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

[Supplement in progress, this line of text will be deleted when it's complete]

Li Zhiyan smiled and said, "Aunt Yu, Zhou Tianhua is really disgusting."

"He's simply a beast."

"I find him particularly disgusting too."

Yu Hongmei also sensed something at this moment.

"Xiao Yan, has Zhou Tianhua done something recently?"

"Aunt Yu, indeed something has happened, are you free tomorrow? Let's go for a walk."

In fact, it could have been explained to Yu Hongmei over the phone.

However, Li Zhiyan truly wanted to meet with Yu Hongmei more often.

Such opportunities must be seized properly.

"Then, let's find some time tomorrow morning to have tea at a teahouse."

"I'll call you then, dear."

"Sure, Aunt Yu, we have a deal."

After they agreed to meet the next day, Yu Hongmei couldn't calm down for a long time.

Zhou Tianhua must have done something again.

That's why Li Zhiyan wants to meet with her. But thinking about it, she has a lot to deal with tomorrow, including securing investments.

Yu Hongmei forced herself to calm down and fell asleep peacefully.

Before falling asleep, she thought again of the time Li Zhiyan helped her find the camera hidden at home.

If it weren't for Li Zhiyan, her situation would have been truly dangerous.

She really owes this kid a lot of emotional debt.

...

Before going to sleep, Li Zhiyan once again looked at his 410 million deposit.

This number always excites him whenever he sees it.

"The next goal is to reach one billion."

"I wonder what it feels like to have one billion, or even ten billion, lying in the account?"

Li Zhiyan indulged in his imagination.

Moreover, he felt that once he reached a billion, the rewards for his tasks thereafter would increase crazily.

And, with the System backing him, he didn't need to worry about any problems from earning too much money, as the System would handle everything for him.

The next day, Li Zhiyan woke up, washed up, and went downstairs.

As usual, his mom had prepared breakfast for him.

After sitting down, Li Zhiyan asked, "Mom, have you seen Aunt Feifei?"

For Aunt Feifei, Li Zhiyan also felt quite concerned.

"No, I haven't."

Zhou Rongrong felt a bit helpless in her heart. This kid always thinks about Aunt Feifei.

She really had no way to deal with Li Zhiyan.

"Alright, if you and Aunt Feifei go out to play together."

"Please tell Aunt Feifei that I miss her."

"Last time the snacks she brought were very delicious."

"They reminded me of the taste of childhood. Next time, I want her to feed me again."

Although Zhou Rongrong felt a bit helpless,

she still agreed.

"Okay, mom got it, I'll tell her the next time I see her."

"But don't get your hopes up too much."

Li Zhiyan nodded. As long as his mom was willing to relay the message, that would be enough for him.

After breakfast, Li Zhiyan accompanied his mom to look at the scenery on the observation deck for a while.

Then he went to visit Li Fuzhen and brought her some snacks.

Li Fuzhen ate happily.

Li Zhiyan checked the task date.

He knew that Li Zairong was about to make a move on Li Fuzhen.

For Li Zhiyan, this was a good opportunity to complete tasks and make money.

Afterward, Li Zhiyan went to an internet cafe, waiting for Yu Hongmei's call.

Today, Wang Sicong was also there playing games.

He looked quite relaxed, and when Li Zhiyan sat over, his buddy passed him a can of iced cola.

"Xiao Wang, the company is doing well."

Wang Sicong had a slightly proud look on his face.

"Indeed, it's not bad, Brother Yan."

"What you told me was really useful."

"Thank you so much."

Li Zhiyan had once briefly talked to Wang Sicong about live streaming.

Now, Wang Sicong had joined the Yiyan Chamber of Commerce.

In a sense, he's truly one of his own.

There was no harm in chatting a bit more with him.

Although before being reborn, Li Zhiyan was just an ordinary person, he still had a forward-thinking perspective.

Just a brief chat with Wang Sicong could provide him with significant inspiration.

"By the way, Brother Yan, you're a major shareholder in Miliao."

"Competing head-on with WeChat, and the opponent is Pony Ma. Just thinking about it gets the blood pumping!"

"Has Pony Ma contacted you recently?"

It was unknown to the general public that Li Zhiyan was a major shareholder in Miliao, but Wang Sicong, with his information-gathering abilities, certainly knew the inside story.

Moreover, today Li Shiyu also discussed this matter with him.

"Brother Ma recently talked with Lei Jun, revealing his intention to acquire Mi Chat."

"As for what happens next, let's just see how things naturally develop."

After logging into the game, the three of them started running dungeons in Dungeon Fighter Online.

It wasn't until half-past eleven that Li Zhiyan received a call from Yu Hongmei.

Although it was very late, Li Zhiyan thought this was quite normal...

After all, Yu Hongmei was not an ordinary person; her schedule must be very tight.

It's practically impossible for an average person to meet her.

If she made time to see him, it was definitely deliberate.

After saying goodbye to his buddies and Xiao Wang, Li Zhiyan drove to the agreed location to meet Yu Hongmei.

At this time, Yu Hongmei was standing by the street wearing sunglasses, waiting for him.

Her shapely figure and noble demeanor made her easy to spot in a crowd at a glance.

Li Zhiyan felt even more resolute in his heart.

Under no circumstances should Yu Hongmei and Zhou Tianhua remarry. Someone like Zhou Tianhua, a brute, is completely unworthy of Yu Hongmei.

On this point, Li Zhiyan's resolve was firm.

"Auntie Yu, get in the car."

"Okay."

Yu Hongmei got into the passenger seat of Li Zhiyan's car, still wearing her sunglasses.

"Don't worry, Auntie Yu."

"My car is fully equipped with privacy films."

"You can't see inside from outside."

"You're absolutely safe."

Hearing Li Zhiyan say this...

It was only then that Yu Hongmei felt at ease and removed her sunglasses.

"Auntie Yu, let me take you to dinner."

"Let's find a private room."

With her sunglasses removed, Yu Hongmei revealed her extremely fair skin, and her delicate face made it hard for Li Zhiyan to look away.

"Alright, you make the arrangements."

Yu Hongmei now trusted Li Zhiyan greatly and genuinely held a high opinion of him.

Even though he had significant, perhaps irreconcilable, conflicts with Zhou Yunfei and his mother...

From Yu Hongmei's perspective, Li Zhiyan hadn't done anything wrong.

Li Jinfeng's behavior...

Honestly, it made her quite uncomfortable.

However, since they were family with deep-seated interests tangled together,

Yu Hongmei had always chosen to ignore her actions.

Whatever Li Jinfeng did, Yu Hongmei didn't care.

After bringing Yu Hongmei to a restaurant, Li Zhiyan requested a private dining room.

After ordering food, Li Zhiyan handed the menu to Yu Hongmei.

"Auntie Yu, order whatever you like."

"Just a tofu with scallions."

"And a spicy chicken."

"Just these two."

Once the waiter left, the room finally felt private.

"Li Zhiyan, I heard that Li Jinfeng's Wangxi Village project was initiated long ago, but recently faced repeated setbacks."

"The inability to proceed with demolition smoothly is all because of your obstruction."

"It wasn't settled until Li Jinfeng approached you for negotiation—you're really impressive."

"Describing you as a young hero isn't an overstatement."

Yu Hongmei sincerely praised Li Zhiyan; he truly was an extraordinary young man.

Yu Hongmei had never encountered such an impressive young person; her own daughter studying in America was nothing compared to Li Zhiyan.

She's merely relying on family resources.

As for Zhou Yunfei, he's purely a rich second-generation kid with no skills. It's only a matter of time before he squanders Li Jinfeng's family wealth.

"Auntie Yu, I was just a bit lucky."

Yu Hongmei smiled and didn't say more, thinking that if luck alone could achieve what Li Zhiyan had,

everyone lucky would already be soaring high.

"Anyway, Auntie really admires you; your success today is by no means accidental."

"About the nanny incident last time, Auntie is very grateful to you. If it weren't for you, Auntie would have been in big trouble."

"If you ever encounter something you can't resolve in the future, you can come to Auntie. She can help you carry the load once."

Yu Hongmei's words carried significant weight, implying that no one has ever received such a promise from her before; it's just that Li Zhiyan's kindness to her was too immense.

"Alright, Auntie Yu, I understand."

Seeing Li Zhiyan's sincere eyes, Yu Hongmei's goodwill towards him involuntarily increased even more.

This kid is always so likable.

"Xiao Yan, when you called Auntie last night, she felt something seemed off; did Zhou Tianhua do something again?"

Li Zhiyan had always been aware of Yu Hongmei's wisdom and insight.

If she didn't have some ability, she wouldn't have achieved her current success.

In the beginning, although she relied on the Zhou Family's resources to start, everything afterward was all her own effort.

"He did. Let me show you a video."

Li Zhiyan sat beside Yu Hongmei.

Then he opened a pre-edited video on his phone, showing a group of female classmates gathered around Gu Wanzhou, encouraging her to be with Zhou Tianhua.

"Auntie Yu, Zhou Tianhua deliberately organized a gathering and bribed these people to make them..."
