Lin Wanâs face was raised up to the sky. She closed her eyes and took in the citrus fragrance that wafted all around.
Li Yanchen snapped a few pictures of her on his phone. After two years, he had finally updated his WeChat Moments.
Lin Wan looked breathtakingly beautiful in the photos. He saved the three photos in his album titled âBeautifulâ.
The post sent all of Li Yanchenâs fans into an uproar.
[Still alive?]
[Mr. Li is using WeChat again? I thought that was a fake account.]
[It isnât a virus, right? I donât think viruses can post photos from Lan Village.]
[So, his WeChat is still in use?]
[Maybe Mr. Li only used it to make phone calls before.]
As Li Yanchen hardly ever posted anything on his WeChat Moments, the three photos that day garnered a lot of attention.
Assistant Qin wanted to leave a comment, but he was afraid his boss would think he was slacking off at work.
The other senior executives of the company also held themselves back with difficulty.
Li Yanchen flipped through the comments, feeling both annoyed and amused.
He replied to the comments. âAlive. Fresh out of the oven.â
[Hahaha⦠it is really Mr. Li.]
[Mr. Li, you are really in love with your wife. The first thing you post after such a long time is her photo!]
[This is good. Share more pictures from now on.]
[I feel so lucky to have caught Mr. Li online.]
âWhy are you looking at your phone when the day is this beautiful?â asked Lin Wan as she walked to his side.
She caught a glimpse of the photos. âAre those my pictures?â
She took out her own phone to check. âDid you post my pictures on your
WeChat Moments? So many comments!â
Lin Wan clicked on a picture to enlarge it. The photo was beautiful, but most comments expressed shock and surprise. âDonât you ever post anything on your moments?â
âNot reallyâ¦â
âSo⦠you donât really use WeChat? Do you reply to peopleâs messages?â
âI only reply to the important ones. I usually ignore useless chats. Some people just want to strike up conversations without a purpose or just text me for money. I just ignore them.â
âThose who ask for money donât return it?â
âI think if it is that important to them, they would call instead of asking for money on chat. I just donât reply to useless messages.â
âLet me seeâ¦â Lin Wan opened the inbox. âThere are so many notifications! Donât you feel impatient when you donât open them?â Lin Wan was the complete opposite. If she saw a red dot or a prompt telling her that she had a new message, she had to check no matter what.
âNot really⦠I donât use WeChat for important discussions or business matters. Besides, I have already flagged the important people so that I donât miss their texts.â Li Yanchen didnât really feel that it was important to check every message.
Although he had so many contacts on the list, they were added just because of business dealings. Most of them were insignificant.
Lin Wan had never seen Li Yanchenâs WeChat before. She had expected him to be very busy on the app. She had assumed that the fact he didnât play with his phone during the live broadcast was to make sure he gave it his full attention. It turned out that he didnât really use WeChat much.
He always replied to her within seconds, unless he was in a meeting. He always responded even if she was just spouting nonsense.
âI donât think other messages are important enough, but I always keep my phone notification on in case you message me whenever I am not by your side.
I guess Iâm biased in that way. I am partial toward you.â
Lin Wan stood up on her tiptoes and kissed him on his cheek. âYouâre also my favorite. I guess Iâm biased too.â
âOh my, youâre being all lovey-dovey yet again.â Xia MO had gone to the Li family house to find Lin Wan. When she didnât find her there, she assumed Lin Wan might be in the orchard. She had just arrived to see them being all cozy together.
âWhat are you doing here?â Lin Wan let go of him and moved away. âIf I have interrupted anything, I can leave.â Xia MO smiled and turned away.
âNo! You arenât interrupting anything,â said Lin Wan. âI just meant, why arenât you in the livestream?â
Xia MO sighed. âThe kids are in the courtyard doing their experiments again.
Old Xiao and I⦠we were just getting in the way. The viewers asked us to leave. Can you believe it?â she said. âUsually, viewers love to watch Xiao Tianlin perform his magic. Not today. They asked us to leave!â
âWell⦠all the celebrities are in your house today. Who would want to watch your old man? Itâs the same for us. Not many people were in our live broadcast room either, so we came here.â
Xia MO held Lin Wanâs hands. âCan I pass the time with you today? Itâs so boring.â She glanced at Li Yanchen. He didnât look happy with the idea.
âMr. Li, you should go find Xiao Tianlin too!â said Xia MO hurriedly. âWhen I came here, he went to look for you. You should try to comfort him. Performing magic is his absolute passion. He is so sad that no one wants to watch him today.â
âGo on,â said Lin Wan as she urged him.
Li Yanchen nodded gloomily. âLin Wan chose Xia Moâ¦â
Xia MO and Lin Wan held hands and walked around the village.
In the Li familyâs live broadcast room, viewers were impatiently waiting for Li Yanchen and Lin Wan to return.
[Mr. Li and Sister Lin have been gone for a while now. When will they be back?]
[Itâs fine. You can still watch Xuanxuan in Xiao Yiâs livestream room. He is sitting next to Li Chuan.]
[But I am a fan of the Sweet Little Circle. I know Lin Wan hasnât livestreamed for a while on that channel, but I still like watching her here. She sometimes answers questions about baking here, too. Itâs very helpful.] [Can I say that I am a fan of Mr. Li? I like old men like him.] [Hahaha⦠was that a compliment or an insult?]
[Forget it. No one is here anyway. I am going to go to sleep.]
In Feifeiâs house, Tao Jingyuan and Zheng Kuo were doing a live broadcast together.
âI just want to have a casual chat with everyone this morning. Can we keep the legal issues for the afternoon?â Tao Jingyuan didnât want to get into serious matters in the morning.
[Sure. ItâS too early tor legal matters, anyway.]
[Ms. Tao, youâre right. Talking about serious matters for the whole day isnât healthy. I want to hear you talk about how you take care of Feifei so well.]
[Feifei is at Xiao Yiâs house now. Heâs so sensible. The other children are all fighting to ask questions, but Feifei is so quiet and polite.]
[Avvwâ¦he is also the youngest among them too. How is he so sensible?]
âFeifei is a very timid child. I think he is a bit shy to talk to Li Chuan, so he comes off as being quiet,â said Tao Jingyuan.
[Feifei is so sensible because Ms. Tao is so humble. He must have learned it from his mother.]
[My impression of lawyers was that they are uptight, sharp-tongued, and mean. Tao Jingyuan has completely changed my preconceptions about them. I feel so calm and at ease whenever I see her.]
[Lawyer Tao is so gentle.]
Zheng Kuo also praised his wife. âJingyuan is a very gentle and kind person. She is very decisive and meticulous when it comes to her work, but she is so calm and gentle, too. She combines strength with kindness and balances both very well.â
[Teacher Zheng has spoken. The words of the person who loves and cares for you are the most honest.]
[Iâll love you forever, Lawyer Tao!]
