30: Zhao Manman's Curiosity

Chapter 30: Zhao Manman’s Curiosity

Hearing Zhao Manman call him, Li Zhiyan turned his head.

“Mom, what’s wrong?”

Zhao Manman’s slender fingers were pressed together.

“Mom wants to ask you, how did you do it?”

Li Zhiyan started the car and headed towards the high-speed rail station.

“I have some connections with Mr. Su, so if you ever need anything in the future, you can ask him for help.”

Li Zhiyan didn’t go into too much detail…

Going back to the past was a secret that he and Xiao Li had to keep buried in their hearts forever; it was impossible for anyone else to know, not even the closest people.

Zhao Manman didn’t press the matter further.

She was a very understanding woman who wouldn’t make others feel awkward.

She never probed into things that others didn’t want to talk about.

However, Li Zhiyan’s image in her heart had become mysterious.

“Aren’t you staying in Zhejiang for a few more days? Actually, there are many other places to visit, and Mom has a lot of free time recently.”

Li Zhiyan shook his head…

His current priority was still his plan to return to the past.

There were too many things to do, and he wasn’t in the mood to continue playing here.

“Mom, I have things to do.”

“I really can’t leave the Demon City side, and Xiao Ting just started school, so there are bound to be many things at school.”

“Meng Ting is usually quite busy, and you wouldn’t want Xiao Ting to be unable to find someone if she needs anything now, would you?”

Zhao Manman knew that Li Zhiyan really had to go back.

“Then you go ahead and be busy. Mom will come to see you in a while.”

Li Zhiyan glanced at Zhao Manman, then drove straight to the high-speed rail station.

He stopped the car at the high-speed rail station, and Zhao Manman also got out, intending to see Li Zhiyan off.

“Mom, your ankle is still inconvenient. Don’t see me off. If it still hurts, remember to gently rub it.”

Li Zhiyan instructed.

After Li Zhiyan left, Zhao Manman got into the car, changed into her flat shoes, and looked at Li Zhiyan’s retreating figure. She felt that Li Zhiyan truly had too many mysterious aspects, completely different from the ordinary young man in business she had in mind.

…

Upon arriving in Demon City, Li Zhiyan sent a message to the driver.

After getting off the train, Old Zhang was already waiting for him at the high-speed rail station entrance with the car.

“Let’s go home.”

Sitting in the back seat, Li Zhiyan checked his WeChat messages.

Liu Xiaoyan: “Brother, some boys at school are pursuing Xiao Ting, but I’ve fended them off.”

Song Zhenzhen also provided him with some information.

Both of them were acting as deterrents to Ji Zhiting’s pursuers, making them give up.

This made Li Zhiyan feel that the money he spent on that meal earlier was not wasted.

Tomorrow, when he went to school, he would prepare a set of cosmetics for them as a thank you.

How was that girl Zhou Mengmeng doing…

Li Zhiyan thought for a moment and sent a WeChat message to Song Zhenzhen.

“How is Zhou Mengmeng doing?”

Song Zhenzhen: “Brother, she’s too shy, a bit introverted, and doesn’t talk much usually.”

“Many boys are pursuing her too, but she never talks to anyone.”

“One time, a boy kept chasing her for her contact information. If I hadn’t been there to shield her…”

“She would have cried.”

Li Zhiyan: “Then please take more care of her in the future. After all, she’s my classmate’s younger sister, and she’s like my own younger sister.”

Song Zhenzhen: “Don’t worry, Brother. Are you coming to school recently?”

Li Zhiyan: “I should go to school tomorrow.”

Li Zhiyan then sent another message to Ji Zhiting.

“Tingting, I’ll come to school to see you tomorrow.”

Ji Zhiting’s message was an instant reply: “Really?”

“Brother, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. You’re finally coming.”

“I’m going to military training now, so I’ll talk to you later.”

Accompanying it was a very cute emoji.

Looking at the cute emoji, Li Zhiyan also smiled gently.

…

After arriving home.

Li Zhiyan rested for a while, preparing for the upcoming matters.

“I still need to open a company, at least on the surface, to cover my tracks…”

“I spend most of my time living in Demon City, so I still need to establish my network of connections in Demon City first.”

Li Zhiyan searched for information on some prominent figures in his district.

Then, he called the law firm again.

After their previous cooperation, Haoye Law Firm agreed very readily this time.

Although the person Li Zhiyan wanted to investigate had a formidable identity.

However, all he wanted was some old information.

This was simply not a problem.

After hanging up the phone, Li Zhiyan continued to collect information.

“If I want to make money in the short term, I still need to consider the futures market…”

“After all, the returns under leverage are quite terrifying.”

Li Zhiyan began to memorize a lot of past futures information.

He mainly focused on the overseas market, as the domestic market had too many rules and restrictions, making it unsuitable for someone like him with an information advantage.

Except for major market trends, Li Zhiyan didn’t plan to gamble heavily. He only intended to make a few tens of millions, so as long as he kept an eye on the trend, there would be no risk.

It was past eight o’clock when Li Zhiyan felt a bit hungry.

He closed his laptop.

He planned to find a restaurant for dinner.

“Since I’m buying a car, I’ll get a Ferrari first.”

Just as Li Zhiyan was about to go out.

A knock on the door sounded.

“Mr. Li, are you home?”

Li Zhiyan initially thought it was Ji Mengting or Ji Zhiting returning, but hearing the voice, he found it somewhat unfamiliar.

Opening the door, Li Zhiyan saw a beautiful woman in a bank uniform.

This beauty immediately left a deep impression on Li Zhiyan.

Because she was a typical “coconut tree type” beauty.

Recently, Coconut Tree’s live streams have been very popular online, and netizens jokingly say that the boss’s aesthetic hasn’t changed after all these years.

She seemed slightly plump, but she didn’t look fat at all…

Her pretty face was full of vitality, and her figure was very full, slim where it should be, and plump where it should be.

“You are.”

The girl took out her work ID.

“Mr. Li, I am a bank employee, my name is Xu Xuanxuan, and I am your personal customer service representative.”

Xu Xuanxuan was very enthusiastic.

Li Zhiyan remembered that Sun Biao had indeed mentioned a recent university graduate whom he wanted to be his personal customer service representative.

He had added her on WeChat and then didn’t think much of it.

But he didn’t expect her to come here today.

“Please come in.”

Xu Xuanxuan did not enter the door.

“No, Mr. Li, I’ve brought your China Construction Bank Black Card for you.”

“Also, this is the dinner I made for you myself.”

“If you have any banking matters, you can directly send me a WeChat message.”

“If you need me for any personal matters in your daily life, you can also call me.”

Li Zhiyan glanced at Xu Xuanxuan in front of him.

“Personal matters too?”

Xu Xuanxuan nodded. Sun Biao had told her many times.

If she could secure Li Zhiyan as a major client, the next manager position would be hers.

Such a big promise made Xu Xuanxuan very excited.

“Just send me a WeChat message if you need anything.”

“I won’t disturb your life anymore.”

“Bye-bye.”

Smiling sweetly, Xu Xuanxuan turned and left.

Li Zhiyan closed the door, unable to forget Xu Xuanxuan’s appearance. In this era of thin, pale, and small figures, this “coconut tree type” beauty truly had a unique charm.

Xu Xuanxuan had delivered dinner, and Li Zhiyan sat down to taste it.

It indeed tasted very good.

Afterward, he filled in his car purchase intention on a car app.

Within five minutes, a Ferrari salesperson called.

“Hello, sir, do you have an intention to purchase a Ferrari?”
