62: To take you anywhere,

Chapter 62: Anywhere is on the way if it's to see you off.

Li Zhiyan held Wu Yuexian.

"It's nothing..."

"It's just a little bruised, it'll be fine soon, don't worry."

Wu Yuexian kept wiping Li Zhiyan's wound.

Her heart ached terribly...

Although she had hit Li Zhiyan many times before, she had never used much force.

This time, it seemed she had really pinched him hard.

"You little rascal... why did you kiss me? We grew up together, Babe."

"You can't kiss me again in the future, otherwise, I really won't talk to you."

"Did you hear me, Babe?"

Seeing Wu Yuexian's pained yet serious expression.

Li Zhiyan realized...

Things were definitely not as simple as he had imagined.

In her heart, she had never thought of him as a man.

If he did something like that again, Wu Yuexian would really turn on him.

However, Li Zhiyan didn't agree.

He still needed to slowly find an opportunity.

"Actually... I think we could be together too."

"Before, I never thought so much."

"But now I'm divorced, and you haven't dated anyone for so many years."

"You're not on our household register; your surname is Wu, and mine is Li."

"There's absolutely no problem with us being together."

Listening to Li Zhiyan's words, Wu Yuexian couldn't help but want to pinch Li Zhiyan again.

However, looking at Li Zhiyan's bruised waist, she didn't lay a hand on him.

"How is that possible..."

"Do you know how much pressure we'd face if we really got together?"

"Your dad, being such a proper person, would probably disown you."

"And Babe, I've always seen you as a younger brother."

"I find it unacceptable for you to act this way."

"We're destined to be siblings in this life..."

Saying that, Wu Yuexian gently stroked Li Zhiyan's head.

At this moment, Li Zhiyan's eyes dimmed slightly.

He truly liked Wu Yuexian, but he had oversimplified the problem.

Feeling Li Zhiyan's disappointment...

Wu Yuexian also felt a pang of heartache, but such a wrong thing shouldn't continue.

It should end early; she needed to be decisive to prevent things from developing in the wrong direction.

"Good boy, good boy, my little one."

"Sister will give you a hug."

She stroked Li Zhiyan's head, letting him lean into her embrace.

Li Zhiyan slowly grew sleepy, and lying in Wu Yuexian's arms, he gradually fell asleep.

...

The next day, the sales agent processed the property deed.

Wu Yuexian now owned a large flat in Wan City.

Li Zhiyan and Wu Yuexian together sent Liu Xiaoyun back to her rented apartment; she was very happy to have an entire apartment to herself.

Afterward, the two of them loaded Wu Yuexian's and Zhao Manman's belongings into the car.

The Mercedes-Benz C-Class and the G-Wagen drove back to Rose Garden together.

For the next few days, Li Zhiyan spent his time accompanying Zhao Manman on outings and helping her relax.

And he was much more disciplined towards Wu Yuexian.

There were no more of the previous attempts at probing, this sudden change.

Made Wu Yuexian feel a strange sense of loss, but she thought, this is good too, at least things aren't developing in the wrong direction anymore.

...

In the evening, Li Zhiyan decided to return to Magic City.

"Sister, I'm going back."

Hearing that Li Zhiyan was leaving, Wu Yuexian's heart was filled with reluctance.

"You're leaving."

These past few days were the happiest Wu Yuexian had ever been.

Li Zhiyan had undergone a drastic change from before.

And every day after work, he would accompany her to play.

"Yes, I have to go back. There are still many things to attend to there after all."

Zhiyan Investment Company now had some business.

Li Zhiyan also wanted to go and see, after all, being able to make money was a good thing.

And he still had to continue looking for other information that could generate wealth in the past.

"Have you bought your ticket?"

Li Zhiyan looked at the lake view outside.

"Not yet. I'll buy it at the high-speed rail station. Anyway, there are plenty of trains at the high-speed rail station now."

Zhao Manman also chimed in, "I also need to go back to Zhejiang. I can't leave my business for too long."

Although Wu Yuexian was very reluctant, she knew that this time she couldn't stay with Li Zhiyan for too long.

"Then, I'll see you off."

...

The G-Wagen stopped at the high-speed rail station.

Zhao Manman got out of the car and went to the trunk to get her suitcase.

Li Zhiyan, meanwhile, came to Wu Yuexian's side and hugged her.

Feeling Wu Yuexian's figure, Li Zhiyan's reaction was also very natural.

This made Wu Yuexian's pretty face flush. This boy...

However, this was just a farewell hug; she couldn't think too much.

"Alright, alright, Babe, go back."

"Live well in Magic City, and if anything happens, you must report it to me immediately, understand?"

Li Zhiyan gently kissed Wu Yuexian on the cheek.

"I know, Sister..."

"However, you need to seriously consider what I said."

"I'm actually not very at ease with you being alone in Wan City."

"I want to see you often."

Wu Yuexian patted Li Zhiyan's back.

"Alright, Babe."

"Don't think so much."

"I will seriously consider it."

"If I find the work here unpleasant."

"I will definitely come find you."

Saying that, Wu Yuexian lightly kissed Li Zhiyan on the cheek.

She quickly pulled away, afraid that what happened before would repeat itself.

If she hadn't been calm that day, she couldn't even imagine what would have happened next.

"Then, you go back first, Sister."

Wu Yuexian pinched Li Zhiyan's face and drove away.

She didn't dare to stay there any longer; she was afraid that if she stayed a moment longer, she would truly be unable to bear Li Zhiyan leaving.

After Wu Yuexian left, Li Zhiyan took the suitcase from Zhao Manman's hand.

"Mom, have you bought your train ticket?"

"Not yet."

Zhao Manman always felt that the relationship between Li Zhiyan and Wu Yuexian was not quite right.

If they really had something going on, then Meng Ting's remarriage would be completely out of the question.

"Give me your ID, and I'll buy two tickets for you."

Zhao Manman took her ID card from her bag and handed it to Li Zhiyan.

"Mom, I'll go back with you."

Zhao Manman smiled gently, her demeanor still so dignified and noble.

"Xiao Yan, you're going to Magic City, and I'm going to Zhejiang. That's not on the way."

Li Zhiyan, however, replied, "To see you off, anywhere is on the way. You're so beautiful."

"If you encounter any trouble on the road, it would worry people too much. I have to see you back before I can rest assured."

On the app, he bought two tickets to Zhejiang.

"That's too much trouble, Xiao Yan. You can go straight back to Magic City."

Li Zhiyan gently took Zhao Manman's hand.

"Mom, just let me see you off. Otherwise, I really won't be at ease and will keep worrying about you."

Zhao Manman's heart ached slightly...

She was very touched.

Li Zhiyan truly cared about her.
