Ling Yiran frowned. "Is Xiao Ziqi asking about... Jin?" "Mr. Xiao, why are you meddling with other people's business? Do I have to report to you whenever I am with my little brother?""Little brother? Since when did you have a little brother?" Xiao Ziqi asked. He only knew that she had a younger sister."I took him in as my younger brother, can't I do that?" she asked.Xiao Ziqi stared at Ling Yiran as if he wanted to check whether she was lying from her expression.At this moment, Sister Xu, who was sweeping the floor on the other side of the road, saw the commotion and ran over. "Mr. Xiao, please calm down. Don't use violence."Sister Xu recognized that Xiao Ziqi was the person who had accompanied Hao Yimeng when she had apologized at the Sanitation Service Center. According to the workers there, Xiao Ziqi was Yiran's ex-boyfriend."Mister Xiao, if you don't let go, aren't you afraid that someone will take a photo of you? If that happens, you will have to explain yourself to Mi
"Fang Qianqian, I don't want anyone to be hostile to my colleagues like this. Ling Yiran indeed served time in jail, but it doesn't mean that we should look at her with different eyes and not give her a chance to live. Since you feel that you can't work with Ling Yiran, I think you should quit your job now."She... she was an established member of staff! She was being dismissed just like that?! Fang Qianqian couldn't believe it. However, this was the truth!"Qianqian, say something," the voice next to her urged.Fang Qianqian looked around. When she saw Ling Yiran, she suddenly felt a rush of resentment. She stepped forward and said to Ling Yiran, "It's you. It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been dismissed by the director! You should be the one who is made to leave!"Everyone was shocked. The person who was being dismissed was... Fang Qianqian?!"Qianqian, are you kidding?""How is this possible!"Fang Qianqian glared at Ling Yiran with a face full of r
Although Ling Yiran said that he was her "little brother" in the morning, he felt that he had to see it for himself before he could rest assured.The car arrived at the gate of a community of farmer's houses. Xiao Ziqi got out of the car, entered the community, and searched the specific units. After some effort, he finally stopped in front of a narrow door.This was a typical farmer's rental house.Was Ling Yiran living here?Xiao Ziqi was about to knock on the door when he heard footsteps.Subconsciously, he hid in the shadow to one side and looked in the direction which the footsteps were coming from.It turned out that there was a tall figure coming towards him.As the figure got closer and closer, Xiao Ziqi's eyes grew wider and wider. The occasional speculation that he had thought was impossible had finally become a possibility.It was... Yi Jinli! It was really Yi Jinli!There was no way it was just a resemblance. It was absolutely impossible for them to look this simila
At the same time, Yi Jinli's attitude toward Ling Yiran... Xiao Ziqi felt that it could be described as "gentle".Master Young Master Yi had never been gentle to a woman. Even Hao Meiyu had never been treated like that.Suddenly, the matter of the advertisement being taken down flashed across Xiao Ziqi's mind. Previously, they had always thought that it was because of Ling Yiran. They thought that Yi Jinli hated the Xiao family because of her and did not like seeing the Xiao family proposing in such a high-profile way.But thinking about it, it was indeed because of Ling Yiran. However, the motive behind the action was completely different from what they had originally thought it was!Xiao Ziqi felt that his state of mind was in utter chaos.In the rented room, Ling Yiran was having a meal with Yi Jinli. Ling Yiran also told him about what had happened at the Sanitation Service Center. "I don't know why, but director Fang actually fired Fang Qianqian. I thought I would be the one
But at this moment, when he looked at his girlfriend wearing such a gorgeous dress, what he was thinking about in his mind was the scene from last night and Yi Jinli and Ling Yiran's faces.Even at this moment, he felt that everything he had seen last night was like a dream."What is going on, what is going on with Ling Yiran and Yi Jinli?!"Looking at her fiancé's absent-minded look, Hao Yimeng displeasedly frowned. "What's wrong with you? You have been zoning out a lot in the last two days. If you don't want to get engaged to me, just say it."Xiao Ziqi sighed and quickly smiled and said, "Of course not. Why wouldn't I want to get engaged to you? You know that my heart is only for you.""Only for me?" Hao Yimeng raised an eyebrow. "You really have no more feelings for Ling Yiran?"Xiao Ziqi's expression turned slightly stiff, and he said uncomfortably. "Why did you mention her again? I broke up with her three years ago. How could I still have feelings for her?""Well then why
Gao Congming said with a faint smile, "You will know when you meet Young Master Yi."Xiao Ziqi was getting more and more anxious.The car stopped at the door of the Yi Residence. Xiao Ziqi followed Gao Congming into the house and saw Yi Jinli sitting on the sofa, playing with an invitation card in his hand.When Xiao Ziqi approached, he saw that the invitation was for the engagement banquet that he and Hao Yimeng had invited Yi Jinli to."We meet again," Yi Jinli said faintly.Xiao Ziqi was stunned. At this moment, Yi Jinli was wearing an elegant grey-blue suit. His bangs were combed back, showing his smooth forehead. Next to his straight and tall nose were his beautiful amorous eyes which were flashing with a hint of laziness, and his sexy thin lips seemed to be slightly raised with an indescribable charm.It was no surprise that he attracted the attention of so many women. In the upper circles, many young ladies tried their best to attract the attention of Yi Jinli, only becaus
The cold glint in his amorous eyes made Xiao Ziqi feel a shiver run through his body."When you shouldn't ask something, don't. Why does Mr. Xiao not even understand this?" Gao Congming said from beside him.Xiao Ziqi's face went pale and he left feeling embarrassed.Yi Jinli leaned against the back of the sofa and took out a cheap mobile phone. There was only one number in the contacts list.He pressed that number. After a while, a gentle female voice sounded from the other end of the phone."Sis, what do you want to eat for dinner? I'll bring it back for you," he said softly. The coldness in his eyes was replaced with tenderness.At night, Ling Yiran was wiping the photo frame that held her mother's photo with a paper towel. She had gone to buy a small desk just to put this photo into in her small rental apartment. The photo frame had been put on the desk and she would clean it every few days.All of her mother's belongings had been left with the Ling Family. This photo was th
Ling Yiran was stunned. She had not been expecting the place where she met him to be the place where her father had passed away."Sorry," she said."He only had himself to blame for dying. Sis, there is no need for you to apologize," said Yi Jinli in a low voice."He only had himself to blame?" She was surprised. She hadn't been expecting him to describe his father's death that way."Was it not? He fell in love with someone he shouldn't have fallen in love with, then when she discovered that he was useless, he was cast aside. It didn't matter even if he kneeled down and begged. In the end, he died in despair and had frozen to death in the snow." Yi Jinli's expression was as indifferent as if he was just talking about something ordinary, and even his voice was as calm as usual.However, there seemed to be a lonely atmosphere around him.Ling Yiran felt as if he had returned to the first time she had seen him."Jin," she called out to him.He looked up, and her face was reflected
