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

So, for the tasks that Li Zhiyan entrusted, Wang Sicong can be said to be doing his utmost.

"Hmm, go ahead."

After hanging up the phone, Li Zhiyan glanced at his balance.

After completing the task, his balance has successfully reached 220 million.

"The speed of making money is really getting faster and faster."

"However, the main task of the System is to develop and expand the Chamber of Commerce."

"This is probably to give me more ability to protect myself."

Li Zhiyan now roughly understands how to use the System to continuously develop himself.

In his mind, he's already planning about Li Fuzhen.

If Li Fuzhen joins the Yiyan Chamber of Commerce.

It will definitely bring substantial task rewards to himself.

While Li Zhiyan was pondering.

The System issued a new task.

"New task issued."

"After Zheng Yiyun's casual fine dining restaurant opened, business was dismal."

"So bankruptcy is already foreseeable."

"Funds have bottomed out, and Zheng Yiyun is borrowing money everywhere, but to no avail."

"Lend Zheng Yiyun one million and become her creditor."

"Task reward, six million in cash."

This task means Li Zhiyan can earn five million.

Of course, Li Zhiyan does not expect Zheng Yiyun to repay the money.

He knows very well what Zheng Yiyun is capable of—this woman is quite materialistic.

But she herself does not have the ability to make money; lending her a million to continue investing is practically throwing money away.

However, Li Zhiyan didn't mind; he quite enjoys the creditor storyline.

Of course, the usual creditor is when the male protagonist has taken out high-interest loans.

Then the creditor comes to collect the debt.

In the end.

"Madam, I beg you..."

For now, let Zheng Yiyun owe as much as possible, so this woman will have to work for him all her life.

While Li Zhiyan was thinking about his plan.

Zhou Rongrong walked over from behind.

"Xiao Yan."

"Mom."

Holding Zhou Rongrong's hand, the mother and son watched the distant lake view together.

A gentle breeze blew, and under the illumination of the streetlamps, the lake water rippled slightly.

It looked warm and comforting.

"Mom, I know you're scared, but it's all over; don't worry, these things won't happen again."

Holding Li Zhiyan's hand, Zhou Rongrong said: "Xiao Yan."

"Mom hopes you will be safe and sound, compared to this, nothing else matters."

"If you ever find things unbearable, mom can leave here with you anytime."

"We can go anywhere, away from these bad people."

"I know, mom, rest assured."

"I definitely won't let anything happen."

"The wind is strong up here, let's go back."

Li Zhiyan reassured Zhou Rongrong.

Zhou Rongrong responded with a hum.

"Mom, I want to have a good talk with you."

"Okay..."

Looking at Li Zhiyan like a child, Zhou Rongrong's maternal instincts overflowed.

Actually, Xiao Yan hasn't been grown up for very long...

When they arrived at Li Zhiyan's room, Li Zhiyan jumped onto the bed.

While Zhou Rongrong sat beside him.

Resting his head on his mom's shoulder, Li Zhiyan and Zhou Rongrong started chatting.

"Mom, are you cold?"

"Not cold."

"Let me tuck you in."

After covering Zhou Rongrong's legs.

The mother and son continued talking, after a while, Li Zhiyan started playing with Zhou Rongrong's phone.

His mom's phone password has always been his birthday.

Including her bank card password.

This has never changed, after a while, Li Zhiyan noticed there was a new contact on Zhou Rongrong's WeChat named Auntie.

"Mom, who is this Auntie? I've never seen her before."

"This Auntie's name is Zhou Feifei."

Zhou Rongrong casually mentioned.

Then continued to chat with Li Zhiyan about some of his childhood stories.

Listening to this, Li Zhiyan felt very warmed inside.

These childhood stories are his most precious memories.

In his previous life, his mom left him too early.

In this life, he can savor them well.

At some unknown point, Li Zhiyan fell asleep.

The face fill with doting, Zhou Rongrong tucked him in.

No matter the time.

A son is always a child in a mother's eyes.

In Zhou Rongrong's heart, this has never changed.

"Son..."

"I hope you will always be well; without you, mom really wouldn't have the courage to live."

Zhou Rongrong recalled the day her husband passed away.

What kind of heart-wrenching pain it was.

If not for the child within her.

She would have followed him.

Over the years, Li Zhiyan has long since healed her internal wounds.

This kind of pain, Zhou Rongrong never wants to experience it again.

She never wants to return to those days.

...

The next day, after waking up.

Li Zhiyan thought about the afternoon task.

Right now, Zheng Yiyun is in dire need of money, so he can be a timely help.

After washing up and tidying himself, he went downstairs.

Ding Baijie has already gone to class.

Zhou Rongrong has prepared breakfast and is waiting for Li Zhiyan on the sofa.

"Son, come eat."

When Li Zhiyan came over, Zhou Rongrong said gently.

"Mom, you made so many dishes, all my favorites."

"As long as you're around, mom will make delicious food for you every day."

After what happened last night.

Zhou Rongrong's heart came to terms with many things.

Right now, danger could appear at any time.

So she has to treat her son even better.
