Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight-Chapter 331: Together, It’s Like Fate
Chapter 331: Chapter 331: Together, It’s Like Fate
Lin Zhiyi avoided the sunlight and raised her hand to turn Sang Li’s cheek.
"Mr. Sang, you’re not trying to come up with an excuse in advance, are you?"
Sang Li slightly raised his eyebrows: "It seems I must hit every target today."
He looked ahead and aimed at the balloons on the rack.
Bang bang bang... nine shots, all hit.
Together with Sang Li’s gentlemanly demeanor, he attracted quite a few spectators in an instant.
The stall owner also seized the opportunity, immediately clapping his hands and saying, "Young man, you’re so good, if the last shot hits, I’ll upgrade you to a big gift."
While speaking, he took out the largest plush toy from behind the rack.
A capybara.
The owner stuffed the toy into Lin Zhiyi’s hands: "Cute, isn’t it? This is not some inferior quality meant to deceive people, feel this fur, it’s absolutely good."
Lin Zhiyi, unconsciously stroking the toy, was entranced by its soft touch, freezing in place.
It was like returning to a certain night.
It was lively just like now.
Sang Li thought she liked it very much, nodding to the owner, "It’s a deal."
The crowd suddenly became noisy, with people cheering and clapping.
By the time Lin Zhiyi came back to her senses, Sang Li had already aimed at the balloons and she couldn’t stop him in time.
Watching this scene, her heart inexplicably tightened and also felt a bit complicated.
However, just as Sang Li fired, a six or seven-year-old boy squeezed through to watch the excitement and accidentally bumped into Sang Li’s leg.
Sang Li missed his shot.
The crowd expressed their pity with a collective sigh.
Looking at the toy pulled away from in front of her, Lin Zhiyi felt like it was all meant to be.
Sang Li put down the toy gun, walked over to her, and said, "You like it that much? Shall I try again?"
Lin Zhiyi held him back: "No need, I don’t like it that much, just having fun is enough, let’s go look at other things."
"Okay."
Sang Li escorted Lin Zhiyi out of the crowd.
Taking advantage of the crowd, the owner shouted, "Whoever beats this handsome guy, the biggest toy is theirs."
Many boys with their girlfriends were eager to try, thus business was coming.
Lin Zhiyi saw Sang Li frown and tugged on his clothes to comfort him: "How about... we go back and ask the owner for some advertising fee? Your role as a live billboard shouldn’t be free after all."
Sang Li laughed out loud: "That makes sense. I am indeed quite expensive."
Lin Zhiyi led him towards another place: "There are drinks over there, I’ll treat you."
"Hmm."
Sang Li walked with her to that spot.
Lin Zhiyi bought two cups of freshly squeezed orange juice; while waiting, the shooting game stall erupted into noise again.
Sang Li glanced at it: "Looks like someone got the grand prize."
Just then, a girl ran over and tapped the girl in front of Lin Zhiyi.
"Hurry up, it’s a handsome guy!"
"Go away, I’m not falling for that, you said the same thing before we came here, and look what happened." The speaking girl glanced at Sang Li.
Lin Zhiyi smirked secretly.
Sang Li turned his head to look deeply at her: "You seem somewhat aware that you’re a girlfriend."
Lin Zhiyi leaned close and whispered to him: "Who doesn’t like looking at handsome guys?"
"So you mean... you’re complimenting me?" Sang Li said thoughtfully.
At this, Lin Zhiyi laughed outright.
The girl in front seemed embarrassed and quickly averted her gaze, grabbed her juice, and ran off with her companion.
Lin Zhiyi followed the figures of the two girls with her gaze, scanning the crowd. As she turned around, her body subconsciously froze.
She immediately turned her head searching around, the bustle gradually dispersed, and everything returned to normal.
"What’s wrong?" Sang Li asked.
"It’s nothing." Lin Zhiyi turned back, just when the juice was ready. She tasted it and squinted her eyes, "Sweet and sour, really nice, have a taste."
Having said this, she took another cup and brought it to Sang Li’s lips to feed him.
Sang Li was slightly taken aback, smiled faintly and took a sip, looking at Lin Zhiyi, "I think it’s not sour at all, just sweet."
Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.
The clerk leaned on the counter: "Hey, do you need anything else?"
This class really gets on my nerves.
Lin Zhiyi noticed the gaze of the sales clerk and immediately shook her head and hurried away.
Sang Li followed her steps, glancing briefly at a spot not far away.
After browsing the market, Lin Zhiyi and Sang Li exchanged the stamp collection card for a bucket of laundry detergent.
Sang Li, in his impeccable suit, carrying the large bucket of laundry detergent, looked somewhat speechless yet amused.
The two chatted and laughed as they returned to the car.
Zhou Zhao was leaning against the car smoking, and upon seeing them, he immediately stubbed out his cigarette and opened the car door.
As soon as Lin Zhiyi got into the car, she was surprised to see a toy on the back seat.
Capybara.
"This is..."
Zhou Zhao explained, "I just strolled around and bought it because it looked fun. Here you go, Miss Lin, consider it a celebration of your discharge from the hospital."
So that’s how it was.
Indeed, what a coincidence.
Lin Zhiyi smiled, saying, "Thank you."
Zhou Zhao rubbed his nose and closed the car door.
On the way back, Lin Zhiyi picked up the toy, and the moment she caressed it, her hand paused.
The texture was exactly like what the stall owner had let her touch.
She continued to stroke it gently, turning her head to look out of the car window without saying a word.
Thinking back to the hustle and bustle of the market and the fleeting figure, she suddenly understood something.
After arriving home, Lin Zhiyi got out of the car and waved goodbye to Sang Li, then turned and went upstairs.
In the car, Zhou Zhao exclaimed, "Miss Lin, your toy..."
Sang Li immediately closed the car window, "Don’t yell. She’s not deaf, can’t you hear? She doesn’t want it."
Zhou Zhao listened, immediately thought of something, and turned to Sang Li with a chuckle.
"Young master, I was just doing as asked."
"Chen Jin? Did he drug you? Why are you so obedient?" Sang Li said irritably.
"I thought it was just a toy, so I gave it. Besides, it was under my name, Miss Lin shouldn’t overthink," Zhou Zhao explained.
Sang Li looked up at the lit house and spoke indifferently, "It’s already painful enough to numb oneself while being sober; let’s not remind her of the past anymore."
Zhou Zhao lowered his gaze, "Sorry."
Sang Li said nothing more, setting the toy aside and asked, "Did Chen Jin contact you just to give the toy?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhao immediately looked up.
"That bodyguard was telling the truth last time; they have already begun to act."
Sang Li sneered, "Their appetite is really growing."

Lin Zhiyi returned home to find that her house had already been cleaned.
She went straight into her room and lay on her bed, her gaze falling on the locked cabinet in the corner.
After looking at it for a while, she got up and opened the cabinet, taking something out.
Capybara wristband.
She flicked it hard onto her wrist, and it securely encircled her wrist.
The fur was a bit stiff and sparsely placed, yet it was funny.
She curled up on the floor, holding her knees, looking at the thing on her wrist and couldn’t help laughing bitterly.
Moments later, Lin Zhiyi tidied up the thing again and locked it up.
The next morning, she was woken up by the doorbell.
Upon opening the door, Sister Zhou walked in with a hot pot.
"Haven’t eaten yet? Good thing I made this for you, eat quickly while it’s hot, and after eating we’ll go to the supermarket."
"Sister Zhou, aren’t you supposed to be working today?" Lin Zhiyi said, surprised.
A workaholic actually taking a day off on a weekday?
Sister Zhou waved her hand, "I couldn’t even use up all my holidays, so I just took a day off to relax a bit."
"Alright then."
After breakfast, the two headed to a nearby supermarket.
The supermarket was having a promotion recently with lots of samples; Sister Zhou went to grab some juice while Lin Zhiyi stood by trying the samples.
Suddenly, a figure stopped beside her.
