Gong Ming looked at the video smugly. “Let’s see how you’re going to make the compensation. Go cry and pay up.”

The amount of money was not small. Even if Fu Xi’s family was rich, they would have to give her a good scolding. More importantly, this incident would show how incompetent she was.

Gong Hao had just taken over the company, and such a big incident had already happened. He couldn’t wait to see what else Gong Hao could be proud of.

At this moment, Zhang Shan suddenly rushed in.

“Second Master, bad news. Look at the trending searches.”

Eh?

Gong Ming glared at him unhappily. He clicked on the refresh button and suddenly widened his eyes.

[Li Xue’er posted a video to prove her innocence. She was forced into bed.]

Below the trending searches was a video posted by Li Xue’er’s official account. In the video, Gong Ming’s face was clearly displayed.

He opened the video and his voice could be heard clearly.

“Serve this big client well. I’ll give you this point.”

“She’s nothing. I’ll protect you.”

…

Gong Ming heavily smashed the ashtray onto the floor, his chest violently heaving up and down.

He had been tricked!

“Second Young Master, Old Master has asked you to go to the study room.” Zhang Shan informed him in a low voice. Gong Ming was stunned. He wiped his face and strode towards the study room.

The moment he entered, he saw Fu Xi standing at the side of the room and Gong Hao in a wheelchair. Behind the desk was the stern looking Gong You.

Gong You violently slammed the table, causing the documents on it to fall to the ground.

“How many times have I told you that brothers have to help each other? Yet you attacked your own family time and time again. What are your intentions?”

Gong Ming lowered his head, not daring to make a sound.

This time, the evidence was conclusive and there was even a video recording. It was useless no matter what he said. From what he knew of Gong You’s temper, the punishment would probably be worse if he insisted on talking back.

Seeing that he didn’t retort, Gong You felt his curses were like hitting cotton, not allowing him to vent his anger at all.

“You will pay the penalty fee.”

Gong Ming nodded obediently and did not dare to bargain.

“Also, hand over all the companies in your hands.” Gong You rubbed his brows and his voice turned colder. “You will just receive dividends from your shares.”

That meant that he had no real power!

Gong Ming clenched his fingers so tightly that his nails dug into his palms. The fury in his eyes was practically burning.

He had been completely removed from the Gong Family’s power core.

“Alright, let’s leave this matter at that. Gong Ming, don’t disappoint me again, or else I’ll pretend I don’t have a son like you.” Gong You waved his hand tiredly, signaling for Gong Hao and the others to leave.

From the beginning to the end, the other two did not say a word. They were like two unrelated spectators.

As Fu Xi pushed Gong Hao past Gong Ming, she suddenly frowned.

Something was wrong.

Gong Ming’s aura gave off an illusion that made one’s heart freeze. But when she turned to look again, Gong Ming’s head was still lowered without the slightest change.

Was she mistaken?

Fu Xi shook her head and ignored him, pushing Gong Hao away.

After they left, Gong Ming looked at Gong You. Seeing that he had no other instructions, he silently left. On his returning to his own villa, he called Zhang Shan.

“Find someone. I want that pair to become a ghost couple.”

“Yes.” Zhang Shan agreed.

“Tell them to be smart and not to give away any clues. If the old man finds out that I was the one who did it, you will report to hell with them.”

Gong Ming’s voice was bone-chilling. Zhang Shan shivered and immediately agreed.

“Yes, Second Master. Don’t worry.”
