Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight-Chapter 1088: The Second Strange Point

Hearing the voice, Lin Zhiyi turned around in surprise.

"Third Young Master?" she lowered her voice and looked at the man approaching.

Gong Chen was dressed casually, wearing sunglasses, looking like a tourist in Hai City.

He walked with his hands in his pockets.

Lin Zhiyi asked, "Why are you here?"

Gong Chen replied, "I’ve always been here; it’s just that everyone’s eyes are on the banquet, so there’s not much attention on me as a tourist."

That’s reality, even if the person is Gong Chen.

Without the title of Third Young Master, even if he sits among the crowd, people just see him as having a remarkable aura and being handsome.

If he were Third Young Master, others would have gathered around him long ago.

Lin Zhiyi continued, "Third Young Master, did you notice something?"

Gong Chen nodded, "I also noticed the odd behavior of the waiter, conveniently asked Chen Jin about it, and followed that waiter around."

Lin Zhiyi hurriedly asked, "Where did she go?"

"She only spoke to one guest; I think you might know this person."

"Who?"

"President Yang, Mrs. Yang’s husband, but the two said a few words and then separated," Gong Chen explained.

"What happened afterward?"

"Zhiyi, my current status doesn’t allow me to act freely, but rest assured, I informed Jia Xin. Today is their family’s banquet; he won’t allow anything to happen. He should have gone to find President Yang," Gong Chen explained.

Lin Zhiyi thought of something and quickly said, "Earlier, Mrs. Yang couldn’t find President Yang, but Bai Hui said President Yang was waiting for someone, which means Bai Hui lied."

At this moment, Chu Yin realized the people Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen were discussing were related to her.

"Wait a minute, I don’t know President Yang at all, we... how is that possible?"

"Your sister doesn’t need a reason to be bad; does she need a cause and effect to harm you?" Lin Zhiyi retorted.

"Seems like it," Chu Yin nodded.

"Mrs. Yang values her marriage greatly, and President Yang is under her control. The two of them built their position from scratch. Many want to see them fail; Mrs. Yang definitely won’t tolerate such things happening. That’s enough to overwhelm you." Lin Zhiyi explained.

Chu Yin held her forehead, "So Bai Hui and Chu Wu’s target today is me. I just don’t understand how they’re so certain Mr. Sang will bring me here?"

Lin Zhiyi looked at Gong Chen opposite her, pondering, "That’s the second strange point I mentioned. However, I’m not sure now; we might as well go along with it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jia Xin called Gong Chen.

"As you thought, President Yang was drugged; judging by the look on his face, he was poisoned, but the effects haven’t fully set in yet."

"Okay, first take him away; don’t let anyone see. Leave the rest to us, you just be the good host," Gong Chen instructed.

"Got it."

Having hung up the phone.

Gong Chen looked at Chu Yin, "President Yang is already in place; the next move is yours."

Chu Yin clenched her teeth, "I said she’s someone who won’t give up easily."

Lin Zhiyi immediately said, "Assistant Chen, give Chu Yin a pill."

Chu Yin instantly understood Lin Zhiyi’s intention.

But she was still a little worried, "Should we inform Mr. Sang first?"

"There’s no time," Gong Chen pointed to the banquet hall.

Chu Yin looked to find Bai Hui somehow standing beside Sang Li.

She walked over but probably wouldn’t have the chance to tell Sang Li.

Even sending a message would risk alerting Bai Hui.

Lin Zhiyi said, "Chu Yin, you go over first, I’ll come and find you later. You just need to cooperate with me, and you must take the pill immediately after drinking."

Chu Yin took a deep breath, "Alright."

After saying that, she headed into the banquet hall.

As Lin Zhiyi prepared to enter, Gong Chen held her back.

"Be careful, I’ll find a chance to inform Sang Li."

"Hmm, but there’s something else I need your help with," Lin Zhiyi said.

"What is it?"

"Like this..." Lin Zhiyi whispered in Gong Chen’s ear.

"Alright."

Conversation ended.

Lin Zhiyi also entered the hall.

...

Chu Yin walked to Sang Li’s side.

Just as she expected, she hardly had the time to hint to Sang Li before Bai Hui started causing trouble.

Bai Hui called over a waiter, "Bring Miss Chu a glass of wine, let’s celebrate together with the two of them."

Disguised as a waiter, Chu Wu approached Chu Yin and handed over the glass.

Chu Yin had hoped to delay, but was surprised by another so-called well-wisher.

Mrs. Dai approached with a smile, "How lively, what kind of blessing would it be without me? Isn’t Miss Chu going to drink the toast?"

Others looked at Chu Yin.

Sang Li also noticed the anomaly, glancing around the crowd, staring at the waiter for a few seconds.

Fearing failure of the plan, Chu Yin immediately reached for a glass.

"President Bai, Mrs. Dai, I was just choosing a wine."

"I thought Miss Chu wasn’t willing to drink the toast with us," Mrs. Dai said with a smile.

Bai Hui continued, "Cheers."

Just as Chu Yin was about to raise her glass, Sang Li raised his hand to stop her.

"If you’re not feeling well, I’ll drink it for you."

Chu Yin froze; that wouldn’t do.

Chu Wu would be even more pleased.

She smiled faintly, "It’s okay, cheers."

Before drinking, Lin Zhiyi appeared with a glass.

"I’ll join the fun too."

Bai Hui scrutinized Lin Zhiyi, attempting to see through her.

But Lin Zhiyi remained calm, without a hint of panic.

"Miss Lin, cheers."

"Cheers, President Bai, and... Mrs. Dai," Lin Zhiyi said with a smile.

Mrs. Dai nodded, saying nothing.

Bai Hui and the waiter watched as Chu Yin drank the wine, both showing an imperceptible smile.

After the drink, Chu Yin felt unwell within a minute.

She quickly seized the chance to swallow the pill.

To deceive those opposite her, she still showed signs of endurance.

Moments later, Chu Yin said, "I’m going to the washroom."

Mrs. Dai said, "Why go to the washroom again? Is Miss Chu using it as an excuse?"

Chu Yin pursed her lips. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Sang Li lowered his gaze and said coldly, "Go ahead."

No one else dared to speak further.

Lin Zhiyi also wanted to follow but was stopped by Mrs. Dai.

"Miss Lin, wait a moment; a lady was asking for you, don’t keep her waiting."

Lin Zhiyi looked at Mrs. Dai and nodded with a smile, "Alright. Thank you, Mrs. Dai, for the introduction."

In the conversation, Lin Zhiyi glanced at Sang Li before turning to leave with Mrs. Dai.

As Sang Li turned, Bai Hui took the lead to block him.

"Why is Mr. Sang leaving after chatting for a bit? We still have some questions."

"Oh? Great, I also want to hear your questions," Sang Li said, squinting at Bai Hui.

"Coincidentally, I have questions too."

Jia Xin slowly approached, exchanged a glance with Sang Li.

Bai Hui chuckled, fully supporting Jia Xin’s addition.

After all, it’s the Jia Family’s banquet; Sang Li would definitely give Jia Xin face.

They started chatting.

Bai Hui raised her eyes to a spot, exchanging a gaze with Chu Wu.

Chu Wu put down the tray and turned to leave.

...

Lin Zhiyi was brought by Mrs. Dai to a few ladies.

Chatting enthusiastically.

Mrs. Yang hurried over, "Have you seen Old Yang?"
