Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 589

Chapter 589: Chapter 589: I Won’t Become Him

"Talk."

In the end, Old Mr. Gong compromised.

Gong Chen glanced at Ren Xiya, indicating for her to state her terms.

Ren Xiya slightly propped her chin, fully aware that being able to negotiate was already her greatest victory.

If this continued, even if she had the ability to send Gong Yao in,

she would still be abandoned by the Gong Family.

Those old folks valued face and family honor more than their lives.

If they found out she brought shame to the Gong Family, she wouldn’t have a good ending.

She had painstakingly returned, not just to deal with Gong Yao.

After pondering for a while, she raised her eyes to Gong Yao.

"I want to return to headquarters in a position equivalent to Gong Yao’s."

"You... on what grounds?" Gong Yao said displeased.

"On the grounds that over these years abroad, my performance is better than yours, my skills are better than yours. You’re only sitting in your position because you have two more ounces of flesh than me below, right?" Ren Xiya puffed up her chest, "Sorry, in fact, I have much more than you."

In what was originally a very serious situation, Li Huan’s heart was in his throat.

He was so shocked by Ren Xiya’s words that he started coughing.

"Sorry, I caught a cold and couldn’t hold it."

Ren Xiya glanced at Li Huan, a hint of playfulness in her cold expression.

After retracting her gaze, she said unhurriedly, "I’ll give you ten minutes to consider."

As time passed by seconds, the atmosphere in the office grew increasingly strange.

Old Mr. Gong closed his eyes and eventually nodded in agreement.

"Alright, you drop the lawsuit first, then we’ll arrange it for you."

"No need to be so troublesome."

Gong Chen waved his hand at the side.

Chen Jin pulled a letter of appointment from the briefcase.

"Both parties just need to sign, I’ll have Chen Jin release the news immediately."

"You... Hmph, it seems you were prepared." The old man sneered.

"I don’t fight battles I’m not prepared for."

If the letter of appointment wasn’t signed immediately, once Ren Xiya dropped the lawsuit, the old man would find a reason to banish her to some obscure corner.

Once both parties had signed, Chen Jin scanned it with his phone and immediately posted it on the Gong Group’s official website.

In less than a minute, the old man and Gong Yao both received the news.

The old man angrily placed the phone down and turned to leave, Gong Yao following him out.

Ren Xiya waved with a smile, "Dad, take care; rest assured I’ll drop the lawsuit soon."

After speaking, she walked over to the police and signed the document to withdraw the lawsuit.

As for the assassin, even without her case, he was not going to be released.

By the time they stepped out of the police station, the old man and Gong Yao had already left.

Ren Xiya turned to Gong Chen, "How did you know I wanted the appointment letter?"

"Not hard to guess."

"If the Gong Family were smart, they’d hand power entirely over to you."

Ren Xiya looked at Gong Chen with newfound respect.

Gong Chen reminded her, "Now that the lawsuit is withdrawn, don’t bring it up again in the Gong Family, especially when arguing with Gong Yao, or they’ll think you’re just a petty woman who brings up old issues."

"Understood."

"Let’s go."

"Hmm."

After only a few steps, Ren Xiya suddenly staggered and fell to the ground without warning.

Luckily, Li Huan quickly caught her.

"What’s going on?"

"..." Ren Xiya panted, unable to speak.

Li Huan thought of something and immediately opened her coat; the sweater at her side was already stained red with blood from her wound.

Lin Zhiyi quickly took a handkerchief from her bag and pressed it on the wound, "Why is it bleeding again?"

Ren Xiya grimaced with pain, "When he hit me, he deliberately knocked me against the table. I don’t want him to look down on me."

"You still have the energy to joke." Li Huan quickly picked her up and rushed to the car.

Gong Chen and Lin Zhiyi followed closely behind.

...

Back at the hospital.

Li Huan took Ren Xiya inside to treat the wound.

Lin Zhiyi stood in a daze, the blood on her hand already dried.

Suddenly, her palm felt warm and moist.
