The old lady leaned against the glass door, preventing herself from collapsing again.
Gong Chen continued, "You’ve been brainwashed by a charlatan for a long time, and quite a few people know about the absurd things you’ve done, but everyone knows it’s because you care too much, so they haven’t said anything. Do you really want your concern to be exploited?"
It’s said that to help her grandson grow a new arm, the old lady listened to the charlatan, donating money and eating lotus root for a month.
He’s not Nezha; losing an arm won’t be fixed with lotus root.
"No, that’s not true." The old lady lowered her head and refused to admit it.
"It doesn’t matter if you don’t admit it, catching that charlatan will clear things up."
Gong Chen spoke directly.
The old lady finally couldn’t hold on and sat down on the ground.
She angrily exclaimed, "It was clearly on the same day the children were born. My grandson was healthy and chubby, how could he suddenly lose an arm? Instead, Liu He’s child, who was said to be unable to survive the premature birth, lived and grew up so well. The master said my grandson’s fortune was stolen!"
Everyone was shocked.
They all knew she was obsessed for her grandson, but didn’t think she had gone insane.
How can you define it like that with so many children born on the same day?
Lin Zhiyi angrily said, "Do you think breaking my brother’s arm will make your grandson’s arm grow back?"
"..." The old lady said nothing.
"Old lady, please answer my question." Lin Zhiyi shouted.
The old lady lowered her head even more.
"Actually, you know it’s impossible. It’s clear you can’t see others doing well and use your grandson as an excuse. Rather than wasting time with charlatans, it would be better to nurture your child properly. Smart people use their brains, not their hands."
Lin Zhiyi ignored the other’s status and spoke directly.
The old lady bit her lip in silence.
Lin Zhiyi continued to ask, "Who told you my brother’s birth date? Today is just a lucky day, not his full month or hundred day celebration. Don’t try to use that as an excuse."
The old lady hesitated and said, "I just roughly guessed it."
Lin Zhiyi sneered, "We never told anyone about my mother’s premature birth, how did you know?"
Gong Chen assisted, "Not many people know about the premature birth and the danger his life was in. Do we need to publicly investigate? If things get ugly, don’t blame our Gong family."
Lin Zhiyi had already guessed who it was.
Besides them, it was the person planning to make Liu He suffer from a tragedy.
Yang Jingwei.
Lin Zhiyi deliberately looked at Yang Jingwei in front of the old lady.
She immediately realized Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen knew what was going on.
"It was..."
"It was me who said it." Yang Jingwei suddenly stood up, then appeared aggrieved, "I was chatting with Ruoshu at the time, marveling at the child’s fortune and resilience. The doctors said it was unlikely, but he miraculously survived and grew so adorably. I kindly advised the old lady to let go of her obsession, saying everything would go in a good direction. I didn’t expect the old lady to hold a grudge."
Was she kind?
She was obviously intentional!
The old lady retorted angrily, "You were the one who came over and said those things to me, even intentionally saying how my grandson had bad luck while this child was perfectly fine! You did it on purpose!"
Yang Jingwei immediately cried, "I’m really wronged, you’re the one imagining things and blaming others!"
Lin Zhiyi didn’t refute it, watching the two fight like dogs.
Suddenly, she laughed.
"It’s alright, it seems to be a misunderstanding. I said Mrs. Bai wouldn’t intentionally tell others about my brother’s condition, it’s like stabbing someone in the heart."
"However, I think Mrs. Bai only knows part, not the whole story, so she accidentally made the old lady misunderstand!"
"Although my brother was premature, his health is fine. Saying he was in critical condition was just to dispel some people’s thoughts. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Bai..."
The unfinished words from Lin Zhiyi were understood by those present.
This was obviously intentional by Yang Jingwei, unaware others had left a backup.
Yang Jingwei is really something, using a baby for manipulation.
Everyone inwardly avoided her like the plague.
"Everyone go eat, don’t let the good day be ruined."
Everyone chimed in.
The old man looked at Liu He, "The child is also tired, go rest. Let Lao Er and Lao San manage outside."
Liu He nodded, "Okay."
It provided her an excuse to leave.
Everyone returned to the banquet hall for the meal.
Lin Zhiyi walked behind, then quickened her pace to stand beside Gong Chen.
"Luckily, we stayed vigilant, otherwise who would have thought someone would have evil intentions."
"You stay with your mother; I’ll watch with Second Brother."
"Alright."
Lin Zhiyi went to Liu He, supporting her.
...
After most people had left, Gong Chen raised his hand to stop Yang Jingwei.
"Mrs. Bai, please stay."
Yang Jingwei smiled faintly, a provocative look in her eyes.
"Third Young Master, it seems there’s nothing for us to talk about. If you still want to trouble me, then I... can only go down together."
"..."
"Hahaha."
Yang Jingwei acted as if she had slapped Gong Chen and then turned to leave.
Gong Chen remained calm, watching her back and smirked.
"Then don’t disappoint me."
