Chapter 865: Chapter 861: Ye Fan’s Determination

Ye Fan hardly listened to Zhuo Junwu’s words of comfort; he forlornly put down the phone, his whole body weakly leaning against the back of the sofa.

The Pangu Mystic Realm is so vast, more than ten thousand times the surface area of Earth. How should he search for her?

He painfully grasped his hair with both hands, yet the moments he once shared with Li Zhaojun continuously replayed like a film in his mind.

“Remember, although we have our marriage certificate, still! You live your life, I’ll live mine, we won’t interfere with each other.”

“I completely agree with this suggestion.”

At the beginning, they couldn’t stand each other and refused to accept a loveless marriage.

“Ye Fan, the impression you give me is terrible: lazy, impetuous, superficial, immature, rash! I hope you don’t give me any worse impressions!…”

Once, she had deep misunderstandings about him.

He, too, had deep misunderstandings about her, believing she was arrogant and looked down on others, self-righteous.

At one point, she even angrily proposed divorce, and he also moved out of the villa in anger.

Later, she suddenly realized that she misunderstood him, causing him wrongs and hurt, regretted it deeply, and began to pursue him instead.

He could never forget the nights when his mother Qiao Feixuan came to Hua Hai City, and they were forced to share a bed for four consecutive nights.

How beautiful she was, sitting at her vanity brushing her hair and applying skincare after a shower, dressed in a sexy silk nightdress.

With the lights off, the two lay on the same bed, covered by different quilts, turned to face each other, chatting until they unknowingly fell asleep. By dawn, they suddenly found themselves close together.

Finally, they ended up under the same quilt. In the blankets, he smelled her enchanting fragrance and heard her shyly and tenderly call in his ear for the first time: “Husband…”

In front of outsiders, she was the shrewd and capable chairwoman and president of a group with a market value close to a billion, cold and noble, the number one beauty in Hua Hai City, making countless people dare not look her directly in the eye, let alone climb higher. Yet she willingly let him do many shameful things that made one want to dig a hole to hide in, on her pristine and beautiful body.

“I’m cold, can you hold me tighter?” That day, she shielded him from a bullet, not only hit by a bullet but also poisoned, her life hanging by a thread, she appealed to him.

He heart-wrenchingly hugged her tight, yet in his arms she said to him: “Actually, I don’t like you, I even hate you. You embarrass me, humiliate me. I am the number one beauty in Hua Hai City, the chairwoman and president of the Emali Group, courted by countless men since childhood, but you’ve made me flatter you instead, and you still don’t appreciate it. I hate you so much. The reason I refuse to divorce you is that I can’t survive without the Ye family’s influence. I only have hatred and disgust for you, not love, understand?”

When she realized she couldn’t deceive him, she gave a bitter smile, unwillingly said: “You’re truly no fool. Just hate that I cannot grow old with you in this life…”

“Just hate that I cannot grow old with you in this life…” Ye Fan murmured to himself, “Zhao Jun, why did you leave, abandoning everything to pursue the elusive path of immortality?”

“No! This isn’t your true intention, you’re completely controlled by this evil skill!”

“Zhao Jun, no matter how vast the Pangu Mystic Realm is, I will definitely bring you back!”

Thinking of this, Ye Fan suddenly perked up, his tiger-like eyes shooting out a determined gaze, fists clenched, he stood up…

More than half an hour later, Ye Fan drove to the parking lot in front of the red-walled little building, then carrying two bags of fruit, walked alone towards the red-walled little building.

Looking at the red-walled little building, Ye Fan couldn’t help but recall the scenes of visiting with Li Zhaojun in the past.

He held her somewhat cool, tender, boneless little hand, smelling the faint and enchanting fragrance on her as they walked from the second-floor staircase along the corridor to the door of Mr. Li’s room.

They once pretended, unwilling, once sincere, fingers interlocked.

After seventeen or eighteen days unseen, Mr. Li noticeably aged further, his body weakening day by day, already unable to move with a cane on his own.

The once commanding old hero was growing more withered. If he knew his only concern, his granddaughter, left Earth to pursue some elusive path of immortality, how heartbroken would he be?

After speaking with Ye Fan for a while, Mr. Li realized Li Zhaojun didn’t come and asked, “Xiao Fan, where’s Jun’er? Why didn’t she come with you to see this old man?”

“She went abroad for negotiations with a foreign company and hasn’t returned yet. Once she’s back, she’ll surely come to see you.” Ye Fan explained with the pre-prepared excuse.

Mr. Li showed no doubt, saying: “Oh, she went abroad for business negotiations. Haha, look at this old confused me, she told me before, and I completely forgot. Old, old, forgetting everything, muddling everything…”

Ye Fan was slightly surprised, could it be that Li Zhaojun also used this excuse before leaving?

After talking with Mr. Li for more than half an hour, Mr. Li soon ran out of energy, and Ye Fan helped him back to the bedroom to rest.

After attending to Mr. Li’s sleep, Ye Fan quietly left the bedroom and returned to the living room.

“Grandpa Liu, more than ten days ago, did Zhao Jun come to see Grandpa?” Ye Fan asked Liu Tiezhu.

Liu Tiezhu shook his head: “No. Jun’er only came with you last time.”

“Then why did Grandpa just say Zhao Jun told him she was going abroad for business?” Ye Fan asked, confused.

Liu Tiezhu sighed, saying: “The old chief is truly old, suffering from the usual elderly problems. Forgetful, muddle-headed, it’s unavoidable.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan felt a bit heavy-hearted and sighed.

Though birth, aging, illness, and death are natural human paths, when it happens to one’s family and those around, who can truly be open-minded?

Ye Fan stayed for another half an hour, learning about Mr. Li’s health situation from Liu Tiezhu, and then left by car.

After driving out of the military district compound, Ye Fan couldn’t decide whether to return to Mingde County or Yulin Bay Villa district immediately.

However, the next moment he recalled one thing: if Li Zhaojun left, does her mother Ning Huwen know?

Thinking of this, he immediately took out his phone to call Ning Huwen.

The phone rang a few times and connected.

“Xiao Fan.” Ning Huwen’s voice came through the phone, calm.

Ye Fan made his tone calm: “Mom, have you been well lately?”

“Haha, yes, yes, don’t worry, no need to worry about me.” Ning Huwen’s smiling voice came through the phone, “Is there anything you need?”

Ye Fan forced a laugh and said, “Nothing much, just calling to check if you’re okay.”

“Haha, really, you don’t need to worry about me. Besides, just a while ago, Jun’er came back to Forty-Nine City to see me?” Ning Huwen’s voice laughed.

Ye Fan responded with “Oh,” and then said a few more things about Ning Huwen taking care of herself and then ended the call.

“Sigh, even her mother is unaware. Her mother, who painstakingly raised her alone, relying completely on her in her later years. If her mother knew she left Earth and never returned, how much sadness would it bring?” Ye Fan couldn’t help thinking.

“No, Zhao Jun wouldn’t be so heartless, abandoning her most cherished kin; it’s all the fault of this magical skill!”

“Zhao Jun, no matter how difficult, I will definitely bring you back!”
