Reborn: Instead of Chasing the School Beauty, I Chased Her Mother

Lately, they had been trying to catch Qi Lei, but to no avail. Today, someone tipped them off about the criminal's whereabouts.

And sure enough, it was him!

After the three of them went to the police station to give statements, Qi Lei was detained on the spot.

After Li Zhiyan and Gu Wanzhou finished giving their statements and understood the whole story, they left the police station.

"Young man, thank you for this."

After leaving the police station, the grateful old policeman said, "This man has committed quite a few crimes recently, and even stabbed someone. The victim is still in the hospital. I think the victim's family will be very grateful to you."

"However, young man, even though you've got some skill in fighting, next time you encounter such a situation, you should still call the police first. Don't take risks alone. If your fighting skills weren't strong, tonight you and your aunt would have really been in danger."

Li Zhiyan nodded repeatedly in agreement with the old policeman's advice.

Not long after the two of them had walked out of the police station, Li Zhiyan took Gu Wanzhou's hand.

Gu Wanzhou visibly resisted, which Li Zhiyan knew was because of Yu Sisi's previous confession to him.

So in Gu Wanzhou's heart, there were too many scruples.

However, Gu Wanzhou only resisted for a moment before interlocking her fingers tightly with Li Zhiyan's and holding his hand tightly.

"Aunt Gu, you're crying."

As they walked, Li Zhiyan noticed something was off with Gu Wanzhou; her eyes were red.

Tears shimmered in her beautiful eyes.

Hearing Li Zhiyan say that, Gu Wanzhou could no longer contain her fear and hugged him tightly.

"Goodness, you really scared Auntie to death."

"If something had happened to you just now, Auntie wouldn't want to live either."

In Aunt Gu's heart.

In her heart, Li Zhiyan was extremely important, so she was truly terrified just now.

"Aunt Gu, it's all over now."

Li Zhiyan wrapped his arms around Gu Wanzhou's waist, smelling the fragrance of Aunt Gu, and hugged her closely, feeling a profound sense of fulfillment.

This embrace felt somewhat distant from him, and all because of Yu Sisi.

"Goodness..."

Although Li Zhiyan was soothing Gu Wanzhou's emotions.

Gu Wanzhou kept crying, obviously frightened.

Feeling Gu Wanzhou's continuous trembling as she held him, Li Zhiyan also slowly closed his eyes, softly comforting Gu Wanzhou.

Hoping Aunt Gu would calm down soon.

"Alright, Aunt Gu, it's all passed now."

Over half an hour later, Gu Wanzhou's emotions finally calmed down.

After all, a woman is a woman, and at such times, it's impossible for her heart to remain calm.

"Goodness, how did you happen to be here?"

Holding Li Zhiyan's hand.

Gu Wanzhou asked softly.

"I came to see you because you've been avoiding me."

"Aunt Gu, you're still my girlfriend, but far from dutiful."

"I missed you, so I came over here to have a look."

"But I didn't expect to find you here, involved in such an incident."

Gu Wanzhou hummed in response, her heart also filled with immense guilt.

She seemed indeed to have let Li Zhiyan down. If her daughter hadn't confessed to Li Zhiyan, where would she and Li Zhiyan be now?

Perhaps...

Gu Wanzhou didn't dare to imagine any further.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Yan..."

"It's okay, but I think you should change your thinking a bit."

"I believe we really have a destiny together; from the first time I met you, I felt this way."

"Don't you think there indeed is some kind of magical fate between us?"

Gu Wanzhou fell silent for a while, although it sounded a bit metaphysical and superstitious.

But the connection between her and Li Zhiyan really seemed that way.

Every time she was in danger, Li Zhiyan would appear at the right moment to save her...

And moreover, it seemed like they could meet each other anywhere.

"I'm sorry, Goodness, Auntie has indeed been neglecting you these days."

Li Zhiyan took Gu Wanzhou's delicate hand and walked forward.

"I don't think you've been neglecting me, on the contrary, you've always had me in your heart."

Li Zhiyan's words made Gu Wanzhou feel a bit uncomfortable.

Her heart was more than just having Li Zhiyan in it.

She thought of him every day, even to the point of distraction at work.

Li Zhiyan had a truly special and irreplaceable place in her heart.

"Actually, in your heart, you've already fallen for me, haven't you?"

Gu Wanzhou's face uncontrollably reddened, her innermost feelings exposed by a youngster, making her feel extremely shy.

"Don't talk nonsense."

"I am not talking nonsense, Aunt Gu. I think you are worried about Yu Sisi's confession to me, and if you got close to me, you wouldn't know how to face your own daughter."

"That's why you've been deliberately keeping your distance and avoiding me, right?"

"But I think life is short and you shouldn't let various concerns negate what's in your heart."

"Aunt Gu, you are an extremely strong woman in work and life, but in terms of feelings, I really don't think she's you."

Li Zhiyan continued, knowing he couldn't persuade Gu Wanzhou in one go.

After all, facing the fact of competing with her own daughter for a man was indeed difficult for Gu Wanzhou to accept. However, having opened up about it, Gu Wanzhou's heart would gradually change over time.
