Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 421

Chapter 421: Chapter 421 Zhiyi, I promise

Lin Zhiyi hesitantly took the phone and opened it, only to find that Du Qian’s interview was already gone.

"This is..."

"Playing with him. Every time he posts, I take it down. I’d like to see just how capable he thinks he is." Gong Chen said indifferently.

Lin Zhiyi froze for a moment.

Sang Li, sitting across from her, took a sip of tea: "Seems like yesterday, when the two of us cornered him, he had no choice but to show his cards today. It appears the buzz among those reporters is being orchestrated by someone behind him."

Lin Zhiyi thought about it carefully. Yesterday, she had cooperated with Du Qian in pretending to act, making him think he had control over her.

Now, with this new wave of slander, they were clearly banking on her compromising for the sake of her child.

But there was one thing Lin Zhiyi still couldn’t figure out.

"What exactly does the person behind him want from me?"

Gong Chen glanced at his watch: "We’re about to find out."

With someone like Du Qian, anything beyond his control would drive him into a rage.

When he discovers that no matter how many defamatory videos he posts about Lin Zhiyi and Xingxing, they’ll be blocked, the next step will be...

Ding ding ding.

Lin Zhiyi’s phone rang. It was Du Qian.

She glanced at everyone before answering the call.

On the other end, Du Qian didn’t speak right away, but his heavy breathing felt as if it might burst through the receiver. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"Du Qian."

"Do you really think you’re safe? You gave birth to someone else’s child, there’s no way Mr. Sang would want you. And as for Xingxing, does her father dare to acknowledge her? Don’t forget, he’s married! His wife is Mr. Sang’s sister! And you? You’re stuck with a child whose father is unknown and who’s sick!" Du Qian sneered cruelly.

His furious words already exposed all the underlying motives.

Lin Zhiyi’s voice was cold, yet exceptionally calm: "Du Qian, you’re disgusting."

Before Du Qian could respond, Gong Chen took her phone away.

"Doctor Du, instead of meddling in someone else’s family affairs, perhaps you should start by cleaning up your own mess."

With that, Gong Chen hung up the call.

Lin Zhiyi frowned: "The target of the person behind him is Xingxing and the Third Young Master."

In this situation, unless Gong Chen voluntarily stepped forward to acknowledge the child as his own, the label of "father unknown" would forever be stamped on Xingxing.

But Gong Chen wouldn’t acknowledge it.

At least not now.

Sang Ran wouldn’t be able to handle the shock.

Everyone fell silent instantly, presumably because they had already figured out the outcome.

Lin Zhiyi lowered her gaze, unwilling to demand anything. Worst case, she’d take Xingxing and move to another city to live.

With that thought in mind, she stood up: "I’m going to check on Xingxing. You all carry on chatting."

After Lin Zhiyi left, Sang Li lowered his tea cup and glanced at Gong Chen helplessly.

Gong Chen nodded briefly, and the two entered the study one after the other.

...

Inside the study.

Sang Li had just sat down and rubbed his temples: "You should know who it is by now, right?"

Gong Chen stood by the window, expressionless, gazing out into the distance.

"When Chen Jin mentioned Ye Feifei, I immediately knew someone was using Ye Feifei’s name to act."

Ye Feifei dared not show up even when her parents were gravely ill, so how could she appear so openly because of Lin Zhiyi?

Sang Li analyzed: "It seems someone also wants to force Ye Feifei to show herself. The only leverage Ye Feifei has is the incident from the engagement party years ago when she drugged you. But aside from us, only the person who orchestrated everything for Ye Feifei knows about that incident."

For example, Wen Qing.

But if that’s the case, there’s another issue.

Sang Li continued: "So would Wen Qing also be searching for Ye Feifei? How would Wen Qing even know that Zhiyi is here? People from her side visited my place previously but ultimately left without further pursuit, meaning she believed Zhiyi was with me. Could it be that she reads comics too?"

Evidently not possible.

Gong Chen pulled out a cigarette, flicked it twice against his palm but didn’t light it.

Then his cold gaze suddenly shifted toward Sang Li.

With just one look, Sang Li instantly realized who it was.

Sang Ran.

Sang Li smiled bitterly with resignation: "Apologies, I’ll handle the matter regarding the divorce personally."

"Mm."
