42: No big or small

Li Zhiyan also wrapped his arms around Wu Yuexian's back; they hadn't seen each other for such a long time.

In his heart, he truly missed Wu Yuexian very much.

However, his past self had been a bit slow and hadn't thought about so many things.

After a while, Wu Yuexian realized that Li Zhiyan had truly grown up completely.

Her pretty face flushed slightly red.

This Hanhan, why is he so impudent...

However, one couldn't blame Li Zhiyan; after all, the two of them were no longer the children they were when they were young.

After letting go of Li Zhiyan, Wu Yuexian still maintained the air of an older sister.

"However, Babe, I'm really happy that you could come over this time."

"In the past, you wouldn't have just come here for me, traveling nearly five hundred kilometers just like that."

"Back when I was in university in Sichuan and Chongqing, you never went there to visit me."

Li Zhiyan recalled his past self; he really hadn't gone to Sichuan and Chongqing because he thought it was too far.

But Wu Yuexian would always come to find him whenever she was free.

"Things are different now than they were before; from now on, you will be in my life..."

"...the most important person."

"In the future, no matter what happens to Li Yuexian, Li Zhiyan will fly over."

In Li Zhiyan's concept, there were a few most important people.

Without a doubt, Wu Yuexian was one of them.

"Alright..."

"You little rascal, it's Wu Yuexian."

She gave Li Zhiyan's face a firm rub.

Wu Yuexian was naturally an emotional person.

She felt that if Li Zhiyan continued talking, she would cry.

She had to maintain her air as the older sister.

"Let's sleep first. Since you came to Wan City to celebrate my birthday this time, I've prepared a surprise for you, Babe."

She stroked Li Zhiyan's face.

Wu Yuexian acted as if she were treating a child.

She hadn't gone to wipe that Mercedes-Benz C-Class in the underground garage today; with Li Zhiyan here, she couldn't let the secret slip.

"I also prepared a surprise for you."

"Do you want to know?"

Wu Yuexian covered Li Zhiyan's mouth.

"You don't need to know anything; just keep the surprise hidden and don't let me know."

"I'm going to sleep now."

Saying this, Wu Yuexian returned to her bedroom.

In her heart, she kept thinking about how Li Zhiyan was being so impudent.

It was truly terrifying...

When she and Li Zhiyan were young, what had she ever seen? How could he suddenly become so terrifying?

If...

She really dared not think about it, she dared not think about it.

...

In her room, Wu Yuexian was tossing and turning.

Under the moonlight, a pair of slender, fair, and beautiful legs revealed a surprisingly stunning beauty.

"Xiao Yan, he won't sleep poorly outside, will he?"

"That sofa is so narrow, will he be able to sleep?"

"Besides, the air conditioning in the living room doesn't cool very well; Xiaoyun and I usually don't stay in the living room."

In Wu Yuexian's heart...

She was still very worried about Li Zhiyan.

Since he was small, she had never been able to bear seeing Li Zhiyan suffer even the slightest grievance.

Perhaps it was because she had no relatives when she was very small, and Li Zhiyan was the only peer around her age.

That was why she doted on Li Zhiyan so much, and she would always try her best to fulfill his childhood wishes.

Thinking that Li Zhiyan might not be sleeping well, Wu Yuexian tossed and turned.

...

Lying on the sofa, looking at the ceiling.

After a long time, Li Zhiyan felt a bit hot.

The air conditioner was set to 23 degrees, but Li Zhiyan felt like it was 27 degrees.

"Is this air conditioner's cooling not working very well?"

This apartment was about seventy square meters; although it was an elevator building, one could tell at a glance that it was an old residential complex that had been around for many years.

Opening his phone, Li Zhiyan took another look at WeChat.

Ji Zhiting had sent Li Zhiyan quite a few messages.

There were many self-portraits of her.

The most unexpected thing for Li Zhiyan was that Ji Mengting had also sent him a message.

Ji Mengting: "You opened a milk tea shop?"

"Milk tea shops are hard to run right now; the franchisors take too big of a cut, so there's basically not much profit."

"And you rented such a large storefront; you're going to lose money."

"If you can, you should transfer it to someone else as soon as possible."

After looking at his ex-wife's WeChat message, Li Zhiyan did not reply.

Since they were divorced, he didn't want to get entangled with Ji Mengting anymore.

Let the past be the past.

Just as Li Zhiyan was trying to sleep again, a message from Zhao Manman came through.

"Xiao Yan, are you there?"

Li Zhiyan saw that Zhao Manman had sent him a message.

He replied to her.

Now, Zhao Manman would chat with him every few days, which made Li Zhiyan feel that their mother-son bond had grown a little closer.

Li Zhiyan: "Mom, go ahead."

Zhao Manman: "I'm already arranging the matters on hand; I went to the beauty salon today to hand things over."

In the villa in Zhejiang, Zhao Manman was currently guarding the empty villa, watching a boring TV drama.

The boring lines playing made her feel even more bored.

But fortunately, she now had her son to talk to.

Li Zhiyan: "That's great, Mom; you can finally have a good rest."

Zhao Manman: "Perhaps. I will arrange the things on hand as soon as possible and have a good relaxation."

"When the time comes, I'll come to visit you."

"Will you be very busy?"

Zhao Manman was asking about Li Zhiyan's schedule.

Looking at the message, Li Zhiyan knew that he should accompany Zhao Manman well.

He didn't have a job right now, so he should still show filial piety to his elders.

"I'm not busy, Mom; if you come to visit me, I'll be very happy."

I updated once in the afternoon, and this is the only update for the night; I will add more updates tomorrow during the day if I have time.
