"Her tears always make me feel a sense of helplessness. It's as if I would be willing to do anything to make her stop crying."Ling Yiran cried out loud and suddenly leaped into Yi Jinli's embrace, bawling noisily.She could not explain why she had done such a thing at this time. And yet, when she hugged him with her face pressed to his chest, it was if she did not need to suppress herself and she could release all the hurt in her heart without fear.Yi Jinli lowered his head and studied the woman sobbing in his embrace. He hugged her gently, letting her cry her heart out.Ling Yiran didn't know how long she had been crying for and when it ended, it was as if there were no more tears for her to shed.Yi Jinli used a tissue to gently wipe the tears from her face. "Sister, can you tell me what really happened?""It's Grandma," she said as she sniffled."Did she come to you to beg for leniency?" he asked, his gaze darkening slightly."No, Grandma just asked if I was fine and told
Ling Yiran silently studied the nurse's actions from start to finish. Her expression did not change even when she saw the nasty wound on her palm.Only when the nurse was rebandaging Ling Yiran's right hand with gauze did she unwittingly frown at the pain, but she did not cry out loud."Let me do it. Get out," Yi Jinli ordered the nurse.The nurse bowed out of the room respectfully. Yi Jinli took the gauze and bandaged Ling Yiran's right hand in a very practiced manner. His movements were so gentle and careful that she could barely feel any pain in her hand.When he was done bandaging, he put down the gauze. "Try to use your right hand as little as possible for the next few days. Don't clench your hand into a fist like you did just now. How much more blood do you want to lose?"She studied the dressing that he had done and noticed that the knot was tied very prettily. "You seem to be very practiced in bandaging wounds."Shadows flashed through his eyes rapidly. "I learned some ba
Yi Jinli's throat felt tight, and he found himself unable to tell her that he was Yi Jinli.He had planned to tell her his identity!Her long hair flowed down her shoulders and her face looked pale under the light. She looked at him nervously with her almond eyes, as if she was worried over something.Life seemed to have been harsh on her and she had resigned herself to receiving unfair treatment."Sis, rest well in the hospital and don't worry about anything. After you are discharged, I will tell you who I am," Yi Jinli said.Ling Yiran looked at him hesitantly before nodding her head.After she had voiced her concerns, she yawned, feeling tired."Sis, if you're tired, nap a while. The doctor said that you would feel drowsy for the next few days," Yi Jinli said as he helped her to lie down.After a while, Ling Yiran fell asleep.Yi Jinli pursed his lips as he looked at her face. He touched her cheek tenderly and moved his hand to her lips."Sis, tell me, how should I inform
After Yi Jinli had squeezed out some toothpaste onto the toothbrush, he filled the cup with warm water before placing it in her hand.Ling Yiran blushed and had no idea how she had managed to brush her teeth a few moments later. She was surrounded by his scent.Yi Jinli took a towel and wet it under the warm running water."I can do it myself..." Ling Yiran said, biting her lips."Isn't it easier if I do it?" he asked.Although what he said was true, they were standing too close to each other! His arms were on her sides, and when he wet the towel and wrung it...Ling Yiran lifted her eyes to look into the mirror.All along, she had known that Yi Jinli was good-looking. However, his forehead was no longer covered by the bangs, and he was in a suit, looking elegant. He seemed high up, beyond one's reach.Ling Yiran hadn't noticed it in the past. Even Lianyi had reckoned that he was not a homeless person, but she had insisted that he was in a similar situation to her and had kept
...After Ling Yiran had washed up, Yi Jinli carried her back to bed, and she saw that her meal had been served.Although it was a simple meal comprised of porridge and some other dishes, it looked appetizing. Ling Yiran's tummy suddenly growled loudly."The doctor recommended making you eat food that's easy to digest," Yi Jinli said.He then started to put the dishes on the overbed table for her.If anyone had witnessed the scene, their eyes would have popped out of their heads. Young Master Yi, the man who called the shots in Shen City, was attending to a woman.Ling Yiran took the utensils and started eating her food. When she lowered her head to eat, her long hair kept falling down her face, almost getting into the porridge.Just as she was about to look for a hairband to tie up her hair with, Yi Jinli showed that he was one step ahead of her and said, "Let me do it." As he spoke, he took out a hairband and a comb that had been put to one side.When Ling Yiran saw the logo
"This reporter seems unaware that Miss Ling has been imprisoned before. He only knows her name and reckons that he can write a tabloid article about you," Gao Congming said.Yi Jinli said coldly, "Continue to interrogate him. Release him only after you've got all the information you need from him. He mentioned that he saw someone post about this on social media. Go and find out who saw it and who mentioned it!""Got it," Gao Congming replied.When Yi Jinli pushed open the door to the ward and saw Ling Yiran eating her porridge, he wondered if the reporter had chanced upon the news concerning the two of them."Was it a coincidence that we were discovered the night before, or... was there something else?" Ling Yiran lifted her head and saw that Yi Jinli's face had darkened. He seemed unhappy, so she stared at him in amazement.Suddenly, the unhappy aura around him disappeared. A smile broke out on his handsome face and he began behaving as usual."Sis, why are you staring at me?"
Xiao Ziyi pursed her lips and smiled as she looked at a woman in the group from the corner of her eyes. She remembered that the woman had gone shopping with Ling Yiran, so she must be her friend. Although she could not vent her frustrations on Ling Yiran, she could do so to her friend!When Qin Lianyi's eyes met Xiao Ziyi's, she got a bad feeling.As expected, shortly after eating dinner, Xiao Ziyi toasted with everybody. As it was inconvenient for her due to her injured leg, everyone took turns to go and toast her.When Qin Lianyi was toasting her, Xiao Ziyi deliberately shook her hand and dropped the wine glass to the floor. The wine splashed over the foot that she had put in a shoe.However, Xiao Ziyi said, "Even if you have no wish to toast me, you shouldn't have made me drop my wine glass. You could have told me that I was not welcome to join you for dinner and I would have left."Qin Lianyi stared at Xiao Ziyi after hearing what she had said. The director immediately stood i
Since Qin Lianyi had stood up, naturally, she lifted her hand. Xiao Ziyi was caught unaware and she fell to the ground. The chair that she had been sitting on fell on her and hit the leg of hers that was on its way to recovery.Xiao Ziyi cried out in pain. When the rest of them saw her, they went over to her immediately to help her up."Qin Lianyi, don't you want this job anymore? How can you treat Miss Xiao in this manner?!" the director reprimanded Qin Lianyi angrily.Qin Lianyi sneered, "You're right. I don't want this job anymore. I have had enough of it. I'm merely earning a salary, not selling myself to the design research institute as a slave. Why should I allow myself to be treated in this manner?!"Xiao Ziyi said angrily, "Do you think you can get off scot-free by resigning? I will sue you for inflicting injuries on me!""Go ahead. I will sue you for deliberately hurting me too! I will go to the hospital to get an injury assessment report right away!" Qin Lianyi said as s
