Chapter 123: Chapter 123 Hold me tight, my little niece
Chapter 123 -123 Hold me tight, my little niece
Lin Zhiyi hailed a cab with her phone but had set the pickup location at the intersection during the daytime and, in her haste, forgot to change it. By the time she realized her mistake, the driver had already accepted the order.
She had no choice but to endure the pain and walk towards the intersection.
The short distance felt excruciatingly long to her.
Just then, Shen Yan stepped out of her studio.
She called out, “Shen Yan, could you…” help me to the intersection ahead.
Shen Yan always loved to act like they were the best of sisterly friends. Now was not the time to let an opportunity go to waste.
But before she could finish, Shen Yan cut in, focusing on Lin Zhiyi’s foot, “I’m sorry, Zhiyi, my mom said she hurt her back at work this afternoon, and I have to rush to the hospital. I really can’t help you, I have to go.”
Shen Yan’s face seemed troubled, but her eyes harbored a hidden smile.
It would be interesting to see Lin Zhiyi fall flat on her face. She definitely needed to capture it and post it on the school network.
Let those groveling idiots see what their idol looked like making a fool of herself.
Just the thought made Shen Yan switch her phone into camera mode.
Lin Zhiyi didn’t say anything further and decided to continue shuffling forward.
Just as she turned around, a black luxury car pulled up to the curb.
The window rolled down, the interplay of light and shadow made the man’s facial features appear even more sculpted and profound.
He lifted his gaze, revealing a pair of ink-black pupils, “Get in.”
“No need, I can walk.”
Lin Zhiyi thought of the scene she had just seen of Song Wanqiu kissing him in the car and turned away, limping.
However, Shen Yan, who was just in a hurry to leave, suddenly became the caring best friend and quickly grabbed Lin Zhiyi’s arm.
“Zhiyi, let me carry you. I might be too skinny, but you’re my best friend. I can do it.”
Such a poignant display of innocent kindness.
Lin Zhiyi almost wanted to applaud her.
But she couldn’t walk fast on her own, and with Shen Yan’s help, she might be able to move faster.
After all, Shen Yan also wanted to show off in front of Gong Chen and wouldn’t dare to mess around.
“No need, just help me by supporting me.”
After speaking, Lin Zhiyi placed her hand on Shen Yan’s shoulder. All she wanted was to get away from Gong Chen as soon as possible.
Who knew that Shen Yan would suddenly bend her knees, collapse to the ground, and then struggle to lift her petite face?
“Zhiyi, I’m okay, you’re not heavy at all. I’ll get up and help you right now.”
Her words made it sound as if Lin Zhiyi had intentionally placed all her weight on her, as if she was bullying her.
Lin Zhiyi couldn’t help but roll her eyes secretly.
It was her fault. Why did she trust Shen Yan?
When Shen Yan got up, she also threw a pitiful glance towards the car window.
A simple getting up motion was painfully slow.
Suddenly, Lin Zhiyi heard the sound of a car door opening from behind her.
Shen Yan instantly transformed into a pitiable maiden, lifting her head to fix her gaze on the approaching man.
“Third Young Master, I’m really okay, I can do this! I…”
Lin Zhiyi felt goosebumps all over. What kind of spell had she been under in her past life to think Shen Yan was actually pitiable?
She moved forward, unable to stand it any longer.
Lin Zhiyi looked sideways at the culprit and then, holding her breath, she canceled the ride.
But whether it was psychological or not, she felt the car was filled with the scent of Song Wanqiu’s perfume, and even a faint whiff of ambiguous air lingered.
She shifted uncomfortably, attempting to avoid the residual scents.
“Is there a nail in the seat?” Gong Chen leaned back lazily, one hand propping up his cheek as he watched Lin Zhiyi.
“Mhm.”
As soon as Lin Zhiyi began to speak, she was swiftly pulled into his lap, his hand naturally patting her back.
“How about now?”
“Let go of me!” Lin Zhiyi tried to pry his hand away, but the difference in strength was too great; she couldn’t move him an inch.
The next second, there was a click as the driver quickly closed the partition.
Lin Zhiyi knew the driver had misunderstood, and she didn’t dare struggle anymore; otherwise, given Gong Chen’s domineering personality, he might just get carried away.
She could only sit up straight until the car came to a stop.
When Gong Chen got out of the car, he gave her a probing look, “Nice posture.”
Lin Zhiyi ignored him, got out on her own, and when she looked up, she saw the hospital sign.
Chen Jin came with a wheelchair and helped Lin Zhiyi sit down.
The sight of the hospital reminded her of the scene she witnessed at noon, Song Wanqiu and Li Huan kissing intimately.
She was considering how to broach the subject when a white figure approached quickly.
“Lin Zhiyi, how about I get you a VIP card for our hospital?”
Hearing the voice, Lin Zhiyi felt a chill, her fists involuntarily clenched.
It was Li Huan.
