Gao Congming quickly stated, "No, I wouldn't dare! I just hope you can understand the truth and not misunderstand Young Madam. Her feelings for you are true, and she probably did it on the spur of the moment."
"If her feelings for me were true and she was willing to give up her life for me, then why would she betray me for someone else? Is my mother, who abandoned her husband and son, more important than her life?" Yi Jinli asked with a sneer.
Gao Congming immediately shut up, knowing that Young Master Yi would get mad again if he continued!
When Yi Jinli almost finished the work at hand, there was finally a knock on the study’s door.
Gao Congming let out a sigh of relief, thinking it must be Ling Yiran.
Sure enough, when the door was pushed open, Ling Yiran walked in and sat down on the couch. She was quiet and did not disturb them, just like the previous days.
Yi Jinli glanced at Ling Yiran out of the corners of his eyes. His restless heart seemed to have suddenly calmed down because of her appearance.
After telling Gao Congming some more things, Yi Jinli said, "That's all for today."
"Then I'm going home," said Gao Congming as he quickly left the study.
Ling Yiran got up and approached Yi Jinli. "Are you done with work?"
"How long are you going to stay here?" Yi Jinli asked out of the blue.
She blurted out a long string of words as if the emotions she had been repressing for days finally burst.
Surprise flashed across Yi Jinli's eyes. He did not expect the person in front of him to speak so loudly!
Her wet eyes and that sonorous, powerful voice seemed to be expressing her grievances. "Yi Jinli, believe it or not, you'll never meet another woman who will love you more than I do!"
With that said, she suddenly released her grip, turned, and ran out of the study, leaving him alone. He sat in his chair and brushed his hand lightly against the collar of his shirt, which she had just grabbed.
"So, are you trying to say you're the woman who loves me the most?" he muttered to himself.
