On the way back with Yi Jinli, Ling Yiran suddenly said, "Jin, do you know Xiao Ziqi?""The president of the Xiao Group?" he asked."You know him too then. Yes, he's the guy who's been in the gossip news recently. He's the groom in the marriage between the Xiao family and Hao family, and... he's also..." She paused and hesitated for a moment before saying, "My ex-boyfriend."Yi Jinli also stopped walking and stood quietly by Ling Yiran's side, looking at her.Perhaps some words or some emotions had been bottled up in her heart for too long, so she could not help but want to spit them out at this moment. "Don't you think it is incredible that someone like me was once that person's girlfriend?"She laughed at herself. "At that time, I was still a new lawyer who had just graduated, and I thought that he and I would get married. However, I had not been expecting that in a car accident I would be charged with driving under the influence and causing death. At that time, he couldn't wait
When she heard this, she just took it as a joke. This had been specially made by the Xiao family and the Hao family for their marriage alliance. Who dared to take it down? It was dark in front of her eyes. His hand was touching her skin, and there was a warm feeling coming from it.After a while, she pulled his hand down and looked up at him. "Jin, thank you." She thought that he was trying to comfort her by saying these things. "Alright, let's go. Let's go home for dinner." As she spoke, she held his hand and walked in the direction of their residence.He glanced at the big projection ad and then followed her steps to leave.—Back at the rental apartment, Ling Yiran went to the security office in the community to retrieve an express delivery. It was the woollen sweater she had bought.She opened the express delivery, took out the sweater, and touched the material. It was not bad. For that price, the quality was quite good."Jin, come and see if this sweater suits you," she said
He stared at her. "Sister, do you think that I make too little money?""Ah, no!" she said in denial. "I just want you to have a better life." Perhaps this was all there was to her life, but she wanted something better for him."I will have a better life. When the time comes, I can give you whatever kind of life you want," he looked at her seriously and said.This was just a game for him, but at this moment, he really wanted to give her a better life in the future. For him, that would also be a piece of cake.Ling Yiran laughed. She did not think that Jin could give her the life she wanted. However, she did not want to hurt the other party's self-esteem either, so she said, "Okay, okay, then I'll wait until Jin earns a lot of money to look after me in the future with. That way, I'll be able to live comfortably as someone who knows nothing except for relying on you.""Okay," he agreed, his eyes glinting with determination. "As long as she is willing, I'll make sure that she will liv
"There should be ninety-nine," Gao Congming said. He remembered that there had been media interviews in which Xiao Ziqi had said that there would be a total of 99 projection ads, representing the love of 99 lifetimes.This sentence also became a classic for many fans of Hao Yimeng. Hao Yimeng was now a popular female star in the entertainment circle, so naturally, she had a lot of fans."Remove all of them," Yi Jinli said."All of them?" Gao Congming was surprised."All of them," Yi Jinli said with certainty."Okay, I will do it." Young Master Yi suddenly wanted to withdraw the projection ads of the Xiao family. Had the Xiao family or the Hao family offended Young Master Yi? Or did he not like the marriage alliance between the two families? However, hadn't Young Master Yi accepted the engagement invitation from the Xiao and Hao families before?Gao Congming was puzzled. Suddenly, he shivered and thought of a striking possibility."Could it be that Young Master Yi wants to withdr
"Who are you calling brother-in-law?" A voice suddenly rang out. A beautiful and fashionable woman dressed in a brown coat approached them. She laughed coldly when she noticed Ling Luoyin. "I was wondering who this is, turns out you're that murderer's little sister."Ling Luoyin's expression immediately turned unpleasant. She recognized that the woman standing before her was Hao Yimeng, Xiao Ziqi's current fiancée.Hao Yimeng approached Ling Luoyin with a disdainful gaze. "I remember you're just a player. So, you've come to find Ziqi today and call him brother-in-law in the hope that he will give you a leading lady role? Your skin sure is thick."Ling Luoyin was extremely embarrassed by the scolding. It just so happened that other people were coming and going along the corridor at that moment, staring at them as if they were watching a play.Ling Luoyin could only curse Ling Yiran internally. "If she hadn't killed someone while driving, I would already have gracefully become a pop
Hao Yimeng frowned as well and glanced at Xiao Ziqi. After all, the ad was being projected by the Xiao family.Xiao Ziqi replied, "Let me ask about the situation..."He had barely finished speaking when his phone rang suddenly. When he picked up the call, his expression abruptly turned unpleasant. "What? Taken down? They were all taken down? Aren't they afraid of paying the penalty fees?""The order stated that even if they have to pay the penalty fees in full, the ads must be taken down." The manager in charge cried as he reported through the phone. "President Xiao, we rushed to contact other companies but none of them were willing to project these ads."In other words, other than enterprises under the Hao or Xiao name, no other companies would play this projection ad."Who is it that's trying to go against the Xiao family?" Xiao Ziqi asked, his face ghastly pale."It's the Yi family," the manager replied. "This issue was personally handled by the Yi Group's secretary Gao Congmi
His body froze slightly but he did not resist. He lay his head on her shoulder and felt her smell enveloping him.The smell with its faint fragrance inexplicably gave him a feeling of contentment.It was as if being by her side allowed him to completely relax."Jin, didn't you say that you would never abandon me? I'm the same, I will never abandon you. No matter what happens in the future, I will stay by your side."Her voice slowly resounded by his ear."Would you really stay by my side no matter what happened?" he mumbled as he asked."Of course," she replied matter-of-factly."Won't you be scared of me?" he asked.She chuckled lightly. "Why would I be scared of you? My Jin is so obedient, I can hardly wait to get closer to you.""My Jin... Oh, this wording makes it sound like I belong to hers, and yet I am not averse to the expression. I might even... be happy about it."He raised his head and suddenly their faces were only inches apart. The tips of their noses were almost
Ling Yiran had not been expecting to come across Hao Yimeng again so quickly.Hao Yimeng looked the same as when Ling Yiran had met her for the first time all those years ago. She was good-looking with meticulously applied makeup and dressed in haute couture. She was a celebrity in the film and television circles and also veritably a socialite within the city.Even then, when Hao Yimeng permitted others to rip out her nails, she was still dressed exquisitely. Her expensive and branded clothes stood out in the dark prison.She looked so radiant and glamorous.It was also this city socialite, highly esteemed by everyone else, who used a venomous tone to give the order to rip out my nails and carried out such a cruel lynching!Hao Yimeng has become a nightmare she can't escape from!Fang Qianmei, who was accompanying Hao Yimeng, also noticed Ling Yiran and immediately sneered. "I was wondering who this is. Yimeng, isn't she the perpetrator who killed your sister? This sure is karma.
