Chapter 300: Chapter 300: She Doesn’t Even Know Who Her Biological Father Is Chapter 300: Chapter 300: She Doesn’t Even Know Who Her Biological Father Is Everyone looked at Gong Chen in disbelief.
Everyone knew that Old Mr. Gong dreaded being told he was old.
By publicly calling him old and saying that he spoke out of turn when drunk, Gong Chen undoubtedly crushed Old Mr. Gong’s face underfoot.
Old Mr. Gong’s expression tightened, his beard trembled, and even his usually shrewd eyes clouded over for a mont.
It seed he couldn’t believe Gong Chen would say such things about him.
Lin Zhiyi couldn’t believe it either, she didn’t understand why Gong Chen would do this.
She slowly lifted her head, her eyes flickered, and she saw the so-called answer.
Sang Ran’s face was pale as she clutched Gong Chen’s hand, her expression worried, as if she might collapse at any mont.
The Sang Family also stared at Gong Chen with suspicion.
Gong Chen’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He calmly looked up, and everyone thought he was looking at Sang Li.
His deep voice mixed with a cool breath, “Today, Xiao Ran invited both families to eat, and I don’t want to discuss trivial matters.”
Sang Ran smiled faintly, “I’m fine, everyone please eat.”
During her speech, she glanced at Lin Zhiyi, her expression complex.
Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips and lowered her eyes.
She really shouldn’t have co.
Lin Zhiyi lost her appetite, put down her chopsticks, and withdrew her hands.
At that mont, Sang Li grasped her hand, looking directly at Old Mr. Gong.
“I’m here to thank Old Mr. Gong for his complints. In so aspects, it’s better to be simple, especially in matters of the heart. We n of the Sang Family are simple, which is why we’ve been able to prosper, as marriages incur losses without a good wife.”
His words were sowhat sarcastic.
As part of the marriage alliance, both families surely knew each other’s secrets.
Certainly, Old Mr. Gong’s romantic escapades were sothing Sang Li knew about.
Sure enough, Old Mr. Gong’s face turned a mixed shade of anger and embarrassnt, struggling to maintain his dignity.
But Sang Li acted as if he saw nothing and gently squeezed Lin Zhiyi’s hand.
Only then did Lin Zhiyi co back to her senses and asked in a low voice, “What wife?”
Sang Li raised an eyebrow, “Entering a partnership isn’t a loss.”
Lin Zhiyi laughed, turning her hand to interlock it with his, silently saying thank you.
She no longer paid attention to that obscure, dark gaze.
Mr. Sang looked around and imdiately understood the situation.
He diated with a toast, “I’m also getting old, I don’t want to ddle in my children’s affairs anymore, after all, it’s their own life, and I trust his judgnt.”
He not only gave Old Mr. Gong a way out but also safeguarded Sang Li and Lin Zhiyi.
Old Mr. Gong managed a dignified smile, although he was seething inside.
But with Mr. Sang phrasing it that way, he couldn’t say much more.
Just as everyone thought this episode was over, Ye Feifei suddenly stood up.
She interrupted, “I think Old Mr. Gong is actually not wrong, so matters should be treated more cautiously.”
“Feifei, don’t talk nonsense,” Sang Ran interjected, “Zhiyi is my brother’s girlfriend.”
Upon hearing the word ‘girlfriend’, Ye Feifei struggled even more to swallow her anger.
She glanced inadvertently at Wen Qing, who was sipping his drink.
Wen Qing looked at his watch, nodded slightly, and tossed back his drink, as if enjoying the drama unfolding.
Ye Feifei smiled at Mr. Sang, “Uncle Sang, don’t misunderstand, Zhiyi and I are actually colleagues, I spoke up because I was afraid you might not understand her well enough.”
Ye Feifei purposefully didn’t specify, but by ntioning ‘colleague’, she seed to imply she knew a lot of insider information, naturally raising the Sang Family’s suspicions.
Especially seeing the Gong Family’s scornful, dismissive laughter.
They grew even more doubtful of Lin Zhiyi’s background.
Lin Zhiyi glanced at Ye Feifei, who responded with a challenging smile.
At that mont, Lin Zhiyi had a bad premonition.
The next second, the private room door was pushed open amid the arguing voices.
Seeing the person who entered, Lin Zhiyi froze.
“Mom?”
Liu He was dressed rather flamboyantly today, even excessively grand.
She glanced at the people seated and said out of nowhere, “Zhiyi, they wouldn’t let in.”
Lin Zhiyi quickly went up to her and whispered, “Mom, why are you here?”
Ever since Liu He and Gong Shiyan had moved out of the Gong Family, they had been completely marginalized, rarely being specially invited to most occasions.
They were happy to enjoy their own freedom.
That’s why she didn’t understand why Liu He would barge in.
Liu He looked stunned and said, “Wasn’t it you and Mr. Sang who invited ? The Sang Family said they wanted to have a al with , they called in a rush, I could only find soone to do my makeup briefly. But the front desk clerk wouldn’t let in, no matter how I explained, he simply ignored . How could I not be anxious?”
“You could have called .”
“I did, but you didn’t answer.”
Liu He took out her phone and opened the call history.
Lin Zhiyi then rembered that she had set her phone to silent mode before entering the private room.
Thinking it over, she looked toward the front desk clerk.
Clearly, the clerk could have explained things but had let Liu He barge in, obviously on purpose.
Before she could ask, Wen Qing stood up.
She politely offered her seat, saying, “Second Madam is here, please sit here. Miss Lin, aren’t you going to ask your mom to sit down?”
Mr. Sang appeared surprised and said, “Second Madam? She is Miss Lin’s mother? Then Miss Lin…”
Wen Qing looked even more surprised than Mr. Sang and glanced at Sang Li, struggling to say, “Didn’t Sang Li tell you? Miss Lin is nominally the adopted daughter of Second Young Master, technically, she should even call Third Young Master a little uncle. But don’t think too much about it, she doesn’t even know who her biological father is.”
Upon hearing this, Mr. Sang and other Sang Family elders slightly furrowed their brows.
They didn’t mind Lin Zhiyi’s humble identity, but such an intricate identity was indeed troubleso.
Lin Zhiyi imdiately explained, “I have already cleared things up with the Gong Family…”
Before she could finish, Wen Qing seemingly unintentionally interrupted her.
“Miss Lin, you’re too anxious, you and Sang Li have just gotten together and you’re already eager to have your mother et his parents. Did you forget that today’s main characters are Xiao Ran and Third Young Master, this is making it… difficult for everyone.”
It sounded as if Lin Zhiyi was forcing Sang Li to marry her.
“Zhiyi, you can’t always use the sa tactics, can you? Oh… sorry, I misspoke.”
Ye Feifei covered her mouth after speaking, looking as if she had accidentally said sothing wrong.
But the speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional.
Mr. Sang furrowed his brow and asked, “Feifei, what do you an by that?”
Ye Feifei reluctantly said, “I know I shouldn’t talk recklessly, but I’ve heard from other colleagues that Zhiyi was previously kept by a wealthy man, tried to trap him into marriage through public opinion but failed, and eventually, it was the Gong Family who intervened to remove the trending news. So people even say…”
“What do they say?” Mr. Sang pressed.
“They also say that Second Madam was a mistress before she married into the Gong Family. I didn’t believe it originally, but seeing how well-coordinated they are today, I really can’t help but believe it.”
Ye Feifei pursed her lips as she looked at Lin Zhiyi, hardly concealing her triumphant expression.
Mr. Sang didn’t make a final judgnt but instead looked at Sang Li, patiently asking, “Sang Li, what is really going on here?”
Sang Li’s expression slightly darkened.
The issue was complicated, involving Lin Zhiyi’s car accident and mory loss, and it wasn’t sothing that could be explained in just a few words.
“Dad, I’ll explain it well to you later.”
“My dear in-law, I’m truly sorry about these troubling matters,” Old Mr. Gong stood up with a sighing voice.
In reality, he affird every word Ye Feifei had said.
Directly pinning Lin Zhiyi and Liu He to a pillar of sha.
