Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 282

Chapter 282: Chapter 282: Sowing Discord

Yes.

Lin Zhiyi had recognized He Yao long ago, or rather, recognized the man he had been in her past life.

In that past life, He Yao was known as the most terrifying super-male Young Master among the wealthy elites.

He had been born with super-male syndrome.

The He Family, in order to cover up his condition, had always used money to smooth over the messes he made.

He had harmed many women; some were silenced with money, and those who couldn’t be bought off were crushed into ruin by the power and influence of the He Family.

It wasn’t until an anonymous tipster provided a complete chain of evidence that He Yao was caught in the act, about to commit another assault.

Some details of the incident were released in the news.

For example, how he had shackled the women.

So from the day she saw He Yao, Lin Zhiyi began to learn methods of self-defense.

But subsequent investigations were never disclosed.

Like who exactly He Yao had harmed.

And like his connection with Wen Qing.

Now, thinking back, those details that were never released must have been deliberately erased by Gong Chen.

Otherwise, how could Wen Qing have married her so-called mysterious husband and have settled abroad so freely?

Before, Lin Zhiyi had gone with the flow just to figure out the relationship between Wen Qing and the He Family.

Now she understood everything.

Just... what role did Gong Shiyan play in all this?

Lin Zhiyi was absorbed in thought when suddenly a sinister voice sounded from behind.

"President Wen was right, you really shouldn’t be underestimated. You let yourself be caught on purpose, didn’t you?"

He Yao, who had supposedly left, had returned at some point.

Startled, Lin Zhiyi dropped the light she had been holding, plunging the surroundings into darkness.

Relying on her memory from moments before, she hid behind the operating table.

But this was He Yao’s territory; how could she possibly be a match for him?

In the next second, the whole room was flooded with light.

Lin Zhiyi looked up to see a skeleton and couldn’t help but scream uncontrollably.

When she thought of running, she was caught by her hair by He Yao and pressed down on the operating table.

He Yao, with his super-male genes, was already larger in stature and much stronger than an average adult male, and effortlessly subdued Lin Zhiyi.

Lin Zhiyi was picked up and thrown onto the operating table, becoming instantly dizzy.

She quickly understood the reason for the four armrests added to the table.

They were to control the limbs of a person; the scratches on them were made by someone else struggling.

After being tied up, He Yao looked down at her from above.

"President Wen said, ’As long as you’re gone, Xiao Ran will be happy.’"

"I had wanted to keep you for a few days, at least until everyone outside knew we were married. Then, I could take action and dispose of you under any pretext. After all, as husband and wife, no one will be able to do much to me."

"But since you’ve discovered everything, I can’t be bothered to wait any longer."

As He Yao spoke, his face showed no emotion, as though he were merely playing a game.

He took off his suit, put on a waterproof raincoat, then began to prepare the tools one by one.

Hearing the clinking of those tools, Lin Zhiyi’s teeth began to chatter.

But she knew that being afraid was pointless now; she had to save herself.

Perhaps He Yao was too eager to finish her off or just too complacent, but one of her hands hadn’t been tightly bound.

Lin Zhiyi moved a bit, and the rope began to loosen, but it would take time.

So she began to stall for time.
