Wife and daughter died, the scumbag is celebrating the birthday of Bai Yueguang's child

Chapter 712 She Doesn’t Want to Marry

When talking about the studio, Lin Zhiyi smiled happily.

"I'm already selecting the soft furnishings. It won't be long before it's ready."

"That's great. I'll find some good sisters to support you then."

Zhong Min looked at Lin Zhiyi and smiled gently.

Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi was a little flattered.

Zhong Min’s good sister must also be one of the most wealthy ladies in the circle.

Wide network of contacts and high spending power.

With Lin Zhiyi's current status, it is impossible for him to invite these people.

Zhong Min was helping her.

She blinked but didn't refuse.

She opened the studio just to do business, so how could she turn away business that came to her door?

"Thank you, Mrs. Jiang."

“Do we still need to say thank you as a family?”

As Zhong Min spoke, his eyes wandered between Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen.

Lin Zhiyi seemed to understand but not quite.

Zhong Min nudged Gong Chen with her elbow and said, "Gong Chen, our family cannot be irresponsible. Zhiyi and your child are already so old, why don't you marry her?"

Gong Chen was thinking about how to explain.

Lin Zhiyi's eyes turned, thinking about how Gong Chen always found different ways to "bully" her, she suddenly knew how to deal with him.

When she looked at Zhong Min again, there was already a hint of grievance in her eyes.

"Mrs. Jiang, don't blame the Third Master."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Gong Chen looked up at her with slight surprise.

Lin Zhiyi pretended not to see it and continued, "Mrs. Jiang, the Third Master has been too busy recently and may not have time to think about these things."

Zhong Min didn't notice the eye contact between the two.

Turning around and walking in front of Gong Chen, he said earnestly, "Gong Chen, you are already an adult, what's keeping you so busy that you can't take care of Zhiyi and the child?"

Gong Chen paused and was about to speak when Lin Zhiyi spoke first again.

She clenched her hands and her eyes flickered.

"Mrs. Jiang, it's mainly because the Third Master has a lot of social engagements, and I don't know what's going on outside, so I don't dare to ask."

"..."

Gong Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Zhong Min frowned and took Lin Zhiyi's hand: "What are you afraid to ask? If he dares to bully you, just tell me!"

She looked at Gong Chen again: "Gong Chen, if you dare to mess around outside, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your mother!"

Lin Zhiyi secretly made a face at Gong Chen.

It feels different to have someone’s support.

Gong Chen received Lin Zhiyi's provocative gaze and slowly put down the bowl.

The next second, a helpless expression appeared.

"Aunt, it's not that I don't want to marry her, it's that she doesn't want to marry me. Maybe she dislikes my old age? She said she should work hard to make money and provide for my old age."

"..."

After hearing this, Lin Zhiyi almost choked on her own saliva.

She stared at Gong Chen in shock.

Why did he start talking nonsense?

Gong Chen disagreed and sighed, "I haven't even retired yet, but someone has already saved a pension for me."

"..."

Lin Zhiyi wanted to cry but had no tears.

Zhong Min listened carefully and immediately understood what was said.

She burst into laughter: "You two..."

"No, Mrs. Jiang, that's not what I meant." Lin Zhiyi hurriedly explained.

"Then marry me." Gong Chen struck while the iron was hot.

"..."

Only then did Lin Zhiyi realize that she had fallen into Gong Chen's trap.

Suddenly, she didn't know how to answer.

Gong Chen's deep eyes were looking at her, with a clear smile at the corners of his lips.

"Aunt, don't worry. If she doesn't marry, I'll stick with her. I'm thick-skinned anyway."

"..."

Lin Zhiyi's face was full of shyness.

He is really shameless in what he says now.

Zhong Min saw through their thoughts and smiled.

"Okay, you guys do whatever you want. It's getting late. I'm leaving now."

"Zhiyi, if you have any problems in the studio, remember to find me."

Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi withdrew from Gong Chen's gaze and nodded to Zhong Min.

"Thank you."

After seeing Zhong Min off.

Lin Zhiyi lowered her head to clean up the dishes on the table.

Suddenly, her waist was tightened and her back was pressed against the man's warm chest.

He lowered his head slightly and moved closer to her, his hot breath lingering on her neck, and every breath brought a shiver to her.

"Are you afraid that I will force you to get married?"

"No." Lin Zhiyi turned her head to meet his gaze and shook her head. "Do you still remember the online reports after that night three years ago?"

"Yeah." Gong Chen responded lightly.

"Before that, I always thought I was pretty good. Although I was a single parent, my mother was very good to me, and my uncle was also very good. At school, my teachers and classmates also praised me for my good abilities. In the Gong family, I was very cautious and never did anything wrong, but just because I liked you, everything changed."

Lin Zhiyi looked at the man, recalled the past, and continued talking.

"I became a woman who was overconfident and vain in the eyes of others. Everything I thought was good turned out to be wrong, and I even implicated my mother and uncle."

"Because we are not compatible."

"From that day on, I told myself that I must move forward and upward, not to match you, but to tell them that I am good enough."

After saying this, Lin Zhiyi felt the person in front of him breathe slightly quickened for a moment.

Then he was held in his arms.

"I get it. No one can force you. Earn more money so that I can retire early." The man said in a deep voice.

"You still say that Third Master is not ashamed."

"It takes skill to be a freeloader."

Gong Chen was not ashamed but proud of it.

Lin Zhiyi couldn't argue with him, so she stuffed the bowl on the table into his hands.

"Third Master, there is a price to pay for living off others."

"Then I'll adapt in advance."

Gong Chen rolled up his sleeves, took the bowl and went to the kitchen.

After washing the dishes, Gong Chen found Lin Zhiyi and Xingxing in the children's room.

The mother and daughter fell asleep with their heads leaning against each other.

Gong Chen sat on the edge of the bed and watched this scene, he couldn't get enough of it.

But seeing that both of them were sleeping uncomfortably, he smiled and shook his head, got up, laid Xingxing's little body flat, and covered her with the quilt.

Then he carried Lin Zhiyi back to the room.

When Lin Zhiyi touched the soft bed, she subconsciously turned over and pressed the hand that was supporting her head under her cheek.

The man's fingers were long and his palms were warm, pressing against the skin of his cheeks, giving him an indescribable feeling of comfort.

Lin Zhiyi couldn't help but curl her lips.

Gong Chen supported the edge of the bed with his other hand and leaned over to her.

"Don't pretend."

"..."

Lin Zhiyi closed his eyes tightly, but his eyeballs were moving under his eyelids.

Gong Chen said calmly: "Since you are asleep, I can do anything..."

Lin Zhiyi immediately opened his eyes and yawned.

"What's wrong? Why am I here?"

Gong Chen couldn't help laughing: "Your acting skills really haven't improved at all."

Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips.

"I almost fell asleep just now."

Gong Chen held her cheek and rubbed it with his fingertips.

Arms bent slightly, he moved closer.

Lin Zhiyi paused for a moment and stared blankly at the man who was so close to her, she could even see his eyelashes clearly.

Staggered breathing.

"Zhiyi, have you forgotten something?"

"I...I'm still injured." Lin Zhiyi warned.

"I mean the question I asked this morning. You haven't answered me yet. What's going on in your head?"

"..."

Lin Zhiyi's face felt hot.
