Su Wenting instantly felt like she was slapped in the face again. It was far more painful and embarrassing than when she got slapped by Ling Yiran."I'm alright," replied Ling Yiran.Yi Jinli gently massaged Ling Yiran's palm with his fingers. "Tell me if you want to slap someone next time. Don't hurt your hand."He glanced at her palm again as he spoke, "It's a little red now.""Mister... Mr. Yi, I..." Su Wenting could not help voicing out. She was the one in pain. Her face was redder and more swollen!Yi Jinli seemed to remember that Su Wenting was here and glanced at her coldly."By the way, my wife may have left the Yi family for five years, but she's still the mistress of the Yi family. Since when did you gain the right to criticize her? And since when did the Yi family become your family? You’ve never been a member of the Yi family, so don't think of the Yi family as your own."Yi Jinli's icy voice and stare made Su Wenting shudder as she said dejectedly, "But my... My dau
With red and swollen cheeks, Su Wenting left Yi Residence, full of hatred and jealousy.Ling Yiran let her two children wash up and tucked them into bed.Yi Qianjin casually said good night and kissed her mother and brother before falling asleep.After his sister fell asleep, Yi Qianmo solemnly told Ling Yiran, "You're my only mommy."Ling Yiran was stunned for a moment. Then, she felt a little sorry for her son's precocity after coming to her senses.'Is he worried Su Wenting will replace me?'"Don't worry, Daddy won't let another woman be your mommy."The little one seemed to ponder over it for a moment after hearing that. He nodded and said good night to Ling Yiran before falling asleep as well.Ling Yiran could not help but smile as she watched the faces of her two sleeping children.'No matter what it takes, I'll protect my kids, my family, and... the man who loves me so deeply!'...When she returned to the bedroom, Ling Yiran saw Yi Jinli with his eyes closed and brow
"So you don't care about the memories you don't remember?"As soon as he spoke, she fell silent. She knew he was referring to the memory of her leaving the Yi family and falling into the sea.Although she did not remember, she had gotten a general idea from Gao Congming. Jin just... had no idea about it.His eyes stared at her as if he was observing her reaction.She took a deep breath and said to him, "All that matters to me is our present time together. I would like to remember my past with you if it's a good memory. If they're bad memories, then I'd rather forget about them.""You'd rather forget?" he muttered."Yes, I would," she said. She would rather not recall those painful memories. Perhaps she would not realize how intense the pain was if she could not remember.After a pause, Ling Yiran raised her hand and caressed Yi Jinli's face. "Jin, if you really want to recover your memories, why don't you let nature take its course? Don't do it at the expense of your health. All
He had so many worries and doubts in his mind but could not get solutions to them!"Yiran, as long as you stay by my side... I won't be in pain..." As he finished speaking, his lips pressed hard against hers as if he wanted to devour her whole being......"Bai Tingxin, my parents will be calling the police and suing you for kidnapping if you don't let me go. Everything will be too late by then!" Gao Manlin blurted out after finally seeing Bai Tingxin a few days later.She had nothing to do but look out of the window every day while she was locked up here. She did not have any communications device. She was going crazy and totally unaware of what was going on outside."Don't worry about that. Your parents are probably too busy to look for you because of the mess the Gao family is in. I also told them you're staying in my villa now," Bai Tingxin said nonchalantly as he sat on the couch.Gao Manlin's expression changed. "What happened to the Gao family?"Bai Tingxin gave his subor
"What?" Gao Manlin asked in disbelief.'Didn't Bai Tingxin take so long to plan this just to destroy the Gao family? But now he said he's willing to give us a way out?'"I can lend the Gao family a sum of money. At least, you can keep the Sunshine City project after this crisis," said Bai Tingxin.Gao Manlin's heart shuddered. ‘Does Bai Tingxin mean the Gao family can't keep anything but the Sunshine City project after this crisis?'In that case, the Gao family will be kicked out of high society! The rest of our assets will also be stripped!'But... maybe we'll have a chance to turn things around with Sunshine City!'"Why will you lend money to the Gao family? What are you up to?" Gao Manlin asked sternly. Bai Tingxin must have a greater plot if he was willing to offer such conditions!"I want to break off our engagement," said Bai Tingxin.Gao Manlin suddenly sneered. "Break off our engagement? Are you worried you can't break off the engagement now that the Gao family is in su
'Back then, Bai Tingxin could only rely on the Gao family and me. I, Gao Manlin, was the superior one. Bai Tingxin could only have a future because I chose him!'She had promised Bai Tingxin to save Qin Lianyi but she also asked Bai Tingxin to break up with Qin Lianyi to be with her instead.Maybe because he was not attracted to her, she wanted to conquer this man even more.For the first time, she felt jealous of Qin Lianyi.She was jealous that the woman could occupy Bai Tingxin's heart.When she saw that Bai Tingxin was turning to leave, Gao Manlin suddenly raised her voice and said, "Bai Tingxin, do you think you can still be with Qin Lianyi? You lost your shot to be with her five years ago!”Bai Tingxin's footsteps never paused. It was as if what she said did not affect him.Gao Manlin collapsed to the floor once the figure disappeared out of her sight.Even if the Gao family... could survive this, it would never be the same as before. What she could do was only slow down
Bai Tingxin looked out the window toward the apartment floor Qin Lianyi was staying on.'She's in that apartment right now. What is she doing? Is she still mad that I caused her to be in such a predicament?'"Aren't you going upstairs, Mr. Bai?" the driver asked somewhat curiously."No, I'll just stay here for a while," muttered Bai Tingxin. He still maintained the same sitting posture and looked quietly at the apartment floor through the window. 'Tomorrow... I can clear Lianyi's name tomorrow!'...The next day, news broke out that Gao Manlin had been dating a mystery man for years. She even kept him as a secret lover.They soon found out his identity. He used to be a male stripper in a nightclub. However, he now lived in a luxurious mansion and had people waiting on him when he went out.The reporter even claimed to have followed Gao Manlin for several years and had many photos of Gao Manlin's private meetings with him.Some of them were posted online, of course.In these
The cancelation of the engagement between the two families came as a shock but at the same time, it was also expected. They just did not expect it to happen so soon.Gao Manlin held a press conference on the same afternoon to explain the situation. "Mr. Bai Tingxin and I have already broken up. My boyfriend is the man the media found out about. It was only because of my parents' objection that I consulted Mr. Bai, hoping he could continue to pretend to date me and put on a show to hide it from my parents."Mr. Bai only helped me because my boyfriend and I are truly in love. He hoped that I could get my parents to change their minds."My selfishness caused all this and it has troubled the Bai family. Back then, my parents announced our engagement to the public without our knowledge. Mr. Bai and I had planned to announce that we were breaking off our engagement after some time. We just didn't expect this to happen."I'm so sorry for causing Mr. Bai and Miss Qin Lianyi trouble. I now
