Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight-Chapter 154 A Pretentious Couple

Lin Zhiyi had never been to a nightclub before, so to avoid standing out, she specifically learned to apply smoky makeup from the internet and bought a set of the most common "spicy girl" outfits: a halter top and an ultra-short pleated skirt. It was said to be the best-selling "spicy girl" outfit online. In this attire, she wouldn’t be too noticeable or be recognized. Lin Zhiyi got dressed and took a taxi to the nightclub.

To her surprise, as soon as she got out of the vehicle, she attracted everyone’s attention around her. She was slightly stunned, and her first reaction was, "Could it be that I am overdressed?" Everyone says that the men and women who go to nightclubs are always fashionable. Wouldn’t her outfit seem too ordinary?

It wasn’t until she walked towards the nightclub entrance—amid a chorus of whistles—that she realized what these stares meant. Lin Zhiyi had read a first-timer’s guide to nightclubs on the internet. The first rule was not to let anyone realize it’s your first visit, otherwise, you become an easy target. Her aim today was to keep a low profile.

Therefore, she rolled her eyes at the men whistling at her and turned to walk away. The second rule was to be aloof; most men only talked big, and seeing an aloof woman made them think she wouldn’t be easy to approach, usually deterring them from further harassment.

Sure enough, most of the men just shrugged and walked away. Lin Zhiyi silently breathed a sigh of relief and headed towards the nightclub. While passing by the driveway, she completely failed to notice one of the numerous luxury cars.

Inside the car, Li Huan glanced at the time. "Go in, your client should be arriving soon. Don’t worry, I’m the boss after all. I will definitely arrange everything to your client’s satisfaction," he said.

Gong Chen grunted, pinched out the cigarette in his hand, and prepared to get out of the car. Suddenly, Li Huan grabbed him, his gaze following the figure in front of the car.

"Is she... your little niece?"

The silhouette in front of them was simply a vision catcher. Dressed in a denim spicy girl outfit with long curly hair cascading down a smooth back, her eyebrows and eyes slightly upturned. Against the backdrop of the dazzling nightclub lights, she appeared like an utterly stunning elf, bewitchingly enchanting.

Even though Gong Chen was right beside him, Li Huan still couldn’t help staring fixedly.

"Is she beautiful?"

"Beautiful... I didn’t see clearly," Li Huan, sensing a chill in the voice beside him, quickly corrected himself and redirected his attention.

"Let’s go," Gong Chen turned and got out of the car.

Li Huan followed closely: "Aren’t you going to check on her?"

Gong Chen adjusted the scarf around his neck: "No rush."

Though appearing calm, Li Huan shivered, feeling a pervading coldness encircling them.

...

After entering the nightclub, Lin Zhiyi made her way to an unremarkable corner that still offered a clear view of the entrance. To hold her spot without delaying her plans, she ordered a fruit wine with a very low alcohol content.

Taking a sip, she opened the photo of Liu Xinna on her phone. From her eyes, it was evident that Liu Xinna was a woman with a distinct personality. Outspoken and spoiled, even her disdainful gaze seemed too lazy to hide. It’s no wonder that Mr. Liu’s first action after getting promoted was to prohibit Xinna from coming out to indulge in fun. Liu Xinna was undoubtedly Mr. Liu’s biggest trump card.

In her past life, Lin Zhiyi had no contact with Liu Xinna. However, she and Xingxing’s plight, especially the fact that Xingxing was a matching donor for Song Wanqiu’s son, involved Liu Xinna as well.

These past few days, she had diligently recalled the possibilities of Liu Xinna getting her hands on Xingxing’s samples. Gong Chen had always been worried about her and Xingxing harming Song Wanqiu and his son, thus their surveillance was extremely strict.

Li Huan couldn’t even meet them without them being sick or injured. Except for one thing – the school health check-up. It was related to Xingxing’s student records, so it was compulsory. Although the teachers had always mentioned that the health data would be kept confidential, with Liu Xinna’s background, obtaining Xingxing’s medical data wouldn’t be difficult.

So today, whether it was Song Wanqiu and Li Huan or Liu Xinna, she wouldn’t let them off. She was indeed curious to see if Xinna would continue supporting Song Wanqiu once she saw that the person she fancied and her good friend were together.

As Zhiyi pondered, the music suddenly became extra fiery.

A woman wearing a mask stepped onto the stage and began to dance passionately, her figure so fine that her dancing was exceptionally vigorous.

The whistles and shouts from the audience were incessant.

And then, with the music surrounding her, the woman walked step by step toward a certain man in the audience.

Finally, she flung off her mask and fell into the man’s arms.

Because there were so many people around, Lin Zhiyi couldn’t clearly make out the faces of the man and woman.

But when the man reached out to embrace the woman, his wristwatch was exposed under the stage lights.

LH.

The initials, put together with broken diamonds, shone exceptionally bright, and Lin Zhiyi recognized them immediately.

Li Huan!

Then this woman must be Liu Xinna!

Lin Zhiyi had never expected Miss Liu, in order to please a man, would actually perform a passionate dance on stage.

She put away her phone and, holding her drink, used the crowd to get closer to Li Huan’s booth.

As expected of a boss, Li Huan had the best spot in the entire bar, not only offering an excellent view of everything on stage but also allowing him to enjoy the dancing of the men and women in the dance floor.

Lin Zhiyi glanced at the booth.

Li Huan was dressed in all black, his black shirt casual and unbuttoned significantly, revealing much of his chest.

Liu Xinna sat on his lap, tapping his chest lightly with a glass.

"Jerk, you don’t even reply to my messages."

"Didn’t I come to find you? Huh?"

Li Huan stared at Liu Xinna, slowly lowered his head to take the glass she had drunk from, bit the edge of the glass, and tilted his head back to down the remaining drink.

His rogue handsome demeanor had Liu Xinna gazing with eyes brimming with affection.

At that moment, a gentle voice sounded next to them.

"Xinna, you know he is a doctor, unreachable when he’s busy. It’s only when you call him that he shows his face. Think about it, isn’t it always when you’re here that he comes?"

It was none other than Song Wanqiu speaking.

She looked at Liu Xinna with a gentle laugh, though her eyes did not reflect the smile.

Instead, taking advantage of Liu Xinna’s moment of lowering her head to pour the drink, she exchanged suggestive glances with Li Huan.

Li Huan’s gaze carried a hint of reproach, but more so desire.

A second later, Liu Xinna leaned into Li Huan’s embrace, whispering near his lips, "Is what Wanqiu said true?"

Li Huan did not directly answer, but neither did he reject Liu Xinna’s closeness. Their eyes met, almost touching lips.

"What do you think?"

Liu Xinna was delighted, about to kiss him when Li Huan took a piece of fruit and brought it to her lips.

"Your favorite, I had the kitchen prepare it especially for you. Like it?"

"Mhm."

Liu Xinna smiled, opening her mouth to bite the fruit fed by Li Huan’s own hands.

Their friends around began to tease, while Song Wanqiu held her juice and drank quietly, her eyes occasionally lingering on Li Huan.

Her innocent and clear eyes appeared tearful, emotional, slightly jealous, and somewhat resentful.

Yet Lin Zhiyi distinctly remembered Song Wanqiu’s casual attitude towards Li Huan, uninterested in being more than bed partners, so why did she still present an appearance of reluctance?

Soon, Lin Zhiyi understood Wanqiu’s game.

Song Wanqiu put down her glass and slowly stood up.

"You two enjoy yourselves; I’ll go to the restroom."

Liu Xinna obviously took Song Wanqiu as a close sister; hearing the teasing, she felt somewhat embarrassed and flicked a candy in her direction.

"Are you making fun of me again? Aren’t you always boasting about Third Young Master?"

"I can’t win with you, I’m not talking anymore."

Pretending to be angry, Song Wanqiu turned away, her peripheral vision catching Li Huan before she left.

Li Huan continued to drink with Liu Xinna, then affectionately petted her head, "I have clients to greet, behave and wait for me."

The daring Liu Xinna, who had just danced boldly, now sat demurely on a side seat, her face a blend of joy and shyness.

Meanwhile, Lin Zhiyi observed Li Huan, after leaving, picked up a towel from a waiter’s tray, fervently wiped his hands, and directly threw the towel into the trash.

Indeed, a man’s deep affection was all an act to move you to tears.

Seeing Li Huan turn towards the direction Song Wanqiu had left, Lin Zhiyi immediately put down her drink and quietly followed...
