Lin Zhiyi was indeed very nervous; she had been away from the Gong Family for too long.
She had no idea what she was going to face next.
But she didn’t want to escape anymore.
First Xingxing, then Liu He, these people never intended to let her go.
Sang Li noticed she didn’t want to talk much, and comforted her: "At someone’s request, no matter what happens, I will help you."
That someone, Gong Chen.
Lin Zhiyi turned her head to look at him and smiled: "Thank you, but since they are prepared, I can’t let them down either."
She didn’t mention Liu He’s matters.
Because she privately called Doctor Wu to understand the situation, she didn’t expect him to mention that Sang Ran was also in that hospital.
She wasn’t sure if Sang Ran was related to this matter, so she didn’t want to gossip in front of Sang Li.
Sang Li was also quite troubled by Sang Ran’s matters.
Arriving at the hotel.
The grandeur before her still slightly surprised Lin Zhiyi.
She didn’t expect the Gong Family to invite almost all the influential people in Jing City.
Sang Li also noticed something was amiss: "If it’s solely aimed at you, isn’t this scene too grand?"
Indeed.
Even if the Gong Family’s target included Liu He, Old Mr. Gong wouldn’t make such a big deal out of it.
He was someone who valued appearances extremely.
Family scandals were definitely not to be exposed in the public.
Lin Zhiyi and Sang Li exchanged glances, deciding to quietly observe the situation.
Just as the two were about to get out of the car, they realized the vehicle suddenly stopped.
Lin Zhiyi leaned against the window, her gaze fixed ahead and paused.
The blockage in front wasn’t anyone else, but Gong Chen’s car. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
Under the press’s blockade, Gong Chen got out of the car, rarely wearing a silver-gray suit.
Lin Zhiyi instinctively tightened her grip on her dress.
This suit and her dress...
Just as she was thinking, Sang Ran followed behind and got out of the car.
Wearing an identical dress to Lin Zhiyi’s, standing beside Gong Chen, though she was slender, her gaze brimmed with happy laughter.
She gradually turned her gaze towards Lin Zhiyi’s location through the camera.
The two locked eyes through the car window for a few seconds, Sang Ran softly adjusted the hem of her dress, and looked up at the man beside her.
As if declaring her territory.
Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips, a voice of apology came from beside her from Sang Li.
"Xiao Ran must have checked the dress I chose for you, I’ll have Zhou Zhao bring another one over now."
Lin Zhiyi took a deep breath: "No need, whatever I wear will be commented on. Let’s stop blocking here and go inside first."
"Okay."
Sang Li glanced at the position Sang Ran was in, restraint mixed with helplessness and anger on his face.
Zhou Zhao parked their car next to Gong Chen’s car, then got out to open the door for the two.
Many guests seeing it was Sang Li’s car suddenly remembered that almost forgotten name.
Lin Zhiyi.
Some whispered.
"I heard Lin Zhiyi’s name was on the guest list."
"She still dares to come back? After causing such a scene at the Gong Family back in the day, if I were her, I wouldn’t have such a thick skin."
Some people who had just returned from abroad didn’t recognize Lin Zhiyi.
"Who are you talking about?"
"The stepdaughter of the Gong Family’s Second Young Master, there’s a rumor, saying she secretly climbed into the Third Young Master’s bed; after he disregarded her, she hooked up with Mr. Sang."
"Really? That’s bold; everyone knows the Third Madam is the Third Young Master’s beloved."
Upon hearing this, Sang Ran slightly curled her lips.
Her peripheral vision scanned one of the reporters.
The reporter targeted the people inside the car: "Why hasn’t Mr. Sang gotten out? Is there something unspoken since he hasn’t brought his fiancé back in three years?"
The noblewomen who had just criticized Lin Zhiyi were even more unscrupulous.
"Can’t stand her pettiness; no wonder no one in the Gong Family likes her. I bet Mr. Sang is also getting tired of her demeanor; definitely not presentable."
"Now that you mention it, I’m curious, what kind of woman can enchant the Third Young Master and Mr. Sang?" Someone wondered.
"Enchant? Just a vixen; her cheap tricks can’t be compared to the Third Madam."
Sang Ran contentedly looked at Sang Li’s car.
Lin Zhiyi, why are you still not getting out of the car? Are you scared?
She sneered inwardly.
She just wanted everyone to know Lin Zhiyi was nothing but a clown mimicking her.
