Kapitel 17: 017, see you again, Li Zhan

Autor: You Yi Machinenübersetzung

Li Yan answered the phone in a coquettish tone.

Xiwan didn't expect that man to have a relationship with Li Yan. She just didn't know what kind of relationship it was...

He couldn't possibly be a lover. After all, everyone in the school knew that Miss Li Yan was madly chasing after Jiang Yi, the school brat. Could it be a celebrity that Li Yan liked? Fans were known to keep photos of themselves and their idols as their screensavers. But on second thought, that wasn't possible either. Although she didn't know all the actors in the entertainment industry, she knew that such unrivaled success would definitely be doing well in the business. It was impossible for her not to know him. Hence, there was only one explanation: he was Li Yan's relative, most likely her brother.

Although she had only met him briefly on that day, his appearance had stunned her. One had to know that the handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment industry were mass-produced, and Xiwan had long become numb to it. Moreover, she had high standards. The men that many people called handsome were just average in her eyes. It wasn't her fault that Li Xi, her former man, Lin Xi, was one of the best-looking men around.

However, this man was definitely the most handsome she had ever seen, and he had an excellent temperament. It was as if he was born with an untouchable sense of distance to him. To put it in a scholarly way, wherever he stood, it would be an ink wash painting.

After all, in this filthy secular world, there were very few elegant Young Masters who had such an ancient and immortal aura.

Li Yan, who was herself as delicate and beautiful as a rose, had an elder brother with such an elegant temperament.

Of course, she could have guessed wrong.

Li Yan quickly hung up the phone and looked at Jiang Yi. "It's my elder brother. He said he's coming to pick me up."

"Oh," Jiang Yi replied. Then, the three of them walked out of the Umami restaurant. The air outside was filled with the hustle and bustle of early autumn.

The man on the screen saver was indeed Li Yan's older brother. She had guessed it right.

What kind of parents could give birth to such a pair of dazzling children?

Li Yan and Jiang Yi didn't live on the school's campus, so they were walking a different way Xiwan. They should have gone their separate ways, but Jiang Yi firmly refused to let Xiwan go back to the school alone. He kept calling Xiwan. Her getting back to the school safely was his responsibility and obligation, but his heart roared like a crazy horse as he thought, 'Goddess, you are so beautiful, and it is already so late at night. How can I let you go back alone? No, I want to walk you back to school!'

Li Yan, who had been quietly waiting for her brother, knew that Jiang Xiwan could not be sent back to the school alone, but what kind of joke was this? Although some of her plans had failed today, she finally felt like she was present in the heart of her prince charming. How could she let Jiang Yi be alone with her sworn enemy to cultivate their relationship?

Thus, Lady Li Yan waved her hand and said, "Both of you wait with me. I will let my brother send you off."

Xiwan went to protest, but all that came out of her mouth was, "..."

Jiang Yi did not answer either.

Ten minutes later, a black Mercedes-Benz slowly stopped at the entrance.

"Big brother is here," Li Yan said with a smile. She took the lead and ran towards the car. Before long, she waved back to the two of them, indicating for them to hurry over.

Jiang Yi looked at Xiwan with deep affection. "Let's go, Xiwan," he said. The villain in his heart was already intoxicated. The thought of spending more time with the goddess filled his drunk heart with happiness. As for the rest, Jiang Yi simply ignored it.

Xiwan nodded and walked towards the car, but as she got closer she remembered that Li Yan's brother might be the man that she had kissed!

For a moment, she was actually a little nervous.

After all, that day, she had forced herself on him. It had been forced by an extreme situation, and even though he wasn't happy, he still helped her. In the end, she left very impolitely.

Thinking about it now, she was really sick that day. After all, anyone who was walking on the sidewalk would be disgusted if they were suddenly kissed by a stranger.

As she got closer to the car, Li Yan got out of the front passenger seat door suddenly. "You sit in the front," she said to Xiwan before pressing Xiwan into the passenger seat and closing the car door. She pulled Jiang Yi, who was stunned on the spot, into the back seat and closed the door. Her actions were as smooth as flowing water, all one motion.

The passive Xiwan and Jiang Yi were both quiet.

Xiwan sat in the front passenger seat and turned her head.

Sure enough, her eyes locked onto an extremely beautiful face.

It was indeed him!

The car was lit up with a faint warm yellow light. His jade face was enveloped by the light, making his features appear a little hazy. Like this, he seemed distant and unapproachable.

He turned his head and saw her. He had an indifferent expression and only nodded slightly.

Xiwan didn't know if he recognized her. She smiled back when he nodded at her, but she was still a little nervous.

Lady Li Yan sat at the back and commanded, "Brother, send Jiang Xiwan back to school first."

"Okay." His voice was clear and cold, but Xiwan could still see a trace of softness in his expression. It seemed like brother and sister had quite a good relationship.

"Hello, brother Li Zhan." Jiang Yi also spoke up from the back.

Li Zhan... That was a strange name. Wait a minute!

Li Zhan? Li Zhan! The current CEO of the Sky Shadow Media Company that she wanted to join? The famous Li Zhan who had always been a mystery in the industry?

Was it him? Could it be him?

She suddenly remembered at a few banquets there were some girls who had seen him, and they were swapping stories and talking about him. It seemed like there was no other man in this world who was more outstanding than Li Zhan.

At that time, she had scoffed at him.

The Sky Shadow Media Company had only been in business for a few short years. Sure, it was on par with the veteran tycoons, but it was an exaggeration to say that he was the most outstanding man in the world. Even if love wasn't enough, she still had her family depending on Lin Xi's support. How could Li Zhan be any better than Lin Xi?

But now, it seemed like Lin Xi had lost by looks and importance, not to mention wealth and strength.

It turned out that such a man did exist. It was as though the heavens had adorned him with all the best jewelry in the world.

Li Zhan Heard Jiang Yi's greeting and nodded. He politely acknowledged him, before turning to Xiwan. "Seat belt, please," he said.

Xiwan was stunned for a moment and blushed. She quickly fastened her seat belt before Li Zhan drove off.

The low-profile Mercedes-Benz steadily entered traffic. Xiwan's heart was in a mess, filled with doubts about him. They drove past countless sceneries on both sides, and it didn't take long for them to arrive at the school gate.

She got out of the car and stood where she was. She watched the car drive away, and only returned to the dormitory once it had disappeared from her sight. The first thing she did was search to find any information she could about Li Zhan on the internet.

A lot of news popped up on Baidu, but most of it seemed useless. There was some gossip she hadn't heard about that seemed to have no basis. There were a few photos of him, but they were limited and only showed his silhouette from a distance.

She recognized him straight away.

They captured his elegant temperament, like tall mountains and flowing water. He was the only one.
