Chapter 568: Chapter 568: How about trying it all on tonight?
Sang Li did not hide Chu Yin and Xingxing; instead, he settled them in the most luxurious hotel in Jing City.
The hotel’s shareholders are skilled and have connections in both the underworld and legitimate spheres.
Trying to act without a trace here, even the old man would find it difficult.
Lin Zhiyi thought about how recently Chu Yin helped take care of Xingxing; not only did she prepare a large red envelope, but she also bought so won’s things.
Chu Yin, after all, is a small celebrity and usually dresses quite casually.
Lin Zhiyi could tell she had her difficulties, so she took this opportunity to give her so gifts.
Knocking on the door, she saw Chu Yin in cute pajamas playing with Xingxing.
As soon as Xingxing saw her, she put her hands on her hips and snorted.
Lin Zhiyi gave Gong Chen a look.
Look, the little darling is mad.
Gong Chen imdiately squatted down, teasing Xingxing for a while before she reluctantly allowed herself to be picked up.
“Daddy, are you alright now?”
Hearing this, sothing seed to flicker in Gong Chen’s eyes as he reached out to pat Xingxing’s head.
“I’m fine now.”
Lin Zhiyi gave the father and daughter so space, turning to hand the items in her hands to Chu Yin.
Chu Yin said in surprise, “What’s this?”
“Clothes, bags, and so jewelry I designed myself. Don’t dislike them,” Lin Zhiyi said.
Chu Yin opened the shopping bag, saw the brand logo, and quickly pushed it back.
“You’ve already paid ; I can’t accept these.”
“I heard from Mr. Sang that you helped despite being injured. I’m really grateful. And didn’t you say last ti you were going to attend an event? You can’t wear rented cheap dresses every ti, right? I have a feeling you’ll beco famous. By then, with you wearing my jewelry, I’d also gain so exposure.”
Lin Zhiyi stuffed the bag into Chu Yin’s hands.
Chu Yin, a bit awkward, said, “I, I injured the investor’s head last ti. When I went to apologize in their room, I nearly… I was disqualified from the event, so I can’t use these.”
“I’m sorry.”
“It’s not your fault. Besides, even if I went, I’d just stand in the corner. It doesn’t matter, just missing a few als.”
Speaking, Chu Yin tried to return the items.
Lin Zhiyi blocked her hand, “Consider it a gift between friends. Perhaps another event will soon find you. Just accept it.”
Only then did Chu Yin accept the items.
“Thanks for the kind words. Co in and have a seat.”
Lin Zhiyi was about to nod but then saw Sang Li’s suitcase in the room.
She quickly declined, “No, I don’t want to disturb you.”
Chu Yin followed her gaze and sighed, “I wish, but he’s guarding against like a thief, not giving any chance.”
“You won’t act recklessly. Otherwise, he wouldn’t let you stay here.” Lin Zhiyi smiled, “I just see that it’s quite late, and you haven’t recovered fully, so get so early rest.”
Chu Yin looked at the things on the floor, recalling Lin Zhiyi’s words.
Having people care for you feels like this.
She nodded a bit shyly, “Mm.”
Lin Zhiyi tidied up Xingxing’s luggage and gave a friendly reminder to Chu Yin before leaving.
“Mr. Sang was very busy today and didn’t eat much.”
“Oh.”
Chu Yin responded softly.
…
Su He Bay.
Along the way, Xingxing talked a lot with Gong Chen.
When they entered the door, Xingxing, out of energy, fell asleep on Gong Chen’s shoulder.
Gong Chen carefully placed her on the bed, gently smoothing her hair by her face.
Lin Zhiyi had just covered her with a freshly changed quilt when her wrist tightened as Gong Chen pulled her back into the bedroom.
She hadn’t reacted yet; her body was pinned against the door.
“Zhiyi, I’m hungry too.”
The man’s deep voice brushed past Lin Zhiyi’s ear, resonating through her heart like tickling bees.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm her heat, but her nostrils were filled with his scent.
Instead, it made her warm faster.
“You’re hungry, but leaning on won’t help. I’ll check the fridge for food.”
As Lin Zhiyi spoke, she pushed Gong Chen’s chest.
His body was hard, like a wall, strongly confining her in his arms, mixed with familiar yet dangerous air.
His hand braced against the door, slowly sliding down as he leaned in, making a ticklish sound.
“Zhiyi, I’m jealous.”
She paused, “Jealous of what?”
“I haven’t eaten either,” he said in a deep voice.
“…”
She rely reminded Chu Yin, that’s all.
He’s jealous of that?
Third Young Master’s stomach isn’t very big.
“Shall I cook you sothing?”
Lin Zhiyi slipped out from under his arm, but he was blocking the door, so she couldn’t leave.
Gong Chen leaned against the door, staring at her, “Are we guessing?”
Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips, “No, let go. I’ll check the kitchen.”
“Zhiyi, you can’t fool . You’re worried about sothing.”
“…”
Lin Zhiyi, having been seen through, was montarily speechless.
She indeed had sothing on her mind.
When Gong Chen learned about Ye Feifei and Wen Qing’s troubles, he was too calm.
With his ability, it was impossible not to know the old man would act.
Unless he deliberately gave the old man the chance to act.
She couldn’t figure it out.
“Co closer.”
Gong Chen focused on Lin Zhiyi’s eyes, his gaze bewitching.
She slowly moved a step forward.
“A bit closer,” he said, his tone unable to hide his affection.
As Lin Zhiyi hesitated, the man moved to her side until their breaths overlapped again.
He pressed his forehead against hers, “He annexed all my mother’s family industries in the country back then, forcing my mother’s relatives to move abroad. I promised my mother, to return everything.”
“Although I’ve already reclaid so industries over the years, he’s not foolish; the main industries are still under his control.”
“Today, as I force him to the edge, other mbers of the Gong Family might turn against him to stay safe.”
“I won’t make trouble for myself. As long as he’s under my control, it doesn’t matter if he holds that position.”
“Do you understand?”
After listening, Lin Zhiyi nodded her head.
But internally, she was not calm.
She worried, “He won’t let you go.”
Gong Chen’s fingers gently brushed Lin Zhiyi’s cheek, gliding from her ear to her chin.
After pausing for a few seconds, he cupped her face slowly.
He gazed at her with suppressed feelings lurking in his eyes.
“I can’t care about that. I need him to know that for you, I’m ready to risk everything.”
“If one of us has to die, it’ll only be .”
Lin Zhiyi froze.
Her heart pounded wildly, almost out of control.
She swallowed, “Are you, are you hungry?”
“Starving,” his gaze deepened.
“Then what are you waiting for?”
After saying that, Lin Zhiyi’s neck turned red.
Gong Chen chuckled, “Zhiyi, wordplay?”
“You’re so annoying.”
Lin Zhiyi stood on her tiptoes to seal his lips.
Her kiss was light, filled with cautious exploration and unspoken affection.
But for Gong Chen, after waiting several years, the girl finally took the initiative, and even if it was poison, he’d taste it.
He deepened the kiss.
The next second, Lin Zhiyi wrapped her arms around his waist.
Gong Chen took a deep breath, almost unable to hold back.
He held her body with one hand, his voice husky, “Where did you learn this?”
Lin Zhiyi buried her face in his neck, “Don’t ask.”
“It seems you’ve learned quite a bit. Should we test it all on tonight?”
Lin Zhiyi murmured, “Shaless.”
Gong Chen carried her into the bathroom.
Steam filled the air.
Her moist, fair back pressed against the fogged glass, rising and falling.
The sound of water separated the intermittent sounds…
