Yi Jinli led Ling Yiran forward, and Ye Wenming could not help being a little surprised to see the two of them. "We meet again. I never thought Young Master Yi would be interested in fairs.""I came here to meet Lawyer Wen today," said Yi Jinli. Then, he turned to Wen He and said, "Hello, Lawyer Wen. I'm Yi Jinli, and this is my fiancée, Ling Yiran. She's been dying to meet you.""Meet me?" Wen He was shocked when Yi Jinli told her his name.'Yi Jinli! Is this the so-called local tyrant of Shen City? He's someone you can't offend in Shen City.'He was younger and more charismatic than she had imagined.Then, her eyes fell on Ling Yiran.Since she wanted to come to Shen City, she had also followed Shen City's news. These days, the reversal of a case from nearly four years ago was not only viral in the tabloids but also among the lawyers."I know you," Wen He said to Ling Yiran.Ling Yiran was stunned, then she realized that Wen He must have known about her case!Wen He, who was
Even though Ye Wenming probably did not want this son at all, Sis Zhuo could not take any risks lest Lil Yan was taken away from her."I quite like that kid," said Ye Wenming. There was a smile on his normally serious face. "I was wondering if I could see that boy again with my visit to Shen City this time.”'He wants to see Lil Yan?' Ling Yiran suddenly found her nose a little sore.This was the man who made Sis Zhuo so miserable and left Lil Yan without a father at birth.While he was living a life of luxury with people at his beck and call, Sis Zhuo had struggled in prison.However, now he said he wanted to meet Lil Yan—The son he did not even know existed. It was greatly ironic."No." Ling Yiran rejected almost subconsciously.As she had refused too fast and too firmly, Ye Wenming was a little stunned. There was a hint of confusion in his narrow and deep eyes."Miss Ling, if you find it troublesome, you can give me his contact information. I'll go and visit him myself. I'd
'Damn it!'Crack!As the sound of glass cracking rang out, the glass in Ye Wenming's hand broke and pierced his hand.Immediately, blood ran down his right hand.He had held the glass so hard that he broke it!Wen He gasped. "You...""It’s nothing. Something came to my mind. Sorry, I lost my composure," Ye Wenming said lightly.His right hand was still bleeding, but he did not seem to feel any pain.…"Today was meant to cheer you up by letting you meet Wen He, but you got angry instead," said Yi Jinli."No, I'm glad I got to meet Wen He. Jin, thank you," said Ling Yiran."Didn't Ye Wenming make you angry?" he asked."I'm angry with Ye Wenming, not with you. I just feel aggrieved for Sis Zhuo and Lil Yan. Where was he when Sis Zhuo gave birth in prison? Now, he says he wants to fund Lil Yan's treatment? Isn't it funny? That’s his own child!" said Ling Yiran.Ling Yiran choked a little as she spoke. "His child was born with hearing problems. How much had Sis Zhuo suffered,
When Gu Lichen stood in front of her, Ling Yiran was in a light trance."Why are you looking at me like that?" His cold voice rang in her ears."What?" She suddenly came back to her senses."It’s as if you were looking for something in me." He leaned forward suddenly, his face zooming in before her eyes. "I thought you're only interested in Yi Jinli. Why, is there anything in me you’re interested in?"She stepped back subconsciously, trying to avoid him.However, the heels she was wearing today were already high. The heels tilted as she stepped back, and the dress had now become a hindrance, causing her to fall backward without any time to react.The only thing she could do was instinctively reach out and grab for something!Bang!Her hand grasped another hand as if she was someone who was about to fall from a cliff and had at last grasped a chance of survival. She gripped it tightly with her five fingers.The next moment, an arm encircled her waist and stopped her from fallin
Gu Lichen did not feel any pain as all his attention was on her."Ling Yiran, let go so I can take you to the hospital," he said.'Let go? No, I can't let go, because…' "I... I won't let go. I... I'll take you up there. You must hold on to me..." Ling Yiran said these words almost unconsciously while in the throes of the pain in her head.When Gu Lichen heard these words, his body became rigid suddenly. For a split second, his blood seemed to stop flowing. He even stopped breathing.'These words... These words are…'His dark phoenix eyes stared at the person in front of him, and his face moved closer to hers as he tried to listen more closely to the vague mumbles coming out from her mouth.'Why would she say that? Only ‘she’ would know this!'Just then, a voice rang out. "Lichen, what are you trying to do to my fiancée?"The next moment, Ling Yiran's body was swept into the arms of another man, but her hand was still holding Gu Lichen's hand firmly. She would not let go.Yi
She had just let go of her hand when Gu Lichen’s hand grabbed hers in the next moment."Who the hell are you?" His intense phoenix eyes were as sharp as a sword, trying to cut her open for a closer look!Ling Yiran was stunned, and Yi Jinli's hand had already grabbed Gu Lichen's."Let go!" Yi Jinli said coldly.Gu Lichen did not care about Yi Jinli. His phoenix eyes were still fixed on Ling Yiran. "Who the hell are you?!"There was a flash of rage in Yi Jinli's eyes. Then, he pressed hard with his fingertips.An ordinary person would have let go by now, but Gu Lichen clung to Ling Yiran's hand as if he were trying to hold on to the most important thing in his life.There was a suffocating atmosphere in the air.The three's unusual state had already caught passersby's attention, many of who recognized Yi Jinli and Gu Lichen.The two men, who held sway in Shen City, were now having a dispute over a woman.Of course, a scene like this would make people curious and surprised.Hu
Only then did Gu Lichen seem to notice Hua Lifang. Sadness immediately flashed in his eyes.'What's wrong with me? Lifang is right here. What else do I suspect?'Or should I say... What am I hoping for?'Gu Lichen's fingers finally let go little by little, and Ling Yiran quickly pulled back her hand.With a gloomy face, Yi Jinli carried Ling Yiran in his arms."Jin, I can walk by myself," Ling Yiran said quickly."You just had a headache. It'll be better if I carry you to the car," Yi Jinli said as he strode off toward the fair's exit.Gu Lichen watched on until they disappeared from his sight. Then, he lowered his eyes and saw the red marks on his wrists.It was the spot where Ling Yiran and Yi Jinli had gripped him so tightly earlier, but he only felt the pain in his wrist now."Lichen, are you alright? Does it hurt?" Hua Lifang looked at Gu Lichen's wrist with pain, then said with indignation, "That Yi Jinli is way out of line. If he did break your hand, I'd even sacrifice
"I just happened to meet him. Then, I almost fell, so I grabbed his hand by accident. After that, I had another headache..." she tried to explain to him what had happened, lest he would misunderstand her."Were those things you said to him really nonsense?" he asked again.She was stunned. Her voice seemed to be stuck in her throat, and she could not get the words out!'Nonsense? It wasn’t nonsense. It was what the little girl said to the little boy in my dreams.'However, how am I supposed to answer that question?'I don't want to lie to him, but I don't want him to misunderstand the situation before I find out the truth."Why, is that a hard question to answer?" Her silence made him raise his head slightly. His dark bright eyes just stared at her."I... Was so dazed by the pain that I can’t even remember what I said," said Ling Yiran. This was true.As for the rest, she might have to wait until she found out the truth before she could give him an answer."Is that so?" he mut
