Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight-Chapter 285 She Just Wants It Pure

"Who do you think this is?"

As soon as Old Mr. Gong’s voice fell, the bodyguard escorted Liu He into the room.

Liu He was pushed to the edge of the bed, and Lin Zhiyi hurriedly got out of bed to help her up.

Before the two could stabilize, Wen Qing charged over and yanked open Liu He’s collar.

"Look, this is our Second Madam, still bearing the marks of another man, no wonder she hides; I wouldn’t have the face to show myself either."

Liu He struggled fiercely, but as her wounds had just healed, she was no match for Wen Qing.

It was Lin Zhiyi who helped her pull the collar back and fastened it again.

Humiliation was written all over Liu He’s face, her eyes red with tears, "Wen Qing, you’ve gone too far."

Wen Qing scoffed, "I’ve gone too far? I wouldn’t go looking for a young man. Can you deny that this isn’t you in the photo?"

She said, holding up the embarrassing photo.

Liu He glanced at it and bit her lip hard, unable to retort.

"So you admit it," Wen Qing said with a sad expression, but her eyes gleamed with victory, "I really feel sorry for the Second Young Master for marrying a woman like you."

"Then who does President Wen think is worthy?" Lin Zhiyi retorted rudely.

"Damn it!" Old Mr. Gong glared at her, his eyes emanating unquestionable authority, "Is this the upbringing you received? Our Gong Family cannot afford this shame; you and your mother get out! Let the second son and her finalize the divorce another day."

Hearing divorce, Liu He burst into tears, unsure how to explain herself.

Her whole being seemed nailed to a pillar of shame, turning instantly pale.

Lin Zhiyi hugged her, about to retort, when a harsh, cold voice sounded at the door.

"Since when did the divorce need someone else’s decision?"

Hearing this, everyone instinctively made way.

Sang Ran walked in with Gong Chen.

Gong Chen sat directly in the corner on the sofa, where the light was dim, forever obscuring his expression.

He lowered his head and lit a cigarette, the smoke swirling around, making his face even more indistinct.

But even without seeing his face, the icy, dangerous aura around him was enough to deter everyone.

People craned their necks, seemingly waiting for him to speak.

Old Mr. Gong stood with his hands behind his back, squinting toward Gong Chen, "What’s your take? You’re soon to be the head of the family; don’t disappoint the elders in dealing with this matter."

Wen Qing’s eyes shifted meaningfully, "How strange, the Second Madam privately mingling with a young man, and I heard from Mrs. He that Lin Zhiyi voluntarily agreed to marry He Yao, who turns out to be violent. The taste of this mother and daughter is really..."

Gong Chen smoked, glancing at Wen Qing, causing her to stiffen and halt her words.

But she had achieved her goal, everyone’s gaze toward the mother and daughter filled with disdain.

Sang Ran, sensing the awkwardness, moderated, "Old Mr. Gong, aunt, this is a private matter for the Second Young Master and his wife; no matter what we think, we should wait for them to sort it out first."

She finished, looking intently at Gong Chen.

Gong Chen took a puff of his cigarette and hummed lightly.

"Let’s wait for the second brother to return and decide."

Everyone nodded in agreement; family disgrace should not be aired publicly; closing the door and resolving it seemed the best approach.

Just as everyone was accepting this outcome, Lin Zhiyi stepped in front of Liu He, scoffing coldly,

"So what? So many people coming in to accuse, isn’t Third Young Master going to verify anything?"

"My mom hasn’t divorced my uncle yet; she’s still the Gong Family’s Second Madam. An outsider mocks and indirectly criticizes but you all suddenly become tolerant like a big family."

"Since when has the Gong Family been afraid of the Wen Family? Could there be some unspeakable ties?"

Lin Zhiyi swept her cold gaze over those present.

Immediately, Wen Qing’s face turned ashen, pointing at the photo, "Lin Zhiyi, even if you want to quibble, the photo doesn’t lie. It clearly records your mom’s actions with the young man, don’t forget the marks on her body."

With that said,

Lin Zhiyi lifted her head to ask the crowd, "Do you believe her? Or do you believe in my mom and the Second Young Master’s relationship?"

They didn’t speak, evidently trusting Wen Qing more.

Wen Qing looked triumphantly at the mother and daughter, as if their defeat was already determined.

She could stir up trouble in front of the Gong Family due to whom?

Lin Zhiyi looked at Li Huan self-deprecatingly, after a brief exchange of looks, Li Huan stared intently at Gong Chen, as if hoping for something.

As time ticked away, his expression became increasingly difficult to look at.

Finally, he pursed his lips and glanced at Lin Zhiyi with some complexity.

Little did he know, Lin Zhiyi had long grown accustomed to Gong Chen’s indifference and silence.

Gong Chen couldn’t, and wouldn’t help her, even if it only required him to stand up and say a few words to prove it.

Humans are complex, and so are emotions.

Yet all she wanted was something pure.

Lin Zhiyi, no longer holding back, said bluntly, "If that’s the case, then please, President Wen, provide more evidence to prove the reliability of the source of your photos, otherwise, I have the right to believe you fabricated them."

Wen Qing clearly did not expect Lin Zhiyi to be so tough.

She said displeased, "Then what evidence do you have to prove your mother’s innocence?"

"Unfortunately, I really do have some."

Lin Zhiyi took out a medical report from the drawer and threw it in front of Wen Qing.

"The first day my mother had the incident, I reported it to the police, and this is the comprehensive medical report conducted with police accompaniment."

"It states that my mother was beaten multiple times all over her body and had remnants of a sedative in her blood."

"The most crucial point is that she didn’t have any sexual activity, so the direction of the police case is intentional injury. That’s no minor charge."

"So, President Wen, how are you going to prove that the young man in the photo was involved in that kind of activity with my mom, and it wasn’t just the young man beating her up? Unless there is a video."

"But why would a video threatening someone else be sent to you? Threatening the Gong Family could surely fetch more money?"

As Lin Zhiyi spoke, she slammed the case document on the table.

Wen Qing’s eyes widened, and she exclaimed shrilly, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Lin Zhiyi responded with a cold laugh, "If you don’t believe it, why not ask the young man himself?"

The next second, the least likely person appeared.

Gong Shiyan and the young man.

Wen Qing was so shocked she dropped the report in her hands.

"People learn from their mistakes; how could they easily let someone destroy the evidence? What was destroyed was just an eye shielding technique, I was purely trying to find the person involved."

Lin Zhiyi smiled and looked towards the corner; the person hidden in the misty haze there was staring at her with an unknown expression.

But none of that mattered. freёnovelkiss.com

Gong Chen used her, and she used Gong Chen, quite fairly.

Only unknowingly, they had already reached this kind of confrontation.

Gong Shiyan directly pushed the young man in front of Wen Qing.

The young man, having never seen such a scene before, immediately knelt and begged for mercy, "It wasn’t me, it was President Wen, she made me frame the Second Madam."

"Nonsense! I don’t even know you! Did Lin Zhiyi and Liu He pay you to say this?" Wen Qing glared furiously at the young man.

The young man suddenly dared not speak.

At this moment, Gong Shiyan said coldly, "Speak clearly! It’s not your turn to be afraid of an outsider here!"

Wen Qing’s face was a mix of blue and red as she yelled, "Gong Shiyan! Do you really have to be like this?"

Gong Shiyan stated bluntly, "Wen Qing, the last thing you should have done was target my wife and daughter."

"Wife? Daughter?" Wen Qing snorted coldly and pointed at Lin Zhiyi, "Your precious daughter wanted to marry a pervert willingly. What kind of good person can she be?"

Lin Zhiyi smiled subtly, "President Wen, when did I agree to marry He Yao?"

"Trying to renege? Unfortunately, I’ve also invited Mrs. He here, just so everyone can see your true colors." Wen Qing clapped her hands.

Mrs. He came in looking haggard.

She stared at Lin Zhiyi, gritting her teeth, "You ruined my son! You harbinger of disaster!"

Lin Zhiyi stood tall and countered calmly, "Mrs. He, you can’t just say anything you like; it was the He Family’s four generations of singular inheritance that harmed your son, not me. Moreover, when did I agree to marry He Yao?"

"It’s just..."

Mrs. He tried to respond, but couldn’t recall Lin Zhiyi ever saying she agreed.

"Mrs. He, I’ve always said it’s up to you and your son; as long as you’re happy, that’s fine. I’m not marrying He Yao, so I certainly have no right to object. Besides, I wasn’t the one who set the wedding date or tried on the wedding dress, you better not slander me. If you still don’t believe me, I have proof. Take a look."

Lin Zhiyi took out her phone and showed it to Mrs. He alone.

Mrs. He turned pale and stood there dumbfounded.
