"Are you sure you want to stop me?"
Gong Chen looked coldly at the bodyguards.
They were all the master’s trusted aides and were equally afraid of Gong Chen.
As they hesitated, the study door opened.
Gong Yao came out.
He raised his hand to stop Gong Chen: "Third Brother, Dad said he’s tired and doesn’t want to see guests."
"Guests?" Gong Chen questioned.
"Third Brother, that’s what Dad said. I’m just passing the message. If you have anything to say, I can relay it for you."
"Gong Yao, do you remember what I told you?" Gong Chen asked very calmly.
"What?"
Gong Yao clearly didn’t remember.
Gong Chen’s dark eyes were unfathomable, as if no light could penetrate them.
"Think about it carefully."
After speaking, Gong Chen turned and left.
He immediately noticed Lin Zhiyi hiding in the corner.
Based on this alone, Lin Zhiyi didn’t believe he couldn’t see through Gong Yao’s intentions.
Or perhaps Gong Chen was also doing it on purpose.
Following Gong Chen out of the house, she jogged to catch up.
"Third Young Master, were you doing it on purpose?"
"Yes." Gong Chen readily admitted, "If he doesn’t get proud, how will he proceed with the next step?"
"That’s true... wait." Lin Zhiyi thought of something and grabbed him, "But he’ll be even harsher on the old man, right?"
"Yes."
Gong Chen expressionlessly straightened his suit.
Lin Zhiyi’s eyes widened slightly: "You want the old man to suffer, huh?"
"If he hadn’t had a bastard child, this wouldn’t have happened, serves him right."
"Pfft."
Lin Zhiyi stifled a laugh.
The old man really brought it on himself.
...
Study.
Gong Yao returned to the study cheerfully.
At this point, a thick document was spread out in front of the old man, just waiting for his signature.
Gong Yao walked over and directly threw down a pen.
"Dad, sign it."
The old man glanced at the words on it, a will.
He snorted coldly: "Gong Yao, I’m not dead yet, and you can’t wait any longer?"
Gong Yao chuckled lightly: "Dad, I’m just being cautious. Aren’t I the one you favor the most? Then leave everything to me, that way you won’t have to worry about Gong Chen monopolizing everything. Nor do you have to worry about the Jiang Family taking advantage of Gong Chen."
The old man closed his eyes: "I won’t sign it."
Gong Yao’s eyes became a bit more menacing.
"Dad, I advise you to sign it, it will be good for both you and me."
"What if I don’t sign?"
The old man stared at Gong Yao.
Gong Yao turned and handed over pills and water.
"Dad, take your medicine first. After you take it, we can talk slowly. I believe you will sign it."
"I won’t take it!"
The old man’s face turned ashen, raising his hand to refuse Gong Yao’s approach.
But how could he be a match for Gong Yao?
Gong Yao directly twisted his arm, speaking harshly: "Dad, you must have already felt the changes in your body, right?"
"You..."
"You can’t live without my medicine now. If you want to feel a little better, you must take it, otherwise..." Gong Yao, thinking of Gong Chen’s failure, deepened his smile, "Gong Chen won’t save you, he hates you too much, now everyone in the Gong family is on my side, if Dad wants a peaceful retirement, it’s better to sign it."
"I won’t... ugh..."
Gong Yao then shoved the medicine into the old man’s mouth.
After obtaining the will, he looked at it with satisfaction for a while.
Ignoring the old man on the ground, he turned and left the study.
The old man raised his eyes, staring at his back, then supported himself on the table to sit back in the chair.
Straight-backed and serious.
...
Gong Yao left the Gong Mansion, where Fu Xiuzhu, who couldn’t wait, had already exited the car and ran over.
"How did it go?"
Gong Yao raised the document in his hand with a smile.
He showed it not only to Fu Xiuzhu, but also to Bai Ruoshu and Yang Jingwei in the car.
They had been here waiting for news for some time.
Once they got hold of the will, everything would be much easier.
Gong Yao walked to the car, tapped and looked at the two people inside.
"Mom, we can start now."
"I knew you’d succeed." Yang Jingwei looked at her son-in-law with satisfaction.
Gong Yao turned to look at the vast Gong Mansion.
"This place finally belongs to me."
...
The next day.
Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen received a message from Captain Xing.
With the information she got from Liu He, the pills soon yielded results.
Still, the components were ones Lin Zhiyi couldn’t even pronounce.
Captain Xing said, "This drug is even more potent than the ones the old man takes. My colleague said it seems to be for some specific component research, a semi-finished product. Accidentally ingesting it won’t kill, but it will leave one crippled. Are they planning to use this on the old man?"
Gong Chen frowned slightly: "No, it doesn’t make sense."
"Then who is this drug intended for?"
