Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 243

Chapter 243: Chapter 243: Fight Until They Admit Their Mistake

Lin Zhiyi stood frozen, not expecting that despite being so cautious, she had still been set up.

Liu He seemed to have sensed something as well and immediately stepped in front of Lin Zhiyi.

"It’s not Zhiyi, she doesn’t know anything."

Old Mr. Gong narrowed his eyes and said displeasedly, "Then it’s you, after all, the money was transferred to your account."

Liu He was speechless, only able to shed tears.

Lin Zhiyi lifted her gaze to meet the eyes of Old Mr. Gong.

The shrewd and stern eyes allowed no deceit, and they barely concealed the loathing within them.

Lin Zhiyi pressed her lips tightly, her gaze shifted, and she looked expressionless at Gong Chen.

There’s a cold glint in his eyes, and he calmly sipped his tea.

"Do you need me to tell you what to say?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhiyi gently inhaled, her lips trembled, and as she tried to speak, the flood of resentment choked her.

*It felt like a rope, the more she wanted to escape, the tighter it tightened.*

*The more Gong Chen refused to let her go, the less Old Mr. Gong was willing to spare her.*

She coldly looked at everyone, "It wasn’t me or my mom."

"Still daring to be stubborn!"

Old Mr. Gong was very displeased with her answer, wanting Lin Zhiyi to kneel down and beg like a dog.

Then take her eyesore of a mom and roll out of the Gong Family.

With that said, Old Mr. Gong splashed her with a cup of hot tea.

She didn’t dodge, instead slowly approached, smirked coolly at Old Mr. Gong, and pulled a napkin to wipe off the tea.

"First of all, the bracelet design was custom-made, only you, Uncle, and Miss Sang knew ahead of time. My mom and I only found out upon delivery."

"If it were a few pieces, you could say it was me who swapped them, but dozens, including labor, couldn’t possibly be done in just a few days."

"It seems, besides you three, no one else could have done it."

Old Mr. Gong was momentarily stunned, seemingly not expecting Lin Zhiyi to retort. _{frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓}

But so what?

Lin Zhiyi was still too naive, *was this situation really about evidence?*

*Even if the police came, the three million, Liu He couldn’t explain it clearly.*

*In the face of everyone’s testimony, what could Lin Zhiyi’s three sentences mean?*

Old Mr. Gong ignored her questioning and directly declared, "The evidence is conclusive. Someone, go gather Liu He’s things from the yard, throw them out. There’s no room for thieves in this house!"

As he spoke, he kept his eyes fixed on Lin Zhiyi.

As if threatening, as if forcing.

Lin Zhiyi, however, did not do as he wished and step forward to take the blame for Liu He.

No, it’s not called taking the blame.

It’s called admitting guilt.

This was Old Mr. Gong’s intention, either kill two birds with one stone or sacrifice Lin Zhiyi.

Whichever outcome, it was what he wanted to see.

But as time slowly passed, Lin Zhiyi still didn’t speak.

This time, even Liu He stood firm once; although she was crying, she gritted her teeth and didn’t admit it.

At this moment, Wen Qing clicked her tongue twice.

"I thought the Gong Family rules were strict, didn’t expect people like this could appear, disgracing the family."

"Wen Qing, enough!" Gong Shiyan said angrily.

"Does the Second Young Master feel pained? How about you compensate for this money?" Wen Qing raised a brow.

Gong Shiyan didn’t fall for it and firmly said, "Xiao He wouldn’t do such a thing. If she leaves, I’ll leave with her, and I will definitely investigate the matter thoroughly."

Wen Qing’s face tightened, seemingly dissatisfied, "Old Mr. Gong, I asked for fairness for our Xiao Ran, yet it turned out I’m the bad guy."

"Aunt, don’t say any more, this matter does need to be investigated." Sang Ran said with a furrowed brow, quickly interrupting.

"No way. If they bully you now, who knows what will happen in the future." Wen Qing said harshly.

If she said this, and the Gong Family still didn’t react, it would truly mean they were bullying Sang Ran.
