The Domineering Boss is Addicted to the Convict novel Chapter 701

It was only after hearing that he liked purple that she seemed to have changed her mind about the purple gown.

'Is… She trying to distance herself from me?'

The thought flashed through Gu Lichen's mind, but it made him feel uncomfortable.

...

Each of the fitting rooms here was separate.

Gu Lichen and Hua Lifang were led by the staff to one of the VIP dressing rooms.

When Hua Lifang appeared in front of Gu Lichen wearing the same gown that Ling Yiran had just worn, Gu Lichen only glanced at her and said, "Not bad."

Hua Lifang also knew that she would not look as good in this gown as Ling Yiran.

Especially when she wore it after Ling Yiran had worn it. It just seemed like a crude imitation, but she could not even get another gown.

"Lichen, do you think I shouldn't have fought with Yiran over a gown?" Hua Lifang looked aggrieved. "I... I just wanted to wear a purple dress and make you happy because I remember you telling me when you were little that you like the color purple."

After a pause, Hua Lifang continued saying, "My marriage didn’t go well all these years. I couldn’t stop thinking about our childhood, thinking about how you said you would come to find me, thinking that maybe there was someone out there who could save me from that upsetting marriage... And here you are!"

Hua Lifang became more and more agitated as she spoke, reaching out to grab Gu Lichen's arm.

Gu Lichen looked down at the person in front of him and gently pulled his arm away. "Lifang, I'm nice to you because you saved my life, so if you need anything or want anything, I'll do it for you if I can… But that's all."

Hua Lifang's body stiffened, and her face paled slightly.

"You say that like you're old. You look very young to me," said Yi Jinli as he stood behind Ling Yiran and looked at her in the mirror.

"Speaking of which, you're younger than I am." Although they were the same age, she was born in July, and he was born in November. She was several months older than him.

"So? Shall I call you ‘Sis’?" Yi Jinli asked with a chuckle.

‘Sis’ was a nickname she had not heard for a long time, and it could not help but remind Ling Yiran that if she had known he was Yi Jinli, she would not have let him call her that!

Naturally, their relationship might not have developed to the stage they were currently at.

Once, she thought of him as a brother, but now... A blush could not help spreading across her face. Dressed in the silver gown, it made her look particularly attractive.

A few strands of hair fell from her cheeks. Ling Yiran lowered her head slightly, naturally raising her hand to tuck her hair behind her ear. She was unaware that when she lowered her head and raised her hand, it was like there was an invisible hand tugging gently at his heartstrings.
