Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 443

Chapter 443: Chapter 443: Sleep with me or sleep on the bed?

"Don’t stop sending whatever you did today." Gong Chen pressed down on her body and continued to kiss her.

But in the next second, Lin Zhiyi felt something sticky on her lips.

"You’re bleeding."

She nervously pushed Gong Chen away and immediately grabbed a few tissues from the table to press against his nose.

"Third Young Master, what’s wrong?"

Gong Chen frowned, "It’s nothing, Jing City is too dry. It might be from waiting for the pastries in the wind just now."

Lin Zhiyi looked stunned, "You queued up to buy it yourself?"

"Hmm." Gong Chen changed the subject, "Get me a glass of water."

"Alright, wait a moment."

Lin Zhiyi quickly ran out of the room.

Once he confirmed she had left, Gong Chen took out a very small bottle from his inner pocket and poured a pill into his mouth.

While waiting for the medication to take effect, he clenched his fist, the veins on the back of his hand protruding under a thin layer of cold sweat.

When Lin Zhiyi entered the room, he immediately returned to normal.

Besides the water, Lin Zhiyi had something else in her hand.

"Xingxing’s fever patch, let’s lower your temperature first. I’ll call Li Huan later and have him come check on you. This is your second nosebleed."

"Have him come and laugh at me?" Gong Chen calmly put down the tissue, "No more bleeding."

Lin Zhiyi looked and indeed, there was no more nosebleed.

"Then let me put a fever patch on you."

As Lin Zhiyi tore open the fever patch, Gong Chen was already taking off his shirt.

She hurriedly stopped him, "No, you don’t need to take it off."

"It’ll be easier for you to stick it on," his voice was hoarse, "I’m indeed a bit uncomfortable, stick more of them."

Lin Zhiyi thought he was teasing her again, but when she touched him, his body was scorching hot.

Following the instructions on the manual, she placed the patch on Gong Chen.

There was an extra one, so she considered sticking it on Gong Chen’s back.

As she walked behind him, his back muscles instantly tensed up, very beautiful, yet exuding a dangerous aura.

It always made her feel as if Gong Chen might attack her at any moment.

She asked in confusion, "What’s wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Gong Chen’s shoulders slowly relaxed, "Nothing."

Lin Zhiyi didn’t pay much attention, searching online for locations that could expedite the cooling down process.

She placed her hand on the man’s shoulder, smoothing it down to his nape.

She didn’t notice at all how the man’s breath was becoming more erratic.

Lin Zhiyi found the spot and placed the cold fever patch.

Mixed sensations of hot and cold, Gong Chen frowned, a low hum escaping from his throat.

Lin Zhiyi was worried the patch might not stick properly and smoothed the edges a few times.

When she pulled her gaze back, she noticed something seemed to be on Gong Chen’s lower back.

As her hand moved downward, the man’s spine twitched, his waist contracting, causing her to fall into his chest.

Gong Chen narrowed his eyes, "If it were someone else, they’d already be dead."

"Hmm? What do you mean?" Lin Zhiyi asked in confusion.

"Nothing, I’m much better now." Gong Chen didn’t want to scare Lin Zhiyi.

Lin Zhiyi nodded, "Then you should sleep, I’ll squeeze in with Xingxing."

Gong Chen frowned, and as she got up, he hooked her fingers, teasing her palm.

"You’re going to leave a sick person here alone?"

Indeed, it wasn’t quite right.

Lin Zhiyi thought for a moment, "Then I’ll find two blankets and sleep on the floor."

Gong Chen was too lazy to argue, directly pushing her onto the bed.

"Sleep in the bed, sleep with me, your choice."

"...The bed! The bed!"

Lin Zhiyi pointed at the bed.

As soon as she lay down, a burning body pressed against her back, the temperature alarming.

She worriedly said, "How about calling Li Huan?"

"Just caught a chill, sleeping will be fine." Gong Chen said hoarsely.

"When did you become so fragile?"

"Zhiyi, are you insinuating I need to prove myself?" his hand caressed Lin Zhiyi’s hand.

"Sleep."

Lin Zhiyi immediately closed her eyes.

After she fell asleep, the man behind her suffered, only holding her tightly.

...

The next morning.

When Lin Zhiyi woke up, Gong Chen was still asleep, so she didn’t disturb him.

The two of them and Xingxing went downstairs, heading to the nearby mall.

After shopping, Lin Zhiyi treated Liao Yi to a meal.

Just as they ordered, Gong Chen unexpectedly called her on a video call.

It was probably to see Xingxing.

Lin Zhiyi pulled Xingxing close, answered the video call, and lowered the camera to focus on her face.

On the screen, Gong Chen sat at his desk, with Chen Jin handing over documents next to him.

"Have you eaten?"

"About to eat," Xingxing said cutely.

Father and daughter gazed at each other for a while.

Gong Chen asked softly, "Where’s mommy?"

Liao Yi chuckled, whispering, "Zhiyi, he’s asking about you, Third Young Master wants to see you."

Lin Zhiyi’s ears turned red swiftly.

She adjusted the phone angle, meeting Gong Chen’s gaze, "What’s up?"

"I just wanted to see you..."

"If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up." Lin Zhiyi interrupted him.

Gong Chen closed the file in front of him, speaking calmly, "I might come home late today, don’t wait for me."

"Got it, our food is coming, you..."

Lin Zhiyi opened her mouth, noticing Liao Yi watching her amusedly, feeling embarrassed to continue.

Liao Yi laughed, pulling Xingxing along, "I’ll take Xingxing to the fish pond to feed the fish, you chat first."

Once alone, Lin Zhiyi carefully looked at the man’s face on the screen.

"Remember to take your medicine," she reminded.

"Concerned about me?"

"Hanging up." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Lin Zhiyi ended the video call and called Liao Yi and Xingxing back for the meal.

...

Office.

After packing the documents, Chen Jin spoke sternly, "Li Huan is ready."

Gong Chen’s calm face gradually turned somber.

"Mm."
