Chapter 125 The Return of the White Lotus



Su Rao still wanted to persuade Yan Zhi, since jobs weren't easy to find these days.

"Have you found a company you're interested in?" Su Rao asked.

Yan Zhi shook her head, her gaze gentle.

Su Rao instantly became furious: "Why did you resign when you haven't even found another job?"

Yan Zhi said casually, her gaze light: "Take your time, you'll find it eventually."

Su Rao asked, "Do you own a house? Mr. Leng's doesn't count."

Yan Zhi shook her head.

Su Rao asked again, "Do you have a car? Mr. Leng's doesn't count."

Yan Zhi shook her head again.

"Do you have any savings? Mr. Leng's doesn't count."

The Leng family really gave a lot. Yan Zhi still has 400,000 to 500,000 yuan left after half a year at the Leng family. I wonder if Su Rao would consider this 400,000 to 500,000 yuan as savings.

Having seen large sums of money at the Leng family, Su Rao couldn't care less about such small amounts. Thinking of this, Yan Zhi shook her head again.

Su Rao was instantly annoyed: "You're a nobody, where do you get the audacity to quit your job without a plan? Where do you get the audacity to give up such a generous salary from Leng Corporation?"

Yan Zhi smiled faintly, her face calm and indifferent: "Life is short, and we may be gone any day. As long as we have enough money, why put so much pressure on ourselves?"

Time is merciless, and Yan Zhi, barely clinging to life, is helpless in the face of her fleeting existence. The only thing she can do now is to avoid being disturbed by external things.

Walk around, stop and go, spend the rest of your life in a way you like. When you run out of money, go to work. When you have enough money, take a break and heal your soul. Repeat this cycle.

Some might say Yan Zhi is decadent, but life has countless possibilities, and in the end it all depends on personal choices.

Let it be listless... just let it be listless.

Yan Zhi didn't aspire to great wealth and status, but she lived a good life.

Su Mei was taken aback. Yan Zhi was able to say such things, probably because of the emotional trauma caused by the death of her former lover. Her mindset had become negative. Su Mei used to think that Yan Zhi's carefree and easygoing attitude was just an act, but now she realized that Yan Zhi had simply given up on treatment and was just giving up.

If Yan Zhi loves her ex so much, what will happen to President Leng?

The living can never win against the dead.

Thinking of this, Su Rao couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her family's CEO.

Su Rao retorted, "Then tell me what you mean by 'enough'?"

When I was a child, I thought money was everything. When I grew up, I realized that what I thought as a child was not wrong at all. In this world, how can you survive without money?

This question did not stump Yan Zhi. Without thinking, she smiled gently and said, "Hmm... it won't affect my survival, right? I'll enjoy as much happiness as I have in terms of money."

Anyway, Yan Zhi is all alone. Her parents have pensions and don't need her to take care of them. Since Fei Fei left, she has long lost the motivation to improve herself. Coupled with the difficulties brought about by this marriage, Yan Zhi has become even more indifferent.

A lover is optional. A job is optional; I can go or stay. I'm free to go anywhere; I'll just take it one day at a time.

Su Rao pursed her lips and thought seriously: "What you said makes some sense, but if I don't work hard, what will I have left?"

Yan Zhi pondered for a moment, then smiled gently: "Hmm...you still have the nerve to say that."

"..." Su Rao really fastened the buckle.

o(一︿一+)o.

Su Rao knew Yan Zhi wouldn't say anything reliable; it was a real waste of her time and effort to listen...

Su Rao shrugged and said domineeringly, "Forget it, at most I'll treat you to dinner until you find a job, if Mr. Leng doesn't mind being embarrassed."

Yan Zhiwen smiled gently: "Then I thank Secretary Su in advance for her generous donation."

When Leng Linli and Wen Shichu arrived at Jiang Taigong's Fish Mansion, Yan Zhi and Su Rao were already eating.

From afar, Leng Linli saw Yan Zhi's gentle smile; the light in her eyes was tender and lively.

It had been so long since he had seen her smile like that.

I don't know what Su Rao said to her, but she's so happy today.

Yan Zhi was very happy with Su Rao.

Yan Zhi was very happy with Lin Xi.

Yan Zhi was very happy to be with her grandmother.

Yan Zhi was also very happy to be with Aunt Nan.

Why is she always so indifferent and distant when she's with him?

Her happiness was evident at that moment; her smile was bright and pure, like the warm sun in winter—pure, beautiful, and comforting.

Leng Linli remained silent for a long while. Perhaps it was because she didn't love him that Yan Zhi acted so politely and distantly when facing him.

His cold, sharp gaze lingered on Yan Zhi's face. He stood rooted to the spot, unable to move an inch, staring intently at Yan Zhi with deep eyes.

Just looking at her like this, he felt a strange sense of peace.

A thought suddenly arose in my mind: it wouldn't be bad if I could just keep looking at her like this.

Suddenly, Leng Linli was jolted awake, startled by his own unbelievable thought!

It was a strange feeling, as if he had fallen deeply in love with her.

He had never loved anyone before and didn't understand this feeling. Was this what everyone called love?

Leng Linli's eyelashes fluttered slightly as he pondered, but before he could reach a conclusion, he was abruptly interrupted by a plaintive voice: "Brother!"

Leng Linli snapped out of his daze and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see Bai Lian, whom he hadn't seen for almost two weeks, standing behind him.

“Brother…” Bai Lian smiled coldly, tears glistening in her eyes.

"When did you get back?" Leng Linli asked calmly, his tone even.

Bai Lian was wearing a white dress, her long black hair was straight, and her eyes were clear; she looked like a recent college graduate.

She looked cold and stern, and before she even spoke, the tears in Bai Lian's eyes grew thicker and thicker, as if they were about to burst forth at any moment. Her long, straight, smooth hair cascaded down, making her small, delicate oval face appear even smaller. Combined with the moisture in her eyes, she looked even more pitiful, as if she had been humiliated.

"Brother, I don't want to go abroad. Could you please beg my sister-in-law not to send me abroad again? I'll find a place to live outside, and I won't bother you anymore," Bai Lian cried softly, looking at Leng Linli with hopeful eyes.

Leng Linli frowned slightly: "What happened to you abroad?"

"Brother, I promise I won't affect you and sister-in-law. I'll stay far away, just don't send me abroad... I'll go beg sister-in-law right now, okay?" Bai Lian's gaze gradually fell on Yan Zhi, her sobs intensified, and her frail appearance made it seem as if she would faint if she said another word.

Bai Lian bypassed Leng Linli and ran straight towards Yan Zhi. Her figure was slender and graceful. Just as she was about to pass Leng Linli, he stopped her.

Bai Lian looked innocently at Leng Linli, her eyes brimming with tears.

“If you don’t want to go abroad, then don’t go. You don’t need to go and beg her.” Leng Linli said calmly, his expression somewhat indifferent.

“Brother…but what about Grandma…” Bai Lian was on the verge of tears. If Yan Zhi hadn’t complained to Grandma, how could Grandma have so resolutely sent her abroad? No one knows how she survived those two weeks abroad.
