"Do you know him well?" asked Qin Lianyi.
"Sort of. There's nothing I don't know about his family, career, life, and personality. Besides, I've been living at Yi Residence for a while," said Ling Yiran.

In her heart, Lianyi was already her family! She was someone she would spend her life repaying!
