Mrs. Kang had a fever! However, Ling Yiran had no idea what was going on, let alone where her mentor and his wife were!Just then, a voice suddenly rang in her ears. “Did you have a nightmare?'Ling Yiran instantly froze, only feeling a shadow approaching her. She stared blankly at the person in front of her. It was Jin!However, the room was dim at the moment. She could only see his figure but not his expression."What did you dream about?" he asked."N-Nothing. I don't remember much," she said vaguely.'Really?' His eyes glimmered in the dark. He raised his hand to gently stroke her cheek. He knew what she had dreamt about.She dreamed of him, that woman, and her mentor.He could hear her calling his name, her mentor’s name, and... that woman’s name in her dream!"I'm sorry I woke you up. I'll go wash my face," said Ling Yiran as she threw off the covers and went to the bathroom.She closed the bathroom door and looked at the mirror in front of the sink. Looking at the refl
"Are you worried about her?" he asked instead of replying to her question."She used to take care of me and cared a lot about me. I can't be indifferent," said Ling Yiran.He raised his hand and brushed it gently over her swollen eyes. "But what's the point even if you know how she's doing now?""Jin, if you really want to take revenge on Mrs. Kang, at least get her a doctor. Otherwise, at her age, she’ll probably die if the fever gets serious," said Ling Yiran.Yi Jinli suddenly chuckled. "She’ll 'probably' die, but what about my father? He did die! Yiran, do you know what real revenge is? She's only having a fever now. I haven't had her mutilated, her tongue cut, or her eyes gouged out. I didn’t even break her arms or legs. I’ve been nothing but merciful. What else do you want from me?"He would probably have made the woman more miserable if it had not been for Ling Yiran!Ling Yiran gasped and looked at the man in front of her in shock.Yi Jinli gently stroked the hair beside
He regretted the mistake he made countless times. He constantly wondered whether their fate could have been rewritten if he had helped her when she came to ask him for help.Perhaps... it was like what Yiran said. The one she loved would always be Jinli no matter what he did.Just then, Gu Lichen's phone rang. He picked it up to look and frowned.This number rarely called him, unless...Gu Lichen answered it and heard a voice on the other end of the line saying, "Young Master Gu, someone came with the amethyst flower and asked us to track down two people."Gu Lichen's hand clenched slightly as he held the phone. He ordered the person, "Give that person whatever she wants.""Yes, I understand, Young Master Gu." The call ended.Gu Lichen looked down at his phone with a flicker of thought in his eyes. He had left the address just in case Yiran would encounter any trouble.However, he did not expect her to go there so soon.'Is Yi Jinli unable to help her track down the two people
At first, she was driven to a corner by her family's debt and almost sold herself in a nightclub. However, someone suddenly approached her and told her she could make a fortune if she gave birth to a child through in vitro fertilization to an important man.Not only would it pay off her family's debt but it would also be enough for her to live a wealthy life. It was so much better than making a living in a nightclub.She was intrigued and began to contact the middleman.She thought the man who wanted her to carry his baby must have some flaws, but the man who appeared before her was a tall, handsome man. Besides, she also secretly found out online that the man was the crown prince of the entertainment industry!It seemed like a dream that the crown prince wanted to have a baby with her, so she agreed to be his surrogate. She had specially dressed herself up today just so she could climb up the social ladder. What she wanted was not just to be a surrogate but to be able to take th
He could use this child to make it up for his parents. Whether they were male or female, they would inherit all the Gu family's fortune after he died.Gu Lichen took out a small silver bracelet from his breast pocket. It was the only thing he had that belonged to Yiran.He held the bracelet tightly to his chest, slowly closing his eyes and muttering, "Yiran..."To him, it was a name he would yearn for the rest of his life!It turned out some mistakes were regrets that could not be remedied in a lifetime!..."What? Lianyi is in the emergency room?" Ling Yiran was shocked when she received a call from Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin. "Why is she in the emergency room?"Mrs. Qin said in a panic, "She took a nap after coming home from the community health center where she took her progesterone shot. She felt a little under the weather and threw up after having dinner. She didn't look right, so we brought her to the hospital but she fainted on the way there. The ER doctor is examining Lianyi r
"Lianyi's my best friend. I'll help her no matter what trouble she's in," said Ling Yiran.Just then, the blood test report came out and the team of specialists Yi Jinli arranged arrived as well. They urgently examined Qin Lianyi.When Qin Lianyi woke up, she learned that something was wrong with the progesterone shot she took at the community health center.There was something else in her blood that caused her heart to beat faster, thus affecting the baby's heartbeat as well. This unknown substance would often kill the unborn child."How... How could something be wrong with the progesterone shot?” Qin Lianyi's face was full of disbelief. Then, her hands nervously covered her belly. "Baby... My baby...""The baby's fine, but you’ll need to stay for further observation. After all, it was injected through an IV, so the effects are more direct," said Ling Yiran, trying to alleviate the problem."How did this happen? How could there be something wrong with the progesterone shot?" Qin
"Mrs. Kang has been regretting it, and she’s been thinking about you all these years—" said Ling Yiran.He interrupted her and said, "Don't mention her again. I don't want to hear about her."She wanted to go on but paused and said no more.The children were already asleep when they got back to Yi Residence. Ling Yiran and Yi Jinli went back to their bedroom. When Yi Jinli changed out of his clothes, she caught sight of the scar on his chest.She felt another pang in her heart. The scar was so glaring that it represented the pain he had suffered.'With current medical technology, he could have removed a scar like that with a laser procedure, but he kept it on his body. Did he do that to remind himself not to forget the pain his mother caused him?'"Jin, is this really going to make you happy?" Ling Yiran asked abruptly."What?" He turned to look at her.She walked up to him and raised her hand to gently stroke the scar on his chest. "Are you really happy never letting go of the
However, she held him tightly and deepened the kiss. It was as if this moment was everything to her!Sometime later, the kiss finally ended. Her face, hair, and body were thoroughly wet from the warm water."What's the matter?" asked Yi Jinli as he raised his hand to wipe the water off Ling Yiran's face."I just... wanted to tell you I love you all of a sudden!" said Ling Yiran. Her delicate chin, straight nose, and almond-shaped eyes became wetter because of the mist. Her pink lips opened and closed. She looked so seductive yet pitiful that no one would have expected her to be a mother of three."Did you come in all of a sudden just to tell me you love me?" He could not help but laugh and ask. After all, it seemed to be the first time she did this."Yeah," she said. Her fingers ran gently over his eyebrows, the outer corner of his eyes, his nose bridge, and finally settled on his lips. "Jin, I want you to know that you’ll always be the person I love the most!"As he carried her
