Ling Yiran's face could not help turning red. She bit her lip a little and said to Zhuo Qianyun, "He's my boyfriend.""Your boyfriend?!" Zhuo Qianyun's eyes widened immediately. She had felt something between them from their conversation earlier.However... Boyfriend?! Yiran had a boyfriend?! He seemed like an enigmatic man too!Yes, enigmatic.This was what Zhuo Qianyun felt. Even though the man had a smile on his face and looked harmless, she would never think that the man was harmless. Instead, her instinct told her that the man was dangerous.There was something supercilious about the man."Yes, my boyfriend," replied Ling Yiran."Hello, I'm Zhuo Qianyun, the owner of this restaurant," said Zhuo Qianyun as she introduced herself."Hello, I'm Yi Jinli," said Yi Jinli.Zhuo Qianyun was once again stunned. The surprise in her eyes grew more and more evident.This Yi Jinli was not the person she had in mind, right? Zhuo Qianyun could only feel her head spinning right now.Gu
Zhuo Qianyun thought of earlier when she pulled Ling Yiran aside to ask about it. She had given her a definite answer."Yes, Sis Zhuo. He's the Yi Jinli from Yi Group." Well, that was what Yiran said to her.Zhuo Qianyun felt as if her head had been hit by wave after wave of thunder. She was a little overwhelmed.Was the delivery girl in her restaurant Yi Jinli's girlfriend? Who would believe it if she told them?When Ling Yiran said she still had food to deliver, Yi Jinli unexpectedly said, "Then I'll wait for you here. I'm free anyway."She then went out to deliver food while Yi Jinli stayed here and read his book!Zhuo Qianyun thought she had been through a lot, but now she was a little confused.Why would Yiran work for her when she had a boyfriend of this caliber? Was Yi Jinli… serious about Yiran?However, the way they were around each other did not look fake. At least an outsider like her could see that Yi Jinli was completely doting on Yiran.After seeing that Yi Jinli
"I see... I won't say anything to her." Zhuo Qianyun hesitated and said, "I only found out today that Yiran is your girlfriend. I never wanted to use her. I only hired her because she had been to prison just like me and I empathized with her, so I wanted to give her a chance."The iciness in Yi Jinli's eyes dissipated a little. "I'm not going to interfere in the affairs between you and Ye Wenming. I just want Yiran to work safely at your restaurant. You can call me anytime if something has happened to her."With that, he gave Zhuo Qianyun his phone number.Zhuo Qianyun hurriedly wrote it down. Not many people in Shen City could get his phone number, but she managed to get it under such circumstances.However, Yi Jinli said that he would not interfere in the affairs between her and Ye Wenming, which meant that he would not tell Ye Wenming about her whereabouts.This made Zhuo Qianyun relieved.Yi Jinli stayed in the restaurant and had dinner with Ling Yiran there.By the end of t
These days, he would lie on the same bed with her inside the bedroom overnight. Even though the two did nothing in particular, it seemed that sleeping in the same space had become an unconscious habit.Ling Yiran had to have the lights turned on to sleep, so she said euphemistically, “You can’t seem to get used to me constantly turning on the lights to sleep. Perhaps you should go back to your room and sleep there.”Consequently, Yi Jinli replied, “I want to sleep with you, Sis. I feel more comfortable sleeping with you. It doesn’t matter to me if the lights are on.”Hence, Ling Yiran decided to keep the next few sentences to herself.However, the words Yi Jinli had uttered were... somewhat coquettish! Did he not know that such words were capable of causing inappropriate reveries?“Are you going to sleep?” Yi Jinli asked as he watched Ling Yiran walk toward the bed. “Yeah,” Ling Yiran responded with a flustered face.Ling Yiran lifted the quilt and got on the bed. Yi Jinli’s ar
“But, even if Gu Lichen wants to snatch you away, he can’t, right? Because the person you like is me, and the person you are destined to fall in love with in the future is also me, right?”Yi Jinli murmured out loud with his warm breath that then brushed her face. As soon as his voice fell silent, a kiss also landed on her lips.He would never let anyone else have her, and she would only be his!...When Ling Yiran woke up the next day, Yi Jinli had already gone to work. After Ling Yiran had her breakfast, she began to prepare lunch for Yi Jinli.Lunch boxes and ingredients were readily available in the Yi Residence. Additionally, there was a chef nearby that had received instructions as well. If Ling Yiran were to face any difficulties or needed help, the chef would lend her a hand.After Yi Jinli’s lunch boxes was made, Ling Yiran took a look at it and felt that her craftsmanship seemed to have improved.Ling Yiran brought the lunch boxes along and headed for the Yi Group. How
Since she was able to follow the conversation, she became even more embarrassed.Consequently, Yi Jinli responded, “It’s her.”“Oh. What’s going on between you two, Jin? Are you lovers?” Foreigners were known to be more straightforward with their way of phrasing things. If it were any other domestic employee, they would not have dared to ask Yi Jinli such a question in such a direct manner.Then, Ling Yiran heard Yi Jinli respond in English, “She’s the person I love the most.”In an instant, Ling Yiran felt as if her heart had been clenched tightly by an invisible hand. Not only that, but her heartbeats became stagnated. After the video conference was over, Yi Jinli walked toward Ling Yiran. “What’s wrong, why are you blushing?”“No… It’s nothing,” Ling Yiran quickly replied.Nevertheless, Yi Jinli held onto Ling Yiran as he persistently looked at her blushing face. “Is it because of the words those people said earlier?” Ling Yiran did not respond, but it seemed to be the c
On the other line, Zhuo Qianyun’s voice was heard, “Yiran, Lil Yan’s surgery went well. The doctor said that once Lil Yan stabilizes in the next two days, he can start with systematic training to recognize voices.”“That’s great.” Ling Yiran was ecstatic to hear the news. “Alright, I’ll come over to visit Lil Yan this afternoon.”With that said, Ling Yiran asked about the specific ward Lil Yan was in before ending the call.“Is it about the child who has hearing problems?” Yi Jinli asked while looking at Ling Yiran.“Yeah, Lil Yan’s operation went well. I’m free this afternoon, so I’m planning to go to the hospital to see him,” Ling Yiran replied.“Then, I’ll go with you,” Yi Jinli said.“You want to come with me?” Ling Yiran was bewildered and her eyes were wide open. “But… don’t you still have work?”“I’ll just ask the secretary to postpone this afternoon’s affairs a little bit. Furthermore, they’re not urgent,” Yi Jinli said indifferently.However, Ling Yiran was well aware
Ling Yiran could not help but think, ‘Was she really that important in his heart? They had only known each other for six short months now; could his feelings for her really be that deep?’However, it seemed like Yi Jinli had no reason to lie to her.She had nothing to offer, so there was no use in deceiving her, right?“Would it be okay, Sis?” Yi Jinli had a magnetic voice that carried an unignorable desire as he asked the same question the third time.“Then… I’ll cook more when I have the time.” Ling Yiran returned to her senses and felt that her heart was beating intensely.“Okay,” Yi Jinli chuckled lightly.Ling Yiran hurriedly lowered her head and cleaned up the lunch boxes on the table. However, just when she was about to close their lids, she hissed out and subconsciously pulled her fingers back. She heaved out a pained breath.“What’s the matter?” Yi Jinli asked anxiously.“It’s nothing, it’s just my nail. I chipped it accidentally. I’ll trim it when I get back,” Ling Yi
