Chapter 28: Half the Big Shots in Asakusa Are Here

At this point, all questions were answered.

It turned out that the reason Ji Yunhai kept a mistress was simply because this woman had given him a son.

And if he left this woman, he would never have another son.

In the long run, he and Zhao Manman were bound to separate.

This matter was very unfavorable to Zhao Manman.

Thinking of this, Li Zhiyan firmed his resolve to tell Zhao Manman about this matter.

"Xiao Yan, Uncle Ji told you this because he hopes you can keep it a secret for him."

"What man doesn't want to pass on his lineage?"

"You must be very short on money recently, Uncle will transfer one million to you later."

Li Zhiyan shook his head. If it were before, one million would indeed be a huge sum for him, but now it was nothing.

Moreover, even if he was broke, he couldn't accept this money.

"Uncle Ji, let's just let this matter go."

"I won't tell anyone."

Li Zhiyan certainly didn't plan to tell anyone else; he only planned to tell Zhao Manman.

Hearing Li Zhiyan say this, Ji Yunhai recalled what happened during the day.

He felt that Li Zhiyan, as a man, understood him very well.

During the day, he had helped him cover it up.

So, he would definitely help him cover it up in the future too.

Afterward, he tried various ways to give Li Zhiyan money.

But Li Zhiyan refused all of them, which made him wonder.

Could it be that his son-in-law truly didn't want money?

In that case, he wouldn't give him money for now. He would slowly test him in the future. One day, he would accept his money, and only then could he truly feel at ease.

"Good son-in-law, I have something else to do, so I'll be leaving first."

He patted Li Zhiyan on the shoulder.

Ji Yunhai returned to the villa, got in his car, and left.

Looking at the receding lights, Li Zhiyan's eyes were very complex.

Zhao Manman's fate was truly unfortunate.

Her daughter divorced, and now her husband had done such a thing.

"Let's resolve the beauty salon matter first."

"This trip to Zhejiang can also end; I miss that girl Ting a bit."

Li Zhiyan came to Zhejiang this time to resolve the beauty salon matter.

It was indeed time to prepare to leave.

The weather was very hot. After Li Zhiyan arrived at Ji Mengting's room,

He went to the bathroom, took a shower, and then fell into a deep sleep.

He was indeed a bit tired after boating for so long.

...

The next day, when Li Zhiyan woke up, it was already 9:30 AM.

He checked the time on his phone, feeling no sense of urgency about going to work as he used to.

His outlook on life had already undergone a completely different change.

He went downstairs and saw Zhao Manman sitting downstairs, seemingly having waited for him for a long time.

"Mom."

"Xiao Yan, come eat."

Today, Zhao Manman wasn't wearing black stockings, but her skin looked particularly fair.

Those long, fair legs made Li Zhiyan think of that pot-bellied man, Zhou Xiyou, again.

He would have to properly deal with him today.

"Mom, this afternoon I'll go help you resolve that matter with Zhou Xiyou."

"I'll contact Su Jinan later."

"I'm preparing to return to the Demon Capital."

He couldn't delay here for too long.

He still needed to put more time and energy into preparing to return to the past.

He needed to build connections as quickly as possible.

At the same time, he also needed to earn more wealth.

Zhao Manman brought Li Zhiyan a simple breakfast.

Mr. Su, is he that easy to meet?

Zhao Manman had many doubts in her heart. Most people couldn't even meet his secretary, let alone him personally.

However, to avoid discouraging Li Zhiyan's confidence, she didn't say anything.

"Did Uncle Ji come back last night?"

Hearing Zhao Manman ask about this,

Li Zhiyan replied, "He came back, but he left in a hurry for something urgent."

"I think you still shouldn't have too much hope for him."

Li Zhiyan's words carried some deeper meaning.

It made Zhao Manman feel a bit strange, but she didn't think too much about it.

At noon, Zhao Manman made Li Zhiyan another lavish lunch.

Around 2 PM, Li Zhiyan called Su Jinan.

Su Jinan was very flustered upon receiving Li Zhiyan's call.

"Mr. Li, what are your instructions?"

Li Zhiyan then said, "That matter can be resolved now."

"Find a hotel. That Hu Yun, and Zhou Xiyou, need to drink a few cups to apologize."

This era was a civilized era, so many things couldn't be done.

But if one drank too much and something went wrong, then no one else could be blamed.

"Then, you can come to the Nianhua Hotel later, Room 88888. I'll call them over now."

Li Zhiyan acknowledged him and hung up the phone.

Then, he shouted upstairs,

"Mom, we can leave now."

Zhao Manman came downstairs, still wearing black stockings paired with Valentino. Her heart was still very uneasy. Would Xiao Yan resolving this matter really not cause him any trouble?

Feeling a bit anxious, she followed Li Zhiyan into the Mercedes S.

"Mom, is your ankle okay now?"

Zhao Manman squeezed it, confirming that it didn't hurt at all anymore.

"It's fine. It was slightly painful this morning, but now there's no problem at all."

"It's basically fully recovered."

Hearing this, Li Zhiyan was completely relieved.

"Then let's go resolve this matter as soon as possible."

"If the beauty salon can't open normally, it will be a considerable loss in the long run."

...

Not long after, Li Zhiyan drove to the Nianhua Hotel.

After parking the car, he and Zhao Manman walked together towards Room 88888 of the hotel.

"Sir, do you have a reservation?"

"Room 88888. I'm looking for Mr. Su."

"Alright, please follow me."

Led by the attendant, the two arrived at the private room, 88888.

When the door opened, Zhao Manman saw a face she intensely disliked.

This man, Zhou Xiyou, who had harassed her for a long time.

And beside him, there was also a big shot of paramount importance in the entire Qiantang District, Mr. Hu Yun.

There was also Su Jinan's secretary, Shen Jianchun.

And several other gentlemen whom she had met during her business dealings.

And Su Jinan was also there, seemingly having waited for a long time.

Zhao Manman subconsciously looked at Li Zhiyan beside her, her heart rate accelerating slightly.

She had always believed that it was basically impossible for Li Zhiyan to solve her problem.

She was clearly being targeted specifically.

However, today, half of the big shots in the entire district had come, and what made her most incredulous was that Su Jinan was also here.

Instantly, Li Zhiyan in her eyes became mysterious.

Her heart rate was also constantly accelerating.

Li Zhiyan could actually achieve this much; her son was not simple!
