Chapter 24 -24: Cat Rubs

The tea was properly brewed, and Lin Zhiyi carried it to the living room.

It was rare to have so many people together in such harmonious spirits today, even Old Mr. Gong’s stern face broke into a few more smiles.

After distributing the tea, Lin Zhiyi stood behind Liu He and Gong Shiyan, continuing to be the dispensable person.

At this moment, Gong Chen entered, the water stains still on his collar.

Chen Sulan exclaimed, “Lao San, you usually love cleanliness, why is your shirt dirty?”

Gong Chen sat down, picked up the teacup, glanced at Lin Zhiyi, and indifferently said, “A cat rubbed against me.”

Chen Sulan took a sip of tea and smiled, “That cat is quite interesting, did it hit your mouth?”

Gong Chen blew on the tea and responded lightly.

“Yes. It was quite strong.”

Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi immediately lowered her head, the heat flushing her face in waves.

After some idle chatter, Old Mr. Gong decided to take a nap, and everyone began to get up and prepare to leave.

“Gong Chen, accompany me back to the yard.”

“Hmm.”

Gong Chen got up and walked alongside Old Mr. Gong.

Lin Zhiyi, who kept her head down, always felt a seemingly intangible gaze sweeping over her.

But she didn’t look up, pretending as if nothing had happened.

However, this two-second glance was caught by Song Wanqiu.

Song Wanqiu clenched the fruit fork in her hand yet didn’t dare let the Gong Family see anything amiss.

She still maintained a gentle smile, “Then let’s sit down and chat some more.”

In the past, people would have kept her company, seeing that she was Gong Chen’s fiancée.

However, today, after what happened at the press conference, most people understood that Song Wanqiu was not as simple as she seemed on the surface, so everyone was in a wait-and-see mode.

After all, as long as Song Wanqiu didn’t officially become a part of the Gong Family, she was not really one of them.

Several people got up and left under various pretexts.

Song Wanqiu, unable to save face, stood up and said she would take a walk in the yard before leaving.
