"Boo-hoo. Mommy, what should I do? I misunderstood Lil Fei. I don't want him to hate me. I don't want to be unable to see him again. I... I miss him. I want to apologize to him! Boo-hoo..." said Yi Qianjin as she wept. Big teardrops kept falling from her face. Ling Yiran gently hugged her daughter and comforted her gently. "Alright, stop crying. Stop crying. Lil Fei isn't that petty. He'll forgive you if you apologize to him sincerely.""Yes... Yes... I’ll apologize... I’ll apologize to him sincerely..." The little one cried and nodded her little head. She was a little out of breath."I'll take you to Deer City to visit Lil Fei someday. Then you can apologize to him, okay?" said Ling Yiran.Yi Qianjin answered, "Okay. When... When are you taking me? Mommy, I want to see Lil Fei as soon as possible. I want to quickly apologize to him and make up with him!""I have to find out where exactly Lil Fei is staying now and speak to Lil Fei's daddy before we can go over. I'll arrange it a
"My wife, our two children, and I are planning to go to Deer City soon and visit you. You're not going to say no, are you?" said Yi Jinli.Shen Weifang was silent for a while. "I don't want my son to return to Shen City before he even gets familiar with Deer City.""Don't worry. Since he's a member of the Shen family, he should stay in Deer City, of course. I’ll just be bringing the children there to visit him. Nothing will change," said Yi Jinli.Then Shen Weifang said, "Okay, come over anytime."The two men ended the call after setting a date.Shen Weifang came out of the study, looked at the time, and went to the piano room.He knew that his son should be practicing in the piano room at this hour.His son's piano talent was even better than he had expected. Even a famous pianist in Deer City whom he had found for his son had said that he had great talent after listening to his son's performance. Although he was a little weak at emotional expression, he was still young, after
The person took Yi Jinli and the rest to a private room. They respectfully opened the door.However, when Yi Jinli, Ling Yiran, and the rest went in, they found that Shen Weifang was the only one in the private room. Shen Jifei was not there.Yi Qianjin's expression, which had been full of expectation, instantly sank. "Where's Lil Fei? Why isn't he here?" Yi Qianjin asked anxiously."Lil Fei has a class today and can't come, but he knew you were coming and asked me to take good care of you," Shen Weifang replied to Yi Qianjin with a smile.Yi Qianjin said, "Where is he having his class? I'll go to him. I have something to give him in person, and I want to apologize to him. I... I found out he didn't push Brother Yan down the stairs but saved him instead. Otherwise, Brother Yan would have been shot with an air gun."Shen Weifang raised his eyebrows and looked at Yi Jinli and Ling Yiran.Ling Yiran then told Shen Weifang about what exactly had happened. "It's a misunderstanding. Ev
Yi Qianjin looked shocked and was at a loss for words for a long time. Ling Yiran hugged her daughter, feeling sorry for her. Then, she looked at Shen Weifang and said, "Why don't you let me talk to Lil Fei, Mr. Shen? Maybe he'll be willing to meet us afterward.""I don't think that's necessary. Lil Fei might be a child, but he's sensitive. He might need some time to recover from this injustice. I don't want him to suffer any emotional damage if you were to bother him too much. He's my son, and I should protect him, right?" said Shen Weifang."But we mean no harm, Mr. Shen! We just want to tell him the truth and apologize to him," said Ling Yiran."I'll tell him the truth and send him your apologies. I suppose that should be enough," said Shen Weifang before getting up. "I’ve ordered some specialties of Deer City. You should try them since you don't come here often. I have other things to attend to, so I won’t be joining you. You can talk to the restaurant manager if you want to exp
However, he had a hard time refusing his daughter..."Alright, but only for one night." Yi Jinli finally sighed, picked up his daughter, and said, "We'll head back to Shen City tomorrow morning. We can't stay here any longer than that. Mommy and I have a lot of work to do when we go back to Shen City, do you understand?""Got it!" The little head nodded vigorously. Yi Qianjin's two small hands wrapped around Yi Jinli's neck as she gave him several kisses on his face in gratitude.Yi Jinli was pleased with his daughter's kisses as a smile appeared on the corners of his lips.Yi Qianmo curled his lips, not surprised by his father's double standards. When he kissed his father, his father looked disgusted and said it was as if he were kissing himself. He even told him that boys should not kiss too often.However, his father enjoyed his sister's kisses. Was it because she looked like his mother? He had seen his father kiss his mother many times.His father kissed a lot too.When he k
When the two children unanimously asked to sleep in one room, Ling Yiran did not think much about it. After all, since Lil Fei had left the Yi family, the two siblings often slept together.Lil Mo said he wanted to comfort his sister too.Therefore, Ling Yiran told the two children bedtime stories and tucked them in. When she saw the little ones slowly closing their eyes, she left the room.What she did not expect was that the little ones opened their eyes and began to quietly change their clothes after she left the room.Yi Qianjin began to check her small backpack while Yi Qianmo connected his phone to the LCD TV in their room. Various software began to bounce on the big screen, and Yi Qianmo's fingers quickly tapped on his phone.Moments later, the surveillance screens in the hotel's control room instantly went dark."What's going on? Did someone hack the hotel's security system?""Hurry and fix it!""Does some hacker want to use this as blackmail? Are they asking for money?
Shen Weifang's voice came from the phone. "What's the matter? Are you calling me to talk about the children again?"Yi Jinli said, "I do need to talk to you about the children. Did my son or daughter drop by your place?""You're not asking me for your son and daughter after you lost them, are you?" Shen Weifang quipped.Unexpectedly, Yi Jinli replied with four words. "Yes, I lost them.""Cough, cough..." A series of coughs sounded from the other end of the line. After a long while, the coughing stopped. "You lost your son and daughter?""Yes, let me know if they go to your place," said Yi Jinli."Sure, do you need help looking for them? After all, you're in Deer City, not Shen City. I have more connections here than you do," said Shen Weifang. After all, Yi Jinli had helped raise his son for a while, so he had to repay him somehow."Thanks," said Yi Jinli.Therefore, Shen Weifang and Yi Jinli pulled their own strings to look for the two kids in Deer City. They did not know that
"Hacked?" Shen Weifang was quick to filter through his competitors in the business world who were likely to go against him. "What about now? When will it be restored?""I'm afraid it's going to take some time, but the backup power supply is now on. The house will soon have power again," his subordinate said.Sure enough, the lights in the residence were switched back on after a while. Shen Weifang pondered for a moment. Suddenly, he seemed to recall something and dialed Yi Jinli's number before asking, "Yi Jinli, your son seems to have good computer skills, right?"After all, Yi Qianmo's forte was also written in the information he received when he investigated the Yi family before this.However, he had just flipped through the information without thinking much about it. After all, even if a child had good computer skills, how good could they be? Now... he needed to give it some thought. When the call got through, Shen Weifang asked, "Tell me, how did your son and daughter leave
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
