Chapter 1571

Author: Gu family's Little Bamboo
When the car arrived at the gate of Qin Lianyi's neighborhood, she lowered her head and unbuckled the seat belt. She whispered a thank you and was about to open the car door when Bai Tingxin's voice suddenly rang out...

"Are you going to date that man?"

Qin Lianyi paused. It took her a while to figure out that by ‘that man’, he meant Bai Yulai.

"He's pretty good. He's financially stable and we have a few things in common. Besides, I'm good-looking too. It'd be good to date him if he likes me," said Qin Lianyi.

"You want to date him just because of that? In that case, do you like him?" he asked, glaring at her.

She felt a sudden sense of amusement. "Why not? A man like him is a man many women would want to marry."

"Qin Lianyi!" His voice rose, and there was a faint trace of anger in his voice.

She was a little confused why he was so angry. 'Is he mad at me for falling for another man?

'He was the one who didn’t want me. Besides, he has a girlfriend himself. Why does he care whet

    Qin Lianyi could not help but sigh. "You noticed it? I thought I was covering it up pretty well.""I could kind of tell that you had something on your mind," said Ling Yiran. Her best friend had sounded a little... too happy on the phone and during video calls in the last two days.Sometimes, the happier Lianyi seemed, the more she had on her mind."What's the matter? What's going on?" Ling Yiran asked with concern.Qin Lianyi stopped hiding and said, "I met Bai Tingxin.""You went to see him?" Ling Yiran was surprised. She also knew that Bai Tingxin had come to Shen City two days ago."He appeared in front of me. I don't know whether it was a coincidence, so I'm a little confused too.""Then you...""Don't worry. I know that it's impossible between us. I won't let myself get caught up in it," Qin Lianyi said. She got rid of the look of sadness on her face and said, "Oh, didn't you say you're going to a banquet with Yi Jinli in two days and you have no idea what to wear? There'

    Compared to the previous sales assistant, the manager's attitude was much better."Get me a new sales assistant. Since this sales assistant doesn't want to serve me, then there's no need to force her," said Ling Yiran."I'm sorry you had a bad experience." The manager apologized and called for another staff member who looked young.Ling Yiran glanced at the name tag pinned to their chest. They were a junior sales assistant, probably someone who had just started working in the boutique.She smiled and briefly told them what she was looking for as well as the colors she liked. The rookie sales assistant started helping Ling Yiran look for suitable gowns.Qin Lianyi said, "That's it? That staff member earlier wasn’t even remotely professional."Ling Yiran said, "That person isn't even afraid of complaints. If she's not afraid, why bother? Don't worry, she'll be sorry in a minute."Qin Lianyi appeared to be thinking about something.Just then, the rookie sales assistant came over a

    "This isn't a place for the likes of you," Su Wenting said arrogantly.Qin Lianyi said as if amused, "What's the matter? Are you superior to me? What you have now is just because your daughter became the adopted daughter of the Yi family. Before that, did you come from a better family, have a better education, better career, or better income than me?"Honestly speaking, Su Wenting was just an ordinary citizen before this. She was not any better than Qin Lianyi!Su Wenting's face looked extremely grim. She picked up the glass of water the sales assistant had poured for her and wanted to splash it on Qin Lianyi.Qin Lianyi was on her guard. As soon as she saw what Su Wenting was doing, she raised her hand and twisted Su Wenting's hand. Immediately, the glass of water in Su Wenting’s hand spilled all over herself.Su Wenting let out a shrill, drawing the attention of the boutique staff and other customers.The manager hurried over. When they saw what had happened, they quickly helpe

    However, when Ling Yiran wore the gown, Su Wenting knew that even if she got her hands on it, she would not wear it to the banquet."What a coincidence, Miss Ling. I didn't expect you to be here," Su Wenting said with embarrassment."It's quite coincidental, indeed. I heard the noise when I was in the fitting room earlier. I didn't expect it to be you," said Ling Yiran. Then, she corrected, "Also, I think you should be calling me Mrs. Yi. Didn't Jin warn you about it last time?"Su Wenting ground her teeth. 'Jin... Jin... How intimately she was referring to him.' She had tried to call Young Master Yi ‘Jinli’ once but he unhappily warned her to call him Mr. Yi.It was as if she did not deserve to call him ‘Jinli’."Mrs. Yi..." Su Wenting laughed dryly and said, "It was only a misunderstanding earlier. Don't mind it.""How could it be a misunderstanding? This woman's friend splashed water all over you," the sales assistant who had been flattering Su Wenting said. She looked like sh

    'Is this woman...'Immediately, the manager and the sales assistant who had tried to curry favor with Su Wenting went pale.Ling Yiran generously accepted the card and did not refuse it. Then, she said to the junior sales assistant who had been serving her. "I'll take this gown. Please wrap it up for me after I change out of it.""O-Okay..." she said excitedly. As a newcomer, she had hit the jackpot to get such a sale.Su Wenting was more embarrassed and wanted to pick up her bag to leave quietly, but Ling Yiran stopped her. "Miss Su, we're not done yet. Don't you want to look at the surveillance footage?""No... No thanks. I was the one who spilled water on myself by accident," Su Wenting said with a dry laugh."Miss Su, since you were the one who spilled water on yourself, aren't you going to apologize for making people misunderstand that my friend splashed water on you?" asked Ling Yiran.Su Wenting looked surprised and asked almost subconsciously, "Apologize?""What's the m

    "Yes... Yes, I understand. I'm not going to spend money that isn’t befitting of my status." With that said, Su Wenting fled the boutique almost in fear.At night, Ling Yiran went back to the bedroom after putting the two little ones to sleep. She began to search for news regarding Bai Tingxin on her phone.Although her daughter's single bedroom was already furnished, Jin liked to sleep with Lil Mo these days.At night, she would lay on Yi Qianmo's bed and ask her brother to tell her a story when it was time to go to sleep. Ling Yiran did not know whether to laugh or cry at that.However, considering that the two children were still young and Ling Yiran wanted them to bond, she let them sleep together.Poor Yi Qianmo. A child who did not talk much was now being forced into becoming a chatterbox by his sister.His sister resented the lack of passion when he told her stories, so he would be forced to tell the same stories several times.Ling Yiran expected her son to grow impatient

    There was a hint of laughter in Yi Jinli's dark eyes. He gently pulled her hand and said, "You're not allowed to be interested in other men. I'm the only man you can be interested in!"Ling Yiran was momentarily dazed. He was still as overbearing as before.Back then, he did not like her to be close to other men too. He would overbearingly tell her to only look at him and think of him... Come to think of it, it was sweet.Suddenly, there was a slight pain in Ling Yiran's earlobe. She suddenly came to her senses to find Yi Jinli nibbling her earlobe.She trembled and felt the blood rushing to her ears."Jin, stop it..." She trembled and unconsciously raised her hand to cover her ear.However, before her hand could touch her ear, his hand pinned it down. "I won’t..."He murmured, sounding as though he was tasting the most delicious food.Her face grew redder. "Well... Well, I bought a gown at the boutique today. I spent a lot of money on it. It... It doesn't matter, does it..."

    He calmly said those cruel and vicious words as though they were small matters.Ling Yiran said, "No, you don't have to do all that. You just have to make her understand that you're mine. That's all. Don't give her any hope. If she has any other ideas and steps out of line, I'll deal with her myself."No matter what, she would not share her husband with another!Yi Jinli raised his eyebrows slightly. "I'm yours?"Ling Yiran’s cheeks started blushing again but she did not avoid Yi Jinli's eyes. She said earnestly, "Yeah, you're mine. You're my husband."A touch of tenderness flickered through Yi Jinli's eyes, but he did not notice it himself.He was so used to being in control that he would have hated it if someone else had said it, but he felt pleased and satisfied when she said it. He did not know how to describe it."Are you so sure that I'm yours? Aren't you afraid of me falling in love with another woman?" he asked as his thin lips tugged into a smile.Ling Yiran bit her li

    He clenched his jaw and felt his teeth ache. 'Yeah, she’s broken up with me. She has every right to find a new boyfriend, but... the thought of her smiling at another man, and kissing and hugging him makes me uncomfortable.’ Gu Lichen could not help feeling irritated."You can't find one! Do you think you can find another man like me to love when you love me so much?" he said.Zhong Keke retorted with a slightly red face, "You... You're too confident. Who are you to say I can't find one? I love you now, but I can slowly get over you. Besides, I don't need to find a man like you in the future. I just need to find an ordinary man with a good personality who treats me well! I’ll give him all my heart, and he’ll do the same!"It was more like she was telling herself that.'Yes, I can move on from him. I can do it!'However, her words seemed to have provoked him as he turned the steering wheel sharply, slammed on the brakes, and pulled over at the roadside.She was thrown forward and

    The fact Zhong Keke accepted was that she feared she would love him more and more!When Yi Jinli and Gu Lichen returned to the ward, Ling Yiran was still chatting with Zhong Keke about the children, not only the new baby but also the triplets."Alright, Lichen and I are going home first. Yiran, have a good rest. I'll visit you and the baby again next time," Zhong Keke said and got up after seeing the exhaustion on Ling Yiran's face.Ling Yiran replied, "Okay. I'll let you meet my triplets next time.""Sure."After Zhong Keke and Gu Lichen left, Yi Jinli lay on Ling Yiran's bed and said, "If you're sleepy, sleep first. The doctor said you need more rest."Ling Yiran said, "I'm a little sleepy, but I had a nice chat with Keke today. Jin, you know what? I think it's great that Lichen has fallen in love with Keke. Keke's a wonderful woman, and Lichen has finally found his happily ever after."She said as she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.Looking at his wife's sleeping fac

    "Thank you! It's a good painting, and I like it very much. I didn't expect you to draw my daughter like that.""I saw the baby when I came to the hospital that day, so I remembered," said Zhong Keke."I heard from Jin that you and Lichen both came to the hospital that day. I didn't scare you, did I?" said Ling Yiran.Zhong Keke smiled softly, "All that matters is that you're safe. Being alive is better than anything."The two women chatted while the two men looked at each other. Then, Yi Jinli said, "Lichen, let's go get some air."The two men got up and walked out of the ward.Zhong Keke looked uneasily at the ward door.Ling Yiran said, "They’ll be back soon. Don't worry. My Jin won't kidnap Lichen."Zhong Keke smiled, knowing that Yi Jinli probably had not told Ling Yiran about what happened that day."By the way, how are you and Lichen's relationship? Does he treat you well?" Ling Yiran asked."He treats me well." It was true. He treated her well. He would give her everyt

    He and Song Qingyao were not even friends."You don't have to explain this to me," said Zhong Keke. They had broken up, and she did not need these explanations.Besides, she knew better than anyone that he had always been in love with Yiran.Thinking of Yiran, Zhong Keke said, "I want to go to the hospital to see Yiran. Can I?" The last time she visited Yiran, Yiran was still unconscious, so she wanted to check on her.Hesitation flashed across Gu Lichen's face."Don't worry. I won't say anything to trigger Yiran. I’ll still pretend to be your girlfriend in front of Yiran. If Yiran asks you, you can say we're doing quite well. When Yiran has recovered, I can make an excuse to say we've broken up. Of course, I can take all the blame. For example, I thought being with you attracted too much attention, or I couldn’t get used to being with you, or I had fallen for someone else—"Before she could finish speaking, she was suddenly pulled into a wide embrace.His hands held her tightly

    Zhou Xinmian: [I said you were living with Gu Lichen now. Then they said nothing and left readily.]"..."Zhou Xinmian: [Did you block their phone numbers? They said you're not answering your phone.]Zhong Keke: [Yeah.]She should have blocked her uncle's family's phone numbers long ago. Even blocking them now was considered late!Zhou Xinmian: [Well done! But didn’t they try calling you using another phone number?]Zhong Keke: [They did. But as soon as they spoke and I heard their voices, I hung up and blocked their phone numbers.]In other words, she did not give them a chance to talk.She did not want to listen to what they had to say anyway. They had worn out the last of her affection.Zhou Xinmian: [Have you made up your mind this time?]Zhong Keke: [I’ll just consider that my grandparents only gave birth to my father!]In other words, she no longer considered her uncle and his family her family!Zhou Xinmian: [You should have done that long ago! They told me Gu Lichen

    It was why he had said such things at the time to keep the woman from leaving!"Maybe I've liked you since then." It probably started earlier than he thought.Zhong Keke's eyes watered as tears were about to pour out. She raised her hands and covered her eyes, "Gu Lichen, stop telling me such things!"Such things would only make her waver when her resolution was hard-won. Did he know how much determination and perseverance it took her to ask for a break-up and keep her distance from him to stop loving him when she loved him so much?Though her hands shielded her eyes, they could not stop the tears.His fingers pulled her hands away. "Alright, I'll stop. I'll stop talking. Don't cry."Her tears had always left him flustered.He hugged her and coaxed her. The indifference in his phoenix eyes had become affection.Zhong Keke finally stopped crying, but she still sniffled occasionally.Holding a tissue, Gu Lichen carefully wiped the tears from her face. After a moment, he said,

    "Do you care about me?" She smiled bitterly. "That word isn’t only something you say but..." She did not continue speaking after a pause.However, he already knew what she was going to say.Gu Lichen turned pale. He knew that the incident at the comic fiesta was something that bothered her.He was the one who caused it!"Also, I think we'd better talk about the possibility of me getting pregnant!" she said."Okay, go ahead," he said as he asked the others in the living room to leave."Will you insist that I have the baby if I get pregnant?" she asked, looking at him."If you’re pregnant, I don't want to lose the baby," he said. He had never longed for children even though his parents had always wanted grandchildren, even if it was out of wedlock.However, such ideas had never occurred to him.Now, he wanted to have the baby because they would be... his baby with Keke!"Even if I don't want the baby, are you still going to stop me from having an abortion?" she asked.He was s

    Even though he did not love her, she still thought she was a better candidate than Zhong Keke.However, to her disappointment, the way Gu Lichen looked at her was still icy."I'm not interested in you. The Song family you're so proud of will no longer exist in Shen City a year later. Perhaps the Song family can keep some things if you start planning now. Otherwise, you'll have nothing left."With that said, Gu Lichen left the ward, leaving Song Qingyao standing where she was in a daze.Other than reluctance, resentment, and jealousy, there was more shock and fear on her face.'Does Lichen intend to eradicate the Song family within a year? Is... Is he going that far for Zhong Keke? He doesn't love Zhong Keke, right? Why is he doing it? Why?' Unfortunately, no one could give her the answer.Gu Lichen walked out of the hospital and got into the car. He slowly closed his eyes as Song Qingyao's last words flashed through his mind.'It doesn't matter... even if I don't love her?'Kek

    Song Qingyao's heart sank. Sure enough, he could find out anything he wanted to."Why did you do it?" Gu Lichen said coldly.Song Qingyao suddenly laughed. "You're asking me why? Gu Lichen, I’ve loved you for so many years. What do you think?""I wouldn't love you even if Zhong Keke didn't exist. If I wanted to fall for you, I would have done so from the beginning," said Gu Lichen.Song Qingyao's mouth was full of bitterness. She knew that!However, knowing was one thing. Her being reluctant and unwilling to accept it was a different matter!She shouted, "Why did you choose Zhong Keke? You love Ling Yiran because Ling Yiran saved your life when you were a child. What about Zhong Keke? Why her?"She accepted losing to Ling Yiran because she had never saved Lichen's life.However, how could she accept losing to Zhong Keke? "Because she's the one who saved me from the messy relationship," replied Gu Lichen."What do you mean?" Song Qingyao was puzzled.Instead of explaining, he
