'No... It's not exactly blank. On the last page, there’s just a photo. A photo of me.'It was a photo of her in a floral dress that he used to think looked good and got it for her.To her surprise, the photo was kept in his photo album.Then, she found a small silver bracelet at the place where the photo album had been.She was so focused on the photo album that she neglected the bracelet.'This bracelet…' Ling Yiran's chest tightened suddenly. 'I recall this being the bracelet Gu Lichen carried with him everywhere. Why is it with Jin?''No, this bracelet... is Gu Lichen's!'Ling Yiran suddenly picked up the small silver bracelet. This one was just the same style and size as that one, but it was much more oxidized than that bracelet. The surface was a little darker, unlike that bracelet. Gu Lichen probably carried it around with him and often rubbed his fingers against it, so it was brighter.'Then this bracelet…'She suddenly thought of the jewelry box that her grandmother ha
Dr. Leng's sudden disturbance was a surprise, and the most troublesome thing was that Miss Ling had seen it.'I'm afraid Young Master Yi won't let me off the hook so easily after this!' Gao Congming shuddered involuntarily at the thought, then glanced back at the psychiatrist who had become silent.'Did Dr. Leng suddenly create such a disturbance at Yi Residence because she’s anxious? Anxious to prove she didn’t hypnotize Ling Yiran for fear of losing her job?'Isn't that a bit too simplistic? I've only arranged for her to go abroad for a meeting and a vacation.'The look in Gao Congming's eyes changed as he thought of it. After all, being around Yi Jinli, he had seen so much that it was natural to understand one thing—there must be something wrong if things were going wrong.'Maybe I need to do some more digging.'In Yi Residence, Yi Jinli said to Ling Yiran with a smile, "Come on. Let's have breakfast first.""Jin, what was that all about?" Instead of following him to the dini
"Yes." His answer once again made her have mixed feelings!"Why did you do that?""Why?" He suddenly raised his arms, almost holding her carefully in his embrace. "What about you? Why did you want to go to a doctor to hypnotize you? Do you want to restore the memory of you and Gu Lichen? Are you that attached to that memory? You've spent only a day together when you were little, and now you have me by your side."His voice was so calm. It was as if he was just talking about a common thing.However, it sounded so frightening to her.'He even knows that... Gu Lichen and I only spent one day together! It’s as if he knows everything and I’m the only one who didn’t!'He seemed to feel her body going stiff and held her tighter in his arms. His lips were close to her ear as he continued to whisper, "Don't seek for that memory again. Isn't it enough that you have me?"'No. I don't have to restore that memory. I've decided to bury it all and keep it as my little secret.' "Gu Lichen and I
It was as if their previous quarrel and doubts had never existed!'Is this what he means by calling it a day?'Ling Yiran stared blankly at the half-done cake in front of her. Just earlier, she thought she would be full of joy when she saw the cake.However, now she found her nose somewhat sore.'Call it a day... If we're just going to call it a day, there’ll always be a misunderstanding between him and me.'I must make it clear no matter what!'"Jin, Gu Lichen and I really—"However, before she had finished speaking, his lips pressed hard against hers and silenced all her voice.He sucked on her lips, ravishing all the sweetness in her mouth until he bit her upper lip with a punitive bite in the end."Haven't I told you not to speak of the thing between you and him? I don't care what happened between you two. I just want you to stay by my side from now on."Ling Yiran found her lips burning but felt somewhat cold.'So... he doesn’t care for my explanations and doesn't belie
'If he believes me, he would believe what I said to him in his father's mourning hall that day, that I’d never betray him!'If he believes me, he’ll believe that he's the one I love!''If he believes me, he wouldn’t have hidden Grandma's bracelet to deliberately hide the truth.'However... he doesn’t believe me…' Ling Yiran only felt as though she was now soaking in ice water.Yi Jinli pursed his thin lips. He told himself to trust her, but when he saw Gu Lichen appearing with her on his back like that and when she went to the hospital again and again to restore her memory without telling him, he did not know how much more he could trust her.What a terrible feeling!Her voice once again rang. "If you can't even believe me, how are we going to proceed with our relationship? Gu Lichen—""That's enough! I told you to stop!" His hands seized her by the neck, choking her to cut off her voice. "Does Gu Lichen believe you? So you can proceed with Gu Lichen instead?"'Gu Lichen, Gu Li
"You're... tired?" she muttered, merely repeating whatever he said."Yes, I'm tired, so our relationship is over!" he said.'It's too tiring. If loving someone is so physically and mentally tiring, so insecure, and so uneasy, then I’d rather not love at all.'If Gu Lichen will always have a place in her heart, I’d rather not have the rest.'When his father died in front of his eyes, he vowed to never be like his father—losing his life for a woman who betrayed him.Not before, and not in the future!Ling Yiran stood up almost stiffly. Although he was right in front of her, why did she feel so far away?Last night, he was so intimate to her, and she had felt so happy, yet now... It was like a great irony.'He's breaking up with me just because he's tired? Then what does our relationship mean to him? Has he only seen it as a game the entire time? However, the difference is that I've trapped myself in it.'"What if... I don't want to break up?" Her dignity shattered when she was
The corners of her eyes were still dry!'Now I can't even cry?'...Maybe some people in this world were doomed to never receive love.She fell in love with Yi Jinli despite suffering the terrible experience of being dumped by Xiao Ziqi!She and he were two worlds apart.If she had not taken him home that night, then there was no way they could have crossed paths.At the end of the day, it was she who had provoked him in the first place and became the subject of a game in the end. Now... it was just making her realize who she was once again.Step by step, Ling Yiran walked out of the kitchen. Yi Residence was surprisingly quiet right now. It was so quiet that she could not even see the servants.'However, it's fine. At least… it'll save me a lot of embarrassment.'She seemed to have used up all her strength when she finally returned to her bedroom.Her mood was completely different from when she left earlier!She walked up to the dressing mirror and murmured to the woman in
His game with her ended here!On her 28th birthday, she realized God’s cruelty to her was far deeper than she had imagined!Her slender body dragged her two suitcases behind her as she descended the stairs with some difficulty. Finally, on her way out of the main house, she met Yi Residence’s butler.The butler was surprised to see Ling Yiran dressed in plain old clothes, looking like she was leaving as she dragged her suitcases.“Miss Ling, where are you going?”"I’m moving out. Yi Jinli and I have broken up, so there’s no reason for me to stay here," said Ling Yiran.‘What?’The butler looked surprised. ‘Broke up? With Young Master Yi?‘However... isn't it Miss Ling's birthday today? Young Master Yi made a point of ordering the birthday menu for the evening.’Even so, looking at the way Miss Ling spoke now, she did not seem to be lying. The butler was in doubt for a moment.On the other hand, Ling Yiran said nothing but continued to drag her suitcases out of Yi Residence st
