If Yi Jinli really did help Ling Yiran take revenge on the Xiao family, then the Xiao family would lose so much to the point where they would no longer be one of the rich and powerful families in Shen City."Young... Young Master Yi, I..." Xiao Ziqi wanted to defend himself.However, Ling Yiran interrupted him and said to Yi Jinli, "There's no need. He had already become a stranger to me when we broke up back then. I should be thankful. I got to see a relationship clearly because of a car accident."Xiao Ziqi's face turned pale, and he felt defeated. When Ling Yiran said these words, she didn't even look at him."In that case, good." Yi Jinli stood up and walked up to Xiao Ziqi. He patted him on the shoulder and said, "You should thank her for not wanting to take revenge on you. Otherwise, by this time next year, we wouldn't see the Xiao family's businesses in this city."Xiao Ziqi was terrified and he was sweating all over. He could only quickly thank Ling Yiran before he helped

"As long as Mr. Yi agrees, Miss Ling, you can leave the hospital whenever you wish," the doctor said.Ling Yiran felt an unspeakable feeling. So, she even needed Yi Jinli's consent just to leave the hospital?"Okay, got it," she replied.After the doctor and nurse both left, she walked into the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. Reflected in the mirror was a delicate face on which were a pair of crescent-shaped eyebrows and almond eyes, a well-shaped nose, and pink lips. Under the light, there seemed to be a slight glimmer over her face.Such a face would be considered pretty good in an ordinary crowd. However, around people like Yi Jinli, there was never a lack of beauty, and she seemed inadequate by comparison.What exactly did Yi Jinli like about her? Ling Yiran smiled bitterly. Was it just because he had found her mistaking him as a homeless person at the start amusing? Was that why he had continued to keep up this brother and sister charade?She raised her hand an

Ling Yiran's body froze. "That's right. Even if I yell right now, who is going to barge in and save me?"Saving me would be going against Yi Jinli. Who would be so stupid?"When she snapped out of her trance, his lips were kissing hers and he pried open her teeth, tasting all of her sweetness."No! I don't want it to be like this!"Almost subconsciously, she suddenly bit him.In the next moment, Ling Yiran's mouth was flooded with a bloody taste and she was taken aback. "That's... Yi Jinli's blood. I know, I just bit his tongue."Even so, he continued to kiss her, assertively forcing her to swallow his blood!She did not know how much time had passed. When the kiss ended, her lips felt numb and the bloody taste in her mouth was very strong."Did it taste good?" he asked quietly. The corners of his lips were raised and a trickle of blood was slowly flowing down from one side of his mouth.His faint smile was complemented by the dark red blood, making it seem extra bright.She

Ling Yiran returned to the rental apartment in a state of embarrassment. "It has only been a few days since I left on New Year's Eve and returned but it feels like I've experienced a whole lifetime in that period."She studied the cramped rental apartment and felt as if there was a chilliness in the air. Ling Yiran could not help smiling wryly. "From now on, I'll stay here alone once again."No one will accompany me and talk to me in the still of the night. Moreover, no one will smile as they call me 'Sister'!"She grabbed a set of fresh clothes and washed away her shame before starting to tidy up the house."Although Yi Jinli was here for only a short time, there are so many traces of him in the house. The cutlery, towel, and toothbrush he was using as well as the clothes and shoes he wore..."She cleared up everything and placed them all in a cardboard box."Why not throw them away?" she asked herself. "Keeping these things will just take up space, but I'd rather keep them. It

"Don't worry, it's fine," Ling Yiran answered. "Because actually... everyone at the Sanitation Service Center already knows about the accident that caused Hao Meiyu's death and my three years in prison."The man reclining on the sofa held his cheek with one hand and a glass of red wine in the other, sipping from it occasionally. The man looked beautiful and innocent, and there was a hint of allure that unwittingly emanated from between his brows. It was if a slight glance from him could make anyone fall deep into the tightly woven net within his eyes."Unable to escape or leave, I willingly falling into his trap."And it's no wonder that so many ladies of note in Shen City have feelings for him!" Ye Chongwei studied Yi Jinli as he drank alone and could not help sighing internally. "But they're all feelings and few people have turned those feelings into actions."After all, those who have taken 'action' have irritated Young Master Yi and ended up miserable, even becoming a joke in S
