Chapter 19: The Scheming Money-Worshipping Substitute
Zhou Congli was sitting in the car. He had actually noticed that something was wrong with his fiancée and his brother. After all, once he looked beyond his misconceptions and thought carefully, he would find that there were many unusual things between the two of them. But... maybe he was just too suspicious.

He sent a message asking what Linzhi was doing?
After all, Zhou Ye went to find her, and no one knew what she was thinking now.

There was no reply.

He had no choice but to put down his phone and go to the company. Although he had finished his work for the day, he had nothing to do at the moment and planned to review the plan for the project at hand.

Buzz buzz buzz. After a long time, Linzhi sent a message: President, where are you? Are you free now?
Zhou Congli immediately replied: At the company, what happened? Where are you?

Lin Zhi: ...I'm at the *** Hotel. I told you earlier that I have something I want you to pass on to Zhou Ye. Are you free now? I'll give it to you.

Zhou Congli instantly thought of that chaotic night. After all, it was in that house that the incident happened last time, and it left a deep impression on him.

It was a bit strange why she was there.

"Okay, you wait there, I'll be there in a minute," he replied, immediately put down his work, picked up his keys and left the company.

Twenty minutes later, Zhou Congli saw Lin Zhi standing on the roadside at the entrance of *** Hotel, wearing thin clothes and carrying something. Her long hair covered half of her face and she seemed to be in a bad mood.

He stopped the car and walked up to the woman: "Linzhi?"

Lin Zhi raised her head and saw her expression. Zhou Congli was instantly worried: "What happened? You look very unhappy."

Lin Zhi pulled the corner of her mouth: "...It's okay." She handed over the bag in her hand, "These are all given to me by Zhou Ye after we started dating. Some of them have been used, such as cosmetics and perfumes, but I will exchange them for the corresponding price and transfer them to you. The bags have some slight signs of use."

"You need to take it to the counter to determine how much it is worth. If it's not enough, I'll make up for it."

"Boss, thank you for your help."

Zhou Congli didn't answer, looking at her expression: "What happened? And Zhou Ye, he went to school to look for you today."

"As for these." He glanced at the things in the bag, "The Zhou family wouldn't take back the things they gave away just because they were in a relationship. You just take them."

Besides, it looked like it was worth only a few hundred thousand at most, which was not worth much at all.

You have to know that on Zhou Ye's birthday, the luxury car his parents gave him was worth 100 million yuan, and even the gift he gave was worth more than 10 million yuan. He also heard that Zhou Ye and his brothers could spend 400,000 or 500,000 yuan in one night at the club.

Not to mention the daily food, clothing and other expenses. A meal costs thousands of dollars, and the money spent is much more than that.

As a result, even though they were in a relationship, the gift was just this little, and he felt ashamed when he saw it.

"No, you have to give it back!"

Lin Zhi was very excited, her eyes turned red: "I have nothing to do with him anymore, I can't accept these!"

She glanced at the brightly lit and luxuriously decorated hotel, tears flashing in her eyes. She lowered her head and handed the things to him, choking back her sobs: "President, please, help me return it to him."

Zhou Congli didn't expect her to react so strongly, so he had to take it and pursed his lips: "So, have you thought clearly about what to do?" Is she going to completely sever ties with Zhou Ye?
"I will think about it carefully...but these have nothing to do with Zhou Ye, and this child has nothing to do with him either. You don't have to tell him."

"President, there is one more thing I would like you to help me with."

Zhou Congli didn't expect that Lin Zhi didn't intend to tell Zhou Ye: "You say."

Lin Zhi: "I want to check the surveillance footage on the top floor of the *** Hotel on the night of May 5th, but I just asked and the hotel staff said the equipment was damaged and the content could not be found. I find it a little unbelievable. Can you help me ask?" Her eyes were clear. "You are the president of Dongning. Maybe they will find a way to restore it."

Zhou Congli: "...Why do you want to check the surveillance?" He stared at Lin Zhi inquiringly, but an idea gradually emerged in his mind and his heart was beating fast, but he felt it was unlikely.

Lin Zhi turned her face away slightly: "There is something, I want to take a look." She didn't want to say it.

Zhou Congli took a deep breath and told her: "The surveillance on the top floor is indeed damaged, and the content is lost and cannot be found." Assistant Zhang specially found someone in this field to repair it, but in the end it still could not be restored.

Lin Zhi seemed to be stunned for a moment, her long eyelashes drooping slightly: "Is that so."

The night wind blew, bringing a chill. Zhou Congli nodded, and Lin Zhi suddenly smiled at him: "It's okay if it's gone. It's getting late, President, you should go back. I've kept you here for so long today. As for the bag, please let me know after you have someone identify it."

Zhou Congli nodded, looked at her again, and asked, "Have you eaten?"

Lin Zhi hesitated and shook her head, and Zhou Congli opened the car door: "Then let's go eat first, and I'll take you wherever you go later."

Linzhi did not refuse, so Zhou Congli took her out to eat and ordered some food that she could eat, and then sent her back to school.

At the school gate, people were coming and going, and Zhou Congli put his coat on her.

Lin Zhi was about to take off her clothes when Zhou Congli said, “Put them on. It’s cold at night.” He looked at her with a cold gaze and said, “Go back and take care of yourself.” He wanted to say something else, but didn’t and let her enter the school gate.

Lin Zhi looked at him, pinched the corner of her clothes, nodded, and went in.

When she returned to the dormitory door, she took off her clothes, held them in her arms, pushed the door open and walked in. The people who were chattering in the dormitory stopped abruptly. They were all girls from the next door dormitories. They looked at her, a little surprised, and then became weird.

Lin Zhi didn't notice it, so she said hello, put her suit on the bed, sat down in her seat, and took out her cell phone.

"Linzhi." Someone spoke.

Lin Zhi sent a WeChat message to remind Zhou Congli to be careful, and turned to signal the girl with her eyes to tell her if she had anything to say.

"Linzhi, didn't you see the confession wall?" the girl said, with contempt in her eyes, "Didn't Chang Lele and the others tell you?"

Several girls were looking at her, some of them even lowered their heads to send messages, and some even seemed to have turned on their cell phones to record videos.

Lin Zhi... She looked at the expressions of the girls, then looked at Li Ke who was sneering among them. A bad premonition rose from the bottom of her heart, but she said calmly: "No, let me take a look."

She quickly scanned her phone and noticed that her roommate had been sending her messages non-stop since six o'clock in the evening, as well as people at school who knew her.

At a glance, there are rows of glaring red unread messages.

Her fingertips paused, without looking, and went directly to the school confession wall, where the latest content was: The previous content was wrong and has been deleted.

Lin Zhi exited without any expression and clicked on her roommate's message: Zhi Zhi, look, is this really you? Picture jpg.
I clicked on it with my finger and saw a photo of a woman lying in a man's arms.

It's all mosaic, but her face is revealed.

 The updates are quite late recently, usually after 11 o'clock.
  I would like to ask what time everyone usually reads novels. Do you need me to change the update time?
