And yet the pair of eyes behind his bang were abnormally clear as if it was only a simple question to him."Uh... Jin seems very innocent. He probably doesn't mean anything by the question."Ling Yiran thought to herself, then she cleared her throat and said, "I can like my younger brother but it isn't love. It's two different feelings. I thought loving someone was forever and irreplaceable. I even... thought that lovers could live and die together."His dark eyes narrowed instantly. "Live and die together? Strangely, when I heard her answer, the first thought that struck me was that... it sounds pretty good to live and die with her."So does that mean I've fallen in love with her?"How could that be?" He laughed as the idea crossed his mind."I must I admit, I have feelings for her. I'm sentimentally attached to her and I care for her. It seems as if I've unconsciously started to be obsessed with the feeling of being next to her. If not, I wouldn't have played this game for so l
Just then, Fang Qianqian walked over, looking at Ling Yiran in contempt and said, “Sister Xu, why are you talking to her? She’s been to jail! She’s taken a human’s life!”"Qianqian, we're all colleagues. Why do you have to say that? Besides, Yiran went to jail because she wasn't driving carefully..."Sister Xu had barely finished speaking when Fang Qianqian interrupted her. "But the person she killed was Hao Meiyu. Sister Xu, do you know who Hao Meiyu is? She's Hao Yimeng's sister! I was wondering why Hao Yimeng wanted so many of our colleagues to look for a non-existent ring. It was because she was targeting Ling Yiran and we were all dragged into it.""But didn't she also apologize and compensate us?" Sister Xu asked.Fang Qianqian's expression was unpleasant and she was clearly not pleased with Sister Xu standing up for Ling Yiran. She had been the one who had leaked the news of Ling Yiran's imprisonment.She had accidentally come across Ling Yiran speaking to Xiao Ziqi and Hao
—Ling Yiran returned to the rental apartment at night. Just as she was having dinner with Yi Jinli, someone knocked at the door.Ling Yiran was startled. "I never usually have visitors. Could it be that my father, stepmother, and sister are here?!"But when she opened the door, she was surprised to see Guo Xinli standing outside.Guo Xinli was wearing a black cotton shirt and his face was slightly red. He looked at Ling Yiran and spoke rather uneasily, "I..." He had barely opened his mouth when he noticed Yi Jinli, who had walked over to stand behind Ling Yiran, and he stopped suddenly as if he was hesitating.Yi Jinli studied the man standing outside the house. "I remember this man. He's Ling Yiran's colleague from the Sanitation Service Center and he seems to have feelings for her.""Why are you here? Are you looking for Sister?" Yi Jinli asked."I... I have some business to discuss with Yiran privately," Guo Xinli said with a flushed face, then he glanced at Ling Yiran and a
"Sister, do you like that man because he said those things?" he murmured and asked. There was a hint of jealousy in his eyes that even he was unaware of.His scent permeated her senses and the close distance made her at a loss over what to do. An instinctual sense of crisis was emerging within her. "It feels like if I give the wrong answer, in the next moment a ferocious beast will violently pounce on me and snap my neck."Oh God, what am I thinking?!"Ling Yiran laughed at herself internally at the idea that had just crossed her mind. "The person before me is Jin. He's not some dangerous character.""I don't like Guo Xinli," she replied. "I can only apologize to him for his feelings for me."Her reply improved his mood immediately. He stared at her and asked, "Sister, do you really not like that man?""Why would I lie to you?" she retorted. "Ever since I got out of jail, I've never even considered the idea of falling in love with someone. Love is a feeling that is too burdensome
"Even in the past, it was already such a difficult task being able to find a job to provide for myself.""But you can't waste your years doing this job. How can you find a good husband like this?!" The biggest concern for people like Sister Xu was marriage. "Guo doesn't seem to mind your past. Are you sure you don't want to consider it? Honest men like Guo are rare nowadays.""No, it's impossible for me and him," Ling Yiran replied.Sister Xu hesitated before asking, "Yiran, do you think that Guo is of a lower class because he's just a driver? After all, your ex-boyfriend was...""Sister Xu!" Ling Yiran interrupted her and said, "I don't think that. It's just... I've been through so much, I'm not in the mood to fall in love.""Oh, you child!" Sister Xu let out a sigh. "You should know that if you really don't marry and stay by yourself, you might not feel it that much now, but when you're old with no children around you... it's going to be a kind of loneliness that no one can endu
Back then, he had just gotten off work and had noticed her squatting by the roadside. She had been continuously comforting a young girl who was bawling. She had sung and jumped, making all sorts of funny poses as if she did not care at all about the strange glances coming from the surrounding crowd.Ultimately, she had succeeded and the young girl had stopped crying.Then, she had bought a bun for the little girl to eat on the spot. She called the police and waited there, intending to see if the little girl's family would come looking for her.In the end, the police and the little girl's family had come over. The girl's parents had taken out several hundred yuan and wanted to stuff them into her hands as a symbol of their appreciation, but she had just shaken her head with a laugh, not accepting a single penny from them.When the parents had left with the little girl in their arms, she had stood studying the backs of the family with a content smile.At that time, Guo Xinli had fel
"So, you were holding onto Guo Xinli while getting it on with another man!" Fang Qianqian's voice suddenly sounded out.Ling Yiran felt a headache coming on. The world seemed never to lack people like Fang Qianqian.Yi Jinli turned around and looked coldly at the mediocre and cheap-looking woman behind them.There was a flash of surprise in Fang Qianqian's eyes when she saw Yi Jinli. This man was even more handsome than the male leads in TV series.Although the other party's bangs were a little long, it made her feel that if he was to take good care of his hairstyle and change his clothes, he could definitely push the male stars out of their spots on the ranking tables.Fang Qianqian was immediately jealous. "Why does Ling Yiran deserve all of this? Not only is she liked by Guo, but she also has such a handsome man accompanying her!"She suddenly raised the corners of her mouth and showed a vicious smile. "Are you Ling Yiran's friend? You probably don't know that she has been in
In the past, she and her law firm colleagues had often come here to have a meal after work. For her at that time, eating here was like having a work meal.But now, it had become a luxurious event that could only be enjoyed every once a while."That's pretty good. Sis, you can do the ordering later." Yi Jinli cleanly interrupted her thoughts.Ling Yiran ordered all the cheaper dishes, with the most expensive one being a shrimp dish, which was 48 yuan. The total price of all the dishes came to 178 yuan.Although it wasn't a lot of money, it was already the most expensive meal Ling Yiran had had for a while.That was despite the fact that Yi Jinli kept trying to persuade her to order a little more. "Sis, I have money."However, Ling Yiran still said, "This is enough. Even if it's for a good meal, there's no need to order too much."After a while, the waiter served the dishes, and they started to eat. The dishes here were naturally much better than the simple ones they usually ate.
