Chapter 92: Chapter 92 They Have Issues Chapter 92: Chapter 92 They Have Issues Lin Zhiyi was startled by the unfamiliar Gong Chen, her breathing beca hurried as she tried to push him away.
But he caught her wrist, his fingers caressing a patch of skin on her wrist that was a different color.
It was skin that had grown after a burn injury.
“Better?” His deep voice carried a hint of laziness.
Lin Zhiyi turned her face away, not wanting to speak.
Gong Chen raised his hand to turn her face back toward him, pinching it neither too harshly nor too gently.
“Can you speak properly?”
“Uncle, you’ve forgotten—I am as stubborn as a donkey,” Lin Zhiyi said irritably.
Gong Chen rested his hands on the desk, tilted his head down slightly, and let out a subdued chuckle.
“When I speak seriously, you don’t listen. But you clearly rember the things said in passing.”
This ti, his tone was very light, and even carried an ease he had never shown before.
Lin Zhiyi didn’t know how to respond—just monts ago, they’d been at each other’s throats.
She lowered her gaze, not wanting to engage with Gong Chen.
However, Gong Chen didn’t want to let her off so easily. He leaned in close, his fingertips brushing the corners of her lips, approaching her with an aggressive intent.
“Lin Zhiyi, Gong Yan…”
Lin Zhiyi didn’t avoid him but looked back at him with a negotiating tone, “Uncle, if you ss around again, I don’t mind telling the dia about your other won.”
“Oh? Other won?” Gong Chen paused, looking at her calmly.
“For that woman, you customized a dress. Even Song Wanqiu didn’t get such special treatnt. Must have been tough being so busy,” Lin Zhiyi sneered.
Gong Chen half-closed his eyes, his gaze sweeping over Lin Zhiyi, understanding her intentions.
Suddenly, with a cool voice, he said, “You’ve said so much—what are your conditions?”
Lin Zhiyi had only one thing to say: “Stop making things difficult for Big Brother.”
“Using these threats just for him? Lin Zhiyi, you really are sothing.”
Gong Chen stepped back, a dangerous glint in his eyes.
Lin Zhiyi stood straight, her hands behind her back clenching the corner of the table tightly.
Gong Chen didn’t deny the existence of the other woman.
She suddenly felt that her forr self was not just pathetic and laughable—her life was rely a sacrificial pawn.
A wave of pain washed over her, her fingernails cracked, and although the pain shot through her fingers, she had long since beco numb to it.
Gong Chen fell silent for a mont, then his eyes suddenly darkened, “Didn’t you ask which woman it was?”
Lin Zhiyi thought he was testing her: “Uncle, rest assured, I won’t ask too much. I don’t care who that woman is; I just hope you don’t drag into this.”
“Don’t care?” Gong Chen scoffed coldly, “Can you truly not see?”
“What…” Lin Zhiyi was about to ask what he ant when the dormitory door was rudely opened.
The voice was heard before the person was seen.
“Lin Zhiyi! Why haven’t you left yet?”
“It seems we’ll have to help you move, then—Th… Third Young Master!”
It was the director.
Three n in security uniforms followed him, but Lin Zhiyi had never seen them before.
Lin Zhiyi kept an eye out and observed the security guards, their tattoos visible at the collar giving them away.
Although being a security guard was not a very high position, they often appeared on campus, and their overall image was very important.
The school didn’t allow them to have tattoos.
And if they did, they certainly wouldn’t be allowed in such an obvious spot.
Judging from that one guard’s neck, he probably had tattoos from his shoulders to his arms, which would be exposed in the sumr.
They were definitely not campus security.
Gong Chen also noticed this, but he discerned it from the way these n walked.
Their frivolous steps were deliberately light.
They hadn’t been doing stealthy deeds for nothing.
Breaking into a single woman’s dormitory—no one dared to think about what might happen next.
Gong Chen blocked the advancing director: “What’s the matter?”
The director imdiately adopted a servile attitude: “Third Young Master, this building is being renovated for the incoming freshn, and only Lin Zhiyi has been dawdling and not moved out. I empathize with her as a woman finding moving difficult, so I specially brought three security guards to help out.”
“Third Young Master, you don’t have to trouble yourself. I will have soone help Lin Zhiyi.”
His face was full of eagerness to please, yet he dared not et Gong Chen’s eyes, especially when speaking about the three security guards, his voice faltering.
It seems he knew the identity of the three security guards.
But why would he do this?
Just as Lin Zhiyi was about to question the identity of the three guards, Gong Chen stopped her.
Interrupting, he said, “My Gong family’s second young mistress doesn’t need others’ help.”
“What? Second young mistress?” The director’s eyes nearly popped out.
He frantically looked at the three security guards.
The guards shrank back a bit and quickly exited the dormitory.
Lin Zhiyi frowned, wanting to chase after them, but Gong Chen held onto her wrist.
“Let’s go.”
Without giving her a chance to respond, Gong Chen took Lin Zhiyi out of the dormitory.
When they got to the car, Lin Zhiyi shook off his hand.
“Why didn’t you let ask? Those three n are a problem.”
“Get in the car.”
“You know who’s behind this, right?” Lin Zhiyi challenged.
“I said get in the car.”
Gong Chen opened the car door directly.
Lin Zhiyi was well aware that she was no match for Gong Chen. Now that the three security guards were gone, even if she sought out the director, she wouldn’t be able to find out anything.
She had no evidence.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Zhiyi got into the car and followed Gong Chen as they drove away.
…
After sending away the three n, the director dialed a number.
“Miss Song, it wasn’t successful. Third Young Master was unexpectedly there, too.”
“He was there too! Did Third Young Master catch on to anything?” Song Wanqiu’s voice sharpened.
“He probably didn’t, but Third Young Master called Lin Zhiyi the Gong family’s second young mistress. Miss Song, why didn’t you tell ?” The director’s tone carried a note of rebuke.
“What second young mistress she is! You can’t handle your own task, and now you bla !”
Song Wanqiu hung up the phone in a rage, her twisted face making even her mother, Qin Shuang, frown.
Qin Shuang reminded her, “Be mindful of your image. After all, you are a public figure. What would it look like if this gets out?”
“Mother! What image do I have now? This morning, a dog leash factory wanted to endorse them on my account backstage! And now, Third Young Master doesn’t co to see first thing in the morning but instead runs off to help Lin Zhiyi move her dorm. How do you expect to bear this?”
“If the director had been a little quicker, Lin Zhiyi would definitely have been humiliated by those three security guards by now. I’d like to see how she takes pride then!”
Song Wanqiu angrily smashed all the teaware on the table.
After venting, she suddenly cald down.
“Mother, Third Young Master is so smart. He didn’t figure anything out, did he?”
Qin Shuang smiled lazily, “No, even if he has figured sothing out, he won’t say anything.”
“Why?”
“I heard that Third Young Master and President Yu’s collaborator this ti is soone very influential. But the collaborator has very strict requirents, especially regarding avoiding negative news. Since you are Third Young Master’s fiancée, he will definitely protect you. Moreover… the old master wouldn’t allow any slip-ups.”
Qin Shuang patted her hand reassuringly.
Hearing this, Song Wanqiu imdiately revealed a vicious smile.
“Mother, based on what you said, will Third Young Master always take my side now?”
“Of course.”
“That’s good then.”
Song Wanqiu smirked. She would never let Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen be alone together.
