Chapter 304 You're Messy
Chapter 304 You're Messy
Gong Chen put away the knife and continued to peel the apple. His movements were slow and seemingly casual, but there was an unapproachable chill around him.
"You want my second brother to marry a girlfriend who sent women to her father? And then watch her continue to send women to you in order to curry favor with her?"
Old Master Gong looked at Gong Chen in disbelief and clenched his fists tightly.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Gong Chen lowered his eyes and said slowly, "Did that woman never come back to you? Because it was my second brother who dealt with it. You may have forgotten, because in your eyes, that kind of woman is nothing more than clothes. If the old one doesn't go, the new one will come."
"..."
The old man's lips trembled slightly.
"My eldest brother was already three years old when he came to the Gong family, but my second brother was sent to the Gong family right after he was born. He was raised by my mother day and night. In his heart, my mother is his biological mother. After seeing the double betrayal of his girlfriend and father, he couldn't face my mother at all."
"Why do you hate Liu He so much? Besides the fact that she has no background and a daughter with an unknown father, there must be other reasons, right?"
After he finished speaking, Gong Chen raised his eyes and looked at the old man coldly.
I heard that the old man's cheeks, which had originally had color, turned pale inch by inch.
He panted, glared at Gong Chen, and warned him to stop talking.
Gong Chen spoke slowly and carefully, "When you fell and got hurt at the horse farm, Liu He immediately went to take care of you. But afterwards, you became more and more disgusted with her. It wasn't because she didn't take good care of you, but because she saw someone she shouldn't have seen."
"Who is the woman you're riding with?"
"That's enough!" The old man coughed violently, his body trembling slightly as he leaned against the pillow.
The housekeeper quickly stepped forward to help him calm down.
"I didn't even know I had a sister, and I didn't know if they were doing well in New Zealand. If Liu He hadn't been simple-minded and didn't think too much about it, with this explosive secret, she would have already established herself in the Gong family."
The old man was stunned for a moment, a hint of guilt flashed across his eyes, but it only lasted for a moment.
He has stood on the top of a mountain, felt the admiration of too many women, and also controlled the life and death of others.
You could say he is conceited, but he is certainly capable of being conceited.
Even at this age, he still secretly controls many things and many people.
The Gong family is like a huge net. What you can see is the prosperity of the huge family, and what you can't see is the entanglement of interests and the complexity.
This is the reality. The more you dislike someone, the harder it is to kill them.
The old man said calmly and casually: "They will not threaten you, and will never step into the door of the Gong family. They just come back to visit me occasionally."
In the old man's opinion, this is not a big deal, but a mistake that all men in the world will make.
Upon hearing this, Gong Chen exerted force with the knife in his hand, and the apple peel broke and fell to the ground.
He sneered, "My mother is the woman you love most? How many women have you said this to?"
"Your mother entered the Gong family ancestral hall! She was my only wife! After her death, why didn't I marry again? Wasn't it because I recognized her?" The old man emphasized.
While arguing, the apple was peeled.
Gong Chen held up the apple and stared at the scratch marks on it.
The old man looked at him without saying anything, thinking that he agreed with what he said, and immediately calmed down a little.
Instead, he looked like a kind father.
"Gong Chen, although you have a cold personality, I know that you value relationships the most. You value your mother's things very much, otherwise you wouldn't still have the scarf and sweater that I knitted for you more than ten years ago."
"As long as you do what I ask you to do, these are all yours."
Gong Chen remained indifferent, as if he had already gotten used to the old man's rhetoric.
He was still young when his mother died, and all the inheritance left to him was controlled by his old father who served as his guardian.
Ever since he took over Gong Group, he has been trying hard to gain a foothold in order to get back what belongs to his mother.
Gong Chen placed the apple on the plate in front of the old man and said calmly, "Then do you know why I must take back my mother's inheritance?"
The old man propped himself up and recalled the past, "Of course it was to help you gain strength. Your mother's marriage to me was also a sensational news. Both families were prominent families. It's a pity that your mother's family fell into decline after she gave birth to you."
"Don't you know how your grandmother's family fell into decline? You colluded with your uncles and aunts to design a wrong decision for your grandmother's family, which led to bankruptcy, and then acquired their company at the lowest price. My mother originally wanted to use the dowry to save the company, but you had already tricked her into dividing the dowry into my name so that you could veto her right to deal with the dowry." Gong Chen said coldly.
"you……"
Gong Chen ignored the old man's surprise, slowly stood up and walked a little closer.
"How should I know? My mother...she died in my arms. She told me and asked me to take everything back. You all think that children don't remember things, but I remember every detail."
"Including what I saw in your office that day."
It wasn’t just Gong Shize and Gong Shiyan who saw the entanglement between men and women.
Gong Chen, who was secretly following them, also saw it.
Mr. Gong was breathing rapidly, and before he could come to his senses, there was a click in his ear, and the fruit knife stabbed directly into the apple in front of him.
The apple may appear flat, but the plate underneath it has already fallen apart.
After finishing, Gong Chen took out a handkerchief from his pocket with a serious face and wiped his hands.
He said without looking away, "If you want to enjoy your old age, don't pretend to be sick all the time. Be careful if you really get sick, then we, as his sons, will have to sign."
The old man's face turned pale and he said angrily: "You, you dare to threaten me?"
"Don't worry, we still have to save you. You taught me... I can't lose face. As for how to save you, I will discuss it with my second brother. If he really marries Wen Qing, given Wen Qing's ambition, she will probably be the one who wants you dead the most."
After saying that, Gong Chen threw the handkerchief into the trash can in front of the old man.
Watching the handkerchief floating down, the old man felt his heart falling with it.
He stared at Gong Chen angrily: "Since you blame me so much, why don't you continue to pretend? I promised you in public that I would give you everything when you get married. Your efforts over the years have paid off, but you said it now. You are not the kind of person who loses your patience."
Gong Chen said nothing, turned around and was about to leave.
The old man sneered: "Because Lin Zhiyi and Sang Li are together, you are confused."
"I remember that you always disliked me, but suddenly one day you obeyed me. I thought you had figured it out. Now that I think about it, it just so happened that Lin Zhiyi came to the Gong family at that time."
When he heard Lin Zhiyi's name, veins bulged on the back of Gong Chen's hands.
The old man sighed softly: "You are controlling Gong family step by step. Sooner or later, I will not be able to control you. But... by then, it will be too late."
"Gong Chen, you're getting married, and you don't care about Xiao Ran anymore? Are you going to steal her brother's girlfriend?"
"The one who owes Xiao Ran is not me, but you."
"Are you going to destroy another woman for the sake of one woman?"
He spoke softly, but there was a sharp and shrewd light in his eyes.
Gong Chen said nothing and left the ward.
At the end of the corridor, he just took out a cigarette and Sang Ran came over.
"Stop smoking and take care of yourself."
Listening to her words that were clearly concerned, Gong Chen felt inexplicably irritated.
But he didn't want to take his anger out on an innocent person.
"Let the driver take you back first."
"But I want to be with you..."
When Sang Ran met Gong Chen's gaze, she suddenly became afraid.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Chen Jin immediately stepped forward.
"Miss Sang, you've been busy all day. The old man will be here with the Third Master."
"Ah."
Sang Ran left reluctantly.
Gong Chen approached Chen Jin and said, "Go find Li Huan and ask him to keep an eye on the old man's medical records."
