Chapter 230 - Black Hands Behind
After hearing his subordinate's report, Gong Yexiao's handsome face became gloomy and unsightly. Finally, he had some ideas about the assassination plan, and it was most likely Lu Hai who had tried to assassinate him.
Gong Yexiao had made many enemies in the business world, but he was able to regularly receive updates on the actions of those who were a threat to him and who made him aware of their actions. Thus, he had made preparations in advance for the prediction of those who were in danger.
But when Lu Hai attacked, he was really not on guard at all, because he felt that Lu Hai would definitely not sense it.He was too careless.
Lu Hai must have been desperate to take his life so he could take action. If he died, then Cheng Liyue would be supporting him with the evidence in his hands.When Cheng Liyue poured some water and walked in, Gong Yexiao's expression recovered to a tranquil state, he took the water from her hands and was stunned when he saw her expression. He comforted her, "Don't worry, you will be able to sue Lu Hai with the evidence soon enough."
"Hm!" I won't let him go. " Cheng Liyue clenched his teeth, and a look of hatred flashed past his eyes.
did not tell her the latter part of the story. If he told her, she would only worry and blame herself, and even feel guilty. Perhaps, if he said it out, she would feel even more indebted to him.
However, he didn't want to do that.
What he wanted was to have her happy when he got her, not to have her owe him so much that it would be a burden to him.
This was the highest level of love for a woman.
Cheng Liyue didn't know at the moment that this man almost lost his life because he wanted to help her find out about her father. If she knew, she would really feel so guilty and want to die.
In the blink of an eye, another day had passed. Five days had passed, and Gong Yexiao's wounds were recovering well. After Cheng Liyue sent Ozawa to school in the morning, she saw Gong Yexiao getting off the bed with the help of his bodyguards the moment he entered the room.
"You … How can you get out of bed? " Cheng Liyue asked angrily.Gong Yexiao laughed, he stood up and indicated to the bodyguards by his side that they did not need to support him anymore.
Gong Yexiao walked step by step towards the panic-stricken her. Even though his steps were unstable and revealed a pained expression between his brows, he did not stop his steps. He walked all the way to her front and reached out to lightly stroke her cheek, "I can't lie down forever."
"But you can't do anything now! You can't even get out of bed... The doctor said that you must lie in bed for half a month. " Cheng Liyue was so anxious that she wanted to immediately send him back to bed.
It had only been five days, and he didn't want to live anymore. What if the wound split open again?
"Don't worry, my wounds are all right now. They won't affect my normal walking speed.""Lie down on the bed." Cheng Liyue suddenly became angry, and her small face looked extremely angry.
Gong Yexiao was startled, and could only reply, "Alright! I'll just lie down, there's no need for you to be so angry. "
Gong Yexiao went back to lie down. When Cheng Liyue went upstairs to cook for him, the bodyguard went up and asked, "Gym Tung, then are you still going back to palace today?""Make an appointment with my grandpa for dinner!" Gong Yexiao could only sigh. She had to accompany the little fellow tonight, so she didn't have time to care about him.
But at least, he didn't want to do anything that would make her sad.
Gong Yexiao knew that he had hidden for five days, he had to appear now. He had to let those people who were hoping that he had lost his life prove that he, Gong Yexiao, was still alive and unharmed.Ten minutes after she left, with the help of his bodyguards, Gong Yexiao changed into a normal suit and leather shoes. Fortunately, this time his handsome face did not have a single scar, so after putting on his suit, his aura of an expert did not change at all.
Gong Yexiao's car, escorted by two black jeeps, left through another door in the garage and drove towards palace.
When palace heard that he was coming back, he had already prepared a table of dinner. This time, he did not invite Huo Yanran, but in his heart, he had already built a bridge between them young people.
"Why didn't you bring the Ozawa back?" Old Master Gong asked in surprise when he saw that he was the only one who had returned."He's going to bed early tonight, so it's not convenient to bring him out. I'll bring him over during the weekend!" Gong Yexiao laughed and said. His steps were steady and it was impossible to tell that he was injured.
Gong Yan had set up a spy in palace long ago, so the moment Gong Yexiao entered the house, he knew. He was so shocked that he couldn't believe that Gong Yexiao had actually appeared safe and sound. Furthermore, he went back to the palace to eat?
He did not believe it. He had to see for himself, so he found a reason to come to the palace.
When Gong Yan walked into the hall of palace, he saw Gong Yexiao's lazy figure sitting on the sofa, drinking the tea brewed by the old man.
"Second Uncle, you're here." Gong Yexiao revealed a complicated smile.That smile, in Gong Yan's opinion, was simply ridiculing his recent actions. Gong Yan's chest paused for a moment, and he forcefully displayed a natural expression, "Ye Xiao, it's been a few days since we've seen each other, what are you busy with!"
Gong Yexiao was not surprised to see Gong Yan. He smiled and replied, "What else can I do? Of course it's for the company."
Gong Yan's sharp eyes closely observed Gong Yexiao's expression, he looked calm and there were no traces of injuries on his face, but looking at his body, it did not seem like he had come out from an exploding car.
Could it be that his news was wrong? That night, Gong Yexiao was not in the car at all?"Ye Xiao, there's something I need to ask you seriously. Did something happen to your team?" Gong Yan planned to ask directly, wanting to see Gong Yexiao's reaction.
Sure enough, Gong Yexiao's face flashed with anger, "Not bad, I lost a bodyguard."
Old Master Gong immediately looked at his grandson in shock, "What? What happened to your convoy? Are you alright? "
"Grandfather, don't worry. I was not in the caravan at the time. Someone launched a rocket from high up in the sky at my vehicle, causing one of my bodyguards to die on the spot. I am investigating this matter strictly." Gong Yexiao's expression was filled with a cold anger.
Old Master Gong was shocked, but the butler would not use any matters to provoke him. Thus, he did not know that this matter had been reported on the news."No matter who it is, Ye Xiao, find them and don't let them off easily." Old Master Gong heavily swung his staff, he was so angry that he could not tear it apart.
When Gong Yan looked at Gong Yexiao's expression, his anger was obvious, and his expression did not show any signs of being injured either. He was secretly vexed, looks like his nephew's life was truly great, to be able to let him escape calamity just like that.
