Chapter 722: Plot

Li Jingming clearly remembered how much Zhong Nianyao loved him in the past. So if he was willing to lower his stance, maybe there would still be a chance!

Zhong Nianyao was the daughter of the Zhong family, and she was so capable. As long as he could be with her, the Li family would definitely let him go back. Even if the Li family didn't let him go back, he wouldn't lose out by being with Zhong Nianyao. At the very least, he would be able to return to his former carefree life, instead of working for a small fortune like he was now.

It wasn't that he didn't want to find a more comfortable job, but he had no education. Tenglong College was an aristocratic institution, and after the Li family kicked him out, they no longer paid for his tuition. Previously, his mother had spent lavishly, leaving her with no savings at all.

Moreover, Mom's scheme against Grandma was exposed, and the Li family took back all of Mom's luxury goods and jewelry. It can be said that when they were kicked out, they really had no money left.

He couldn't afford the tuition at Tamron College, so he had to temporarily drop out. Because of his absence, he couldn't even get his university diploma. After graduating from high school, he struggled to find a job, and finally, through an introduction, he found a job as a waiter.

Working here, he would meet many people he knew before. When facing those people, he always felt very inferior. Even so, he could not resign because he really could not find a job with a higher salary than here.

As for Shen Yixue, he had already broken up with her a long time ago. He hated Shen Yixue so much now. If it wasn't Shen Yixue, he wouldn't have treated Zhong Nianyao like this.

Now he must find a way to catch Zhong Nian Yao again. Only in this way can he reverse his current predicament.

Since he was able to make Zhong Nian Yao completely infatuated with him before, he can do it now too.

Now is a good opportunity, he must seize it. Otherwise, it will not be so easy for him to meet Zhong Nianyao in the future.

Zhong Nianyao didn't know the decision Li Jingming had made in his heart.

Meeting Li Jingming here was just a trivial episode for her, and she naturally would not take such a little episode to heart.

Next, whether it was a coincidence or for some other reason, the people serving them became other people.

Zhong Nianyao didn't care about this at all. She had already put her encounter with Li Jingming behind her and was only thinking about how to have a good time in the next two days.

Lu Yichen, who was sitting opposite her, had a smile on his face and a hint of depth in his eyes.

After dinner, Zhong Nianyao took Lu Yichen for a walk around the resort. She planned to stroll around the resort and then go to the hot springs in the evening.

Strolling around casually, Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but sigh, "This resort is really nice, with a full range of facilities."

There are not only many leisure and entertainment venues here, but there is even a small hospital. The most exaggerated thing is that there is even a golf course.

I didn’t know it just now, but now after walking around, I realize that there are a lot of fun things here.

Lu Yichen nodded, "Indeed, otherwise it wouldn't be able to attract so many upper-class people to come here for vacation."

"The boss here must be quite impressive, and he must be quite powerful! He was able to acquire such a large piece of land on the outskirts of the imperial capital to build a resort." Zhong Nianyao was a little puzzled. "But why haven't I heard of this resort before?"

Lu Yichen smiled and said, "Since this place is mainly designed to attract the upper class, it's natural not to advertise casually. Otherwise, it would lower the quality of the place. Therefore, most of the people who know about this resort and come here to spend money are recommended by friends."

Zhong Nianyao nodded to show that she understood.

Since arriving in this world, she's had very little free time. And even if she did have some free time, she wouldn't have known such a place existed. She has almost no friends, so it's even more impossible for anyone to introduce her to a place.

Speaking of friends, she suddenly thought of Zhao Xuanlang.

"It seems like I haven't looked for Zhao Xuanlang since I came back this time!" She smiled awkwardly, "If Zhao Xuanlang knew, he would probably be very unhappy."

"Whether he's happy or not has nothing to do with us." Lu Yichen looked at Zhong Nianyao, tenderness flashing in his eyes. "Besides, you're by my side now, and you're still mentioning other men. Aren't you afraid that I'll be unhappy?"

Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but burst out laughing, "You! You really are jealous of everything!"

Lu Yichen raised his eyebrows, said nothing, and just looked at Zhong Nianyao quietly.

"Okay, let's stop talking about this and continue shopping!" Zhong Nianyao stepped forward, took Lu Yichen's hand, and smiled brightly, "If we don't continue shopping, wouldn't it be a waste of other people's good intentions?"

A glimmer of light flashed in Lu Yichen's eyes, and then he nodded, letting Zhong Nian Yao pull him forward.

Soon, the two arrived at a puppet shop.

Zhong Nianyao didn't have any particular obsession with such a small thing. However, since she happened to be here today, she naturally planned to take a good look at it.

Moreover, there are several fox-shaped dolls in this doll shop, which she likes very much.

While Zhong Nianyao was picking and choosing, Lu Yichen received a call. He then looked at Zhong Nianyao and said, "I'm going out to take care of something. You wait here for me. I'll be back soon."

While selecting dolls, Zhong Nianyao waved her hand nonchalantly, "It's okay, go ahead and do your work! I might have to pick for a while!"

Lu Yichen smiled and touched Zhong Nian Yao's hair, then left the doll shop.

Zhong Nianyao was looking at the fox-shaped dolls in the store and was choosing one.

"Nian Yao."

A voice sounded, immediately breaking Zhong Nianyao's interest.

She turned around and saw the person coming. Her expression didn't change at all. "Why are you here?"

The person who came was Li Jingming. He looked at Zhong Nianyao with deep affection and said, "I don't mean anything else. We haven't seen each other for a long time. I saw you today, so I wanted to talk to you. I didn't mean to disturb you."

Zhong Nianyao said expressionlessly, "But you did disturb me. Besides, there's nothing to say between you and me. Go away!"
