Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 218

Chapter 218: Chapter 218: What Can’t I See?

Li Huan looked at Lin Zhiyi with a somewhat guilty expression, opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say.

Lin Zhiyi, in an effort to relieve the awkwardness, took the initiative and said, "Doctor Li, I twisted my ankle. Could you check if the swelling can be reduced quickly? I have a very important press conference to attend tomorrow."

Upon hearing that Lin Zhiyi was still willing to trust him, Li Huan nodded vigorously, "Don’t worry, leave it to me."

While examining her, Li Huan babbled on with many cautions.

Finally, he looked at Lin Zhiyi with care and said, "Lin Zhiyi, I’m sorry."

Lin Zhiyi consoled him, "It’s not your fault, don’t think too much about it."

After getting her response, Li Huan didn’t make any more fuss and applied ice to Lin Zhiyi’s ankle before prescribing an ointment patch.

When Chen Jin went to get the medicine, Li Huan made tea for Gong Chen and Lin Zhiyi.

Li Huan reverted to his usual self and casually asked Gong Chen while pouring tea, "Has your sleep improved recently? Are you still dreaming about that little girl?"

Lin Zhiyi’s hand, which was about to lift the cup, paused, "What little girl?"

At that, Li Huan realized that Gong Chen had not told Lin Zhiyi about the dreams with the little girl and unconsciously looked towards Gong Chen.

Gong Chen continued to drink his tea nonchalantly, without any intention of stopping the conversation, signaling to Li Huan he understood Gong Chen’s intention.

He chuckled and said, "Lately you’ve been getting into accidents, and he keeps dreaming of a little girl who insists on saving you, even hinting at lots of details. And the thing is, this little girl looks remarkably like she could be you two’s child."

Clang.

Lin Zhiyi’s tea cup toppled onto the table, spilling the tea.

It’s Xingxing!

Just thinking of her daughter caused a pang in her heart.

But as soon as she felt the scrutinizing gaze at her side, she quickly bowed her head to tidy up, "Sorry, my hand slipped."

"Don’t you find it strange?" Gong Chen seemed calm sipping his tea, but his question cut to the heart.

Lin Zhiyi’s head was down, wiping the table, her mind whirring fast.

"I get it!" she suddenly looked up to explain, "I’ve heard the elderly say before, this is called a precognitive dream, it’s really just overthinking, ignoring some already known information, so that’s why this kind of dream happens."

Her heart was in her throat as she talked.

Around Gong Chen, she always felt she couldn’t keep anything hidden, yet the matter of being reborn, telling anyone would make them disbelieve.

"It’s not possible, I also..." had dreamed about that little girl.

"Indeed, dreams can’t be taken as facts."

Before Li Huan could finish speaking, Gong Chen interrupted with a cold voice.

They exchanged a glance, and Li Huan also nodded in agreement.

Lin Zhiyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Li Huan, "Doctor Li, what were you about to say?"

"I... I said I’ve had those kind of dreams too," Li Huan quickly changed the subject, half-jokingly adding, "Third Young Master, even your dreams project you two’s child, you’ve even decided on the child’s gender, aren’t you thinking a bit too much?"

"Pfft."

Lin Zhiyi almost sprayed out her tea.

An insightful gaze came from her side, as if trying to see right through her.

A few seconds later, Gong Chen set down his tea cup and said indifferently, "A daughter sounds nice."

Li Huan poured him a bit more tea, "Have some tea to clear your head, don’t just dream, focus on something real, strive for this year..."

Lin Zhiyi cut him off quickly, "Doctor Li, today’s the last day of the year, who could manage to have a child overnight?"

Li Huan clicked his tongue, "Look at that, you’ve denied the date but not the idea of having children."

Gong Chen nodded as if taking the matter seriously.

"..."

Lin Zhiyi then realized she’d been played by the two of them.

Just then, Chen Jin returned with the ointment.

Li Huan applied the ointment for her and stood up, "I’m going to make rounds in the wards, you two take your time drinking."

When Li Huan left, the office suddenly became quiet.

Lin Zhiyi felt so awkward she wanted to use the restroom, and her stomach was also feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

Too embarrassed to say it outright, she set her cup down, "I’m not drinking anymore, I should head back now."

Unexpectedly, Gong Chen put down his cup and stood up too.

"Let’s go, I’ll walk you back."

"No need, I’ve improved a lot already."

While speaking, Lin Zhiyi subconsciously tugged at her pants.

As soon as she had stood up, she felt a flooding sensation; she knew her period had started.

Gong Chen glanced at her, "I’ll call a nurse to bring a wheelchair and take you to the restroom."

"Okay."
