Ling Yiran hugged Qin Lianyi, her nose feeling sore. "Sure, your child is my child. Our child will have two mothers..."'Lianyi. The only person who won't abandon me is probably you, Lianyi!'How can I repay her for her kindness?'Maybe even the rest of my life won’t be enough time for me to repay her!'...In the following days, Ling Yiran was busy collecting relevant information about the case, so she naturally came in contact with Guo Xinli more frequently.They had dinner a few times, but Ling Yiran always insisted on going Dutch."Guo Xinli must like you. I think he's pretty good. He seems upright." Qin Lianyi came to see Ling Yiran once and met Guo Xinli. They even talked for a while.Qin Lianyi felt good about Guo Xinli. 'He may look ordinary, but he's honest, reliable, and a little shy. He even blushes when he sees Yiran.'Such pure and innocent men were rare nowadays."He's great, but he's not for me. He can find a better woman," said Ling Yiran.Even when she was h
Qin Lianyi then told him about Guo Xinli. When she was done, she said in a gossipy manner, "I think Guo Xinli must like Yiran. Otherwise, he wouldn't drive Yiran back every time Yiran goes to talk to him about the case. I've checked. He lives in the opposite direction from Yiran's place."Bai Tingxin let out a sigh of relief. 'It turns out that this girl is not having a crush on another man after all.'Even though she told him she liked him and that she wanted to be in a relationship with him, he was still a little skeptical. After all, she had a long history of being infatuated with several men!"Even if he really likes Ling Yiran, it's still up to her. I think she’s not in the mood for another relationship anytime soon," said Bai Tingxin.Qin Lianyi immediately looked discouraged like a deflated balloon. "Yeah, I blame Yi Jinli for hurting Yiran so deeply. I should’ve advised Yiran not to date Yi Jinli back then."Qin Lianyi wanted to slap herself when she recalled that she appr
Qin Lianyi widened her eyes as she looked at the blush on his cheeks. 'God... He… He's blushing. It's not true, is it? Is he really blushing?'She could not help raising her hand to touch his cheek.He stiffened but did not stop her. He let her fingers caress his face. "What… are you doing?""Wow! Bai Tingxin, you're blushing..." She was shocked.He stiffened even more and turned his head away immediately. "Don't talk nonsense.""I'm not talking nonsense..." Then, she saw that even his ears were red.Her hand spared no effort in reaching for his ears. They were indeed red and burning."Don't do that," he said, trying to pull her hand away."Hey, let me touch them a little more. I haven't touched enough!" she cried out, unaware of the ambiguousness of her words.Bai Tingxin now felt as if he was being burned in a sea of flames. He wanted to pull her hand away, but his body seemed to love it.'Is this the price of falling in love with someone? There are times when my mind and b
There was a pause to Yi Jinli’s movements as his face darkened little by little. Meanwhile, Gao Congming was in a state of panic while wishing to sew Qin Lianyi's mouth shut immediately.The name Ling Yiran was now taboo in Yi Group!'But now that audacious Qin Lianyi is speaking so loudly of it!' Gao Congming was really afraid that his boss would lose his temper!The air pressure around Yi Jinli seemed to have dropped a lot, and Gao Congming, who was beside Yi Jinli, was close to trembling!After Qin Lianyi was done saying her piece, she took Bai Tingxin's arm and left contentedly.Bai Tingxin looked at his girlfriend's petty move and unconsciously laughed. 'Looks like it's true that women and petty people are difficult!'Lianyi has both characteristics!'From the corner of his eyes, Bai Tingxin once again glanced at Yi Jinli who was not far away before leaving.'Does Yi Jinli really not love Ling Yiran anymore? Did they break up because he's sick of her and wants to stop dati
…Ling Yiran and Guo Xinli were having lunch in a restaurant near the hospital.When she came to the hospital today to visit Lil Li who was still in a coma, she bumped into Guo Xinli again. Guo Xinli stayed with her while she gathered all kinds of materials. He even did some errands for her.Ling Yiran could somewhat see through him too. It seemed that Guo Xinli still liked her. However, he did not say it out loud, so she just stayed quiet about it and tried her best to keep her distance so as to avoid giving him the wrong idea.She was at the hospital until nearly one o'clock in the afternoon. Ling Yiran was so busy that she even forgot about lunch. She had not eaten and neither had Guo Xinli."You’ve helped me a lot today. Why don't I treat you to lunch?" said Ling Yiran.Guo Xinli smiled shyly. "I'm a man. I should be the one to treat you.""It has nothing to do with whether you're a man. If I ever help you out with something, then it's never too late to treat me," she said.
"Yes.""Then… Where's your brother?"When he said this, she stiffened. The word ‘brother’ once felt so close to her, but now it felt so far away."He… has gone back to his own home. I was only taking him in temporarily," muttered Ling Yiran. She then returned to her seat, lowered her head, and began to eat her unfinished meal.Guo Xinli only stared at Ling Yiran.'Is the 'brother' who at first seemed to be monopolizing her no longer with her?'Is she alone now? Does that mean I... have a chance?' The idea grew stronger and stronger in his mind.Neither of the two in the restaurant noticed a black sedan parked a short distance from the restaurant.The man in the car was staring at them through the window.Gao Congming did not even dare to breathe. He just looked at his boss who was in front of him in fear before looking at Ling Yiran and the man called Guo Xinli in the restaurant.After finding out Ling Yiran's current location, Young Master Yi just made him drive over, and...
It was because... that would not lead to anything.Just like when someone wanted to make her a scapegoat as the powerless her could easily become an abandoned pawn!A flash of embarrassment came over Guo Xinli's face, but he said with great certainty, "I... I know I can't do much, but... but if I had known you then, I would have done everything I could to help you! 'The car had come to a stop at the building of Ling Yiran's law firm.Ling Yiran leaned over slightly and looked at the man next to her carefully.The man looked ordinary, but he had a power that warmed people's hearts. After going through so much, she knew that perhaps ordinariness was the most precious of all.'Guo Xinli, you're a nice person and a good man, but I'm not right for you. I've been through a lot of things and I've been disappointed in love and in marriage. I just want to focus on my career now. The rest doesn't matter to me!" said Ling Yiran."Then I can wait. I'll wait until you’re willing to focus on
"I... I really like you. I... I know I'm useless. I can't provide you a lavish lifestyle, but I can accompany you every day. I can do everything I can to protect you. If you've never tried, how do you know you can't develop feelings for me no matter how long it takes?"He was stuttering. He was so anxious yet so earnest.Ling Yiran's nose felt a little sore. It turned out that there was someone who liked her so much.It was not for any other reason. He just respected her no matter how destitute she was.She did not push him away. His hug felt very, very warm.It was because of this warmth that she hoped that one day he could meet a woman who really loved him!"Guo Xinli, thank you for liking me, but even now when you're holding me, I feel nothing for you. Do you think it's necessary to try?" she said.In her ears came the sound of his silent breathing....A black car was parked not far away. The man inside looked at the pair embracing each other in the car ahead while his han
