114: I can't refuse it.

Chapter 114: Relentless Pursuit, Unable to Refuse

Li Zhiyan had always been looking forward to it.

Although there was a significant age difference,

it was still perfectly possible to have children now.

If they delayed any longer, having children might become problematic.

After all, being an elderly primipara

was indeed quite dangerous medically.

Li Zhiyan didn't want to do that.

So, taking advantage of the present moment,

having a child quickly was the best option...

Meanwhile, Chi Wanwan also felt very nervous.

Actually, she and Li Zhiyan had experienced everything together,

but they were just one step away from the final act.

Having a child, this matter, still required her to make up her own mind.

Chi Wanwan: "Then let's talk about it when we meet."

Li Zhiyan looked at Chi Wanwan's reply, and he knew.

His relationship with Chi Wanwan was practically a sure thing.

After the two of them met, under his relentless pursuit,

she definitely wouldn't be able to refuse him.

Li Zhiyan: "Then, Auntie, let's meet in Hui Prefecture. I have something to tell you then."

Chi Wanwan: "Mm..."

Putting down her phone and looking at the snowy scenery outside the window, Chi Wanwan was trembling.

Although she tried her best to avoid it, the time she had set was approaching.

She had to face this matter properly.

Moreover, indeed, she didn't have much time left.

In reality, she was already considered an elderly primipara for having children now.

Fortunately, her body was very healthy and well-maintained.

Now was the best time to have children.

"Am I really going to get pregnant with Xiao Yan's child...?"

At this moment, Chi Wanwan felt her heart becoming increasingly restless.

...

On the other side, looking at Zhou Mengmeng who was massaging his legs.

Li Zhiyan looked at the snowy Huangpu River outside the window and asked, "Mengmeng, are you adapting here? We'll be going back to Hui Prefecture together soon."

"Mm..."

Zhou Mengmeng nodded, her face full of happiness.

"As long as I can be with you, nothing else matters. Just being by your side is enough."

Li Zhiyan pulled Zhou Mengmeng over, then embraced her in his arms and pulled the quilt over them.

In the howling cold wind, the two of them wrapped in the quilt and kissed.

After a long while, looking at the sleeping Zhou Mengmeng,

Li Zhiyan secretly went to Wu Yuexian's room.

Today, Wu Yuexian hadn't locked her door.

"Wu Yuexian, I'm here to play with you."

"Get out! Or I'll smash your dog head."

Wu Yuexian saw Li Zhiyan enter and felt he had ill intentions, so she decisively threatened him.

However, Wu Yuexian's threat seemed very powerless at this moment.

It had no deterrent effect on Li Zhiyan whatsoever.

"Wu Yuexian, what about the matter we discussed last time...?"

"You've been avoiding it before, but you actually know I'm right."

Wu Yuexian's face instantly flushed.

This brat really kept thinking about this matter.

It seemed he truly wanted to be entangled with her forever.

If she didn't agree to him doing certain things,

this matter would probably be endless, but some bottom lines were truly not that easy to break through.

Being able to accompany him in duo queue to climb ranks when they had tools already involved a deep struggle within her.

Now he still wanted to...

"Liu Xiaoyun will be coming to sleep here soon. If you're not afraid of being discovered, then come."

Saying that, Wu Yuexian lay there motionless.

She seemed completely indifferent.

"Anyway, you can't run away. I'll see how you run when we get home."

Li Zhiyan swallowed, though he really wanted to do something at this moment.

But it was clear Liu Xiaoyun was coming, so it wasn't suitable.

"Alright."

"Anyway, you can't run away."

After Li Zhiyan left the room, Wu Yuexian's heart pounded.

Her heart was also extremely conflicted.

Actually, the feeling without tools was more real, wasn't it?

But she herself...

Could she really...?

Just thinking about certain possibilities made Wu Yuexian's heart incredibly nervous.

Soon, Liu Xiaoyun walked in from outside.

"Xianxian, why is your face so red?"

Liu Xiaoyun, wearing her pajamas, asked curiously.

"But you look really good like this."

As she spoke, Liu Xiaoyun was very envious of Wu Yuexian's looks and figure.

D36, that was truly something she couldn't compare to.

And her legs weren't as long as Wu Yuexian's either.

"It's nothing..."

"Nothing at all."

Hearing Wu Yuexian's flustered voice, Liu Xiaoyun asked, "Did Li Zhiyan come over?"

Seeing Wu Yuexian not speak, Liu Xiaoyun also realized something.

It seemed that was indeed the case.

"You two wouldn't have..."

Hearing Liu Xiaoyun's guess, Wu Yuexian immediately covered Liu Xiaoyun's mouth.

"Don't talk nonsense, it's nothing of the sort..."

Then the two best friends started playing around together.

...

The next day, Hu Mengke sent a message to Li Zhiyan.

Li Zhiyan didn't refuse Hu Mengke's request to meet and went to the company.

Most of the people at the company were on holiday now.

Those who remained were employees planning to earn overtime pay here during the New Year.

Upon seeing Li Zhiyan arrive, Hu Mengke greeted him as usual.

"Boss, you're here."

Looking at Li Zhiyan, Hu Mengke was incredibly enthusiastic.

She knew better than anyone who had given her everything she had today.

Without Li Zhiyan, she would definitely still be living an incredibly ordinary life.

It would be absolutely impossible for her to have everything she had now.

"Mm, I'm going home."

"Mm..."

Hu Mengke and Li Zhiyan walked towards his office together.

Upon arriving at the office, looking at the familiar fitness equipment inside, she remembered the physical activities they had done together.

Hu Mengke felt a strange sense of sadness in her heart.

But it was alright, it was just for the New Year.

She would be able to return to this place soon.

Before Hu Mengke could speak, Li Zhiyan started to act.

And Hu Mengke now also knew very well how to respond to Li Zhiyan.

...

A long time later, Li Zhiyan and Hu Mengke lay together on the sofa, looking at the scenery outside the window.

Light snow had started to fall again, unnoticed.

"Boss, I'm going home."

Li Zhiyan gently touched Hu Mengke's pretty face.

"When you go home this time, your family should be very happy, right?"

Li Zhiyan knew that Hu Mengke had recently bought a Mercedes-Benz E300.

As his secretary, plus the money he gave her, it was very easy for her to buy such a car.

"Mm... I guess I've made something of myself, but it's all thanks to you, Boss. If it weren't for you, I'd be nothing."

"Boss, from now on, I will only be devoted to staying by your side."

Li Zhiyan looked at this gold digger and patted her head.

"Alright, go home. I have something else to do later."

He was leaving, and Li Zhiyan planned to go see Xu Yingying.

His relationship with Auntie Xu was very good, and since he was leaving, he naturally had to go chat with her.

At the same time, he wanted to see if there were any chores he needed to do at home.

After all, he was a very filial person.

He was always so meticulous towards elders...

For example, he was like that with Zhao Manman.

Now, he had to do the same for Xu Yingying.

Thinking of this...

"Mm..."

"Then I'll go home first, Boss."

"I'll miss you."

After Hu Mengke tidied her hair, she parted ways with Li Zhiyan.

She felt that she seemed to have truly fallen in love with Li Zhiyan.

Her heart only wanted to stay with Li Zhiyan for a lifetime.

As for other things, they were simply not important to her.

Hu Mengke left quickly, and there were no familiar faces left in the company.

There was no point in him staying here anymore.

Subsequently, Li Zhiyan sent a message to Xu Yingying.

"Auntie, are you free? I'll come to your house later."

Xu Yingying's reply was instantaneous.

She could be said to be very attentive to Li Zhiyan.

"Come on, Xiao Yan. Xuanxuan is also on holiday and is at home."

"Auntie will cook for you later."

Hearing this, Li Zhiyan was very much looking forward to it.

Zhao Manman had already gone home...

He wouldn't be able to eat any delicious food, and although Xu Yingying's cooking wasn't as good as Zhao Manman's,

it was definitely very tasty.

So Li Zhiyan was very much looking forward to Xu Yingying's meal.

...

Xu Yingying looked at her somewhat lazy daughter beside her and said, "Daughter, hurry up and put on some makeup. Xiao Yan will be coming to our house for dinner later."

Upon hearing that Li Zhiyan was coming for dinner,

Xu Xuanxuan obediently went back to her room to put on makeup.

No matter what, seeing Li Zhiyan was indeed a very formal occasion.

She had to treat it seriously.

And Xu Lingyu, who was beside them, stood up.

"I still have some things to do, so I'll go out first."

Xu Yingying didn't pay attention to Xu Lingyu leaving.

Anyway, they had been sleeping separately for so many years.

It didn't really make a difference whether he was home or not.

"Go, go. It saves me from getting annoyed looking at you here. It's almost time, I can start cooking."

Not long after Xu Lingyu left, Li Zhiyan arrived.

After Xu Xuanxuan opened the door,

Li Zhiyan kissed her on the cheek.

"I'm going back to Hui Prefecture this afternoon."

Hearing that Li Zhiyan was going back to Hui Prefecture...

Xu Xuanxuan also felt very reluctant.

Pulling Li Zhiyan to the living room, Xu Yingying also came to greet him.

"Xiao Yan is here."

"Rest for a bit, dinner will be ready soon."

Xu Yingying also knew that after this meal, Li Zhiyan would be going home for the New Year.

She had to quickly get him to help her with a massage.

This way, her strain could heal more thoroughly.

In Xu Yingying's heart, she always cherished the time she spent with Li Zhiyan.

To her, those moments were very precious.

"Auntie, let me help you."

Li Zhiyan went to the kitchen.

Helping Xu Yingying start cooking made Xu Yingying feel very happy.

The things Li Zhiyan was willing to do for her were truly too many.

This truly moved her deeply.

"Xiao Yan, Auntie is truly touched that you still remember to come see Auntie before you leave."

Li Zhiyan looked at Xu Yingying's injury.

"Auntie, after dinner, I'll help you massage your injury. After all, this is a serious matter and can't be delayed."

Xu Yingying hummed in agreement.

Soon, one delicious dish after another was placed on the dining table.

Li Zhiyan also ate heartily.

After lunch, Xu Xuanxuan felt a little sleepy, and she also knew.

Li Zhiyan was going to help her mother treat the strain.

So it was better for her not to disturb them.

After Xu Xuanxuan left, Li Zhiyan said, "Auntie, I'll help you with the treatment later."

Xu Yingying tidied the dishes and chopsticks, saying, "You can go wait in Auntie's room."

Li Zhiyan didn't say much and went to Xu Yingying's room.

After Xu Yingying arrived in the room, Li Zhiyan began the medical massage.

...

It was already afternoon when Li Zhiyan left.

When he returned to the villa, Wu Yuexian came over with Zhou Lili and Zhou Mengmeng.

"Liu Xiaoyun has already gone home for the New Year. She'll come to our house to play after the New Year."

Li Zhiyan could understand this matter...

As the car started, Li Zhiyan's villa also became quiet.

On the road, Zhou Mengmeng looked at everything around her.

Her heart felt incredibly warm and happy.

Everyone quietly looked at the scenery outside the window, not speaking much.

When the car arrived in Hui Prefecture, Wu Yuexian also stretched lazily.

They had finally reached the borders of Hui Prefecture, and soon they would be able to see Uncle and Auntie.

And she and Li Zhiyan could briefly return to their childhood days.

However...

Wu Yuexian's heart once again thought of some things Li Zhiyan wanted to do.

This made her feel a little flustered.

"Uncle is so proud now. He wasn't even this happy when Auntie got promoted."

"I heard he carries a teacup around all day, visiting his colleagues' homes."

Recalling what Auntie Liu had told her about Uncle,

Wu Yuexian also found it amusing.

Zhou Lili, who was beside her, also started chatting with her.

They arrived home, and the car stopped at the entrance.

Li Yunping and Auntie Liu came out to greet them.

"Son, you're back."

Auntie Liu looked at the two girls Li Zhiyan brought and felt very satisfied.

After her son's divorce, she had been worried he wouldn't find anyone.

Now she was thinking about who to choose as her daughter-in-law.

Auntie Liu was very satisfied with Zhou Mengmeng; she really liked this prospective daughter-in-law.

"Xianxian, let's go home."

"Mengmeng, Lili, come on, Auntie will make dumplings for you."

The family entered the courtyard, and the cold wind was blocked outside the yard.

Li Zhiyan looked at his father, who was indeed beaming with pride.

He also felt that his father had never been so happy before.

Back in the living room, Li Yunping picked up his glasses and continued reading the newspaper.

In the kitchen, four women were making dumplings together.

And Li Zhiyan returned to his room.

He turned on the air conditioner and leisurely watched the falling snow outside the window.

Then he sent a message to Chi Wanwan.

"Auntie."

"I'm home already. When are you coming to find me?"

Chi Wanwan's message was still an instant reply.

"Soon, it's just these few days. I'll definitely come find you before the New Year. (smirking emoji)"

At this moment, after Chi Wanwan replied to the message,

she felt her heart beating faster and faster...

The matter of having children, she ultimately couldn't avoid it.
