"But if I'm dismissed with no income, then the rent as well as the money for food and living...""You still have me!" he exclaimed. "I'll earn money to take care of you, so you don't have to worry about it much."Ling Yiran stared dazedly at the man before her. "Even though I know he only does some odd jobs every day and can't make much money at all, the things he's saying now are giving me an unprecedented sense of security."My life is no longer lonely and helpless with no support. I can rely on Jin.""Make the call." He brought the phone before her.She pursed her lips and called the group leader in charge of the sanitary workers at the Sanitation Service Center.She had thought that the group leader would deliberately make it difficult for her to apply for a long period of leave, but to her surprise, when she asked for one week's leave, the group leader hastened to agree. He had even said that if one week was not enough, she could ask for two. Furthermore, she would still be

But almost immediately, Gao Congming reminded himself not to make blind conjectures. "This is not something I should be speculating about."Gao Congming gently closed the door of the rental apartment. Inside the house, Yi Jinli studied the woman who was still in a deep slumber and placed the medicine in his hand by her rather dry lips. "Be good and take the medicine."However, she subconsciously pursed her lips tighter. He could not even get the pill in, let alone have her swallow it.Yi Jinli's thin lips pinched into a straight line. He then put the pill in his mouth with some water and lowered his head to get closer to Ling Yiran's lips.He pressed his lips onto hers and used the tip of his tongue to pry open her mouth, pushing the pill inside. "It's not as if there aren't any other methods, and yet, inexplicably, I'm still using this technique to feed her the pill."Even though the pill was already in her mouth, he still missed her lips."It's like a kind of greed or a type of

Xiao Ziqi wanted to repent before Yi Jinli but he had no opportunity to meet him at all. Therefore, he could only stand by the entrance of Ling Yiran's housing estate. When Xiao Ziqi noticed a Bentley parked not far away from the property and a figure getting out of the car at the estate's entrance, he hurriedly got out of his car to approach the man."President Yi, the incident that happened before was because my younger sister did not have the sense of propriety. Please show your moral superiority by being merciful and letting the Xiao family off the hook," Xiao Ziqi pleaded with a modest attitude."Let the Xiao family off the hook?" Yi Jinli snorted lightly."If you have any conditions, please list them. I will accept any request that I am capable of fulfilling."Yi Jinli's beautiful and amorous eyes stared coldly at the man before him. In an instant, Xiao Ziqi felt as if all his blood had frozen. Yi Jinli's gaze made him feel as if he was being targeted by a ferocious beast and

"Oh God, what am I thinking? Why would I think that?""It feels weird standing too close," Ling Yiran explained."All right then," he said and removed his hand. He took a step back and tidied up the things on the table.She let out a sigh of relief and stroked her own cheeks, which felt warm."By the way, Sister, just now when we were standing that close, did you want to kiss me?" he asked unexpectedly, stunning her.Her black, almond-like eyes blinked and she felt her cheeks beneath her palms turn even warmer."Is it a very hard question to answer?" he asked with a slightly arched brow."I... I of course...""If it were Sister, I would allow it," he replied, cutting off her sentence. "I don't like other women kissing me, but if it were Sister, it would be okay."Sunlight shone into the house through the narrow glass window and landed on him."His expression is so serious. It's as if he's telling me that what he just said was serious."For a brief moment, the latter half of

At this moment, Yi Jinli ended the call and said to Gao Congming, "For the rest of today's meeting, finish it up for me and give me the conference record tomorrow.""Then what about you, Master Yi?""Yiran suddenly woke up and asked me where I went. I'm going back now," Yi Jinli replied. "The general direction of the meeting has been set anyway. What's left are only some small details."After saying that, he walked out of the room. A lot of the senior overseas executives who were sitting there started talking about what had happened as soon as they saw their boss leave.At this time, Gao Congming faced an onslaught of questions."Secretary Gao, what's going on?""Why did Mr. Yi leave?""Who called him just now?""Oh, I can tell from President Yi's expression just now that he must be in love."Foreign romanticists usually told this kind of story.Gao Congming could only smile awkwardly. "Okay, let's continue with the meeting." "Love? Does this count as love for Young Master Yi
