Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 716

Chapter 716: Chapter 716: The Focus Is You

Lin Zhiyi was incredibly surprised.

Everyone present heard the man’s words.

Especially those workers were contemplating that phrase from Old Huang, "Life is short."

No one expected Gong Chen to actually find a flaw.

The man was unsteady in his breath, unable to believe he was so exposed in front of Gong Chen.

The cigarette in his hand, smoke wafting, released a special scent.

Lin Zhiyi smelled the scent, glanced down, and immediately understood Gong Chen’s intention.

This man still wasn’t telling the truth.

She thought for a moment and, cooperating with Gong Chen’s words, cautiously advised, "If you don’t speak, the police will investigate. When that happens, your lies will only harm yourself."

The man hesitated for a while and sighed heavily.

"I, I didn’t tell the whole truth."

"Old Huang said his family couldn’t take it anymore. Both his children are sick, especially the younger son with some heart disease requiring a lot of money. He and his wife were exhausted from caring for their two children."

"Yesterday he said he needed to gather money for surgery for his younger son and change his daughter’s medication. Afterward, he expressed some sentiments and got himself drunk."

"Today, before the incident, he suddenly said that I should stick with the company, that we’d definitely make money in the future, and soon after, the incident happened."

"I didn’t dare say anything for fear you’d think he was trying to extort money, and then you wouldn’t compensate him. If it was merely an accident, the company and you would compensate."

"His family is really pitiful."

The man clenched his fist.

Lin Zhiyi was stunned, as Xingxing also had heart problems. The expenses over these more than three years went without saying.

Just the surgery costs are hard for ordinary families to bear.

Pre and post-operation require careful and caring attention.

Gong Chen found professional caregivers for Lin Zhiyi, so she’s quite relieved.

Ordinary families cannot hire caregivers costing hundreds or even thousands per day.

But!

"That’s no excuse for lying. He’s having a hard time, and we can all lend a hand, but by hiding this, my studio is labeled as indifferent to life even before it opens. Am I not pitiful? Are the designers not pitiful? Is your company not pitiful? Aren’t other workers pitiful?"

"If something truly happens, who would hire you?"

The man’s face turned ashen; he clearly hadn’t considered all this.

"I..."

"You don’t need to explain. What we need now is to solve the problem," Lin Zhiyi interrupted his explanation.

"That’s all I know," the man lowered his head.

Gong Chen stepped forward, with a cold voice, "You just said that Old Huang started behaving strangely yesterday and was absent-minded today?"

"Yes." The man dared not hide anymore, nodding repeatedly, "He was never like this before, very conscientious at work. He said he had to work more to earn more."

"Did he meet anyone yesterday?" Gong Chen continued to ask.

After recalling, the man shook his head.

"No, but he took some time off yesterday to accompany his son to the hospital."

Upon hearing this, Gong Chen looked at Lin Zhiyi.

Lin Zhiyi asked, "So, after coming back from the hospital, he was acting strange?"

"Yes. But when asked, he didn’t say anything," the man confirmed.

So the issue remained with Old Huang.

But he was already dead.

At this moment, the police stepped forward. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"We’ll go to the hospital to get clear answers. For now, work here cannot proceed."

"Alright."

Lin Zhiyi looked around, feeling a sense of loss in her heart.

It was about to be finished, yet she had to close before opening.

The police saw through her thoughts and comforted, "Miss Lin, this is just temporary. Once the investigation is clear, the truth will be restored to you."

"Thank you."

Lin Zhiyi nodded and left the studio with Gong Chen and others.

Then watched the door being closed with her own eyes.

After sending off the police and workers, the designer also went back to report the situation.

Lin Zhiyi left in a daze.

Passed by another car.

Inside the car.
