Song Zhixing was the first to come to her senses and hurriedly pulled Tang Yu's hand away from her face. She could be generous in front of anyone, but she could never be generous in front of her aunt.
Li Hanyan's eyes swept over the two of them, and she reluctantly suppressed her sadness. After a while, she walked towards them, "Tang Yu, can I talk to you alone?"
Tang Yu lowered his head and told Song Zhixing, "Sit here and wait for me. I'll be back soon."
"Yeah." Song Zhixing didn't ask anything, just nodded obediently.
Tang Yu and Li Hanyan sat down face to face at a small table in the waiting room. Li Hanyan pushed the passport in front of him. Tang Yu opened it and took a look, then closed it and put it aside, looking at her gratefully, "Thank you. I hope I didn't cause you any trouble."
Li Hanyan smiled bitterly, "You can imagine how angry my dad is, but I can't care about that anymore."
At this point, Li Hanyan took a deep breath and looked up at him, "Tang Yu, I have conditions."
"you say."
Li Hanyan looked at him solemnly, "No matter what happens in the future, or what the Li family will become, please help the Li family in the end."
Tang Yu looked at Li Hanyan with a deep expression, as if trying to understand the meaning of her words. Li Hanyan added: "Even if it's for Xingxing's sake, it's fine. No matter how much Xingxing loves you, she is still a member of our Li family."
At this moment, the airport broadcast sounded, urging passengers to board the plane.
Tang Yu took the passport in his hand and said, "Okay, the deal is done."
"Thank you." Li Hanyan smiled faintly.
After Mr. Tang Yu nodded, he stood up.
"Tang Yu." Li Hanyan looked at the figure and finally couldn't help but called him reluctantly. When Tang Yu paused and turned around to look at her, she belatedly put away the complicated emotions on her face. Swallowing the bitterness in her throat, she forced a smile at him, "Be good to Xingxing."
He nodded: "I will."
"Can you ask Xingxing to come over for a moment? I want to talk to her."
Tang Yu glanced at the time and said, "Don't take too long."
"I know."
———
Li Hanyan was stunned as she watched Tang Yu walk towards Song Zhixing step by step. In this man's eyes, there was only that 18-year-old girl.
She smiled bitterly, feeling empty inside.
For the first time, I envied someone so much.
She, Li Hanyan, had always been a standout among girls since she was little, and most people envied her. But today, she truly envied Xingxing.
"Aunt." Song Zhixing came over. She felt a little uncomfortable in front of Li Hanyan. She sat down in front of her. "Grandpa..."
"Don't worry, I'll take care of your grandpa."
"I am worried about his health..."
"He has always been in poor health. He has other problems. It has nothing to do with your situation. You don't have to blame yourself too much. Besides, birth, aging, illness and death are the laws of nature. No one can control them. Just let it go."
Song Zhixing sighed, "Grandpa will definitely be very angry if I run away secretly this time."
"I don't really agree with him putting you under house arrest." Li Hanyan glanced in Tang Yu's direction, "I know this won't change Tang Yu's mind at all."
"Okay, let's not talk about this. We are running out of time." Li Hanyan took a deep breath and adjusted her mood. She sounded much more relaxed. She spread her hands in front of Song Zhixing. Song Zhixing looked at her in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"Where's the necklace?"
"Um?"
"I returned your necklace last time." Seeing that Song Zhixing still didn't understand, Li Hanyan raised the corners of her lips and said, "I regret it now. Maybe I have developed feelings for the necklace, so I want it back. You are not so stingy that you don't want to return it to your aunt, right?"
Song Zhixing understood, his heart was beating violently, and his eyes were hot. He did not move for a long time, but raised his hand to wipe his wet eyes, muttering: "I have already thrown it away."
"Throw it away?" Li Hanyan frowned. "That's mine, how can you just throw it away like that?"
Seeing her nervous look, Song Zhixing couldn't help but burst into laughter, took out the necklace from his pocket and waved it in front of her. Li Hanyan realized that she was fooled by this little girl, and glared at her in anger, and took the necklace back, "You are getting bolder and bolder now, and you even dare to tease your aunt."
Song Zhixing just rubbed his nose and sat there grinning foolishly.
Li Hanyan looked at her with complicated eyes. Finally, she raised her lips and smiled, and put the necklace back on.
All the previous unhappiness seemed to disappear in this smile.
The haze that had been accumulating in Song Zhixing's heart also completely dissipated.
"Aunt, will we have a chance to meet again in the future?"
Li Hanyan smiled gently, "Could it be that since you are with Tang Yu, you don't plan to have an aunt anymore?"
"No, I don't mean that." Song Zhixing shook his head, and then sighed, "I'm just afraid that grandpa won't want me anymore."
"Your grandpa said he didn't want you, but he was just trying to scare you. In the future, you should come back more often. Besides..." Li Hanyan looked at Tang Yu, who was sitting not far from them, but his eyes were always fixed in their direction. It was obvious that he was always on guard against Xingxing getting wronged. Li Hanyan said enviously: "In the future, when you really get married, you can't not invite me and your grandpa to the wedding, right?"
When the word "marriage" was mentioned, Song Zhixing's heart was filled with ripples. The radio was urging him to come over. Li Hanyan stood up tactfully and said, "You guys should get on the plane quickly, otherwise it will be bad if you delay."
Tang Yu nodded and naturally took Song Zhixing's hand. He turned back to look at Du Hui and said, "Send Miss Li out."
Du Hui looked at Li Hanyan. Li Hanyan said "thank you" and followed Du Hui out.

Du Hui escorted Li Hanyan to the car. Li Hanyan lowered the car window and glanced at Du Hui: "Please take care of Xingxing for me."
"Miss Li, don't worry. This is certain." Du Hui said, "In fact, with the Second Master here, anyone else's care is unnecessary."
"That's right." Li Hanyan laughed awkwardly, and felt that her warning was a bit redundant. "Then I'm leaving."
Du Hui nodded, "See you again if there's a chance."
Li Hanyan nodded, rolled up the car window, and drove away. Du Hui watched the car go away before withdrawing his gaze. A smart woman knows how to let go and won't get too entangled and lose her original grace. Du Hui had a new opinion of her.

Song Zhixing was hugged by Tang Yu and walked towards the plane. The wind at the airport was so strong that it almost blew her away. She hugged Tang Yu tightly, curled up in his arms, and listened to his strong heartbeat. Suddenly she looked up and called him, "Tang Yu."
