Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 559

Chapter 559: Chapter 559: You Take the First Step, I’ll Take the Fifteenth

After Gong Yao mentioned the hair test, the meeting room fell into silence.

The needle marks on Gong Chen’s arm were too conspicuous; no one dared to guarantee that he hadn’t taken drugs.

Seeing this, Old Mr. Gong slightly raised his eyes and looked at one of the policemen.

That person nodded, picked up a box, and stepped forward.

"Third Young Master, to avoid unnecessary trouble, please cooperate with our work."

Gong Chen glanced coldly at the police, his lips cutting sharply.

"Alright."

The police immediately put on gloves, took out a pair of scissors and a container.

"This is our latest hair testing device, not only fast in testing, but anyone who has touched drugs within half a year will be exposed."

While speaking, he cut a small lock of Gong Chen’s hair and placed it into the device.

As a light came on, the surrounding air seemed compressed, suffocating.

Lin Zhiyi clenched her hands; although she knew Gong Chen was fine, she was still extremely nervous.

She just felt something was not right.

No one knew how long it took before the machine stopped, and the screen lit up.

The monitoring police immediately turned around: "He’s been using drugs! Arrest him!"

Lin Zhiyi’s breath hitched, all color drained from her face.

How could it be possible!

She rushed forward but was stopped, and in the corner of her eyes she noticed a trace of a smile in Old Mr. Gong and Gong Yao’s eyes.

Could it be...

Just as the police were about to touch Gong Chen, another policeman handcuffed him instead.

Everyone was in shock.

What kind of play was this?

The testing police officer was greatly alarmed: "What are you doing? Why are you arresting me instead of the Third Young Master?"

Another policeman’s face was heavy, reaching into his pocket, pulling out a tuft of hair.

"Someone came to the police station today saying we had a mole, and it turns out to be you."

"..."

The other was so scared they couldn’t speak.

"Cuff him."

The police cuffed the mole and then turned to Gong Chen.

"Third Young Master, to prove your innocence, could you please undergo another test?"

"No problem."

Gong Chen allowed the police to take another hair sample.

Turning around, he happened to meet Old Mr. Gong’s gaze, his dangerous face was covered in a layer of cold light, his lips curled into a fear-inducing faint smile.

Everything was understood without words.

If you act first, I’ll respond; it’s only fair. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Even Old Mr. Gong couldn’t help but stiffen his spine.

Time ticked by second by second until the light came on again, and everyone held their breath and watched.

The hair test showed normal results.

The police also breathed a sigh of relief: "Third Young Master, you’re clear."

"Today’s matter concerns the reputation of the Gong Group, I hope you handle it discreetly. Leave Ye Feifei to you."

Gong Chen calmly wrapped up the situation.

The police nodded: "Understood."

Then they took the mole and Ye Feifei away.

The meeting room door closed again.

Gong Chen adjusted his suit, looking around the bodyguards without any change in expression.

Without a word, the bodyguards quickly retreated in fear.

He sat back down, tapping his fingers lightly on the table, his thin lips slightly parted.

"Do you both have any other issues? If not, I have matters to attend to."

His tone was noticeably indifferent.

"What do you mean?" Old Mr. Gong deeply furrowed his brows, the fluctuations beneath his eyes showing a hint of weariness.

Gong Chen looked at him, his eyes dark and unfathomable.

"Since we’re recognizing relatives, naturally we should recognize them all. Only recognizing one, don’t you think it’s unjust?"

"..."

Old Mr. Gong was momentarily stunned.

A moment later, Gong Shiyan pushed the door open and entered.

His body moved aside, and a tall, graceful figure stepped in wearing high heels.

Ren Xiya.

She is now the Deputy General Manager of the European branch.

Gong Chen introduced: "This is the Deputy General Manager of the European branch, Scarlett. Like Daniel, she is Old Mr. Gong’s adopted daughter."

Gong Yao stared at Ren Xiya, momentarily speechless.

"Dad!" Gong Yao hurried to support him.

Ren Xiya disdainfully stepped aside, the old man sure knew how to act.

Gong Chen coldly said: "The ambulance is downstairs."

Gong Yao looked at Gong Chen in disbelief, realizing how laughable his previous underestimation was.

What he thought was control over everything was merely a part of Gong Chen’s strategy.

The one Gong Chen really wanted to deal with was not him, but Old Mr. Gong.

Soon, the ambulance took away Gong Yao and Mr. Gong.

Gong Chen unemotionally looked at the others in the meeting room.

"Three strikes, after this consider carefully before acting, any questions?"

"..."

"Hmm?"

Gong Chen’s expression was cold, his eyes indifferent, his upright posture maintaining a unique aura.

Everyone answered: "No questions."

"Meeting adjourned."

Gong Chen spoke with composure.

Everyone immediately stood up, seeing Gong Chen off.

Gong Chen unabashedly held Lin Zhiyi’s hand and walked outside.

"Let’s pick up the child and go home."

"Okay."

Lin Zhiyi nodded.

Upon exiting the meeting room, she was still shocked by the scene outside.

Except for Zhou Zhao standing, everyone else was lying on the ground.

Even the twin bodyguards that Old Mr. Gong prided himself on were fallen at Zhou Zhao’s feet.

Zhou Zhao’s face still bore bloodstains, his hand gripping a somewhat familiar knife.

Seeing them unharmed, he smiled.

"I said I wouldn’t let anyone disturb you, and I kept my word."

Just as Lin Zhiyi was about to commend his prowess.

His smile faded, and he suddenly coughed up blood, half-kneeling on the ground.

"Zhou Zhao!"
