Madman.
Lin Zhiyi listened to Sang Ran’s shouting and felt a surge of emotions inside.
Suddenly, she remembered what Ren Xiya had said about her mother.
Being gradually controlled while being conscious, like a small fish in a pond, raised however others saw fit.
An imaginary child, a marriage that didn’t exist, made Sang Ran willingly become a pawn.
After a while, Gong Chen and Sang Li came out of the hospital room together.
Sang Li’s expression was grim.
It seemed he still couldn’t believe his sister had become like this.
He looked helplessly at Lin Zhiyi, "Zhiyi..."
"Mr. Sang, don’t say anything, just be with her."
Lin Zhiyi knew what Sang Li wanted to say.
"I won’t see you off. I’ll make sure she signs the agreement."
Sang Li sighed slightly and turned back into the room.
"Let’s go back, Xingxing must be getting anxious."
Saying this, Gong Chen didn’t give Lin Zhiyi a chance to respond and pulled her out of the hospital.
...
Downstairs.
Old Mr. Gong watched the two people get into the car together, his face turning cold.
"Sang Ran is probably of no use anymore."
"I’ve already started reducing the medication, it’s only a matter of time now," Wen Qing said, lowering her head.
The old master glared at her, "Wen Qing, don’t make another mistake, otherwise..."
"Don’t worry, Sir. Xiao Ran listens to me the most; she’ll do anything to keep the child," Wen Qing bowed her head even lower.
Speaking of children, the old master thought of someone.
"That little girl is having surgery next week. Since Sang Ran is going to die anyway, make sure she dies with purpose. Then spread the word that it was Lin Zhiyi and the child who provoked her, let them bite each other."
"I understand."
Wen Qing nodded.
The old master closed his eyes and when he reopened them, there was a viciousness in them.
"I’ll make Gong Chen understand who truly runs this Gong family!" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
...
When they got home, Liao Yi was quietly leaving the children’s room.
Seeing the arrivals, she shushed them.
"Xingxing played until she was tired and is already asleep."
Gong Chen hadn’t seen his daughter all day and wouldn’t be able to sleep without checking on her now.
"I’ll go take a look at her."
Lin Zhiyi didn’t stop him and let him go.
As Liao Yi was about to leave, she happened to notice the dark red mark on Lin Zhiyi’s neck, made more prominent by oxidized powder.
"Didn’t you leave the house without it? Why is it more visible now?"
"Don’t even mention it," Lin Zhiyi complained, "that pink bottle foundation you gave me is useless, it can’t cover anything."
"Pink? I... that’s color-changing blush! I told you not to use it," Liao Yi explained.
"Weren’t you constantly emphasizing pink, pink?"
"I was talking to Xingxing about pink."
Only then did Lin Zhiyi realize her misunderstanding.
Remembering Lin Zhiyi wandering through the elegant banquet hall with hickey marks, Liao Yi couldn’t help but want to laugh.
Before the laughter could escape, she noticed the mismatch in color covered by the blush on her neck.
"My blush leans towards peach pink, why is your color off... did you get marked again?"
Lin Zhiyi immediately covered her neck, wishing she could disappear.
Liao Yi stifled a laugh, her curiosity piqued.
"Zhiyi, how’s Third Young Master’s kissing skill?"
Seeing Liao Yi’s face turning red with suppressed laughter, Lin Zhiyi felt even more embarrassed.
She cleared her throat and pretended to be calm, "It’s just okay, aren’t all men the same?"
Just as Liao Yi was about to laugh, a cold glance came over.
She felt a chill at her neck and turned to leave immediately.
"I’m tired, I’m going to bed. Bye-bye! Haha!"
The door quickly closed.
"..."
Lin Zhiyi didn’t pay it much mind.
But in the next second, a heavy shadow cast over the floor.
She heard a buzzing in her head.
No way?
Turning around, she was cornered by a man against the table.
"Just okay?"
"All men the same?"
"Lin Zhiyi, I underestimated you, do you have other men that I don’t know about?"
