The Domineering Boss is Addicted to the Convict novel Chapter 149

They were still perplexed by the material evidence and the unanimous testimony provided by the witnesses to this very day.

"How dare those people treat you that way! They only criticize others from a moral high ground without knowing anything at all," Qin Lianyi said indignantly.

Ling Yiran calmly replied, "It means nothing to me."

Qin Lianyi recalled all the pain in her friend's body and could not help sighing. "When I first welcomed Yiran after she had left prison, I noticed all the wounds on her. There were both fresh and old ones. Although Yiran has never told me about what she endured in prison, I can probably guess.

"I'm afraid Yiran went through all sorts of hardships in prison."

"Is Jin really Yi Jinli?" Qin Lianyi asked, changing the topic of conversation.

"Yes." Ling Yiran nodded.

"But... if he's Yi Jinli, why would he pretend to be a homeless person and stay with you in the rental apartment for so long?" she asked. "I can't seem to figure out this point. Does Yi Jinli have some peculiar interests?"

"It's nothing but a game to him," Ling Yiran replied rather bitterly. "When I heard him say that with my own ears, I felt as if I was suffocating.

"Jin, who treated me so well, warmed my hands, waited by the door for me, and quietly listened to my woes, was nothing more than an illusion he created for a game. How absurd, and yet, how real!"

"A game?" Qin Lianyi was perplexed.

"Ever since that incident all those years ago, I've known that Yiran will be my best friend for life!"

"Thank you," Ling Yiran muttered. "When I helped Lianyi all those years ago, I was barely lifting a finger, but now, Lianyi has sacrificed so much to help me."

"That's right, what are your plans for the future?" Qin Lianyi asked.

"What else can I do? I'll go back to work at the Sanitation Service Center after New Year's," Ling Yiran replied.

"But the news of you being surrounded at the hospital entrance has already been uploaded to the internet. By now the Sanitation Service Center must know all about the incident from three years ago. How will your colleagues treat you...?" Qin Lianyi said worriedly.
