Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 210

Chapter 210: Chapter 210: Using Her to Take Everything Back

Red house.

The interior of the house was beautiful, yet for some reason, it was pervaded by an eerie feeling.

Accustomed to being served, Gong Yan had only left two maids to take care of Chen Sulan.

Lin Zhiyi was taken to an upstairs room.

When the door first opened, the room was pitch-black, and before she could even adjust, she was pushed to the ground.

Struggling to her feet to rush out, the door had been locked.

She felt afraid of the darkness that seemed like an endless abyss, and reaching out her hand, she turned on the light.

After clearly seeing the room’s layout, her face turned deadly pale as she froze in place.

Her mind hadn’t caught up yet, but her body had already reacted directly.

"Ugh!"

Lin Zhiyi rushed into the bathroom and began to violently vomit until there was nothing left to throw up; then, she dragged herself to the sink.

As she raised her eyes to the mirror, her own face slowly overlapped with a numb and pale face.

Staring at the mirror, it seemed as if a shadowy figure loomed behind her, scaring her into turning around immediately.

But there was only a white wall behind her.

She ran out of the bathroom in panic, the room’s suggestive decor once again made her physically uncomfortable.

The round bed had a mirror overhead.

A row of cabinets were also mirrored on the outside.

The shape of the lounge chair was odd; it was neither comfortable for sitting nor for lying down.

Even the bay window was covered in water cushions, one could imagine the rocking motion of a person on it, and the entire figure was perfectly reflected in the window.

Even in the bathroom, everything was intentional, the shape of the bathtub, and the inexplicably dangling rings.

Lin Zhiyi clutched her throbbing head and wrapped the blanket from the bed tightly around herself, huddled in a corner.

After an unknown amount of time, the door opened, and Gong Yan walked in holding a cup.

"Zhiyi, it’s too cold outside; I had the servants make ginger tea."

Lin Zhiyi looked up, utterly baffled by Gong Yan.

Sometimes kind, sometimes furious, sometimes gentle, sometimes violent.

She glanced at the steaming ginger tea and said coldly, "I don’t need it, I’m not cold."

Gong Yan set down the cup and looked down imperiously at Lin Zhiyi.

Her black hair cascaded down her back, highlighting her skin that was as smooth as snow, and her charming, spirited face with eyes that were slightly red-rimmed, and the bottoms were misted with a thin layer of tears.

A single glance could make a man fall.

He slowly crouched down, gently smoothing Lin Zhiyi’s hair: "Zhiyi, you’re truly beautiful."

For some reason, when Lin Zhiyi heard these words, she immediately felt a chill run down her spine and quickly shifted her body to avoid him.

But a flash of annoyance crossed his eyes, and he grabbed Lin Zhiyi’s hair and pulled her in front of him.

A somber layer fell over his handsome face: "Zhiyi, do you realize how sad I was when I sent you into his room?"

"Sad? Sad that you didn’t manage to scheme successfully? Unfortunately, even if I clung to Uncle, he wouldn’t care about me, let alone give up any interests for my sake!" Lin Zhiyi retorted.

"Is that so? Then why are you still alive? Do you know how many women who tried to scheme against Gong Chen disappeared? They all vanished without a trace; you’re the only one who ended up on the internet and still stands before everyone. Otherwise, why would Grandpa be so anxious about your existence?"

At his words, Lin Zhiyi froze.

No, it wasn’t like this in her previous life!

After marriage, Gong Chen never treated her kindly; he refused to let her and her daughter be involved in any Gong Family affairs, completely excluding her.

Before Lin Zhiyi could think further, Gong Yan suddenly kissed her.

She raised her hand to block it, struggling with all her might, kicking and beating.

Gong Yan was completely enraged, grabbing her head and forcefully smashing it against a cabinet.

With a click, a cabinet door popped open.

When Lin Zhiyi saw the tools inside, her body went cold and she couldn’t move.
