"Oh God, what am I thinking? Why would I think that?""It feels weird standing too close," Ling Yiran explained."All right then," he said and removed his hand. He took a step back and tidied up the things on the table.She let out a sigh of relief and stroked her own cheeks, which felt warm."By the way, Sister, just now when we were standing that close, did you want to kiss me?" he asked unexpectedly, stunning her.Her black, almond-like eyes blinked and she felt her cheeks beneath her palms turn even warmer."Is it a very hard question to answer?" he asked with a slightly arched brow."I... I of course...""If it were Sister, I would allow it," he replied, cutting off her sentence. "I don't like other women kissing me, but if it were Sister, it would be okay."Sunlight shone into the house through the narrow glass window and landed on him."His expression is so serious. It's as if he's telling me that what he just said was serious."For a brief moment, the latter half of
She bit her lip lightly. "Relying on someone else is not as good as relying on yourself. Only when you rely on yourself can you not be disappointed.""If not, the higher the expectation, the bigger the disappointment.""But I really want to be Sister's benefactor. What should I do?" He arched a brow slightly and studied her calmly."If it's Jin..." She smiled and continued, "Then, all right. I'll wait for Jin to be my benefactor.""Why would Sister be willing?" he asked."Because Jin would never disappoint me. Because..." She paused and continued, "No matter what, you would never abandon me, right?"He responded with a low chuckle to her question. "You're right. I would never abandon Sister."—At night, only when Yi Jinli saw that Ling Yiran was deeply asleep did he step out of the rental apartment. He walked toward a house not far from Ling Yiran's rental apartment.However, unlike Ling Yiran's cramped rental apartment, the suite was wider, brighter, and much bigger. The dec
At this moment, Yi Jinli ended the call and said to Gao Congming, "For the rest of today's meeting, finish it up for me and give me the conference record tomorrow.""Then what about you, Master Yi?""Yiran suddenly woke up and asked me where I went. I'm going back now," Yi Jinli replied. "The general direction of the meeting has been set anyway. What's left are only some small details."After saying that, he walked out of the room. A lot of the senior overseas executives who were sitting there started talking about what had happened as soon as they saw their boss leave.At this time, Gao Congming faced an onslaught of questions."Secretary Gao, what's going on?""Why did Mr. Yi leave?""Who called him just now?""Oh, I can tell from President Yi's expression just now that he must be in love."Foreign romanticists usually told this kind of story.Gao Congming could only smile awkwardly. "Okay, let's continue with the meeting." "Love? Does this count as love for Young Master Yi
It seemed that there was no emotion in them at all.However, Gao Congming had seen this pair of eyes before. When Yi Jinli had been talking to Ling Yiran over the phone, his eyes had been dyed with a touch of tenderness.At that time, he had realized that the eyes of his boss were not cold to everyone and that there were exceptions."Master Yi, the car is already waiting outside," Gao Congming said."Let's go then," Yi Jinli said flatly. Originally, he had not been in the mood to go to the engagement banquet of the Xiao and Hao families, but now things were a little different.Xiao Ziqi, the man who had been together with Yiran, was no longer in her heart. Even if these two people wanted to get back together, it would be almost impossible.But... what he wanted was a flawless plan.He didn't want her to have any chance of having a relationship with Xiao Ziqi, and this was the day to achieve that.How could this not be interesting?Ling Yiran had finished dinner in the rented r
Ever since she was a child, in order to earn the praise of her father and make her step-mother not hate her, she tried hard to cater to everyone. Although she had won a lot of honors, she lived a tiring life.Xiao Ziqi had taught her that there was no one she could rely on.However... Jin had said that he wanted to be her support. A smile surfaced on Ling Yiran when she thought of Jin. After she was released from prison, perhaps the luckiest thing that had happened to her was meeting Jin.As she thought about it, she scrolled through the web page. Suddenly, there was a post reporting the scene at the front of the hotel. Yi Jinli had also come to attend the engagement ceremony. However, Yi Jinli was surrounded by bodyguards and had not allowed anyone to take a photo of him. Even the reporters were not able to take a photo.Anyone who filmed it would be made to delete all of the content on the spot.Although Yi Jinli was too domineering, he had the capital to behave in such a way.
"Then I guess he is going to lose all his money," Gu Lichen said. From the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of a figure who was looking around in the banquet hall. "She's here. Should I introduce you to her?"Yi Jinli's eyes turned in the direction of Gu Lichen's gaze, and the corners of his mouth suddenly lifted. "Ling Luoyin?""Do you know her?" Gu Lichen was a little surprised. After all, Ling Luoyin and Yi Jinli seemed to have nothing to do with each other."Sort of," Yi Jinli said in a meaningful tone. "If you care about this new girlfriend of yours, then don't let her make trouble. If she does, even you won't be able to protect her.""Did she offend you?" Gu Lichen's almond-shaped eyes rose slightly as he looked at Yi Jinli."Do you think that she would still be able to stand there if she had provoked me?" Yi Jinli replied. "However, in the future, we will have to see if she is clever enough."After this, Yi Jinli turned and left. At this moment, Ling Luoyin happened
"Are my lips pretty?" Ling Luoyin was a little confused. After all, lips were not a feature that would normally be noticed. As long as they were not too ugly, there was not much variation in them.Therefore, Ling Luoyin hadn't expected that Gu Lichen would take a fancy to her lips.But no matter what, this was her luck.She had to seize hold of Gu Lichen and become the most popular actress. She could even... marry into a wealthy family and live a completely different life!At this moment, Ling Luoyin seemed to have foreseen a good life in the future. However, she had not noticed that although the person in front of her was smiling, the smile was not genuine."By the way, do you know Yi Jinli?" Gu Lichen suddenly asked.Ling Luoyin shook her head. How would she have ever gotten a chance to know someone like Yi Jinli?Gu Lichen pursed his thin lips and said, "Don't get yourself into any trouble in the future. If you really offend him, I may not be able to protect you."Of course,
Xiao Ziqi left as if he was treading on air.Once the engagement ceremony started, Yi Jinli watched the exchange of the engagement rings on the stage and listened to the engagement speeches between Xiao Ziqi and Hao Yimeng. A smile flashed across his face.It was estimated that tomorrow, the photos of Xiao Ziqi and Hao Yimeng's engagement party would come out. Then it would be impossible for Yiran and Xiao Ziqi to be together.After the engagement ceremony ended, the hall was filled with people congratulating them. However, Yi Jinli left the scene and walked out by himself.A silver Bentley outside. Gao Congming opened the door respectfully, and Yi Jinli hopped on."Master Yi going back to the rental apartment now?" Gao Congming asked."Yeah," Yi Jinli leaned against the back of the seat and replied. Then, he slowly closed his eyes.Today, Gu Lichen's presence had surprised him. He hadn't thought that the woman that Gu Lichen had taken a fancy to would actually be Ling Luoyin,
