Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 565

Chapter 565: Chapter 565: I Go to Surrender

Old Mr. Gong did not believe that with his prestige, it was impossible for Gong Chen and the others not to visit him.

He was their father!

This was an unchangeable fact.

He pushed away the approaching butler: "Open the door for me!"

The butler wanted to persuade him but, facing Old Mr. Gong’s fierce gaze, he respectfully opened the door.

The VIP ward already had few people.

To show the different status of the patient, there were only a few wards on each floor.

After Old Mr. Gong was admitted, the entire floor was reserved.

So once the door was opened, the desolate scene outside was evident at a glance.

Old Mr. Gong stared at Gong Yao outside the door, his breathing unsteady.

Before he could speak, Gong Yao rushed in and knelt by the bedside.

"Dad, Ye Feifei and Wen Qing are in the hands of the police. If they say anything rash, it won’t just implicate me—it could also incriminate you."

Gong Yao clung to the bed’s edge, staring at Old Mr. Gong intensely.

Old Mr. Gong stared blankly at Gong Yao.

Gong Yao looked very much like him and was the only child he had watched be born.

Thus, his expectations for Gong Yao were even higher than for Gong Chen.

However, the status of Gong Chen’s mother destined Gong Chen to be extraordinary.

At first, Old Mr. Gong poured his heart and soul into both children.

Until Gong Chen’s mother passed away, and Gong Chen grew more distant from him.

In contrast, Gong Yao was obedient and clever, pleasing him.

Gradually, Old Mr. Gong’s heart leaned toward him.

He hoped for Gong Yao to be the one to inherit everything from him rather than Gong Chen, who looked like his mother.

Whatever resources Gong Chen had, Gong Yao had as well, if not better.

But over time, in terms of decision-making, Gong Yao was always a step behind Gong Chen.

For Gong Yao to officially return to the Gong Family, an opportunity was necessary.

At that time, Gong Shiyan had completely given up on himself, leaving only Gong Yan and Gong Chen in the family.

Though the Chen Family supported Gong Yan, he had an incompetent mother and uncle.

As for Gong Chen... dangerous, cold, and heartless, with almost no weaknesses.

So Old Mr. Gong, on the surface, seemed to be testing him by deliberately making a wrong decision, appointing him during a crisis.

In reality, he hoped Gong Chen would be unable to bear the burden.

This way, he could bring Gong Yao back into the Gong Family.

However, this erroneous decision instead helped Gong Chen establish himself firmly in the Gong Group and even in Jing City.

Up until now.

Old Mr. Gong looked at Gong Yao again, and aside from looking like his younger self,

he couldn’t find a trace of the vigor and spirit he once had.

Old Mr. Gong leaned against the pillow, his gaze swiftly turning cold.

"Gong Yao, are you threatening me? Or planning to perish with me?"

Gong Yao quickly shook his head: "Dad, that’s not what I mean. I just want to tell you that no matter what happens, I’m still here with you."

Finishing, he looked up earnestly at Old Mr. Gong.

Besides resembling Old Mr. Gong, he also inherited his mother Fu Xiuzhu’s shrewdness.

He knew very well that Old Mr. Gong was currently angry, so he had to lower his stance.

As expected, Old Mr. Gong looked at him for a few seconds and sighed.

"Then, what do you plan to do?"

"Dad, I think..."

Gong Yao was about to express his thoughts when a figure suddenly rushed in. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

With a thud, Fu Xiuzhu knelt on the ground.

"Ah Yao, stop, you can’t turn yourself in; if anyone does, let it be me."

Gong Yao hesitated for a second, then, seeing Fu Xiuzhu’s signal, moved his knee back two steps and bowed deeply three times to Old Mr. Gong.

"Dad, I’ll handle the aftermath for you and ensure you and the Gong Family’s reputation remain intact."

"Ah Yao, don’t... sob, with you gone, how will your dad manage with only you to help him?"

Fu Xiuzhu tearfully grabbed Gong Yao’s arm.
