Yi Jinli's fingers clutched Gu Lichen's neck as if he was about to break his neck.
Ye Chongwei quickly put down the glass in his hand and grabbed Yi Jinli's hand, trying to pull it away from Gu Lichen’s neck. "Jinli, what are you doing? Lichen was just asking. You… You mustn't act on impulse..."
Ye Chongwei was scared to death, but Gu Lichen, who was being grabbed by the neck, showed no fear on his face. He asked, "Is it... because of me?"
However, the moment he uttered the words, the fingers around his neck tightened so hard that Gu Lichen started choking as his face turned red.
Ye Chongwei got nervous. "Jinli, let go! Let go! Are you really going to strangle Lichen?"
'Gosh. What the hell is going on? If something happens to these two big shots when they're at my place, my life will probably be over!'
Ye Chongwei tried his best to pull Yi Jinli's hand away.
'Is it.. because of Gu Lichen?' Yi Jinli's eyes stared at the person in front of him.
No, rather than Gu Lichen, it was because he did not want to be betrayed someday. He did not want to be on tenterhooks because Yiran had Gu Lichen in her heart!
He did not want to repeat his father's mistakes and have someone else control his life. The only person in charge of his destiny was himself!
Yi Jinli's fingers loosened. Gu Lichen coughed twice before finally breathing again.
Looking at Zhuo Qianyun who was lying in the hospital bed, Ling Yiran was completely shocked when she learned the reason Zhuo Qianyun was injured. She did not expect that so much had happened in just a few days.
"What if you were seriously injured? What if..." Ling Yiran dare not think about the rest.
"Yes, I was reckless. However, I couldn’t think of any other way." Zhuo Qianyun smiled wryly. "I was afraid that he’d really force me to give him a child, then my child would have to call the woman who hurt me 'Mommy'."
Ling Yiran had no idea how desperate Zhuo Qianyun was to do such a dangerous move.
Ye Wenming did more harm to Zhuo Qianyun than she had imagined. Besides, Zhuo Qianyun was probably so resolute because she did not want to have any relationship with Ye Wenming at all.
