Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed

Chapter 656: Chapter 230: Li Yuan’s Encyclopedia Introduction, Xia Zhijin’s Little Request_4

Zhong Tingyue’s beauty was undeniably stunning. Beautiful from every angle, she naturally exuded the aura of an aloof goddess.

Compared to the gentle and enduring beauty of Xia Zhijin, the first-love charm of Bai Weixi, and the lively, adorable Jiang Zhiyu, Zhong Tingyue’s looks were far more devastating to other girls.

The three girls fell silent in unison, listening as Li Yuan sang "Once Is Enough" with deep emotion.

After hearing the song, many things became obvious, requiring no further thought. The fact laid out before them was that Li Yuan, this cheating scumbag, not only had his cousin but also two other incredibly beautiful girlfriends.

Looking at her silent friend’s complex expression, Zhang Xiulan coughed lightly and offered a gentle reminder.

"Yanyan, I think if you’re going to tell your cousin, you need to be careful about your approach and find the right moment. It’s best to lead into it gently instead of being too abrupt. Your cousin might not be able to handle it."

Sun Junjun echoed the sentiment.

"It would be best to talk to her face-to-face. With you there, you can comfort her and prevent her from getting overwhelmed and doing something foolish."

Chu Yanyan nodded silently. She clearly understood her two roommates’ good intentions.

"I know. I’ll subtly test the waters with Zhijin first, then I’ll go to Daxia University to find her this weekend."

「」

On the way back, Li Yuan and Xia Zhijin chatted. It was evident that Xia Zhijin was very happy today; her face was adorned with a joyful and blissful smile from beginning to end.

"Zhijin, you sing really well. I always thought you didn’t sing much."

With a shy and graceful smile, Xia Zhijin explained, "I used to love it when I was young, but after my parents passed away, I seldom sang. I just listen occasionally now."

Li Yuan nodded. The death of parents greatly affects even adults, let alone a teenage girl. It would have been strange if there were no impact at all.

Li Yuan took Xia Zhijin’s small hand and comforted her, "Don’t worry, you have me from now on. I believe your late parents’ spirits in heaven would only want to see you and Ning grow up happily."

"Mhm!" Xia Zhijin agreed sweetly. Looking at the man before her, a thought rang deep within her heart. In this life, all I have is you!

As Li Yuan drove, he suggested, "Zhijin, my mother and Zixia should be asleep by now. Let’s head back to Jiangnan Garden. It’s been a while since we stayed there."

Xia Zhijin nodded shyly. In her heart, Jiangnan Garden was the home she shared with Li Yuan—a home of their own. In that home, they could relax more and truly become one... At this thought, her cheeks flushed red, and she fell silent.

Li Yuan kept driving, unaware of Xia Zhijin’s change in expression, and continued chatting.

"Zhijin, I’ve already arranged for driving school for you. It’s not far from our university. You can start this weekend. Once you have your license and we get a car, things will be much more convenient."

"You can ask your roommates if they want to join. It’s less boring with company."

"I might be quite busy for a while, so I won’t be able to be with you every day. At the company, I’m preparing to launch some new projects for the Zhihu website, and the Honor of Kings game has reached a critical stage."

Listening to Li Yuan, Xia Zhijin gently squeezed his hand and smiled softly.

"It’s okay. I can manage by myself."

「」

Upon returning to Jiangnan Garden and entering the room, Li Yuan eagerly lifted Xia Zhijin by the waist and passionately pressed his face against hers.

Only in their own home could they cast aside all burdens and clothes to enjoy the true pleasure between a man and a woman.

The flames of youth that had been ignited in them at the KTV now began to burn fiercely.

「」

After the tempest calmed, a shy and obedient Xia Zhijin lay in Li Yuan’s embrace. Batting her bright, gleaming eyes, she traced circles on his chest and began to speak with a touch of trepidation.

"Husband, can I ask you for something?"

Hearing Xia Zhijin call him "Husband," Li Yuan’s heart stirred. He playfully squeezed her breasts and laughed.

"My sweet darling, what is it?"

Xia Zhijin bit her lip, her heart pounding with nervousness, her voice barely above a whisper.

"Could you, possibly, write a song for me, too?"
