His eyes were fixated on her. "Does it matter whether I believe it?"

She looked shocked before laughing at herself. 'Yes, whether he believes me or not has nothing to do with me. But why do I get nervous when I look at him?'

"I'm going back to my room," Ling Yiran said, trying to walk past Yi Jinli toward the stairs.

However, he suddenly pulled her arm when she had only taken two steps. The next moment, she pretty much crashed into his arms by the pull.

"I believe you're innocent." He bent down and his voice rang deeply in her ear. "Do you think you'll find anything if you investigate it yourself? Investigating a case from three years ago now... Did it ever occur to you that the truth you want might not have existed in the first place?"

Ling Yiran opened her bright, almond-shaped eyes and looked back at Yi Jinli. Then, she smiled a little. "Even people as rich and powerful as you think I can't reverse the case on my own, but a little nobody like me still thinks that maybe one day

    "Whether you’re her or not, you will only be with me for the rest of your life. There will be no one else!" he said coldly, staring at the photo.His tone of voice was domineering.He would never let her go, nor would he give anyone else any chances!...In the private room of a swanky club, Ling Luoyin was struggling to please Gu Lichen.Ling Luoyin had no guarantees, so she needed to work harder to win over Gu Lichen.However, what made her frustrated now was that ever since she entered the private room, he had only been asking about Ling Yiran, wanting to know how she was as a child, what her studies were like, and so on.Anything that involved Ling Yiran, big or small, he would want to know.'What the hell is this about? I’m his girlfriend now!' Ling Luoyin roared wildly in her head but still had to keep a gentle smile on her face and a sisterly expression as she recounted some of the things she remembered about Ling Yiran.What she talked about right now was nothing but t

    "Go on about your sister," Gu Lichen muttered."Huh? Go on... like this?" Ling Luoyin said, embarrassed."Yes. Just like that," Gu Lichen said.Ling Luoyin had to go on saying what she remembered about Ling Yiran while cursing Ling Yiran in her heart.Ling Yiran was just a sanitation service worker and had even been to prison. Even if she came from a good background, three years in prison was enough to shatter anyone’s reputation.What did Lichen… see in Ling Yiran?!Inexplicably, Ling Luoyin had a feeling that Gu Lichen had not broken up with her only because she was Ling Yiran's sister.The thought, of course, only came up for a moment and was immediately pinned down by her."Then... Then, my sister met Xiao Ziqi. Xiao Ziqi had wooed her for a while, and one time, she twisted her ankle while climbing a mountain, so Xiao Ziqi carried her on his back down the mountain. Sis later agreed to date Xiao Ziqi. They were quite sweet back then, and Sis would always make lunch for Xiao

    She was carrying him on her back with difficulty as she kept saying, "Don't be afraid. I'll carry you down the hill. I'll take you to the policeman."Don't be afraid...However, her body was shaking so much that even when she spoke, her voice trembled.It was she who was afraid, but she kept on comforting him."You're so heavy..." She could not help but complain occasionally."I'm sorry." Back then, he apologized for this."Hehe. When you get better later, you can carry me so that we're even," she said with a smile, trying to move on.He never thought that one day he would be protected by a girl younger than him."I'll carry you in the future," he said to her as if it was a promise.He said to himself in his heart that in the future, he would carry her. No matter what difficulty there was, he would carry her all the way.Where on earth was she?For many years, he was always regretful of why he had let go of her hand.If he had held on to her hand back then, would she always

    If she continued working here in the future, she might not be able to avoid ‘special treatment’ and would suffer peculiar looks from the others."I'll pass. I want to change my working environment," Ling Yiran said."I see." The director thought that the big shot behind Ling Yiran was going to give her a decent job, so with some more dissuasions, he agreed to Ling Yiran's resignation. Besides, he did not deduct her leave money and gave her one month's salary. He even got the finance department to settle it immediately.Once out of the Sanitation Service Center, Ling Yiran took a deep breath. The extra one month's salary was also a gesture of goodwill from the director, which, to put it simply, had something to do with Yi Jinli.If she had the backbone, she would have refused.Unfortunately, she could not.Her grandmother was still in the hospital. The money borrowed from Lianyi last time might not last long, and there might be subsequent expenses later. By then, her old debt woul

    "It's all right. I'll find a job myself." She refused.His eyes darkened, and the fingers that clung to her hands tightened slightly. "You don't like me helping you to find a job, Sis?"Her body could not help but stiffen. It was as if her surroundings were filled with some kind of pressure."I want to find a job myself." She took a deep breath, her almond-shaped eyes meeting his dark gaze.It would have been much easier for her if he found her a job. The job he would have given her would certainly be one that was easier and paid a lot more.However, how long... would that last?When he got tired of the game in the future and kicked her out, all she would have then would be nothing.Or perhaps, in addition to this scruple, her refusal was to preserve what little self-respect she had left.Yes. Now, the ordeal of life and the cruelty of reality continued to wear away her pride.Once upon a time, it had been difficult for her to imagine what it was like to kneel to people, but i

    Ling Yiran's face could not help but turn a little red. Subconsciously, she wanted to turn away.However, his fingers were under her chin the very next moment. "Sis seemed to be watching me intently just now. Why? Do you think I'm good looking?"She choked. How was she supposed to answer? Should she say that he was good looking? Or that he was not?Either one did not seem like a good answer! Ling Yiran felt her face burning and tried to avoid his gaze, but she was unable to do so.The servant who was on the side tactfully looked down, but the mere sound of their conversation roused a tempest in her heart.Young Master Yi treated Miss Ling differently. Was it true that Miss Ling would someday be the mistress of the Yi family as some people had said?However, did Miss Ling not work as a sanitation service worker at the Sanitation Service Center?Was it possible for... Young Master Yi to marry such a woman?...At night, Ling Yiran laid in bed. She was still awake and looking at

    He paused slightly as he caressed her fingertips. "Why do you want to go back so soon?""I've recovered from my injury. There's no reason for me to live here anymore." She bit her lip slightly."Do you want to get out of here?" His face grew cold."Yes." She nodded."Are you that desperate to stay away from me?" Even his voice had grown cold."I'm used to being alone," she said.He gave a sudden sneer. "Used to being alone? If that's the case, why did you take me home in the first place? It was you who said that you're too lonely, so you wanted someone to accompany you. It was also you who said you want to be with me and want us to rely on each other. Have you forgotten all this?"Her eyelashes quivered a little. How could she have forgotten that? However, it was all a joke now.She was silent, and he looked at her steadily. The suffocating pressure was in the air again.Suddenly, his voice rang in her ears once again. "You said you want to leave because your wound has more or

    The huge room was as cool as water at night. It was so cold that one could catch a cold!...As soon as Ling Luoyin got home, she heard that her mother had been dismissed from her job and that her father was also demoted from a supervisor to a regular employee!"How can this be?" Ling Luoyin said in surprise. Both of her parents worked in the public sector, and in this sector, as long as one did not make any mistakes, they would not get demoted at all, let alone fired.Besides, she was still Gu Lichen's girlfriend! Even if the head of the sector wanted to fire and demote her parents, they should also consider that!"Didn't you tell your superiors that I'm now Gu Lichen's girlfriend?" Ling Luoyin said."We did. Of course, we did." At the mention of this, Fang Cuie became very angry. She had told her boss that her daughter was the entertainment industry's prince's girlfriend and that in the future, she would marry into a rich and powerful family.However, Fang Cuie’s boss ignored

    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!

    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
