"You're regarding me as an outsider if you say that. Yiran, we said we'd be friends forever. You mustn't keep such things from me in the future. I don't want to learn about what happened to my friends from the news," said Qin Lianyi."Got it." Ling Yiran found her nose a little sore.That was how Lianyi behaved. If she regarded someone as a friend, she would treat them wholeheartedly.The next day, Qin Lianyi met with Ling Yiran and learned the details of the case, including how Wan Yuming was the mastermind behind it."I can't believe he’d frame someone else just because he was afraid of being involved. However, now that you've proved your innocence, what are you going to do next?" Qin Lianyi said emotionally."I have no idea," said Ling Yiran. She had some expectations but also some hesitation for her future."Are you going to become a lawyer again?" asked Qin Lianyi.Ling Yiran chuckled bitterly. "I haven't been in the business for four years. I don't know if I can do it yet.
The man uttered a series of words, all in defense of Hao Yimeng. He behaved just like a fan of Hao Yimeng’s.Ling Yiran frowned a little, picked up a couple of books she had chosen, and went over to the cashier to pay for them. She planned to look for Qin Lianyi after paying.However, the man did not give up and continued to follow Ling Yiran. He went on with his speech, wanting Ling Yiran to declare online that she was willing to forgive Hao Yimeng and even took out his phone to film her.Ling Yiran frowned more deeply. "You have no right to film me without my consent!""You feel guilty, don't you? I'm just filming with my phone. What's that got to do with you? You haven't publicly responded to Hao Yimeng's apology. You don't have a secret, do you? Is it possible that you want to rekindle your relationship with Xiao Ziqi?"The man exaggerated as if to spur some hot gossip.Ling Yiran hurriedly paid the bill. She was hoping to find Qin Lianyi, but more and more people had gathere
There were already a lot of people gathered on Ling Yiran's side. With that scream, more people gathered around her.Gu Lichen frowned slightly. The next moment, he pulled Ling Yiran into a parked car and drove away.The car just sped off, leaving the crowd of people who had gathered there unable to do nothing but stare. Then, they began to discuss Ling Yiran and Gu Lichen’s relationship.After getting into the car, Ling Yiran said to Gu Lichen, "Thank you for just now. Just drop me off somewhere around here."However, instead of stopping the car, Gu Lichen asked, "What the hell is going on?""Some stranger recognized me. After all, my recent case reversal became hot internet gossip because of Hao Yimeng's apology. Please stop the car. My friend’s still in the bookstore and I have to meet her later!" said Ling Yiran.Gu Lichen pressed his thin lips together slightly and finally pulled up to the side of the road.Ling Yiran tried to get out of the car, but Gu Lichen stopped her.
"What kind of job do you want to do?" He had asked at the time, for everything was so easy for him that he did not have to work hard for it.Just like how some people were born with everything.Besides… ‘Job’ was a word he had never thought of.However, this person who was a year or two his junior was already thinking of such things?"I haven't decided yet, but I want to just have a job that’ll protect not only myself but also people I like!" she had answered.'Just?'Being born in an upper-class family, he knew from the influence he received since childhood that there was no absolute justice, and sometimes, the so-called justice was just self-deception.However, her eyes were so serious that some words seemed stuck in his throat.When time passed and he finally found the little girl, he found that Hua Lifang did not have the job she mentioned and her eyes no longer held that look of justice.However, it was ironic that there was such a look in Ling Yiran's eyes instead."Do
"I... I'm sorry!" She apologized quickly. The pain in her wrist was easing her headache."Why’d you touch me? Why’d you call me by that name? Ling Yiran, do you really have no feelings for me at all?" His eyes were fixed on her.Her face paled and reddened. "You… You’ve misunderstood!""Misunderstood?" He chuckled suddenly."Then tell me what kind of misunderstanding will make you call me by my nickname again and again, and even touch my face with your hand."She bit her lower lip. For a moment, she did not know what to say, so she could only say, "It's not what you think. I won't do it again. I had a headache, and I mistook you for someone else.""Mistook me? Was calling me by the name ‘Chenchen’ a mistake too?" he murmured."You're not the only one in the world called ‘Chenchen’," she retorted.Just then, Qin Lianyi was already in the vicinity. Seeing her, Ling Yiran said to Gu Lichen, "My friend’s here. Let go of me. I need to get off."Gu Lichen listened, but his dark phoeni
...Yi Jinli looked at the photos on his phone. They were all photos of Gu Lichen pulling Ling Yiran into a car.Although they had just been posted online, it was already a hot topic.Many were even speculating about the relationship between Ling Yiran and Gu Lichen.Gao Congming looked fearfully at his boss who was staring darkly at the phone in his hand. Then, he finally mustered the courage to say lamely, "Well... Mr. Gu had appeared too quickly. The bodyguards who were in charge of secretly protecting Miss Ling didn't even have the chance to..."His bright eyes just stared at the photo on the phone while his fingers tightened."Get rid of these. I don't want to see them online anymore," Yi Jinli ordered coldly after a while."Yes," Gao Congming hastily replied and got out of the president's office.In the quiet room, Yi Jinli's finger gently caressed Ling Yiran's figure on the phone screen. Finally, it landed on the spot where Gu Lichen was holding Ling Yiran's wrist.Gu L
"Something happened when I was buying the books in the bookstore. Then, I met Gu Lichen," Ling Yiran said without hiding anything.After all, she did not want someone else to tell him and cause him to misunderstand.His eyes rested on her face. "Then what?""People were filming me with their phones and there were a lot of people looking on. Gu Lichen helped me by taking me away in his car. He stopped the car a few hundred meters away from the bookstore, and I got out to meet Lianyi."She gave a rough account of what had happened."Jin, I don't want you to misunderstand anything. It just so happened that Gu Lichen passed by today," said Ling Yiran.If she felt differently about Gu Lichen, it was only because her strange dreams had made her wonder.His eyelashes quivered a little, then he stretched out his arms to embrace her. "I won't misunderstand anything because I know I'm the one you love most, right?""Mmm," she replied softly, leaning against his chest and feeling his cool
"Jin, I want you," her red lips said the words as he had wished.The next moment, his body covered her......Hua Lifang looked at her phone and could not find what she had seen before.The news of Gu Lichen holding Ling Yiran's hand suddenly broke out on the internet, and she only found the photos on the news offensive to the eye.'In Lichen's mind, I should be the one who saved him! Why did he have to rescue Ling Yiran in public and even drag Ling Yiran into his car?'In the photo, the way he looked at Ling Yiran... Was as if... He cared more about her than anything!'If Lichen knows that Ling Yiran is the one he’s looking for…' Hua Lifang did not dare to think more about it.Just then, a voice suddenly rang out, "Hey, why is someone still staring at their phone? The latest gossip about the crown prince has long been removed from the web. He must’ve done it to protect the woman!"Then, another voice said in agreement, "That's right. Someone thought she could get into a rich
