Chapter 92: Chapter 92 They Have Issues Chapter 92 -92 They Have Issues Lin Zhiyi was startled by the unfamiliar Gong Chen, her breathing became hurried as she tried to push him away.
But he caught her wrist, his fingers caressing a patch of skin on her wrist that was a different color.
It was skin that had grown after a burn injury.
âBetter?â His deep voice carried a hint of laziness.
Lin Zhiyi turned her face away, not wanting to speak.
Gong Chen raised his hand to turn her face back toward him, pinching it neither too harshly nor too gently.
âCan you speak properly?â
âUncle, youâve forgottenâI am as stubborn as a donkey,â Lin Zhiyi said irritably.
Gong Chen rested his hands on the desk, tilted his head down slightly, and let out a subdued chuckle.
âWhen I speak seriously, you donât listen. But you clearly remember the things said in passing.â
This time, his tone was very light, and even carried an ease he had never shown before.
Lin Zhiyi didnât know how to respondâjust moments ago, theyâd been at each otherâs throats.
She lowered her gaze, not wanting to engage with Gong Chen.
However, Gong Chen didnât want to let her off so easily. He leaned in close, his fingertips brushing the corners of her lips, approaching her with an aggressive intent.
âLin Zhiyi, Gong Yan...â
Lin Zhiyi didnât avoid him but looked back at him with a negotiating tone, âUncle, if you mess around again, I donât mind telling the media about your other women.â
âOh? Other women?â Gong Chen paused, looking at her calmly.
âFor that woman, you customized a dress. Even Song Wanqiu didnât get such special treatment. Must have been tough being so busy,â Lin Zhiyi sneered.
Gong Chen half-closed his eyes, his gaze sweeping over Lin Zhiyi, understanding her intentions.
Suddenly, with a cool voice, he said, âYouâve said so muchâwhat are your conditions?â
Lin Zhiyi had only one thing to say: âStop making things difficult for Big Brother.â
âUsing these threats just for him? Lin Zhiyi, you really are something.â
Gong Chen stepped back, a dangerous glint in his eyes.
Lin Zhiyi stood straight, her hands behind her back clenching the corner of the table tightly.
Gong Chen didnât deny the existence of the other woman.
She suddenly felt that her former self was not just pathetic and laughableâher life was merely a sacrificial pawn.
A wave of pain washed over her, her fingernails cracked, and although the pain shot through her fingers, she had long since become numb to it.
Gong Chen fell silent for a moment, then his eyes suddenly darkened, âDidnât you ask which woman it was?â
Lin Zhiyi thought he was testing her: âUncle, rest assured, I wonât ask too much. I donât care who that woman is; I just hope you donât drag me into this.â
âDonât care?â Gong Chen scoffed coldly, âCan you truly not see?â
âWhat...â Lin Zhiyi was about to ask what he meant when the dormitory door was rudely opened.
The voice was heard before the person was seen.
âLin Zhiyi! Why havenât you left yet?â
âIt seems weâll have to help you move, thenâTh... Third Young Master!â
It was the director.
Three men in security uniforms followed him, but Lin Zhiyi had never seen them before.
Lin Zhiyi kept an eye out and observed the security guards, their tattoos visible at the collar giving them away.
Although being a security guard was not a very high position, they often appeared on campus, and their overall image was very important.
The school didnât allow them to have tattoos.
And if they did, they certainly wouldnât be allowed in such an obvious spot.
Judging from that one guardâs neck, he probably had tattoos from his shoulders to his arms, which would be exposed in the summer.
They were definitely not campus security.
Gong Chen also noticed this, but he discerned it from the way these men walked.
Their frivolous steps were deliberately light.
They hadnât been doing stealthy deeds for nothing.
Breaking into a single womanâs dormitoryâno one dared to think about what might happen next.
Gong Chen blocked the advancing director: âWhatâs the matter?â
The director immediately adopted a servile attitude: âThird Young Master, this building is being renovated for the incoming freshmen, and only Lin Zhiyi has been dawdling and not moved out. I empathize with her as a woman finding moving difficult, so I specially brought three security guards to help out.â
âThird Young Master, you donât have to trouble yourself. I will have someone help Lin Zhiyi.â
His face was full of eagerness to please, yet he dared not meet Gong Chenâs eyes, especially when speaking about the three security guards, his voice faltering.
It seems he knew the identity of the three security guards.
But why would he do this?
Just as Lin Zhiyi was about to question the identity of the three guards, Gong Chen stopped her.
Interrupting, he said, âMy Gong familyâs second young mistress doesnât need othersâ help.â
âWhat? Second young mistress?â The directorâs eyes nearly popped out.
He frantically looked at the three security guards.
The guards shrank back a bit and quickly exited the dormitory.
Lin Zhiyi frowned, wanting to chase after them, but Gong Chen held onto her wrist.
âLetâs go.â
Without giving her a chance to respond, Gong Chen took Lin Zhiyi out of the dormitory.
When they got to the car, Lin Zhiyi shook off his hand.
âWhy didnât you let me ask? Those three men are a problem.â
âGet in the car.â
âYou know whoâs behind this, right?â Lin Zhiyi challenged.
âI said get in the car.â
Gong Chen opened the car door directly.
Lin Zhiyi was well aware that she was no match for Gong Chen. Now that the three security guards were gone, even if she sought out the director, she wouldnât be able to find out anything.
She had no evidence.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Zhiyi got into the car and followed Gong Chen as they drove away.
...
After sending away the three men, the director dialed a number.
âMiss Song, it wasnât successful. Third Young Master was unexpectedly there, too.â
âHe was there too! Did Third Young Master catch on to anything?â Song Wanqiuâs voice sharpened.
âHe probably didnât, but Third Young Master called Lin Zhiyi the Gong familyâs second young mistress. Miss Song, why didnât you tell me?â The directorâs tone carried a note of rebuke.
âWhat second young mistress she is! You canât handle your own task, and now you blame me!â
Song Wanqiu hung up the phone in a rage, her twisted face making even her mother, Qin Shuang, frown.
Qin Shuang reminded her, âBe mindful of your image. After all, you are a public figure. What would it look like if this gets out?â
âMother! What image do I have now? This morning, a dog leash factory wanted me to endorse them on my account backstage! And now, Third Young Master doesnât come to see me first thing in the morning but instead runs off to help Lin Zhiyi move her dorm. How do you expect me to bear this?â
âIf the director had been a little quicker, Lin Zhiyi would definitely have been humiliated by those three security guards by now. Iâd like to see how she takes pride then!â
Song Wanqiu angrily smashed all the teaware on the table.
After venting, she suddenly calmed down.
âMother, Third Young Master is so smart. He didnât figure anything out, did he?â
Qin Shuang smiled lazily, âNo, even if he has figured something out, he wonât say anything.â
âWhy?â
âI heard that Third Young Master and President Yuâs collaborator this time is someone very influential. But the collaborator has very strict requirements, especially regarding avoiding negative news. Since you are Third Young Masterâs fiancée, he will definitely protect you. Moreover... the old master wouldnât allow any slip-ups.â
Qin Shuang patted her hand reassuringly.
Hearing this, Song Wanqiu immediately revealed a vicious smile.
âMother, based on what you said, will Third Young Master always take my side now?â
âOf course.â
âThatâs good then.â
