The Domineering Boss is Addicted to the Convict novel Chapter 657

Someone saw Ling Yiran coming in and immediately said, "Hey, I used to think that Yiran was the most promising person in your family. Who would have thought that the most promising one as a child is now the most down and out, and Lifang is the most promising person in the Lu family?"

The person was trying to flatter Hua Lifang by belittling Ling Yiran, which was something Hua Lifang liked to hear. After all, since they were young, they were always compared to each other because they looked alike and were so close in age.

In the past, Ling Yiran was the type of student who excelled in school and even got into a prestigious university, so Hua Lifang was naturally embarrassed when compared to her.

Therefore, Hua Lifang would love to be able to hold her head high in front of Ling Yiran, but that was before knowing that Ling Yiran's boyfriend was Yi Jinli.

Now that she knew Yi Jinli's true identity, Hua Lifang only thought the relative who said that deserved a beating! She immediately looked embarrassed.

As if that was not enough, the person went on and said, "Maybe your grandmother's illness was triggered by Yiran. How could she not be triggered by a family member who has been to prison? It's a good thing that you saved Young Master Gu when you were a child, Lifang. He has been looking for you for so many years. You’re going to live well from now on and need not worry for the rest of your life."

Hua Lifang's face paled as she glanced at Ling Yiran with the corner of her eyes, fearing that this would remind her of something.

However, she met Yi Jinli's eyes instead. His dark eyes seemed to be mocking her and that made her heart flurry.

It was as if he knew she was just an impostor.

"All right, that's enough!" Hua Lifang hurriedly stopped the relative and said, "What does Grandma's illness have to do with Yiran? Saying that when Grandma's not even buried yet is just way out of line!"

Hua Lifang then hurried over to Ling Yiran and comforted her by saying, "Don't mind them, Yiran. They're just talking nonsense. We mustn't let it come between us."

The relative who was scolded by Hua Lifang looked dumbfounded. 'Did I rub her the wrong way? Isn't Hua Lifang always saying that Ling Yiran is an ex-convict?'

"If you're sleepy, just lean on my shoulder and take a nap," said Yi Jinli.

"It's all right, I can manage it," said Ling Yiran. Looking at her grandmother through the transparent coffin lid, she looked like she was sound asleep inside. "Indeed, people don't bring anything with them when they’re born and the same goes for when they die. It feels like people live their whole lives, and sometimes they don't know what they’re living for."

"Not necessarily. At least I know what I live for," said Yi Jinli.

Ling Yiran turned her head to Yi Jinli only to see his thin lips opening and closing as he said, "I must be living to meet you and fall in love with you."

After falling in love with her, he felt that he was not alive to stay alive. He now had something he looked forward to and a hopeful future ahead of him.
