Chapter 819: Chapter 820 No Matter What, Don’t Talk About Giving Up

"It’s true though, calling 3 a.m. early morning, please!" Ye Xiyao squinted her eyes and smiled. Not wanting to see Li Changlin angry, she always felt a bit disheartened, so she reached out, grabbed Li Changlin’s arm, and gently shook it, "Brother Changlin, Xiyao knows she’s wrong, and she promises not to do it again in the future!"

"That’s what you said, and if there’s a next time, Brother Changlin will really get angry!" When Ye Xiyao acted coquettishly with him, Li Changlin just didn’t know what to do.

However, it was essential to show some authority, even if it had to be feigned. Somehow, he had to impress this little woman!

"I know, I know, Xiyao promises Brother Changlin!" Seeing a hint of a smile on Li Changlin’s face, Ye Xiyao knew he wasn’t angry anymore, so she took his hand and placed it on her fragrant lips, giving it a gentle kiss.

"You, you, I just don’t know how to be angry with you!" Taking advantage, Li Changlin gently caressed Ye Xiyao’s pretty face, his own expression one of doting fondness.

Ye Xiyao squinted her eyes, clearly enjoying the moment, and neither of them brought up Ye Xiyao’s illness. They both knew it was a tough nut to crack.

Seeing how tender Li Changlin was with Ye Xiyao, Zhong Jianping felt awkward beside them. At that moment, she was restless whether sitting or standing, watching the two with a sense of gloom and recalling Ye Zhiwen, who was far away in Huacheng.

Ever since Chen Zhengxin arranged for Ye Zhiwen to go to Huacheng, their relationship had become long-distance. Although they talked on the phone every day, it was not as comforting as holding hands.

Several times, Zhong Jianping had considered quitting her job to be with Ye Zhiwen in Huacheng, but each time she made up her mind, the thought of the salary from the studio made her hesitate.

Speaking frankly, Ye Xiyao’s studio was essentially just a branch office. Now that she had found Li Changlin, she no longer wanted to run around like before. Establishing a studio in Nanfu Province, her arrangements for work and discussions with major collaborators became very convenient.

Initially, Ye Xiyao planned to set up the studio in Jincheng. However, after careful consideration of Li Changlin’s emerging career prospects, she suspected that he might move to the provincial capital before long, so she finally decided to locate the studio there.

This decision, however, made Ye Xiyao’s job more troublesome before Li Changlin arrived in the capital.

But Ye Xiyao didn’t mind these troubles just to accommodate Li Changlin.

Nevertheless, this situation inadvertently distressed Zhong Jianping.

On one hand, she wanted to be with the man she loved, and on the other, she didn’t want to give up a well-paying job so easily.

Zhong Jianping wasn’t highly educated; after high school, due to her family’s financial constraints, she had to forego university.

With her current qualifications, if she were to resign from Ye Xiyao’s studio, she certainly wouldn’t be able to secure such a generous salary elsewhere.

Therefore, Zhong Jianping felt very conflicted, especially since staying at the studio also afforded her the chance to often see her idol.

In such circumstances, the choice became even harder for Zhong Jianping to make.

Yet she was ultimately sensible, not rushing her decision, she continued to perform her work duties neatly and efficiently.

Relative to Zhong Jianping’s work, these tasks were actually quite simple.

Every day she only had to send and receive emails or make a few calls to collaborate with partners. Of course, sometimes she might also act as a salesperson, sending messages or faxes with information to some large enterprises.

These matters, when spoken of, can seem complicated, but in reality, when actually handled, they’re quite simple and don’t bring about any sense of pressure.

But now, she truly felt the pressure.

Seeing the Heavenly Queen superstar being so intimate with a mere live streamer, it would be false to say Zhong Jianping wasn’t shocked. However, as she was just a minor employee under Ye Xiyao, she didn’t dare express her astonishment.

With no other option, Zhong Jianping turned to pick up the electric kettle from the table nearby and went to the bathroom to fetch water.

Zhong Jianping’s actions, however, awakened the two of them.

Only then did they realize that there was a third party in the room besides themselves.

How frustrating, what a mood killer!

Li Changlin gave an awkward smile. If Zhong Jianping knew that both of them considered her a third party, he wondered what kind of expression would be on her face.

"Have you taken your medicine?" Li Changlin turned to look, saw that Zhong Jianping had gone for water, and quietly asked.

Ye Xiyao nodded, softly saying that she had just taken her medicine.

Even before anything had happened, Ye Xiyao had always been punctual with her medication.

She knew her own condition and having finally found Brother Changlin, Ye Xiyao certainly didn’t want to have any mishaps; she hoped to spend more time with Brother Changlin!

Though she was suffering from a congenital terminal illness with a fate of not living past twenty-four, Ye Xiyao had never given up.

She had always been searching for ancient prescriptions to cure her illness, and after learning from the Moonlight Messenger that there was an Ice Soul Snow Lotus that could potentially cure her, hope grew in her heart.

However, this hope had always been a luxury because Ye Xiyao understood in her heart that the Ice Soul Snow Lotus, this precious treasure, simply didn’t exist in Xuanyuan Country, let alone the entire Shenlong Continent.

According to the Moonlight Messenger, on a planet called Earth, millions of trillions of light-years away from the Shenlong Continent, that’s where the Ice Soul Snow Lotus had once appeared.

Back then, it was because of this legend that her Lame Grandpa, Ye Shenhao, resolutely embarked on a journey to Earth.

However, Ye Xiyao also understood that even if Lame Grandpa one day did find the legendary Ice Soul Snow Lotus, he probably would have no way to bring it back to Shenlong Continent.

After all, Earth was far, far too distant from Shenlong Continent!

As for Ye Xiyao’s thoughts, Li Changlin had made some guesses, but he had never mentioned that the Ice Soul Snow Lotus might exist within the God Tycoon Cultivation System to Ye Xiyao.

The news was just too unbelievable, and besides, Li Changlin would find it difficult to explain where the God Tycoon Cultivation System came from.

He wasn’t an idiot; upon entering the Different World and encountering the Moonlight Messenger, he learned of Lame Grandpa’s name from the Messenger’s lips. When Li Changlin heard the name Ye Haoshen, he was indeed quite shaken.
