Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 412

Chapter 412: Chapter 412: A Test Will Tell

"What?" Lin Zhiyi looked at the palm in front of her with surprise.

"He must have given you something, and it’s still on you now," Gong Chen said.

"No, I haven’t taken anything from him, I... I have one thing."

Lin Zhiyi was stunned for a moment and took out her phone from her bag.

Gong Chen’s face darkened slightly, "He even has to give you a phone?"

"Not gave, it’s compensation. The seaside food festival in the town, he accidentally dropped my phone in the sea, and he compensated me with one."

Gong Chen took the phone, gave it a gentle shake, "Want to know if what I’m saying is true?"

"You mean checking the phone?"

"No, that’s too slow, I have a quicker way."

"What way?"

Lin Zhiyi felt that Gong Chen’s expression was strange.

Gong Chen didn’t say it clearly; he just started the car.

Ten minutes later, he parked the car at the entrance of the town’s only couples’ hotel.

Looking at the pink signboard, Lin Zhiyi was slightly taken aback.

Gong Chen slightly tilted his head, "Want to go in?"

Lin Zhiyi crossed her arms, "No!"

Gong Chen curved his lips slightly, "Wait for me in the car."

He pulled up his collar and took Lin Zhiyi’s phone into the hotel.

Ten minutes later, he came back to the car.

Lin Zhiyi didn’t see her phone, then she knew what he was up to.

"Will he come? If he really cared, shouldn’t he have come to the hotel where I was staying yesterday?"

"How do you know he didn’t come?" Gong Chen looked out the car window.

"You mean he might have been downstairs at the hotel last night?"

"Yes, it’s just that the suite elevator needs a room card swipe, so he couldn’t come up. Otherwise, do you think he wouldn’t want to come up?"

Saying this, Gong Chen turned to stare at her.

Lin Zhiyi felt uneasy under his gaze, rubbing her arms lightly. _{ƒreewebηoveℓ.com}

To avoid being recognized, they were in Liao Yi’s small car, the only downside was the heating wasn’t great, and the temperature difference by the seaside was quite large between day and night.

Just sitting for a while, she started to feel cold.

Lin Zhiyi breathed out, turned to get a thick coat from the luggage bag in the back seat.

Coincidentally, Gong Chen also turned, in the already cramped space, they almost collided.

"Cold?"

He didn’t move back, in the dark car, his eyes looked at Lin Zhiyi like a leopard staring at its prey.

Breathing was like a tide, as if invisibly approaching her.

Lin Zhiyi’s heart was pounding, feeling like it would be heard by Gong Chen the next second, she quickly sat back straight.

"Yes." She nodded slightly.

Gong Chen turned to take his coat from the back seat and wrapped it around Lin Zhiyi.

"Thank you."

She adjusted the coat, creating a bit of distance between them.

When Gong Chen heard the word "thank," his eyes darkened slightly, he didn’t say anything more, turning his gaze out the window.

Ten minutes later, Lin Zhiyi rubbed her still cold hands.

Ever since giving birth to Xingxing, she’s been more sensitive to cold.

In this season, the locals of Gang City still wore just sweaters, but she was already in a sweater and a coat.

She clenched her somewhat frozen hands.

Suddenly, the person beside her stretched his long arm over and tightly held her hand.

"So cold?"

"I’m fine, it’ll be okay in a while." Lin Zhiyi tried to pull back her hand.

As a result, not only did she fail to retract her hand, but he pulled her along with it.

When Lin Zhiyi touched the scorching skin, she shuddered as if electrocuted and couldn’t help but exclaim.

He actually stuffed her hand under his sweater.

"Don’t move," his breath was hot as he spoke in a deep, hoarse voice, "Otherwise... the room is already booked, can go upstairs anytime."

Lin Zhiyi’s face flushed; luckily, it was dark around.

"Not cold anymore?" he leaned in and asked softly.

She also didn’t know how to face Du Qian.

Upstairs.

Du Qian woke up the sleepy receptionist, lying and saying his girlfriend drank too much and was brought here, begging him for help on the phone.

The receptionist, realizing it was a cheating catch scene, got interested immediately.

While reminding Du Qian not to invade customer privacy, also allowed him to go upstairs.

In the end, Du Qian snatched the master key card sticking out of the receptionist’s pocket and directly opened the room door.

Only to find it empty inside.

The receptionist was stunned too; where was the cheating catch promised?

Du Qian rushed into the room, only finding Lin Zhiyi’s phone on the bed.

His breath caught, immediately realizing something, turned around, and ran downstairs, out of the hotel.

Just in time to see the rear of Liao Yi’s car.

Du Qian’s anger surged, he directly smashed the phone on the ground.

He circled around the hotel downstairs for a dozen rounds, only calming down then, pulled out a phone and dialed a number.

"President Wen, I agree to your conditions."

"Doctor Du, happy cooperation."

...

On the way back to the hotel, Gong Chen bought Lin Zhiyi a new phone.

As soon as he installed the sim card and powered it on, it was full of messages from Du Qian.

Gong Chen glanced at it, displeased, "What’s he saying?"

Lin Zhiyi read aloud, "He says the location function is in the phone by default, because I was living in the town alone with Xingxing, he was worried about our safety so he didn’t turn it off. He also said he watched Xingxing grow up, and the last thing he wants is for anything to happen to Xingxing."

In the past, Du Qian truly was attentive to Xingxing.

Gong Chen scanned Lin Zhiyi’s expression, worried she still believed in Du Qian’s benevolence as a doctor.

This was the perception most people had about doctors.

He poured cold water over Lin Zhiyi directly, "At this time, instead of apologizing, he dragged a child into it, don’t you find it even stranger?"

Lin Zhiyi ignored the flood of messages that kept popping up and chose to turn off the phone.

"I know."
