Reborn: Instead of Chasing the School Beauty, I Chased Her Mother

Mature women are often very charming, and a top-quality mature woman like Gu Wanzhou is no exception.

That day, when she was massaging Li Zhiyan's legs, she couldn't control herself.

"Mom."

At this moment, Yu Sisi walked in from outside.

"Why do I feel like you're a bit restless? Did something happen to you?"

"What could be bothering me? Nothing."

Looking at her daughter, Gu Wanzhou always had the feeling that one day her daughter would regret it.

"Nothing. I just have some things on my mind."

...

That evening, when Li Zhiyan returned home, Zhou Rongrong had already prepared a table full of dishes waiting for him.

"Son, you seem to be in a good mood."

Zhou Rongrong looked at her precious son and always felt that he had changed from before, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was different.

"It might be because I've made some money."

The Li Zhiyan of the past was mediocre, lacking confidence, barely noticeable wherever he went.

But now, not only did he have savings of 80,000 yuan at the age of 18, but he also possessed some special skills.

How could he not be in a good mood?

"Mom, when I've saved enough money, I will definitely buy you a new house, and we will move out of this rental."

"Okay, good son, then Mom will wait for you to buy a new house."

Zhou Rongrong served Li Zhiyan the dishes, feeling in her heart that it was completely unlikely, yet she did not deter his enthusiasm. To make the best out of a difficult situation, having aspirations was still a good thing.

"Mom, you're getting more and more beautiful."

Looking at his beautiful mother in front of him, Li Zhiyan couldn't help but praise her.

To a mama's boy, his mother is the most beautiful woman in his heart.

"You child."

"How come you're suddenly so smooth-talking now."

"It's as if you've become a different person."

"Mom, I'm just telling the truth."

Looking at her son, who had grown up a lot, Zhou Rongrong suddenly felt hopeful for the future.

"By the way, Mom, I won't be coming home for dinner tomorrow night. I'll be back late."

Zhou Rongrong looked at her son with some curiosity. Could it be that this boy was in love? That would be good; finding a partner is quite troublesome for single-parent families. An early start in dating could perhaps smooth out the road to marriage.

"Then be safe, Xiao Yan. If you're dating someone, you need to treat the girl well."

Li Zhiyan felt somewhat helpless; everyone was teaching men to be good to girls.

As a result, numerous girls took for granted the men's efforts and treated themselves as entitled princesses.

"Mom, what are your thoughts on a relationship between an older woman and a younger man?"

"No, it should be a mother-son type of romance. Like, if I found a girlfriend who's 20 years older than me, would you accept it?"

Li Zhiyan indeed asked for a woman's sake.

However, not a girl, but a stunning 41-year-old mature woman.

"Ah?"

Zhou Rongrong was also somewhat stunned. What was up with this kid? Did he not like girls his own age?

"Son, do you not like girls your age?"

"A bit, but I was just asking to see if you could accept a relationship with a 20-year age difference."

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Rongrong said earnestly, "Son, I don't know what kind of girl you will like in the future, but whatever your choice, Mom will support you."

"You can be sure of that."

"Even if it's someone close to Mom's age, I would agree. Nothing is more important than the happiness of my precious son."

Hearing her mother's understanding words, Li Zhiyan felt very touched in his heart.

"Mom, you're so kind, you can even accept something like this."

"What's there to not accept? I'm not an antique, son. Just do what you want without worry, I'll always have your back."

After patting Li Zhiyan on the head, Zhou Rongrong also had complicated thoughts in her heart.

This kid, he wouldn't really find a girlfriend nearly his mother's age, would he?

Forget it, no use thinking too much. As long as my son is happy, anything goes.

…

The next day, Li Zhiyan spent another day in the internet café with Li Shiyu, grinding Dungeon Fighter Online and CrossFire.

During this time, he would occasionally check the progress of his system's skill learning.

The Wimpy System truly lived up to its name; the progress bar moved as if it was the last loading segment of CrossFire.

Fortunately, by the afternoon, the Wimpy System had finally managed to complete the skill learning.

In the evening, after calculating the time,

Li Zhiyan arrived early at the park that the system had prompted him to go to.

In the park, he tried swinging his fist, and indeed, he was no longer the wimpy high schooler he once was.

Instead, he had become a true tough guy, capable of taking on five opponents single-handedly.

"The system is still powerful, eh? It can let me learn such skills directly. So in the future, is it possible that I could learn the talents of Lao Ai and Ji Xiaolan?"

It seemed not entirely out of the realm of possibility. Having been reborn, Li Zhiyan also wanted to become King of the Wheel.

Sure enough, before long, he saw Gu Wanzhou, dressed in black business attire, teamed with flesh-colored stockings and high heels, arriving at the park.

"Aunt Gu really likes this kind of outfit, huh."

As Li Zhiyan pondered in his heart, Gu Wanzhou had already approached him from not far away.

Li Zhiyan could tell that Aunt Gu seemed to have a worried look on her face.

Why was that...

Could it be because of his confession to her?

Li Zhiyan kept thinking in his heart, and time was getting closer and closer to 7:14 pm.

The park had filled with quite a number of people. Once Gu Wanzhou arrived at the gazebo, she stared blankly at the fish jumping out of the artificial lake's water.

She really had never imagined that one day an 18-year-old boy would confess his love to her.

And yet, he was so sincere to her.

Gu Wanzhou herself liked Li Zhiyan quite a lot, but not in the romantic sense; it was more an adult's appreciation for a child. Precisely because of this, she had thought of taking him as a godson.

But he persisted in wanting to be with her. Reject him?

She couldn't bear to hurt such a good kid, yet being together with him was an impossibility.

Not just because he was only 18 years old and she was 23 years his senior,

but also because he had once pursued her daughter Yu Sisi.

All these factors doomed a non-starter between them.

What was she to do? As her relationship with him grew closer, the handling of this matter would surely become more and more troublesome in the future.

Lost in thought, Gu Wanzhou spaced out.

This kid really was both endearing and exasperating.

"That little rascal... how dare he steal a kiss from me."

Thinking back to that excessive incident,

Gu Wanzhou's face heated up again.

Until a guy with dyed yellow hair appeared before her.

"Hey, beauty, let's add each other on QQ, I feel a connection with you."

Looking at the more than one-meter-eight tall guy with yellow hair and the deserted surroundings, Gu Wanzhou started feeling panicked.
