The Black Hand from the Back
After listening to his subordinate's report, Gong Yexiao's handsome face became gloomy and unsightly. Finally, he had some ideas about this assassination plan, and the one who assassinated him, was most likely Lu Hai.
He didn't expect that he would still be discovered by him when he sent people to investigate him in secret. In the business world, Gong Yexiao had made quite a few enemies, but those who could pose a threat to him and let him know what they were up to, he would regularly receive updates on their actions. Thus, he had made preparations in advance for Wei Zai's prediction.
However, when Lu Hai made his move, he was truly unprepared, because he felt that Lu Hai would not be able to detect this.
He was too careless.
Lu Hai must have been desperate, that was why he took his life the moment he made a move. If he died, then with the evidence in Cheng Liyue's hands, without his backing, she would not be able to do anything to him.
When Cheng Liyue poured the water in, Gong Yexiao's expression returned to normal. He took the water from her hands and looked at her stunned expression, then comforted her, "Don't worry, there will be enough evidence very soon, and you can sue Lu Hai."
"Hm!" I definitely won't let him go. "Cheng Liyue clenched her teeth, a hint of hatred flashing past her eyes.
Gong Yexiao did not tell her about the latter matter, as telling her would only make her worry and blame herself, or even feel guilty. Maybe, if he said it out loud, she would feel even more indebted to him, and from now on, she would owe him for the rest of her life because of this debt.
However, he didn't want to do that.
What he wanted was to make her happy when he got her, not to make her owe him too much and cause a burden in his heart.
This was the highest realm of doting on a woman.
At this moment, Cheng Liyue did not know that the reason why this man almost lost his life this time was to help her find out about her father. If she knew, she would really feel so guilty that she wanted to die.
In the blink of an eye, another day had passed. On the fifth day, Gong Yexiao's wounds had recovered very well. After Cheng Liyue sent Ozawa to school in the morning, the moment she entered the door, she saw Gong Yexiao getting off the bed with the help of his bodyguards.
"You … How can you get out of bed?" Cheng Liyue asked angrily.
Gong Yexiao laughed, stood up, and signaled to the bodyguards beside him, telling them not to support him anymore.
Although his steps were unsteady and a pained expression appeared on his face, he did not stop walking. He walked all the way to her and lightly flicked her cheek, "I can't keep lying down."
"But you can't go and do anything now either! You can't even get out of bed … The doctor said that you have to lie in bed for half a month. "Cheng Liyue was so anxious that she wanted to immediately send him back to bed.
It had only been five days, and he didn't want to live anymore. What if the wound opened again?
"Don't worry, the wound is recovering well. It won't affect my normal walking."
"Lie down on the bed." Cheng Liyue suddenly got angry, a small face very angry.
Gong Yexiao was startled for a moment, but he had no choice but to agree. "Alright! I'll just lie down. You don't have to be so angry. "
Gong Yexiao then laid back down. When Cheng Liyue went upstairs to cook for him, the bodyguard asked, "Gym Tung, then do you still want to return to the palace today?"
"Make an appointment with my grandfather for dinner!" Gong Yexiao could only sigh. She had to accompany the little fellow at night, so she didn't have time to care about him.
But at the very least, he didn't want to do something that would make her sad.
Gong Yexiao knew that after hiding for five days, he had to appear. He wanted to let those people who secretly hoped that he would lose his life prove that he, Gong Yexiao, was still alive and well.
Cheng Liyue took care of him until four in the afternoon. She had to set off to pick up her son. Ten minutes after she left, with the help of the bodyguards, Gong Yexiao changed into his usual suit and leather shoes. Fortunately, this time his handsome face did not even have a single scar, so when he put on his suit, the aura of an expert did not change in the slightest.
Gong Yexiao's car, escorted by two black SUVs, left through another door of the garage and drove towards the palace.
When the Old Master Gong heard that he was coming back, he had already prepared a table full of dinner. This time, he did not invite Huo Yanran, because in his heart, he had built a bridge for the two of them, and the development of their relationship in the future would require them to grasp it themselves.
"Why didn't you bring Ozawa back?" Seeing that he was the only one who had returned, the Old Master Gong asked in surprise.
"He has to sleep early tonight, so it's not convenient to bring him out. I'll bring him back on the weekend!" Gong Yexiao said with a smile. His footsteps were as steady as usual, causing people to be unable to tell that he was injured at all.
Gong Yan had already set up spies in the palace, so the moment Gong Yexiao entered the house, he knew. He was shocked to the point of disbelief, Gong Yexiao had actually appeared unscathed? Furthermore, he even went back to the palace to eat?
He didn't believe it. He had to see it with his own eyes, so he found a reason to come to the palace as well.
When Gong Yan walked into the hall of the palace, he saw Gong Yexiao's lazy figure sitting on the sofa, drinking the tea brewed by the old man.
"Second Uncle, you're here." A complicated smile appeared in Gong Yexiao's eyes.
That smile, in Gong Yan's eyes, seemed to be mocking his recent actions. Gong Yan's chest skipped a beat, he forced a natural expression, "Ye Xiao, I haven't seen you for a few days, what are you busy with!"
Gong Yexiao was not surprised at all to see Gong Yan, he smiled, "What else can I be busy with, of course it's the company's matters."
Gong Yan's sharp eyes closely sized up Gong Yexiao's expression, only to see that his expression was normal, there were no traces of injuries on his face, and looking at his body, it did not seem like he had come out from the exploding car.
Could it be that his information was wrong? That night, Gong Yexiao was not in that car at all?
"Ye Xiao, there's something I want to ask you seriously. Did something happen to your convoy?" Gong Yan asked directly, wanting to see Gong Yexiao's reaction.
Sure enough, a hint of anger flashed past Gong Yexiao's face, "That's right, I lost a bodyguard."
Old Master Gong who was at the side immediately looked at his grandson in shock, "What? What happened to your convoy? Are you alright?
"" Grandfather, don't worry too much. I wasn't in the convoy at the time. Someone fired a rocket launcher at my convoy from high up in the sky, causing one of my bodyguards to die on the spot. I am currently investigating this matter. "Gong Yexiao's expression revealed a cold and angry glint.
Old Master Gong was shocked, but the butler did not use anything to provoke him recently, so he did not know that this matter had been broadcasted on the news.
"No matter who it is, Ye Xiao, find him and don't let him go so easily." Old Master Gong said angrily as he heavily slammed his walking stick.
