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

Li Zhiyan's words and actions made Gu Wanzhou's heart flutter, and her face grew even hotter.

She felt rather helpless in her heart.

Initially, it was clearly agreed with Li Zhiyan that as long as she acted as his secretary,

there would be no romantic involvement between them.

But now, Li Zhiyan obviously hadn't kept to the agreement, always kissing her, even having her feed him, doing many over-the-top things.

"Xiao Yan..."

"Aunt Gu, please, I'm hungry."

Gu Wanzhou sighed.

"Alright."

...

As evening approached, Gu Wanzhou rubbed her wrists, watching Li Zhiyan drive away from downstairs, her heart grew immensely complicated.

Now her daughter truly had feelings for Li Zhiyan, but Li Zhiyan did not have any affection for her daughter; his heart only thought of being with her.

Thinking about it, Gu Wanzhou couldn't help feeling a wave of helplessness.

"What should I and Xiao Yan do, should I consider giving him a chance, but there's Sisi..."

Thinking of how Yu Sisi had recently been so close with her, following her everywhere.

Her heart ached a bit; she couldn't bear to see her daughter sad.

This was a thought common to all mothers.

Then, she dialed Yu Sisi's phone, intending to have a serious talk with her.

Soon enough, Yu Sisi's voice came through.

"Hello, Mom."

"Sisi, I want to apologize for today's incident."

If it were before, Yu Sisi felt she might have lost control of her temper and scolded Gu Wanzhou, but now, she had calmed down, knowing it would be of no help, and that her mother had raised her, so she shouldn't scold her mother over these things.

"Mom, this isn't your fault, it's just that Li Zhiyan likes you."

"It's not your mistake, after all, who he likes is his right."

Yu Sisi's words truly surprised Gu Wanzhou; she couldn't believe such words were spoken by her own daughter.

"Sisi..."

"However, Mom, I will compete with you fairly, no matter what, I'm not giving up on Li Zhiyan, I want to marry him, to be with him."

At the same time, Yu Sisi was very clear that she had to use the weapon of familial love appropriately; this would create significant psychological pressure on her mother.

With this in mind, she would weigh carefully each time she wanted to be with Li Zhiyan.

...

Once back at home, Li Zhiyan was in a great mood; he knew.

The person now who was the most difficult to win over was undoubtedly Aunt Gu.

Gu Wanzhou and he had too many barriers between them, especially now that Yu Sisi had evolved.

However, as long as he maintained the intimate status with Aunt Gu, she wouldn't be able to step out from such closeness with him.

"Never mind, no need to rush, better to think about the affairs of the Little New Year's Day the day after tomorrow."

Li Zhiyan knew that he and his supervisor had already been through many things and had basically done it all; it was just lacking a final step of emotional progress.

So this was a perfect opportunity.

He had to seize it, remembering how in his past life, when he was most helpless and sad, the sister-like Han Xueying often came to find him, to console him; Li Zhiyan's heart was immensely firm.

He would ensure Aunt Han's happiness no matter what.

After returning home, as always, Zhou Rongrong had already prepared dinner waiting for him.

Watching Li Zhiyan walk towards the dining table, Zhou Rongrong hurriedly went into the kitchen, and Ding Baijie was also bustling about beside her.

Now with an additional person in the house, the atmosphere had clearly warmed up a bit; Li Zhiyan felt this was not bad, and his mother had someone to keep her company usually.

The three of them finished dinner together, and Zhou Rongrong still said as if dreaming, "Son, did we really buy a forty-million villa?"

"Mom feels like she's dreaming and hasn't woken up yet."

Li Zhiyan smiled and said, "Of course it's real, Mom. The renovation issue will be resolved quickly. After school starts and the weather isn't so cold, we'll move in, and afterward, you can just tend your flowers and plants in the villa."

Zhou Rongrong couldn't help but dream.

"But such a big villa must be hard to clean, right?"

"Don't worry about that, Mom. The housekeeping, chef, and security and such will be completely provided."

"A chef isn't necessary; I like cooking for you."

"Right, Mom, then let's not have a chef."

Chatting away, Li Zhiyan's heart once again thought of Yin Xueyang, who now really seemed a bit pitiable. As a mother, she was truly a very good one, just like his own mother, who, although had the means, insisted on cooking herself to ensure her son ate well.

I'll visit him tomorrow, Li Zhiyan was quite determined in his heart.

At that moment, the System issued a new task.

"New task announcement."

"Purchase a Mercedes Benz S."

"Please go to Zheng Yiyun's Mercedes Benz 4S store to buy a top-of-the-line Mercedes Benz S-Class worth 1.4 million."

"Task reward: full cashback and a bonus of two million in cash."

The sudden task really caught Li Zhiyan by surprise; another car buying task, he already had enough cars.

But, after all, it was full cashback, and there was a two million bonus to collect, he definitely had to go.
