Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 776

Chapter 776: Chapter 776: Getting More and More Interesting

Lin Zhiyi spent a few minutes restoring the chat history.

The results came out, and it was still those few messages, nothing like what was in the screenshots.

"There’s nothing."

"Impossible, every day I was the one sending messages, how could there be nothing?"

Jian Xi didn’t believe it and kept refreshing.

Lin Zhiyi also found it odd, and after thinking for a moment, came up with a possibility.

"My avatar is quite ordinary. Could it be that you clicked on a similar avatar and thought it was me?"

"..."

Jian Xi’s face flushed with embarrassment.

But this kid matured early, and after a moment, regained his composure.

He reminded her quite a bit of Gong Chen.

He quickly scrolled through his friends but couldn’t find anyone with the same avatar.

Lin Zhiyi speculated, "Could it be that the other person changed their avatar at that exact moment?"

Even as she said it, she felt something was off.

Jian Xi didn’t speak and searched for the things he had said in the search bar, but not a single message surfaced.

Either he was lying and those chat records never existed.

Or the person with a similar avatar and name to Lin Zhiyi had been deleted.

Of course, Lin Zhiyi believed Jian Xi wasn’t lying.

So only the second possibility remained.

"You..."

"I didn’t delete anyone, nor did I add anyone. If there was such a person, I would certainly know."

Jian Xi had guessed what Lin Zhiyi wanted to ask.

They exchanged a look.

Lin Zhiyi pressed her lips together, and a name instantly popped into her mind.

"Did Fu Shu touch your phone?"

"I don’t know, when we’re together our phones are just placed nearby." Jian Xi said truthfully.

Lin Zhiyi had no evidence and couldn’t speak plainly.

After thinking for a moment, she asked, "Then... who advised you to come to talk to me?"

Jian Xi was startled, a surprised look in his eyes.

"Fu, Teacher Fu."

"She saw I was feeling down recently and asked me what happened, so I told her about the things on WeChat."

"She said you might be busy taking care of Xingxing and working, so it’s normal not to have time for me."

"Just now, she saw my attitude towards you and advised me to have a good chat with you."

Lin Zhiyi’s heart tightened, unsure why she felt a looming sense of danger.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

Seeing it was a call from Chen Jin, she quickly answered.

"Miss Lin, are you okay?"

"Why would I not be?" Lin Zhiyi replied, surprised.

"Didn’t you ask me to find you? Third Young Master thought something had happened to you, just entered the conference room and asked me to look for you, but I couldn’t reach your phone and couldn’t find you in the banquet hall either."

"Me, look for you? I didn’t..."

Lin Zhiyi was stunned, recalling the incident where her phone got knocked to the ground and turned off.

Her breath hitched, and she raised her voice, "Go find Third Young Master! Quickly!"

Putting down the phone, Lin Zhiyi ran outside.

Jian Xi followed along.

"Aunt, what’s going on?"

"Did you all lose contact with me after Fu Shu got close to you?" Lin Zhiyi asked.

"Seems...yes."

"Do you trust me?" Lin Zhiyi asked in return.

She knew it was odd to ask a child this.

But she had to confirm who Jian Xi trusted more.

Jian Xi looked at her seriously, "We are friends."

Lin Zhiyi smiled, "Help me figure out where Fu Shu is, contact me by phone, I’ll go find your little uncle."

"Okay."

They ran in different directions.

Lin Zhiyi ran towards the small conference room where the Jiang Family elders were.

As she approached the door, it opened just in time.

Old Master Jiang and several important guests were leaving, chatting and laughing.

But Gong Chen was not among them.

At the sound, Lin Zhiyi stopped and dashed back.

She grabbed Jiang Siyi and tried to dodge but got hit in the back by the cart.

The pain was so intense she couldn’t even cry out.

She lay stiffly on the ground for quite a while until Jiang Siyi and Jian Xi helped her up.

"Auntie, are you alright? I’m sorry, it’s all my fault."

"I’m fine, are you okay?" Lin Zhiyi asked, clutching her waist.

Jiang Siyi shook her head, tears brimming, "Auntie, it must hurt a lot, right?"

Lin Zhiyi stood up, bearing the pain, "See, I’m fine."

Only then did Jiang Siyi manage to hold back her tears.

Jian Xi watched Lin Zhiyi put on a brave face, supporting her, whispered, "Auntie, I can’t find Teacher Fu, and I find this luggage cart strange, the latch was loosened, I’ll have someone check the surveillance later."

Lin Zhiyi nodded, but upon thinking about Fu Shu being missing too,

she knew the matter wasn’t simple.

Not daring to delay any longer, she took Jian Xi’s hand, "Support me upstairs."

"Alright."

Jian Xi helped Lin Zhiyi upstairs.

Outside the elevator, they ran into Chen Jin.

Chen Jin saw Lin Zhiyi’s pained expression, stunned for a few seconds.

"Miss Lin, what happened to you?"

"Where’s Third Young Master?" Lin Zhiyi asked.

"He... he’s resting in the room after taking some stomach medicine and falling asleep." Chen Jin lowered his eyes.

"I’m going to find him."

Lin Zhiyi moved toward the room but was held back by Chen Jin.

She eyed him suspiciously, "Something wrong?"

Chen Jin pointed at her, "Walking like that looks odd. Want to rest a bit?"

Lin Zhiyi took a deep breath, realizing that walking with her twisted waist did indeed look odd.

Not wanting to worry anyone, she rubbed her bruised area.

After all, since Gong Chen had been found,

it was fine.
