Ling Yichen pulled Shi Niannian into a room. After entering, Ling Yichen ripped off his tie, still looking quite upset.
Shi Niannian sat on the sofa wiping her tears. Just as Ling Yichen was about to lose his temper, he heard Shi Niannian's sobbing. He stood in front of her, looking down at the top of her head, and lifted her chin with his hand, "Why are you crying?"
Shi Niannian's eyes were red, "Are you only interested in my looks, not me as a person?"
Ling Yichen dabbed away a tear from the corner of Shi Niannian's eye, realizing that she was upset by what those two women had said.
Ling Yichen recalled every moment he had shared with Shi Niannian from the beginning until now. At first, he was indeed hooked by her body.
He was 27 that year and had only ever dated Song Mingyue in college. Song Mingyue had pursued him for three years in high school, and with other classmates egging them on, he had accepted her.
