Ling Yiran did not know how long it took, but when the kiss finally ended, she gasped like a fish on a chopping block.
Her long hair was a tad unruly, and her cheeks were blushing. Her serene almond-shaped eyes were glaring at him. Finally, her eyes were no longer as calm as usual. It was as if he finally existed in her eyes again.
Even though there was anger in her eyes, he was still fascinated.
He raised his hand and gently stroked her hair. Then, his lips came closer to her ear as he said in a hoarse voice, "Forget about falling for Gu Lichen..."
'Yes, I won't allow her to fall for Gu Lichen. She can only fall for me!'
A chill ran down her spine. "It's my business who I fall for—"
However, before she could finish, his lips were on hers again, swallowing all her voice...
...
There was a bit of a commotion at the charity gala too. After all, there had been a lot more commotion earlier.
When Qin Lianyi found out that Yi Jinli cleared the area and had a conflict with Gu Lichen, she was completely stunned!
'Yi Jinli? It's alright if Yi Jinli came to the gala, but why would he seal off the area? Is it because of…'
Qin Lianyi suddenly thought of Ling Yiran. Her best friend said she was leaving earlier. Could she have run into Yi Jinli?
There was someone in a lilac gown next to Gu Lichen, but it was not Yiran!
Standing next to Gu Lichen, Hua Lifang looked at his right hand that was dangling at his side. It was unnaturally twisted. "Lichen... is your hand okay? Why don't I accompany you to the hospital?"
However, Gu Lichen paid her no attention. His thin lips were pressed into a straight line as he told his men, "Get these reporters out of here. I don't want to see any rumors online about what happened tonight!"
"Yes!" his men responded, and the security guards began driving the reporters away.
Hua Lifang gritted her teeth in displeasure. She had hoped to show off her relationship with Lichen in front of the press and get onto a trending post online so that her coursemates in university and the film crew would not taunt her behind her back all day long!
Now there was one less chance!
