Chapter 664: Chess Piece
Xiao Letong accompanied his great-grandfather to sit in the Gong Family courtyard while Xiao Lingyu was cleaning the room.
The weather was good. All the things had been taken out to absorb the sunlight. Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang didn’t know these things. They were not as attentive as women.
“Great-grandfather, is Beijing fun?” Sitting on his small stool, Xiao Letong opened his big curious eyes wide and asked crisply.
Old Master Gong stroked his little head and said with a smile, “Beijing is fun. There are so many ancient buildings, and they’re as beautiful and grand as the ones on TV. In the future, great-grandfather will bring Tong Tong back to Beijing, okay?”
“Okay!” After replying, Xiao Letong asked suspiciously, “Since Beijing is so fun, why would great-grandfather want to live in our village?”
“Haha, because Taoyuan village is very beautiful,” Old Master Gong explained. “It’s very comfortable to live here.”
Xiao Letong said with a half-understanding tone, “Great-grandfather, but I want to go to the capital to take a look!”
In his previous life, he passed away at the age of five. He had stayed in Taoyuan Village all his life and had never seen the vast world outside.
Although he had lived for thousands of years after crossing over to another world, that was a different world.
He was two years old already, but because of his father’s identity, he could not go anywhere.
To be honest, ever since he was born, he had always wanted to go out for a walk. However, he was too young, and the Xiao Family wouldn’t agree. Also, he didn’t want to leave his mother. He had to protect her safety. Lastly, his parents had an accident not long after he was born.
Due to many reasons, the furthest place he had traveled was City Z, and that was when his mother brought him there.
When he saw the ancient city of the capital on television, he felt a surge of emotion in his heart. He wanted to go to the capital even though he knew how dangerous it was.
When Elder Gong heard that Xiao Letong wanted to go to the capital to take a look, he immediately said happily, “Sure, whenever you want to go, great-grandfather will bring you there, okay?”
Xiao Letong immediately said happily, “Thank you, great-grandfather!”
In any case, Gong Tianhao, that brat, had already woken up.
Even if that Brat lost his memory and couldn’t remember his wife and child, it wouldn’t change the fact that Xiao Lingyu and her son were his wife and child. Plus, with Gong Zhen protecting them, Xiao Lingyu and her son could visit the capital any time they wanted.
As for Gong Tianhao, he knew how to look after himself.
Old Master Gong smiled and asked, “Tong Tong, when do you want to go to the capital? Great-grandfather will bring you there!”
Xiao Letong thought for a moment and said, “Mother said that our supermarket hasn’t opened in the capital yet. When our supermarket opens there, shall we go to the capital?”
Old Master Gong nodded with a smile. “Okay, that’s good. Tomorrow, Grandpa will send someone to see which place in the capital is the best to open our supermarket.”
When Gong Tianhao was still around, Xiao Lingyu’s business had already reached the capital. She had opened up a high-end route just by relying on peanuts and peanut oil.
However, after the car accident, in order not to attract the attention of the various forces in the capital, this business was stopped.
No one knew that the things sold by Li Yuanhang were actually products from Taoyuan Village.
Even though Xiao Lingyu had opened up many chains in the country, she hadn’t made a venture to the capital. It was too dangerous. But now that Gong Tianhao had woken up, their safety would be more ensured. Xiao Lingyu started to plan to open her first supermarket in Beijing, entering the capital’s high-end market.
Of course, Xiao Lingyu definitely wouldn’t use the name of the Gong family’s daughter-in-law.
When Xiao Letong heard this, he tilted his head and said with some doubt, “But great-grandfather, Mommy said that we couldn’t rely on great-grandfather or the Gong family. She has to rely on her own ability to stand firm in the capital.”
Old Master Gong was surprised. He asked curiously, “Tong Tong, is that what your mother said?”
Xiao Letong nodded and said, “Yes, that’s what she said.”
Old Master Gong immediately gave him a thumbs up and said, “Tong Tong, your mommy is good. Alright, great-grandfather won’t interfere and will just watch from the side. However, if someone bullies Mommy, great-grandfather will go and teach them a lesson. What do you think?”
“Not good!” Who knew that Xiao Letong would shake his head and deny it.
“Ah, why?” Elder Gong asked in puzzlement.
“I will take revenge for Mommy!” Xiao Letong suddenly said with great ambition, but then he thought of something and said sharply, “Great-grandfather, even if someone bullies Mommy, it should be father who takes revenge for her. We will only watch on the side. If... he chooses not to help mommy, hmph, then, we will ignore him for the rest of our lives.”
Old master Gong was stunned at first, then he laughed out loud, “Haha, Tong Tong is right. Your father should be there to support your mother. We’ll just watch from the side.”
With him watching, would that brat dare not to support his wife?
Xiao Lingyu was cleaning the house in the back room, but her ears were very sensitive. She didn’t miss a single word the pair of grandfather and grandson said.
The corners of her mouth twitched, but at the same time, she was very touched.
Whether it was the people she loved or the people who loved her, everyone cared about her.
Old Master Gong and Xiao Letong chatted happily in the courtyard.
Ever since Old Master Gong returned to the Taoyuan Village, he changed completely. He was no longer the stern Gong Zhen but an ordinary old man in the village.
Xiao Letong could chat with anyone, and he made his great-grandfather so happy.
Xiao Lingyu washed a plate of crystal grapes. She walked out of the house and asked with a smile, “What are you guys talking about? You’re laughing so happily.”
Xiao Letong pinched a grape and handed it to Old Master Gong. In a crisp voice, he said, “Great-grandfather, eat this. This grape is really delicious!”
“Oh, really? Then I’ll definitely have a good taste!” Old Master Gong opened his mouth, and Xiao Letong fed him. Old Master Gong grinned. “This grape is really delicious. Come, Tong Tong, eat it too!” Old Master Gong pinched a grape and brought it to Tong Tong’s lips.
Xiao Letong said very politely, “Thank you, great-grandfather!”
Xiao Lingyu, “...” She was very happy that their relationship was so good.
At this moment, Old Master Gong said, “Yu ‘Er, Tong Tong said...”
“Great-grandfather, why do you always call Mommy Yu ‘Er?” Xiao Letong asked, seemingly confused.
“Ah?” Old Master Gong was momentarily stunned. Since Xiao Lingyu’s parents called her Yu ‘Er, he also followed their example. He felt it would bring them closer together.
“...” Xiao Lingyu stroked Xiao Letong’s hair and said with a smile, “You always ask weird questions. Great-grandfather calls mommy that because it’s more intimate.”
“But how come the other great-grandfather calls mommy Girlie?” Xiao Letong asked naively.
Xiao Lingyu, “...” what kind of question was this?
“Tong Tong, that’s just habits!” Xiao Lingyu explained, “Similarly, someone might call you Tong Tong, Xiao Tong, or Tong ‘Er. It depends on what they prefer.
“No matter what, it’s a sign that they are close to you. Your great-grandfathers call me girlie or Yu ‘Er but they are both very close to me.”
Xiao Letong nodded as if he understood something. “Okay.”
However, he was complaining in his heart. ‘It’s so hard acting like an innocent child. But what else can I do?’
Xiao Lingyu looked at the time and said, “Grandpa, it’s time for lunch. Let’s go eat!”
“Okay, let’s go!”
Xiao Lingyu called out from behind, “Xiao Wang, Xiao Zhang, Master Zhao, let’s go eat!”
“Okay!” The three of them replied and came over.
But as the head chef, Master Zhao felt rather awkward.
He was Old Master Gong’s chef, but as a great chef, he went to other people’s houses to eat every day. Furthermore, he ate happily. This feeling was really hard for him to describe.
...
At night, when Xiao Lingyu was lying in bed, she lost sleep again.
She missed Gong Tianhao.
Perhaps the current Gong Tianhao would not miss her at all, but she still missed Gong Tianhao very much.
Xiao Lingyu said, “Tianhao, are you okay now? I’m coming to find you!”
...
In Country M, Weng Jingjing did not expect Gong Tianhao to return to China so soon.
She had an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Gong Tianhao was handsome, rich and powerful. It would be a lie to say that she was not interested in him.
However, she had heard a lot of rumors about Gong Tianhao.
It was said that when he was in his twenties and thirties, he did not have a single woman by his side. There were only a few men who were close to him. They said that it was because he liked men more than women.
It was said that every woman who tried to get close to him had a bad ending. Some of them even committed suicide. However, Gong Tianhao didn’t care about them.
It was said that he had erectile dysfunction, and that was why he stayed away from women to preserve his face.
It was said that he was a cold and ruthless man.
She was tempted but she didn’t dare to take any action.
When she appeared before him as his ex-girlfriend, she only shivered slightly. This showed that her mental strength had received a lot of training.
When she received the order to approach Gong Tianhao again, she found out that he had already returned to the country.
She was really shocked and scared. At the same time, she heaved a sigh of relief in her heart.
Even when the man was just lying in bed, his aura was too powerful for her to face.
Now that he was back in the country, she no longer needed to face that man who was even more terrifying than the devil.
However, she then received the order that she had to return to the country as well. She had to get close to Gong Tianhao no matter what.
“Eldest miss, Gong Tianhao’s recovery is too fast. This doesn’t make sense at all.” In a villa in the capital, a man in black told a masked woman.
A man who had just woken up from a vegetative state could walk in just a few days. That was abnormal.
The masked woman held a glass of red wine. After listening to her subordinate’s report, she picked up the glass, took a sip, and said with a smile, “This is nothing strange. From what we know, the strange doctor, Situ Xing, is one of his people. Situ Xing is the world’s top brain specialist. He has been treating and researching Gong Tianhao’s illness.”
The subordinate in black reported another matter and asked, “Miss, since Gong Tianhao has returned to the country, what about Bai Shanshan?”
The masked woman said coldly, “Arrange for her to return to the country. She must fulfill her responsibilities and complete her mission! Otherwise, hmph...”
She threw the cup in her hand away.
With a clang, pieces of the cup flew in all directions.
Bai Shanshan was just a chess piece. Her fate was naturally in the hands of the chess player.
Bai Shanshan still had value to her. Naturally, she had to bring out her greatest value.
However, once it lost its value, she would be shattered like the cup.
The black-clothed man replied, “Alright, I will immediately make the arrangements!”
