70: I can't help but hug【4】

Chapter 70 An Involuntary Hug [4]

If Li Zhiyan hadn't come, perhaps Zhou Mengmeng's entire eight-day holiday would have passed just like that.

However, upon hearing Li Zhiyan's voice, the feeling of grievance in Zhou Mengmeng's heart became completely uncontrollable.

For a moment, she was somewhat speechless.

“Mengmeng, I know you’re there.”

“Hurry up and get ready, we’re going to Suzhou to play.”

Zhou Mengmeng's heart couldn't help but fill with some fantasies.

“Then…you wait for me, I’ll get dressed.”

Leaving her bed, Zhou Mengmeng looked at the clothes on the simple hanger and picked up the plain, tightly wrapped clothes she usually wore.

But Zhou Mengmeng quickly remembered that Li Zhiyan seemed to prefer clothes that showed her legs.

He really liked those particularly fair, beautiful legs.

“Since I’m going out with him, I should dress nicely.”

When she confessed to Li Zhiyan before, she had also worn clothes that showed her legs.

He seemed to like it a lot.

After changing into a pleated skirt, Zhou Mengmeng chose a white T-shirt.

Her C+ bust looked very prominent.

Then, after washing up, she skillfully tied her hair into a ponytail.

After thinking for a moment, she also brought her makeup.

There was definitely no time for makeup today, but she would have to make time for it later, because Li Zhiyan liked her with light makeup.

About ten minutes later, the dorm room door opened.

Li Zhiyan saw Zhou Mengmeng’s face, which was already fair and flawless, and her signature twin ponytails.

Every time he saw them, Li Zhiyan would want to test if the twin ponytails were sturdy enough.

And her outfit today was also very much to Li Zhiyan's liking.

“Long time no see, have you missed me?”

Upon hearing Li Zhiyan’s words, Zhou Mengmeng couldn't help but spontaneously embrace Li Zhiyan.

“I did…”

“But you’re too naughty.”

Li Zhiyan gently tugged on Zhou Mengmeng’s twin ponytails.

“Alright, let’s go.”

Zhou Mengmeng didn't forget to lock the door when she left.

After the two left the dormitory building, she saw Ji Zhiting waiting by the car.

“Mengmeng, you’re finally here!”

“If you weren’t here this holiday, I’d really be bored.”

Zhou Mengmeng didn't have social anxiety symptoms with the few people in her dorm.

The two chatted, and Ji Zhiting pulled Zhou Mengmeng into the car.

Li Zhiyan also sat in the back seat, making the three of them feel a bit crowded.

However, no one mentioned the issue.

Opening the app, Li Zhiyan checked the high-speed rail tickets to Suzhou.

There were still quite a few tickets.

“Mengmeng, read out your ID number.”

“I’ll buy the tickets, lest there are no tickets later.”

He knew Ji Zhiting’s ID number, but he still had to ask for Zhou Mengmeng’s.

3416…2005…

Li Zhiyan felt a bit emotional; these post-2005 individuals were truly young, their birth dates even made him envious.

“Alright, the tickets are bought. You two chat; I’ll ask Mom if she bought her ticket.”

This trip to Suzhou, Li Zhiyan and Ji Zhiting had arranged to meet Zhao Manman, so it was natural to ask.

Li Zhiyan directly made a video call to Zhao Manman.

Zhou Mengmeng instinctively dodged the camera, afraid it would capture her.

“Mom.”

“Have you bought your high-speed rail ticket?”

“We’ll arrive in Suzhou around eleven-something.”

Then, Li Zhiyan pointed the camera at Ji Zhiting.

Ji Zhiting also enthusiastically greeted Zhao Manman.

“Mom! Love you.”

Looking at Ji Zhiting’s bright smile, Zhao Manman felt her entire mood lighten completely.

Ji Zhiting was truly a child who could instantly improve her mood.

And Li Zhiyan too… Even though she had no relation to him now, he still treated her like a mother.

Thinking of spending the holiday with these two children, the gloom in her heart was swept away.

Ji Yunhai’s matter was also cast to the back of her mind.

“Xiao Ting, who is that girl next to you?”

Ji Zhiting introduced, “Mom, this is my roommate, her name is Zhou Mengmeng, and she’s joining us for the holiday.”

Zhou Mengmeng shyly greeted, “Hello, Auntie.”

“Hello, Mengmeng, that’s good too, more people means more lively.”

Zhao Manman didn't mind the additional girl joining for this holiday.

When there were more people, she would forget that feeling of extreme loss.

“Xiao Yan, Mom is going to buy the ticket now. Let’s meet in Suzhou. This time in Suzhou, let’s have a good chat.”

Zhao Manman noticed that Li Zhiyan had been avoiding the topic of Ji Yunhai these past few days.

Whenever it concerned Ji Yunhai, he would always change the subject.

So this time, she wanted to have a thorough, in-depth conversation with Li Zhiyan to understand the exact situation.

“Okay… Mom, then you go buy the ticket first. Remember to bring a power bank; don’t let me be unable to find you.”

Li Zhiyan also knew that the matter could finally be resolved.

“Mm… Xiao Yan, let’s leave it at that for now.”

“I’m hanging up, child.”

After hanging up the phone, Li Zhiyan saw the message Wu Yuexian sent him.

Wu Yuexian: “Babe, I’m home.”

“Look, your room, haha, I cleaned it up so nicely for you. When you come back, it’ll be like a pigsty again.”

It was accompanied by a mocking emoji.

Li Zhiyan also chatted casually with Wu Yuexian.

“Mengmeng, when we get to Suzhou this time, we must have a good time. There are so many places I want to go.”

“We can take more group photos this time.”

Zhou Mengmeng, however, felt very inferior.

A rich girl like Ji Zhiting had excellent conditions since childhood.

And Li Zhiyan doted on her so much, even giving her a milk tea shop.

As for herself, spending even a little bit of money required careful calculation.

Fortunately, she had already found a part-time job at a yoga studio.

Working as a server there, her monthly income was decent.

Since they were all women, Zhou Mengmeng also felt less socially anxious.

In a while, she would be able to pay off the money she owed Li Zhiyan…

All the way to Suzhou, Zhou Mengmeng’s mind was filled with thoughts about Li Zhiyan.

“We’ve arrived.”

“Today we’ll first find a place to stay, and then go out to play in the evening.”

“During the day, there will probably be too many tourists.”

Suzhou’s classical gardens and Tai Lake always had many tourists.

Li Zhiyan had already imagined the crowded scenes during this nationwide holiday.

“Mm, Brother, let’s go find Mom first.”

Ji Zhiting took Li Zhiyan’s hand and walked towards the high-speed rail station exit.

At the same time, she made a video call to Zhao Manman.

Soon, Ji Zhiting saw Zhao Manman waving at her from a corner outside the high-speed rail station.

Today, she was still wearing those black stockings that seemed to be made just for her.

“Xiao Ting, over here.”

Wearing Valentino, Zhao Manman walked towards Li Zhiyan and the two girls.
