It was so familiar it made her have the sudden urge to cry.'That's... Lichen! He's here! He's really here! He'll save me! He'll save me!'"Li..." She opened her mouth with difficulty to call out to him.He was like a piece of driftwood that a drowning person like her desperately wanted to hold on to.Just then, she saw him pick up the phone and seemingly listen to something. Then, his expression changed, and he turned around to leave.'No, don't go!’"Lichen!" she shouted hoarsely with almost all her strength.Even though she shouted as hard as she could, she was drowned out by the noise around her.'Did he not hear me shout? Is he... leaving?'However, she saw him turn and look in her direction.'He... saw me!'Zhong Keke was delighted. If Lichen was by her side, she would not have to be afraid... Lichen would protect her. With him around...However, her pupils soon shrank, and her face was filled with shock because she saw him turn around and hurry away.A sharp pain in
"I've seen the video of the incident at the comic fiesta. How is Keke doing?"Zhou Xinmian was surprised. "Video? Did you see it online?""Zhou Xinmian, tell me how Keke is doing?" Yan Luochu shouted impatiently.Zhou Xinmian felt as if she was going to turn deaf. "I've accompanied Keke back to her apartment. Where did you watch the video?"However, Yan Luochu hung up instead of answering her.Zhou Xinmian glared at her phone, and something was caught in her throat.She quickly opened the web search page on her phone. She soon found a lot of videos about the incident that took place at the comic fiesta that recorded Zhong Haocheng’s accusations and all sorts of things and drinks being thrown at Keke. Many people blamed Keke for bringing it upon herself in the comments below! Some people even said Keke probably fooled Gu Lichen into dating her and that they would break up soon.Zhou Xinmian was furious to read the comments!They would probably need Gu Lichen to take care of th
'Videos...' Zhong Keke froze slightly before understanding what had happened.Yeah, many people were filming with their phones. Of course, there would be people who uploaded the videos they recorded to the internet. While laughing at herself, Zhong Keke looked at Yan Luochu. "Mr. Yan, I think we're not even friends, so I have nothing to do with you. This is my home, and you're not welcome here. Please get out."Yan Luochu said, "Keke, I'm just worried about you! I know I've made a lot of mistakes. I just want you to be okay."He wanted to protect her and make things right! However, he realized in the end that she would not even let him make it up to her."No need," Zhong Keke said hoarsely. She looked exhausted. "Yan Luochu, I'm exhausted today. I really don't want to deal with you anymore and only want some time alone. If you think you've wronged me, leave me alone."Yan Luochu was about to say something but eventually smiled bitterly. "Alright, I got it. I'll leave. Have a goo
However Zhong Keke's self-mockery became more obvious. "Are you so sure? Nothing in this world is for sure. It is never a 'matter-of-fact' that he should help me.""You have to call him and let him know,” said Zhou Xinmian.Just then, Zhong Keke's eyes fell on a related video link below the video. However, the video was not about the comic fiesta but Gu Lichen.Zhong Keke clicked on the video to see a car stop in front of a hospital. It was... Gu Lichen's car. She recognized it.A figure hurriedly got out of the car and hurried into the hospital.The time the video was filmed was also stated. It was not long after the comic fiesta incident.Zhong Keke looked blankly at the video. 'What is Lichen doing at the hospital?'Zhou Xinmian, who was at her side, also watched the video with Zhong Keke and said in confusion, "Isn't this Gu Lichen? What was he doing at a maternity hospital? And why was he in such a hurry? Did someone in his family give birth?"'Give birth?' Zhong Keke was
"Got it!" said Zhong Keke. She would like to meet Lichen no matter what!However, her mood now differed from the night she went to his mansion to see him!...At the hospital, Zhuo Qianyun put away her phone and looked at Gu Lichen who was still anxiously waiting outside the operating room.When she and Yi Jinli sent Yiran to the hospital, they did not expect Gu Lichen to get news about it and arrive at the hospital not long after.Yiran had to undergo a C-section because her water broke early.However, there were too many risks to giving birth to the baby, and it was unclear whether Yiran could keep her uterus.Zhuo Qianyun was uneasy as she thought of this.They were standing outside the operating room, hoping that the doctor would come out and give them some good news.It was quiet outside the operating room.Yi Jinli and Gu Lichen stared closely at the operating room. There were obvious concern, anxiety, and unease on their faces.Who would have thought that the two men
"Would Yiran be pregnant if it weren’t for you? Didn't you say you value her more than your own life? Is putting her through all this pain how you value her?" snapped Gu Lichen.Yi Jinli's face darkened. "Gu Lichen, what's the matter? Haven't you given up on Yiran?"He suddenly sneered. "Give up? Yi Jinli, if you hadn't interfered, how could I have mistaken someone else for Yiran and recognized her so late? If I had recognized her sooner and if she had fallen for me, I would never have let her suffer what she suffered today!"Zhong Keke never expected that the first thing she heard was Gu Lichen's speech when she arrived at the hospital and passed the place guarded by the Yi family's bodyguards.Maybe everything was meant to be.She heard those words because the Yi family's bodyguards recognized her and let her in.Sure enough, Lichen loved Yiran. He loved her before and still did.Losing Ling Yiran was the biggest regret of his life. Who was she for him to transfer such deep fe
Zhong Keke only looked straight at the operating room door without glancing at Gu Lichen.When Ling Yiran was wheeled out of the operating room, she was still in a coma because of the anesthetic. Zhong Keke accompanied her to the ward. Envy flickered in her eyes when she saw Yi Jinli guarding the hospital bed.Everyone in Shen City knew Young Master Yi.Rumor had it that Young Master Yi was cold and heartless, but he loved his wife very much.Having requited love was something many people were after but failed to get. For example... her."Sis Zhuo, I'll go back first," Zhong Keke said to Zhuo Qianyun nearby.Zhuo Qianyun said, "I'll go back with you and come back tomorrow to see Yiran."Therefore, they bade Yi Jinli goodbye and walked out of the ward.However, Zhong Keke stopped as soon as she left the ward. Gu Lichen was standing in the corridor not far away, looking straight at her.Zhong Keke pressed her lips slightly, turned to Zhuo Qianyun, and said, "Sis Zhuo, go ahead f
She smiled faintly. "Really, I don't blame you because you never lied to me." She knew since the beginning that he had another woman in his heart.He had also clarified that he did not love her when they started dating.In that case, how could she expect him to run to her first when she and Ling Yiran were both in trouble?Gu Lichen pressed his thin lips tightly, his uneasiness growing.Zhong Keke quietly watched the person in front of her as she gently lifted her fingers and touched his brow, nose bridge, and eventually his lips.Everyone said men with thin lips were heartless.However, Gu Lichen was not heartless. He had just given all his feelings to another woman.Zhong Keke laughed at herself and said to Gu Lichen, "I said before that I wouldn’t do anything too intimate like kissing you until you had fallen in love with me, but I want to take that back. Can I?"Gu Lichen froze. What she said was out of his expectation.Then, she put her hands gently around his neck, pulle
