Chapter 760: Chapter 760: We’ve Been Discovered

Gong Chen looked towards the doorway at Chen Jin.

Chen Jin handed over the documents he carried to Gong Shiyan.

Gong Shiyan flipped through them and found a call log.

“Isn’t this… Xiao He’s assistant’s call log, which was mentioned before?”

“Second Brother, look at the place I marked,” Gong Chen said calmly.

Gong Shiyan turned a page and saw a phone number that had been highlighted.

“This is Yang Jingwei’s phone number.”

“This is the only time Yang Jingwei’s number appears. Don’t you think it’s strange?” Gong Chen responded.

Gong Shiyan compared it with other numbers.

“So many unique numbers, it looks like the Bai Family’s scam system, it seems Yang Jingwei hasn’t completely severed ties with those overseas people.”

“Indeed, but there’s still one problem. Since Yang Jingwei used the Bai Family’s system, why would she still use her own phone number? If Liu He really got into trouble, the life assistant would definitely be blameworthy. Is Yang Jingwei really not afraid of being found out?”

Gong Chen’s words hit home with Gong Shiyan.

He looked again at the call log in his hand.

He seemed to understand Gong Chen’s implication.

“Are you saying someone wants to frame Yang Jingwei?”

“Not frame, this matter should be Yang Jingwei’s doing, it’s just that someone knew earlier than us and used this way to inform us,” Gong Chen explained.

“So someone is helping us? No, not helping us, they want us to deal with Yang Jingwei, but we don’t know if they are friend or foe.”

Gong Shiyan worriedly put away the documents.

Gong Chen said, “Who do you think it will be?”

“You mean… him? But why?”

Gong Shiyan referred to Old Mr. Gong.

Such things do seem in his style.

But why would he do this?

Liu He and the child are not a threat at all.

If she gave birth to a daughter, Gong Shiyan would also return some shares as per regulations.

For the old man, it’s a win-win situation.

There’s no need at all to go the extra mile.

But…

“Dad is eyeing the things in the Bai mother and daughter’s hands. If he uses you and me to get rid of them, he can have Gong Yao, the Bai family’s son-in-law, inherit everything.”

“Indeed.”

Gong Chen nodded.

For some reason, he always felt things weren’t so simple.

“What are you talking about?”

Lin Zhiyi walked into the living room.

Gong Chen and Gong Shiyan exchanged a glance, neither mentioned the matter.

“Nothing, just some company issues. Did your mom sleep?”

“Yeah, but not peacefully,” Lin Zhiyi said.

Gong Shiyan turned and said, “I’ll go check. It’s late, you two shouldn’t leave either. I’ve already asked someone to prepare the guest room, and in the morning, let Chen Jin bring Xingxing over.”

“Okay.”

Gong Chen agreed.

Lin Zhiyi watched Gong Shiyan go upstairs before sitting next to Gong Chen.

“Third Young Master, you actually agreed to stay with Uncle.”

“If I didn’t agree, you wouldn’t sleep well all night. We’ll discuss taking your mom to the hospital tomorrow.”

“Thank you.”

Lin Zhiyi leaned on his shoulder, feeling much more at ease.

But still feeling a bit uneasy.

…

Bai Family.

Bai Ruoshu watched as Yang Jingwei put down her phone and immediately moved closer.

“Mom, how is it?”

Yang Jingwei seemed deep in thought.

Bai Ruoshu was a bit impatient: “Mom, how did it go?”

Yang Jingwei turned and gave Bai Ruoshu a cold stare: “We’ve been found out.”

“What? How is that possible? They couldn’t possibly find you, we’re using Dad’s old overseas system, and the numbers are random, they can’t trace us.” Bai Ruoshu retorted.

Yang Jingwei stood up, pacing around the room.

“The numbers indeed won’t expose us, but Liu He’s life assistant can’t fool me. She always wants money to handle matters, yet when I asked her to increase the dosage today, she agreed without even asking for more money, unless…”

“Unless there’s someone else facing her, then what do they want?” Bai Ruoshu said.

“It seems they want to turn the tables,” Yang Jingwei sneered, “if Liu He gets into trouble tomorrow but doesn’t deliver prematurely, it means my guess was right.”

“Mom, is that the ‘seven live eight not live’ you were talking about?” Bai Ruoshu asked.

“Yes, the medicine I gave the life assistant includes a small amount of inducing agents. The cumulative effects of the drug will lead to premature birth. Considering the dosage and timing tomorrow, she will surely deliver early. But Liu He is an older mother; even if they try to turn the tables, it’s impossible to really let the baby come out early.”

Yang Jingwei crossed her arms.

She squinted her eyes: “Liu He can’t fool me.”

“Mom, Liu He probably didn’t think of turning the tables. It’s likely Lin Zhiyi and the Third Young Master’s idea. Even if we know their plan, there’s nothing we can do.” Bai Ruoshu shook her head slightly, thinking of no other solution.

Yang Jingwei cast a glance at her.

“You’ve never been pregnant, so naturally you don’t know how dangerous pregnancy can be; apart from drugs, many things can lead to premature birth.”

“Mom, do you mean to handle it yourself?” Bai Ruoshu asked.

“Yes, I’ll handle it myself. But in the end, no matter how they investigate, it’ll never lead back to me, hahaha…”

Yang Jingwei laughed heartily.

Bai Ruoshu found the laughter oddly jarring, even finding her mother in front of her quite unfamiliar.

Noticing her gaze, Yang Jingwei changed her expression to a smile.

She turned and took Bai Ruoshu’s hand.

“Ruoshu, everything of the Gong Family is yours, and mom will surely bring you back to your previous life.”

“Thank you, Mom.”

As long as Yang Jingwei was on her side, Bai Ruoshu didn’t mind much else.

…

The next day.

Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen took Liu He to the hospital according to plan.

After setting up the ward, Liu He leaned worriedly on the headboard.

“Is this really okay? My eyelid has been twitching since last night.”

“Mom, aren’t we here? Don’t worry,” Lin Zhiyi comforted.

“Okay.” Liu He nodded.

Gong Chen continued, “To avoid suspicion, Second Brother has gone to the company. Shortly, someone will call him saying you got into trouble, which will spread the news that you are preserving the pregnancy.”

“Lao San, thank you.” Liu He said.

Gong Chen glanced at Lin Zhiyi: “It’s my duty.”

Liu He smiled: “Looks like it’s Zhiyi I’m indebted to.”

“Mom, what are you saying?”

Lin Zhiyi blushed.

“Alright, alright, you two go to work. Didn’t Zhiyi schedule a client appointment? There are doctors and nurses here, no need to worry.”

Liu He waved her hand, signaling them to leave quickly.

Lin Zhiyi checked the time. She indeed had a client to meet.

But she was worried about leaving Liu He alone.

Gong Chen said: “Come on, get on with your business first.”

Lin Zhiyi nodded, then approached Liu He and grasped her hand.

“Mom, call someone if anything happens. There are people arranged by Uncle outside the door.”

“Got it, who’s the mom here after all?”

Liu He picked up some fruit from the bedside dish and started eating.

Lin Zhiyi smiled, then turned and left the room with Gong Chen.

…

Bai Family.

“Mom, the people monitoring Liu He said she was taken to the hospital first thing this morning.”

“Did she give birth?” Yang Jingwei fiddled with the flowers in front of her.

“As you predicted, no, reportedly preserving the pregnancy.”

“Hehe.”
