Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 203

Chapter 203: Chapter 203: Uncle and Us Are Not the Same Kind of People

Lin Zhiyi watched the slowly approaching figure and instinctively took two steps back.

It was Gong Yan.

He had lost weight since she last saw him.

Liu He had mentioned that he was removed from his position at Gong Group, and even the shares left by his father had been taken back by Old Mr. Gong.

He could only take Chen Sulan back to the Chen Group, no, now the Chen Group had also been acquired by Gong Chen. _{freewebnøvel.coɱ}

At best, he was only one of the shareholders.

Actually, Lin Zhiyi didn’t understand why Old Mr. Gong was so cold-hearted towards him.

When she came back to her senses, she still nodded politely, "Third Young Master."

Gong Yan forced a bitter smile, "Are you still angry?"

Lin Zhiyi didn’t say a word.

How could she not be angry?

The person she had trusted for two lifetimes had been deceiving her all along.

Gong Yan looked at her, resigned, "I’ve come to apologize. Let’s have dinner together; we probably won’t have the chance after this."

Lin Zhiyi glanced at him suspiciously, "You..."

"My mother’s condition has worsened after a shock, and I plan to take her abroad for treatment. After that... I probably won’t come back much."

"When are you leaving?"

"Christmas," Gong Yan twitched the corners of his mouth.

The gears of fate began to turn once again.

Lin Zhiyi had wanted to change the mother and son’s fate but it turned out the same in the end.

She sighed lightly, "Okay, let’s have dinner then."

She also had a doubt.

In the previous life, why didn’t the things that happened in this life occur, and why were Gong Yan and Chen Sulan still sent out of the country?

Even until Chen Sulan’s death, Gong Yan couldn’t bring her back to where she belonged.

Previously, looking at Gong Chen’s attitude towards Gong Yan, it was clear that he turned a blind eye, not bothering to hold grudges against the dead.

Perhaps there were things she didn’t know about.

The two arrived at the restaurant Gong Yan had booked, which served all of Lin Zhiyi’s favorite dishes.

He laughed as he served her food as if everything had returned to the very beginning.

He was still the brother she greatly respected.

After the atmosphere lightened, Gong Yan poured tea for them both and then had her favorite desserts brought out.

"I’ve wanted to bring you here for a long time; this might be the last chance."

Lin Zhiyi looked at the desserts in front of her and shook her head slightly, "No, I’m full."

Gong Yan laughed softly, "You’re on guard, aren’t you? Afraid I might slip something in? That’s why you’ve only been eating what I eat."

"Third Young Master, I just want to live a peaceful life," Lin Zhiyi emphasized.

"That’s fair; I’m sorry. Let’s drink this cup, and I’ll take you home."

Gong Yan didn’t insist further and raised his glass to Lin Zhiyi.

Seeing that he drank as well, Lin Zhiyi finally felt at ease and took the teacup.

The teapot was glass; it would be impossible to tamper with.

At that moment, a commotion started in the restaurant.

Lin Zhiyi put down her teacup and looked in the direction of the disturbance, where the last person she wanted to see was walking in at a leisurely pace.

The restaurant manager led the way.

Gong Chen and President Yu were following him, engaging in lively conversation, President Yu occasionally covering her lips with a light laugh.

She had heard before that President Yu had always held a fondness for Gong Chen.

Although President Yu was a few years older, Lin Zhiyi had witnessed her capabilities and knew she was a generous and righteous person.

Lin Zhiyi truly admired such a woman from the bottom of her heart.

Sensing her gaze, Gong Yan turned to look for a moment.

Then he asked, "Should we go say hello?"

Lin Zhiyi shook her head and continued drinking her tea, "No need."
