It had been a long time since she felt this way. Even though she knew that Ling Yiran was with Yi Jinli, she did not think that Ling Yiran had beaten her. After all, she was Lichen's official girlfriend.However, Ling Luoyin now felt that she was being outdone.Gu Lichen came back to his senses and said to Ling Yiran, "It seems quite a coincidence to see you again.""Hello," Ling Yiran responded simply.Gu Lichen turned his eyes to Yi Jinli. "I didn't expect you to be here today.""I brought Yiran here to show her around. After all, there are some people she is bound to know someday," Yi Jinli said lightly. However, there was just too much information in that one sentence.Ling Luoyin was shocked. What did he mean by 'bound to know'? Was Yi Jinli… hinting that he would marry Ling Yiran someday?Ling Luoyin felt another pang of jealousy at the thought of this, but she put on a smile and said, "Long time no see, Sis. Speaking of which, I've been wanting to apologize to you. Mom an
Gu Lichen even had a hunch that if he did not let go, Yi Jinli might just break his wrist.There was really no need to fall out with Jinli for a mere woman. After all, Ling Yiran was not the one he was looking for. Had he not figured it out earlier?Gu Lichen lowered his eyes before loosening his fingers with a faint smile, and Ling Yiran's wrist was instantly free."I'm sorry, I seem to have forgotten my manners just now. Miss Ling reminded me of an old friend," said Gu Lichen."She's not your old friend. Don't forget your manners again," Yi Jinli said coldly before grabbing Ling Yiran's hand and leaving.Gu Lichen's eyes were clouded as he looked at Ling Yiran's departing back. Ling Luoyin, who was beside Gu Lichen, wanted to scream.Was she not? She should be! If the portrait she saw in Lichen's studio was indeed the old friend Lichen was referring to, then she was certain that the girl was Ling Yiran.She remembered the dress Ling Yiran wore, what the little girl in the port
It's rare for Ling Yiran to hear Yi Jinli call someone a friend, so Ye Chongwei was probably close to him. "Hello, I'm Ling Yiran."Ling Yiran introduced herself gracefully."Hello, I've wanted to meet you for a long time now, but I haven’t had a chance," Ye Chongwei said with a smile. After all, he had always been curious about the woman who managed to capture his best friend's heart.On the eve of the Lunar New Year, Ye Chongwei was shocked and intrigued by the fact that his best friend brought a group of police officers to the town next to Shen City for her. He even left Old Master Yi behind for her.Now, after meeting Ling Yiran, Ye Chongwei thought that even though she was not stunningly beautiful, her eyes gave people a sense of comfort—it was gentle and relaxing.Standing alongside Ling Yiran, Jinli also seemed more relaxed than usual.Ye Chongwei immediately understood why his best friend fell in love with Ling Yiran. People like them were often in a treacherous environme
Ye Chongwei gulped the saliva in his mouth. All right, it was obvious that Ling Yiran, whom he had just met, would one day marry into the Yi family and become their mistress."Well, she's really lucky then," muttered Ye Chongwei."I'm the lucky one," Yi Jinli let out a whisper. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that her misfortune had made him lucky.If the accident had not happened, she might have married Xiao Ziqi and bore his child by now. She would not have met him the way they did and he would not know that it was such a pleasant thing to be by her side.Ye Chongwei was shocked when he heard this.He was only thinking of one thing at this moment—Jinli had really fallen for Ling Yiran!...Ling Yiran took a glass of champagne from the waiter and drank it. It had a low alcohol content and a fruity taste. It tasted pretty good.However, she could not take too much of it. She was not a good drinker. She would get drunk easily if she drank too much.She looked around as
"By the way, I wonder what your relationship is with Yi Jinli? Why don't you tell us and satisfy our curiosity?" asked Lu Zhener.Ling Yiran smiled and said, "That's personal, and I don't think it's convenient to tell you."As soon as she said this, the three women suddenly took on a ghastly expression. Wang Yuqian, the daughter of a chairman of a convenience store chain, immediately said, "That's not a very nice thing to say. Is there something shameful in the story that you dare not tell us?"Ling Yiran's face darkened a little. There it was… Even though she wanted to avoid it, she could not.Zhao Yingyi, the granddaughter of a five-star hotel owner, stared at Ling Yiran's face with a slight frown. She looked as if she was thinking about something.Wang Yuqian continued to probe aggressively, "Could it be that you played some tricks to get involved with Yi Jinli?"Ling Yiran pursed her lips slightly. "Sorry, I've got something to do, so I need to go," she said and tried to leav
Wang Yuqian and Lu Zhener were surprised to hear this.Wang Yuqian suddenly laughed. "I thought you were someone important, but it turns out that you’re a murderer. Does Yi Jinli know that you're the one who killed Hao Meiyu?"Wang Yuqian could not wait to see the expression on Ling Yiran's face when Yi Jinli found out that Ling Yiran was the culprit in the car accident.In her opinion, Yi Jinli must be in the dark about this. Otherwise, how could he let Ling Yiran show up so glamorously as his date at the banquet?Lu Zhener pursed her lips into a smile. "By the way, Xiao Ziqi is also in attendance today. I even saw him and Hao Yimeng just now. How about we let you ex-couples meet?"Wang Yuqian got excited at this though. She immediately looked around the venue. As it happened, Xiao Ziqi and Hao Yimeng were not far away.Wang Yuqian shouted in their direction, "Your ex-girlfriend is here, Xiao Ziqi. Won't you come and meet her?"Wang Yuqian's voice was not soft. It was not just
"Yes," Zhao Yingyi also helped by saying, "This woman has no shame. I don't know what she did to cheat Yi Jinli. Yi Jinli probably doesn't even know that this woman has been to prison."When Hao Yimeng and Xiao Ziqi heard this, their eyes flashed with surprise. Xiao Ziqi tried to say something, but Hao Yimeng gave Xiao Ziqi a nudge, implying him not to say anything.Ling Yiran just felt that there were more and more people looking at her, and many had heard what Wang Yuqian and the rest said earlier. They now looked at her with a mixture of surprise, disdain, and sarcasm. It was as if they were watching a show.Ling Yiran sighed to herself. After all, she could not change what had happened to her.Not wanting to be laughed at again, Ling Yiran turned around and once again tried to leave.However, just after she had taken two steps, her body suddenly gave a jolt as she heard a ripping sound.Ling Yiran turned around and saw that the hem of her gown had been stepped on by one of Wa
"They criticized me a little and trampled over my dress," said Ling Yiran, not wanting to vent her frustrations there. "Sorry, you brought me here today. I'm afraid I...""What's there to apologize for? It was I who neglected you and caused this to happen to you today," Yi Jinli interrupted her.As he spoke, he crouched down and gently tied her ripped hem into a knot to keep it from dragging on the ground in case she ended up stepped on it herself.When Yi Jinli crouched down, everyone around them gasped. They had not expected Shen City's famous Young Master Yi to kneel in front of a woman like that.After helping Ling Yiran with the hem of her dress, Yi Jinli once again tilted his chin back slightly, looked up at Ling Yiran, and asked. "Did you get hurt anywhere?"Now, Yi Jinli was crouching, and his head was thrown back. On the other hand, Ling Yiran was standing with her head lowered. The two were looking at each other, and for a moment, Ling Yiran felt as if Yi Jinli was subdu
