The Billionaire's Hidden Affection

Chapter 837 - 834: The County Magistrate’s Wife 3

"I’m leaving for C Country tomorrow. When I get a holiday, I’ll come to visit you at South Country University. Besides, I haven’t been to South Country yet, so it’ll be a good experience..."

Li Zhen had already figured it out: she really was alone, with no one seeing her off.

In his heart, there was a cheer a thousand times over: they really did break up.

No more romantic rivals.

When a man pursues a woman, he’s most afraid not of her being coy and rejecting him multiple times, but of her already being with someone else and pursuing her would be in vain.

Without rivals, he’s already halfway to success.

The man isn’t married, and the woman isn’t wed. From now on, they could be open and aboveboard.

He was extraordinarily excited: "I have a classmate studying law at Harvard for his PhD, his name is Li Mingyu. I’ve already told him about you in detail. When you arrive, he’ll come to pick you up. If you encounter any trouble, just find him... Here’s his contact information..."

On the card, it detailed Li Mingyu’s phone number, address, email, and even messaging app details.

Li Zhen grinned: "He didn’t use the messaging app before, but for convenience, I asked him to get it. Just add him. I told him to keep in touch at all times over the next few days, just in case we can’t find him. Oh right, I’ll give him your flight number soon so he can be sure to be at the airport on time..."

Yan Xixi quickly responded: "No need, really, don’t trouble him."

They don’t even know each other, how could she ask someone to pick her up?

Besides, with Lin Zhiyun accompanying her, why would she need someone else to pick her up?

"It’s no trouble, he has a car. Picking you up is perfectly fitting."

"But we’re strangers, how can I bother him like this? Li Zhen, it’s really not necessary."

Li Zhen thought nothing of it: "I helped him out a lot back in the day. This is the first time I’m asking him to do something. Don’t worry, it’s no trouble at all."

"..."

"He was struggling back then, couldn’t even afford tuition, and often ate only vegetables. But every week, he’d come to my house to have a big meal, and my mom would make lots of good food for him to take back to his dorm. During the four years of university, he spent three of them celebrating New Year’s with our family, and every year my mom would give him a big red envelope..."

That envelope was practically his basic living expenses for a semester.

No wonder he dared to call on him so easily.

Li Zhen grinned: "The kid hit it big later. Last year, by some chance, he earned quite a lot of money, bought a new car, and sent money back to his rural parents to fix their house. Just because he has a car, it’s perfect for picking you up at the airport. Don’t be shy with him... He wouldn’t dare show you any disrespect..."

Yan Xixi couldn’t help but laugh quietly.

"After all, it’s good to have someone accompany you when you’re new. Look, here’s his photo... I’ve also sent him one of yours, just in case he can’t recognize you when the time comes..."

Yan Xixi saw Lin Zhiyun’s photo and silently praised Li Zhen’s meticulousness.

"Li Zhen, thanks a lot for this."

Li Zhen rubbed his head: "Hey, I’m just happy to do something for you."

At that moment, someone suddenly let out a hush.

Both of their gazes followed the crowd to take a look, and they both froze for a moment. A luxurious new car came to a halt; a man and a woman stepped out.

The woman wore sunglasses, but they couldn’t hide her endless charm. She was dressed in a sleeveless long dress, her lovely curves swaying gracefully as she walked. Beside her, the man was tall and strong, full of masculine appeal.
