Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 738

Chapter 738: Chapter 738: I Want to Hear It Tonight

Proposing at someone else’s wedding, this is the first time Lin Zhiyi has encountered such a thing.

For a moment, she didn’t know how to respond.

"I..."

Just as she was thinking, Sister Zhou and her husband came over to toast.

Lin Zhiyi quickly picked up her glass and stood up to greet them.

Sister Zhou smiled and said, "Zhiyi, Third Y... Well, you two eat a bit more, don’t be shy."

"Alright, you go ahead."

Lin Zhiyi took a sip of her drink.

After sitting down, Gong Chen served her some food but didn’t say another word.

It was as if he wasn’t the one talking about marriage earlier.

Lin Zhiyi even wondered if it was her imagination.

After the wedding ended, Sister Zhou pulled Lin Zhiyi aside.

"Why are you two pretending not to know me here?"

"It’s not that, it’s just..."

Lin Zhiyi recounted what Gong Chen had said about marriage earlier.

Sister Zhou rested her chin in her hand: "Then you also need to clarify. I feel like when you two broke up, a big reason was that you didn’t want to ask, and he didn’t want to explain."

"Actually, Third Young Master cares about you a lot. Many things I figured out only afterward."

Lin Zhiyi looked at her: "What did you figure out?"

Sister Zhou said mysteriously, "Before you moved to the apartment, the property management conducted a system survey in our building. They asked whether household pets were male or female. Later, I found out from the management that it was ordered from above. They notified the building not to have unregistered residents, nor residents with a bad history, and ladies first."

She nudged Lin Zhiyi with her elbow, signaling her to look into the distance.

It was exactly where Gong Chen was waiting for her.

Sister Zhou continued, "I don’t need to say who it is. Later on, Third Young Master approached me to look after you. Well, I admit I took the money; Third Young Master gave too much."

"That year during his wedding with Miss Sang, he also asked me to take you out of town for a bit, though he didn’t explain; his condition was worse than yours."

"Now that you two are finally together, as an observer, I feel it’s hard-won. If you have any thoughts, don’t keep them to yourself like before."

After listening, Lin Zhiyi stood there in a daze.

Looking at the man ahead, she felt that the fear of touching upon the dark clouds in her heart suddenly cleared away.

She smiled at Sister Zhou: "I understand, I’m going now."

"Go ahead, I hope when I return from my trip, I’ll receive your good news."

Sister Zhou waved her hand.

Then she turned, holding her husband’s hand, and left.

Gazing at Sister Zhou’s joyful smile, Lin Zhiyi couldn’t help but be infected by it.

She cheerfully walked toward Gong Chen.

He was looking into the distance, seemingly unaware of her presence.

Lin Zhiyi unexpectedly hugged him.

Gong Chen paused, looking down at her: "What’s up?"

"Nothing, just wanted to hug you."

Lin Zhiyi leaned against his chest, took a deep breath, and felt much relieved.

She continued: "It’s not that I’m avoiding the marriage thing on purpose. I also want to marry you. But we both have things to do now, I don’t want anyone to be distracted, accomplishing nothing. Besides, my mom is pregnant, how can we discuss marriage?"

"I understand." Gong Chen said in a deep voice, "I didn’t intend to force you."

Lin Zhiyi looked up at him: "You’re not angry?"

"Mm."

"Then why didn’t you say anything earlier?" Lin Zhiyi asked in surprise.

"I didn’t want to say too much and reveal my identity, but I didn’t expect to hear your true confession."

Gong Chen jokingly opened his mouth.

Usually, at times like these, given Lin Zhiyi’s stubborn personality, she would definitely deny it was a sincere confession.

At most, she’d say it was an explanation.

But Lin Zhiyi seriously looked at Gong Chen, asking: "That confession... did you like it?"

Gong Chen was dazed, not coming back to his senses for quite a while.

"You..."

"Do you like it or not?" Lin Zhiyi boldly asked.

"I like it."

After speaking, Gong Chen realized that he’d already been won over by Lin Zhiyi.
