Chapter 1150: Chapter 1177: Reluctant Farewell

These past few days, Nianyang had been playing way too hard and had almost forgotten that Li Tingyan was leaving.

So when she opened her eyes and found no trace of the man beside her, she was dazed for a few seconds, not reacting, just wondering where he’d gone.

Then she saw the breakfast still steaming on the table next to her—soup dumplings, milk, and eggs—that was what Li Tingyan had ordered for her before he left.

She didn’t think much of it, assuming Li Tingyan had just gone to the bathroom, so she got out of bed to eat, but the moment she looked down she saw a slip of paper pressed under the glass of milk.

[Wifey, I’ve left. Take good care of yourself. If anything comes up, write to me.]

The expression on Nianyang’s face froze, and her eyes instantly reddened with anger.

He left. He actually left. Without even saying a word, he just dumped her alone in a strange hotel and walked off like that. That bastard!

Nianyang didn’t even comb her hair; she rushed out in a panic, only to see a man at the door. The man saw her and immediately said, "Saozi, you’re awake. I’m the assistant the boss sent to take you back to Pingjing."

Nianyang asked blankly, "When did Li Tingyan leave?"

"Just an hour ago." The assistant scratched the back of his head. "President Li’s flight is at nine in the morning. It’s eight now—there’s still an hour before takeoff. He just went back to the Escort Agency to pack his things."

There was still an hour.

Nianyang’s eyes lit up and she immediately said, "Hurry, take me to the airport."

This time, Li Tingyan was only taking Sheng Feng and Xiao Wu with him to Beijiang. They were using a special channel, and since it wasn’t time for boarding yet, they were in the waiting lounge, checking their luggage piece by piece.

Beijiang had everything they needed anyway, so there was no need to bring much—mainly just a laptop and a few sets of clothes.

When Nianyang rushed into the airport, the first thing she saw from afar was that tall, straight figure among the crowd.

"Li Tingyan."

She heard herself call out in a sharp voice, the sound piercingly clear, drawing the attention of everyone around.

When Li Tingyan heard Nianyang’s voice, he thought he’d been missing his wife so much that he was hallucinating. He froze for several seconds, and only when Nianyang called him again—

—did he suddenly snap back and turn around, seeing his wife pushing her way through the stream of people, trying her best to run toward him.

Her slender body was jostled by the crowd, every step she took looked difficult, but she still didn’t stop moving.

Li Tingyan’s heart tightened painfully, afraid she’d fall. He dropped his luggage and ran over, pulling Nianyang over to a quieter spot off to the side, frowning as he said, "Nini, who told you to run so fast? What if you fell?"

Nianyang glared at him, her words choked with sobs. "You’re leaving me behind again. You didn’t even say goodbye. Li Tingyan, you’re going to drive me mad."

Li Tingyan pulled Nianyang into his arms. "Nini, there are too many people here. You shouldn’t have come; you should be in the hotel sleeping. Don’t be sad. A year or so will pass very quickly. We’ll be able to see each other again soon."

"You’re lying to me again. A year is so long." Nianyang broke down crying. "Li Tingyan, I can’t bear to let you go, I really can’t. I’ve already forgiven you, I just can’t bear it. I don’t want you to leave."

Hearing her, Li Tingyan felt like his heart was shattering. How could there be a wife this tormenting? Just by hugging him like this and crying softly twice, he felt like he could throw his life away in an instant. His eyes burned red with the ache...
