While still on the knees, Wu Ying felt a wave of unbridling anger roiling up in her chest. While she was begging to Li Zhiqiang fro forgiveness and kneeling in front of him, she didn't kneel in front of that hick. When she had first arrived in Hong Kong, the woman had no sense how to even properly dress herself up, neither she had some appropriate skills in communication. Ever since the first meeting, Wu Ying had thought she was just some country bumpkin. Wu Ying been disgusted with her and refused to…-

"Wu Xiuqin tell them I didn't say anything of this sort. What are you waiting for?" Wu Ying felt anxious when Wu Xiuqin didn't say anything for a long time. "The thing she said is so loathsome. I would never imagine saying something like that. I couldn't imagine the character of the woman President Li fancied would be such as to use such underhand lies. Jing Lihua if you do not care for your reputation at least show some reserve for resident Li's sake!" Afterall Wu Ying thought Li Zhiqiang was a man of…

Jing Lihua of the past had been too young and naive. Someone whose people loved to take advantage of. Jing Lihua of the present was a shrewd woman. She could judge a person by a single glance. And in her view, Wu Xiuqin wasn't a good person. A hypocrite to be right. Jing Lihua had already paid for what she had owed her by not taking revenge on Wu Junjie for separating them. As for what had happened to Wu Xiuqin's hands, it was only her brother to blame for it. That day Wu Xiuqin was supposed to be…

"I can't return your feelings. I hope you forget about it." Wu Xiuqin still recalled Li Zhiqiang's words. His words have cut through her heart. She loved him dearly and all he did was to say 'I hope you forget about it'. As if it was that simple. No, she wouldn't give up on him. Since childhood, Wu Xiuqin used to get everything she desired. She had everything she had ever hoped for. She wasn't used to rejection. And Li Zhiqiang was someone she had desired the most. How could she give up on her? She…

"It is just who she is. Her pureness, her kindness, her those sharp green eyes, her cherry red lips, her sweet innocent smiles. Everything about it. I love everything her. There is not a single thing in her that I can find fault with. It's just I know she was made for me." Hearing something about someone else from the man whom you love couldn't be a happy experience. But Li Zhiqiang had to tell her. He wanted her to give up. He didn't want her to do something that might hurt Jing Lihua. In the end, the…

That day it was not his name she had called for. The words that escaped her lips shattered his heart. "Su Liwei..." Weeks of waiting and it was not his name but Su Liwei that she remembered. Li Zhiqiang knew it was not her fault. He knew that if there was someone who should be blamed for this was only him. His affection for her attracted the ire of his enemies. But the fact couldn't do anything to alleviate the pain in his heart. It only made the suffocation worse. Li Zhiqiang's heart was in…

Li Zhiqiang still remembered what had happened that night. A day before that night, he had taken her to the lake where his grandfather used to take him when he was a child. The place occupied a special place in his heart. And he wanted to associate it with the most treasured memories of his life. He had decided to propose to her that night. Under the beautiful fireworks and serene enchantment of starless sky, he had gone down on his knees and presented her with the ring. Jing Lihua was flushed,…

"How can you just barge into this room like this? This is a private room." Wu Ying was vexed when they were interrupted. "Do you want to—" Wu Ying was startled when she looked at the woman's face. Noticing Wu Ying's expressions, Wu Xiuqin frowned and turned back to look at the intruder. A long silence followed in which no one of them dared to speak. Wu Ying rose in shock. "How?—" It took a long time for them to recognize Jing Lihua. But her dark green eyes couldn't be mistaken. It was a feature that…

"President Jing, are we not headed back to the hotel?" Wang Yi glanced through the front mirror at her reflection. Jing Lihua was looking outside with a persistent small smile. Wang Yi had observed that whenever they traveled by car, she would glance outside the whole time absorbed into herself. "I insist again. We must get back to President Li as soon as possible. They might be after us." "Wang Yi, where do you think they will expect us to go after they received the news that their ambush failed." Jing…

Jing Lihua's movements were swift. She rose, her dark green eyes flashed with focus and determination. The guns in her hands were light and weightless. The way she handled them, it was as if she was made for them. It was as if she had years of practice. And it was true too. In her last life, dangers lurked from every corner. It was a depressing truth that nevertheless it was the truth-the experience of the past life taught her some valuable skills. The shots fired one after another. Her fingers were…
