Chapter 346 Sorry, I have no choice
"Ms. Ren, I'm not that stupid. You came to my house and pointed a gun at me, not to kill me. Could it be that you really came to eat dessert with me?"
Lin Zhiyi said as she opened the window next to the cabinet.
Ren Xiya asked alertly: "What are you doing?"
"It smells bloody and I don't really want to smell it." Lin Zhiyi said bitterly.
As for the reason, Ren Xiya, as someone who knew what happened that night, definitely knew.
Ren Xiya pursed her lips and stopped talking.
Lin Zhiyi walked up to Ren Xiya carrying a medicine box, slowly squatted down and untied the Band-Aid on her knee.
Looking at the deep wounds on the fair skin, it was hard to tell what the injuries were.
Lin Zhiyi didn't ask any more questions because she knew Ren Xiya wouldn't say anything.
Originally I thought I just needed to stop the bleeding, apply some medicine and bandage it, but I didn't expect that when Lin Zhiyi applied the medicine, he actually wiped out some very fine debris with the cotton swab.
Ren Xiya's legs were shaking in pain, but her face remained firm and she endured it.
Lin Zhiyi was a little confused about Ren Xiya, but she knew very well that Ren Xiya's injuries were not voluntary.
Seeing that the fine hairs on Ren Xiya's legs stood up, Lin Zhiyi simply half-knelt on the ground and blew on her wounds.
"Be patient, you'll be fine soon."
"..."
Ren Xiya stopped shaking instantly and just looked at her intently.
After wrapping the gauze, Lin Zhiyi stood up suddenly. He felt dizzy and his vision went dark. He almost fainted.
Ren Xiya helped her sit on the sofa.
All of a sudden, both of them went from fighting against each other to sitting side by side on the sofa.
Ren Xiya opened the dessert on the table and handed one to Lin Zhiyi.
"Hypoglycemia? Eat something."
"Ah."
Lin Zhiyi was not pretentious. She took the dessert and took a big bite.
Ren Xiya placed the gun on the armrest of the sofa, picked up the dessert and started eating.
She was eating the same thing that Lin Zhiyi had ordered for her last time. It had rich strawberry jam on top and a soft cake base underneath. It was just the right amount of sweetness.
She licked the strawberry jam on her lips and said expressionlessly, "Last time was the first time I ate this kind of cake."
Lin Zhiyi felt a little better from the dizziness and looked at Ren Xiya in confusion.
This is not an expensive dessert and almost all dessert shops have similar strawberry cakes.
She heard from Sang Li that Ren Xiya was the product manager of Gong’s overseas company. Did she want to eat anything?
Perhaps it was because Lin Zhiyi's gaze was too curious, Ren Xiya turned her head and stared at her.
"Don't want to ask anything?"
"Who are you?" Lin Zhiyi asked anyway.
Ren Xiya was stunned at first, and then seemed to have thought of something.
"He really knows you inside out."
"If you don't want to say it, forget it." Lin Zhiyi avoided her answer.
Ren Xiya held the spoon in her hand and put it on her chin: "Are you so afraid to mention him? Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
Lin Zhiyi didn't understand what she meant by saying that.
Ren Xiya took another bite of the dessert, savoring it for a few seconds before slowly speaking: "The lie is that I have nothing to do with Mr. Sang. I was sent by the Gong family to alienate you two. The Third Master knew about this, but deliberately let me do whatever I wanted."
Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi tightly gripped the dessert spoon, vaguely competing with herself.
Ren Xiya continued, "The truth is that he told me to tell you what was said above. I have a deal with Mr. Sang and Mr. San."
"Why?" Lin Zhiyi looked at Ren Xiya in disbelief.
"Maybe he hopes that you and President Sang can get along well, and he will take care of the rest for us." Ren Xiya said lightly, but her tone was full of ridiculousness.
"us?"
Lin Zhiyi turned around and stared at Ren Xiya. She knew that Ren Xiya’s identity must be complicated.
Ren Xiya raised her eyebrows: "As long as I listen to the old man and marry well, the old man is willing to publicly accept me as his goddaughter, change my surname to Gong, and then let me marry in style. Isn't it wonderful? Hahaha..."
As she laughed, her eyes suddenly turned cold.
"But I am his biological daughter."
"No matter how hard I try, my mother can't see it, and neither can he. In the end, my only value is to get married."
Lin Zhiyi stood there in shock. When he raised his eyes, he met a pair of eyes filled with sadness.
She had seen such a look in Gong Chen's eyes before.
In a trance, Lin Zhiyi's chin was suddenly lifted up by Ren Xiya.
"The old man secretly captured my mother and brought her back. He found me to discuss cooperation. He helped me rescue my mother, and I cooperated with Mr. Sang to conceal the truth."
"I really admired him for being willing to work with me, until I saw you."
Lin Zhiyi felt a slight pain in her jaw. When she wanted to struggle, she saw Ren Xiya picked up the gun again.
In an instant, she dared not move anymore.
She knew how painful death was, so she didn't want to die, she could only delay the time as much as possible.
She tilted her head back and asked carefully, "Why?"
Ren Xiya said coldly: "Because the woman that Second Master and the others saw hanging out with the old man in the office was my mother."
"He was actually willing to negotiate with me for you? He was even willing to give us a large sum of money to continue living abroad."
"He even asked me to help you and Mr. Sang clear up the misunderstanding. You really are his weak spot. If anyone wants to catch you, he will definitely die. No wonder the old man won't let you go."
"No!" Lin Zhiyi retorted loudly, "You are talking nonsense! Were you sent by him? I won't believe a word you say! I tell you, I have nothing to do with the Gong family anymore!"
Ren Xiya let go of Lin Zhiyi and laughed at her naivety.
"Do you really think that if you say it's okay, the Gong family will let you go?"
"If it was so easy to break away, my mother and I wouldn't have been controlled by the old man for so many years."
Every time Ren Xiya mentioned her mother, there was a complex emotion on her face, which made the scars on her face look a little weird.
She played with the gun in her hand: "Do you think my mother was born a mistress? My mother comes from an educated family, a former talented woman of Z University, young, beautiful and smart, and was hired by Gong's with a high salary."
"Just because she was favored by a man old enough to be her father, she was like a fish trapped in a small pond, unable to escape. She could only be hooked and baited by the man, and willingly broke up with her family and became a mistress."
"In the first few years after I was sent abroad, the man ignored us. My mother came to her senses and negotiated with the man about my alimony. She planned to study and work again."
"But that man was very arrogant and selfish. He was afraid that my mother would get out of control and use my status as an illegitimate daughter to tarnish his identity. So when my mother was in a bad mental state, he lied to her that she was addicted to drugs."
"Over the years, she has become more and more dependent on men. She says it's love, but in fact it's just an excuse for her own depravity."
Ren Xiya pointed at the dessert on the table and said with a wry smile, "When I was about to succeed in helping her quit drugs for the sixth time, she said she wanted to buy me a cake to celebrate her birthday, but then she turned around and secretly went to meet a man."
"You think I'm stupid, but do you know how helpless it is to be found by a man no matter where you run to, and then watch your mother being controlled by someone and kneeling down to beg for help from you over and over again?"
"It's like having an invisible chain tied around your neck. In the eyes of those high up, everything about you is exposed."
"Third Master is right. My mother and I are not even sacrifices of the Gong family. We are just the possessions held in the hands of that man."
After hearing this, Lin Zhiyi's breath was choked, and his body stiffened as he looked at Ren Xiya: "Why are you telling me this?"
Ren Xiya lowered her eyes and smiled softly, stroking the gun with her fingertips.
"We all have an old saying that you should die clearly and clearly. My mom betrayed me before I got on the plane. My dad gave me a box with a gun and a picture of you with a cross on it."
With a click, the gun was loaded.
"Lin Zhiyi, I'm sorry, I don't have a choice."
