Chapter 527

Ling Yiran wondered what kind of person would have made Sis Zhuo pregnant out of wedlock for her to have the baby. If a woman was willing to have a child out of wedlock, the woman most probably loved the man. Otherwise, she would have just aborted the child. "How... How do you know?" asked Ling Yiran in surprise. Yi Jinli smiled, raised his hand, and gently pushed a strand of hair that was on her cheek behind her ear. "You don't expect me to be indifferent to your workplace, do you? Since you chose to work there, naturally, I had it checked out." Ling Yiran could not help but gulp down the saliva stuck in her throat and stare at Yi Jinli. She had no idea that he would go to such lengths. Her silence made Yi Jinli frown a little. Gradually, his eyes became stained with gloominess. "You don't like it? Do you feel like you're being watched?" Ling Yiran shook her head. "No, I know you're afraid that something might happen to me." He looked at her in amazement. She knew! The gloom in his eyes faded away and only joy was left in his bright, amorous eyes. "By the way, What kind of person is… uh, Lil Yan's father? " asked Ling Yiran. "It's Ye Wenming," answered Yi Jinli. Ling Yiran was taken aback once again. Ling Yiran had heard of a Ye Wenming but... Was the Ye Wenming Yi Jinli was talking about the Ye Wenming she had in mind? "It looks like you know Ye Wenming," said Yi Jinli. "Is it Ye Wenming from the Ye Group?" asked Ling Yiran. "Yep, it's him," answered Yi Jinli. Ling Yiran was silent. She knew Ye Wenming from when she was still a lawyer. She had heard a senior in the law firm mention a case in which Ye Wenming, though not the plaintiff, was one of the key witnesses. His testimony eventually led to the defendant being imprisoned. The defendant... Ling Yiran felt a sudden chill shoot down her back. The defendant's name vaguely flashed across her mind. She recalled hearing the surname "Zhuo". Sis Zhuo... Could it be that coincidental? Could Ye Wenming have testified against Sis Zhuo? The very thought of the possibility left Ling Yiran feeling anxious. Biting her lip, Ling Yiran looked at Yi Jinli and asked, "Then... do you know if Ye Wenming ever testified..." Before she could finish, Yi Jinli interjected and said, "Zhuo Qianyun was sentenced to three years and six months in prison due to Ye Wenming's testimony." Ling Yiran felt a sudden pang in her heart. Sis Zhuo had been sentenced to prison because of Ye Wenming, but she still gave birth to Ye Wenming's child. Come to think of it, it was kind of ironic. "Then, you must know of the case that caused Zhuo Qianyun to be sentenced to prison," said Yi Jinli. It was a little surprising that Ling Yiran knew Ye Wenming had testified against Zhuo Qianyun. Nevertheless, Yi Jinli found it understandable as she was once a lawyer. Not to mention, the case that took place between Ye Wenming and Zhuo Qianyun was quite sensational back then; it had also taken place before her accident.
