At the same time.
Lin Zhiyi and Chu Yin were having a lively conversation.
Gong Chen approached, "What are you chatting about? You seem so happy."
Lin Zhiyi said, "Weāre talking about Chu Yinās new boss. She thinks heās another sleazy old man."
Gong Chen paused, then turned suspiciously to look at Sang Li.
Sang Li coughed, "Not necessarily."
Chu Yin looked at Sang Li with an expression that said āyou donāt understandā.
"Our company is full of female artists. Iāve heard several pretty ones have already been signed again. This old geezer probably treats the company like his personal harem, the old perv. I wish he would just cancel my contract."
"..."
Sang Li raised an eyebrow.
Interesting.
Lin Zhiyi was laughing heartily, and the little Xingxing fell asleep with his head tilted.
"Enough chatting, itās Xingxingās nap time. Weāll head back now."
"Okay, bye-bye."
Chu Yin waved her hand and left with Sang Li.
Before getting into the car, Lin Zhiyi turned back and said, "Chu Yin, donāt forget to tell me what your new boss looks like."
Chu Yin made an OK gesture.
...
Su He Bay.
Today Liao Yi had a day off, making the house much quieter.
Gong Chen carried Xingxing back to the room and helped her change clothes.
"You go rest; Iāll take care of it here."
"Okay."
Lin Zhiyi went back to her room and changed into some casual clothes.
When she came out, she found that Gong Chen wasnāt in the childrenās room.
She turned and went into the study, finding Gong Chen sitting at the table, looking at something.
As she got closer, she realized Gong Chen was reading her notebook.
Suddenly realizing something, she quickly backed away.
Without raising his head, Gong Chen said lightly, "Where are you running off to?"
Lin Zhiyi paused, smiling, "Iām not running away. I suddenly got thirsty and wanted to get a cup of..."
There was a light thud on the table.
Gong Chenās tea cup had already been moved towards Lin Zhiyi.
"Water."
Lin Zhiyi hesitated for a moment and spat out the last word.
Gong Chen looked up at her and gestured with his hand.
"Come here."
"..."
Lin Zhiyiās feet seemed to have a mind of their own, carrying her over to his side.
Before she could ask, she was pulled into the manās embrace.
Lin Zhiyi sat on his lap, right in front of her notebook.
Watching the manās long, slender fingers turn the pages was strangely pleasing to the eye.
Even her twenty-yuan notebook seemed to gain some value.
As she was lost in thought, the man behind her suddenly leaned in.
His nose lightly brushed against her hair, each breath seemed to tease her.
The manās unique scent made her heart race.
"Zhiyi, donāt you have something to explain?"
Gong Chen whispered softly, his warm breath circling Lin Zhiyiās neck.
She shivered slightly, as if a current passed through her fingers.
Lin Zhiyi cleared her throat, "Explain what?"
Gong Chen flipped to the last page of the notebook.
His fingertips slid over each line.
"Donāt you want to explain these? How did you know Second Master Baiās identity in advance? Or the issue on the cruise? You even foresaw that the Bai Family wouldnāt collapse. How did you manage that?"
Bai Ruoshu and Yang Jingwei perfectly extricated themselves and even salvaged a third of the Bai Familyās assets.
In some sense, the Bai Family didnāt actually collapse.
And all of this, even Gong Chen only predicted towards the end.
Yet Lin Zhiyi had thought of it long ago.
It had to be seen as peculiar.
Swamped by these questions, Lin Zhiyi was momentarily speechless.
After thinking for a while, she gave a non-reason as a reason.
Turning to Gong Chen, she said, "What if I told you I dreamed it? Would you believe me?"
Gong Chen responded directly, "I donāt believe it."
Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips and lightly tapped his shoulder.
"Why are you not following the playbook? Arenāt you supposed to earnestly say you believe me at this point?"
