The gallant horse came to a stop.
Lin Zhiyi looked up at the suddenly sparkling area, dazedly recognizing it after a long moment.
This was originally where the villa was located.
But now, there were a lot of amusement park facilities.
She turned her head, looking at Gong Chen with puzzlement.
Gong Chen lowered his gaze. "I plan to build an amusement park."
In his dreams, Xingxing had disappeared on the way to an amusement park.
She never got to go to one before she died.
Lin Zhiyi was taken aback for a moment, turning to look at Gong Chen.
"Is this for Xingxing?"
"For you. Whatever Xingxing has, you will have as well."
"..."
So cheesy.
But so lovely.
Who said the Third Young Master was unromantic? He’s actually wonderful.
Lin Zhiyi pressed her lips together, lightly coughing, "But I’m so grown up, still playing with these?"
Gong Chen suddenly raised an eyebrow slightly, his long lashes trembling, his dark eyes surging with hidden tides.
"The amusement park isn’t ready yet; it’s indeed not suitable for you. Let’s do something more adult."
Lin Zhiyi’s face turned crimson.
"No, I didn’t mean... ah!"
The horse galloped away.
A moment later, Lin Zhiyi found herself standing somewhat dazed at the shooting range.
Gong Chen lowered his head, checking the bulletproof vest on her.
"Remember to wear ear protection later, or you might get tinnitus."
"Is this... what you meant by something more adult?" Lin Zhiyi hesitated.
Gong Chen paused, slightly lifting his gaze, staring at her blushing cheeks.
His eyes grew darker, his Adam’s apple bobbing noticeably.
"What did you think I meant? Bed... mmm."
Lin Zhiyi stood on tiptoe, covering his mouth, her cheeks growing even redder.
This is like a blatant cover-up.
Gong Chen chuckled softly, pulling Lin Zhiyi’s hand away, his lips subtly grazing over her palm, leaving a scorching trail.
"Let me show you."
"Okay."
Though it was a surprise to be here, Lin Zhiyi was filled with curiosity.
Gong Chen greeted the staff, removing his jacket, rolling up the sleeves of his shirt twice.
Then, skillfully loaded the gun.
When he raised his hand, his posture was beautiful.
His figure was tall and straight, broad shoulders, narrow waist, every part taut and powerful.
Lin Zhiyi was captivated by the sight, when suddenly a series of bang, bang, bang sounded beside her ear.
When she regained her senses, Gong Chen had already finished.
"Ten rings," the staff announced.
Lin Zhiyi looked at the display screen—just like that?
She rubbed her hands eagerly, "Let me try."
Gong Chen gestured for her to step forward.
Lin Zhiyi loaded the bullets, aiming at the distant target for a long while.
How did he see it clearly?
She finally felt she aimed correctly and pulled the trigger for a while, but the gun didn’t react at all.
"Is it broken?"
Her first reaction was to point the gun at herself to check.
Gong Chen was so frightened he immediately blocked the muzzle with his hand.
"Zhiyi, never point the gun at yourself; it might accidentally discharge."
Lin Zhiyi was startled, her face burning, looking for an excuse, "Why didn’t it respond?"
"The safety was on."
"..."
Lin Zhiyi felt a little embarrassed.
Gong Chen took the chance to hug her from behind, supporting her wrist.
From loading to aiming, the essential points repeated over and over.
Lin Zhiyi listened intently and did learn quickly, just wasn’t accurate yet.
But Gong Chen was right, as long as it hits someone, it’s considered accurate.
On the way back to Su He Bay, Lin Zhiyi noticed five missed calls from Liao Yi on her phone.
She thought Xingxing was in trouble, quickly returning the call.
"Zhiyi, you finally answered," Liao Yi exclaimed.
"What’s wrong?"
"Fang Sisi posted photos of herself injured online, saying she hopes Chu Yin recovers soon." Liao Yi hastily explained.
"Injured?"
Just as Lin Zhiyi spoke, Gong Chen held his phone out to her.
In the photos, Fang Sisi’s half of the face was swollen, the corner of her mouth slightly bleeding, her hair disheveled, with her dress torn.
She looked quite the mess.
Her caption read, "We went through so much together, I understand the pain in body and soul more than anyone. I hope Ah Yin recovers soon."
Online followers flooded the comments, including some trolls.
"No pain should justify beating you like this, right? You’re a victim too, always helping other victims. Are you okay? Don’t let yourself get hurt again."
Fang Sisi replied, "I’m fine. I always consider them like sisters. If I don’t stand up at this time, who will acknowledge the harm they’ve suffered?"
"Pain in body and soul? So Chu Yin was also... given to men? No wonder she went crazy. Can someone like that even be a public figure? What if she sets a bad example for kids?"
Fang Sisi commented, "Don’t treat her like that. She will get better, I believe."
She didn’t deny anything.
Hoping Chu Yin would be condemned like them.
She knew all too well that the seemingly sympathetic eyes were actually saying they were tainted.
Why should they be the only ones?
"Didn’t Chu Yin seem fine before? Why the sudden mental breakdown? Was she triggered?"
Fang Sisi replied, "A sister of ours committed suicide by jumping. Lin Zhiyi advised her to consider her mother more, and then she..."
"Lin Zhiyi? Her again? Why is she involved in everything? It’s extremely inappropriate to console victims indiscriminately, mentioning their family can only bring shame and humiliation. She’s too much!"
Fang Sisi added, "She meant well."
But she never mentioned that the girl had almost been convinced by Lin Zhiyi.
After reading the news, Lin Zhiyi clenched her hand until it turned red.
