Addicted to Loving You: The Paranoid and Domineering Boss's Convicted Wife Chapter 826
"No thanks. I won't switch my job for the time being. I'll do it when I've made some real achievements and have a better resume," she said."Don't you mind how those people treat you?""I do, but... that's also the frustration of being an adult. Even though I don't get along with those people, I still have to stay for the sake of earning a living. As for them... Um, it was the second daughter of the Hao family, Hao Yimeng, who wanted to embarrass me. If they helped me, they would be offending Hao Yimeng. We're not that close, so they have no reason to do that for me, right?"Bai Tingxin was somewhat surprised. He did not expect her to be so understanding.However, after saying that, she froze and looked at him strangely."What's the matter? Why are you looking at me like that?" he asked with a slight frown.She pressed her lips together for a long time before she said, "Nothing... I'm hungry and I want something to eat.""Alright." Bai Tingxin smiled.Since it was not dinner ti

She did not want to escape the feeling in her heart. Since she had fallen for him, she did not want to miss him.Or should she say she did not want to miss him a second time, having already missed him more than three years ago?He stared at her, his beautiful black eyes looking as if he wanted to see through her."Do you want us to have a real relationship?" His voice was slightly hoarse.She nodded."However, you must know that once we’re really dating, you can't just leave me whenever you want anymore. I can forgive you for leaving without saying goodbye the last time, but if you leave again without saying goodbye, maybe I'll break your legs so that you can't go anywhere,” Bai Tingxin said. Each word sounded like a final warning to her.Qin Lianyi trembled, her teeth leaving a row of bite marks on her red lower lip."No, not just leaving without saying goodbye... You don't even have the right to break up with me," said Bai Tingxin. He simply could not imagine letting her go on

"They fit just fine," said Ling Yiran."Good. Tell me if you’re still lacking anything. Don't be shy. You can just pay me back after getting your salary," said Qin Lianyi."Sure." Ling Yiran smiled, but after a moment, she looked like she was holding something back."What is it? Do you need something?""No, it's..." Ling Yiran hesitated a moment before saying, "When you picked me up yesterday... What was I doing?"She thought about it all day, but she still could not remember what she had done after walking out of Drunken Days drunk! She only vaguely remembered seeing Yi Jinli."You... Uh, leaned in Yi Jinli's arms and blacked out," said Qin Lianyi.Ling Yiran froze immediately. "Anything... else?""No. I arrived and helped you get into the car with Bai Tingxin. However... Before I got back to the car, I impulsively slapped him because I was mad at him for breaking up with you. I thought I was going to be in trouble, but probably because of you, he just left without saying anyt

"Alright, got it," replied Ling Yiran."It's going to be submitted tomorrow, so make sure you get it signed today." Lawyer Gu urged before giving Ling Yiran the contact details.However, when Ling Yiran called, it was their secretary who answered. They just told Ling Yiran that the client would be at Magnificence for a party that night. If she wanted to get the documents signed, she could go to Magnificence. They even gave her the number of the banquet room. Magnificence was a famous nightclub in Shen City.However, when Ling Yiran arrived, she found many men and women gathered at the banquet room. They seemed to be having a party. For a moment, Ling Yiran was confused about who she was looking for.She had to call the secretary one more time before finding the client near the pool table.He was the son of a rich family with a pretty bad reputation. He was getting sued for being violent during his relationship with a girl who asked for compensation.Lawyer Gu took the case to d

'He's... here too?'She did not expect to bump into him again so soon. It seemed like such a small world.Ling Yiran looked up, and a figure caught her eye.Gu Lichen was wearing an all-white casual outfit that was less formal than his usual attire and more laid-back.Under the lamp’s light, the handsome face showed a touch of indifference and estrangement. Even if he was surrounded by the crowd, there was an invisible barrier that made him look like he was somewhat out of place from the commotion around him.It was as if he had put up a barrier in his world and would never allow anyone to enter.The one… who was able to break through this barrier was only the little girl who went through thick and thin with him... Someone she used to be!However... Ling Yiran's eyes fell on the woman who had walked into the room while holding onto Gu Lichen's arm.It was Sis Lifang who had taken over her place. She was now standing next to Gu Lichen, a beaming smile plastered across her face.

Even though the people in this circle were considered rich or powerful by others, everyone was ranked.To Yu Kaihao's surprise, Gu Lichen replied, "Sure."Yu Kaihao was overjoyed. He felt as if he had just won the lottery. If he could get close to Gu Lichen, his status in the circle would be different.When Yu Kaihao led Gu Lichen and Hua Lifang to the pool table, Ling Yiran could not help smiling bitterly.This was just what she was worried about.Ling Yiran took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said to Yu Kaihao, "Mr. Yu, would you please sign this document first?""Just wait. Don't disturb us!" Yu Kaihao said impatiently. He was afraid it would interrupt his game with Gu Lichen and affect him from making friends with him.Ling Yiran lowered her head and bit her lip slightly. She could feel Gu Lichen's eyes sweeping over her.However... it was just a sweep."Lifang, have you ever played pool?" Gu Lichen's voice rang."Ah... No," Hua Lifang replied quickly."I'll teach y

"I like it very much. I didn't expect playing pool to be so interesting," Hua Lifang said with a smile.On the other hand, Yu Kaihao was busy sucking up to Gu Lichen and Hua Lifang. He was saying that Gu Lichen was a good coach and Hua Lifang was talented.They seemed to have forgotten about Ling Yiran who was standing nearby.Listening to what Hua Lifang had just said, Ling Yiran only found that her cousin was good at acting. She had never thought that her cousin could lie so well.Gu Lichen probably already believed that her cousin was the little girl from his childhood.Even if she did tell Gu Lichen the truth, he would probably take it as a joke.The pain in her knees seemed to be getting more and more serious.Ling Yiran frowned slightly with her lips pressed tightly. She was trying to ignore the pain in her knees and hold on.Now, she could only wait until they had finished the round before getting Yu Kaihao to sign the document.With her head lowered slightly, Ling Yira

Ling Yiran stumbled as her knees went weak. She was about to fall over.The next moment, an arm grabbed her waist and prevented her from falling."What's wrong with your leg?" Gu Lichen asked coldly. He saw her limping over earlier."It's an old problem," said Ling Yiran before she thanked him for his help.He pressed his thin lips together and withdrew his hand while his gaze fell on her legs. 'Old problem. Does she have such old problems?'"Yiran, are you okay?" Hua Lifang was quick to show her sisterly affection. "If your legs are uncomfortable, you can sit down and have a rest."Ling Yiran glanced coldly at her cousin. If her cousin really cared about her, she would not have looked on coldly while happily playing pool as she stood there.Yu Kaihao was stunned and said with an unnatural expression on his face, "You know... each other?""Yeah, Yiran's my cousin," Hua Lifang said with a smile.Yu Kaihao's expression suddenly became more unnatural. Then, he turned to Ling Yira

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! They told me Gu Lichen

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
