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

However, Shen Rongfei now even felt a sense of habituation toward Li Zhiyan calling her "Mom."

This feeling seemed quite nice.

"The milk tea shop, what's its name?"

"Zhichen Milk Tea Shop."

"You can visit the school area when you're free, and I'll take you to see it."

Shen Rongfei's beautiful red lips parted slightly in surprise.

Her heart was truly astonished; before, she had thought that Yin Qiang was quite good.

But now, on closer inspection, Yin Qiang obviously wasn't on the same level as Xiao Yan.

One was a rich second generation who relied on his family's wealth to deceive girls' feelings.

The other was Li Zhiyan, a self-made young man who had assumed responsibility from a poor family at an early age.

Clearly, Li Zhiyan's future seemed even more splendid.

And now Li Zhiyan had also become very handsome—well dressed and groomed, he had the potential to become a male god.

Truly a perfect son-in-law.

"Hmm..."

"Son..."

After blurting out "son" subconsciously, Shen Rongfei was startled by her own words.

A blush flashed across her beautiful face.

This hint of redness brought her stunning beauty to an extreme.

"Xiao Yan, my wrist hurts a bit, massage it for me."

Being called "son" by Shen Rongfei, Li Zhiyan felt an inexplicable sense of happiness in his heart.

This truly was the only mother he had, besides his own.

He would definitely take good care of her in the future.

"Okay, Mom, I'll massage it for you."

Li Zhiyan took hold of Shen Rongfei's delicate hand and began to massage it.

"Xiao Yan, your massage skills are really impressive, the heritage of traditional Chinese medicine is profound and extensive."

"Mom, rest assured, if you feel unwell anywhere in the future, you can always come to me for a massage, I guarantee to relieve all your pain."

Because she had just called him "son," Shen Rongfei found Li Zhiyan increasingly endearing.

This child felt like her own son, and an old saying even goes 'a son-in-law is half a son.'

So, it would be quite normal to call him her son in the future.

She had to strive to maintain this mother-son affection; it was one of the few sources of warmth she felt in this world.

...

Half an hour later, Shen Rongfei drove Li Zhiyan back to the internet café.

"Xiao Yan, have a good talk with Chenchen."

Li Zhiyan asked with concern, "Mom, does your hand feel better?"

"Hmm... It doesn't hurt anymore."

"Xiao Yan, Auntie has to go back to the company now."

Li Zhiyan knew that Shen Rongfei's company was busy. She had come to see him today mainly out of concern for Chenchen. Maternal love really was great, but Li Zhiyan knew that Aunt Shen's love for him would also turn into maternal love because he would become her son.

Putting aside his thoughts, Li Zhiyan returned to the internet café to continue gaming; at the same time, he sent a message to Jiang Xian.

"Auntie Jiang, are you awake?"

"I'm awake."

Jiang Xian replied promptly.

"Then I'll come to the hotel to see you."

"Okay, just wait a bit, Auntie will put on some makeup."

In front of Li Zhiyan, Jiang Xian was very concerned about her appearance.

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Li Zhiyan was in no rush; he knew how much women pursued perfection in makeup, so it was normal for it to take an hour or more.

It was only Fang Zhiya who didn't like putting on makeup. However, without any makeup, her skin remained smooth and tender, and every time he saw her, his heart couldn't help but flutter.

...

In Fang Zhiya's company, the elder sister sitting beside her teased with a mischievous grin, "Little Fang."

"I didn't realize, your husband, at his age, is still so powerful."

"Impressive."

"Elder Sister Wang, what are you talking about..."

Fang Zhiya's pretty face flushed instantly; such topics were still too stimulating for her.

"What am I talking about? Don't you know?"

"Little Fang, you were leaning against the wall when you walked out of the restroom at the office today. Really impressive."

"I'm not going to talk to you..."

Fang Zhiya covered her face, bowed her head, and was at a loss for words.

It was only after being with Xiao Yan that she realized she had completely wasted the first half of her life.

"Oh come on, there's nothing to be embarrassed about."

"It's a good thing, you have no idea how jealous I am of you."

"Your brother-in-law has long been good for nothing."

"Just like a useless person."

...

Hotel room.

Jiang Xian got up, intending to change into clothes and do her makeup, but she discovered a storybook magazine in a corner.

After seeing the story, Jiang Xian's heart started to race...

It must have been left by the previous guest.

Unable to contain herself, Jiang Xian picked up the storybook and flipped to the first story.

"Isn't the plot described in this story too exaggerated?"

Jiang Xian suddenly realized that Xiao Yan was similarly exaggerated!

His talent was just that astonishing.

For a moment, Jiang Xian felt she could hardly control her thoughts; she kept reading, feeling as if the storybook had a magical pull, drawing her in to keep looking through it.
