“Sometimes, it’s better to be less curious.” He looked away and drove the car.“Okay, understood.” Ling Luoyin portrayed an obedient look.She had stalked around and found that Gu Lichen liked obedient women. The more obedient they were, the longer they could stay with him. As for those who wanted to prove that they were an exception and wanted to be his ‘only one’, they were quickly dumped.Although she wanted to become his ‘exception’ and ‘only one’, she was not going to rush into things. She would slowly inch her way into his heart.“Lichen, thank you for the necklace you gave me today. I love it very much. However, I don’t think I have many opportunities to wear such a luxurious necklace.” Ling Luoyin started on a happy note but subsequently sounded regretful.She did not realize that her perfect performance was nothing but a joke in Gu Lichen’s eyes.After all, he had encountered too many women who liked to put up a show. “You can wear them when you attend the Starlight Banq

His dark eyes stared only at her. Ling Yiran who was drunk looked so delicate and alluring. ‘How many people have seen this side of her?‘Has Xiao Ziqi seen it before?’A sudden wave of jealousy rose in his heart. He was jealous that Xiao Ziqi had dated her before. While she was dating XIao Ziqi, had she ever used such a gentle tone to call out his name? How intimate were they while they were dating?“Are you being truthful that I’m good-looking?” he murmured back. He had the urge to keep her by his side and not allow anyone else to see such an attractive side of her.“Yup. Very much. Jin is the most handsome man I’ve ever seen.” She smiled as her fingers playfully tapped on the tip of his nose as if he was an interesting toy.Perhaps, she was the only one who could treat him like a toy.Suddenly, her expression changed. Her smile faded and was replaced with sadness. “Jin, I’ll treat you very well. Please don’t leave me, okay?”Her almond eyes looked misty. It seemed that he was

“After what they did to you and imprisoned you for so many days, aren’t you worried that they will hold a grudge against you and do worse things if they are released?” he asked.Ling Yiran remained silent. She understood the situation very well. After all that had happened, her uncle was not going to feel grateful to her for helping to release them. Instead, they would hold a bigger grudge toward her.“They are people I don’t care about. I can’t be bothered no matter how much they hate me, or what they think of me,” she looked down and calmly replied.However, such calmness made him inexplicably agitated.“What about me?” he suddenly asked.“What?” She was taken aback and could not react on time.He rested both hands by the bedside and leaned closer. “What about me? Do you care about me? Are you bothered about what I think of you?’Ling Yiran was stunned. If he was Jin, then she would surely care. However, he was now Yi Jinli...“I guess you can’t care less if I am bothered or

For someone like him, the gloves he usually wore should be those custom-made from a luxury brand!He watched her blank stare and added, “Consider it as your thank you gift for me releasing those splendid relatives of yours.”She looked embarrassed. “But I no longer have the measurements.” Back then, she had used a measuring tape to measure the size of his hands.Later, she had no plans of completing the gloves so she threw the paper which recorded those measurements.“If you’ve lost the measurements, then measure again,” he said directly.She had no choice but to take out the measuring tape, sit next to him, and measure the size of his hands.Of course, it was unavoidable for her to be in contact with his hands.Each time the tip of her fingers came in contact with his hand, she would be careful to avoid touching him as much as she could. She would even carefully hold the measuring tape with two fingers at the edge to carefully measure.He chuckled at her actions. “Yesterday yo

“But no matter how much my qualifications grow, I still can’t catch your eye, right?” he asked.In an instant, it seemed that something had been stuffed into Ling Yiran’s mouth.Guo Xinli gave a self-deprecating laugh immediately after. “Actually, before you said those things, I had already thought of changing my job. After all, working in the Sanitation Service Center, you can predict the rest of your life with just one look. I want to take the chance while I’m still not yet 30 to give myself more of a challenge.”A challenge? If the Ling Yiran from before had been given a choice of an unknown life full of challenges or a steady one that could be fully predicted with just one glance, she was afraid she would have chosen the former.Only after experiencing so many things did she know that stability was actually the most important.Ling Yiran took a deep breath and said, “Actually, what I said to you that day, you really don’t have to mind it too much. I only didn’t want you to spe
