A man should keep his word. If he promised to take Yang Zihan home after get off work, he should do so.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Liu Xiaoyuan waited for Yang Zihan at the hotel entrance on his motorcycle. After seeing Yang Zihan walk out of the hotel, Liu Xiaoyuan waved to her, and Yang Zihan smiled and jogged over.

"Come on up!" Liu Xiaoyuan called out.

This time, Yang Zihan wasn't as reserved and polite as before. Upon hearing this, she immediately got on Liu Xiaoyuan's motorcycle.

However, Yang Zihan still gripped the back of the motorcycle with both hands to steady herself, just like last time.

"Is it a good seat?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked.

"Alright, General Manager, you can start now!" Yang Zihan said.

As evening fell, there were fewer cars and pedestrians on the road, so Liu Xiaoyuan increased the speed of his motorcycle to 60 km/h. 60 km/h was already a fast speed for Liu Xiaoyuan's rather old motorcycle.

"General Manager, slow down!" Yang Zihan shouted at Liu Xiaoyuan when she saw him driving so fast.

However, due to the excessive speed, Liu Xiaoyuan did not hear what Yang Zihan said at all and had to stop the car.

Upon further inquiry, it was discovered that Yang Zihan complained about the car speed being too fast, leaving Liu Xiaoyuan with no choice but to slow the car down to 40 km/h.

But just a short while after the car started moving, Liu Xiaoyuan saw a cat suddenly dart out from the side of the road, which startled him so much that he quickly put both hands on the brakes.

Because of the sudden braking, Yang Zihan, who was sitting in the back, bumped her entire body into Liu Xiaoyuan.

Because it was summer, everyone was wearing relatively thin clothes, so when Yang Zihan's large breasts made intimate contact with Liu Xiaoyuan's back, Liu Xiaoyuan could clearly feel the softness of Yang Zihan's breasts.

Startled by the sudden stop, Yang Zihan clung tightly to Liu Xiaoyuan's waist with both hands.

"That damn cat!" Liu Xiaoyuan cursed, but the cat had already vanished without a trace.

"Zihan, are you alright?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked hurriedly.

Yang Zihan was still scared, clinging tightly to Liu Xiaoyuan's waist. When she heard the question, she said, "It's okay, I'm fine."

Fearing that something like this might happen again, Liu Xiaoyuan kept his speed between 20 and 30 kilometers per hour the whole way.

After what had just happened, Yang Zihan was frightened and clung to Liu Xiaoyuan's waist, not daring to let go.

Although Yang Zihan felt a little embarrassed doing this, compared to being scared, she preferred the embarrassment. Besides, holding Liu Xiaoyuan's waist like this gave her a sense of security she had never felt before, as if as long as she held Liu Xiaoyuan's waist, he could shield her from any storm…

"Zihan, you're home!" Liu Xiaoyuan parked the car steadily in front of Yang Zihan's house, but Yang Zihan was still completely unaware that she had arrived home.

"Ah!" Yang Zihan realized she had arrived home when she heard Liu Xiaoyuan's words. Her face flushed red, and she quickly got out of the car.

"Get some rest, goodnight!" Liu Xiaoyuan said to Yang Zihan with a smile.

"Good night, be careful on the road." Yang Zihan waved to Liu Xiaoyuan.

After watching Liu Xiaoyuan walk away, Yang Zihan turned around and went back into the house. But as soon as she turned around, she saw her mother already standing beside her.

"Mom! Why did you come out? It's windy at night." Yang Zihan immediately helped her mother back into the house.

Yang Zihan's mother has a heart condition and needs to take medication every day. In addition, her long-term illness has weakened her immune system, which has prevented her from doing heavy work and has to stay at home to do housework.

Yang Zihan's father passed away, so the heavy burden fell on the shoulders of this little girl.

Yang Zihan's mother said, "Mom is fine, Zihan. Was it your general manager who brought you back just now?"

Yang Zihan nodded and said, "Yes, our general manager brought me back."

Yang Zihan's mother, Lin Lanzhi, glanced at her daughter and said, "Zihan, I think your general manager is interested in you, otherwise he wouldn't be taking you home every day."

Yang Zihan blushed again and said shyly, "Mom, it's not every day, it's just two nights, and it's only on the way."

No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Seeing Yang Zihan's shy expression, Lin Lanzhi knew that her daughter did not dislike their general manager, and even had a good impression of him.

Thinking about how her daughter, at such a young age, had to shoulder the burden of the entire family, and how her monthly salary was basically spent on her own medical treatment and medicine, and she hadn't bought a single new piece of clothing in a year, Lin Lanzhi suddenly felt that she was a terrible mother.

Therefore, Lin Lanzhi had long wanted her daughter to find a boyfriend who was truly good to her. She didn't care how he treated his mother-in-law, as long as he was good to her daughter.

Lin Lanzhi also asked the village matchmakers to arrange a marriage for her daughter, but when the men heard about her family's situation, they all shook their heads and refused, because no one wanted to support a mother-in-law who was always sick.

"Zihan, I'm telling you seriously, if this general manager is genuinely pursuing you, and if he's someone you can entrust your life to, you can try dating him. I don't want to see you become an old maid and still unmarried!" Lin Lanzhi said with a smile, touching Yang Zihan's cheek.

Yang Zihan said shyly, "Mom, I'm going to boil water for a bath!" After saying that, Yang Zihan blushed and ran into the kitchen.

Watching her daughter's retreating figure, Lin Lanzhi smiled like a loving mother. Her biggest worry now was her daughter's marriage prospects, because given their family's circumstances, finding someone who would truly care for her daughter wouldn't be easy.

Either they think their daughter is a burden because of her illness, or they just like her daughter's appearance... In short, Lin Lanzhi wants her daughter to be less tired, to find a man who truly loves her, and to have a place for her daughter to rely on.

When Liu Xiaoyuan returned home, his parents were still watching TV. They were watching a local news channel, which was broadcasting a news report saying that Lin Xin, the CEO of Yuanda Group, was going to return to his hometown to invest in construction.

Holy crap! This is big news! Lin Xin, the chairman of Yuanda Group, is from this town. Yuanda Group is a top-tier conglomerate in China, and its chairman, Lin Xin, is a regular on the rich list.

Now that Yuanda Group is actually going back to its hometown to invest and build, the economy of its town or county will definitely skyrocket.

The news says that the CEO of Yuanda Group will return to his hometown, Tongyang County, tomorrow. At that time, even city officials will come to discuss investment and construction matters.

Lin Xin appears to be in his forties on television, but he is actually over fifty.

My father pointed at Lin Xin on the TV and exclaimed, "This man is the most famous and powerful person in the history of our town!"

My mom chimed in, "He's still the richest person. Didn't you hear on the news that his company is worth hundreds of billions? Tell me, how did they make so much money? If I had a few hundred thousand yuan, I'd be ecstatic."
