Hua Lifang said what she had planned to say, turning herself into a victim.As long as she was a victim, Ling Yiran's incident was not her fault. Ling Yiran was just unfortunate."Is everything you're telling me now the truth?" asked Gu Lichen as he stared at the person in front of him.Hua Lifang immediately said, "Of course. Why would I lie to you, Lichen? You know what? The more I thought about it later, the more scared I became. If I had entered the lounge, and since I'm not as smart as Yiran, then I'd... have gotten myself into a scandal in Shen City and be laughed at by now!"She wanted to throw herself into his arms and seek comfort as she spoke.However, Gu Lichen pushed Hua Lifang out of his arms. "Lifang, I've told you that I only regard you as my childhood savior, so don't do anything inappropriate or say something inappropriate in case you mislead others."Hua Lifang's expression immediately changed at that, and she bit her lower lip hard."Also, I hope you're tellin
However, from another point of view, her best friend had just ended things with Yi Jinli and was suffering heartbreak. Would making Yiran the maid of honor make her sad? Would it make things even worse?"In three months?" Ling Yiran was stunned, not expecting her best friend to drop such a huge bomb."Yeah, Tingxin said he'll use three months to resolve the Bai family's internal conflict, and we'll get married after that," said Qin Lianyi.Although it seemed too fast to her at first, she was at ease once she had made up her mind to get married in three months. She even began to look forward to the moment when she would become Bai Tingxin's wife!"If so, congratulations!" Ling Yiran said with a smile and sincerely gave her best wishes to her best friend. "Of course, I'll be the maid of honor for your wedding! I'll be upset if you didn’t ask me to be your maid of honor!""It doesn't matter if you feel reluctant..."The next moment, Ling Yiran reached out her arms and embraced Qin L
Qin Lianyi had been here several times before, so she was quite familiar with the temple. She brought Ling Yiran with her and bought incense and paper ingots in the temple before heading to one of the halls nearest to the temple’s entrance.There was an incense burner at the hall’s entrance. Ling Yiran followed Qin Lianyi and lit the incense before putting the incense into the incense burner.Just as the two were about to enter the temple hall, Ling Yiran heard one of the people burning incense behind them saying, "Did you hear? Yi Jinli is here too.""Yi Jinli? The Yi Jinli... from the Yi family?""Which other Yi Jinli would come here and have so many security guards conduct such inspections at the temple’s entrance?"Ling Yiran trembled. She had thought that perhaps since his name was being kept in the bottom of her heart, she would never hear that name again after leaving the mansion.However, she did not expect to hear the name again so soon! They were... even in the same tem
After hearing the word ‘Yiran’, Yi Jinli, who was not far away, suddenly stopped and looked in the direction of Ling Yiran and Qin Lianyi.Gao Congming, who was standing next to Yi Jinli, also heard it and looked in the same direction. He quickly turned to his boss who was next to him.However, Yi Jinli just looked indifferently at Ling Yiran who was on the ground. There was no change on his handsome face."Come on," he said lightly before walking down the hill.As the place where Ling Yiran fell was not far from the steps, Yi Jinli had to pass by Ling Yiran if he wanted to leave.At the moment, those pilgrims who were outside the temple had all entered the temple hall by now.It was empty outside, and Ling Yiran subconsciously looked up as the sound of footsteps came closer.She could only see a figure coming toward her.It was... Yi Jinli.She looked up and looked at him blankly.It was not the same as the fleeting glance she had taken when he walked out of the temple hall.
If deities and Buddha really existed, could they show her some mercy and let her... be able to let go of this relationship? Could they let her heart that had once fallen for that man restore its peace?It turned out that sometimes, being able to not love was a blessing!Down the hill, Yi Jinli sat in the car as he leaned against the backseat, closing his eyes slowly to rest.Gao Congming, who was in the front, was looking fearfully in the rear-view mirror at his boss in the backseat.Young Master Yi had done nothing after seeing Ling Yiran just now. It was as if he no longer cared about Ling Yiran.At least... that was what it ‘seemed’.However, was it really the case? Gao Congming was suspicious. After all, one could say that Gao Congming had seen it all since Yi Jinli and Ling Yiran met.Therefore, he naturally understood how important Ling Yiran had been to Young Master Yi. Even if Ling Yiran had wanted to kill Young Master Yi, Young Master Yi would have let her do it.Could
Ling Yiran looked at Hua Lifang with a half-smile. She did not think Hua Lifang was upset at all. She was more than 90% sure that Hua Lifang had something to do with the lounge incident.However… no one knew what the police had found in their investigation.Gu Lichen got up and walked over. He looked at Ling Yiran and said, "I also got a call from the police. No matter who they wanted to harm, once they find out who drugged that man and who locked the lounge door, I'll make them pay the price and give you justice!"Ling Yiran looked up at him. 'He knows I'm suspicious of Hua Lifang, so is he telling me that if it really is Hua Lifang who did it, he’ll never cover for her?'Hua Lifang shuddered, and there was a flash of envy in her eyes when she heard what Gu Lichen said.'Does Lichen really care that much about Ling Yiran that he can't bear to see Ling Yiran being wronged just a little? Ling Yiran wasn’t even hurt at all. She just got a few scratches on her arm.'The police said,
Hua Lifang breathed a sigh of relief. She was still applying makeup at 4:12 p.m.! She had a lot of witnesses!"Who moved the surveillance camera?" asked Gu Lichen."We're going to have to look into that to see if anyone on the scene noticed anybody moving the camera. However, I'm afraid it's going to take a long time. We have to see if we can get in touch with those people who were in the lounge area of the mall at that time and see if they noticed anything," said the police. Then, he continued to talk about Zhao Dazhu.According to Zhao Dazhu's statement, he came to see Hua Lifang that day and Hua Lifang asked him to wait in the lounge.Zhao Dazhu felt uncomfortable after about ten minutes, and then he had no memory of what happened afterward.The hospital's laboratory results had also come in. Zhao Dazhu was indeed drugged with an aphrodisiac drug that day. However, the drug was easy to buy online, so it was difficult to track its source.The police said that they would continu
"I almost didn't make it." The voice that was like a night breeze rang in her ears.Ling Yiran turned her head and saw Gu Lichen standing right behind her. "Why did you get on the bus?" she asked in surprise."Because I still want to send you home. Since you won't take my car, I'll take the bus with you," he said.Ling Yiran was shocked. Perhaps she had never expected Gu Lichen to take the bus with her."Please pay when you get on board," reminded the driver as he pulled out of the bus station.Gu Lichen fumbled in his pocket. He pulled out a 100-dollar bill and planned to throw it into the farebox. After all, the only small change he had was in that denomination."Wait"! Ling Yiran quickly stopped Gu Lichen. "Are you going to put in 100 dollars?""I only have 100 dollars," Gu Lichen said lightly.Ling Yiran pursed her lips a little. "Forget it. I'll pay for you. You can put your money away." With that, she took her monthly travel pass card and tapped it on the farebox machine
