Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 381

Chapter 381: Chapter 381: Who is the Third Person?

Lin Zhiyi and Sang Li still decided to proceed with the original plan to get engaged.

As soon as the news broke, Liu He showed up with a safe box to see her.

At this moment, the housekeeping company had just finished tidying up her home.

She was doing a declutter, throwing away what she didn’t need and planning to pack the rest directly into her luggage.

To prevent any unforeseen complications, she and Sang Li decided to get engaged and immediately make an appearance in Hai City.

Let the Gong Family know she officially entered the Sang Family’s gate, and then the two of them would head abroad from Hai City.

This time, they might be gone for several years.

As Liu He walked in and saw the suitcase on the ground, she froze for a long time, blinking her eyes to hold back tears.

"So, so you’re really leaving me?" _{freeweɓnovel.cøm}

"Mom, it’s not like we’ll never see each other again. Haven’t you always wished I’d find a rich husband and marry quickly?" Lin Zhiyi replied with a smile.

Indeed, she hadn’t even told Liu He about her partnership with Sang Li.

According to Sang Li, the guest list for Gong Family’s Qingming banquet had already been finalized, and neither Gong Shiyan nor Liu He were on it.

However, Sang Li, being an outsider relative, was indeed on the list.

This showed that the old patriarch was firmly set on targeting the marriage between her and Sang Li.

She didn’t want Liu He to worry any further, so to this day, Liu He still believed she was genuinely marrying into the Sang Family to become Mrs. Sang.

Liu He pressed her fingertips to the corners of her eyes. "Do you even know me? I was just saying that for fun, I’d never truly let you marry so casually. At least Mr. Sang is a decent man."

Lin Zhiyi said nothing, merely nodding.

Despite her words, Liu He’s expression didn’t relax.

She worriedly asked, "Then... what about the child? Did you tell Mr. Sang? I might be vain, but this kind of deceitful act really can’t be done."

"Mom, what are you thinking? I’ve already told him. He agreed. The child will be born normally, but you’d better forget the existence of this child forever and never bring it up, or the child and I will be in danger, and it could even implicate Mr. Sang."

Lin Zhiyi understood Liu He too well: timid and afraid of trouble, but especially serious when it came to her matters.

After all, in her previous life, even though Liu He was terribly scared, she still stood up against the threats and oppressions of the Gong Family to prove that she hadn’t harmed Song Wanqiu and that child.

Unfortunately, in the end, Liu He also died because of her.

Thankfully, everything was past now.

As expected, Liu He immediately stopped asking. She was scared that knowing too much would make her unable to hide things.

As long as Sang Li was willing to accept, then that was good enough.

Liu He opened the safe box she had brought. "These are the jewelry Song Wanqiu and her daughter compensated me with last year. The Gong Family has no right to dispose of them. This is also the best I have to offer right now. You’ll need some jewelry to keep up appearances when you enter the Sang Family..."

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Zhiyi closed the safe box. Not only that, but she also took out a card and placed it on the safe box.

"Mom, I know you and Uncle haven’t been doing well. Keep this jewelry. After all, you’re still the Second Madam, so appearances matter when you go out. The money on the card includes what you gave me before. I also sold a house, kept half for tuition fees, and deposited the other half on the card. As for the other house, you and Uncle should keep it."

"You... what are you doing? The dowry I prepared for you is already insignificant to the Sang Family. If you don’t bring it with you, won’t you be disrespected by your in-laws? Besides, Mr. Sang is willing to accept you and the child, so these formalities are even more important." Liu He tried to refuse.

"Mom, I remember you saying Uncle was full of ambition when you first met him. I believe with his abilities, this money will be put to its best use."

"It doesn’t matter if he’s wealthy or not; I’ve always followed him. But the dowry—you must..."

"Mom, just think of it as me investing the dowry in Uncle. Besides, neither of us is cut out for business. What are we supposed to do, sit idle and waste this money?" Lin Zhiyi persuaded.

"True enough."
