Lin Zhiyi was slightly startled when she heard Gong Chen's voice.
She turned around and met the man's dark eyes, still indifferent, yet subtly ambiguous.
His gaze shifted, with a faint hint of affection hidden in his eyes.
The man walked in slowly.
The ladies who had been sitting on the sofa all stood up.
"Third Young Master."
"No need for formalities," Gong Chen spoke lightly, his gaze never leaving Lin Zhiyi.
He seemed intentional: "Why are you talking about boyfriends? It sounds kind of familiar."
The ladies exchanged glances upon hearing Gong Chen's familiarity, seemingly guessing who the man was.
Only Lin Zhiyi's ears turned red, wishing she could disappear.
One of the ladies said, "We wanted to introduce someone to Miss Lin, but who knew she had a boyfriend? We just asked who he was."
"Miss Lin described a lot, but we don't know who she was referring to."
They looked towards Lin Zhiyi as they spoke.
