Spring River Chasing the Moon

Xu Zhiye had been accompanying his grandfather abroad for some time due to his grandfather's health, and only recently returned to China.

Xu Zhiye's grandfather Yan Lei went abroad for recuperation in his early years due to poor health, and was waiting for a suitable opportunity for surgery.

Some time ago, Xu's mother and her team finally found a top foreign expert who was willing to perform surgery on Yan Lei. Xu Zhi also rushed abroad overnight and stayed with his grandfather until the operation was successful.

Now that Xu Zhiye's grandfather has recovered from the operation, the first thing he wants to do is fly back to China and return to his home in South City with his wife.

However, because the house Yan Lei and his family had lived in before had not been occupied for a long time, although someone cleaned it on time, there were too many things that needed to be replaced, so they are now living in Xu Zhiye's house, which is also convenient for Xu Zhiye and his family to take care of them.

When Lin Yi arrived at Xu Zhiye's house, Xu's father and mother had just sent off a group of guests.

"Xiao Yi is here."

Xu Zhiye's mother Yan Zi greeted Lin Yi with a smile.

Lin Yi's mother and Xu Zhiye's father are cousins, so he calls Xu's father uncle, and Xu Zhiye's mother is his aunt.

"Uncle and aunt, is Zhi also at home?"

Yan Zi nodded and pointed upstairs, "He's in his room, you go up."

"Then I'll go upstairs, aunt."

After saying that, Lin Yi strode towards Xu Zhiye's room.

“Guess who I met today?”

Lin Yi suddenly opened the door, trying to scare Xu Zhiye, but the other party not only did not react, he even looked at him as if he was a fool. His hands that were assembling the model were not affected at all and continued to assemble it.

Lin Yi sighed and looked at Xu Zhi with great sorrow.

"I'm so sad that you're looking at me like that."

Xu Zhiye continued to remain indifferent. Lin Yi felt that he always suffered a setback in front of Xu Zhiye, so he tried to provoke him.

"Just keep looking like this forever. I think whoever likes you will be in trouble. It's not fun at all."

Xu Zhi was too lazy to pay attention to him. He was used to Lin Yi putting on a big show in front of him every time.

"You really don't want to know who I just ran into at the mall?"

Xu Zhiye didn't even raise his eyelids and continued to busy himself with his own things.

Lin Yi didn't care whether he heard it or not and continued talking to himself.

"Then little Luo Youyou must be very sad. She was so looking forward to a reply from brother Zhiye, but to her surprise, he didn't want to pay any attention to her at all."

When he heard Luo Youyou's name, Xu Zhiye stopped his hand and looked up at Lin Yi beside him, feeling that what he said was not credible.

"Luo Youyou?"

Xu Zhi also suspected that Lin Yi was lying to him and trying to arouse his interest.

Lin Yi knew him too well, and Xu Zhiye knew what he was thinking just by looking at him.

"What's with that look in your eyes? Do I really need to lie to you about this?"

"She just gave me her contact information and wants you to contact her."

Seeing that Lin Yi was confused, Xu Zhi started to do what he was doing again.

"Oh, then tell me how you met her?"

Seeing Xu Zhiye's calm expression, Lin Yi really gave in.

He recounted in detail his encounter with Luo Youyou in the mall and everything they said.

"So the house she drew was her grandfather's house. So it's possible that he was your grandfather's neighbor."

Xu Zhi had actually guessed something before going abroad, but he didn't expect that he hadn't found her yet because of his grandfather's health reasons and had to go abroad and hadn't returned until now.

"Where's the contact information?" Xu Zhi also took the initiative to speak.

Lin Yi's teasing thoughts came back.

"Oh, you're anxious now. Didn't you just ignore me? I can give you my contact information, but what good does it do me?"

As he spoke, Lin Yi swaggered and sat down on Xu Zhiye's bed, crossing his legs, as if waiting for Xu Zhiye to give him a satisfactory answer.

When it comes to how to control Lin Yi, Xu Zhiye is undoubtedly the most successful one in the world.

Looking at Lin Yi's arrogant look, Xu Zhi didn't say anything, but just lowered his head and continued to assemble his model.

Seeing that Xu Zhiye ignored him, Lin Yi knew that he was under his control again. He almost forgot that not only did he understand Xu Zhiye, but Xu Zhiye also knew Lin Yi's character very well. It was nothing new to Xu Zhiye.

"Okay, okay, I have nothing to do, so I'm begging you, okay?"

As he spoke, Lin Yi picked up a pen and a piece of paper from the desk and wrote down Luo Youyou's home phone number.

"I told her I'll give you her contact information tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, so take your time and think it over carefully."

Xu Zhi also looked at the number on the paper, paused for a moment, and returned to normal after a while.

Seeing him like this, Lin Yi was very anxious.

"Hey, what do you think? Do you want to see her? Or are you not interested?"

"I saw you run out the moment you saw the painting that day, so I asked the kid for his contact information. Is this your reaction?"

Xu Zhiye didn't know what to feel. Maybe he thought that with the painting, he would be able to find Luo Youyou eventually. It was just a matter of time. Now that he had the contact information, he was happy, but also a little hesitant.

The number Lin Yi got from Luo Youyou proved that Luo Youyou wanted him to contact her. It was one thing for him to take the initiative to contact her, but it was another thing for the other party to expect his contact. What Xu Zhi was most afraid of was having expectations.

Lin Yi looked at Xu Zhiye and understood what he was thinking.

Since Xu Zhi returned to the Xu family, everything has been strictly managed in a military manner. No matter what he does, it seems that he is moving forward step by step on the set path.

But he was afraid of not being able to meet other people's expectations, and was often worried about gains and losses. However, Xu Zhi never showed it and pretended to be strong in front of everyone.

"I'm telling you not to overthink it. At most, we're just friends. If you get along, we can just be friends. I don't quite understand why you're interested in a four or five-year-old kid, but since you're interested, don't worry about it. Enjoying life in the moment is more important than anything else."

Lin Yi felt sorry for Xu Zhiye. Others only saw him as the only heir of the Xu family, precious and honorable. But Lin Yi knew how hard it was and how sensitive he was inside, and he also needed comfort from others. If Luo Youyou could make Xu Zhiye feel different emotions, he would definitely help them connect.

"I know."

Xu Zhi also understood that Lin Yi did this for himself.

"Thank you."

Xu Zhi also looked up at Lin Yi, suddenly becoming extremely serious.

"No, don't be like this. Every time you get serious, nothing good happens."

Although he felt sad, sometimes Xu Zhi would cheat him without mercy, and Lin Yi felt a little panicked.

Xu Zhi also smiled and said, "You think too much. I really just want to thank you."

-

Late at night, Xu Zhi also sat at the desk looking at the painting and the contact number that Lin Yi brought.

All that was in his mind was Luo Youyou's every move in Haicheng. Thinking of her, Xu Zhiye couldn't help but smile.

Xu Zhi also understood that Luo Youyou seemed like an "alien" who had escaped from his predetermined life. She was lively, cute, and full of vitality, which were things he did not have.

The next day, Xu Zhi finished his breakfast, rested for a while, and then went to the study.

I pressed the number that I had memorized.

The phone is connecting, "beep...beep...beep..."

Xu Zhiye was extremely nervous. He had never been so looking forward to something happening.

Finally, a familiar voice sounded from the other end of the phone.

"Hello, who are you?"
