Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 1161

Chapter 1161: Chapter 1161: A Knife Through the Heart

From outside the door, a man’s deep voice was heard.

"I’ll go settle the bill. Added a few dishes on the way."

Everyone listened; the man’s voice was so pleasant, and he seemed quite prosperous.

He didn’t seem like an old man at all.

Lin Zhiyi opened the door, giving way to Gong Chen.

"This is my husband."

Gong San.

Even Xingxing couldn’t bring herself to say this name.

Gong Chen dressed casually, but his aura remained.

As he walked into the private room slowly, the sense of pressure approached, he slightly nodded, his ink-black eyes clear and composed.

"Hello, everyone."

With a clatter, the wine glass beside Yu Mei toppled over, spilling wine on her, but she felt nothing.

She just coldly stared at the man standing next to Lin Zhiyi.

An indescribable familiarity and a sense of pressure made her momentarily unsure how to describe him.

But she knew she had lost completely.

After sitting down, the gathering began.

Someone curiously asked Lin Zhiyi, "What’s your husband doing?"

Gong Chen was peeling shrimp for Lin Zhiyi, calmly said, "Small business, mainly Zhiyi runs the household."

Everyone was stunned.

"Zhiyi runs the household? Very few men admit that the woman runs the household," a classmate said.

Gong Chen wiped his hands, "She has that capability."

Several female classmates looked at Lin Zhiyi with envy.

Lin Zhiyi felt a bit embarrassed.

But a few men spoke with a sarcastic tone.

"A man should be the head of the family; that way, women feel secure."

Some female classmates slightly stiffened their expressions.

Lin Zhiyi picked up a shrimp, tasted it carefully, then looked at those few men.

"If a man can give a woman a sense of security, then what does a man want?"

The men thought Lin Zhiyi agreed with them and each chuckled.

"Women should traditionally support their husbands and teach their children, taking care of family matters; having elders and children is very important."

Important in words, but marrying a wife can make you a lazy bum.

Lin Zhiyi chuckled lightly and turned to look at the female classmates.

"Women aren’t born from stone cracks; they have their families and parents. How come after marriage, they become someone else’s nanny?"

"Security is a feeling for oneself. Supporting husbands, teaching children, taking care of the home, looking after the old and young—if all these can be done well, what sense of security can’t be given to oneself? Why must it be from men?"

"What era is this; hopefully, you aren’t that outdated, right?"

A few men looked unhappy but could say nothing.

Instead, the female classmates looked at Lin Zhiyi and smiled.

Who would’ve thought Yu Mei’s husband would suddenly stand up?

He loudly said, "Brother, if you eat soft rice, so be it; don’t have your wife cover for you, but your looks qualify as a young man."

As he spoke, a rush of alcohol air came over.

He seemed to have drunk quite a bit.

Lin Zhiyi wanted to argue back, but Gong Chen pressed her hand down.

He coldly glanced at Yu Mei’s husband.

"Clearly, you have experience eating soft rice."

His expression stiffened, "You..."

Gong Chen continued, "It’s also clear your wife holds much resentment; perhaps not enough security was given?"

Suddenly, those who misspoke were all subtly mocked.

Lin Zhiyi almost laughed out. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

With things said this way, who dared to speak rashly?

The meal finally continued.

During which, Lin Zhiyi talked a lot with the homeroom teacher.

The teacher looked at the couple, smiled contently.

She looked at Gong Chen and said, "I always knew Zhiyi’s family was quite complex. I was also worried at first, but one day she suddenly seemed enlightened, saying she wanted to study well and wanted to... climb some high mountain."
