Chapter 15: Chapter 15 Lin Zhiyi Gets Arrested Chapter 15 -15 Lin Zhiyi Gets Arrested Lin Zhiyi was forced to follow Gong Chen to Song Wanqiuâs apartment.
Just stepping out of the elevator, she saw scattered bloodstains on the ground and red paint on the door.
Everything was startlingly shocking.
Before Lin Zhiyi could react, Gong Chen had already rushed into the apartment, accompanied by a manâs screams of agony and Song Wanqiuâs cries.
âThird Young Master! Iâm so scared! Iâm afraid...â
The sobs pulled Lin Zhiyiâs thoughts back, and she hurried into the apartment.
What met her eyes was a man lying on the floor, his features vicious, spitting blood, still clutching a dagger tightly in his hand.
Opposite, Song Wanqiu was pressing her bleeding arm, weakly nestled in Gong Chenâs arms, her pretty face full of sorrow.
The man continued to hurl insults at Song Wanqiu, âSlut! So good at climbing into bed, whatâs wrong with making me feel good? Youâre just that kind of woman!â
Song Wanqiu rebutted tearfully, âNo, no, Iâm not...â
The man sneered coldly, âCut the crap! The internet says so! Someone told me youâre easy to sleep with! Plus, there are men coming and going from your house every day, why act all pure and lofty!â
Song Wanqiu gripped Gong Chenâs shirt at his chest in panic, âYou, you... youâve been surveilling me! The only man entering and leaving my house is Third Young Master, why are you slandering me? My home is under surveillance, this can all be checked!â
The man was taken aback, his eyes clearly dodged for a moment.
After noticing, Gong Chen shouted toward the door, âChen Jin.â
Chen Jin appeared swiftly, not giving the man time to react, and completely subdued him onto the floor.
âWho sent you?â
The man was stubborn, spitting out a blob of blood but refusing to speak.
Yet, Lin Zhiyi wasnât sure if it was her misperception, she felt as though the man glanced at her.
Perhaps due to too much betrayal in a past life, her guard was up.
With just one glance, she felt something was off.
Her hand tightened around her purse, subconsciously looking at Gong Chen.
Gong Chen was protecting Song Wanqiu, holding her tightly as if safeguarding a precious treasure.
Just like in a past life, when she and Song Wanqiuâs mother met him, his first reaction was to protect Song Wanqiu and her mother.
While to her, he offered only a cruel warning glance.
Now, he looked down on the man from a superior position, his eyes as black as night, exuding an icy and detached chill, sending shivers down oneâs spine.
The man finally gave in to fear, his eyes filled with terror and shrinking back, struggling to escape.
But he was pinned down by Gong Chenâs foot on his spine, Gong Chen emotionlessly applying more pressure.
The man screamed repeatedly, âAh! Let me go! Iâll talk, Iâll talk...â
Gong Chenâs expression turned frosty, âWho?â
The man shakily lifted his hand, pointing at Lin Zhiyi.
âIt was her! She gave me Song Wanqiuâs address, she also told me I could do anything to Song Wanqiu.â
Lin Zhiyi was stunned.
Song Wanqiu, swaying on the verge of collapse, accused, âZhiyi, how could you do this to me? Just because I exposed your use of fertility drugs at the Gong Family? If this man had his way, my life would be ruined...â
Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi opened her mouth only to be suppressed by an invisible pressure.
A weight on her chest made it hard to breathe, unable to voice her rebuttal.
Suddenly, the man on the floor seized the dagger and sprang up.
He lunged towards Song Wanqiu, âBitch! I should also thank Lin Zhiyi for helping me find you. I detest women like you the most, the promiscuous kind, die!â
âAh! Third Young Master!â Song Wanqiu screamed.
Gong Chen instantly kicked the man towards Lin Zhiyi.
Lin Zhiyi couldnât dodge in time, only able to raise her hand to block, and their eyes met.
She saw a triumphant smile in the manâs eyes.
âAh!â
Lin Zhiyiâs palm was slashed open, blood gushing forth immediately.
In an instant, the redness filled her vision, much deeper than the shallow wound on Song Wanqiuâs arm.
So deep that for a moment, she couldnât feel the pain.
She just watched herself bleed out, while opposite her, Gong Chen pulled Song Wanqiu to safety behind him.
Song Wanqiu laughed from behind him.
Lin Zhiyi watched the scene unfold, her face deathly pale, hollowly laughing...
The police burst in.
âWho called the police?â
âI did.â Gong Chen pointed indifferently to Lin Zhiyi, âHer, take her away.â
The police looked at the injuries on Lin Zhiyi and exclaimed in surprise, âSo much blood, we need to bandage it first.â
Gong Chen did not even glance at her, his voice solemn, âI said take her away. She should bear the consequences of her own actions.â
No sooner had he spoken than Lin Zhiyi was adorned with a pair of silver handcuffs.
The police were very concerned about her, pressing a bandage from their kit against her wound to stop the bleeding.
With a gentle press, Lin Zhiyi broke out in a cold sweat from the pain.
When she was taken away, she paused and said nonchalantly, âIt wasnât me.â
When Gong Chen looked up at her, Song Wanqiu fainted.
Of course, he paid no attention to her and carefully picked up Song Wanqiu.
Lin Zhiyi looked up to see that Song Wanqiuâs apartment was marked with traces of Gong Chen everywhere.
As she withdrew her gaze, she met Gong Chenâs ruthless eyes.
It seemed he was waiting for her to beg for mercy.
He was always like this, aloof, toying with life and death.
He was telling her, she couldnât escape unless he nodded.
A sweet taste of blood surfaced in Lin Zhiyiâs mouth, which she clenched her teeth to swallow back, and walked away without turning her head.
Gong Chenâs expression faltered as he watched Lin Zhiyiâs slender figure, tragically beautiful and shattered.
As if she might turn into smoke and vanish in the daylight, eluding his grasp.
The woman who used to secretly smile at him seemed gone.
He glanced at Chen Jin standing by.
Chen Jin nodded and left quietly.
...
Lin Zhiyi saw the policewoman who had once comforted her again.
Seeing Lin Zhiyiâs condition, the policewoman sighed, âWe meet again, Miss Lin. I have a first aid kit in my car; letâs treat you onsite to prevent the wound from worsening.â
Feeling a trace of warmth, Lin Zhiyiâs eyes brightened.
âThank you.â
The policewoman was very careful, and after her treatment, the bleeding stopped.
Then they took her to a nearby hospital where, after examining her, the doctors were sweating with worry.
âThe cut on your hand is very deep...â
Lin Zhiyiâs eyes went vacant for a few seconds, and then her whole body couldnât stop trembling, âMy hand canât be injured, I still have to compete...â
âDonât worry, we will do our best to treat you.â
With that, the doctor began to treat Lin Zhiyiâs wound.
Pain peppered her constantly, and she bit her lips, now almost bloodless, her entire body like a tree leaf in the wind, almost ready to fall.
The policewoman reached out her arm, unable to bear seeing her in pain, âIf it hurts, grab on to me.â
Lin Zhiyi, her head covered in cold sweat, insisted, âIt doesnât hurt.â
She had to remember this feeling, to remind herself never to go soft.
Amid the pain, she recalled everything that had happened, the way that man had looked at her, which she still remembered vividly.
Everything he did was not aimed at Song Wanqiu, it was aimed at her!
The knife seemed directed at Song Wanqiu, but at the scene, besides Gong Chen, there was also Chen Jin with high combat abilities.
Anyone would understand that wielding the dagger was the most unwise action because it would certainly not succeed.
But if that knife was merely a feint, then everything made sense.
After treating the wound, the doctor said it wasnât serious for the time being and told her to be careful and not to aggravate it.
Lin Zhiyi looked at her hand and breathed a small sigh of relief.
It wasnât luck this time, but her vigilance that allowed her to move just as the man lunged at her.
Otherwise, when everyoneâs attention was on Song Wanqiu, how could she possibly have reacted in time?

The policewoman nodded, âOkay.â
