Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 400

Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Even Using Children as Pawns

Lin Zhiyi hugged Xingxing again, then put her down and resumed packing her luggage.

As she prepared to leave, she thought of the car accident at the kindergarten.

She knew most of the children involved.

So she quickly transferred fifty thousand yuan to the teacher via her phone, with a note saying it was for the injured children.

But shortly after, the teacher returned the money.

"Xingxing’s mother, a Mr. Gong has already fully covered the medical expenses for the injured."

Mr. Gong?

Gong Chen.

Wait, why was Gong Chen at the hospital?

Could it be that he specifically went to donate money for the children?

Just as she was pondering, the teacher sent another message.

"The principal mentioned that this Mr. Gong has been part of a blood donation group for a long time. It seems he couldn’t donate blood due to some condition, so he donated money instead. There are indeed good people like him. Thank you, Xingxing’s mother. By the way, how is Xingxing doing now?"

"She’s fine. By the way, I’d like to request a week off for Xingxing."

"Of course. Xingxing’s mother, please keep an eye on her condition and let us know if there are any issues. The principal is currently arranging for a children’s psychologist from the hospital to help stabilize the students’ emotions."

"Alright."

Lin Zhiyi felt relieved that the kindergarten was so attentive to the children’s mental health, but she wasn’t planning to return once she left.

Once she found a stable city, she would notify the school to process Xingxing’s withdrawal.

As she shut off her phone, she couldn’t help but glance again at the teacher’s earlier words.

Gong Chen underwent annual checkups from Li Huan, maintained a balanced diet, and exercised regularly.

How could he possibly not meet the requirements for blood donation?

This reminded Lin Zhiyi of what Du Qian had said—that Xingxing’s heart condition might be related to the drugs Gong Chen had taken that night.

Could even Gong Chen’s body have suffered repercussions?

Lost in thought, her phone rang—it was the rideshare driver announcing their arrival.

Lin Zhiyi hurriedly dragged her suitcase downstairs and told the clerk she would be taking Xingxing back to her hometown for a while.

As for where her hometown was, the clerk didn’t know.

After getting in the car, Lin Zhiyi didn’t head to any transportation hubs. Instead, just like three years ago, she went to an intersection near the highway tollgate.

She had to guard against the camera in the rideshare car.

The mother and daughter had only been gone for a short while.

A car pulled up in front of the inn, and Du Qian got out in a rush, still wearing his white coat.

He must have been in an extreme hurry.

The clerk took one look at him and immediately knew who he was looking for.

"The landlady isn’t here."

"Is Xingxing alright?" Du Qian asked anxiously.

"She’s fine."

"Where did they go?" Du Qian walked straight inside, even the clerk couldn’t stop him.

The clerk frowned. "Doctor Du, this is a ladies’ establishment today. Your behavior isn’t appropriate."

Du Qian snapped back to his senses, reining in his expression. "Sorry, I heard about the kindergarten accident and became too worried about them."

"Really, it’s fine. The landlady took Xingxing back to her hometown, probably so she wouldn’t be frightened."

"When did they leave?" Du Qian’s face tensed.

"About ten or so minutes ago."

Upon hearing this, Du Qian’s fists clenched slightly, and he turned to run out.

The clerk pursed their lips. "Why is Doctor Du acting so strange today?"

...

At the hotel.
