The Baby I Lost Is Actually with My Ex-Husband!-Chapter 845: I’ve Already Grown Up

Li Junyan said, "Hmm."

He looked at Yinyin and said gently, "Yinyin, this is my aunt."

Despite feeling a bit awkward, Huo Zijin followed Li Junyan and called out "Aunt!"

Looking at Rong Xiaoyi, by age, she was definitely their peer, yet unexpectedly, she had to be called "aunt."

Rong Xiaoyi smiled.

She turned around and looked at Chu Yunhang: "Yunhang, come over, I’ll introduce you."

Chu Yunhang walked over with a smile and stood behind her.

Rong Xiaoyi said, "This is my boyfriend, Yunhang." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Chu Yunhang reached out his hand for a simple handshake with Li Junyan.

Immediately, his gaze fell on Huo Zijin, and he extended a hand toward her as well.

Huo Zijin hesitantly reached out, shook his hand briefly, and quickly let go.

Lin Jinmo said, "Everyone, don’t just stand there, have a seat!"

Finally, the group sat down.

In the private room.

The atmosphere was briefly awkward.

Lin Jinmo broke the silence first, asking Rong Xiaoyi some questions about studying abroad.

Rong Xiaoyi briefly talked about her experiences abroad over the years and how she met and fell in love with Chu Yunhang.

The more Huo Tinghan listened, the more his expression soured.

He looked at Lin Jinmo, who also appeared to be in the dark about why Rong Xiaoyi had such a boyfriend.

He knew that Huo Tinghan had also recognized exactly who this Chu Yunhang was.

Suddenly, Huo Tinghan interrupted Chu Yunhang’s self-promotion and turned to Rong Xiaoyi:

"Xiaoyi, do you know who he is?"

Huo Tinghan had always been straightforward, never hiding anything.

Chu Yunhang couldn’t help but look at him in some surprise.

Huo Tinghan said coldly, "In the study abroad circles, he’s famous as a rich playboy, poor in academics, always hitting the clubs, indulging in casual flings, and into drugs, basically everything."

Chu Yunhang’s expression changed slightly, yet he did not rush to deny it.

Rong Xiaoyi also looked at her boyfriend in surprise, "Drugs?"

Du Huaixi patiently explained, "Drugs, like marijuana."

Chu Yunhang said, "Marijuana is legal abroad; I haven’t broken any laws."

Huo Tinghan said, "You certainly seem quite confident."

Chu Yunhang said, "This brother seems to have something against me?"

Huo Tinghan said, "I don’t have anything against you; it’s just that your reputation is indeed bad."

Rong Xiaoyi suddenly said, "He promised me he wouldn’t touch those things anymore."

Everyone looked at her in surprise.

They originally thought that Rong Xiaoyi wasn’t aware of Chu Yunhang’s true nature, but her statement revealed she knew full well what kind of person he was.

Given she understood what a scoundrel he was, why would she still be willing to date him?

Li Junyan suddenly put his chopsticks down and said casually, "Does Dad know about your boyfriend?"

Rong Xiaoyi looked at him, "No, that’s why I’m bringing Yunhang back this time, hoping the two of them can meet."

Li Junyan said, "If he finds out what kind of person your boyfriend is, he’ll definitely be angry."

Rong Xiaoyi said, "I’ve grown up. I’m not a little girl anymore; he doesn’t need to worry about me."

Huo Tinghan seriously suspected that after studying abroad all those years, Rong Xiaoyi had been manipulated by this scoundrel; otherwise, why would she be so willing to be with him?

To be honest, Rong Xiaoyi isn’t lacking in terms of conditions.

But actually, they all could see that from a young age, Rong Xiaoyi was very insecure.

Her family wasn’t complete.

From a young age, she and Rong Ling had to rely on each other, living many years without a stable home.

Afterwards, Li Yufei temporarily took care of her for a period of time.

In the Li Family, Rong Xiaoyi always behaved very well. Later, when Rong Ling established his own business and married Li Yufei, naturally having children, it was at this point that Rong Xiaoyi gradually felt that she was becoming somewhat out of place with the family, like an outsider.

After Rong Ling married Li Yufei, most of his focus was on his career. At that time, his energy was limited; Rong Yin had just been born and was still small, but whenever he had time, Rong Ling would do his best to take care of his son while caring for her was sometimes too much for him, though he tried his best.

After all, one could say he was the only family she had, the only person she cared about.

Even so, in this family, Rong Xiaoyi was always inevitably neglected.

She was never close with Li Yufei either.

And being the same age as Li Junyan, she relied heavily on him for a long time, and he, naturally, replaced Rong Ling’s place in her heart.

But gradually, Li Junyan discovered that her dependence on him, as she grew older, was starting to change in nature.

After that, he began to distance himself from her.

However, this distance became a kind of hurt for her.

Rong Xiaoyi slowly realized that the feelings she had invested in him were wrong.

Thus, at the age of 20, she resolutely chose to go abroad.

After going abroad, Rong Ling would regularly transfer money to her account to cover her living expenses and tuition fees.

About a million every year.

But Rong Xiaoyi never touched a cent of that money.

In her mind, he was her brother, not her father, and he didn’t need to take on so much for her.

So, after settling abroad, she studied while working to support herself.

And Chu Yunhang was someone she met during her study abroad.

As to how they became a couple, Rong Xiaoyi never brought it up.

Lin Jinmo said, "Xiaoyi, it’s okay, don’t take it to heart, we’re just concerned about you."

Pausing, he looked at Chu Yunhang, "Don’t be upset either. Xiaoyi is our good friend, and since she has a boyfriend, of course, we’d be concerned."

Chu Yunhang said, "I just hope you wouldn’t bring up my past in front of Xiaoyi. We are doing well now and have a stable relationship. Your words make me feel like you’re trying to drive a wedge between us."

Huo Zijin curiously asked, "Aunt Xiaoyi, how did you two get together?"

Rong Xiaoyi smiled faintly, "He... pursued me."

Chu Yunhang said, "I fell in love with her at first sight and pursued her for a long time before she agreed. Being with Xiaoyi, I realized how much of a jerk I was in the past. It was after dating her that I started to change bit by bit. I hope someday I can become a better person, worthy of her."

Huo Tinghan remained silent.

Lin Jinmo nonchalantly said, "Hope you keep your word."

During a break from eating.

Rong Xiaoyi suddenly got up and went to the bathroom.

The atmosphere in the private room suddenly turned deathly silent again.

Everyone’s expressions were slightly complex.

Except for Huo Zijin.

She couldn’t care less what kind of person Chu Yunhang was; all she knew was that the food at this restaurant was delicious, and even though she was already half full, she didn’t stop eating.
