The Domineering Boss is Addicted to the Convict novel Chapter 1322

She gently scooped up a spoonful of fruit soup as she spoke. "Just like the fruits in this soup. Some fruits are sour, while some are sweet. Do you plan to be upset about it every birthday? Besides, are you going to be miserable on my birthday every year?" she quipped.

"I'm sorry. I should never have broken up with you!" muttered Yi Jinli.

"Then we'll take this as a warning and never talk about breaking up again, okay?" she said with a faint smile.

He was stunned. His dark peach blossom eyes stared at her closely. After quite some time, he finally said hoarsely, "Then it's settled. No more mentions of breaking up."

"Alright. If you can't think of a present, I'll prepare it myself. You mustn't dislike it," Ling Yiran said and lowered her head to drink the fruit soup in front of her.

Yi Jinli looked at Ling Yiran, and a touch of pain flashed across his eyes.

'Is it... really settled? Will we never talk about breaking up again?

'Does she know that my greatest fear is that one day she’ll choose to leave me?

'Does she know how much I wish she can keep her promise, no matter what happens?'

...

Ling Yiran was a little worried about Yi Jinli's birthday present. After all, he had everything. Besides, she had given him things like a scarf and gloves before. She could not think of anything else that was meaningful.

Ling Yiran looked over and saw Third Aunt crying in front of Gu Lichen not far away, apparently begging Gu Lichen to let Hua Lifang go.

However, Gu Lichen's face was cold, and he had no intention of paying them any attention.

Seeing this, Third Aunt threatened to kneel.

Gu Lichen said coldly, "I won't drop the case even if you kneel and grovel to me. The judge will give the sentence however he wants. Even if she’s sentenced to life imprisonment, she deserves it! Since she dared to do such a thing in the first place, she must be prepared to suffer the consequences!"

"But... But how could Lifang have known that the consequences would be so serious? She doesn't know much. She thought she was just impersonating her cousin. It's no... No big deal..." Third Aunt quickly tried to justify the matter.
