Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 586

Chapter 586: Chapter 586: Just a Coincidence?

When returning to the hospital, the sunny weather during the day suddenly turned to dark clouds looming over the city.

It felt stifling, as if it was hard to breathe.

A cold wind swept in, and Lin Zhiyi shrank his neck, accidentally missing a step on the staircase.

As she fell, she landed in a man’s embrace.

"Throwing yourself at me?"

"No." Lin Zhiyi struggled a bit but was held tighter, prompting her to glance around, "Third Young Master, this is a hospital, there are many people." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"Just right to threaten you for a proper title." Gong Chen said with an unchanged expression.

"Threaten me? What do I have to be afraid of?"

Did he mistake the person? He should be the one to be afraid, right?

Having just lost his wife not long ago, and now holding someone else publicly.

Gong Chen lowered his head, his voice deep: "Threaten you to disavow me when you climb out of bed. Begin and abandon."

Lin Zhiyi laughed out of anger.

"Third Young Master, you are a bit shameless."

He leaned closer and spoke slowly.

"From shameless to despicable, you truly are understanding me more deeply."

His eyes revealed a trace of darkness as he emphasized the words deeply understood.

Sometimes Lin Zhiyi really didn’t want to comprehend his ambiguities.

Understanding but having to pretend not to, yet he could see through it in one glance.

She tilted her face slightly, yet was still pressed upon by him.

"You’ve called me shameless, feeling a bit better now?"

"You... did it on purpose?" Lin Zhiyi was stunned.

"Seeing you always absent-minded, with your mom now in a sensitive period, seeing you like this she will definitely overthink." Gong Chen replied.

"Thank you."

Lin Zhiyi raised her hand to rub her cheeks.

An involuntary action, but in Gong Chen’s eyes, it was as innocent as when she was sixteen.

Clearly, she has a charming face, but privately, she is such a contrast.

Thankfully, only he knows this contrast.

His Lin Zhiyi should live like this.

Gong Chen couldn’t help but pinch her face: "Go upstairs, it’s cold outside."

Lin Zhiyi squinted her eyes, not arguing with him.

Once in the ward, Liu He, under Gong Shiyan’s comfort, had significantly recovered her complexion.

Seeing Lin Zhiyi arrive, she hurriedly propped herself up, her fast movements making her stomach tense, and was then supported to sit down.

"Xiao He, slow down."

Gong Shiyan’s face changed with fear.

Liu He pursed her lips: "I forgot."

Seeing this, Lin Zhiyi felt a little helpless, quickly pulling out perfume from her bag.

"Mom, is this from your colleague?"

"How, how did you know?" Liu He widened her eyes, her lips trembling a little.

"I asked someone who likes perfume, saying this bottle is very special."

After Lin Zhiyi finished speaking, she saw Liu He gulp down her saliva, her eyes darting around before nodding.

Obviously, she seemed a bit guilty.

Liu He said: "This was indeed given to me by my colleague Wei Xiaoyun, more than twenty years ago, when there weren’t so many regulations in the store. She was in charge of luxury and jewelry products. When she had something, I would substitute for her work, this was her thanking me on my birthday, giving me this perfume."

"Then how did she die?" Lin Zhiyi asked curiously.

Liu He subconsciously glanced at Lin Zhiyi, then lowered her head to touch her stomach, concealing her gaze.

"She was deceived, lost both people and wealth, owed a lot of money, got mentally distressed by creditors, so... jumped into the river and committed suicide."

"We received the news and went to the riverbank, where we saw her shoes, cellphone, and a suicide note."

"Like me, she came from a small city to strive for success. To keep up with the pace of the big city, besides work, she encouraged me to attend night school."

"We just kept encouraging each other, moving from ordinary counter staff to luxury boutique, who knew..."

Liu He, recalling her friend, picked up the perfume on the table, her eyes filled with emotion.
