Reborn: Instead of Chasing the School Beauty, I Chased Her Mother

Li Zhiyan's words made Fang Zhiya, who was already feeling weak, blush with shame.

Before, she and Li Zhiyan had taken precautions.

But now, if Li Zhiyan wanted her to get pregnant, that would mean...

Fang Zhiya, with her extremely traditional heart, didn't dare to continue thinking about what that felt like.

"Don't..."

"Baby."

Fang Zhiya leaned on Li Zhiyan's shoulder, speaking with him with some difficulty.

"Auntie is getting on in years, if she gets pregnant, people will gossip and point fingers."

Li Zhiyan gently kissed Fang Zhiya's pretty face.

"Aunt Fang, you don't want to get pregnant for me?"

"I want you to get pregnant."

Li Zhiyan's words were very direct, and for Fang Zhiya, they were somewhat difficult to accept.

"Baby... it's not that Auntie is unwilling to get pregnant for you."

Now, for Fang Zhiya, there was no one else in the world worth her efforts, only Li Zhiyan. That was it. What else could she not do for him?

"It's just that too many things have happened to Auntie recently, and they have hit me very hard."

"Like the things you mentioned about wearing black stockings, give Auntie some time to digest and accept them, okay?

"Right now, Auntie still feels the pain."

Li Zhiyan could also understand Fang Zhiya, indeed, he shouldn't rush things.

Her husband going to jail, divorce, her son's traps; these were relationships she had nourished for so many years, and to lose everything in such a short time was an unimaginable blow for her.

"Okay, Aunt Fang, I understand."

"Let's go look for a house first. It's not that hot anymore."

"If we find the right place, I can come often to eat your noodles, Auntie. The noodles and hot sauce you make are truly exceptional."

Fang Zhiya remembered the days when she sold mixed noodles, how hard it was, but thankfully she had Li Zhiyan.

"Okay, baby, let's go."

"By the way, Auntie, change your clothes first. These are really not suitable for going out."

Fang Zhiya's short skirt and stockings were only worn at home, for Li Zhiyan's sake - so she could show them to him and let him touch her legs.

If she went out dressed like that, Fang Zhiya genuinely struggled to accept it.

"Alright."

"I understand, Aunt Fang."

"You go change clothes."

...

After leaving the hotel, the two had a simple dinner, and Li Zhiyan got Fang Zhiya a new mobile phone number.

After destroying the SIM card and throwing it into the sewer, Li Zhiyan knew.

Aunt Fang had completely separated from her past life.

After that, the two of them started looking for houses in the nearby neighborhoods.

During their search, he was also continuously making calls for rental information.

After viewing a few places, Fang Zhiya said somewhat heartachingly, "Xiao Yan, we keep looking at three-bedroom apartments; they're just too expensive."

"How about we try a shared apartment instead? It's cheaper, and we can find some women to share with."

Li Zhiyan resolutely rejected the idea of a shared apartment.

With shared living, too many things would become inconvenient.

"Aunt Fang, if we share, it means little privacy, and besides, if we were to get intimate, everyone would know all the details."

"Have you forgotten the incident with the abusive couple next door who were always fighting?"

Li Zhiyan felt a certain poignancy, thinking that he had no conflicts on his end, but it could cause problems for others.

"Hmm..."

With that explanation, Fang Zhiya also understood that some money really couldn't be saved.

Then, they arrived at an old-fashioned two-bedroom apartment complex.

Though it had no elevator, the apartment was on the second floor, so the environment was actually quite nice.

"Young man."

The landlord was an old lady with a face full of wrinkles. Although she looked old, Li Zhiyan always felt she had a certain energy about her.

"Young man, this apartment has particularly good feng shui, if you rent it, you're sure to get into a good university."

Since Li Zhiyan was only 18, wherever he went, people assumed he was preparing for university entrance exams, with Fang Zhiya obviously accompanying him as a guardian.

This apartment, in comparison to the ones they had seen before, was smaller, but it was clean and tidy.

Moreover, both the master bedroom and living room had air conditioning, and even the bathroom had a small fan.

The washing machine and all essentials were there, unlike when they lived in that tiny rented room.

Aunt Fang always used to wash clothes by hand, which was fine for the short term, but over time, Aunt Fang's delicate hands would really start to age. Li Zhiyan couldn't bear that thought, especially since Aunt Fang was over 40, he felt he had to take even better care of her.

At that moment, Li Zhiyan's mind was wandering, thinking about when the system might offer a reward to keep a woman eternally youthful.

If he could have all those miraculous skills, surely maintaining the status quo for Aunt Fang, whom he cared about, shouldn't be a problem.

Then, Li Zhiyan noticed that the master bedroom's ceiling was made of reflective material.

It was like the ceiling was covered with a huge mirror, clearly showing everything on the floor when one looked up.

Li Zhiyan suddenly understood why he felt that old lady had a fiery air about her – it seemed there was indeed a bit of heat there.

"Granny, this place is nice, with good natural light. I'll rent it."

Li Zhiyan made up his mind.

The two of them signed the contract and paid the money, completing the process in less than twenty minutes. In this era, before greedy agents had monopolized all housing stock for robbery, renting an apartment was still a fairly easy task.

After all was done, only Li Zhiyan and Fang Zhiya were left in the apartment.
