Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 878

Chapter 878: Chapter 878: She Must Never Be Released

Gong Chen slowly walked to the bedside, leaned over and looked at the old man.

The once high-spirited man now had a head full of white hair.

Facing him, Gong Chen thought he would hate him, but found himself incredibly calm at this moment.

No need to ruin his own life for him.

He must live to slowly feel the taste of losing everything.

He said softly, "I’ve already handed the computer over to the police. It doesn’t belong to any of us. The circle in Jing City needs a reshuffle. Take care of yourself."

"Is it...worth it for you?"

The old man sat there dejectedly, without even the strength to argue.

As he asked, he subconsciously glanced at Lin Zhiyi.

He knew everything Gong Chen did was for her sake.

Gong Chen smirked but his smile was incredibly calm.

"You should really thank her. If it were the old me, I wouldn’t let any of you sit here intact, even if it meant going down together. But I fear she and our daughter would worry, and I think I already have my answer. I will live well with my family..."

Gong Chen stared at the old man, and what he left unsaid was already clear to the old man.

Gong Chen’s family, with the notable exclusion of him.

"I’ve sent the statement to your phone. Just read it and send it out."

Having said that, Gong Chen turned around, prepared to leave with Lin Zhiyi.

"Gong Chen..."

The old man called out to Gong Chen from behind.

After a few seconds of silence, he slowly started speaking.

"Gong Chen, whether you believe it or not, the computer in Yang Jingwei’s hand was meant for you. The heir to the Gong Family can only be you."

"Gong Chen..."

He seemed unable to continue, or perhaps didn’t know how to start.

In the end, he was left without words.

Gong Chen cast his gaze away, silently leaving the ward.

Lin Zhiyi followed him, grasping his tense back and quickly moving forward to hold his hand.

"Third Young Master, shouldn’t you explain a little?"

She deliberately changed the subject.

Gong Chen looked at her for a few seconds, then held her hand tightly.

"Captain Xing instructed that only I should know, and cooperating with the police is what a good citizen does."

"Nonsense, you just deliberately didn’t tell me. I feel like a headless fly between you all." Lin Zhiyi pouted.

"Not at all, where is there a fly as good-looking as you?" Gong Chen said earnestly.

"..."

Lin Zhiyi glared at him.

But seeing the calm in his eyes, she finally felt relieved.

She said, "Perhaps what he said is true, because when changing the medicine in the room, he was indeed helping me."

She had seen the old man look at her with disgust, so it was really easy to distinguish whether there was goodwill.

Gong Chen said, "So I let him retreat as a victim. Otherwise, he, the accomplice, would have to accompany Gong Yao as well."

Mentioning Gong Yao, Lin Zhiyi tugged at him.

"You beat him too badly, I heard he even lost two teeth."

"Do you feel sorry for him?"

"No, I’m just afraid he’ll use it as an excuse to not give a statement, and it’ll take longer for him to plead guilty. Couldn’t you have hit somewhere else?"

"I did. Whether he becomes a father or a father-in-law depends on his fortune." Gong Chen said calmly.

"A father? Father-in-law?"

Hmm?

Hmm!!!

Lin Zhiyi widened her eyes and followed him into Li Huan’s office.

The old man just thought Gong Yao resembled him in his youth, hence he had a moment of compassion.

He also took the opportunity to remove Gong Yao’s name.

The old man was portrayed as a victim in this matter, which made his words more credible.

After all, who would dare drug their own father to kill the old man.

It’s really uncertain if Gong Yao would regret everything after seeing this statement.

If he hadn’t been so greedy, as long as he carried the surname Gong, he could have had a lifetime of glory and wealth.

Lin Zhiyi put down her phone, looking at Gong Chen leisurely drinking tea.

He didn’t even need to look at his phone, so it seemed everything was under his control again.

Lin Zhiyi thought for a moment, then curiously said, "Third Young Master, when did you know Mrs. Bai’s assistant was working for the old man?"

Gong Chen put down his teacup and explained, "An assistant has their own procedures for doing things, but will adjust according to the habits of their employer. Her assistant was subtly guiding her towards a certain direction, indicating a purpose in approaching Yang Jingwei. However, Yang Jingwei isn’t stupid; she wouldn’t randomly trust someone getting close for no reason. This means the assistant must have impressed her in some way, and it just needed checking."

"Anyone who can prescribe the right medicine for Yang Jingwei must understand her very well. Besides her daughter, the only person she could rely on was left."

The old man.

Lin Zhiyi nodded, indeed noticing how Gong Chen was observant.

However, Gong Chen said, "It was all seen by Chen Jin."

Li Huan placed a hand on Chen Jin’s shoulder, "Our Assistant Chen is really impressive."

Chen Jin looked at the hand on his shoulder, thoughtfully said, "Even though Gong Yao was resolved, Yang Jingwei still refuses to speak. If she knows the old man has completely given up on Gong Yao, one can’t predict what she might do."

Gong Chen stared at the clear tea in the cup.

"Then let her assistant see her and get the words out. She absolutely can’t be let out."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhiyi felt an inexplicable chill in Gong Chen’s tone.

Although Yang Jingwei was not a good person, she never dared openly to disrespect Gong Chen.

Why did Gong Chen hate her so much?

"Third Young Master, what is it? Is there something more about Yang Jingwei?"
