Chapter 106 -106: Car Accident
After hearing Liu He’s words, Lin Zhiyi’s mind was in total disarray.
She couldn’t think of anyone whose initials were LH.
After much consideration, she could only say, “Mom, could you keep an eye out for me and definitely tell me the next time they have a get-together?”
Liu He didn’t immediately agree, her voice revealing unease, “Zhiyi, what exactly are you trying to do? Haven’t you always wanted to stay away from Song Wanqiu and the others?”
Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips, stood up, and walked to the window to look at the stars in the sky.
Indeed, that had been her desire.
Because she had promised Xingxing to become a happy jewelry designer and to rise higher and higher, to make up for past regrets.
So her only thought had always been to break free from her fate.
To fulfill her and Xingxing’s wish.
But when she lay in the hospital bed listening to Gong Chen threaten her with favoritism towards Song Wanqiu, as blood spread from her lower body, it felt like she was reliving the pain of losing Xingxing.
If she hadn’t taken the birth control pill back then, her Xingxing would now be but a pool of blood.
She could no longer suppress the seeds of hatred; she couldn’t forget Song Wanqiu’s smug face.
Song Wanqiu, since you like to provoke so much, then taste the pain of losing what you cherish the most!
Lin Zhiyi closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, they were filled with an unmatched calmness, “Mom, don’t think too much, I just feel that our situation is a bit unstable. Having a little leverage in hand for precaution wouldn’t hurt.”
Liu He didn’t overthink it and even felt that Lin Zhiyi had great foresight.
“You’re right, I’ll keep an eye on Liu Xinna. It’s getting late, you should go to sleep. Your uncle received a call and went out, and he has yet to come back, which is keeping me from sleeping too.”
“Didn’t you call to ask?”
Lin Zhiyi lay back on the bed, her voice carrying concern.
Liu He replied indifferently, “Couldn’t get through, perhaps some emergency at work came up. It has happened before; I’ll wait a little longer.”
“Mm, don’t wait up too late.”
After advising her, Lin Zhiyi hung up the phone, closed her eyes, and prepared to sleep.
In the middle of the night.
Lin Zhiyi was sleeping in a daze when her phone vibrated beside her pillow.
She opened her eyes and groped for her phone before answering, “Hello?”
“Zhiyi! You need to come to the hospital quickly.”
Hearing the voice on the other end, Lin Zhiyi immediately sat up in bed.
“Uncle? What happened to you? Why are you at the hospital?”
“It’s not me, it’s Gong Yan—he’s still unconscious and has been calling your name, so I called you,” said Gong Shiyan helplessly.
“Big Brother? What happened to him?” Lin Zhiyi was already getting out of bed as she spoke.
“He was in a car accident on the way back from a business trip. To prevent his mother from worrying, his secretary called me.”
“I—I’ll be right there.”
Lin Zhiyi hung up and rushed to the door, throwing on a coat she found hanging in the entryway before racing to the hospital.
By the time she arrived at the hospital, Gong Yan had been transferred from the emergency room back to his ward.
She met Gong Shiyan at the entrance to the ward.
“Uncle, how’s Big Brother doing?”
“Arm fractured, a dozen or so minor abrasions, but thankfully no vital areas were harmed, just needs some rest. He just woke up—you go in, I’ll go and ask the doctor about his ongoing treatment.”
“Mm.”
Lin Zhiyi replied with a nod and opened the door to walk into the ward.
Hearing the sound, Gong Yan weakly raised his gaze and even smiled when he saw her.
“Zhiyi, why are you here? It’s not a big deal.”
Gong Yan’s originally fair and handsome face was covered with a large abrasion, looking quite horrifying.
His arm was in a cast, making it difficult for him even to get up.
Lin Zhiyi hurriedly approached and reached out her hand but didn’t dare to touch him, fearing she might hurt him.
“Big brother…”
Lin Zhiyi’s nose felt sore, and her heart filled with even more guilt.
If it weren’t for her, Gong Yan wouldn’t have ended up like this.
Gong Yan looked at her, reached out to pull her to sit by the bed, and raised his hand to wipe the corner of her eye.
The temperature of the late autumn night was very low. Lin Zhiyi was lightly dressed, her hair somewhat disheveled from running all the way, with a few strands hanging on her slightly damp eyelashes, making her reddened, moist eyes appear even more moving and captivating.
His hand lingered on her cheek with a reluctance to let go, he reassured her with a faint smile, “Really, I’m fine. Should I get down and walk around a bit?”
Lin Zhiyi quickly reached out and held his hand, stopping him, “Don’t move around. You’re an adult and still joking around.”
He stared at Lin Zhiyi and smiled without a word, but his gaze swept past her for a moment towards something behind her.
Lin Zhiyi sensed something and was just about to turn around when Gong Yan seemed to lose his strength and collapsed toward her.
Instinctively, she reached out and caught Gong Yan.
Gong Yan took advantage of the moment to embrace her, gently patting her back and whispered, “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”
Lin Zhiyi felt it was just for comfort, nothing serious, so she didn’t push him away.
But the next second, Gong Yan’s embrace grew tighter, his breath fell on the side of her face, laced with a trace of wistfulness.
“Zhiyi, when I had the car accident, I was really scared. I was afraid I’d never see you again. I was in such pain, I could only shout your name, never expecting to open my eyes and find you right in front of me. I really missed you so much.”
After Lin Zhiyi had previously dodged Gong Yan’s hints, this was his first time declaring his feelings so bluntly.
She was somewhat at a loss, her hand moved slightly, subconsciously wanting to push Gong Yan away.
However, Gong Yan held her firmly and pleaded in a low voice, “Zhiyi, don’t push me away, okay?”
Lin Zhiyi’s hand paused in mid-air and finally hesitantly rested on his back, “Okay.”
Moments later, Gong Yan slightly loosened his hold on her, but still didn’t completely let go.
His uninjured hand brushed over her back, gently threading through her hair on her shoulder, and cupped her cheek.
He leaned in slowly towards her, his breathing quick and fervent.
Lin Zhiyi, realizing what he was about to do, was momentarily stunned and forgot to push him away. By the time she reacted, his lips were nearly on hers.
The unfamiliar breath, the unfamiliar warmth, even Gong Yan’s familiar handsome face seemed strange to her, stirring an odd feeling within her that made her rise and retreat in a panic.
Gong Yan remained still, a faint bitter smile on his face.
Lin Zhiyi clenched her clothes, about to speak and explain, when a loud bang came from outside the door.
Then came the nurse’s inquest, “Who’s there? Someone’s made a dent in the trash can.”
Lin Zhiyi immediately said, “Big brother, I, I’m going to check on Uncle. You rest first.”
Without waiting for Gong Yan to respond, she fled the ward.
She walked, patting her cheeks, hoping Big Brother wouldn’t misunderstand her; she really didn’t want to harm him anymore.
After calming down, Lin Zhiyi arrived at the doctor’s office but couldn’t find Gong Shiyan.
After making a round, she eventually spotted Gong Shiyan’s figure in the smoking area in the corner.
Just as she was about to greet him, she noticed another imposing silhouette standing opposite Gong Shiyan as she drew closer.
Gong Chen.
Under the light, he smoked his cigarette, the white mist swirling around him, making his handsome face appear somewhat ethereal and revealing a hint of a frosty chill.
“Lao San, Gong Yan is still injured, and you let him leave, isn’t that a bit too…”
Gong Shiyan furrowed his brows, his tone full of compassion.

“He must go. I won’t keep him here.”
Gong Chen narrowed his eyes, his whole being cold and unfeeling.
