However, she could not take a chance. She could not afford to lose Lil Yan. Lil Yan had become the motivation for her to live!
Ling Yiran knew that she had no way of getting in on this, so she could only say, "You can always let me know if you need my help."
"Thank you!" Zhuo Qianyun said with a smile, "In fact, you've helped me a lot. If it weren't for you, Lil Yan might not be able to..."
Just then, a figure suddenly broke into the restaurant, interrupting Zhuo Qianyun.
Gu Lichen ran in, panting. Under Zhuo Qianyun and Ling Yiran’s surprised eyes, he grabbed Ling Yiran by the arm and asked urgently, "Are you marrying Yi Jinli?"
Ling Yiran was shocked. It had not been made public yet. She only mentioned it to Lianyi and Sis Zhuo.
"Yes," she gave an affirmative answer.
"Why?"
"Because I love him and he loves me. Isn't it a matter of course for us to get married?" She looked at him calmly and said, "Please let go, Mr. Gu!"
Fortunately, it was evening and almost closing time, so there were only a few customers in the shop. Otherwise, it might cause a stir again.
"You love him?" Gu Lichen felt like he was being stabbed in his heart with a sharp sword. The pain almost suffocated him. "You clearly said you'd like to be with me forever!"
Ling Yiran frowned. She looked at Gu Lichen with a puzzled expression. "I've never said anything like that."
"You did say that! You said you thought you were dispensable and I said you weren't. I told you you’re important to me, then you said if only we could be together forever!" he answered.
There were even moments when she wondered if it would be better if she had gone to heaven with her mother!
However, she did not remember telling Gu Lichen all this! Therefore, it was just a coincidence!
"As I said, you've mistaken me for someone else, Mr. Gu," said Ling Yiran.
"I’m not mistaking you for someone else! Yiran, don't marry Yi Jinli, all right? I don't know why you won't admit ever meeting me back then. Is it because of Yi Jinli? Or did you really forget? I've been looking for you for so many years. There hasn't been a day since we parted that I didn't miss you..." Gu Lichen insisted.
Then, he raised his hand to touch her face. He wanted to tell her how much he missed her and how much he regretted letting go of her hand in the hospital.
However, she immediately turned her face away, letting his hand fall.
