"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
'From now on, I don't have to worry so much about whether she would go to Gu Lichen, and I don't have to guess how much of her heart is with Gu Lichen.'I won't repeat my father's mistakes. I won't let myself become as awkward and embarrassed as a lost dog just to love someone.'I surely won't!'With that, Yi Jinli finally left the kitchen and walked up the stairs to the second floor alone.Gao Congming looked at the back of his boss with mixed feelings.'If there really is someone in the world who could control Young Master Yi's life and death…' Somehow, Ling Yiran's name came to his mind.…Ling Yiran woke up the next day to see a beautifully wrapped gift box at her bedside. It was a birthday gift from Lianyi and Bai Tingxin.It was just that she did not open it last night.Slowly sitting up, Ling Yiran opened the box, and inside was a tiny, exquisite doll that looked a bit like her. It was dressed in a lawyer's suit, looking so cute.Inside the box was a handwritten card f
At least now she had a lawyer's license, so she could go back to doing the job she loved!"Then I'll go with you. I drove here today, so it's more convenient," said Qin Lianyi.The pair went to a real estate agent. Since Ling Yiran did not have high requirements for the house she wanted to rent, it did not take her long to find a suitable one.They went to see the house in the morning and signed the rental agreement with the landlord in the afternoon.It cost 1,700 dollars a month. The transportation was also relatively convenient, and there was also a supermarket and eateries nearby.However, Qin Lianyi found the people in the neighborhood a little complicated and worried that her friend would run into safety issues.About that, Ling Yiran said, "It's not like I'm going to live here for the rest of my life. It's just a temporary transition until I have a more stable income. Then, I'll find somewhere else. Besides, I'll go out as little as possible at night. I'll be alright."Qi
'However…' Ling Yiran lowered her head and looked at her flat stomach.'I might never have children of my own. In the past, it was because of my body that I thought I was unable to give birth.'Now, my body may heal, but I've been physically and mentally exhausted that I no longer have the courage to believe in the so-called love!'Ling Yiran got to the small restaurant, and it was already past seven o‘clock. She had avoided the dinner rush hour."There you are!" When Zhuo Qianyun saw Ling Yiran, she immediately went up to her. Looking at her gaunt face, she asked, "Have you eaten? Why don't you eat something at my place?"Ling Yiran thought about it and said, "Then give me a bowl of noodles. I haven't had that for a long time." "Sure, wait a minute," said Zhuo Qianyun before ordering the kitchen staff to do it.Before long, a bowl of noodles with lots of ingredients appeared. "Eat. Think of it as we’re celebrating your birthday a day later!""Thank you," said Ling Yiran as sh
The next moment, the cake in her hand had fallen to the ground.Not far from the restaurant's door, a tall figure had stepped out of the car and was approaching her in the moonlight step by step.His hair was still meticulously combed, and he was wearing a crisp suit. His cold and stern face gave people a sense of abstinence, while his deep and narrow eyes seemed to see through people.When you were stared at by those eyes, others could not help but feel scared as if they were being stared at by a beast.Now those eyes were upon her!Zhuo Qianyun only felt that the blood vessels in her body seemed to have frozen suddenly, and the only thing left was the suffocating cold!Ye Wenming!Did the man finally appear in front of her?Perhaps when she fled from the mall that day, she had a vague premonition that she might not escape him this time. He would eventually find her.'I just didn't expect it to be... so soon!'Everything had happened too quickly that she felt breathless."I
When she was struggling with hunger, he was probably eating all sorts of delicacies while he held his beloved woman."Can you let go? I think we've said everything we needed to say in court. I went to prison just like how you wanted me to. Do you have anything else to teach me, Mr. Ye?" said Zhuo Qianyun.Ye Wenming could not help narrowing his eyes. The woman in front of him was not as gentle as before. Instead, she seemed to have prickles all over her to keep people away.Moreover, the words ‘let go’ from her mouth struck him harshly."Zhuo Qianyun, do you think that after a few years in prison, you’ve paid all that you owe?" Ye Wenming said coldly. His long fingers squeezed her arm a little tighter, bringing her closer to him. "You're really naive if you think so!"Zhuo Qianyun suddenly laughed. 'Naive... He said that I'm naive!'He had destroyed her innocence completely!"Ye Wenming, I never owed you anything." She raised her chin and for once, did not escape his gaze.No m
Ye Wenming was slightly surprised at her calmness. "Aren't you going to escape?" he asked as he pulled off his tie."Can I escape?" she retorted as if amused.She had escaped. She escaped once when she got out of jail, escaped again when she saw him in the mall, but eventually... he found her anyway.Sometimes, fate seemed to like to go round and round and let everything go back to square one. It was funny and sad, making people feel helpless."There's no escape." This was Ye Wenming's answer to her. "Even if you were to escape this time, I would certainly find you again.""Therefore, there's no need for me to escape." Zhuo Qianyun shrugged her shoulders as if she had given up all resistance and said, "Mr. Ye, how do you expect me to pay the life I owe you?"Ye Wenming pressed his thin lips together and stared intently at Zhuo Qianyun. "I wonder who helped you hide everything when you got out of prison?"Had it not been so, it would not have taken him so long."A friend," Zhuo
Zhuo Qianyun was stunned immediately.'What is he doing? Is he kissing me?'Why was he kissing her? Should he not hate her to the extreme? Why did the kiss seem so eager almost as if he was going to devour all of her?!She did not know how long it took, but the kiss was finally over. A sigh escaped from his throat.Even Ye Wenming himself did not expect to feel... so satisfied from the kiss!'I haven’t felt this kind of satisfaction in a long time!'Why... Why this woman?'He stared at the person in front of him with mixed feelings as his fingers rubbed her lips, which were slightly reddened and swollen from his kiss.More than four years had taken away some of her innocence and made her more gentle. It was easy to seduce a man when she glared at him with her gorgeous eyes.'Did she use that look to seduce another man too?'When he thought of her saying that she could give her life to another man, he immediately got into a very bad mood. 'Had the man kissed her in the same wa
