Chapter 296 Their Bond is Too Deep
Gong Chen lit the lighter and felt the temperature of the flame.
It was ironic to hear that coming from another man.
He sneered, his face grim.
Sang Li didn't care and continued, "The power of the Gong family is complicated. Even if you have controlled a lot of power, the rest is still in the hands of the old man. If you want to control the entire Gong family, it will probably take some time, but obviously, the old man only needs one move to control you."
For example, Lin Zhiyi.
As soon as he finished speaking, the lighter in Gong Chen's hand went out, and the hot body of the lighter ironed his palm.
Like being pricked by needles.
Regarding the matters involving the Gong family, Sang Li said no more and raised his hand to pat Gong Chen on the shoulder.
"Besides, I'm doing this for my sister. I don't want her to do anything wrong. If that happens, you won't just owe her your life."
Today everyone understands that Sang Ran’s words were not spoken out of impatience, but rather the result of a lot of accumulated emotions that led to their outburst.
After saying that, Sang Li left the balcony.
Gong Chen brought a cigarette but didn't smoke it, letting it dissipate between his fingertips.
……
kitchen.
While waiting for the water to boil, Lin Zhiyi was processing the vegetables she had just bought by the sink.
Hearing the water boiling, she was about to turn around to make tea when she heard a familiar voice.
"I come."
It’s Sang Ran.
Lin Zhiyi nodded and lowered his head to continue preparing the dishes.
Behind him, Sang Ran opened the tea can and poured the tea leaves into the cup.
"Zhiyi, am I really that bad?"
"No, don't think too much about it." Lin Zhiyi didn't stop his hands and looked like he didn't care at all.
"I'm sorry, I don't know what's wrong with me." Sang Ran said a little dejectedly.
Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi accidentally plucked a handful of vegetable leaves.
"Xiao Ran, you really think too much." She smiled.
Sang Ran turned around and stared at her for a long time: "I know."
Neither of them mentioned why, which is the proper courtesy between adults.
Sang Ran made the tea and shouted to the door.
"Brother, help me carry it, I'll help Zhiyi with the dishes."
"it is good."
Sang Li stood at the kitchen door and took the tray. Seeing the harmony in the kitchen, he breathed a sigh of relief.
With Sang Ran's help, Lin Zhiyi cooks much faster.
When she was about to serve the soup, Sang Ran suddenly came over.
"Zhiyi, I'm here mainly to give you gifts."
"Gift?"
"Yes, Sanye and I wanted to thank you for designing such beautiful wedding rings for us. Sanye said it suits us very well. After all, it is something we will wear for the rest of our lives, and we both value it very much."
Sang Ran raised her hand with the diamond ring on it and gestured.
Lin Zhiyi's hand froze, and the soup spilled on the back of her hand. The pain made her numb.
She was afraid that Sang Ran would notice something, so she pretended to wash her hands and rinsed them with her back to Sang Ran.
"No need, as long as you like it, it's what I should do."
"No, I do. Wait for me."
Sang Ran walked out of the kitchen and came back in with her bag.
She lowered her head to search for her bag, and suddenly she lost her grip and the bag fell to the ground. A box of things fell out of the bag, and the contents were scattered everywhere.
Hearing the sound, Lin Zhiyi didn't care about the pain in his hand and immediately went to help Sang Ran pick up the things.
When she squatted down, she found all kinds of pills on the ground.
It is no exaggeration to say that even though Lin Zhiyi has been going to the hospital frequently recently, she has never taken so many medicines.
She was surprised and asked, "Is this all yours?"
Sang Ran smiled bitterly: "Well, a week's supply is about a dozen pills a day. When I had my limb amputated, I rolled around in pain from the phantom limb, and I took even more medicine than these."
"Sorry, I shouldn't have asked such a question." Lin Zhiyi felt that she had brought up her sad memories.
"It's okay, it's all over. Besides, I did it willingly. When I saved Master San, I even thought that if only one of us could survive, I would be willing to die for him. Fortunately, we are both fine. Now we can finally have a happy ending after all the hardships, don't you think? Zhiyi."
Sang Ran grabbed Lin Zhiyi's wrist. Her force was not strong, but she was exerting force all the time.
Lin Zhiyi raised her eyes and met her expectant eyes.
I immediately understood the profound meaning of her words.
"Yes." Lin Zhiyi nodded, hiding the self-mockery and sarcasm in his eyes.
In fact, Sang Ran was worrying too much. Who doesn’t know how good Gong Chen is to her?
But this is also because Sang Ran loves Gong Chen too much.
After hearing the answer, Sang Ran took out a small box from her bag and handed it to Lin Zhiyi.
She smiled and said, "Zhiyi, thank you."
Lin Zhiyi held the box, feeling a little overwhelmed.
Just then, Gong Chen and Sang Li from the restaurant saw that the two men had not come out of the kitchen for a long time, so they came over to check.
"What's going on?" Gong Chen frowned and looked at Lin Zhiyi.
Sang Ran stood up and held Gong Chen: "It's not Zhiyi's fault, it may be that I stood for too long and didn't hold the bag firmly for a while, so the medicine fell out."
Lin Zhiyi stood there in a daze. It turned out that he looked at her like that because he was worried that she would bully Sang Ran.
She clutched the box, smiled mockingly, and said no more.
Sang Ran leaned slightly towards Gong Chen: "The kitchen is relatively small, let's go sit down first, and don't cause trouble for Zhiyi."
"Ah."
Gong Chen looked at Lin Zhiyi, and still helped Sang Ran out of the kitchen.
Sang Li walked up to Lin Zhiyi and asked, "Are you okay?"
Lin Zhiyi stuffed the box into Sang Li's hands and said casually, "Xiao Ran is so polite, but I can't accept it. Please help me return it to her."
Sang Li opened the box and found a pair of pearl earrings.
It's not expensive and is a good gift for friends to give to each other.
Lin Zhiyi is not someone who does not understand the ways of the world. If she refuses so firmly, something must have happened.
"Xiao Ran..."
"No, let's eat first."
Lin Zhiyi interrupted Sang Li, picked up the soup and walked out of the kitchen.
Sang Ran did not say anything wrong. The bond between her and Gong Chen was too deep. How could outsiders compare to it?
The meal was eaten in unusual silence.
After finishing the meal, Lin Zhiyi got up and cleaned up, saying calmly, "I have something else to do in the afternoon, so I won't keep you here."
It's obviously an order to expel the guest.
Sang Ran wanted to say something, but Sang Li spoke first: "Okay, Xiao Ran, you and Master San go downstairs first."
"Yeah." Sang Ran pursed her lips and forced a smile.
Sang Ran and Gong Chen stood up and walked towards the entrance.
Lin Zhiyi didn't see them off, but quietly cleaned up the dishes.
At this moment, a deep gaze fell on her back, but she still did not look back, but just clenched her chopsticks until that gaze was blocked by the door.
She put the dishes in the kitchen sink and when she came out she found Sang Li was still there.
"What's wrong?" she inquired.
"You don't look well." Sang Li stared at her face and spoke slowly.
Lin Zhiyi forced a smile and said, "It's okay. Just take a nap in the afternoon."
Seeing that she didn't want to continue chatting, Sang Li didn't force her and nodded, "Then I'll go first."
Lin Zhiyi stepped forward to see him off.
When she reached the entrance, Sang Li held onto the cabinet while changing her shoes and accidentally dropped her bag that had been placed on the cabinet to the ground.
A pile of information fell out.
When Sang Li picked it up, he glanced at it and said with a bitter smile: "I thought you would consider me first, but I didn't expect...you plan to go for further studies?"
Lin Zhiyi took back the information embarrassedly, which was all information about foreign schools.
“I want to do my job well first.”
I thought that after she said this, Sang Li would give up.
Unexpectedly, he slowly approached her across the stack of documents in front of her, his eyes slightly lowered, with endless affection in his eyes.
"Zhiyi, I respect your choice, but my beauty won't make you lose your ambition."
The implication is that you can date and study at the same time.
"You...don't joke with me."
Lin Zhiyi subconsciously hugged the information tightly.
Sang Li leaned forward and said solemnly: "Even if you want to use me, please consider me first."
Lin Zhiyi paused for a moment and felt like his heart skipped a beat.
