Some reporters discovered that Ling Luoyin was selling off her house and jewelry. Even the house her parents lived in was put on sale online, presumably to gather money for the penalty for breach of contract.A busybody managed to get all of Ling Luoyin’s uncompleted contracts and worked out that the total amount of compensation was estimated to be more than 70 million dollars.For Ling Luoyin, a D-list actress with a normal family background, this was a big number. Selling all her possessions might not even be enough to cover it.Ling Yiran looked at the news on her phone, and one of the photos showed information about her family home that they had given the real estate agent.There were some collages of the interior of the house in the information.The Ling family's sale price online was 5,800,000 dollars.The house with memories of her and her mother was now up for sale for 5,800,000. Ling Yiran felt a little emotional.Actually, after so many years, there were hardly any tra
Yi Jinli said, "Now that you've mentioned it, there's no harm in telling you." Even if he did not tell her now, she would know about it soon.After all, it was not really a secret in Shen City's high society.He might as well tell her himself rather than have someone else break the story to her."Gu Lichen is indeed looking for someone. He’s looking for a girl he knew when he was young, but he still hasn’t found her. You can say that his girlfriends are substitutes for that girl. Since he can't find the right person, he finds replacements to comfort himself instead," Yi Jinli said as he watched Ling Yiran's reaction.Ling Yiran could not help furrowing her brows. "He's looking for a substitute for a little girl?""His ex-girlfriends look more or less like that little girl.”"But they're not the one he's looking for. Is it fun to keep looking for substitutes?" she asked."Maybe he's too obsessed with it, or maybe he’s on the verge of despair. After all, maybe he doesn't even thin
Speaking of which, Guan Lili had deliberately ordered several times ever since learning she was delivering food here. How could Ling Yiran not know what Guan Lili was thinking?"What's the matter? Is there something wrong with the order?" asked Zhuo Qianyun from the cashier counter."It's nothing." Ling Yiran chuckled. Then, she picked up the order, walked over to her electric bike, and rode off toward the law firm.When Ling Yiran went into the firm carrying Guan Lili’s food, Guan Lili came forward and said with a smile, "Hey, Yiran. Thank you so much for delivering my order again.""Don't mention it. It's my job," Ling Yiran said lightly and held her order out to her.Instead of taking it, Guan Lili suddenly took her to the general room and said to all her colleagues there, "Here, everyone. This is the person involved in the case I just told you about. She's also our former colleague, Ling Yiran."Suddenly, all eyes were on Ling Yiran.A bad feeling suddenly rose in Ling Yiran
"Help me? Those two words coming out of your mouth make me sick!" said Ling Yiran.The people around them were professional lawyers, not idiots. How could they not sense something when they heard this? Immediately, the way they looked at Guan Lili changed. It was certain that Guan Lili's reputation was ruined.Guan Lili had wanted to embarrass Ling Yiran today so that she could vent her mortified feelings after meeting Ling Yiran during her medical examination at the hospital.Who would have thought that the person being embarrassed now was herself?At once, without thinking, she picked up a cup of tea in front of her and threw it at Ling Yiran.Ling Yiran managed to avoid getting splashed on her face as she already had her defenses up and stepped back in time, but the upper half of her clothes was not spared.As the weather was hot, Ling Yiran wore nothing more than a white shirt. It was now wet from the tea and her undergarment beneath was visible.Guan Lili's colleagues did n
Her hands, which had fallen to her sides, were clenched into fists. It was some kind of oppressive tolerance.The boss had checked her information previously and knew that she was imprisoned for the death of Hao Meiyu after a car accident.However, he did not go through the details of the case. Now, listening to what others were saying, she... Pleaded not guilty at the trial, saying she was wrong.Was she really wronged? Hao Meiyu's death had nothing to do with her?The colleague simply explained the incident without taking any sides, but how could someone who was the boss of the firm not understand the fishy business in it? Immediately, the way he looked at Guan Lili grew a little colder. Then, he turned to look at Ling Yiran."Yiran, I'm sorry this happened to you. How about this? The firm will compensate you for any of your losses. You can list it out later," said the boss.Ling Yiran said lightly, "No thanks, I still have work!"Taking a deep breath, she looked at Gu Lichen,
Guan Lili felt speechless right now.Just then, a colleague who often disagreed with Guan Lili sneered and said, "Hey, someone who wanted to embarrass an ex-colleague ends up getting embarrassed herself. Maybe she can't be a lawyer anymore by tomorrow, just like the ex-colleague. This is a good example for the rookies!"Guan Lili's face turned pale suddenly. Long gone was her usual silver tongue. Her eyes were full of panic.If that happened, she would be nothing but a joke to lawyers from now on!Had she known this would happen, she would never have plotted it!...Ling Yiran reached the ground floor of the building, but before she could reach her electric bike, Gu Lichen ran up and grabbed her arm. "Why would you rather run around the streets in a tea-stained shirt like this than accept my kindness? Do you hate me? Is that why you don't even want to touch my stuff?"Ling Yiran tried to pull her arm out of his hand, but it was to no avail. He grabbed her fingers even tighter.
"It's... Just over there." She pointed to the clothing shop.To her surprise, Gu Lichen followed her into the shop, saying that she was now wrapped in his suit jacket and that he would take it back once she had changed her clothes.Ling Yiran had to quickly change into a cheap T-shirt from the shop.While Ling Yiran picked out her clothes, Yi Jinli was in Yi Group's president's office. He was listening to his private secretary, Gao Congming's, reports with a gloomy face."Yes, we've talked to all the news media. They’re not allowed to publish any news about Miss Ling, so these three media won’t dare to publish it this time," said Gao Congming.It started after all three media outlets simultaneously received anonymous emails with racy photos of Ling Yiran and Gu Lichen."Who did this? Did you find out the culprit?" asked Yi Jinli."We're looking into it. They’re obviously trying to keep themselves from being found out, so they've tampered with things," said Gao Congming."Find o
He wanted to hear her voice because hearing her voice would reassure him!A moment later, the call was answered, but what came through was a voice Yi Jinli had not thought of."Jinli?"That was... Gu Lichen's voice.Yi Jinli's heart sank immediately. Almost mechanically, he said, "It's me. Why are you answering Yiran's phone?""She's changing her clothes. Her phone and bag are outside... Shall I tell her to call you back later?" Gu Lichen's voice said lightly."It's all right." Yi Jinli ended the call.When the call was over, Gu Lichen lowered his eyes and looked at the phone in his hand.Just now, after seeing the caller ID on Ling Yiran's phone spelling out ‘Jin’, he answered the call as if he was momentarily possessed.Usually, he would never answer someone else's phone call.However... He had done that just now. Was it because it was Yi Jinli who called?The man who he previously thought would never fall in love with any woman, fell in love with a woman he was also inter
