Chapter 1045: Chapter 1045

In the end, Endless was just too small a platform, and it could no longer accommodate someone of Li Changlin’s stature.

He wanted to quickly upgrade the System’s level, which meant he had to make a move away from his current platform.

Every day he delayed, Ye Xiyao could face more danger, and he couldn’t afford to hesitate even a moment longer.

"I have my reasons for leaving; after all, the Endless platform is just too small." Aside from the System, Li Changlin had no secrets from Lin Ruonan; he would tell her anything, as long as she was willing to know, he would not hold back.

"But, but our Lin Family owns shares in Endless. My aunt called me and asked me to keep you from leaving," Lin Ruonan understood Li Changlin, but Lin Qiao’en had given her a direct order.

Actually, whether Li Changlin left was not a major issue; after all, he was just one person. His departure would at most take away some gamers, resulting in not too severe a loss for Endless.

The main issue here definitely originated from Feixue’s end.

The former and current leaders of Feixue had somehow united, and if they decided to leave Endless, they would take all their streamers with them, along with a substantial number of players.

In that case, the impact would indeed be significant. Endless was already a second-tier platform; if it suddenly faced such a massive negative news story, it would be disastrous for them.

In fact, this disaster had already begun to brew. Since Yang Fei uploaded Zhong Kaiyu’s video to the internet in the early hours, many media outlets were reporting on it, putting Zhong Kaiyu and Endless live-streaming in a very passive position.

However, this was something that could be handled with public relations, which is why Endless and Lin Qiao’en hadn’t let Lin Ruonan know. This was also why no one realized the true importance of Li Changlin.

"Ruonan, I’ve already reached an agreement with the Brother’s Live platform, and in the future, the Feixue Legion will also merge into the legion I’m creating. I have no choice but to go!" Li Changlin couldn’t mention Ye Xiyao’s situation because then he would need to tell Lin Ruonan about the System.

It wasn’t that Li Changlin didn’t trust her; it’s just that the matter of the System was too significant. If Lin Ruonan accidentally leaked it, his future actions would become very difficult, and it might even impact the treatment for Ye Xiyao.

Therefore, Li Changlin could only use reasoning and facts to persuade Lin Ruonan, hoping she would understand his decision.

In fact, from Li Changlin’s perspective, this was a very difficult choice to make.

He never expected that the Lin Family would have shares in Endless live-streaming.

If Lin Ruonan had told him this earlier, maybe he could have helped with some planning, and it might not have been necessary to leave.

But now, there wasn’t much time left, and Li Changlin dared not delay any further.

Helping Endless with planning was fine, but that required time, while the System needed upgrading, and Ye Xiyao couldn’t wait either!

Li Changlin felt helpless and hoped Lin Ruonan would understand him.

However, Lin Ruonan suddenly sighed softly and said quietly, "Changlin, it seems we’re fated to meet but not fated to be together."

"Ruonan, why would you say that!" Li Changlin was bewildered, his body trembling slightly.

Lin Ruonan gave a bitter smile, "Because my aunt gave me an ultimatum; if I can’t keep you at Endless, she will definitely oppose us being together."

"Damn, that old aunt is too ruthless!" Li Changlin touched his forehead in annoyance, but then a sudden realization struck him, "Don’t worry, it doesn’t matter who opposes, I’m determined to have you. If the Lin Family dares not to give you to me, I’ll just storm into Jingcheng Lin Family and take you myself!"

Before, Li Changlin had already planned to create trouble for the Jingcheng Lin Family; back then, he didn’t have much confidence to take Lin Ruonan with him because his identity would mean the Lin Family wouldn’t compromise.

But now it was different; he was the legitimate heir of the Li Family Head House, destined to become the Family Head, a significant figure. Even if the Lin Family were all fools, they should know the consequences of offending the future head of a first-tier family after crossing them!

Besides, why did the Lin Family want to form a marital alliance with the Zhou Family if not to elevate their own power?

Now, presented with such an excellent opportunity, Li Changlin didn’t believe the Lin Family would choose to let it go.

"How can you speak like that!" Lin Ruonan couldn’t help but feel a mix of laughter and tears when she heard Li Changlin calling her aunt an old aunt.

But Li Changlin’s promise to fight for her filled her with a touch of vanity.

"Okay, okay, she’s not an old aunt, I was wrong. Is it okay if I admit my mistake?" Li Changlin knew Lin Ruonan wasn’t angry, but he still lowered his stance.

There was no helping it; this was the consequence of being a playboy, having caused trouble everywhere!

"Changlin, don’t be impulsive. If you really don’t want to stay in Endless, that’s fine. But don’t talk carelessly about storming the Lin Family in the future," Lin Ruonan was genuinely moved, yet she worried that Li Changlin didn’t understand the strength of the Lin Family, hence she swiftly reminded him, "Don’t worry, I won’t go with anyone else. Since meeting you in college, I’ve settled on you. This is for a lifetime, and you won’t be able to escape my grasp!"

Alright, Lin Ruonan was always this assertive; she used to speak with the same tone when trying to arrange a job for Li Changlin.

Li Changlin was somewhat amused, but he knew Lin Ruonan was comforting him, and he couldn’t let her worry too much, so he gently said, "Ruonan, there’s no need to worry, I always follow through with what I say. You can’t even imagine my current strength, and although I may not be able to confront the elder of the Lin Family, I won’t be far behind."

"I know, I know, you’re the most formidable," Lin Ruonan certainly didn’t believe Li Changlin’s bragging but saw no need to burst his bubble, so she just smiled and moved on from the subject.

Li Changlin knew what Lin Ruonan was thinking, but he didn’t point it out; everything would be settled with strength in due time. He believed that soon he would visit Jingcheng, and that would be the time to visit the Lin Family.

Having a plan in mind, Li Changlin wasn’t in a hurry, so he told Lin Ruonan that he would go to Capital City soon, and he would definitely visit the Lin Family then; he hoped Lin Ruonan would wait for him at home.

"Changlin, you’re really going, huh? Do you know what kind of place the Lin Family is, how many masters our family has!" Lin Ruonan felt a surge of fear listening to Li Changlin’s words.
