Once Yi Jinli and the rest entered the meeting room, someone from the front desk walked up to Guan Lili. "Give me your phone, Lili. I'll copy the recording.""Why should I?" Guan Lili clutched her phone tightly. She was not a fool. How could she give such evidence against herself to others?However, he looked at her as if he was looking at a fool. "Because that person is Yi Jinli. Count yourself lucky that you only have to hand in the recording on your phone. As long as you keep your mouth shut, Ling Yiran probably won't do anything, but if you..."The man had not finished his sentence when he was interrupted by Guan Lili's cry. "What did you say? That man is Yi Jinli?""Yes, Yi Jinli is here today with Ling Yiran to reverse her case!" the man said.Guan Lili looked shocked, her eyes almost bulging.'Yi Jinli... How is it possible that Ling Yiran's boyfriend is Yi Jinli? It was Yi Jinli's fiancée that Ling Yiran ran over and killed!'He even wants to reverse her case?'Does tha
Ling Yiran was shocked and immediately understood what Yi Jinli meant.Hao Meiyu was the eldest daughter of the Hao family and was even the president of Hao Group back then. The Hao family had two daughters, but Hao Yimeng developed her career in the entertainment industry while Hao Meiyu was groomed as the heiress of the Hao family.Moreover, Hao Meiyu was Yi Jinli's fiancée at the time.Wan Yuming was probably afraid that the law would not sentence him to any punishment but that the Hao and Yi families would harm him instead.Figuring that out, Ling Yiran was able to see why Wan Yuming would go to the trouble to do so.With all this evidence in front of her, Ling Yiran knew there was a good chance that the case would be reversed once they appealed. The only problem was that Wan Yuming was probably abroad now.Even if she did get her case reversed, it would be very difficult to bring him to justice. After all, he was now in a country where it had no extradition treaty with their
Ling Yiran sipped one mouthful after another, allowing the feeling of lightness to surround her.Yi Jinli drank with her and poured more for her each time her glass became empty."Sometimes, I find fate funny, Jin," murmured Ling Yiran, swirling the wine in the glass."What do you mean?" he asked."You see, the evidence in my case all pointed at me back then, and I couldn't argue against it. During those three years in prison, I spent every day thinking about what the truth of the case was, about who wanted to frame me, and how much trouble it would take to get all these witnesses and evidence to point at me..."Ling Yiran laughed at herself as she said, "I even suspected everyone around me. I wondered who it could be and who would have such a grudge against me."Her words entered his ear one by one. They felt like a sledgehammer hitting his heart so hard that he felt his heart throb in pain.She lifted her chin slightly toward him and said with a smile, "You know what, Jin? I n
He carefully prepared the food and fed her.If anyone who knew Yi Jinli saw this, their jaw would drop. After all, when did Young Master Yi ever wait on someone like this?This scene naturally became an attraction in the bar without them knowing.It was already late in the evening and the bar was getting more and more crowded. Naturally, a lot of people were looking in the direction of Yi Jinli and Ling Yiran.After all, Yi Jinli was extremely good-looking. In a place like a bar, he was the number one choice for many women to flirt with.When Yi Jinli was feeding Ling Yiran so carefully, many women were starting to fall for him.Nothing could feel better than to be fed by such a man who looked at you like you were his treasure.Therefore, even though Yi Jinli had Ling Yiran by his side, many women were still itching to give it a shot.After all, in a place like a bar, many things could be made possible.Moments later, a gorgeous woman in a tight dress came forward. She smiled
The woman yelled in her heart. She was afraid of the man, so she was going to leave. There was plenty of fish in the sea anyway!"I... I think I'd better leave now..." The woman smiled awkwardly and wanted to walk away."Wait..." Ling Yiran cried out, looking somewhat annoyed.'Wait? Like hell I'll wait!' The woman had no intention of stopping.Then, Yi Jinli's cold voice also rang. "Just wait."'Huh?' The woman was stunned, but before she could come to her senses, she was stopped by two powerful men who appeared out of nowhere. She was forced to return to the table.The woman was very regretful right now. Why did she have to flirt with him? Looking at the current situation, the man was obviously not the type to be messed with.'Who knows what will happen to me later!'"Well... Let's just talk it out. If I said something wrong or did something wrong, I... I apologize to both of you!" the woman said cautiously.Yi Jinli ignored her and just looked at Ling Yiran. He said, "Well,
”Is this man really mine?”Without realizing it, she uttered the question.Then, she heard his voice say, "Yes, I'm yours."The sound was so lovely that it was almost divine.Her lips just fell on his lips as she kissed him! 'If he's mine, then... I can kiss him any way I want!'...At the bar, the woman still looked traumatized about what had just happened to her.'Who the hell... Is that man? He seems unusual with bodyguards protecting him.' When the man named Jin finally left while holding the drunk woman in his arms, she saw the wristwatch he was wearing. It was a limited edition watch of a famous brand she had seen on the internet before.It seemed that there were only three in the world and it cost hundreds of millions of dollars!Maybe she was wrong, or maybe the man was just wearing a knockoff.'However... What if the man is wearing the real thing?' The woman's heart suddenly stopped at the thought of this.'If that man named Jin is wearing a watch worth hundreds of
The kiss was getting deeper and deeper. She was like a naughty child when drunk, kissing him while her hands were busy stirring up the fire in his body.Yi Jinli felt like he was losing control.Suddenly, he grabbed her hands and gasped as he said, "That's... That's enough… Yiran."If it went on like this, he might just have his way with her in the car.Ling Yiran blinked like a small animal, naive confusion in her eyes.'Enough? Why do I think it's not enough... Not nearly enough?'I want him! I want him to always be there for me. It seems that with him around, I won't have to be afraid!'"Jin..." she mumbled, her hands running unsteadily over his cheek. Her drunken eyes were finally on his face after focusing for some time. "You're... Hic... So good-looking," she murmured, hiccuping in between.Those delicate eyebrows and eyes looked as if they were painted on by an artist. They looked surreal.'Is this man really my boyfriend? He's... Even going to marry me?'"I've seen ph
"Forgive me, Yiran. Forgive me no matter what, all right?"However, he could only beg when she was asleep because he did not dare to say it in her presence.When he was done changing her clothes, he covered her with a thin quilt and was about to get up when her fingers grabbed his sleeve. Then, her eyes drifted open. "I forgive you, Jin..."He was shocked. His deep eyes looked at her in surprise. 'Did she know what she was saying?'The corners of her lips were raised as if she were smiling, and her eyes were red from the crying earlier. It formed a strange contrast. "I... Don't know why you'd ask me to forgive you, but I'll forgive you. I'll forgive you... Because... You're Jin..."Once she finished talking, she wearily closed her eyes and fell asleep again.Yi Jinli stared blankly at her, then bent down and kissed her forehead."Yes, I'm Jin, your Jin..." he murmured. 'Even if... You won't forgive me, I won't let you go!'It was because she had become indispensable to him...
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
