Chapter 309: Chapter 309: Hating Soone Without Satisfaction Chapter 309: Chapter 309: Hating Soone Without Satisfaction At the nick of ti, Lin Zhiyi’s body was tightly held and rolled to the roadside.
Screams from the surrounding pedestrians ca in waves, but all she could hear beside her own breathing,
was the man’s pained grunt.
She instinctively clung onto the man’s clothes.
The man seed to notice her fear, holding her even tighter: “Don’t be afraid, let’s get up first.”
Hearing his voice, Lin Zhiyi regained her senses, looked up at the man, feeling a complex mix of emotions.
It was Gong Chen.
Whether it was her illusion or not, his lips seed sowhat pale.
“Are you…” alright?
Just as she was about to speak, kind-hearted passersby had already run over to help them up.
“Are you guys okay?”
Lin Zhiyi shook her head, the words she wanted to say never left her mouth.
When she looked at Gong Chen again, he was still composed and contained, showing a slight nod of gratitude to the passersby.
At this mont, the off-road vehicle driver rolled down the window and started blaming them first.
“What are you doing? Thinking that being in love ans you don’t cherish life? Don’t fucking cause trouble, okay?”
After shifting the bla on Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen, he imdiately floored the gas and sped off.
Lin Zhiyi wanted to chase the car but was stopped by Gong Chen grabbing her wrist.
“Don’t go. He just wants you to chase after him.”
Lin Zhiyi paused, recalling the scene that just unfolded, from being pushed onto the road to the tily appearance and acceleration of the off-road vehicle.
It was clearly a man-made accident.
Just thinking about it, she felt a chill down her spine. Has murder beco so overt nowadays?
Lin Zhiyi still stepped back, hesitating about what to say to Gong Chen, when she spotted that college student in the crowd.
He adjusted his collar and walked against the flow of people.
Lin Zhiyi had a bad feeling, imdiately grabbing Gong Chen’s hand.
“Let’s go.”
Gong Chen glanced down at their hands and said deeply, “You’re rarely so proactive.”
Lin Zhiyi glared at him: “I’m not joking with you, I saw the person who pushed coming this way.”
Gong Chen glanced sideways and led Lin Zhiyi away.
By the ti Lin Zhiyi ca to her senses, she realized there were fewer and fewer people around them.
“We should run towards where there are more people. Why co here? There’s not even a shadow in front.”
Gong Chen said sternly, “If they let you go today, they can find you tomorrow.”
Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi imdiately understood what he intended to do, stopped in her tracks, and prevented him from walking into a dark alley.
She blurted out, “No! Your injuries…”
Mid-sentence, she realized she had overstepped, and quickly let go of his hand.
But before she could withdraw her hand completely, Gong Chen pulled it back along with her body.
“Finish what you were saying.”
“It’s nothing.” Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips.
“I’ll take it as if you said it.”
The man looked down at Lin Zhiyi.
Although the alley was dimly lit, his eyes were deep and clear, as if seeing through all her concerns.
Lin Zhiyi took a step back, trying to avoid his gaze.
But Gong Chen pressed closer, his gaze unwaveringly fixed on her, eventually settling on her neck.
“Lend your scarf for a mont.”
“No…”
Lin Zhiyi couldn’t refuse in ti, as he swiftly took the scarf and wrapped it around his fist.
“Go hide.”
With those words, Gong Chen walked into the alley.
Before Lin Zhiyi could even think, she heard approaching footsteps from behind and imdiately hid in a shadowy corner.
She was well aware of her capabilities; these people were clearly experienced, and she was no match for them. Hiding was the least she could do to not ss things up further.
Almost simultaneously, two n’s figures flashed under the streetlight at the entrance of the alley.
Lin Zhiyi recognized both individuals, not just the man dressed like a college student but also the off-road vehicle driver.
Indeed, the two of them are in cahoots.
If she really got hit by a car, it would most likely be deed a traffic accident.
She might even lighten the driver’s responsibility because she entered the vehicle lane on her own.
Then she will truly die with her eyes wide open.
While pondering, the sounds of two n begging for rcy soon ca from the alley.
It seems it’s over, Lin Zhiyi imdiately rushed into the dark alley; she had to know who wanted to kill her.
But as soon as she steadied herself, Li Huan and Chen Jin arrived with their people.
Gong Chen didn’t even give Lin Zhiyi a chance to speak, looking down on the n from above: “Take care of them.”
Chen Jin imdiately had people gag the two n and took them away.
Seeing this, even the foolish Lin Zhiyi knew what Gong Chen intended.
“Why gag them? Is there sothing I can’t hear? They were after my life, why shouldn’t I know anything?”
“You don’t need to know.” Gong Chen, hidden in the darkness, spoke with a slightly chilly tone.
Lin Zhiyi was stunned for a mont, and she already had her answer.
“Wen Qing? Is it her? Why are you protecting her? Who are you to make decisions for ?”
Lin Zhiyi questioned Gong Chen, like a bristling little beast, and turned around and rushed towards the two n who were taken away.
But she had only taken a few steps when the man behind her stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her from behind.
“Let go! My issues have nothing to do with you!”
Lin Zhiyi raised her hand in a desperate struggle, but Gong Chen controlled her wrists with one hand, pressing them tightly against her chest, immobilizing her arms.
“What good does it do for you to desperately go after her death? Don’t forget, you are going to get further education! Do you not want your dreams anymore? And… how are you going to explain it to Sang Li?”
After speaking, sothing fell from Lin Zhiyi’s chest.
She looked down and realized it was the scarf that Gong Chen had just removed from her neck.
Intact.
He never used it.
Thinking this, Lin Zhiyi subconsciously looked at the man’s hands gripping her wrists tightly.
The knuckles were all swollen, so parts still bleeding.
She stared at the man’s hands, suddenly lost for words, a surge of emotions filling her eyes.
Why is he always like this?
Making people hate him is not even satisfying!
Lin Zhiyi stopped struggling.
Gong Chen also let her go, his gaze toward her gradually calming.
“Let’s go back.”
“…”
Lin Zhiyi clenched the scarf over her chest and walked towards the alley exit.
Suddenly, a sound of soone falling ca from behind, along with Chen Jin’s urgent shouts.
“Third Young Master!”
…
Lin Zhiyi followed Chen Jin and Li Huan dazedly, and the next ti she heard a clear voice, she was already standing in the house at Su He Bay.
After checking, Li Huan sighed in relief: “Thankfully he’s wearing the lumbar support, otherwise with all the falling and hitting, the surgery would have been for naught.”
Lin Zhiyi lifted her eyes to look at the unconscious Gong Chen.
With his shirt open, his firm chest showed a pale, bloodless pallor, which made the black lumbar support around his waist particularly noticeable.
Because it was tied so tight, deep red marks were left on his skin, as if tearing at his body.
She didn’t know his injuries were so severe before.
Wasn’t it supposed to be just a minor minimally invasive surgery?
Chen Jin glanced over Lin Zhiyi then guiltily looked at Gong Chen: “It’s my fault, I didn’t expect those people to be so reckless.”
“All they recognize is money, how could they care about his status?” Li Huan said helplessly.
Lin Zhiyi stiffened upon hearing this.
Yes, people who dare to attack in a crowded area are certainly desperadoes.
This is sothing Gong Chen wouldn’t have failed to consider.
Then why did he still rush into the alley?
Lin Zhiyi lowered her head, her back slightly trembling, struggling to control her breath, as if putting any force might shatter the person on the bed, like a bubble.
