Looking at the words her eldest brother said, Gong Ruini had only one thought in her mind: could she really be a mystic?

If she were really that mystical, she could definitely set up a stall and make money.

After a bit of banter, she really didn’t understand, how something that seemed quite improbable could actually become true.

Gong Ruini couldn’t help but smile wryly, "You said Gong Zheng and his son Gong Mingrui are here?"

Gong Ruwen knew his sister didn’t believe it, and honestly he was confused too, "That’s just what Mom told me."

"And he doesn’t intend to leave Gong Mingrui with us, does he?" This is class time, and if it’s just to congratulate her on going to college, is it necessary to bring his son along?

"By the way, did his girlfriend come?" Gong Ruini couldn’t even remember the girl’s name and wasn’t inclined to think much about it; she only knew she was someone good at scheming, particularly suitable for Gong Zheng.

"She’s at home with the kids, apparently just had another son." Gong Ruwen felt a little sorry for Gong Mingrui, but it wasn’t enough for him to feel pity for this little cousin he barely knew.

"You don’t know, Mom said that after they came in, their eyes were darting around." Gong Ruwen didn’t see the scene himself, but just hearing the description made him dislike it immensely.

"What does Dad think?" Gong Ruini knew Gong Tao probably wouldn’t agree, but Gong Zheng shamelessly begging could do wonders.

No, maybe not begging, "Maybe he plans to just leave Gong Mingrui at our place."

"And then he sneaks away?" Gong Ruwen was really frightened by Gong Ruini’s assumption, but thinking about it, it wasn’t impossible; that guy was indeed shameless,

"Are we going back now?" Seeing the place their family lived in now, would they still leave? No, Gong Zheng would leave, and if he left a kid, should they take care of him or not?

The siblings felt a bad situation brewing, so they each asked their teachers for leave and hurried home.

Gong Zheng didn’t expect that the information he had unintentionally gathered would lead him to discover something incredible.

That being, everything he thought was wrong, and the idea that Gong Zhuang was the richest in the Gong Family was false; he simply couldn’t compare to Gong Tao.

This son he looked down upon not only attended Jing University, but was also doing extremely well in business at school.

What made him the most envious was, if it were just businesses in Beijing, it would be fine, but he went to develop in Yangcheng, and he was doing exceptionally well there. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

From the reliable sources, Gong Zheng learned that his second brother had made a massive amount of money through several major deals in Yangcheng; it was an amount he couldn’t earn after many years of hard work in Yangcheng.

This made him very jealous; he thought buying two houses in Yangcheng was already quite an achievement, but he realized it was not comparable at all.

"Mingrui, you must listen to your second uncle." Gong Zheng hoped his son could win Gong Tao’s favor.

By that time, as long as he could pass some information to him, it would be enough to make money.

"You’ll have a better future with your second uncle than with me." Gong Zheng looked helpless as if he had no other choice.

Gong Mingrui had a look of understanding on his face, but in his heart, he was burning with anger. Previously, it was agreed they would move him to Yangcheng upon buying a house, yet nothing ever came of it.

Instead, he received a message that Gong Zheng remarried and became a father again, and had another son. At that moment, Gong Mingrui knew that with a younger son, how could they still care for a son they barely saw?

Especially after the stuff and money from Yangcheng were slowly decreasing, Gong Mingrui felt nothing but hate for Gong Zheng.

He harbored deep resentment towards the brother he had never met and the aunt he had only called a few times.

"I will, I’ll listen to Second Uncle." Gong Mingrui didn’t find it hard to gain his favor, as pleasing people was his skill for survival in the Wu Family.

In such a terrible environment as the Wu Family, he managed to endure; here, he could definitely do even better.

Once he takes over more businesses from Gong Tao, he would retaliate against those who bullied him one by one and wouldn’t spare Gong Zheng’s family of three.

Busy scheming how to exploit Gong Tao, and how to teach Gong Mingrui to gather useful information and pass it on, Gong Zheng completely missed the hint of hatred in Gong Mingrui’s eyes as he looked at him.

"Ruixi, see the place your second uncle lives at; though many people live there, it’s big enough. Dad may be useless, but I’m giving you a chance."

"Son, you have to know Dad loves you." Gong Zheng previously felt a bit guilty to Gong Mingrui, always feeling like he was deceiving him by not fulfilling his promises.

But now he felt he hadn’t lied to Gong Mingrui; he just wanted him to have better choices.

Love? More like love for money, "I know, I’ve always known Dad loves me." Gong Mingrui cried in Gong Zheng’s arms, with such immense sorrow.

It’s just acting, not that he doesn’t know how to act, moreover his red and puffy eyes would make his second uncle even more reluctant to let him go.

"Don’t cry, don’t cry, or Dad will cry too." Gong Zheng, heartbroken, thinking he was supposed to be the most successful in the Gong Family, how could it turn out like this? How could Gong Tao get rich, how could Gong Zhuang get rich?

How could they keep buying houses, doing business, making money — is doing business really that profitable? Maybe he should try it too.

As for starting capital for business, isn’t there a wealthy older brother? Knowing the younger brother has no money, shouldn’t he provide him with financial support?

After learning about Gong Tao’s earnings, whatever he linked to money, he believed his second brother should give him money so he could have capital to start a business.

When Gong Jiaming and Gong Jiaxin learned that Gong Zheng really brought Gong Mingrui, they were stunned, and both couldn’t help but consider the same issue, would this kid, Gong Mingrui, end up staying here?

This made Gong Jiaming quite unhappy; even though he had already left home to study in Beijing, at home, hadn’t the kid, Gong Mingrui, ever dug traps for him?

Unexpectedly, this guy dared to act boldly, hmph, this time he must teach him a good lesson, or he’d really think he’s something special.

Gong Jiaxin pulled her enraged brother. "Calm down."

Then she whispered in Gong Jiaming’s ear, "More than you, they also have talks about Gong Mingrui’s arrival."

Right, why did he forget, Gong Ruini always discussed, disliked, and had issues with Gong Mingrui, how would they accept such a kid?

"So, do we just stay quiet?" Gong Jiaming humbly sought advice.

Watch the drama unfold, without worrying if they’ll be kicked out, "You need to support them."

Fine, just quietly listen to his sister, she definitely wouldn’t let him suffer any losses.
