Chapter 106: Taking Her Out for a Ride
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xu Wanwan walked out of the Li family home and stood alone at the intersection, her heart feeling suddenly crushed.
She slowly squatted down and hugged her shoulders as she cried out in pain.
Discomfort flooded her heart as if a valve had been opened, crashing on her in an overwhelming manner.
She cried for a long time until her eyes were red with tears. Only then did she gradually recover.
She squatted alone at the intersection, looking at the passing. Her heart felt even more empty.
She had come here after leaving the Xu family. Now that she had to leave this place, she realized that there was no place for her in this huge city.
Xu Wanwan broke down for a while before standing up and wiping her tears. She looked for the phone numbers of a few agencies on the internet.
Since she had moved out, she had to find a place to live. At the very least, she had to find a place to stay.
Just as she made the call, someone tapped her heavily on the back. Xu Wanwan was shocked and immediately hung up.
She turned around and bumped into Li Xuyi, who was wearing a helmet and a racing suit.
“Hey, you’re not at my brother’s house. What are you doing outside?”
Xu Wanwan was stunned and whispered, “I’m not staying at the Li family’s house anymore.”
“Really?” Li Xuyi’s tone rose in excitement. A hint of surprise appeared on his face at a speed visible to the naked eye. “Have you really thought it through and decided to leave my brother?”
“[told you, my brother isn’t suitable for you. You should have moved out of the Li family a long time ago.”
Xu Wanwan pursed her lips. “So even you think so…”
She wouldn’t have thought too much about these words if it were any other time.
But she had just left the Li family. After hearing these words, she was still a little disappointed.
It turned out that everyone felt that she didn’t deserve to stay in the Li family, much less be with Li Jingran.
Li Xuyi raised his eyebrows. “What else? My brother is already so old. Do you really want to be with him?”
“Besides, our family is not as simple as you think. Even if my brother wants to get married, he can only find someone of equal status.”
After hearing this, Xu Wanwan’s mood became even more depressed.
Li Xuyi also noticed that she was not very happy and his voice softened. “What’s wrong with you?”
In his eyes, Xu Wanwan had always been calm and rational. Back then, he had stolen her seat and misunderstood her. She had never been angry.
But today, the unhappiness in her eyes was overflowing.
Xu Wanwan took a deep breath. “I’m fine. You don’t have to worry.”
“Look at yourself in the mirror. You look like you’re about to cry. Why are you still trying to pretend that you’re fine?” Li Xuyi could not stand it any longer and directly exposed her. “Did you leave my brother’s house and could not get used to it?”
Xu Wanwan knew that Li’s current state was terrible, so she decided to stop pretending and nodded. “Yes, a little.”
Li Xuyi crossed his arms. “Then what do you plan to do next?”
“When you called me just now, I was looking for an apartment. I plan to rent an apartment.”
“Don’t rent an apartment anymore,” Li Xuyi said as he picked up the luggage in her hand and strode forward. “Stay at my place.”
Xu Wanwan was stunned. “Huh?”
She quickly followed him. “There’s no need to go through so much trouble. I’ve already contacted the agency to look at the houses later.”
Li Xuyi had already guessed that she wouldn’t agree so easily. He paused and said, “How about this? You stay at my place and pay me rent every month. I’ll give you a discount.”
Xu Wanwan was still a little puzzled. “This…”
Actually, she was still a little tempted. After all, Li Xuyi was also a son of Fate. If she stayed with him, she could even get lucky.
Li Xuyi said, “I’m currently short of funds. You can rent my house as a favor to me.”
When Xu Wanwan heard this, she felt that this would still work.
She compromised and said, “Alright then.”
“But I don’t have much money on hand. Can I pay the rent for three in one go?”
Li Xuyi made an OK gesture and strode forward. He said casually, “No rush.”
Xu Wanwan smiled slightly and got into the car with him.
With Li Xuyi’s help, she moved to a new place in half an hour.
The new place was very close to the school at a high-end residential area. The two of them took the elevator to the 26th floor.
Li Xuyi opened the door with one hand and put the things in the room with the other.
He bent down and found a pair of brand new slippers and threw them at Xu Wanwan’s feet. “Put them on.”
Xu Wanwan stood at the door. After changing her shoes, she looked around the room.
The decoration of the hall was very simple and cold. The entire house was grayish-white in style. As they walked in, there was a wall of cupboards with helmets, riding equipment, and some certificates of honor.
Li Xuyi slowly opened the door of the guest room. “You’ll be staying in this room from now on.”
Xu Wanwan turned around and moved everything into the guest room.
The guest room was very spacious. Other than the basic furniture, there were no other decorations. It was obvious that no one had lived here before.
Li Xuyi leaned lazily against the door. “If you don’t like this style of decoration, I’ll get someone to modify it tomorrow.”
“No need, no need.” Xu Wan put down her things and turned to smile at him. “I like it.”
“It’s good to live simply.”
Li Xuyi saw her smile at him and was momentarily absent-minded. When he came back to his senses, he said casually, “Hey, do you want to go out for a walk?”
A faint smile hung on the corner of Xu Wanwan’s mouth. She said patiently, “Where are we going?”
“Wait for me.”
Li Xuyi walked out. After a while, he walked over with two helmets and gave one to her.
“What’s this?”
“aren’t you in a bad mood? Let me take you for a ride.”
Xu Wanwan was a little tempted. “You guys play with cars. Isn’t It cool?”
“You’ll know if you go and take a look.” Li Xuyi raised his eyebrows and his thin lips twitched slightly.
Xu Wanwan used a little bit of strength to hold the helmet. She hesitated for a moment and suddenly wanted to indulge herself.
“Okay! Let’s go then.”
Li Xuyi smiled happily and helped Xu Wan put on his cycling gear. Then, he took her to the underground garage.
There were dozens of different racing cars parked in his underground garage. Xu Wanwan had never seen these before and was a little curious.
Li Xuyi casually drove a Kawasaki. He stretched his long legs and said in a casual tone, “Get in.”
Xu Wanwan retracted her curious gaze. After putting on her helmet, she stood on her tiptoes and struggled to get into his motorcycle.
Li Xuyi pursed his lips, tightened the accelerator, and drove the motorcycle out of the garage.
After the motorcycle entered the main road, its speed gradually accelerated. The sound of the wind was wantonly blowing in her ears.
‘The road in front of her became more and more spacious, and the trees on both sides of the road were left behind at the fastest speed. Xu Wanwan narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling the freedom and joy of the strong wind sweeping past.
She gradually put her worries to the back of her mind. She sat behind the motorcycle and seemed to understand why Li Xuyi loved riding a bike.
Not all lives should be fixed. Some people were born to embody adventure and challenges.
Xu Wanwan also seemed to understand that she did not have to rely on anyone to live, maybe she can rely on her own abilities to go further..
