52: Meet again in Wancheng

Chapter 52: Reunited in Wan City

Li Zhiyan was well aware of Wu Yuexian's frugality.

All of her clothes were bought on Pinduoduo.

Yet, only Wu Yuexian could make those low-quality clothes look high-end and mature.

Zhao Manman's reply was very quick.

Zhao Manman: "It's so hot today, aren't you afraid of sweating?"

"(Smiling) (Emoji)."

Li Zhiyan: "Even though it's hot, I don't mind picking you up at all."

"After all, you are a very important person to me."

"Besides, once you arrive, I'll drive to pick you up, and with the air conditioning, it won't be hot at all."

Zhao Manman: "You have a car in Wan City too?"

Li Zhiyan: "Sort of."

Zhao Manman: "Alright, I'll text you when I'm almost in Wan City."

"This time, you need to show Mom a good time."

"I've been feeling really down lately."

By then, Zhao Manman had already packed her luggage and was ready to depart.

The weather was hot, but Zhao Manman's mood had improved significantly.

She realized that her mother-son bond with Li Zhiyan had indeed deepened a lot.

Now, there were many things she wanted to tell Li Zhiyan.

Perhaps in the past, she had been too concerned with maintaining the dignity of an elder.

That's why there had been so much distance between them.

Li Zhiyan: "Then please come."

Zhao Manman sent another smiling emoji.

As she was about to leave, Ji Yunhai's car pulled up outside the villa.

Zhao Manman hadn't expected Ji Yunhai, who hadn't shown up for so many days, to appear today.

"You're going out?"

Upon returning, Ji Yunhai's first question was about Zhao Manman's departure.

"Yes, Xiao Yan is in Wan City now, I'm going to visit him."

Hearing that she was going to see Li Zhiyan, Ji Yunhai didn't pay much attention.

After all, there was a lot of affection to be cultivated between a mother and son.

Her departure was convenient; it made it much easier for him to secretly handle his affairs...

Many things would be much simpler this way.

He was planning to transfer assets, and her absence made it more convenient.

"Are you going to drive me?"

Ji Yunhai shook his head.

"I'm sorry, I have a lot of things to do."

"You know that a new company is usually the busiest when it first opens; you should understand that, right?"

"So you should go by yourself. When I have free time, I'll spend more time with you."

Ji Yunhai lied without batting an eyelid.

For Ji Yun, he felt no psychological pressure whatsoever.

"Then I'll drive myself."

Zhao Manman felt a little disappointed. Her familial affection for Ji Yunhai was certainly there.

However, Ji Yunhai's behavior truly made her feel very disappointed.

After putting her luggage in the trunk, Zhao Manman didn't look back at Ji Yunhai.

...

Upon reaching the high-speed rail station, Zhao Manman found a cheaper paid parking spot nearby.

After parking under the camera.

She changed into her Valentino.

This was her habit. Pulling her suitcase, she felt inexplicably lighter.

She didn't know why...

This place now gave her a feeling of oppression.

...

At noon, after Li Zhiyan had a quick lunch.

He called Wu Yuexian.

"Sis, why didn't you drive the G-Class to work today?"

Wu Yuexian: "Are you silly? If I, an intern, drove a G-Class, wouldn't I be secretly cursed by others?"

"The Mercedes-Benz C-Class is already very good..."

"Besides, if the G-Class accumulates high mileage, it can depreciate by hundreds of thousands of yuan easily. The car depreciates a lot the moment it's driven out of the dealership."

"It's best to drive it less, I know."

"Babe is a genius; he can afford a Mercedes-Benz G-Class at such a young age, but you must be prepared for danger in times of peace, understand?"

"In the future, all my money will be saved for you. You must not waste money."

Li Zhiyan: "I know, Wu Yuexian. I was a bit sleepy last night."

"So I forgot to ask you, do you want to come back to Modu with me?"

"That way, we can always be together, and I won't miss you so much."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

"Babe, let's just forget about this for now."

"The expenses in Modu are simply too high. If I go there, I basically won't be able to save any money."

"I need to save more money for you, Babe. The current economic situation is really not good. If I don't save more money for you, I won't be at ease."

Li Zhiyan knew that he really couldn't persuade Wu Yuexian. This matter would have to be considered in the long run.

However, no matter what, he had to keep Wu Yuexian by his side forever.

...

Around two o'clock.

Li Zhiyan, sitting in the G-Class, called Zhao Manman.

"Mom, are you almost here?"

Zhao Manman's pleasant voice quickly responded.

"I'm here."

"Xiao Yan, I'm on the train now, and the scenery outside is nice."

Looking at the scenery outside...

Zhao Manman realized that she hadn't been out to play for many years; she seemed to have been cut off from these mountains, rivers, and plants.

"Listening to your voice, you do sound very relaxed."

"It's been a long time since I've felt you in this state."

Zhao Manman hummed in acknowledgment.

"It'll be about half an hour more, then we'll be in Wan City, at the station."

"Not much further to go."

Li Zhiyan started the car.

"Then I'll set off now. I'll be waiting for you at the entrance when you arrive at the station."

Zhao Manman instructed: "Okay, Xiao Yan, be careful on the road, drive slowly, and pay attention to safety."

Upon arriving at the high-speed rail station.

There were exactly five minutes until the bullet train arrived.

"Perfect, the visibility from this G-Class is indeed high, no wonder so many people like this car."

"It feels different from driving a supercar or a sedan."

Of course, Li Zhiyan still preferred the 488 more.

He parked the car by the roadside, walked a short distance, and arrived at the high-speed rail station exit, waiting for Zhao Manman to emerge.

Along with the voice broadcast inside the high-speed rail station.

Li Zhiyan's heart began to fill with anticipation.

Soon, Zhao Manman walked out.

Today, she was wearing a black skirt suit, the skirt covering half of her thighs.

And on her legs were still black stockings paired with the very classic Valentino.

These Valentinos truly couldn't be pulled off without height, elegance, and a good figure.

But for Zhao Manman, it was an effortless feat.

Many passengers nearby secretly observed Zhao Manman, but faced with such a goddess.

No one dared to approach her.

"Mom!"

Li Zhiyan waved at Zhao Manman.

Then he walked towards Zhao Manman.

"Xiao Yan."

Upon seeing Li Zhiyan, the unhappiness she felt at home.

Seemed to dissipate. Seeing her child always made her feel so good.

Li Zhiyan stepped forward and took Zhao Manman's hand.

"Long time no see, you're finally here. Let's go, it's hot here, let's get in the car first."
