The Domineering Boss is Addicted to the Convict novel Chapter 1193

"I don't get it. Set him up? What would be in it for me?" asked Hua Lifang.

That was what Ling Yiran was wondering about. "You don't even want to settle, do you?"

"Would you like to settle with a man who wanted to rape you?" asked Hua Lifang, almost admiring the grim expression on Ling Yiran's face.

This time, she felt like she had the upper hand.

Ling Yiran took a deep breath. "'Have you ever thought about how you're going to stigmatize a man for the rest of his life by doing this? He won't be able to hold his head up."

"Yiran, don't keep on saying that I set Guo Xinli up. You're also a lawyer. You should know that you have to show evidence for everything!" Hua Lifang said proudly.

"What can I do for you to let Guo Xinli go?" Ling Yiran took a deep breath and said, "Just name it, and I'll do what I can."

Although she did not understand Hua Lifang's intention, she had a feeling that it had something to do with her! Maybe it was because of her that Hua Lifang framed Guo Xinli.

"Even if I want you to stop being a lawyer henceforth?" Hua Lifang scoffed.

"Yes," Ling Yiran replied flatly. If Guo Xinli was unjustly put in prison because of her, she would have gone against the justice in her heart even if she could become a lawyer.

What was the point of being a lawyer like that?

Gu Lichen only felt a sharp pain in his chest. He remembered the results of the investigation he had asked his men to do. Guo Xinli used to have a crush on Yiran when they were at the Sanitation Service Center. He even had the people at the Sanitation Service Center put in a good word because he wanted to date Ling Yiran.

What about her? Was that man just a friend to her? Or maybe... there was a deeper concern?

For a moment, a wave of jealousy filled his body. He knew she had never promised him anything, and he did not even have the right to be jealous, but he could not restrain himself. "If I ask you not to participate and interfere in this case, would you... say yes?"

There was an almost imperceptible quiver in his voice as he said this, and his hands that were by his sides trembled.

He was gambling on how important Guo Xinli was in her heart!
