Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 368

Chapter 368: Chapter 368: You Don’t Understand Her

Sang Li noticed Lin Zhiyi’s emotional fluctuations, with a sidelong glance as Sister Zhou happened to come out with water.

"Then you may stay at Miss Zhou’s house for now; the bodyguards will remain here to protect you."

"Mm," Lin Zhiyi sighed with relief.

Sister Zhou handed the water to Lin Zhiyi, promising, "Mr. Sang, rest assured, I will take good care of Zhiyi."

"Thank you for the trouble," Sang Li answered gentlemanly.

After he finished speaking, he received a text message from Zhou Zhao.

He glanced at the message, and casually said, "Zhiyi, you get some rest first; I have some matters to attend to."

Lin Zhiyi hummed in acknowledgment.

After sending off Sang Li, Sister Zhou took Lin Zhiyi back to her home.

A few minutes later, the bodyguard knocked on the door.

"Miss Lin, if you need anything, just call us. The cleaning crew will come by later; it may be a bit noisy."

"Thank you."

Lin Zhiyi closed the door, and as she turned around, she saw Sister Zhou’s eyes sparkling.

"Wow, are all bodyguards this handsome?"

"Maybe."

Lin Zhiyi had been to Sister Zhou’s home many times, so she was not constrained and slumped directly onto the couch.

Sister Zhou poured her a glass of juice, "What happened?"

Lin Zhiyi drank half the glass of juice in one go; the sour and sweet taste suppressed the bitterness in her mouth.

She omitted some details and roughly explained the situation.

Sister Zhou was shocked, "Your mom was set up by her best friends."

"It seems so. But the auntie who turned herself in has cancer and is close to death. If she really dies, there will be a dead testimony. The other auntie invested everything for her son; she would never miss any chance to get her money back."

They had truly become sworn enemies.

Sister Zhou sighed slightly, "I don’t feel sorry for them at all; instead, it’s their children who are truly unlucky, especially the sister who sold everything just for her son. He’s still in Cheng Bei High School. Now the sky has fallen for him. Do you think such a mother will continue to provide for her daughter? I fear the daughter will also become her brother’s ’blood bag’."

Sister Zhou came to Jing City alone, not because she had great ambitions but because she had no choice.

She also has a young brother.

Their parents gave almost everything to him, even demanding that she do the same.

This year, with excellent performance, Sister Zhou received a substantial bonus and finally bought the designer cashmere coat she had been coveting for two years.

About thirty thousand.

But after the new year, she returned to Jing City wearing only a thin down jacket.

It turned out that her mother hid the newly bought cashmere coat, criticizing her for wasting money, saying it would be better to save the money for her brother to buy a house and get married in the future.

In fact, Sister Zhou’s family was quite well off; thirty thousand wasn’t too much for them.

It’s just that the parents simply didn’t think she deserved a coat worth thirty thousand.

Sister Zhou spoke about it without much emotion, as though she was accustomed to it.

She didn’t wear the coat home just to show off but largely hoped to get a proper look from her parents.

Lin Zhiyi was about to comfort Sister Zhou when Sister Zhou’s words suddenly hit her.

"Sister Zhou, what did you just say?"

"I said the children are pitiable."

"Who is pitiable?" Lin Zhiyi wanted to confirm again.

"Aunt Yang’s daughter, obviously your aunt favors sons over daughters," Sister Zhou surmised.

"In that case, do you think she might know something?"

"She must know, girls in puberty are very sensitive; it’s impossible for her to have no idea."

Right, that was it.

Lin Zhiyi immediately stood up, "I have to step out."

...

Before calling a cab, Lin Zhiyi made a call to Li Huan.

"You’re looking for me after sending me flying with eighteen punches?" Li Huan joked.
