Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 186

Chapter 186: Chapter 186: You Are Only Worth This Much

Hearing the news about Song Wanqiu’s pregnancy, Lin Zhiyi’s bowl smashed onto the table, splattering hot soup all over her.

People turned at the sound and looked at her with strange, disdainful eyes.

After all, the last time so many people had gathered together, it had been to condemn her for drugging someone and climbing into bed.

Lin Zhiyi quickly stood up and reached for a paper towel to wipe off the mess: "Sorry."

Old Mr. Gong glanced at her and said with displeasure, "How can you see people when you’re covered like that?" _{freeweɓnovel.cøm}

His words implied she could leave.

Lin Zhiyi’s hand paused as she wiped, understanding the old man’s intention for insisting she join this meal.

It was all about getting rid of the bad luck, which meant getting rid of her.

She bowed her head and nodded, "Okay. Enjoy your meal."

She picked up her backpack and walked out of the dining room, feeling the gazes on her like knives slicing her apart.

Not long after, Liu He followed her.

"Zhiyi, I’m sorry, I didn’t know the old man would..."

"Forget it, you saw the old man’s attitude too. Song Wanqiu is pregnant and will move in, so I won’t come here anymore. If you want to see me, we can meet outside."

Lin Zhiyi didn’t want her to worry, so she reassured her with a few words.

Liu He pursed her lips, "More than three years without getting pregnant, how did it happen so quickly after just one trip?"

Lin Zhiyi replied coldly, "Getting pregnant isn’t something one can do alone."

Liu He’s face stiffened and she said no more.

She grabbed Lin Zhiyi’s hand and led her towards the back yard.

"I bought you clothes for the change of seasons. You are a designer now, after all; don’t always wear out-of-season clothes."

"I’m still an intern, earning just a few thousand a month. I don’t need so many clothes."

"Mom bought them for you," Liu He insisted, pulling her along.

After changing into a new outfit at Liu He’s place, Lin Zhiyi left with her things.

As she passed through the corridor, someone called out to her from behind.

"Zhiyi."

Song Wanqiu was dressed in a white coat embroidered with Suzhou patterns, standing under the setting sun, graceful and delicate.

A stark contrast to the woman who had worn provocative lingerie in the hotel.

Lin Zhiyi looked at the approaching figure and instinctively took a step back, "What do you want?"

Song Wanqiu stopped and glanced at Lin Zhiyi’s new clothes.

"New clothes? They really suit you," she sighed with her hand covering her lips, "Sadly, now I can only wear loose clothes. I wonder if there are any nice maternity outfits."

Lin Zhiyi looked at her through cold eyes, unimpressed by her act: "I would have thought you’re experienced in this area."

Song Wanqiu’s smile stiffened, a flash of ruthlessness crossing her eyes, "What do you mean?"

Lin Zhiyi replied calmly, "Dressing up, of course. What else did you think I was talking about?"

Her gaze fell on Song Wanqiu’s stomach.

Just then, Lin Zhiyi had done some research online.

There were not a few cases of women getting pregnant immediately after a miscarriage, but it was dangerous.

Song Wanqiu was really risking it all.

Since Gong Chen could even accept his treacherous Song Wanqiu, what more could she say?

She could only wish them well.

Song Wanqiu caressed her stomach, and when she looked up again, her eyes held nothing but scorn.

"Zhiyi, it must be hard to end up with nothing in the end, right? But what can you do when Third Young Master loves me? Don’t worry, though, we won’t let you down."

Let her down?

Lin Zhiyi looked puzzled at Song Wanqiu.

Song Wanqiu slowly pulled a check from her bag and handed it to Lin Zhiyi.

"You’ve been doing hard work serving Third Young Master. This is for the past services, and for the rest, I’ll pay you regularly from now on."

Lin Zhiyi glanced at the amount on the check, two million.
