Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 877

Chapter 877: Chapter 877: She Has Already Betrayed

Yang Jingwei’s assistant shook her head as she looked at the old man.

"This is what I should do, as the old man trained me."

The old man was very satisfied with her answer.

He nodded, "Very good, where is the item?"

The assistant took out a briefcase from behind her.

"Inside here is the computer Bai Zhengxian stored in a safe deposit box at a foreign bank, containing many secrets of the elites in Jing City."

"Yang Jingwei used this to force Gong Yao into cooperation, using the Gong Family’s private plane to transport goods for her."

"But Yang Jingwei still remains cautious around me; every time she opens the case, she doesn’t allow me to be present, and she checks the room for surveillance devices, so I don’t know the case’s password."

The old man looked at the briefcase and smiled.

"You don’t need to know, because I do."

"..."

The assistant froze, staring blankly at the old man.

The old man squinted his eyes, "Are you wondering how I could know?"

The assistant nodded.

The old man seemed in a good mood, so he spoke a little more.

"Do you really think Yang Jingwei only wants to win over Gong Yao?"

The assistant realized what was going on.

It turns out Yang Jingwei was currying favor with both the old man and Gong Yao.

She must have learned the password from Bai Zhengxian long ago.

But she didn’t know where Bai Zhengxian stored the computer.

So she told the old man about the password.

To ensure her position in Jing City.

Of course, she wasn’t willing to remain in a subordinate position, so she intended to use the same method to eliminate the old man through Gong Yao.

At that point, all she needed was to eliminate the unsuspecting Gong Yao.

The assistant’s face turned even paler.

None of the people involved in this struggle are innocent.

Once you’re in, there’s no turning back, no one gets to quit halfway.

The old man, seeing her stunned, ignored her.

He motioned for the butler to bring the case to him.

He touched the case and chuckled softly.

"Without any effort, it still ended up in my hands."

After entering the password,

with a snap, the case popped open.

The old man eagerly opened the case, but after seeing the contents, he was dumbfounded for a long time.

The case contained nothing but a thick stack of white paper.

"How can this be?"

"What is this?"

The old man placed the case in front of the assistant.

The assistant looked at the white paper on the ground, pursed her lips and remained silent.

"Speak! Where’s the computer?"

"Seize her!"

Just as the butler was about to step forward, the door swung open.

Gong Chen walked in with Lin Zhiyi.

He glanced at the white paper on the ground, "No computer?"

At the mention of the word "computer,"

the old man’s eyes widened instantly, staring at Gong Chen.

"It’s you! You took the computer!"

"Yes, it’s me."

Gong Chen admitted directly.

Even Lin Zhiyi was a bit surprised.

However, she understood; had she known everything beforehand, the old man might have noticed when she switched his medication.

She was probably so tense that the old man believed his plan was going smoothly.

With that thought, Lin Zhiyi turned her gaze to the old man.

"You... you deliberately let me see the red-labeled medicine in Fu Xiuzhu’s bag! If something happened to Yang Jingwei afterward, I could testify it was Fu Xiuzhu and Gong Yao who harmed her, eliminating the disobedient son and Yang Jingwei in one fell swoop."

All of them were busy being busy, only serving the old man’s interests in the end.

The old man let out a hearty laugh.

"I don’t know what you’re talking about; after all, I was indeed poisoned, and I truly just got out of danger."

"..."

Lin Zhiyi gritted her teeth.

That expression of indifference, how infuriating.

Is he truly unstoppable?

Just as Lin Zhiyi felt helpless, Gong Chen handed a document to the old man.

"This is your health examination report, done by your lover’s lover. It shows you are no longer fit to be in charge."

The old man opened the document, seeing the diagnosis results.

He angrily slammed the report, "He’s lying! I’m not that severely ill!"

"Perhaps, but Albert is an authority on cardiac issues; his diagnosis is persuasive. Furthermore, since you took that medication several times to gain Gong Yao and Yang Jingwei’s trust, it’s normal your health has worsened," Gong Chen explained.

"No! I’m in good health!" the old man insisted.

"But you just admitted you were poisoned, so your words no longer hold weight. Do you think the company people will still support you?" Gong Chen retorted.

The old man froze.

Gong Chen looked down at him, his gaze cold and merciless.

The trap was the old man’s own making; in the end, he himself was the one trapped.

As he ages, his health will only deteriorate further, diminishing his credibility.

Gong Chen stated expressionlessly, "If I were you, I’d immediately cut ties with Gong Yao and send Yang Jingwei in, then enjoy a peaceful retirement."

The old man’s face tightened, turning grayish-white.
