As he spoke, he walked over to Ling Yiran and stared at her. "You once said you’ll not abandon me as long as I don’t leave you, didn't you? So whatever happens, you're not going to leave me as long as you live, right?"
Ling Yiran was stunned. What she said back then was still ringing in her ears.
Her hands touched her belly, which was already as big as a full-term pregnant woman's. She took a deep breath before saying, "Yes, I did say so."
With that, she turned to Gu Lichen and said, "Gu Lichen, you heard him. I... won't leave Jin."
When she uttered the word ‘Jin’, Yi Jinli's eyes suddenly sparkled as he stood next to her. An unstoppable flash of excitement flashed across his face.
'She’s calling me ‘Jin’ again. Does that mean she's willing to forgive me and let go of the past?'
Gu Lichen's expression changed slightly, but there was not much surprise. Perhaps it was what he was expecting.
He... just wanted to know if she would stay with Yi Jinli after learning the truth.
"Okay, got it. If... this is what you want," Gu Lichen said and left the consulting room with his men.
Yi Jinli also let the others leave the consulting room.
Suddenly, only Ling Yiran and Yi Jinli were left in the rather spacious consulting room.
Yi Jinli looked at Ling Yiran with shining eyes, appearing expectant and hopeful. "Yiran, are you sure you won't leave me?"
He stopped speaking. His dark peach blossom eyes stared at her. His delicate features and handsome face tugged at Ling Yiran's heart.
"I..."
She was about to speak, but he suddenly snapped, "Never mind!"
Before she could react, he hastily opened the consulting room door and ran out.
Ling Yiran was instantly alone in the consulting room.
