Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 804

Chapter 804: Chapter 804: Am I the First to See It?

Lin Zhiyi was startled by the assistant’s words.

"Who’s going out in this, it’s not like attending an event."

"The dress’s hem isn’t exaggerated either, worn under a coat, it’s suggestively revealing, doesn’t it look better? Besides, Third Young Master..."

"Stop."

Lin Zhiyi saw her laughing slyly and knew she was overthinking again.

The assistant pursed her lips but stuffed the trench coat into Lin Zhiyi’s arms.

"Go on, go on, it’s perfect for Third Young Master to take a look and give feedback."

"..."

Lin Zhiyi thought she was too agreeable and somehow ended up wearing the dress and getting into the car.

Helplessly, she put on the trench coat, tied the belt, revealing just a sliver of the solid skirt hem.

It didn’t look excessive.

However, the fishtail position seemed uncomfortable, as the base fabric used seemed a bit prickly.

This piece is a Vic custom design.

Besides being beautiful, it needs to be modified according to the customer’s requests.

She’s not a fashion designer, her choice of fabric was too idealistic.

Looks like it needs changing.

Since she wore it, she might as well experience it to facilitate modifications.

Moments later.

The driver said, "Miss Lin, we’ve arrived at Gong Group."

After getting out of the car, Lin Zhiyi asked the driver to return first.

Then she walked into Gong Group alone.

The receptionist, upon seeing her, immediately waved.

"President Lin, you’re here."

Lin Zhiyi felt a bit embarrassed: "Don’t call me that, it feels weird. Is Third Young Master back?"

"Not weird, you were President Lin before, and you are still President Lin now. Looking for Third Young Master? I just saw Assistant Chen hurriedly heading upstairs with a pharmacy bag."

Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi grew more worried.

She placed the milk tea she brought on the table: "For you guys, I’m heading up now, the usual routine."

The receptionist shushed: "I didn’t see you."

Lin Zhiyi made an OK gesture and went straight up the stairs.

Arriving outside the top-floor office, just then Chen Jin came by holding a tray.

The tray had a cup of water and some pills.

Seeing Lin Zhiyi, he paused before speaking, but Lin Zhiyi signaled him to stay silent.

She approached and asked, "Assistant Chen, is he okay?"

Chen Jin replied, "It’s not serious, just a sore throat, so I went to get some pills. He’s been quite busy lately, but it shouldn’t be like this anymore."

Lin Zhiyi asked suspiciously, "What happened?"

"Third Young Master handed Jiang Group to the Jiang Family people, aside from some work handovers, he won’t be going to Jiang Group for now."

"Did he really hand it over?"

Lin Zhiyi initially thought Gong Chen’s words at the tasting feast were just casual remarks.

Chen Jin said as they walked, "Since Third Young Master decided, there’s no going back. The Jiang Family doesn’t trust him, and he doesn’t need to stay there."

"That’s good, he needs a proper rest. Is Gong Group alright lately?" Lin Zhiyi asked casually.

"It’s fine, unusually quiet," Chen Jin said with an ambiguous tone.

"The calm before the storm."

Chen Jin didn’t dispute.

Lin Zhiyi took the tray from Chen Jin’s hands.

"Assistant Chen, I’ll go, you go ahead with your work."

"Okay."

Lin Zhiyi carrying water and medicine knocked on the door.

"Enter."

Gong Chen’s voice was somewhat hoarse, with a nasal tone.

Sounding deep and muffled.

After Lin Zhiyi entered, Gong Chen didn’t even raise his head.

He lowered his eyes, flipping through the documents, and coughed once.

"Just leave the water."

Lin Zhiyi said nothing, approaching the desk to set down the tray.

Then she picked up the cup and pills, handing them over.

Gong Chen caught a familiar scent, lips curling upwards.

He lowered his head to take the medicine, and then, when he touched her hand, he smoothly grasped her wrist.

Gently drawing her into his embrace.

Lin Zhiyi, still holding half a cup of water, dared not move, only letting him hug her.

"How did you know it was me?" she asked curiously.

"Do you think I wouldn’t even recognize you?"

Lin Zhiyi felt secretly happy, casually lifting the cup.

"Hurry and take your medicine."

"You feed me." Gong Chen wouldn’t take the cup, only slightly leaning his face closer.

Lin Zhiyi laughed, helpless.

She laughed awkwardly.

Gong Chen said, "Then why don’t you take off your coat?"

Lin Zhiyi hesitated, but eventually stood up.

She did want Gong Chen to see her creation.

And she certainly felt shy.

But since he said so, she had no reason to hide.

Rustling sounds occurred.

Lin Zhiyi took off her trench coat and draped it over the back of the chair, then adjusted her hair.

Yet the man opposite’s attention was solely on the documents, not sparing her a glance.

She could only cough lightly.

"Certainly a lot better now, right, Third Young Master."

"Zhiyi, you want to say wh...at?"

Gong Chen raised his eyes, stunned.

Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips: "Does it look good?"

With a snap, Gong Chen closed the documents, stood up, and walked before Lin Zhiyi.

"You just came here dressed like this?"

"Mm, doesn’t it look good? Actually, I think it looks pretty good; although the fabric choice wasn’t great, the design definitely accentuates a woman’s curves."

As she spoke, she pinched her waist.

"The gem pairing on the corset too was something I specially matched..."

Her fingertips traced from waistline upwards, skimming past the chest.

In Gong Chen’s eyes, it was another scene.

The woman under the slanted sun emitted a gemstone’s brilliance.

Her skin was white and bright like peeled lychee flesh.

Changing her posture as she introduced.

The skirt hem swayed in the light, while her straight legs appeared indistinct.

Fingertips grazed the gem, yet attracted Gong Chen’s heart.

She was completely unaware.

Gong Chen admitted his thoughts were a bit vulgar.

But he was a vulgar man after all.

Lin Zhiyi continued her introduction when suddenly the sunlight before her was blocked.

The man’s figure encompassed her before the desk.

"Zhiyi, what I meant was am I the first one to see this?"
