Chapter 88 -88: Listening to Their Affection

Several days later, while Song Wanqiu was targeting Chen Huan, Lin Zhiyi completed her design with a low profile.

Worrying about any mishaps, she personally delivered it to President Yu’s company.

President Yu, stroking the jewelry with satisfaction, lifted an eyebrow and fixed his gaze on Lin Zhiyi, “Don’t you want to know why I’ve placed a separate order for your design?”

Lin Zhiyi was very clear about her place, not asking questions that she shouldn’t ask.

She smiled lightly, “As long as President Yu is happy.”

President Yu, supporting his chin, hinted, “Someone is going to bleed a lot.”

“Hmm? What?” Lin Zhiyi looked at President Yu, not understanding.

Unexpectedly, President Yu shifted the topic, “How did you get here?”

Lin Zhiyi paused, then replied, “I took a taxi.”

President Yu smiled wryly, his eyes showing a hint of ambiguity, “Then I’ll find someone to send you back.” _{freewebnøvel.com}

“No need, no…”

Before Lin Zhiyi could refuse, President Yu called out to the office.

“Have you not finished looking over the contract? If you don’t come out now, our guest might leave.”

Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi looked up toward the office.

The door opened, and a profound figure slowly stepped out.

Lin Zhiyi could not smile at all when she saw who it was.

Gong Chen.

She furrowed her brow and stepped back to maintain distance between them, but President Yu suddenly grabbed her.

President Yu leaned in close to her and whispered, “Why so distant? Then my scented candles would have been lit for nothing.”

As soon as scented candles were mentioned, Lin Zhiyi faintly remembered how she acted in front of Gong Chen, feeling heat over her face.

“I… I didn’t realize you were discussing business, I didn’t mean to interrupt, I’ll be leaving now.”

After speaking, she made her way quickly toward the elevator.

President Yu walked up to Gong Chen, “Aren’t you going to chase her? You’ve scared her. Next time don’t set off fireworks, just use firecrackers instead.”

Gong Chen remained silent and followed Lin Zhiyi’s steps.

Thinking of something, President Yu waved the jewelry at Gong Chen, “Thanks, Third Young Master, remember to have Lin Zhiyi watch tonight’s news report.”

…

At the elevator.

Lin Zhiyi pressed the button several times forcefully, but the elevator wouldn’t budge.

Even the elevator seemed to be against her!

Suddenly, a hand reached from behind her and pressed the elevator button.

Lin Zhiyi’s body stiffened, a powerful presence looming from behind her. She tried to move aside, but the man’s other arm was also pressed against the wall, trapping her with nowhere to escape.

The man’s calm voice rang above her head, “What are you running for?”

Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips, unsure of what to say.

What could she run from?

Of course, it was to avoid him, to prevent Song Wanqiu from going crazy.

The elevator doors conveniently opened just then.

With the gap, she immediately squeezed to the side, performing an unfamiliar gesture of politeness.

“Uncle, you seem busy, you go first.”

“You really are becoming more understanding.”

Gong Chen’s eyes turned icy cold, carrying a chill as he stepped into the elevator.

Lin Zhiyi lowered her gaze, not daring to look at him until the elevator doors slowly closed, and she let out a soft sigh of relief.

But the next second, she was pulled into the elevator by force, her body pinned against the wall before she could stabilize herself.

The man pressed close to her body, his stiff suit fabric moving with his breathing, unintentionally rubbing against her.

Lin Zhiyi suppressed her rapid breathing and shrunk back, trying to put some distance between them.

But the more she tried to escape, the closer he pressed.

Until their bodies were tightly pressed together.

“That night, used then forgotten?” Gong Chen’s gaze dropped slightly, his expression cold and his tone deliberate.

Lin Zhiyi blurted out in frustration, “I didn’t use it that night!”

Gong Chen leaned in, matching her height, his dark eyes steady and assured as if he was looking at his prey.

“So you remember after all. I thought you had lost your memory.”

“…”
