Chapter 57: Reforming One’s Heart and Starting Anew
seeing that others weren’t joining in, he gradually stopped laughing as it became more awkward."Li An, you should know why your mother and I suddenly came here today. Don't talk about unnecessary thin...Chapter 57: Reforming and Starting Anew
Liyang secretly reproached himself. As a man of the Li family, he was already grown up but had not brought any honor to his family or helped alleviate his brother's worries; instead, he had been causing trouble for him. Thinking about what he had done recently, it indeed seemed absurd and reckless. Even as he recalled these actions, he felt his face flush with shame and found himself unable to look anyone in the eye.
Although Liyang had some issues with emotional intelligence, after being silenced by his brother's reprimand and realizing that he was at fault, he still understood how to apologize. "Brother, I'm sorry, it's my mistake. I will definitely not be so capricious anymore."
Seeing Liyang finally willing to admit his mistakes, Liyi sighed in relief and試探性地問道:試探性的問道:"Since you are now an adult, you can't continue this idle lifestyle."咱們家雖然不需要你出人出力,但玩物喪誌,長期這樣下去對你自己也不好,不良習氣會越來越濃的,厲安,你有冇有想過,將來怎麼辦?
Even though our family doesn't need your help in terms of labor, wasting time and losing ambition is not good for you in the long run. Bad habits will only become more entrenched. Have you thought about what you're going to do in the future
"I want to return to the company to take on some responsibilities there. This way, I can also breathe fresh air and change my previous lifestyle." Liyang was smart; after making mistakes, many people tried various ways to make amends, and he wanted to do the same in the most suitable manner.
Liyi nodded. He indeed should find some work for this younger brother of his or else the boy might really go down a bad path.
Get ready and pull yourself together. The company is organizing a trip to Europe to visit some wind power plants there, as we have invested heavily in wind energy projects in Inner Mongolia—more than 20 billion yuan worth of investment. I've decided to entrust this project to you. This time, focus on the task at hand and don't let me or dad down!
Wind power generation is a completely new industry for the Dynasty Empire, and with such significant investments involved, An Li couldn't help but feel a surge of determination upon hearing his brother's words. He straightened up like a soldier about to head into battle and firmly answered, "Brother, this time I will make a fresh start and won't act recklessly anymore."
Liyi smiled approvingly; all he could do now was support his younger brother in whatever way possible. Regarding the relationship between An Li and Yan Luoxi, however, there was nothing more that he felt capable of doing.
As thoughts of Yan Luoxi wandering abroad surfaced in his mind, he couldn't help but recall where Ni Xuanyi might have gone to. He rubbed his temples in frustration.
Matters of marriage are predestined by fate; one cannot choose when or whom they meet and fall in love with. No one has the power to set a deadline for emotions—when it's time for them to come together, they will, and when it's time for them to part ways, no one can hold onto them.
After speaking with his brother, An Li immediately started preparing materials related to wind energy generation and swiftly boarded an international flight that night. Before leaving, he had a farewell dinner with Ming Zixi and several close friends.
Ming Zixi was relieved when he saw how An Li was willing to start afresh; it lifted a weight off his mind. After An Li left for abroad, Ming Zixi also flew back to the capital city along with Wu Tiantian. Their period of joint misdeeds over half a year finally came to an end.
Lulu was unknowingly abandoned by Li An silently.
She didn't have Li An's phone number and dared not go to the Li family to find him. Since Li An did not come to the Halfway Hill Club, she had no other choice but to wait.
When she found out from other young masters that Li An had flown abroad without a set return date, it was like being struck by five thunderbolts. She originally thought that with her looks and intelligence, she would eventually make Li An develop feelings for her. Even if she couldn't marry into the Li family in the future, becoming his mistress would be acceptable.
She never expected this man to be so heartless and treat her like air, leaving without a word.
The people at Halfway Hill Club knew that Lulu had fallen for the young master of the Li family at first sight. Other men found it difficult to even sleep with her once, yet she threw herself at the young master of the Li family. Now she had been dumped.
Lulu usually hogged all the attention from her sisters and acted aloof and high-minded. Recently, she was seen entering and exiting places with Li An in a very arrogant manner, thinking she had truly become an empress. Everyone was already jealous of her, and now that she's been dumped by Li An, everyone feels vindicated. Her situation has quickly become the subject of ridicule at Halfway Hill Club.
Shao Meizhu felt both relieved and disappointed about Li An's departure. She disliked Li An's arrogance and domineering behavior but was very reluctant when he suddenly disappeared. She couldn't help but secretly regret informing Brother Li Yi, as maybe then he wouldn't have scolded Li An or sent him abroad.
Even if Li An had a thousand faults before, he was at least within her sight. Now that Li An has gone so far away and her brother is not at home, what reason does she have to get close to Li An again!
Thinking about getting closer to Li An made Shao Meizhu remember her own brother. She only now noticed that she hadn't seen her brother for many days. After the argument with Li An on that day, he disappeared without a trace. Initially, she thought her brother was just sulking and going out to play, but after so long without returning, something seemed off!
While things were in turmoil at home, Shao Junhe's life was thriving. Despite Yan Luoxi still treating him coldly as before, not uttering a word, he felt incredibly happy.
This small town was perfect for living in—it was clean, peaceful, and beautiful. Summer was undoubtedly the most beautiful season here; the sun would rise early every day, shining through windows to wake everyone up, lingering late into the night as well, giving Shao Junhe ample time each day to be with Yan Luoxi.
At first, when Yan Luoxi fell ill, she was willing to take her medicine. But after seeing that it had no effect, she simply gave up on taking it altogether. Shao Junhe had no way of dealing with Yan Luoxi; he couldn't do anything about her stubbornness either.
Seeing Yan Luoxi refusing to take medication, Shao Junhe tried to compensate by providing nutritional supplements through food. As soon as he heard that any particular ingredient was beneficial for Yan Luoxi’s health, he would go out of his way to procure it and coax her into eating.
During these days, Shao Junhe took care of Yan Luoxi with meticulous attention, treating her like a princess. Yet, Yan Luoxi continued to ignore him, becoming increasingly silent and reticent.anted to return to the Li family or face those people again, not even Shao Junhe. She wished that Li An would give her an idyllic sanctuary where she could stay forever and hide like a ostrich.But rea...
