Chapter 16 -16: Confronting Gong Chen

Liu He rushed to the police station and turned pale when she saw Lin Zhiyi’s hand.

“What happened? You just got out of the hospital, how did something happen again? You’re a designer, your hands are important!”

Liu He understood, couldn’t Gong Chen understand?

Yet, he had kicked the man’s blade toward her.

Since that was the case, let the chaos continue.

Lin Zhiyi adjusted her hair and said, “I’m fine. Mom, let me get straight to the point. Have you found out what I asked you to inquire about?”

Liu He held Lin Zhiyi’s hand, her tears falling in heartache, only recovering her composure after a long while.

“I asked, I asked, look.”

Liu He took out her phone and showed the content to Lin Zhiyi alone.

After reading, Lin Zhiyi’s mood somewhat lightened: “Just as expected.”

Liu He pursed her lips and said, “Zhiyi, what do we do now? Zhao Cheng’s issue has just ended, and now you’re in trouble again. Given the old man’s character, he will definitely expel you.”

“I’m afraid it’s not as simple as just being expelled.”

They looked into each other’s eyes, both fully aware of the situation.

The old man knew about what happened that night between Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen; he had worked hard to raise Gong Chen and would not let this incident become a stain in Gong Chen’s life.

The old man was merely waiting for an opportunity to get rid of her.

Zhao Cheng, Song Wanqiu…

She was like an ant in these people’s hands, easily crushed at any moment.

Lin Zhiyi closed her eyes, feeling a burning pain spreading over her wound like a fire scorching her flesh.

Liu He held her hand tightly, her voice lowered in fear, “Zhiyi, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have pressured you into going on that blind date, then you wouldn’t have gotten involved in these issues.” frёeωebɳovel.com

Lin Zhiyi patted her hand in response, “Mom, trust me.”

Though Liu He was timid and fragile, her love for Lin Zhiyi was genuine.

Even pushing her into marriage and blind dates was out of fear that the Gong Family would latch onto her and Gong Chen’s affair.

Liu He took a deep breath and said, “Zhiyi, when I arrived, I asked around, and the man who broke into Song Wanqiu’s house insists you directed him to do it. Now Song Wanqiu also wants to hold you accountable, and with Lao San backing her, what will you do?”

“Mom, get me out on bail first.” Lin Zhiyi felt very uncomfortable here.

“Okay, just wait.”

Liu He stood up and walked out.

But quickly, she pushed the door back open with a strange expression.

Lin Zhiyi asked, “Mom…”

Before she could finish, a tall figure appeared behind Liu He.

Gong Chen.

Liu He dared not move, helplessly saying, “The police station won’t allow bail.”

It wasn’t the police station; it was Gong Chen.

Lin Zhiyi gave Liu He a look and said softly, “Mom, you should go back first.”

Liu He hesitated, eventually nodding and leaving.

Gong Chen walked in, backlit, his strides outlining his tall, cold figure.

Before he was fully seated, the coldness had already spread from the corner of his eyes.

He scoffed, “You shouldn’t have touched her.”

This remark sounded all too familiar to Lin Zhiyi; in her previous life, whenever something happened involving Song Wanqiu and their son, Gong Chen would say these words to her.

No matter how she explained, it always led to a cruel ending.

Then he would watch her step by step walking towards death.

So now, she couldn’t be bothered to explain.

“So, what now? Uncle, are you here to mediate, to make me and Song Wanqiu settle like with Zhao Cheng?”

Perhaps not expecting Lin Zhiyi to ask this.
