Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A small town in Chang Chun City?

As the niece of the Zhuang family, how could she have grown up in such a place until she was 18?

He did not seem to remember which of General Elder Zhuangʼs daughters was married to someone from Chang Chun City...

”Is that so?”

With just one sentence, Li Muyan knew that there must be something that was best kept a secret, thus he immediately pushed the subject aside and did not ask further.

In just a short half an hour, the ladiesʼ gathering had ended.

Ning Xi followed Meng Linlang to bid their goodbyes and left too.

With the sound of the springs and the tree shade with the shadows of flowers behind him, Li Muyanʼs lean figure stood at the resort entrance as he looked into the distance for the car that gradually left his sight.

As a diplomat, what he needed most was rationality, rationality, rationality.

Whether it was in handling state matters, or with his partner, he had a pretty harsh set of standards and criterion.

Yet, until he had met her, he realized that one day, he would also experience ”love at first sight”, which was a feeling that was without reason and lacked rationality...

The man pinched between his brows. In his eyes that had always been calm without revealing any gaps or emotions to his opponents, there was now a never-before-seen brightness.

This feeling made him frantic and helpless; even more so was a fresh experience that had detached him from his many years of inherent ideology.

”Muyan... Muyan?” Li You looked at her son and had a thoughtful expression.

”Mother.” Li Muyan turned around.

”You and Xiao Xi...” Li You paused for a moment, then she hesitantly said, ”Do you want Mother to help you find out more about Xiao Xi?

”Xiao Xiʼs situation is actually a little complicated. When she was first born, she had been carried home wrongly and for 18 years, she grew up in the countryside. Because of that, there was a huge gap of conflict between her and her biological mother, close to the point of severing ties.

”Back then, her biological mother had severed ties with Elder Zhuang because of some things...

”However, the point is that even though Xiao Xi did not keep in contact with her biological mother, the Zhuang family, from Elder Zhuang to Zhuang Liaoyun and Linlang, loved this granddaughter dearly.

”The reason Meng Linlang had been so angry today was clearly not to attack our Heavenly Spring Resort. On a larger degree, she was trying to support and establish power for Xiao Xi. Muyan, if you...”

Li Yu was about to continue when Li Muyan just cut his mother short. ”Mother, thereʼs no need. I donʼt want a blind date that will follow a prescribed pattern. Iʼll just go with the flow.”

Li You had initially just wanted to probe, but when she heard her son, she was shocked. ”Youʼre really interested in Xiao Xi?”

Until now, the thumping in Li Muyanʼs heart had yet to calm down. He looked at his mother and said, ”Mother, Iʼve never felt anything like this about a girl.”

When Li You heard that her son had finally fancied a girl, she was actually very relieved. Furthermore, her family background was pretty solid, and Meng Linlang was her close friend as well.

”Even though Xiao Xiʼs past history is a little bumpy, but with the Zhuang familyʼs layer of relationship here, her family background would be compatible with us Lis too. However, our understanding of Xiao Xi is still not very clear. How about...”

”Mother, I donʼt care about these things. Besides, the most meaningful part about getting along with someone is the process of really getting to know someone.”

Li You laughed helplessly. ”Okay, okay, okay, Mother canʼt beat you. As you wish, go with the flow. I wonʼt interfere.”

At the same time, in Meng Linlangʼs car.

”Xiao Xi, how was your chat with Muyan?” Meng Linlang pretended to casually ask.

Ning Xi nodded. ”It was pretty good. Bro Muyan is knowledgeable and heʼs easy-going too.”

Meng Linlang watched Ning Xiʼs expression and confirmed that there was nothing odd. She thought in her heart that he most likely just had a good impression of her and that she had probably overthought it.
