"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
Therefore, Ling Yiran dragged her suitcases to the nearest bus stop near Yi Residence. She just sat on the bench at the bus stop until her phone rang.She was stunned for a while before taking out her phone. The caller ID showed that it was Lianyi.'Lianyi…' Ling Yiran only found her nose starting to feel faintly sore again.When she pressed the answer button, her best friend's familiar voice sounded from within. "Yiran, are you at Yi Residence now? Bai Tingxin and I are coming over now."Ling Yiran suddenly remembered. 'Oh right. Today's my birthday and I've invited Lianyi and Bai Tingxin over to celebrate.'However... there's no need for it now!"You don't need to come over. I... broke up with Yi Jinli. There won't be any birthday celebrations today," said Ling Yiran. Now, it was as if even saying one word would leave a strong bitterness in her mouth.Qin Lianyi was immediately stunned. "Broke up? You and Yi Jinli broke up? What's going on here? No, where are you now?"Qin Li
Zhuo Qianyun was startled. She could tell something was wrong from Ling Yiran’s voice. "What's wrong? Did something happen?""Yes. I'll tell you about it some other day." Ling Yiran tried hard to make herself sound natural. "Please tell Lil Yan I'm sorry that I can't treat him to cake today. I'll buy him a cake some other day.""If you’re facing any difficulties, come to me. I may not be able to help you much, but it's good to have one more person for advice," said Zhuo Qianyun.She thought of Yiran as a friend.Since her release from prison, she had left her hometown to avoid Ye Wenming and cut off ties with all her former friends. It was safe to say that she only had a few friends around her now.The only person she could call a friend was Yiran!"Thank you, Sis Zhuo. Don't worry. I'll be alright," said Ling Yiran before finally ending the call.'Yeah, I'll be alright. I just got my heart broken again. I just fell from heaven to hell yet again.'No, it's not hell. At least it
"Inns don’t have a nice environment. Hotels have a better environment," said Qin Lianyi."I can only afford an inn with the money I have right now," said Ling Yiran.Qin Lianyi hurriedly said, "If you're worried about not having enough money, I can—""Lianyi, thank you for your kindness, but I want to do this on my own," said Ling Yiran. 'Yes, I have to rely on myself to survive in this world.'Qin Lianyi opened her mouth, but in the end, she said nothing. She knew that her best friend had her pride!After booking the inn, Qin Lianyi asked Bai Tingxin to buy some food. Then in the room, she asked her best friend what exactly happened and why she broke up with Yi Jinli for no reason."He said he was tired and didn't want to love me anymore. He never really believed me throughout this relationship." Ling Yiran smiled bitterly and said in self-mockery, "I guess I'm not suited for a relationship after all!""Yiran, don't smile like that. It makes me sad when you smile like that." Qi
'I want to forget about him and this relationship from the bottom of my heart. From now on, I want to forget about the man named Jin. Shen City only has Yi Jinli!'Having made her wish, Ling Yiran slowly opened her eyes and looked at the burning candle before blowing the flame out."I'll cut the cake," she said as she cut three slices of cake and gave them to Qin Lianyi, Bai Tingxin, and herself.Picking up the cake, Ling Yiran ate it mouthful by mouthful.The cake... should be sweet, but it tasted so bitter in her mouth.After eating the cake, Qin Lianyi cleaned it up. She planned to stay, but Ling Yiran said, "You don't need to accompany me. I want to be alone and have a good rest."Qin Lianyi hesitated a little before saying, "Alright then. Have a good rest! I'll see you tomorrow.""Yes." Ling Yiran nodded. Looking at her best friend's worried expression, she smiled again and said, "Lianyi, I'm fine."This smile made Qin Lianyi feel even more bitter.After leaving the hotel
"Why?" She wondered. He did not have to get into this mess at all.Moreover, in terms of business, the Bai family's business had now begun to extend to Shen City, and it should be the time for them to establish a good relationship with Yi Jinli. If he offended Yi Jinli, then the development of the Bai family's business in Shen City would become difficult."Would you believe me if I said I don’t care who I offend?" he asked as he stared at her.For a moment, Qin Lianyi felt her mind in a trance, as if something was pouring out of her heart.'What part of what he’s saying is true and what part is false?'However... now I seem to be tempted to believe him.'…Listening to the butler's report, Gao Congming knew that Qin Lianyi and Bai Tingxin, who were outside, had left. His expression finally seemed a little better.What a mess it was today! Everyone was joining in the mess!However, one of Gao Congming's biggest concerns at the moment was his boss, who had been in the kitchen fo
