A slap resounded across the corridor. The impact was so harsh that Jing Tian ended up falling on the ground. Jing Lihua’s expressions were terrifying. Years of resentment worked up. She bent on her knees and roughly grabbed Jing Tian’s hair. "I don’t care what you are up to. I don’t care if you are Su Lanfen’s new dog or not. But let me tell you, if you ever cross me again that will be your end." Jing Tian was horrified. She had expected a response from Jing Lihua but not such a violent…-

Jing Lihua looked away abashed at what had she just said. She had been so lost in the moment that she didn’t realize what had slipped her tongue. She coughed and quickly said. "I’m still married. Don’t get your hopes up." Li Zhiqiang didn’t say anything but Jing Lihua could feel his happiness lingering in the air. She went back to staring into the city not knowing what to say. She mentally slapped herself and decided not to let herself lose again. "The city looks even better from the terrace…

The stage was very far from where Jing Lihua was standing so she couldn’t get a nice view. Besides the angle only made her see his side profile. "Why is he here only now?" "The previous display was only a warm-up. The real show will start now. The best selling fashion designer will put their items. So it is only right that he appears now." Zhao Liying looked nervy. "I’ll leave now. Third turn’s mine" Now that the matter with the Zhao Liying was resolved, Jing Lihua didn’t feel like…

Just as the glass was about to touch her lips, it slipped from Zhao Liying hands, hit the floor and smashed into pieces. Luckily the place where they were standing, was not crowded and the music was still on in the background so no one noticed. "I’m so sorry" Zhao Liying stepped back with wide eyes. Yang Mi looked like she was about to cry. She had used up all the drug given by Su Lanfen manager and put it on that glass. With a face full of helplessness and despair, she walked away without even…

In a distance, Jing Lihua spotted Su Liwei. He turned once he saw Jing Lihua. Jing Lihua paused for a second before walking directly towards him without any reluctance. If it was the Jing Lihua of past, she would have been fl.u.s.tered and tried to avoid him. But this Jing Lihua wasn’t the one before him. And for some strange reason as time passed, Su Liwei was losing his effect on her. "Mr. Su I’ve been expecting you." She had a calm smile and wore very formal expressions. Like she was not…

Probably because Jing Lihua had realized that he was not just a mere doctor, but someone with a strong background, she was tolerant towards him. "Mr. Li, it’s late, don’t you think you should leave?" "I appreciate the hotpot and your concern, but I’m a married woman and having a man at my place so late at night won’t be appropriate." "I’ll see you tomorrow." Li Zhiqiang strode out. Jing Lihua sighed and slouched down on the couches. She contemplated the methods to get rid of that crazy…

In the silence that followed, Zhao Liying froze. Jing Lihua froze. Inside the bedroom, Li Zhiqiang froze. "Is there anyone..." Zhao Liying glanced at the bedroom’s closed door, suspicious. "Zhao Liying you need to sleep. See how late it is? Tomorrow is a big day for you!. I’ll walk you to your bedroom." Jing Lihua rushed to take Zhao Liying out of her room. But Zhao Liying evaded her. "Who is inside your bedroom at this hour?" "My bedroom?" Jing Lihua frowned and glanced back at the…

Jing Lihua went straight to her room and closed the door. Memories rushed to her mind. "No. No. No..." She placed her hands over her ears and shook her head vehemently. Ever since she had lost her everything in her last life, she had sworn to never let herself fall for those sorts of feelings. But what she had felt with Li Zhiqiang... even if they didn’t do anything, was stronger than her experience with Su Liwei. She pushed back those memories that wanted to emerge into the depths of her mind.…

Standing at the distance was the same crazy doctor that Jing Lihua had evaded half an hour ago. Jing Lihua stared at him in shock. He merely smiled at her. Without saying anything, he walked to a room adjacent to Jing Lihua’s room. He swiped a card and the door opened. He walked in keeping the door open. Jing Lihua understood what happened. But countless questions bubbled in her mind. How did he manage to arrive here before her? The hotel was one of the most expensive ones in Hong Kong and required…

Jing Lihua called Mei Xiu and gave her an address to pick her up. In just twenty minutes, Mei Xiu arrived. "President." Mei Xiu rushed to her side after getting out of her car. "Where had you gone to? Why did you not pick up your phone? We’ve all been worried..." "Did you tell my grandfather?" "...No" "Good." Jing Lihua’s tense expressions eased. "It’s a long story. I’ll tell you everything on our way back to the apartment." Meanwhile, Wang Yi walked out. For once, his eyes met Li…
