Chapter 466 Is this the seat you can sit in?
Palace house.
When arriving at the Gong family’s territory, Lin Zhiyi looked out of the car window.
I haven't been here for more than three years, and the palace is as magnificent as ever.
There were a few workers trimming the lawn in the park outside the mansion, and it looked a little deserted.
After entering the gate, it suddenly became lively.
Lin Zhiyi raised her eyes and stared ahead. Many familiar-looking relatives of the Gong family had arrived.
Generally, these people will only come when there is something important.
As he was thinking, the car stopped and the driver opened the door and motioned Lin Zhiyi to get out.
Lin Zhiyi clenched the bag in her hand, took a deep breath, and slowly got out of the car.
The porch, which was originally quite lively, fell silent the moment she saw her.
The butler walked through the crowd and stopped in front of Lin Zhiyi.
"Ms. Lin, the old man is waiting for you inside."
"Ah."
Lin Zhiyi nodded, walked slowly inside through the crowd.
There was an undisguised mocking voice coming from behind.
"Why is she here?"
"I heard that Mr. Sang didn't bring her back to Haicheng. It looks like she was abandoned. One would get tired of a woman after using her for three years."
"Haha, a vixen is a vixen, she deserves it."
In the past, Lin Zhiyi would have felt that it was better to have less trouble than more.
But now, she is no longer the woman who lives under someone else's roof.
Lin Zhiyi, who had just taken two steps, suddenly turned around and looked at the women who were gossiping.
She looked him up and down, without refutation, but just chuckled and said, "No wonder."
After saying that, she was leaving.
As soon as they heard this, they felt something was wrong and stepped forward to grab Lin Zhiyi.
"Lin Zhiyi, what do you mean?"
"Madam, I'm thanking you for your compliments. I was originally quite curious about who would say I was a vixen. After all, a vixen must have the capital, right? Seeing you...you, I think I understand. Thank you for the compliments, Madam."
Lin Zhiyi has been a B&B owner for three years and has seen many difficult guests.
I have already developed my own set of rhetoric.
These people looked down on her and were the best at making sarcastic comments.
But she is different. She will beat around the bush and make indirect accusations.
The women from the Gong family in front of them took a while to realize that Lin Zhiyi was calling them ugly.
"You! How dare you! We are the elders of the Third Brother after all. What qualifications do you have to scold us?"
"Madam, what did I say to scold you? What did I scold you for? I even thanked you. As a person... don't take it too seriously. Being an elder doesn't just mean age, right?"
Lin Zhiyi smiled at these people and even nodded slightly, with a humble look on his face.
"you you……"
They smacked their tongues and opened their eyes wide, as if they had seen a ghost.
Lin Zhiyi glanced at everyone, raised his head, turned around and followed the butler forward.
After a while, Lin Zhiyi arrived at the hall.
Compared to the bustle outside, the atmosphere in the hall was much more serious.
The first thing Lin Zhiyi saw was Liu He sitting on a small chair in the corner.
After not seeing her for a few days, Liu He's face looked a little plumper. It seemed that Gong Shiyan took good care of her.
As soon as she saw Lin Zhiyi, she stood up in a hurry, but the bodyguard behind her pressed down on her shoulders, so she had to sit back in her seat.
She frowned and looked at Lin Zhiyi, then looked cautiously at the person sitting in front of her.
It was none other than Mr. Gong.
He held the teacup and skimmed the tea leaves without even looking at Lin Zhiyi.
The others sat on both sides, some drinking tea, some stroking their beards, or looking at each other.
The only look he gave Lin Zhiyi was one of disdain.
They left her alone and tried to temper her, just like they had done in the past.
Lin Zhiyi calmed Liu He with her eyes, then looked at the old man sitting in the upper seat and ignored everyone's shocked looks and sat in the empty seat.
Boom!
The old man put down the teacup heavily and snorted, "Is this the seat you can sit in?"
Lin Zhiyi said indifferently, "Where else can I sit except here? Could it be that the old man specially sent someone to pick me up just to watch me stand as punishment? Is this the Gong family's way of entertaining guests?"
She picked up the teacup and took a sip, imitating their behavior. She smiled faintly and said, "Do you think I am still a member of the Gong family? So I deserve this?"
In the past, she endured it all for Liu He, so these people took advantage of the situation to bully her.
Now Liu He has the protection of Gong Shiyan, the deputy general manager, and she is pregnant.
No matter how much the old man hated Liu He, he would never hurt him in public.
Why should Lin Zhiyi tolerate this?
The old man was so angry that veins on his forehead throbbed and he slammed the table.
Except for the sound of the teacup vibrating on the table, the surroundings were dead silent.
"Lin Zhiyi, you are still as confused as before. Do you think that if Sang Ran dies, you can be with Gong Chen?"
The old man pointed at the others present and sneered, "There are eighteen elders from the same clan here. Who would dare to agree if I don't nod? Not to mention the other people in the same clan."
"If Gong Chen wants Gong family, he can't be with you!"
"Lin Zhiyi, are you qualified to ask Gong Chen to let go of everything?"
After that, the others sneered.
Everyone laughed at Lin Zhiyi, saying that he was like a gnat trying to shake a tree, overestimating his own abilities.
Lin Zhiyi clenched the teacup tightly, not daring to show the slightest bit of fear.
But Mr. Gong is so shrewd, how could he not see through her disguise?
He sneered and looked at the butler calmly.
The housekeeper waved at the strong bodyguard and said solemnly: "Why don't you ask Miss Lin to stand up? She was born in the market and doesn't know the rules. Don't you know the rules too?"
The bodyguard walked up to Lin Zhiyi and extended his hand without hesitation.
Lin Zhiyi's nails turned pale as he clenched the teacup.
Just as she was about to smash the teacup and fight to the death like before, she heard a whoosh.
A cold light flashed before my eyes, followed by the sound of a teacup breaking.
Lin Zhiyi paused, lowered his eyes and found that his teacup was intact.
Instead, the teacup in the old man's hand broke into pieces, and the tea spilled all over his sleeves.
But he couldn't raise his hand because his sleeve was nailed to the mahogany table by a small dagger.
Then, a dark shadow slowly walked into the hall.
"I didn't exercise enough and my hand slipped. Otherwise... it shouldn't have been the teacup that was broken."
Looking at the newcomers, the entire hall seemed to have been drained of oxygen, making one feel suffocated.
Although everyone present was an elder, they still stood up.
"The third child."
Gong Chen ignored them, his eyes calm, as if everything around him was not pleasing to his eyes.
Lin Zhiyi saw him coming and was about to stand up with everyone else, but he pressed down on her shoulder.
"Sit down."
Gong Chen's lips curled up slightly, as if he was smiling but not laughing, giving people a chilling feeling of fear.
Lin Zhiyi was stunned for a moment before she realized that she was so bold as to sit in Gong Chen's seat.
A pregnancy makes one stupid for three years, and she has even forgotten the rules of the Gong family.
No wonder the old man and others were so angry.
Lin Zhiyi still stood up. She felt very awkward being stared at by so many people.
She pulled Gong Chen over and whispered, "Please sit down. I ate too much this afternoon and need to digest it."
Gong Chen said nothing and sat down slowly.
But he didn't look at anyone, and no one dared to sit down.
When he picked up the teacup and prepared to drink tea, Lin Zhiyi stood beside him and secretly touched his arm.
She reminded quietly: "I drank."
Gong Chen raised his eyes, his dark pupils glowing slightly. He glanced at the rim of the cup as she looked at him, and drank from it deliberately towards the lip print.
Lin Zhiyi was stunned.
After a moment, Gong Chen put down the teacup, and lipstick appeared on his lips.
Lin Zhiyi quickly nodded at him.
Gong Chen raised her hand and slowly wiped off the lipstick with her fingertips, as if she was afraid that others wouldn't see it.
Everyone looked shocked.
Only Lin Zhiyi moved and tried to find a place to hide.
