Moments later, Ling Yiran finished wiping the upper of his shoe and looked up at him. "Is this alright?"Now, her face was as pale as snow and had no trace of color. With her thin body, she looked frail.Yi Jinli unconsciously frowned. The sight of her appearance made him feel uncomfortable.Ling Yiran waited for a while, and when Yi Jinli did not answer her, she touched her nose awkwardly and laughed at herself. She got up."May I borrow a broom and a dustpan? Let me clear this place up a bit," Ling Yiran said to a man in a security guard uniform."Huh?" The man was stunned for a moment. He replied quickly after seeing a nod from Gao Congming. "Okay, give... Give me a second."He said and quickly got a broom and a dustpan, handing them to Ling Yiran.Ling Yiran hung her head low as she began to clean up her vomit. Yi Jinli stood nearby and did not leave.Since Yi Jinli did not leave, the others naturally dared not as well. Therefore, the group of people just watched Ling Yiran
Yi Jinli brought Ling Yiran out of the elevator when it stopped at the floor where the president's office was located."Let go... What are you trying to do..." she cried out. His grim expression and the forceful aura emanating all over him gave people a sense of danger.It was even more impossible to guess what he was thinking at the moment.While the secretaries looked on, no one dared to step forward. After Yi Jinli brought Ling Yiran into the office, the secretaries looked at each other and agreed to act as if nothing had happened.However, there was an unconcealable shock in their eyes!These secretaries naturally knew Ling Yiran and had secretly discussed before that Ling Yiran could join the Yi family and become the mistress of the Yi family. After all, they had never seen Young Master Yi pay so much attention to a woman before.However, these days, Ling Yiran had become such a taboo that someone who had accidentally said the word ‘Yiran’ was immediately fired!Secretary G
Ling Yiran had a flashback to the scene at the hospital when she told Gu Lichen that she was the little girl who saved his life, but Gu Lichen no longer believed her because she had denied it so many times before.Her denials were all because of... Yi Jinli, who was right in front of her now!The way things turned out was almost like an irony.Taking a deep breath, Ling Yiran said, "Yi Jinli, what's going on between Gu Lichen and me is between us. I'm not here to see you either. I thought we had already made it clear at the beginning."His eyes grew colder, and his fingers suddenly grabbed her jaw."Ah!" exclaimed Ling Yiran. She felt a pang of pain from her jaw, and his face was so close to hers that the tips of their noses almost touched. It was so close that she could count his eyelashes."Ling Yiran..." His hoarse voice rang in her ears. "Have you ever regretted it? Do you regret asking me to let you go?"She immediately stiffened. 'Regret? Maybe I would have gotten back tog
Ling Yiran quickly dialed Qin Lianyi's phone number, but a busy tone sounded from the other end.Ling Yiran called several times consecutively, but none of them got through.A strong uneasiness immediately surged in her heart.‘Nothing... can happen to Lianyi!’Ling Yiran quickly began to search online for Bai Tingxin's news and current whereabouts. However, the latest news about Bai Tingxin was only the gossip news she saw earlier about him being missing.After all, Bai Tingxin was only a businessman, not a celebrity. Though he was the patriarch of the Bai family, the attention he got would still be limited after all. Therefore, the news did not become very popular either.'What the hell is going on with Lianyi? Why isn’t Lianyi picking up her phone?' Ling Yiran also tried texting, sending WeChat messages... and so on. She tried every possible way to reach her, but there was no reply.Ling Yiran hesitated for a moment and finally called Lianyi's parents. She had saved the numbe
When she came to the hospital and mentioned Qin Lianyi's name at the nurses’ station, what was originally a fluke finally came true.Qin Lianyi was heavily injured and just got out of the emergency room. She was still under observation in the ICU ward. She could only be transferred to the general ward once she got through the critical period. Everything in front of Ling Yiran seemed to be turning gray. When she came to the ICU ward, she saw Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin standing by the glass wall. They were crying as they looked inside.Not having seen Lianyi's parents for more than four years, Ling Yiran never thought she would see them again in a place like this.'Lianyi... Lianyi is now...'Ling Yiran's legs were trembling. She was afraid to go up and see what Lianyi looked like behind the glass wall. She was scared that she would not be able to bear the sight!Step... by step...The short distance became so far away.When she finally walked up to the transparent glass wall, Ling Yi
With that, Mr. Qin said to Ling Yiran, "Lianyi is in bad shape. As you can see, our family is in a mess now. We're already in a bad mood, and we hope that you won't show up in front of us. Although we know what happened to Lianyi this time has nothing to do with you, we're reminded of how much Lianyi gave up for you when we see you, so we'll always bear a grudge against you.""I... I understand that," said Ling Yiran. She had never blamed Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin. Any parent would not like to see their child sacrifice their promising future for a friend.Just then, a nurse came over and handed a bill to Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin. "We've deducted the deposit from before. You still owe some money, so you should pay up as soon as possible. Qin Lianyi still has two more surgeries to go. And with the cost of the ICU ward and the subsequent costs, family members better prepare... more than a million dollars."That knocked Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin out of their wits. More than a million dollars? How cou
One to two million dollars might be nothing to Gu Lichen, but for Lianyi, it was the money needed to save her life!Ling Yiran took out her phone and dialed Gu Lichen's number, but no one answered. She clenched her teeth and went to Gu Lichen's ward at City First Hospital, but it was empty. The news she got from the nurse was that Gu Lichen had gone through the discharge formalities this afternoon!'Where else? Where else can I find Gu Lichen?'Ling Yiran's mind kept thinking, 'The Gu family's mansion or Gu Lichen's... private mansion?'She remembered Gu Lichen mentioning that he usually stayed in his private mansion, and the address of the mansion was... Ling Yiran remembered that online gossip news had mentioned the address before.After all, Gu Lichen was the crown prince of the entertainment industry. Many people knew where his private mansion was, but it was not easy for just about anyone to enter. After all, it had the best security system in the world and a lot of security
Just then, a car suddenly pulled up and Hua Lifang got out of it. There was a look of surprise in her eyes when she saw Ling Yiran. She stepped forward and said, "Yiran, why are you here?"Ling Yiran took a deep breath and said to Hua Lifang, "I want to see Lichen. I have a friend who's seriously injured and is in the ICU. I want to ask Lichen for help. If... possible, can you take me inside to see Lichen?"Knowing Hua Lifang would never agree due to their recent feud, but for Lianyi's sake, Ling Yiran would give it a try anyway.Sure enough, just as she expected, Hua Lifang wore an embarrassed look and said, "I can't help you. As you know, you and Lichen ended on bad terms today. Lichen is still mad. Won't Lichen get mad at me if I bring you in? Sorry, but I can't help you."With that, Hua Lifang turned around and got back into the car. The iron gates opened slowly, and the car drove in. Sitting in the car, Hua Lifang looked through the car window at Ling Yiran who was standing ou
