Chapter 1656: But I Don’t Have Any Money
Li Jinnan carried his woman on his back as he headed toward the taxi queue . While in line, he spotted two familiar individuals .
Li Jinnan nudged Ye Youyou gently and said, “Look over there . ”
Ye Youyou raised her head to take a look . She immediately spotted Ye Qianqian .
By Ye Qianqian’s side stood a very tall man .
He was dressed simply but stylishly, and his facial features were pronounced .
His hair had been cleanly and tastefully cut short . His skin tone was fair . He looked handsome and attractive .
It was none other than Shen Zhilie .
Ye Youyou was very surprised and asked, “Why is Shen Zhilie here too? Was he on the same flight as us?”
“I don’t think so . ” Li Jinnan noticed the obvious curiosity burning in Ye Youyou’s eyes and teasingly asked, “Is there any chance that Shen Zhilie might become your brother-in-law again?”
Ye Youyou’s brows shot together when she heard that question .
The thought of Shen Zhilie being her sister’s husband made her heart feel funny .
“I… don’t think so . ”
–
Ye Qianqian had been in the midst of her afternoon nap when she received Shen Zhilie’s call .
When she answered the call, that damn bloke merely stated, “I reach Kingstown at 3 p . m . Remember to pick me up . ”
“No! Scram!”
“I can’t . I don’t have any money with me, and I’ve never taken the subway before . I won’t be able to go home . You have to come pick me up!”
“Go away!”
Ye Qianqian was infuriated and responded simply by switching off her phone . She hugged her pillow and went back to dreamland .
It was a clear and sunny day outside, and the sun’s rays were especially harsh .

With the air-conditioner in the room switched on, Ye Qianqian got a little too comfortable and lost track of time as she slept .
After arising from her nap and taking a shower, she suddenly recalled the fact that Shen Zhilie was returning to Kingstown .
She turned her cellphone on and realized that it was already 5 p . m .
Ye Qianqian bit her tongue . Just as she was about to give Shen Zhilie a call, an incoming call flashed on her phone .
It was, of course, Shen Zhilie .
Ye Qianqian was feeling a little guilty and answered weakly, “Hello…”
“Miss Ye! I’ve been standing in the airport for over an hour!”
“Well, take a taxi back!”
“I don’t have any money with me . ” Shen Zhilie’s tone was full of grievance . “My salary for this month is only coming in tomorrow . I was down to zero after buying my plane ticket back . ”
“F*ck! Aren’t you an heir of a wealthy family? Since when did you have to rely on your paycheck to make a living?” Ye Qianqian clearly didn’t believe him .
“Who told you I was an heir of a wealthy family? My father is a doctor, and my mother is a professor . What sort of an heir does that make me?” Shen Zhilie pitiably asked . His luggage was by his side as he sat in the airport’s air-conditioned VIP lounge and sipped coffee .
“Do you take me for an idiot? Your father is the head of the hospital, and that mother of yours is the Chairwoman of the Research Department! Even your brother is some medically inclined genius . Why are you telling me you don’t have enough money to take a taxi? I don’t believe you! Come back now or not . In any case, I’m not going to pick you up!”

“Could you not be this heartless? I really don’t have a single cent with me . Furthermore, I don’t know how to take the subway . I’ve never done it before!”
Ye Qianqian hardened her heart and was adamant . “I’m not coming!” She hung up the call right away .
Shen Zhilie had hit a brick wall and was feeling a little defeated .
A young lady from the VIP lounge walked over blushing and asked, “Mr . Shen, where do you need to go? I’m knocking off from work soon . You’re welcome to ride with me . ”
“What? But I don’t have any money!” Shen Zhilie lied without missing a beat .
“That’s fine . Let’s just add each other on WeChat and that can be your taxi fare . What do you say?”
“That’s not necessary . My girlfriend will be coming to pick me up . ”

There, struggling in an unknown world, utterly alone, she has a chance encounter with a young lady with a lovely voice. An encounter which would spark a chain of events that would irrevocably shape the world around them. That young lady’s name is Rosalind. This is her story. Disclaimer/Trigger Warnings (Please Read!) THIS WORK WILL MOST LIKELY CONTAIN BOTH HOMOSEXUAL AND INCESTUOUS UNDERTONES. IT WILL ALSO HAVE OCCASIONAL DESCRIPTIONS OF GORE THAT CAN GET REASONABLY GRAPHIC. PLEASE DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU ARE UNDER THE LEGAL AGE IN YOUR COUNTRY TO CONSUME SUCH CONTENT AS MENTIONED ABOVE, OR IF YOU ARE TRIGGERED BY HOMOSEXUALITY, GORE OR INCEST. Notes on Relation to Lily Ex Machina While this story is intended to be a sequel to my first work, Lily Ex Machina (LxM), I will be writing it in a manner that does not require readers to have read LxM to understand it. While having read LxM will likely enhance your enjoyment of this work(I hope), I am intending for this story to be able to stand on its own legs. As such, certain worldbuilding elements that I have expanded upon in LxM will likely be repeated in Seeking Elysium(SEly). As such, for newcomers, it should not be an issue to follow this story without prior knowledge of LxM. On the other hand, for my returning readers, I do beg your forgiveness for forcing you to read through stuff you already know. I’ll do my best to try and make it interesting, but no guarantees of success, I’m afraid. On the other hand, if you’re a newcomer to this series and enjoy SEly, I do hope you’ll take the time to read Lily Ex Machina as well, if only to get more information of the backstories of some characters. Update Schedule I will only post completed volumes on RRL; if you would like to follow the story while it is ongoing, you may do so at my website. I update twice a week, on Wednesdays and Sundays. Supporters on my Patreon get access to chapters a day earlier.
