a very strong career ambition.

However, she herself was also becoming more career-oriented now.

She wanted to increase her wealth so that she could become Li Zhiyan’s support in the future.

She loved her precious son to death now.

She could never let go of this child in this lifetime either.

Zhao Manman: ”No need, you focus on your own things.

I’m with Xiao Ting Bao right now.”

”Tomorrow is Xiao Yan’s birthday.

Have you prepared a gift?”

”Holidays are when most people’s emotions fluctuate significantly.”

”If you reconcile now, it’s a very good opportunity.”

”Mom hopes you two can be happy.”

Zhao Manman didn’t dare to say that she was staying at Li Zhiyan’s house.

She was afraid Ji Mengting would feel sad, as she was her biological daughter after all.

Logically, she should have gone to Meng Ting.

Ji Mengting: ”Mom, I told him, but he saw it and didn’t reply to me.”

”I think he’s really angry with me, or does he have a girlfriend?”

Zhao Manman: ”According to Mom’s observation, Xiao Yan doesn’t have a girlfriend.”

”If he had a girlfriend, it would be impossible for her not to come here.”

Zhao Manman knew that buying a house was a big deal.

If Li Zhiyan had a girlfriend, wouldn’t she come to live in the new house?

So, based on her analysis, Li Zhiyan did not have a girlfriend.

Zhao Manman: ”So the real reason Xiao Yan is ignoring you is that he can’t let go of what happened in the past.”

”No matter what, Mom knows the pain divorce inflicts on the other party.”

”If it weren’t for Xiao Yan’s help everywhere, Mom would have completely collapsed by now.”

Ji Mengting was very touched.

Li Zhiyan was truly filial to her mother, treating her completely as his own mother.

He didn’t find it troublesome at all.

Why had she never noticed before that Li Zhiyan had so many, so many good qualities?

”So, come tomorrow, Mom will secretly tell you the birthday celebration location.”

Ji Mengting: ”Li Zhiyan didn’t invite me.

If I go, will he get angry?”

”Will it make him dislike me even more?”

Zhao Manman: ”No, I understand Xiao Yan, this child.”

”His nature is very kind.

If you don’t come, then he truly won’t have any chance at all.”

”You really should seize this opportunity.”

”Otherwise, there won’t be another chance in the future.”

Ji Mengting: ”Then what gift should I give him?”

Zhao Manman: ”You’ve been with him for so many years; you don’t know what he likes?”

Ji Mengting: ”He likes beautiful legs.”

Zhao Manman: ”You child, what are you saying...?”

Ji Mengting: ”I’m sorry, Mom... I feel he’s become a bit unfamiliar recently, so I really can’t figure out what he’s thinking.”

”I have a feeling that after the divorce, he seems to have become a different person.”

”Could you please help me subtly inquire?”

”Dear Mom, this matter truly depends entirely on you.”

Zhao Manman: ”Alright...”

”Baby, Mom will help you subtly inquire.”

”Mom will send you a message later.”

Ji Mengting felt much more at ease looking at Zhao Manman’s words.

Fortunately...

Li Zhiyan was a very filial person, and his mother-son bond with her was also very deep.

Otherwise, even if she wanted to remarry now, she would have no direction or goal and wouldn’t know what to do.

Ji Zhiting: ”Thank you, Mom...”

Zhao Manman also felt a little worried.

She didn’t even know what birthday gift to give her son.

Actually, when she was in Zhe Jiang, Zhao Manman had already started thinking about this, but she hadn’t found anything suitable.

He wasn’t short on money now; just being expensive meant nothing to Li Zhiyan.

It had to be thoughtful...

However, she also knew that what she could do to help Ji Mengting was limited.

Li Zhiyan was indeed very good to her.

If she asked him to do something, even if it was a bit excessive, he would obey her without complaint.

But she had brought up the topic of remarriage a few times.

However, he clearly had no intention of reconciling with Meng Ting.

In this situation, what she could do was very, very limited.

If she couldn’t bring them together, then she would have to stop.

Otherwise, it would affect her relationship with Li Zhiyan.

Her three children were all that Zhao Manman had now.

And after a series of events, Zhao Manman had also elevated Li Zhiyan to the same level as Da Ting Bao and Xiao Ting Bao.

She had to treat them equally.

Li Zhiyan was also someone she couldn’t lose.

About ten minutes later, Li Zhiyan opened Zhao Manman’s room door and called out, ”Mom, may I come in?”

Hearing Li Zhiyan’s words, Zhao Manman tidied her clothes, then said, ”Come in.”

Li Zhiyan entered the room and saw Zhao Manman lying on the bed.

”Mom, what do you plan to do first?”

Settling in Wan City definitely required a process.

With his current network of connections, he could completely help Zhao Manman with things smoothly and unimpeded.

”Mom’s matters are not urgent for now.”

”Xiao Yan, what do you plan to do for your birthday tomorrow?”

Li Zhiyan sat down and then lazily lay there; in front of his mother, he was completely like a child.

”Me? I plan to drink a lot and get completely drunk.”

”Since I became an adult, I’ve gotten completely drunk on my birthday every year.”

Li Zhiyan still sometimes really liked the feeling of being numbed by alcohol.

Usually, there were many things and many words he couldn’t say or do.

But when drunk, there weren’t so many restrictions.

”That’s all you plan to do?”

”Okay, everyone will accompany Xiao Yan for a good drink tomorrow.”
