The way Yi Jinli was looking at her somehow gave her a sense of danger. She even... instinctively wanted to run away!
She wanted to run to somewhere so far away where he could not see her!
Suddenly, a hand took hers. "Are you scared?"
Ling Yiran came back to her senses and realized that Gu Lichen was holding her hand. Their hands were shaking slightly.
No, it was only her hand that was shaking!
'Am I scared? Am I scared of Yi Jinli?'
"Don't be scared. I'll handle it." Gu Lichen's voice rang in her ears.
Ling Yiran took a deep breath, and the shaking in her hands gradually stopped.
She looked at Yi Jinli who was walking toward her step by step. His eyes were fixed on her, his gaze never once leaving. It was as if he was silently telling her that he was here for her!
'No way!'
Ling Yiran thought she must be overthinking. Even if Yi Jinli was looking for her, there was no need to make such a big fuss over it. Besides... she had made it very clear to Yi Jinli that there was no way she would get back together with him!
The tall figure came up to Ling Yiran, and there was a cold chill in his bright eyes. However, his lips were slightly raised in a beautiful arc.
"I didn't know you liked these parties. Why are you leaving so early, though? Won't you stay a little longer?" said Yi Jinli as he looked at Ling Yiran. He spoke so gently that it was as if they were having a casual chat.
Gu Lichen frowned, wondering what trick Yi Jinli was trying to pull by calling Ling Yiran ‘Sis’.
However... "I won't let you take Yiran away," he said.
Nevertheless, Yi Jinli did not seem to hear him. His eyes fell on Gu Lichen and Ling Yiran's clasped hands. He muttered, "How annoying."
The next moment, Yi Jinli suddenly grabbed Gu Lichen's hand. Ling Yiran just heard a crack and Gu Lichen's hand was immediately twisted unnaturally. Pain flashed across his handsome face.
Ling Yiran was shocked. "Did... Did you break his hand?" She looked at Yi Jinli in disbelief.
The people around him were even more surprised. They had no idea that Young Master Yi would ‘simply’ break Young Master Gu's hand.
