Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 1084

Chapter 1084: Chapter 1084: You Have Another Woman?

Gong Chen stood up and took her bag: "Can we really keep anything from you? How is your negotiation going now?"

"I have picked up a bit of insider information, but after all, I’m an outsider. That Mrs. Wei only dangled a little bait for me. However, it’s not hard to tell from her words that President Zhang’s death seems somewhat suspicious," said Lin Zhiyi.

Sang Li furrowed his brows and said, "I’ve had someone investigate this as well. The police found nothing wrong; the investigation was thorough and the evidence complete. It was indeed just an accident."

President Zhang died in a car accident on the way to have dinner with his wife Bai Hui, due to emergency braking in a sudden downpour.

Bai Hui couldn’t control the weather, and the accident site matched the scenario of losing control in heavy rain.

Lin Zhiyi said, "Mrs. Wei hinted that even before President Zhang died, Bai Hui was ready to inherit the Zhang Corporation. She wouldn’t expose herself to people like you, but she seems to look down on those wives, and that sense of superiority would certainly cause her to reveal something unintentionally."

Gong Chen said, "When all coincidences pile up, they are no longer coincidences. I heard that Bai Hui was already holding fort at the Zhang Corporation before her husband was even buried, ostensibly for his sake, but obviously to seize power before the Zhang Family could react. This couldn’t have been an improvised solution."

"More like premeditated," added Sang Li.

As they spoke, Lin Zhiyi happened to glance at the weather forecast on the electronic screen of the building opposite.

She asked curiously, "In what month did President Zhang die?"

Sang Li checked the information on the computer.

"Late June."

"A rainy season. How was the weather that year?" Lin Zhiyi asked again.

Unexpectedly, Gong Chen checked the weather situation of that year on his phone when he heard her inquire.

"During that time, Hai City experienced a major typhoon and heavy rain."

Gong Chen continued, "What if Bai Hui was trying her luck that day as well? If she didn’t succeed, she could use the adverse weather in Hai City to keep trying each day."

Sang Li pinched the corner of his eye and then looked at the screen.

"I checked that road; it seems accidents are not uncommon, but the reasons remain unclear. They could only place numerous warning signs around. Unexpectedly..."

Lin Zhiyi couldn’t help but sigh inwardly; the Bai Family really isn’t without their troublemakers.

However, there was something she didn’t quite understand.

"I heard from those wives that President Zhang was especially good to Bai Hui. When the Bai Family went bankrupt and went abroad, President Zhang was always protecting Bai Hui. This shows that President Zhang was fond of Bai Hui. So why would Bai Hui want to kill him? Wouldn’t it be better to have President Zhang’s help? At least the Zhang Family would be more convinced."

Sang Li also found it strange: "Bai Hui never had conflicts in the Zhang Family, which is probably due to President Zhang. Keeping him around would have been more advantageous for her."

Gong Chen pondered for a while and, drawing upon his own experience with the Bai Family, expressed his thoughts.

"The Bai Family wouldn’t kill someone without reason unless that person was not only useless but a hindrance to them."

Sang Li asked, "What if President Zhang discovered Bai Hui’s connection to the Bai Family’s business? Maybe someone tried to stop the Bai Family’s business earlier, only to be preempted."

Lin Zhiyi shivered involuntarily.

"This would complicate things."

"No need to worry too much. The Bai Family has already been apprehended, and Bai Hui alone cannot achieve the Bai Family’s grand ambitions," Gong Chen reassured.

Sang Li said, "This might explain why Bai Hui tried to rally so many people. Maybe she really is involved with the Bai Family’s affairs."

Lin Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems my efforts at gathering information were actually worthwhile this time."

Gong Chen continued, "If you want to know just how deep Bai Hui’s involvement with the Bai Family is, there’s another way."

Lin Zhiyi and Sang Li looked at Gong Chen simultaneously.

Gong Chen took out an invitation card.

"Jia Xin asked me to bring this along; Bai Hui will be attending as well."

It was a private party at Jia Xin’s house.

Sang Li opened the invitation.

"Bringing a female companion? What is Jia Xin up to now?"

"Probably quite a few people are curious about who you’re pursuing," Gong Chen said with a faint smile.

Sang Li held the invitation, curling his lips: "I’ll ask the big star if she’s free."

Lin Zhiyi laughed: "Don’t worry, Chu Yin will definitely be free. In that case, we’ll leave you be."

With that, Lin Zhiyi pulled Gong Chen away.

In the elevator, Lin Zhiyi asked, "Are you going too? What if you’re found out? Especially by Bai Hui."

Gong Chen smiled: "Though I really want to accompany you, for the sake of peaceful days ahead, I’ll stay home and wait for you."
