Lin Yan was a little confused when she received Li Xiaoyi's call, not because she received the call from Li Xiaoyi suddenly, but because of what Li Xiaoyi said.
"Lin Yan, can we meet? I want to tell you about Gu Zhiyi."
Lin Yan was stunned for a moment. Gu Zhiyi? Li Xiaoyi? What kind of relationship could these two have?
However, Lin Yan still agreed to Li Xiaoyi's request, mainly because she was really wondering what had happened in the meantime when she was unaware.
Lin Yan and Li Xiaoyi met one afternoon after get off work and went to a restaurant together.
After ordering the dishes, the door of the private room was closed to block out the sounds outside, and Li Xiaoyi spoke without any further ado.
"Actually, when I first came to see you, it was Gu Zhiyi who asked us to come here. You should know this."
Lin Yan raised her eyebrows and said "hmm". Of course she knew it, and she also knew the purpose of Gu Zhiyi's doing that, but she didn't intend to speak at this time.
However, Lin Yan didn't intend to say anything at this time. Instead, she looked at Li Xiaoyi and waited for her to continue.
"Some time ago, when I came to Beicheng during the Spring Festival, he contacted me again and hoped that I could help him..."
Li Xiaoyi also kept watching Lin Yan's expression. Seeing that Lin Yan's expression did not change, she smiled bitterly.
She took advantage of Lin Yan's kindness and joined Lin Yan, but her purpose was to help Gu Zhiyi.
Li Xiaoyi concealed her emotions and spoke again: "He always insisted that you were replaced by someone else and asked me to test you... I'm sorry."
"So you came to me this time just to confess all this? And apologize?" Lin Yan frowned slightly and interrupted her, asking, "Or do you have another reason?"
Li Xiaoyi took a deep breath and spoke again: "Indeed, I came to see you this time for other matters. I saw your brother at his place a while ago. They talked about collaborating or something."
Lin Yan frowned and looked at Li Xiaoyi. Li Xiaoyi looked away under her gaze but still spoke.
"I don't want him to continue doing stupid things." Li Xiaoyi said with a wry smile.
"Lin Yan, I'm actually really jealous of you. No matter how miserable you are, you always have people around you to help you, like Gu Zhiyi and Lu Jinghuai... and I have nothing."
Lin Yan was silent. She didn't know how to respond to Li Xiaoyi's words, because she couldn't deny that she did have noble people helping her all the time.
But she still looked up at Li Xiaoyi: "Thank you for telling me this, I will take care of it."
Li Xiaoyi pulled the corners of her mouth but couldn't smile. At this time, the waiter also pushed open the door and came in.
…
This conversation with Li Xiaoyi made Lu Jinghuai realize that it was time to put into practice the idea she had before giving birth.
Tell Gu Zhiyi that she is not Lin Yan.
Li Xiaoyi didn't say anything else at the dinner table. After dinner, Lu Jinghuai came to pick her up. Lin Yan politely offered to take Li Xiaoyi home but was rejected.
The next day, Lin Yan took an afternoon off and called Gu Zhiyi. She asked to meet Gu Zhiyi, and after a long silence, the other party agreed.
The meeting place was set at a teahouse with good security. When Lin Yan arrived, Gu Zhiyi had been waiting for a long time.
Gu Zhiyi saw her coming, his eyes moved slightly and looked at her: "What do you want to see me about?"
Lin Yan looked at Gu Zhiyi in front of her with some hesitation. She didn't know whether Gu Zhiyi could accept the truth. The person she had been looking for for a long time ended up with no chance to see him again.
But she never told him anything, which made Gu Zhiyi keep looking for her and wouldn't let her go, and both of them felt uneasy.
Lin Yan let out a long breath and decided to speak, getting straight to the point without any nonsense.
"Didn't you take a copy of Lin Qi and I's test report last time? I can tell you again that the test report is fake. I advise you to find a more authoritative testing agency to do the test."
Gu Zhiyi frowned slightly, obviously not believing Lin Yan's words. After waiting for Lin Yan for a long time, Lin Yan only said this?
There was a hint of sarcasm in Gu Zhiyi's eyes. He was about to say something when he heard Lin Yan speak from the side.
"Because I am not the Lin Yan of the past, but this body belongs to Lin Yan."
Gu Zhiyi frowned tightly, not understanding what Lin Yan meant, but he already had a bad feeling in his heart.
He always felt that if Lin Yan continued talking, he might not be able to accept what she said, but Gu Zhiyi did not speak to stop her, but just pursed her thin lips tightly.
"My name is Lin Yan, too. Like this Lin Yan, I was born into a family that favors boys over girls. Before going to bed, I read a melodramatic novel about a domineering CEO. When I woke up, I was at a wedding. The plot and names were familiar. I found myself transported back to the novel I had read. I know Lin Yan's past because I inherited her memories."
There was a long silence.
"What about my Ayan?" Gu Zhiyi stared at Lin Yan in front of him, as if trying to see something from her.
"I don't know." Lin Yan answered honestly: "I don't know how I got here, so I naturally don't know where she went. Maybe she got into my body."
Lin Yan paused and spoke again: "My current situation is not bad. I have a good job and I bought a small house with a down payment some time ago. If she goes there, although her conditions are not as good as those of the Lin and Lu families, they are not too bad."
Lin Yan didn't say anything after she finished speaking, and Gu Zhiyi didn't say anything either. He held the teacup tightly, but his hands couldn't stop shaking.
After a long time, Gu Zhiyi raised his eyes, sneered, and said directly.
"You're trying to deceive me with such an outrageous thing, do you think I will believe it?"
Lin Yan looked at him. She didn’t know whether Gu Zhiyi really didn’t believe it or was pretending not to believe it and was deceiving himself.
She frowned slightly, but still spoke again: "If you don't believe me, you can continue to ask me about the details of your relationship with Lin Yan. I know everything."
"No need." Gu Zhiyi interrupted her directly: "Since you are impersonating Lin Yan, you will naturally find out her life story."
"If what I said was false, there would always be flaws. You can find out about the past, but it's impossible to know every detail. Or you can go for another appraisal, this time to a more authoritative institution, and go yourself."
Lin Yan pulled out a few hairs from her head and put them into the sealed bag.
"I said no need!" Gu Zhiyi interrupted Lin Yan directly. His dark eyes seemed to be hiding something, and his eyes were slightly scarlet.
"That's outrageous. Why would I be so stupid as to accompany you to test such a meaningless thing?"
Lin Yan's eyes met Gu Zhiyi's, and she instantly understood that Gu Zhiyi actually believed what she said.
But Gu Zhiyi couldn't accept it, and she didn't know what to do for a moment.
