Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 1159

Chapter 1159: Chapter 1159: My Husband Is Omnipotent

Gong Chen put down his phone and said calmly, "Is ’husband’ such a universal term?"

Lin Zhiyi laughed and said, "The word might not be universal, but my husband is."

Gong Chen chuckled, "I like that. What’s up?"

"Bringing a partner to the class reunion is secondary. I just wanted to show you to my homeroom teacher, but your face might be a problem. Quite a few of my classmates are in your industry, they’ll definitely recognize you."

"So what do you mean?" Gong Chen asked.

Lin Zhiyi smiled obsequiously at him, "Actually, I think... Chen Jin is quite good."

Gong Chen’s expectant look suddenly turned sour.

"He’s good, and I’m not?"

"No, I’m just worried you’ll get exposed? It’s hard enough to settle in peace, I just want to handle my classmates, besides, Yu Mei agreed to come too. They probably just want to see the rumors from online, so I might as well use them to clear things up without lifting a finger."

Lin Zhiyi had calculated everything well.

But seeing Gong Chen’s face, she didn’t dare to say more.

"Alright, just pretend I didn’t say anything."

Lin Zhiyi prepared to quickly make her escape. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

With quick reflexes, Gong Chen pulled her back.

"Who says I can’t go? These days it’s quite normal for people to look a bit similar, right? Moreover, I’m now the descendant of a collateral branch of the Gong family."

To legitimize his identity, Gong Chen utilized Sarah’s influence abroad, along with the advantage of the numerous members of the Gong family.

He found an identity to assume from relatives far removed.

The person was an only child, with deceased parents and no connections with relatives.

Ten years ago, he had a cliff-climbing accident, and even his body wasn’t recovered.

Sarah used the pretense of global travel to let Gong Chen resurrect his identity.

Gong Chen then smoothly changed his name and returned home.

But identity is one thing—his looks were too easily provocative.

Not to mention that Yu Mei is a journalist; how could she pass up such a good opportunity?

Gong Chen noticed Lin Zhiyi’s concerns.

He stood up and took something from the cupboard.

Lin Zhiyi leaned in for a closer look, "This is..."

"Disguises aren’t limited to women, men can disguise too. This is custom-made from Sarah, just in case. Her stuff... you know."

Lin Zhiyi touched it, surprised, "It feels like real skin, the texture is the same. But aren’t the human skin masks from movies supposed to be a whole face?"

Gong Chen pointed to his own face, "Everyone has their unique features, that’s why even with the same facial features, people look different. Change the features, and you can change the appearance; no need to cover the whole face."

Lin Zhiyi nodded, "Then I’ll have to trouble you, hubby."

Gong Chen trapped her on his lap.

"How do you plan to thank me?"

"How should I thank you? I’ll prepare a big gift for you once the class reunion is over?"

"Sure."

Gong Chen nodded.

...

Class reunion.

On the way there, Lin Zhiyi glanced at the group messages.

There were photos of classmates who’ve already arrived, and everyone had changed quite a bit.

Lin Zhiyi felt a slight pang of nostalgia.

Gong Chen glanced over, "New clothes, fake smiles."

Lin Zhiyi laughed out, "For a class reunion, of course you want to show everyone your best side. I’m also wearing new clothes today; I matched the accessories last night."

Gong Chen looked at Lin Zhiyi’s accessories.

It seemed she didn’t want to put pressure on her classmates, so she only wore a pair of pearl earrings and their plain wedding ring.

Gong Chen took her hand, "You don’t need to wear other jewelry, but in this situation, there’s one thing you must wear."

Lin Zhiyi was puzzled, "What?"

"A watch, it can help you filter out many people."

As he spoke, Gong Chen had already placed the watch he once gave Lin Zhiyi onto her wrist.

"What do you mean?"

Lin Zhiyi looked at Gong Chen in confusion.

Gong Chen explained, "Those who know the value will know how to talk; those who don’t won’t care about it."

Lin Zhiyi nodded, "You’re afraid I won’t have the advantage in a conversation with Yu Mei, so you’re giving me table allies? People who recognize the watch’s worth will step in to ease things up, so it won’t get too ugly."

"Yes, I know you’re doing this for your homeroom teacher, so it wouldn’t be good if things got too messy for anyone involved."
