Chapter 494 Chopping Him Off Is a Cheap Deal
Lin Zhiyi hung up the phone and felt that Gong Chen's voice was a little strange, as if he was in a good mood.
It sounds quite lively around here.
Lin Zhiyi thought it was so late, so she didn't ask for anything, but just asked him to come back and be careful.
Then continue to be busy with your work.
Just now, Xueman suddenly introduced a client to her, hoping that she could design a piece of jewelry to match the engagement dress in a short period of time.
Lin Zhiyi is looking at the design pictures of her engagement dress.
The photos sent to her only showed the front, so she had to look up the complete front and back photos online herself.
As she was watching intently, a pair of hands came from behind and wrapped around her shoulders.
Before she turned around, a bowl of rice dumplings made from fermented glutinous rice appeared in front of her.
Looking at the logo on the package, she was surprised and asked, "Why are you going so far away?"
"I did some work, eat it while it's hot."
Gong Chen took the computer off her lap and put the food in her hands.
"Thank you."
Lin Zhiyi picked up the spoon and took a bite.
As expected, the wine-fermented glutinous rice balls in Beijing are the most authentic. Although there are also some in Hong Kong, the taste there is generally heavier.
Lin Zhiyi also tried to make it herself, but the taste was always a little off.
She especially wanted to eat it during pregnancy.
I took two buses to eat the most delicious fermented glutinous rice balls in Hong Kong.
But after taking the first bite, she felt inexplicably aggrieved and sat alone in the store crying.
Gong Chen saw that she was stirring the food with a spoon but didn't eat it, so he sat down next to her.
"dislike?"
"No, I just thought of the past. In fact, the rice dumplings made by the chef of the Gong family were also very delicious. I don't know where the ingredients were bought. Later, I couldn't buy them no matter how hard I tried."
Lin Zhiyi sighed and lowered his head to continue eating the glutinous rice balls.
Gong Chen poured a cup of scented tea that Lin Zhiyi had just brewed from the coffee table and said calmly, "That's the recipe I asked someone to adjust. It's only for the Gong family."
Lin Zhiyi looked at Gong Chen in surprise and was stunned for a long time.
Gong Chen took a sip of tea and said, "The Gong family doesn't have the habit of eating fermented rice dumplings at banquets. Your mother asked someone to add them after she came. You eat the most, but she is embarrassed to ask the kitchen to add more dishes every time."
"But later on, at every banquet, there was..."
Lin Zhiyi lost his voice halfway through his speech.
She got it.
That was for her.
No wonder no one eats it every time.
Suddenly, she thought of something.
"Sang Ran said before that you bought her a lot of fermented rice balls..."
"I bought it for you, but you ran away." Gong Chen said truthfully.
Lin Zhiyi held the bowl, her palms feeling warm.
Their eyes met, and the man moved closer, looking at her intently.
She pursed her lips and said, "Do you want to eat? I'll get a bowl and share half with you."
"No need to bother."
The man kissed her directly.
The light touch becomes more profound under the aroma of flower tea and the sweetness of wine.
Lin Zhiyi still had the bowl in her hand and couldn't resist. She could only let her lips be pried open and inhaled his scent.
After a long time, Gong Chen let go of her, panting.
"Eat."
Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips, her ears reddened: "Yeah."
Gong Chen sat beside him and drank half a pot of flower tea before he calmed down.
Lin Zhiyi pretended to be calm as she ate.
After calming down, she smelled a faint smell of smoke from Gong Chen.
But he has quit smoking.
She pondered for a few seconds, wondering if she was too upset because of her problems.
She didn't ask directly: "Where have you been?"
Gong Chen paused while raising his glass: "I looked for Fang Jian."
"Fang Jian?"
Lin Zhiyi didn't react at first when she heard the unfamiliar name.
I repeated it several times before I finally understood.
"Fang Lai'er's brother. Her brother is not a good guy!"
Lin Zhiyi blurted out.
Gong Chen's dark eyes moved as he said calmly, "Have you seen him? As far as I know, he only came to Fang Laier in the past two years."
Lin Zhiyi felt guilty and almost bit the spoon.
She quickly explained: "I heard from Fang Lai'er that Fang Jian is the youngest son in the family, more favored than his eldest brother, and lawless since childhood. In short, any mistakes he makes are his sister's fault. I didn't expect him to come to Fang Lai'er for help."
In his previous life, Fang Laier returned to his hometown after graduation, so this never happened.
But Fang Laier's marriage is also related to her eldest brother's marriage.
In her hometown, there is a custom of using a daughter's dowry to support her brothers.
So her family married her off in a hurry and used her betrothal money to help her elder brother get married.
Later, she had a miscarriage due to domestic violence and was divorced because she never got pregnant.
At that time, her uneducated younger brother was clamoring to start a business, so her parents found another man for her to marry.
It's also a second marriage, but it's good for her.
Life is going smoothly.
But her younger brother, Fang Jian, spent all her betrothal money and still owed a lot of money.
Her parents didn't want to disturb their eldest son's life, so they forced her and her second husband to get the money.
Fang Jian was so unscrupulous that he told his parents that they would have money if they married her again.
The parents went to make a fuss every day, and the second husband finally divorced Fang Lailai.
Fang Lai'er wanted to run away, but was caught by her eldest brother.
It is said that her third marriage is to an older man who is older than her father and is also a domestic violence man.
When Lin Zhiyi found out, she was about to return the money that Fang Laier had secretly transferred to her, but then she learned everything from Dazhu.
But by then she and Fang Lai'er had lost contact.
Lin Zhiyi sighed in her heart. In this life, she clearly helped Fang Laier avoid the nightmare of returning home.
How is he related to Fang Jian again?
She put down the rice dumplings and asked Gong Chen, "Did Fang Jian do something?"
"Gambling." Gong Chen said coldly.
Lin Zhiyi was stunned.
Considering his age, Fang Jian is no more than a college student now, but he actually started gambling?
Nine out of ten people lose when gambling, and this is Beijing, so the money involved in gambling is not a small amount.
No wonder Gong Chen said Fang Laier was short of money.
"Who's behind her then?"
"You'll find out soon."
"What on earth did you do?" Lin Zhiyi asked suspiciously.
Gong Chen raised his eyebrows and reached out to pick up Lin Zhiyi horizontally.
"Don't talk about other people late at night."
"Then what are we talking about?"
"Let's talk about something else interesting."
"..."
Lin Zhiyi's cheeks flushed again.
She understood again.
……
The next morning, Lin Zhiyi did not go to the studio.
Because Xue Man had arranged a meeting with a client on her behalf, she didn't have to report to the studio so early.
She played with the stars for a while before setting off for the agreed location.
Unexpectedly, when she sat down, the person who came was not a customer, but Fang Laier.
Before, Fang Laier wore delicate makeup and looked like a real urban beauty.
But now, her cheeks were sunken and there were bruises on her brow bones.
The whole person looked tired and miserable.
"Why are you so surprised to see me? Lin Zhiyi, I really underestimated you. You actually asked someone to chop off my brother's fingers."
"..."
Lin Zhiyi was slightly surprised and understood what Gong Chen had done last night.
Chop your fingers?
It seemed like he was really angry.
She remained calm: "It's not me. Besides, you know your brother better than I do. Let alone chopping off his fingers, it would be a relief for him if I didn't chop him off."
"you!"
Fang Laier was shocked.
