113: Be a true lover with you
Chapter 113: To Be Your True Lover
Li Zhiyan had been waiting for the New Year for a long time.
Before, he had always been trying to get Chi Wanwan to have a child with him.
However, perhaps because of their significant age difference,
Chi Wanwan had never been able to make up her mind to take that step with him.
Now, the agreed-upon time had finally arrived.
"During the New Year, I'll take Xiao Ting and Da Ting Bao to grandma's house."
"Then, I'll let them come to you for New Year's."
Li Zhiyan understood Zhao Manman's thoughts; it was indeed right to be with family during the New Year.
As for other matters, they seemed less important.
"Mm, Mom, I'll be home then. It'll be a long time until Mom and son see each other again."
As they chatted, Xiao Ting walked in from outside.
"Mom, school's out!"
Today, Xiao Ting was wearing a pink down jacket.
Her single ponytail looked very cute.
After coming to Zhao Manman's side, she took off her down jacket, revealing a white sweater that showed off her figure.
She leaned against Zhao Manman.
"Time really flies."
"In the blink of an eye, my Xiao Ting has been studying for almost half a year."
Zhao Manman finally understood why Xiao Ting insisted on coming to study in the Demon Capital back then.
She wouldn't even look at the other schools Zhao Manman chose for her.
Now, thinking about it, it wasn't that she liked the Demon Capital so much.
Rather, Xiao Ting had long premeditated coming here to study.
What she had in mind was to study here and then be with Li Zhiyan.
But thankfully, this matter had now concluded.
Now, her elder and younger daughters hadn't turned against each other because of this.
The two of them were very harmonious together.
She truly didn't want to see them turn against each other.
So, the current outcome was the best.
"Mm, Mom, in a few more years, I'll be able to stay by your side forever."
Zhao Manman stroked Xiao Ting's head.
"How old are you? There's no such thing as staying by Mom's side forever."
"I'm a mommy's girl, of course I'll stay by Mom's side."
At this moment, snow began to fall outside the window.
Looking at the tiny snowflakes falling, Xiao Ting excitedly ran outside.
Watching this harmonious scene, Li Zhiyan also felt very at peace.
Not long after, Ji Mengting also returned home.
Zhao Manman went to cook, and Ji Mengting asked, "It's almost New Year's. Are you taking me home this year?"
Li Zhiyan looked at Ji Mengting in front of him, feeling very conflicted.
Among so many girls, his relationship with Ji Mengting was actually the deepest.
After all, he had so many years of deep affection with her.
It was completely different from other women.
It was only because of her own choice back then that the two of them, who were once the closest, had gradually reached their current state.
"My family already knows about our divorce, so this time I'll just bring Xiao Ting home."
Ji Mengting was actually mentally prepared for this.
However, hearing Li Zhiyan say it,
Ji Mengting still felt an uncontrollable sense of loss.
This was all her own doing.
Everything could not go back to how it was before...
"Can I be with you?"
After Xiao Ting implicitly acknowledged some things, Ji Mengting also wanted to talk to Li Zhiyan.
However, she never had the courage until the New Year approached.
Ji Mengting finally couldn't control her inner thoughts.
She mustered the courage to say this to Li Zhiyan.
She knew very well that if she said it, there was still a tiny bit of a chance.
But if she didn't say it, she and Li Zhiyan would never have any possibility.
"Let's forget about that. Haven't we already made things clear?"
Ji Mengting lowered her head and said, "I mean, the kind that doesn't affect you and Xiao Ting."
"In the future, you can treat me as a maid, or something else."
Ji Mengting sincerely hoped that Li Zhiyan would agree.
Li Zhiyan didn't answer the question.
"Let's wait for dinner."
"I'll go help Mom cook."
Li Zhiyan went to the kitchen. Watching Li Zhiyan's back, Ji Mengting fell silent.
She didn't know what the future would hold now.
After dinner was prepared, Su Xiaojin and Wu Yuexian returned.
Liu Xiaoyun also came back with them today.
After everyone sat down,
Ji Zhiting said, "Meng Meng will be staying in the dorm alone tonight. She also has nowhere to go for the New Year."
Li Zhiyan knew that Zhou Mengmeng and her parents had already broken ties.
He was a witness to this at the time, so he remembered it very clearly.
Now, for Zhou Mengmeng, she was indeed homeless. This girl was truly pitiful.
He would go to the dorm to see her after dinner.
Liu Xiaoyun looked at the girls around Li Zhiyan and felt an immense headache.
The girls around Li Zhiyan were all too beautiful.
She had wanted to confess to Li Zhiyan a long time ago, but she never had the chance.
Now, the New Year was approaching.
If she didn't confess to Li Zhiyan now, she didn't know when she would have to wait.
Go for it...
Clenching her fists, Liu Xiaoyun thought to herself.
If she didn't take the initiative, nothing would ever happen between them.
"Xiaoyun, do you want to come to Huizhou after the New Year?"
"You can come to my house, and we'll share a room."
Wu Yuexian was genuinely afraid that Li Zhiyan would still cause endless trouble in Huizhou.
If they were discovered...
There were some things she truly couldn't bear.
If Liu Xiaoyun was with her, then many things would be much more convenient.
Hearing this...
Liu Xiaoyun felt a pleasant surprise in her heart. She actually really hoped to go to Li Zhiyan's house.
"Mm, okay, I'll go to your house after the New Year."
Looking at Li Zhiyan sitting opposite her, Liu Xiaoyun felt her heart pounding rapidly.
Tonight, she had to make things clear with Li Zhiyan.
"Xiao Ting, I'll take you two home early for the New Year, and then you can go with your sister to spend the New Year with Xiao Yan."
Ji Zhiting nodded. She knew that this time, she would be meeting Li Zhiyan's parents and relatives in a completely new capacity.
It was entirely different from her previous identity as a child.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.
For her, this was a complete transformation.
At this moment, Ji Mengting also felt that this might be a rather good opportunity for her.
After dinner, Li Zhiyan, as usual, went to the observation deck to enjoy the breeze.
With light snow falling, looking at the distant river view from here had a very romantic feel.
When he heard the sound of high heels, Li Zhiyan guessed who was coming.
However, the person who arrived truly surprised him beyond belief.
Turning his head, he found that it was actually Liu Xiaoyun who had come over.
"Sister Xiaoyun."
Liu Xiaoyun looked at Li Zhiyan's expression and asked, "What, disappointed to see it's me?"
"No, I've always cared about you."
Although she knew Li Zhiyan was just saying it casually, hearing such words, Liu Xiaoyun couldn't help but feel very happy.
The same words, spoken by different people,
could sound completely different.
"Xiao Yan, I'm going to your house for the New Year this year. Don't dislike me."
"How could I?"
Li Zhiyan looked at Liu Xiaoyun's pretty face and felt it was a pity for her to be with so many beauties.
Actually, her figure and looks were top-notch outside.
She was a goddess-level existence worshipped everywhere.
But next to the sisters, she seemed less outstanding.
"I actually hope Sister Xiaoyun can stay with me."
Li Zhiyan's words made Liu Xiaoyun feel some hope.
Perhaps...
She wasn't hopeless about being with Li Zhiyan?
As long as there was a glimmer of hope, she should try harder.
Thinking of this, Liu Xiaoyun also mustered her courage.
"Xiao Yan, Sister wants to tell you something."
Looking at the handsome Li Zhiyan in front of her, Liu Xiaoyun truly felt that she wasn't worthy of him.
However, that feeling of being smitten was completely uncontrollable.
"Tell me, Sister Xiaoyun."
Liu Xiaoyun lowered her head and whispered, "I want to be with you, okay?"
"I don't ask for anything extravagant, as long as I can be with you."
Liu Xiaoyun's meaning was actually very clear.
Hearing this, Li Zhiyan was also a bit stunned.
He had never thought much about Liu Xiaoyun.
After all, she was always with Wu Yuexian.
Many of her charms were completely overshadowed by her.
"Sister Xiaoyun, about this, how about we talk about it when you come to my house for the New Year?"
Li Zhiyan took Liu Xiaoyun's hand; the feel of her hand was really nice.
Hearing this, Liu Xiaoyun's heart was filled with surprise.
She hadn't expected Li Zhiyan to say that. From the current situation, Li Zhiyan clearly hadn't rejected her.
She could sense it from his tone.
He didn't want to reject her.
"Mm... my period just ended."
She calculated the days; her period would be over by the New Year.
Then, without a doubt, she could definitely do some things.
Thinking of this, Liu Xiaoyun was filled with anticipation.
She was already this old and had never had a boyfriend.
This time, she had to seize this opportunity well.
At this moment, Wu Yuexian walked over from behind.
Looking at Li Zhiyan and Liu Xiaoyun who seemed to be chatting, she also had an ominous premonition.
Although Liu Xiaoyun's figure and looks weren't as good as hers,
she was definitely a goddess-level beauty.
Something might happen between her and Li Zhiyan.
However, that feeling of jealousy had only just surfaced for a short while...
Wu Yuexian calmed down again. Actually, these things had nothing to do with her.
After all, Li Zhiyan never only had her by his side.
What did it matter to her if there were more people?
"Xiao Yan, Xiaoyun."
Seeing Wu Yuexian approach...
Liu Xiaoyun felt guilty, like a thief caught in the act.
Her face was red. Seeing her best friend like this, Wu Yuexian became even more certain about some things.
This brat...
"You two chat, I'm going out for a drive."
Li Zhiyan saw Wu Yuexian coming.
He went straight downstairs. After the two of them stood on the observation deck and watched Li Zhiyan's supercar drive away,
they both felt incredibly complex emotions.
...
Along the way, Li Zhiyan was still the focus of everyone's attention.
On the road, he felt that a wave of students returning home had already begun.
"I remember back then, at this time, I would also be happily preparing to go home."
Li Zhiyan recalled many past events; many things were indeed very interesting back then.
However, in just half a year,
his life had undergone tremendous changes. His current life and his past life could no longer be connected at all.
Li Zhiyan drove all the way into Cai University.
Upon arriving at the dorm entrance, he went straight to Zhou Mengmeng's dorm.
He knocked on the door, and soon Zhou Mengmeng appeared in his sight.
Zhou Mengmeng, who had just opened the door, saw Li Zhiyan coming.
She felt incredibly surprised.
"Baby, why are you here...?"
Li Zhiyan closed the door, sat on Zhou Mengmeng's stool, and then pulled Zhou Mengmeng to sit on his lap.
"I knew you had nowhere to go, so I came to keep you company."
"When I go back to Huizhou in a couple of days, just come back home with me. Anyway, your original home no longer exists."
Zhou Mengmeng nodded, feeling as if she had truly found support.
As long as she had Li Zhiyan, she wouldn't be without a home.
Looking at the bright and captivating Zhou Mengmeng in front of him, Li Zhiyan tugged at her twin ponytails.
"Your hair quality hasn't declined recently, has it?"
Zhou Mengmeng hummed in affirmation, watching Li Zhiyan lean closer.
She also leaned in to meet him.
The two embraced and kissed, Zhou Mengmeng was very cooperative.
Her longing for Li Zhiyan was deep, and it was all expressed at this moment.
Then...
Everything was very natural.
...
After a long while, Li Zhiyan looked at Zhou Mengmeng, who was tidying up the trash, and said,
"Why don't you stay at my place tonight? Although the dorm environment is okay, it's a bit too desolate. It's livelier with family at home."
Zhou Mengmeng felt very warm inside.
Indeed, this place, when her roommates were around,
she still liked it very much.
But not now...
Zhou Mengmeng packed her clothes.
She walked out of the dorm door hand in hand with Li Zhiyan.
Only to see Zhou Lili standing at the entrance.
"Sister, when did you arrive...?"
Zhou Mengmeng felt a little flustered.
"I've been here for a while. I heard you two were busy, so I didn't disturb you."
Zhou Lili felt very envious.
How wonderful it would be if she were the one doing the 'proper business' inside.
But everything couldn't go back.
Looking at the food in Zhou Lili's hand, Li Zhiyan knew that she must have come to eat with Zhou Mengmeng.
"Let's go home together."
Hearing this, Zhou Lili felt a pleasant surprise, and then followed Li Zhiyan home.
That night, Li Zhiyan tried to open Wu Yuexian's door.
However, she rejected him. Li Zhiyan wasn't in a hurry; her heart had already begun to struggle, so she wouldn't be able to escape.
...
Time passed quickly.
As the New Year approached, Li Zhiyan also planned to go home.
Zhao Manman had already taken Ji Zhiting and Ji Mengting back to Zhejiang.
In the evening, seeing that no one was paying attention, Zhou Mengmeng also came to Li Zhiyan's room.
After getting into bed, she helped Li Zhiyan massage his legs.
Li Zhiyan felt the massage of Zhou Mengmeng's soft little hands, and he felt very comfortable.
Lying there, he opened WeChat.
He sent a message to Chi Wanwan.
"Aunt Wanwan, regarding the matter of having a child that we discussed before, the time is almost here. Shouldn't we put this on the agenda? I truly want to be your true lover."
