Chapter 713: Chapter 713: May-December Romances Are Pretty Great!
Li Yanzhou: “It’s okay.”
Li Yufei: “I hope you would inherit the Li Family.”
Li Yanzhou looked at her somewhat blankly: “Doesn’t the Li Family have you?”
Li Yufei: “The Li Family has me, but it can’t just be me.”
Li Yanzhou closed the script: “I feel like I don’t have much talent for business.”
Li Yufei: “You’re my brother. No matter how bad you are, how bad can you be? I know you don’t like the kind of environment in the flashy world of fame, the hypocrisy, the hedonism. But what’s so clean about the entertainment industry?”
Li Yanzhou: “At least, I can refuse things I don’t like.”
Li Yufei gazed into his eyes, and after a long time, she finally said calmly, “You should know who gave you the capital to refuse.”
Li Yanzhou was a bit taken aback.
He understood that if he wasn’t backed by the Li Family, he wouldn’t have had such an easy time these past few years.
Li Yanzhou picked up the coffee and took a sip: “Iced latte?”
Li Yufei: “Do you want milk?”
Li Yanzhou: “No, give me sugar.”
Li Yufei handed him a sugar packet.
Li Yanzhou said: “I can consider accepting the family business, but from graduation until now, I’ve never meddled in the company’s affairs. If you want to help me get to the top, what attitude will those old fossils on the board have?”
Li Yufei: “You don’t need to worry about that, I’ll handle it. Once you officially leave the entertainment circle, I’ll arrange for you to enter the company and start from a departmental position. The plan is to get you on track within two years.”
Li Yanzhou: “Zhang Aiyun surely won’t be content. She hopes her son will take the CEO position.”
Li Yufei smiled slightly: “If she wants, I can step aside for Li Yanqing—if she has that ability.”
Li Yanzhou smiled subtly, looked up at Li Yufei, and said: “Why all of a sudden do you want me to return and take over the business? Currently, the Li Family is doing well in your hands, why are you thinking about this, or do you have other plans?”
Li Yufei’s expression became slightly unnatural.
She bit her lip lightly and suddenly said, “I’ve fallen for someone.”
Li Yanzhou’s eyebrows knitted slightly: “Who?”
Li Yufei: “You haven’t met. When there’s an opportunity, I’ll introduce him to you.”
Li Yanzhou couldn’t help but become interested.
After so many years, Li Yufei had a cemented heart; besides Du Shaoheng, no other man had ever entered her heart.
Now, is this like a miracle happening?
He was a bit curious and said: “I’m really curious, what kind of extraordinary man can steal my sister’s heart?”
Li Yufei: “Hey, what do you mean by steal? Do you think I’m such an easy woman to deceive?”
Li Yanzhou: “Because I know you’re not easy to deceive, it makes me even more curious, what kind of tricks did that guy use to capture you?”
Li Yufei suddenly thought of Rong Ling.
She gently propped her chin up and thinking of him lifted her mood, bringing a smile to her face: “He’s someone… I regret not meeting earlier.”
But, it couldn’t have been any earlier.
Ten years ago, Rong Ling was still in elementary school.
Thinking about it this way, she even felt a bit guilty.
Back when she was in New Jersey, she’d sometimes lament to him about their ten-year age gap.
She always thought, he was much younger than her.
Yet Rong Ling replied to her: “Is it that much? When we’re old and gray, you’ll be ninety, I’ll be eighty-one. There’s not much of a difference; anyway, we’d still be just an old couple.”
Li Yufei was immediately amused by him.
Li Yanzhou became more intrigued: “You said you regret not meeting him sooner. If, at the time, you met Du Shaoheng and him at the same time, which one would you choose?”
Li Yufei: “Do you have to ask such a provoking question?”
Li Yanzhou mischievously said: “I won’t snitch to Du Shaoheng.”
Only in front of Li Yufei would this cold and abstinent idol show his childish side.
Li Yufei said: “I can only tell you, my fate with Shaoheng just wasn’t meant to be.”
Li Yanzhou: “Oh! Before, I even felt sorry for him, always regarded him as a soon-to-be brother-in-law, but in the end, nothing happened. I always thought he loved you so much that he couldn’t live without you.”
Li Yufei: “Now he has his own family and an adorable daughter. In this world, anyone can live without someone, it just depends on how they live.”
Li Yanzhou: “So, have you already moved on from him?”
Li Yufei: “Yes.”
She paused, then said: “Actually, I’ve never regretted any decision I’ve made. If I could go back in time, I would still let him go. You know, back then, I would rather have disappointed anyone else than myself.”
Li Yanzhou: “Good thing Du Shaoheng isn’t here, otherwise, he’d be heartbroken.”
Li Yufei: “He had a car accident.”
Li Yanzhou’s expression changed: “Car accident?”
Li Yufei briefly summarized the incident for him.
Li Yanzhou listened and suddenly felt a bit regretful: “What a pity. This illness will ruin his life.”
Li Yufei: “That’s why I’m trying to figure out a way. I’ll do my utmost to cure his illness.”
Li Yanzhou: “You’re not a deity, nor a savior. What if it can’t be cured… I’m afraid you won’t get over it. So, you’re putting in so much effort to treat him because you feel guilty, or is it because… you still have him in your heart?”
Li Yufei gave him a cool look: “To me, he’s just Junjun’s father, half a relative. My heart is small, only room for one person.”
She paused for a moment, then reached out and pinched his cheek: “Okay, your sister has someone she likes. Shouldn’t you be happy for her?”
Li Yanzhou burst into laughter: “Of course, I’m happy. But, I’m curious about what kind of extraordinary person this brother-in-law is. When will you introduce us, so I can help you check him out?”
Li Yufei pouted: “Even though he’s a brother-in-law, he’s a bit younger than you.”
Li Yanzhou: “Younger in what way?”
He didn’t react for a moment.
Li Yufei: “…Age. He’s currently studying abroad. After his birthday, he should be 24.”
Li Yanzhou slightly opened his mouth, hesitant to speak: “24 years old!!?”
He was so surprised that he couldn’t even close his mouth.
Li Yufei: “I knew you’d be surprised, but I didn’t expect you to be this surprised.”
Li Yanzhou: “Isn’t the age gap too big? 24 is still a kid, how could he have won you over?”
Li Yufei protested: “I told you, it’s not being won over!”
Li Yanzhou: “Oh, what I understand now is that you were the one who won him over!”
Li Yufei scolded with a laugh: “You’re asking for a beating!”
Li Yanzhou immediately put his hands together: “I was wrong, I was wrong! Um… actually, thinking about it, I also feel… a relationship with a younger man is pretty good! Nowadays, younger guys all like older women, it’s not unusual!”
