Back then, she had no memory of him or the promises they made during their childhood.Ling Yiran picked up a piece of pancake and began to eat. 'I’m just having dinner with Chenchen today.'Just like their promise, she had come to Shen City and he was treating her to lots of delicious food!...At night, a Maserati pulled up slowly and stopped in the neighborhood. Ling Yiran got out of the car. She had only taken two steps when Gu Lichen's voice came from behind her."Wait!" He caught up with a takeaway box in his hand and handed it to Ling Yiran. "These are the pancakes we had earlier. I saw you enjoying them, so I asked the restaurant to pack up another portion."Ling Yiran pursed her lips slightly before taking it. "Thank you." She could not refuse because they were pancakes.It was like... how she could not reject Chenchen when they were little and were fulfilling their promise.When she took the takeaway box, his hand grabbed her hands. His sight fell on her two hands. "Yo
‘These few days, Ling Yiran had been coming home alone, so it was alright. However, Young Master Gu sent Ling Yiran home today and now… Young Master Gu's holding Ling Yiran's hands as they’re looking at each other, just like a couple!'Gao Congming just hoped Gu Lichen and Ling Yiran would separate as soon as possible. 'If they keep on hanging around like this, who knows what Young Master Yi would do?!’...Ling Yiran walked to her rental house with a box of pancakes in her hand. She took out the keys from her bag and opened the door. Just as she was about to push the door open and walk in, another hand beat her to the door and pushed it open.Ling Yiran was taken aback and turned around immediately, only to see Yi Jinli standing behind her."When did you come?" she asked in confusion.He was wearing a thin light-colored sweater and a pair of black trousers. With his handsome face, he looked just like Prince Charming. However, his face was dark and there was restraint, struggle,
He put her hands under the tap and took the soap to wash her hands with. He washed her hands over and over again as if to rinse off all the traces, smell, and temperature Gu Lichen had left on her hands...Ling Yiran tried to withdraw her hands from Yi Jinli's grasp but it was to no avail.She had no idea how many times he had washed her hands. They began to ache. "Yi Jinli, stop it. What do you want?"He turned off the tap, picked up the towel nearby, and dried her hands carefully. "Don't let Gu Lichen touch your hands again."He could not bear the thought of what he had seen earlier. His body seemed to have been filled with jealousy.He was afraid that she would fall in love with Gu Lichen!"Stop saying things that will irritate me," he said.Ling Yiran was stunned for a moment before laughing. "Should I still be in love with you even after we’ve broken up?"He stopped what he was doing and raised his eyes to meet her calm, almond-shaped eyes.There was no panic in those eye
She looked at the person in front of her in confusion. 'What does he mean?'"If you don't love me and want to forget me because we broke up, then... let's get back together and return to how we were," he said.He was not the kind of man to change his decision upon making his mind, but this time, he went back on his word. It was like a slap in the face, and it was all just because of her!It was because her not loving him and wanting to forget him were so unbearable to him.Ling Yiran laughed. She laughed so hard that her nose was sore and she could hardly hold back her tears.'He casually wanted to break up on the same day of my birthday and knocked me down from heaven to hell.'Now, he’s talking about getting back together and returning to how we were before... How we were before? How can I ever go back to being the same like we used to again?'"What's the matter? Are you going to love me again now?" she asked.His eyelashes fluttered a little while his eyes grew darker. 'Actu
The injustice of her imprisonment and the sufferings she endured in prison would have destroyed any ordinary person's spirit and will.However, she was still holding on, working hard for her survival and future.Even though her life had been derailed by a miscarriage of justice, she was starting over.The woman seemed weak and delicate but was far more tenacious than ordinary people.She reminded him of the little girl from his childhood... Sometimes, he could not help thinking that if only that little girl had been her instead of Hua Lifang!Finding Hua Lifang only made him realize that sometimes, imagination was different from reality.People changed.The little girl was once full of a sense of justice and a desire to see justice done, but now, Hua Lifang only wanted to live a life of luxury.However, it did not matter. Since Lifang was his savior, he could give her the life she wanted as long as it was not too demanding.Gu Lichen got up. He walked out of the study and into
Hua Lifang's voice was stuck in her throat as a flash of embarrassment came over her face. She did not know what to say next."I... I was..."Gu Lichen said, "Lifang, you saved my life, so I have no displeasure in helping you change your life. Yiran's the person I love. If she needs me to change her life, I'm more than pleased to do so."Hua Lifang immediately felt a surge of jealousy!'What's so good about Ling Yiran? She even made Lichen use such words!’"She doesn't love you. Doesn't that matter? She said it herself in the recording!" Hua Lifang was eager to grasp this point.The next moment, Hua Lifang suddenly felt suffocated, and there was a chill rising from the soles of her feet. Those phoenix eyes of his were looking at her coldly."Lifang, I hope you won't use such tricks on me again, got it?" Gu Lichen exclaimed coolly.Hua Lifang froze immediately! She only felt as if those cold phoenix eyes had seen through her!…The day before Lil Yan started kindergarten was t
Zhuo Qianyun gently coaxed him, and soon, the little one fell asleep. Zhuo Qianyun then muttered, "I just hope Lil Yan won't be discriminated against when he starts kindergarten.""Who dares discriminate against him? I'll go to the kindergarten and stand up for him!" Qin Lianyi immediately said. She did not believe she could not handle a few children.Zhuo Qianyun smiled. She envied Qin Lianyi's character sometimes. She was just as fearless as she used to be. However, she could never be the same after everything she experienced."Yiran, thank you so much for the custody case," said Zhuo Qianyun."I've already talked to the firm and Lawyer Gu has agreed to help. Don't think about it too much," said Ling Yiran.Zhuo Qianyun nodded. Speaking of which, she was surprised that Ye Wenming chose a court in Shen City to hear the case. She thought he would choose a court in S City.After all, S city was his territory.Since he had chosen Shen City, she did not have to travel back and fort
Qin Lianyi looked around. There were many similar food stalls around, and the traffic in the area was pretty good."You two haven't had your dinner yet. I'll make you some fried vermicelli. You can try out my cooking," said Zhuo Qianyun."Sure!" Qin Lianyi said with a smile. Speaking of which, she had not tried her cooking yet!"What about you? I don't think you've had dinner either," said Ling Yiran as she looked at Zhuo Qianyun with concern."I'll just eat something later. I own a food stall. Would I starve myself?" Zhuo Qianyun said with a smile and quickly cooked two plates of fried vermicelli for Ling Yiran and Qin Lianyi.They ate at a small square table. Qin Lianyi praised Zhuo Qianyun's cooking while she ate. "It's much better than my mom's cooking.""Does your mom still cook at home?" asked Ling Yiran."That's right. My mom's cooking hasn't improved in decades, but she loves to occupy the kitchen. Then my dad would always butter up my mom by telling her how good her coo
