Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 874

Chapter 874: Chapter 874: Contradictions

As Lin Zhiyi was staring at the sky, the surrounding bodyguards gradually approached under Yang Jingwei’s signal.

She immediately withdrew her gaze and smiled at Xingxing.

"Keep playing, I’ll sit here beside you."

"Mom, who is she? Why does she keep staring at me?" Xingxing pointed at Yang Jingwei.

Lin Zhiyi didn’t want to scare Xingxing, so she reassured, "Someone I know, she’ll be gone soon, don’t worry."

"Okay."

Xingxing held Liao Yi’s hand and went off to play again.

Lin Zhiyi turned around and locked eyes with Yang Jingwei.

Although the surroundings were sunny and pleasant, a storm was already brewing between them.

As she walked towards Yang Jingwei, Lin Zhiyi’s hand hung by her side, her finger tapping on her phone’s screen.

Then she casually sat back down beside Yang Jingwei.

"Mrs. Bai, what are you afraid of?"

"Lin Zhiyi, stop acting like you know me so well."

Saying this, Yang Jingwei glanced at her watch.

Lin Zhiyi knew she was definitely calculating when Gong Chen would arrive at the hospital.

Gong Chen should have arrived by now, but everything around was calm and peaceful. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Lin Zhiyi said, "Need me to call Third Young Master to ask? Maybe it’s just difficult to park at the hospital."

Listening to her joking tone, Yang Jingwei’s brows furrowed.

"Lin Zhiyi, don’t play tricks with me, your schemes don’t work on me. You better hope Third Young Master can come find you soon, or else..."

Yang Jingwei’s brows relaxed, and she suddenly smiled.

Lin Zhiyi held her breath; she knew Yang Jingwei couldn’t possibly be unprepared.

For a moment, a flash of light dazzled her eyes.

She immediately looked up, saw the glint from the opposite building, and understood immediately what it was.

A gun.

Lin Zhiyi was stunned, shocked by Yang Jingwei’s audacity.

She actually dared to do such a thing in a busy city.

But thinking carefully, everything Yang Jingwei did was quite bold.

She simply didn’t care about others’ lives.

Could this person really be Liu He’s close friend Wei Xiaoyun?

Lin Zhiyi regained her composure, staring at Yang Jingwei’s face, perhaps she could use this chance to uncover Yang Jingwei’s true identity.

She took a deep breath and carefully sat up straight.

"Mrs. Bai, aren’t you afraid of being uncovered?"

Yang Jingwei chuckled, "I told you, you don’t understand me. I reached where I am by being relentless, ruthless to others, and to myself. Even if I got exposed, I’ve thought of five ways to exonerate myself."

"Like, the person the killer meant to target was me, but you and your daughter were accidentally caught in it."

"What do you think?"

Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips.

That was indeed a clever plan.

These assassins were reckless fugitives, and if Yang Jingwei didn’t have something on them.

It would be impossible for them to fire a gun in such a place.

Even if caught, they would follow Yang Jingwei’s words to help exonerate her.

After all, Yang Jingwei is Mrs. Bai, many want her dead.

Lin Zhiyi clenched her fist, showing a worried expression.

Yang Jingwei relaxed seeing this.

"I’ve already sent the photo to Third Young Master, he’ll definitely hurry to find you."

"Looks like Mrs. Bai is fully prepared, I bow to you, but the child is innocent, if you must kill, just kill me." Lin Zhiyi pleaded.

Yang Jingwei burst into laughter.

Speaking of luck, Wei Xiaoyun’s luck was truly bad.

Cheated by a man, losing money and affection, and debt under loan sharks.

Lin Zhiyi continued, "Haha, it’s so interesting, I asked so many questions, yet you only emphasized my mom’s matters. Do you hate my mom so much? I really can’t understand, my mom obviously trusted you so much, and helped you a lot. You’re so ungrateful!"

"Shut up! You’re not qualified to say that to me!"

Something seemed to have triggered Yang Jingwei, her gaze towards Lin Zhiyi turned menacing.

Even when Gong Chen didn’t show up as she expected, she wasn’t this vicious.

Lin Zhiyi was determined to continue provoking, "Mrs. Bai, this time you didn’t deny, seems I was right. You are Wei Xiaoyun!"

"Hahaha..." Yang Jingwei suddenly leaned closer to Lin Zhiyi, softly said, "Stop flattering your mom, she only got this far by riding on others’ coattails!"

"Whose coattails? Yours?"

Lin Zhiyi stared into her eyes, coldly retorting.

Yang Jingwei seemed like she was done pretending, after today, Gong Chen couldn’t help Lin Zhiyi.

"I call your mom stupid, and you really think she’s that simple?"

"What do you mean?"

Lin Zhiyi was puzzled.

Liu He was known for her simple-mindedness.

How much more complex could she be?

Yang Jingwei slightly raised her head, as if recalling something.

"If she didn’t make her friend ill, how could she have met Second Young Master? It was intentional! She trampled on others to enter a wealthy family!"

"Was that all?" Lin Zhiyi asked in astonishment.

"Isn’t that enough? In that place, with so many rich people coming and going daily, who doesn’t want to marry into wealth? But your mom stole someone else’s opportunity! She’s too insidious."

Lin Zhiyi found such reasoning completely unreasonable.

"That someone else was you, right? So you’re saying my mom was smart enough to know Second Young Master’s identity in advance, knew his whereabouts, and made you sick beforehand? But you also said, that was the first time my mom and Second Young Master met, your statements clearly contradict."
