He even had a sense of disgust when the woman got closer to him.

Indeed, the feeling of holding another woman in his arms was very different from the feeling of holding “her”.

When he arrived in front of the rental apartment, he squatted down and took out the spare key under the mat in front of the door. He knew that she always liked to put the spare key there, saying that it was in case she forgot to take her key when she left for work.

He pushed open the door. The lights in the room were still on, and her slender figure was sitting next to the table. Half of her upper body was lying on the table, and her head was tilted to the side as she slept.

He looked at her sleeping face under the light, which was as tranquil as a chrysanthemum flower. It was so peaceful that his heart seemed to become peaceful the moment he saw her.

He raised his hand and gently fiddled with the strands of hair lying over her cheeks. It seemed that he would not get tired of looking at her even if it was fo

    On the weekend, Ling Yiran finally got some rare time off, so Qin Lianyi took her out to go shopping together.The two of them had not gone shopping for a long time. Ling Yiran felt as if she had momentarily returned to the past when she strolled around with Qin Lianyi.Before the accident, she had often gone shopping with Lianyi. She had been carefree, and her life ahead looked beautiful."Oh right, what about Jin? How much do you know about him now? For example, where is his hometown? What kind of people are in his family?" Basically, Qin Lianyi was mostly worried that her best friend would get swindled."I only know that his father has already passed away, and his mother seems to have left him. He didn't tell me anything else, and I didn't ask," Ling Yiran smiled and said."Are you dumb? Why don't you ask more in detail? You should at least know what he used to do!" Qin Lianyi said.Ling Yiran smiled faintly. "Why would I need to find out what he used to do? In the past, I tho

    "Who says we can't afford to buy it? I can..." Qin Lianyi was about to bite the bullet and just buy a set of clothes to vent her anger and make the staff stop looking down upon them.Ling Yiran held her back in time and said to the senior staff, "Can't we just have a look in the store?""You two have come to a store which is far out of your income range. You might be here to make trouble, and I am just protecting the rights of the other guests in the store." The supervisor acted as if he was being reasonable.Ling Yiran responded directly, "But you don't have any evidence against us. In fact, you are clearly discriminating against us for no good reason. By the way, what did you just said? I have already recorded it. I think this should work as a good piece of evidence for me to hand it over to the management of the mall.""You..." The supervisor's face immediately turned red. He had never thought that the other party would record his words."Ling Yiran, that's enough. You are some

    Xiao Ziqi was stunned. "Yiran!"When Xiao Ziyi saw her brother, she immediately went forward and complained, "Brother, you have no idea how shameless Ling Yiran was just now. She asked me to buy her a dress worth 4.8 million yuan. She doesn't realize that even she isn't fit to wear such a dress!""Shut your mouth!" Xiao Ziqi scolded her on the spot, and his expression became ugly. Was his sister not afraid of anything? The person behind Ling Yiran was none other than Yi Jinli. Forget a dress that cost 4.8 million yuan, she was worthy enough to wear one that was priced at 48 million yuan."Brother, what's wrong with you? Why are you raising your voice at me? I'm just talking about Ling Yiran," Xiao Ziyi said discontentedly."What's there to say?" Xiao Ziqi said grumpily. Then, he turned to the clerk next to him and said, "Pack up that dress."His sudden words shocked everyone in the store."Brother, what are you doing? Are you going to give the dress to Ling Yiran?" Xiao Ziyi aske

    Ling Yiran took the check straightforwardly and left the store with Qin Lianyi right after."Yiran, don't you think it's a little weird?" As soon as they walked out of the store, Qin Lianyi said, "Xiao Zinian actually took out 4.8 million yuan and gave it to you without hesitation. Hao Yimeng was present too! Isn't he afraid of Hao Yimeng misunderstanding it?""It is quite strange," Ling Yiran said."Could it be that Xiao Ziqi still likes you?" Qin Lianyi guessed."No, he is afraid. It seems that he is afraid that I will get mad at Xiao Ziyi and then do harm to the Xiao family," Ling Yiran voiced her intuitive speculations.Hearing this, Qin Lianyi thought it was a bit ridiculous. "Isn't he thinking too much into it?""Who knows?" Ling Yiran shrugged and raised her hand to look at the check she was holding."What are you going to do with this check? Are you going to tear it up?" she asked. She knew her friend very well. With her personality, she would never use this money."Why

    "Why should I apologize?" Xiao Ziyi said angrily.At this moment, people came over one after another. One of them recognized Hao Yimeng. After all, she was a popular star. Although she was wearing sunglasses and a hat that covered most of her face, she was still spotted out."It's Hao Yimeng. Is that her fiancé next to her?""What are they doing here?""What's wrong with the escalator? Did something happen just now?"Voices of discussion sounded around them. Qin Lianyi helped Ling Yiran walk down the escalator. Seeing this, Xiao Ziqi hurriedly caught up with them.Hao Yimeng's eyes flashed with surprise. She hadn't expected Xiao Ziqi to leave her behind and run after Ling Yiran! And the people around her began to spread the gossip."Hao Yimeng's fiancé went to chase after another woman.""Oh my god, is this a bloody love triangle?"Hao Yimeng's face was full of embarrassment. She covered her face with her hands and tried her best to avoid the cameras on the phones from the cro

    "Jin." She said, "I'm in the hospital and don't know when I'll be leaving. I'll call him and tell him not to wait for me and eat first."Ling Yiran found the name 'Jin' in her contact list and called it.After a while, the call connected and Yi Jinli's slightly cold voice came from the other end of the line. "Sis.""I have something to do. I'm afraid that I will be back late today. You... you can prepare dinner for yourself," Ling Yiran said."What do you mean you have something to do'? Just tell him that you're in the hospital right now," Qin Lianyi interrupted."Sis, are you in the hospital right now?" There seemed to be a slight change in Yi Jinli's tone."Well, I took a fall, and now I am waiting for an X-ray scan in the hospital," Ling Yiran replied."Which hospital? I'm coming now," Yi Jinli said."You don't have to come over. Lianyi is here with me. Just wait for me at home," she said in a hurry.The other end of the phone was silent. After a while, his cold voice sound

    It was only because of the hospital director's orders that he paid more attention to Ling Yiran.At this moment, another figure walked into the consulting room, came to Ling Yiran's side, and said, "Sis.""You're here," Ling Yiran said. He had arrived faster than she had expected."Yes, there was a traffic jam on the way, so I got here late," Yi Jinli replied."Doctor, how is it? Is my friend all right? She was knocked down several steps by someone on the escalator," Qin Lianyi, who was next to her, asked nervously."The injury is not too serious, but there are some slight fractures around her ankle. It will heal after resting for one or two weeks, but..." Dr. Zhang hesitated."But what?" Qin Lianyi continued to ask."But, Miss Ling, have you often been injured in the past few years?" Dr. Zhang asked.Ling Yiran was stunned. For a moment, she didn't know how to answer."I don't mean anything else. I just want to say that from your X-ray results, I can see that you seem to have

    When she said the name 'Yi Jinli', his body unnoticeably stiffened."Do you hate Yi Jinli?" he murmured.She sighed and said, "Everyone in Shen City knows him. When I had the car accident, Hao Meiyu was Yi Jinli's fiancée. So, of course, I was not going to get out of it easily. How many people want to curry favor with him? It's the same number as the people who want to kick me when I'm down."After a pause, she said with a look of self-mockery, "Sometimes I even think that if it had not been Hao Meiyu who I hit in the accident, I could have won the lawsuit. Would I have been spared from being in jail for three years and experienced all those things?"She was not angry or sad, but the faint self-mockery she gave made him feel very guilty.Perhaps half of her pain was because of him.He squatted in front of her, staring at her through his thick bangs. "If I had known that you would suffer so much, I would have protected you three years ago."This sentence had nothing to do with th

    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!

    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
