103: After much persuasion, he was half-hearted.

Chapter 103: Giving In After Persistent Coaxing

“What are you talking about, child?”

The WeChat reply came quickly.

Li Zhiyan knew it would be very difficult to get her to have his child.

After all, he and she were currently only at the D+ game level.

However, Li Zhiyan was still full of hope.

“I want you to have a child for me.”

“Otherwise, I’ll regret it greatly in the future.”

Soon, another reply came from WeChat.

“Auntie is already so old, how can she still have a child for you?”

Li Zhiyan: “I think you can, but if we wait another five or six years, it might really be too late.”

Chi Wanwan: “Are you serious?”

Li Zhiyan immediately sent an affirmative reply.

“Yes, of course I’m serious.”

“Aunt Wanwan, you are my girlfriend now.”

“Although we are together now, if we don’t have a crystallization of our love in this life, then how regretful it will be when we get old.”

“It’s still not too late.”

Chi Wanwan: “Let me think about it, I won’t give you an answer for now.”

Seeing Chi Wanwan’s reply, Li Zhiyan felt a secret joy in his heart.

It seemed that there was hope for Chi Wanwan to have his child.

He had to strive hard for it.

In this life, he must have a child with Chi Wanwan.

…

Soon, they arrived at the hotel.

Li Zhiyan helped the girls check into their rooms.

The rooms were quickly assigned.

Zhao Manman had a room to herself.

Xiao Ting Bao insisted on sleeping with Da Ting Bao.

Li Zhiyan knew that Xiao Ting Bao was afraid that Da Ting Bao would use this opportunity to rekindle her relationship with him.

So she planned to keep an eye on her to prevent any unexpected situations.

Li Zhiyan could understand this.

Hu Mengke and Xu Xuanxuan both stayed in separate rooms.

And the Zhou Lili sisters stayed in one room; their sisterly relationship had improved a lot recently.

Especially Zhou Lili, she clearly understood that her sister was not her enemy.

She had many enemies, and if she stood firmly on the same front as Meng Meng, her chances would be greater.

After all, which man doesn’t like…

After all, it was a different kind of feeling.

“Husband, are you staying here tonight?”

Ji Mengting felt a great sense of happiness in her heart, at least for today and tomorrow.

She could truly call Li Zhiyan her husband.

Everything seemed to be just like before.

The two of them hadn't divorced.

And Li Zhiyan was still her husband.

“I’ll go home and stay there.”

“Otherwise, my parents will have an opinion.”

Hearing this, Ji Mengting also knew that she shouldn't keep Li Zhiyan here.

After all, this was his home.

The many girls looked at Li Zhiyan, each with their own thoughts in their hearts.

After Li Zhiyan left, they returned to their rooms.

After leaving the hotel, Li Zhiyan asked the driver to take him to the side of Chao Lake.

Chao Lake at night was very quiet, completely different from the noisy nights of big cities.

Walking on the road, looking at everything familiar.

After a while, Li Zhiyan sat down on the steps by the roadside.

He made a video call to Chi Wanwan.

Seeing her beautiful face, Li Zhiyan also stood up.

“Baby, I miss you.”

Chi Wanwan said somewhat reproachfully, “Didn’t we just part not long ago?”

Li Zhiyan continued, “Anyway, Aunt Wanwan, I just miss you. You’re my girlfriend now, can’t I miss you?”

“Hmm…”

Chi Wanwan thought about it and agreed. She was already with this boy.

It was actually very normal for a couple to do some things.

“Where are you doing business now?”

“Is it far from my home?”

“If it’s not far, I want to see you, can I?”

Li Zhiyan felt that he really wanted to hug Chi Wanwan.

No other woman could replace Chi Wanwan.

“I’m in Hui Prefecture now, but it’s still some distance from where you are.”

Chi Wanwan’s hand trembled slightly.

“Then, you come find me, it’s not too late now, I’ll wait for you, okay?”

“Or, I’ll go find you.”

Li Zhiyan’s voice also trembled slightly.

“Then…”

Chi Wanwan thought for a moment and said, “Then let’s pick a place.”

“I’ll have someone pick you up, baby. Although it’s night, it’s absolutely safe.”

Chi Wanwan agreed to the meeting request.

After Li Zhiyan and Chi Wanwan agreed to meet by Chao Lake, he had someone pick up Chi Wanwan.

…

When Chi Wanwan appeared by Chao Lake, the bodyguard left.

A couple, under such a beautiful moonlight, would naturally want to be alone.

“Baby, I miss you so much.”

Li Zhiyan walked forward, and in the dim light in the distance, he embraced Chi Wanwan.

And although Chi Wanwan felt a little embarrassed, it had indeed been a while since she had been so intimate with Li Zhiyan.

Finally, after a slight resistance, she enthusiastically felt Li Zhiyan’s warmth.

Feeling Chi Wanwan’s figure, Li Zhiyan lowered his head and then kissed Chi Wanwan.

And Chi Wanwan’s response was also very passionate.

After a long time, the two finally separated.

Hand in hand, they walked by Chao Lake.

Chi Wanwan whispered, “You absolutely must not let your family see us.”

“This matter must never be discovered.”

Chi Wanwan knew that her relationship with Li Zhiyan could only be a secret, after all, no family could accept their son dating a girlfriend so much older than him.

Moreover…

If they were discovered, Li Zhiyan and she would never have peace.

“No, baby, don’t worry, my parents are probably asleep by now.”

Hearing this, Chi Wanwan felt much more at ease.

“By the way, Wanwan, what have you thought about the matter of having a child that I mentioned to you?”

Chi Wanwan’s face grew hotter.

She and Li Zhiyan hadn’t even crossed the final line yet.

She hadn’t thought about it for such a long time.

But now Li Zhiyan suddenly brought up the matter of having a child, which caught her completely off guard.

“Let me think about it, okay, baby…?”

“In a while, I’ll definitely give you an answer.”

“At the latest, it will be around Chinese New Year.”

Li Zhiyan breathed a sigh of relief.

This answer was already very good. He knew that if he wanted to truly break through everything with Chi Wanwan, it would be even more difficult than with Wu Yuexian.

After all…

For her to say that, she had actually made a great decision in her heart.

By Chao Lake…

The two held hands and walked, until much later, Li Zhiyan finally saw Chi Wanwan back.

…

Back home, after Li Zhiyan entered the house and locked the front door, he went to his room, tidied up a bit, and then secretly snuck to Wu Yuexian’s bedroom door.

This was a good opportunity to spend time with Wu Yuexian.

After knocking on the door, Wu Yuexian’s voice came from behind the door.

“You Hanhan, it’s so late, what are you doing at my room?”

Li Zhiyan whispered, “I want to talk to you.”

“Whatever you want to say, say it tomorrow.”

Wu Yuexian was very wary.

Although this boy was home, he probably wasn’t being honest.

She had been guarding against him lately, which was why there had been less interaction.

“I want to chat with you.”

Li Zhiyan knocked on the door again. Hearing the knocking sound, Wu Yuexian was afraid of waking up her aunt and uncle.

That would not be good.

After a while, after an internal struggle, Wu Yuexian still opened the door…

If she let Li Zhiyan fool around, it would be bad if others heard.

“You Hanhan, it’s so late, what do you want? Speak.”

Li Zhiyan casually locked the door.

This action made Wu Yuexian feel a little flustered.

“Li Zhiyan, what do you want to do…”

Li Zhiyan stepped forward and hugged Wu Yuexian’s slender waist.

“I miss you, we haven’t had any fun for days…”

Li Zhiyan could tell that Wu Yuexian’s acceptance of certain things was getting higher and higher.

Perhaps, this time, they could break through.

“Impossible, get out…”

Wu Yuexian really wanted to kick Li Zhiyan out, but it was so late, and she didn’t dare to make too much noise.

“Wu Yuexian… don’t you not want me to always pester you?”

“How about this…”

Li Zhiyan leaned into Wu Yuexian’s ear and said something.

“Just for tonight, and I won’t pester you anymore, how about that?”

Li Zhiyan knew…

It was too difficult to make Wu Yuexian let go of her thoughts and guards.

So he could only use a delaying tactic.

First, take a step further, and then deal with the rest later.

Wu Yuexian’s heart was somewhat moved.

She kept deceiving herself.

If she agreed to this boy’s request tonight, then she wouldn’t have to be pestered by him anymore. He would constantly run to her room and office to do things, which really gave her a headache.

If it could lead to him not causing so much trouble, then…

It wasn’t impossible, was it?

“Are you serious, Li Zhiyan?”

Seeing that Wu Yuexian’s heart seemed to have softened a bit, Li Zhiyan also felt that this was an opportunity he absolutely could not miss.

As long as he could get Wu Yuexian to agree, then everything else could be discussed later.

“Of course…”

“I always keep my word.”

Wu Yuexian’s heart began to be extremely conflicted.

“Swear it.”

Li Zhiyan immediately raised one hand.

“I swear… if I don’t keep my word, may I never find a girlfriend in my life.”

Li Zhiyan made a solemn vow.

And, this oath seemed to have already come true…

He indeed couldn’t find a girlfriend.

Wu Yuexian felt something was off, but for a moment, she couldn’t figure out what exactly was wrong.

This oath sounded quite potent…

“Alright, you have some sincerity.”

“Let me think…”

Wu Yuexian sat on the sofa, while Li Zhiyan leaned over, pressing close to Wu Yuexian’s side.

“Don’t think anymore… just agree, it’s good for you.”

Wu Yuexian didn’t speak. After a full ten minutes, she finally said, “No, what if by accident there’s…?”

“Then it’s over, absolutely not. You hurry back to sleep.”

Li Zhiyan didn’t expect Wu Yuexian to give such an answer at the last minute.

This was like a duck that was already in his mouth, just gone like that.

Soon, he thought of the key issue.

“I’ll go out and buy something, then there’s nothing to be afraid of…”

“Okay…?”

Li Zhiyan said in Wu Yuexian’s ear.

“No… Li Zhiyan, hurry back to sleep, you Hanhan.”

Although Wu Yuexian said this, her voice was already somewhat indistinct.

“Okay…?”

Li Zhiyan grabbed Wu Yuexian’s hand and shook it.

He knew that Wu Yuexian was actually tempted now.

So he had to seize this opportunity well.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to move Wu Yuexian next time.

“Okay…?”

After a long time, Wu Yuexian seemed to genuinely get annoyed.

“Oh, my goodness…”

“You are really annoying.”

“Hurry up and go.”

Li Zhiyan’s heart was filled with joy.

Indeed, it worked.

As long as it worked this time, there would be countless times in the future.

Li Zhiyan understood this principle very clearly.

So this opportunity could not be missed no matter what.

Subsequently, Li Zhiyan left Wu Yuexian's room, tiptoeing the entire way.

After pulling open the curtains and seeing Li Zhiyan leave, Wu Yuexian was instantly filled with regret.

What had she done just now?

It seemed she had agreed to Li Zhiyan's request?

Just now, it was all because Li Zhiyan had persistently worn her down, making her mind unclear.

That's why such a thing happened.

The more Wu Yuexian thought about it, the more regret she felt, but now, it seemed everything was too late?

...

The weather was already very cold at this time.

Li Zhiyan felt the wind was a bit chilly even with his coat on.

However, his heart felt very warm.

After arriving at a convenience store, Li Zhiyan looked at the chewing gum next to the cashier.

He casually picked up a few boxes, one of which had pink packaging.

What Li Zhiyan needed was this kind of special chewing gum.

In the middle of the night, a man should chew some gum.

"Hello, sir, that will be 101 yuan in total."

After Li Zhiyan scanned the code with WeChat, he also sighed, remarking how expensive chewing gum was now.

After leaving, a light drizzle began to fall, and Li Zhiyan shivered.

Only after buying an umbrella did he return home.

When Li Zhiyan returned home, Wu Yuexian, who was upstairs, saw him come back.

She somewhat flusteredly locked the door from the inside.

When Li Zhiyan reached the door of Wu Yuexian's room, he tried to open it.

But...

He found the door was locked.

"Wu Yuexian, open the door, I've bought it."

Wu Yuexian leaned against the door.

"You go back, I won't open it..."

At this moment, Wu Yuexian had completely forgotten her graceful Sichuan and Chongqing accent.

Her heart was in a panic.

"Open the door, we already agreed, your image in my mind has always been someone who keeps their word."

Wu Yuexian didn't care about her image anymore.

"That was before, from now on, just assume I don't keep my word."

Li Zhiyan: "..."

Then, he resorted to his old trick, gently knocking on the door.

Wu Yuexian's heart panicked, and she finally opened the door and let Li Zhiyan in.

"You blockhead, what exactly do you want to do..."

Li Zhiyan held Wu Yuexian's hand, locked the door, and then sat on the sofa.

"Didn't we agree..."

"Anyway, I've already bought it, you have to use it properly."

Li Zhiyan held Wu Yuexian, unwilling to let go.

Looking at Wu Yuexian's flushed face, Li Zhiyan kissed her.

And Wu Yuexian passively responded.

After a long time, with some reluctance and some yielding, everything felt very natural.

...

The next day, after Li Zhiyan went downstairs, his parents were already sitting there waiting.

"Eat, we'll go back to our hometown soon, today is a big day."

Li Zhiyan sat down, knowing very well that so many people were coming for his grandfather's eightieth birthday.

For the entire family, this was indeed a very important day.

"Where's Xianxian?"

Hearing Auntie Liu mention Wu Yuexian, Li Zhiyan felt a bit guilty.

"She might be a bit tired and needs a good rest."

"Dad, Mom, you two can take my car later."

Li Yunping, however, did not want to take Li Zhiyan's car.

"Forget it, I'll drive. Although your car is big, there are already enough people. Our Magotan is also newly bought, it's not like we can't drive it."

When Li Zhiyan heard his father say that, he didn't ask further.

After eating for a while, Wu Yuexian came downstairs, and after washing up, she looked at Li Zhiyan with some resentment.

After coming to the dining table, she also squeezed Li Zhiyan's face hard.

"Mercy, mercy..."

Li Yunping and Auntie Liu were used to their playful bickering.

Such a family had that warm and happy feeling.

After nine o'clock, Li Yunping set off first with Auntie Liu.

After the two left, Li Zhiyan also grabbed Wu Yuexian's hand.

However, Wu Yuexian very arrogantly shook off Li Zhiyan's hand.

"Don't touch me..."

"You Hanhan, you really tired me out."

"We agreed, I agreed yesterday, don't touch me again, understand?"

Li Zhiyan smiled and agreed.

"Understood, understood."

Wu Yuexian listened to Li Zhiyan's very insincere reply.

However, she had an ominous premonition.

How could this boy be arguing with her?

"If you dare to touch me again, I'll bash your dog head in."

Wu Yuexian clenched her small fists and threatened.

Then, she walked towards the door.

...

They got into the car with Wu Yuexian.

Every time Li Zhiyan tried to get close to Wu Yuexian, she would push him away.

And several times, she really wanted to hit Li Zhiyan's head.

This made Li Zhiyan temporarily give up.

Anyway, everything was already a done deal.

He would slowly plan for actual contact later.

No matter what, Wu Yuexian was now saying no but meaning yes.

Some things were fine if they weren't done.

But once they started, there was no going back.

Seeing that Li Zhiyan wasn't constantly sticking to her, Wu Yuexian also breathed a sigh of relief.

However, she remembered what happened last night.

She actually agreed to it...

Only after arriving at the hotel did Wu Yuexian breathe a sigh of relief.

Soon, the other girls would arrive.

He had to behave himself.

"Mom."

After Li Zhiyan got out of the car, he walked towards Zhao Manman.

Today, Zhao Manman was still as noble and cold as ever.

Li Zhiyan still respected this elder as always.

"Husband."

Ji Mengting walked out, dressed very beautifully today.

On this day, Ji Mengting really wanted to use this opportunity to deepen her relationship with Li Zhiyan.

Then, Ji Mengting linked her arm through Li Zhiyan's.

Li Zhiyan did not refuse; today, she was playing the role of his wife, as she should.

Looking at Ji Mengting like this, Ji Zhiting felt a pang of jealousy.

But today, there was no way to stop her sister from doing this.

And Wu Yuexian also couldn't help but feel jealous.

She suppressed her inner emotional fluctuations.

If she were to get jealous over such a small matter concerning this brat, then it would be endless in the future.

Wu Yuexian was very clear about how wild Li Zhiyan's heart was now, so she decided to pretend not to see such things.

Anyway, he himself said he wouldn't bother her anymore.

Their affair had come to an end.

"Everyone, get in the car..."

After Li Zhiyan and the many girls got into the car, he noticed that the girls' makeup was very exquisite today.

Even Liu Xiaoyun was prettier than usual.

It was like a hundred flowers blooming and competing for beauty.

Except for Wu Yuexian, who only wore light makeup today.

Li Zhiyan felt more and more the magic of money and background.

Everything he had now was built upon these two things.

The car drove towards the countryside.

Everything around became increasingly quiet; there was no longer the hustle and bustle of the city.

Wu Yuexian looked at everything outside.

She felt as if she had been transported to another world.

How long had it been since she had been to the countryside?

When Li Zhiyan's parents were busiest with work, they would often send her and Li Zhiyan to their grandparents' house.

Now that she thought about it, there were indeed many memories that made her happy.

The car kept driving, and Xu Xuanxuan, who had not been to the countryside much, clearly felt her eyes opening wide.

Electric bikes were darting everywhere on the road.

Many people crossing the road didn't even look at cars.

The driver's horn was noticeably busy.

And the extended rolls-royce was very eye-catching on the country roads.

The rate of people turning their heads to look was off the charts...

When the car arrived at Li Family Village, it was already filled with drums and gongs, and firecrackers were going off.

Grandpa Li Yuzhen's eightieth birthday was incredibly lively.

Looking at Li Zhiyan's festive home, Ji Mengting also felt a little excited.

Today was a very important day.

From afar, Li Zhiyan's eldest uncle was greeting guests.

Su Xiaojin stood out very prominently among the crowd because she was too beautiful.

In a rural place like this, she seemed somewhat out of place.

At this moment, Su Xiaojin was constantly looking into the distance, eagerly anticipating Li Zhiyan's arrival.

Yesterday, Li Zhiyan's stunning appearance left a very deep impression on her.

She felt that Li Zhiyan seemed to have countless mysterious aspects that attracted her, making her want to delve deeper and understand this mysterious cousin.

Why was Li Zhiyan so mysterious now?

Finally, she saw the extended rolls-royce coming from the village entrance.

This rolls-royce was simply too recognizable...

"Finally, Xiao Yan is here."

And next to her, Su Xiaolong also regained his confidence.

Last night, he scrolled through a lot of TikTok videos.

He found that there were many successful people in the world, and as long as one worked hard, driving a rolls-royce or Lamborghini was easy.

Moreover, there were many people with Maybachs on TikTok.

Especially the videos he saw of people who just graduated with tens of millions of assets, which resonated with him greatly, as if he saw his own tomorrow.

His cousin was indeed very impressive now, but he could definitely make a name for himself like those people on TikTok.

Surpassing Li Zhiyan in the future would definitely be easy!

It's just an extended rolls-royce?

Only tens of millions...

The future belongs to the young!

...

"Finally here, Xiao Yan, do you still remember Wang Li?"

This very common name sounded familiar to Li Zhiyan, but he couldn't recall it for a moment.

Wang Li?

Who is this person?

"Who is Wang Li..."

Seeing Li Zhiyan's confused look, Wu Yuexian found it a bit amusing.

"Wang Li, she's the one your aunt insisted you go on a blind date with, she's a bit older than you."

"She's Aunt's relative."

"At that time, Aunt didn't know you were dating Meng Ting, and she insisted on introducing her to you."

"Aunt was even considering it, but that girl's family said they wanted the girl to pass the civil service exam first, and then find a family with a higher income."

Only then did Li Zhiyan remember.

He had actually seen Wang Li's photo once, but for women who weren't beauties, he always forgot them immediately.

So it was perfectly normal for him not to remember some things now.

"That's all in the past..."

Li Zhiyan didn't bother with those trivial matters.

Wang Li's parents had very low education levels and very limited cognitive abilities.

So it was perfectly normal for them not to understand some things.

His parents' income was not low; it was just inconvenient to say some things.

The car stopped at the entrance.

Now, there were also some decent cars here: a Mercedes-Benz C-Class, a BMW 4 Series, an Audi A6.

The best one among them was a Maybach.

However, Li Zhiyan could tell at a glance that this Maybach was not properly modified.

The position of the small window was wrong.

An expert could see the joke immediately.

This car belonged to a young man from the village who was doing very well.

It was rumored in the village that Li Liang, who was almost thirty, opened a logistics company outside and earned a lot of money.

When he returned home, he was also very enthusiastic towards his fellow villagers.

He would intentionally or unintentionally show off his Maybach.

But only he knew that this car was a second-hand Mercedes-Benz S that he had refurbished and modified.

Of course, as time went on, Li Liang actually believed that the Maybach he was driving was real.

It wasn't until Li Zhiyan's extended rolls-royce parked at the entrance that he was completely stunned.

“Xiao Yan.”

Seeing Li Zhiyan get out of the car, his face turned a bit pale.

He suddenly felt that his achievements were truly nothing.

Everyone’s attention was completely drawn to this side.

Li Yuzhen also stood up, and upon seeing her grandson, her heart swelled with pride.

Her second daughter had told her today how amazing Li Zhiyan was, but she hadn't quite understood what was going on.

However, after seeing Li Zhiyan arrive in such a car, she felt like she had become ten years younger!

Among her children and grandchildren, her eldest son and Li Yunping were already considered very successful!

But...

Compared to her grandson, they were completely on different levels.

“Grandpa.”

“I wish you a fortune as vast as the East Sea and a life as long as the South Mountain.”

Seeing her grandson return, Li Yuzhen also grabbed his hand.

The grandmother next to them also leaned in, wanting to see Li Zhiyan's changes.

“You’ve lost weight.”

The grandmother was also very concerned at this moment.

The maternal grandfather and grandmother also gathered around.

This made Li Zhiyan feel very warm inside.

This feeling of having family was truly wonderful.

Ji Mengting, who was following behind, felt a bitter sensation in her heart.

“Grandpa, please sit over there, I’ll kowtow to you for your birthday.”

Li Zhiyan knew that Li Yuzhen was old, so it was better for him to sit there.

“Alright.”

Wang Li looked at Li Zhiyan, whom she had never met before.

She felt as if she had been dealt a huge blow.

Li Zhiyan’s wife was truly beautiful.

Moreover, her parents had initially wanted her to find a family with an annual income of a million yuan after passing the civil service exam, so that she could match her beauty.

After all, the current reality was that there were more men than women.

However, Wang Li never expected that Li Zhiyan’s car would be an extended rolls-royce.

This car probably cost a hundred million yuan.

Wang Li’s parents also looked somewhat pale at this moment.

Both of them seemed to realize their foolishness and ridiculousness at this moment.

It was truly ridiculous...

In fact, they had regretted it later after learning about the treatment Li Zhiyan’s parents could enjoy, and had asked Li Zhiyan’s aunt several times, hoping to arrange a blind date between Li Zhiyan and Wang Li.

But what they didn't expect was that Li Zhiyan got married right after graduation.

Moreover, Li Zhiyan’s parents even bought him a house in Magic City.

Their own daughter was still unmarried.

Regret was no longer enough to describe their feelings.

...

Zhao Manman stepped out of the car.

And the girls also stepped out.

Each girl was dressed very elegantly.

They seemed a bit out of place with everything in the countryside.

Looking at so many fairy-like girls, all the young people present were stunned.

A girl as beautiful as Li Zhiyan’s wife was probably rarely seen in many years.

However, there were even more girls who were more beautiful than his wife.

This...

Many people felt their worldview was overturned.

Those who wanted to take this opportunity to arrange a match for Wu Yuexian also consciously dared not think about it anymore.

Li Zhiyan was so rich, would he let Wu Yuexian marry those office workers they introduced?

Wang Li looked at so many beautiful girls and felt even more ashamed.

Her parents had actually thought Li Zhiyan was not worthy of her?

Now it seemed truly ridiculous.

Li Liang stood there, silently lighting a cigarette.

He had put on a show of being wealthy, but in front of Li Zhiyan, he was still so insignificant.

Su Xiaojin felt a sense of amazement in her heart; every time she saw Li Zhiyan now, a feeling of admiration would involuntarily rise within her.

Only her cousin could accomplish such legendary feats.

Su Xiaolong, on the other hand, kept thinking about the videos he scrolled through on Douyin.

After he graduated, he also wanted to be as glorious as Li Zhiyan.

...

He came before his grandfather.

Li Zhiyan knelt down and kowtowed to Li Yuzhen.

He presented his gift.

“Grandpa, I wish you a fortune as vast as the East Sea and a life as long as the South Mountain.”

Li Yuzhen also laughed heartily; his grandson gave him so much face, making him feel much more energetic.

“Good, good.”

Ji Mengting, who was beside him, also knelt down and kowtowed to Li Yuzhen.

“Grandpa, I wish you a fortune as vast as the East Sea and a life as long as the South Mountain.”

The old man, who loved liveliness, was very happy.

The grandmother, who was in charge of handing out red envelopes, took out two red envelopes from a stack.

Li Zhiyan took the red envelopes and handed one to Ji Mengting.

Putting the red envelope into her bag, Ji Mengting felt a sense of happiness in her heart.

Being able to do this was truly wonderful...

Zhao Manman also stepped forward.

“Old man, I’d like to wish you a happy birthday too.”

“I wish you longevity.”

After kowtowing to the old man, the grandmother next to them also handed her a red envelope.

Zhao Manman happily accepted it.

Subsequently, Ji Zhiting also came to offer birthday wishes.

“Grandpa, I wish you a bright future and a long life like the pine and crane.”

The grandmother also handed over a red envelope.

Afterward, Zhou Mengmeng, Zhou Lili, and others also came forward to kowtow and offer birthday wishes.

Both the grandfather and grandmother were very happy; old people loved liveliness.

However, as they looked at these young girls, they all had a very special feeling.

They all felt as if these girls were all their granddaughters-in-law.

While offering birthday wishes, the girls all presented their prepared gifts.

Then they all stood by Li Zhiyan’s side.

There were really too many people here, so standing by Li Zhiyan’s side was actually the best choice.

For a moment, Li Zhiyan was once again surrounded by beautiful girls.

The young people looked at Li Zhiyan with extreme envy.

Such a life, they could only scroll through on Douyin.

And those were just staged by internet celebrities; the girls around Li Zhiyan were much prettier than those internet celebrities.

Liu Xiaoyun looked around Li Zhiyan’s hometown with curiosity.

Was this where Li Zhiyan came from?

So ordinary, yet he had come to this point step by step with his talent.

He even had his own river-view villa on the Bund in Magic City...

Such talent deserved her admiration and affection.

Thinking this, Liu Xiaoyun’s admiration for Li Zhiyan deepened even further.

Wu Yuexian immediately saw what her best friend was thinking.

This woman...

She was truly a pure love-struck fool; she would probably agree without hesitation if Li Zhiyan asked her to do anything now.

She knew that she definitely couldn't persuade this woman.

She could only let her be.

Zhou Mengmeng also looked at everything here; compared to her own home, whether in Chao Lake or here, Zhou Mengmeng always felt a very unique sense of belonging.

As long as it was Li Zhiyan’s home, her heart would feel warm.

...

Li Yunping sat with his colleagues.

He, who was usually low-key, couldn't help but beam with joy at this moment.

Last time, when Li Zhiyan drove the G-Wagen, he had already gained enough face for him.

This time, he even arrived in an extended rolls-royce.

He also had twenty million in his card.

This time, this brat truly gave him face.

Those colleagues who usually boasted about their sons were all silent now.

Although he wasn't destined for great wealth, his son was.

Auntie Liu was also very proud!

She didn't expect that at over fifty, she would get a promotion.

Although her son was divorced, he now had a bunch of girls who could be his daughters-in-law.

If it weren't for the new society, Auntie Liu would even hope that Li Zhiyan could marry all these girls.

Then she really wouldn't have to worry about having grandchildren anymore.

At fifty, her life still had so many turning points.

It was truly amazing.

“Old Li, your son is really promising.”

“Oh, it’s nothing, nothing, just average...”

Li Yunping couldn't help but laugh.

...

While the villagers were discussing how promising the old man’s grandson was, another rolls-royce drove in from the village entrance.

This once again drew everyone’s attention.

“Another rolls-royce?”

“Could it be that everyone from Li Yuzhen’s family is a golden phoenix?”

After various discussions arose, everyone then fell silent.

Liu Qiangdong was seen getting out of the car with his wife.

Everyone was familiar with this entrepreneur.

Even the uneducated elderly in the village knew his name.

But today, Liu Qiangdong actually came to the village?

Auntie Liu and Li Yunping were both stunned; they naturally knew that Liu Qiangdong was clearly here for Li Zhiyan.

But they couldn't figure out how Li Zhiyan and Liu Qiangdong knew each other.

Zhao Manman’s jade hands clenched...

She realized that she seemed to have underestimated her son!

She knew Li Zhiyan had a billion yuan.

However, a billion yuan and a big shot like Liu Qiangdong, who was worth tens of billions, were clearly not on the same level.

And Liu Qiangdong actually made a special trip today for Li Zhiyan’s grandfather’s eightieth birthday.

Why was this?!

She knew that Li Zhiyan had a powerful background in Magic City.

But Jingxi was a Yan City company.

Could it be that Li Zhiyan also had acquaintances in Yan City?

Wu Yuexian was also very puzzled.

Looking at Li Zhiyan, she didn't expect that Li Zhiyan would even know such a well-known big shot.

She seemed to have never truly understood Li Zhiyan.

Liu Qiangdong led his wife and walked straight towards Li Zhiyan.

“Mr. Li...”

“Long time no see.”

He knew that this Mr. Li was the spokesperson for that big shot, capable of fully representing all of that big shot’s wishes.

So he had to cling tightly to this powerful connection.

He had to properly flatter and maintain his relationship with Li Zhiyan.

“Little Dongzi, long time no see.”

Li Zhiyan said softly.

This “Little Dongzi” left Liu Xiaoyun’s mind blank.

Such a big shot... in front of her younger brother, he was called “Little Dongzi”?

Liu Qiangdong quickly stepped forward with a fawning smile.

He had no resistance whatsoever to Li Zhiyan’s address.

Instead, he looked very honored.

“Long time no see, today I must properly kowtow to Grandpa for his birthday.”
