Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 805

Chapter 805: Chapter 805: The Other Side Has What They Want

Gong Chen’s voice was raspy, restrained, and rich.

It slipped into Lin Zhiyi’s ear, suddenly arousing a feeling of itchiness.

Only then did Lin Zhiyi understand the meaning behind his words.

Her hand was pointing at the largest gem on her chest, as if deliberately.

She immediately dropped her hand, but before she could explain, she was held captive by Gong Chen.

"Hmm?"

He stared at her, his voice very light and soft.

Lin Zhiyi nodded as if enchanted.

"Hmm."

"I just wanted to ask for your opinion..."

The more she spoke, the quieter she became, feeling she was making things worse.

With his arms outstretched on the table, Gong Chen leaned slightly forward.

"Very beautiful, the jewelry is beautiful, and so are you."

"Really? Then I should be able to sell it for a good amount of money this time... Ugh... What are you doing?"

"What do you think? I’m no gentleman."

"You... Don’t pull..."

Lin Zhiyi’s resistance was ineffective, as Gong Chen directly carried her into the lounge.

It wasn’t until the sun had set that the room’s heat gradually subsided.

Lin Zhiyi looked at the dress on the floor and frowned.

At this moment, an assistant sent a message.

"Boss! The jewel set you’re wearing has been sold, has someone seen you?"

Lin Zhiyi was confused.

"Who bought it?"

The assistant didn’t answer immediately, seemingly checking.

"Third Young Master."

Then the assistant sent a laughing emoji.

Lin Zhiyi stared at her phone, hearing the sound of the bathroom door opening behind her.

She tightened her bathrobe and turned to look.

The man, wrapped in a towel, was drying his hair.

Lin Zhiyi asked, "Did you buy the dress?"

"Hmm."

"Why? It’s just a sample, the custom order would be tailored to the customer’s measurements."

Lin Zhiyi thought Gong Chen was worried the dress, having been worn, wouldn’t sell.

So he paid for it on her behalf.

Gong Chen put down the towel and flicked his hair off his forehead.

He leaned down.

"I think we might need this dress in the future, and it suits you very well. I don’t want anyone else to wear the same as you."

"Need it?" Lin Zhiyi’s cheeks were burning.

Gong Chen smiled, turned around, and poured a glass of warm water.

"Have some water, and we’ll go back for dinner later."

"Hmm."

Lin Zhiyi took the water and then heard the phone vibrate.

Gong Chen picked up the phone on the table and answered.

"Chen Jin."

"Did you find out? Who?"

Gong Chen’s expression didn’t look quite right.

"However, Gu Yingxi seems to have remained married for her daughter’s sake, so under these circumstances, Fu Shu wearing Gu Yingxi’s wedding ring to force Gu to divorce isn’t impossible."

Lin Zhiyi was a little surprised.

"Given the ring was taken by Fu Shu and Gu Yingxi divorced, why is Fu Shu back, and she’s clearly single, otherwise she wouldn’t agree to Grandpa Jiang’s ridiculous things."

"Indeed it’s strange. They separated before marriage because of some issue, considered a family disgrace, the opposite side covered it up, and Chen Jin couldn’t find out, but one thing is certain, this ex-boyfriend won’t help Fu Shu."

Gong Chen looked at Lin Zhiyi with certainty.

Lin Zhiyi looked at him, then back at the phone.

"Third Young Master, are you suggesting Gu Yingxi helped Fu Shu? Fu Shu caused Gu’s divorce and comeback, starting from scratch, she’d help Fu Shu? Is she crazy?"

On the sofa next to Gong Chen, his hand on the table’s cup, fingertips sliding along the rim.

Between breaths, the abdominal muscles were tense, creating an exceptionally captivating picture.

He said blandly, "Fu Shu was unconcerned about having an unrelated child, showing extreme means, yet competing with Gu Yingxi so long, Gu ended up with a huge alimony divorce and a return home."

Upon hearing, Lin Zhiyi suddenly understood.

"Fu Shu didn’t hit Gu Yingxi hard. She only wanted that man. Gu Yingxi must know... But, this reason is somewhat far-fetched."

The human heart is unpredictable.

Gu Yingxi doesn’t seem simple either.

Not derogatory.

Initially knowing she divorced because her husband cheated, Lin Zhiyi admired her.

Abroad with a child, resolute divorce to restart requires tremendous courage.

But once home, attaching herself to Li Huan was rather inexplicable.

Seeing her still stuck, Gong Chen took a sip of water and continued, "Think differently, regardless of the reason Gu Yingxi helped Fu Shu, if she did, does this path work?"

"It does, Gu is a doctor, her friends mostly doctors too, spanning hospitals in Jing City, surely have the means, quickest to aid Fu Shu, while never leading to Gu Yingxi."

Still... there must be some reasonable explanation, right?

Gong Chen glanced at her: "Then consider interests, the only way to turn foes into friends is if the other party has something you want."
