Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight-Chapter 156 Do You Know Everything?

Lin Zhiyi was trapped on the man’s thighs, the large palm around her waist resting precisely on the patch of skin her short top couldn’t cover.

The warm fingertips rubbed heavily against her as if to punish, soon leaving a reddish mark around her waist.

"Wearing so little? Aren’t you afraid of the cold?"

Her breath hitched, she struggled to whisper, "None of your business, let go."

Remembering how he had deliberately put her in danger just moments before, anger swelled in her eyes.

Gong Chen’s lips curved upwards slightly as he grabbed her fist, opened her palm, and pinched the reddened nail marks in the center of her hand.

"If I don’t take care of you, it’ll be me you’re pinching next."

"You... So you think it’s funny to do this to me over and over? What do you want to do to humiliate me this time? Bow and scrape to your clients like a hostess?"

Lin Zhiyi’s pent-up emotions surged, pulling her hand back, not feeling the pain as she clenched it tight again.

Gong Chen looked down at her, his eyes a swirling storm of snow that quickly returned to calm.

It seemed nothing could make his stoic heart fluctuate.

"Humiliate? If I really wanted to humiliate you, you might not be up for it."

His gaze signaled her.

Lin Zhiyi looked up, and across from them, a man and a woman were now huddled together.

The woman was very accommodating, feeding the client a few sips of wine before starting her tricks, taking off his gemstone ring and slipping it down her neckline.

"Boss, if you can’t find it, it’s mine, okay?"

"Is that so? Then I’d better search thoroughly."

Smiling, the client reached into the woman’s neckline, and after some playful struggle, he didn’t find the ring but merrily took a men’s bracelet instead.

It must have been worth a six-figure sum.

She really deserved to earn this money.

Suddenly, the man’s heavy breath mixed with the heat of the strong liquor brushed past Lin Zhiyi’s ear.

"Could you do that?"

"..."

Lin Zhiyi’s cheeks flushed red in an instant, subconsciously clutching at her neckline.

Feeling the tension in the man’s thighs under her, she wanted to stand up but was pressed down firmly by him.

The warmth of the man’s thighs through his trousers pressed against her skin, and even though she appeared calm on the surface, her eyes were filled with panic.

Unable to resist teasing her, Gong Chen’s fingertips wandered to the waist of her skirt: "Could you?"

Lin Zhiyi glared at him, "You, you bastard!"

Her overly naive reaction seemed out of place in the private room.

Gong Chen lit a cigarette, watching her through the thin smoke.

The girl on his legs, like a tender willow branch, curvy in all the right places, was a handful in his palm, her fair legs wrapped in a halo under the light, dazzling to behold.

Even the client was staring straight at her.

Narrowing his eyes, Gong Chen stubbed out the cigarette forcefully, tightening his grip on her waist a notch.

Like guarding his prey from being touched by others.

Still, the client couldn’t help but stand and walk over to Lin Zhiyi.

"This woman, why won’t you play along? Shall I teach you?"

"Come, have a drink to relax, don’t spoil Third Young Master’s mood."

With that, he handed a glass of strong liquor to Lin Zhiyi.

His gaze roaming freely, she felt a chill across her body.

Lin Zhiyi’s clenched fist tightened and loosened, her mind racing for a plan.

She couldn’t expose herself, nor could she flatter men like that woman did.

As the standoff continued, the client squinted his eyes, his gaze wandering over Lin Zhiyi.

"What’s with that reaction? You don’t seem like someone from a bar, could it be..."

At his words, Lin Zhiyi’s blood churned, fearing the waiting server by the door would notice something.

Then she felt a man’s palm on her back, pushing her lightly.

A cold, impatient voice followed, "Overact and you’ve gone too far, drink it."

Lin Zhiyi looked at him incredulously, her nostrils flaring as she breathed hard to suppress her trembling body.

"Fine."

She received the wine with a bitter smile, tilted her head back, and poured it into her mouth. After all, it wasn’t the first time she had been humiliated.

Before the fiery liquid could even reach her throat, a hand on her back gently pulled her, and her body was ensnared against the man’s chest.

The hand she had just raised was wrapped around his neck by the man as he pressed down with a surging kiss, greedily seeking the strong alcohol in her mouth.

Even after the alcohol was gone, his kiss continued to invade her mouth crazily.

It was only when Lin Zhiyi ran out of breath that he finally let her go.

His fingertips pressed on her lips, preventing her from speaking, he said hoarsely, "Isn’t this quite the routine?"

Lin Zhiyi’s hand resting on his shoulder pinched him hard to signal him to let go.

It didn’t bother him, he took her hand and held it gently in his palm, kneading softly.

Lin Zhiyi cursed him silently as a madman!

He had actually done this in front of everyone...

Gong Chen was indifferent, he looked at the client with an unchanged expression, "Is there anything else?"

The client forced a smile, "No."

"If there’s nothing else, sign the contract." Gong Chen glanced at Chen Jin who stood silently in the background.

Chen Jin opened the contract, pressed down with a pen, and handed it over.

The client glanced briefly at the contract and, with the woman beside him in his arms, said with a beaming smile, "Third Young Master, talking business now is such a mood-killer. The old man isn’t in a hurry, is he?"

Relying on his acquaintance with the old man, he dallied, plainly trying to push the price higher.

Gong Chen silently stood up, holding Lin Zhiyi’s hand, and said indifferently, "He isn’t in a hurry, but the one making a fool of themselves at Chen Group isn’t me."

The client was startled, pushed away the woman beside him, and immediately realized this was a trap, a mix of courtesy and coercion.

Behind Gong Chen’s back, he had also invested a lot of money in Chen Group. Now, not only had he lost his investment, but he also faced the accusation of backstabbing Gong Chen.

"Third Young Master, about Chen Group..."

"You don’t need to explain to me. It’s up to you to sign or not."

"Sign, I’ll sign."

He picked up the pen, flipped to the last page, and, seeing the price had been reduced by thirty percent, he still gritted his teeth and signed.

He didn’t dare openly offend Gong Chen.

Once they stepped out of the private room, Lin Zhiyi shook off Gong Chen’s hand with force and turned to leave.

Gong Chen grabbed her wrist with one hand and her waist with the other, pinning her body against the corner of the wall.

"Why did you come here dressed like this?"

"What’s the matter? Are you worried that I might harm your fiancée again? She’s so pure and flawless, why would she come to a place like this? Even if I was secretly meeting some random man, it couldn’t possibly be her. You can rest assured."

Lin Zhiyi spoke coldly, every word and sentence a thorn.

"Lin Zhiyi, you’re drunk. Stop talking nonsense and go home."

Gong Chen’s eyes were unreadable, and he offered no rebuttal to her words.

In that second, Lin Zhiyi confirmed all the thoughts in her heart.

The avant-garde and brilliant lights around her fell on her face, making it look even paler and hollower.

Her body shook uncontrollably; her nerves, already tight to the breaking point, suddenly snapped.

When she spoke again, her voice trembled softly, "So, you knew everything?"

"I don’t know," Gong Chen denied.

Lin Zhiyi snorted lightly, leaning against the wall to keep from collapsing, her gaze dimming little by little.

"Such deep love."

What did that past life, this present, count for in the end?

What did her Xingxing count for?

Why must she be dragged into their love affair?

"I really hate you so much, can you let me go? Just let go!"

Lin Zhiyi spoke with great force, yet the words that reached her lips were so powerless.

Accompanied by the cold on her face, her voice faded, and her whole being numbed, losing all strength.

Gong Chen’s hand didn’t loosen, tightening and tightening as if he wanted to twist her wrist off, until after a long silence, he released her abruptly, regaining his usual indifference.

At that moment, Liu Xinna’s voice came from the other end of the corridor.

"What do you mean? Why won’t you let me in? Do you know who I am? I must get in today!"

Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi sneered, "Uncle, it looks like your fiancée is in trouble now."
