Chapter 60 -60: What Will He Think If I Kiss You Here?
“I only care about the result,” Gong Chen’s tone was like he was speaking to a subordinate, “Do I need to teach you how to handle the result?”
Song Wanqiu’s joy had not yet faded from her face, but fear rose in her eyes. She nodded numbly, “I, I understand, I’ll apologize and make amends.”
“Hmm.”
Gong Chen responded and turned to leave.
Song Wanqiu’s body went limp, and she fell backward, but thankfully Qin Shuang supported her.
“Wanqiu, you can’t have an accident. Third Young Master hasn’t cut off ties; there’s still a chance.”
“He hasn’t cut off ties, but he cares less and less about me.”
“So what? As long as he agrees to marry you, that’s enough. Then you can rightfully deal with the women around him. At that time, Lin Zhiyi will have nowhere to be buried!”
Qin Shuang covered her bleeding neck, her teeth clenched in anger.
Song Wanqiu snorted coldly, “Lin Zhiyi. We’ll see.”
At that moment, a maid passed by and caught them both snickering.
They could only leave in dejection.
…
Back to the courtyard.
Liu He quickly had someone make her a pot of tea, and she guzzled half the pot before calming down.
“That scared me to death.” She thumped Lin Zhiyi. “You child, how could you make such a scene without discussing it with me first?”
“I can’t tell you anything because you can’t keep a secret,” Lin Zhiyi said, taking a sip of her tea.
Liu He clicked her tongue but wasn’t annoyed.
Gong Shiyan sat beside Liu He, sweating on behalf of Lin Zhiyi.
“Zhiyi, this was too risky. What if the Song family mother and daughter spread the word that you’re mentally ill? This could affect the rest of your life.”
“They wouldn’t dare. If it gets out, people will ask for evidence and reasons, implicating the old master—do they dare to say anything?” Lin Zhiyi retorted.
Gong Shiyan nodded.
Yet Liu He was filled with worry: “You’re using the old master, and you don’t know how angry he’ll be.”
Instead, Lin Zhiyi patted her hand, “Mom, Uncle, don’t worry. Not only will the old master not be angry, but he’ll also be very kind to both of you.”
Liu He withdrew her hand, laughing with feigned arrogance. As a daughter-in-law, she asked herself if she had done anything wrong.
The old master just looked down on her, despised her—how could he possibly be kind to them as a couple?
While they were discussing, the butler arrived with someone.
“Second Young Master, Second Madam, the old master sent me to deliver something.”
Liu He and Gong Shiyan looked at each other in surprise and hurriedly got up to welcome them.
They grinned from ear to ear as they looked at the items being brought in.
The butler said respectfully, “The Song Family called to say they would come to apologize another day.”
Liu He, stroking the emerald jewelry worth millions, had a slightly proud expression, “Then I better wait properly.”
The butler confirmed the items with them before leaving.
Liu He hugged Gong Shiyan, “Husband, it seems the old master still remembers you.”
Gong Shiyan nodded, his brow relaxing.
He was like that, even if just questioned by his own father; he still remembered the goodwill of others.
The couple was not vigilant, which worried Lin Zhiyi.
Her abilities were limited, and she could not always rely on acting insane to gain an advantage.
Thinking of the couple’s dangers, she became restless and quickly walked up to Gong Shiyan.
“Uncle, you better keep your distance from Lao San in the future.”
“Why?”
“Actually, I wanted to call the police earlier, but Lao San stopped me. I’m afraid that my confrontation with Song Wanqiu at the dinner table could cause him to be angry and affect you.”
Lin Zhiyi hinted subtly that Gong Chen was capable of anything for Song Wanqiu.
Unexpectedly, Gong Shiyan laughed heartily.
“Zhiyi, you are mistaken; it was I who told Lao San to stop you from calling the police.”
Lin Zhiyi’s heart skipped a beat, and she looked at Gong Shiyan in surprise: “Uncle, why would you do that?”
Gong Shiyan smiled warmly, “The old master has always had reservations about you. If he knew that this incident started because of you, he would only get more upset.”
“Uncle, I’m sorry,” Lin Zhiyi said guiltily.
