?Chapter 246: Chapter 245 This is just the beginning Chapter 246: Chapter 245 This is just the beginning A farce ended with Old Man Gou fainting from anger.
Upon seeing Old Man Gou faint, Luo Ning felt he deserved it.
In her previous life, although Old Man Gou had wanted to acknowledge her mother and let his younger brother inherit the Gou Group, he was always hesitant after being influenced by pillow talk.
He even explicitly stated that he would forgive them only if her mother came back with them to admit their mistakes.
He really thought too highly of himself, assuming her mother and younger brother were desperate for the Gou Family and wanted to take advantage of them.
Such a disrespectful old fool, not to mention just fainting; even if he had died, he would have deserved it.
Luo Ning presented an apologetic facade.
“Ah, I didn’t mean to reveal everything; I didn’t expect the old man to have such poor psychological endurance.”
Lu Xun added, “After all, having that kind of relationship with his stepdaughter isn’t something glorious. He probably fainted from humiliation after everyone found out.”
For once, Ji Jiayi and Lu Xun were on the same side, chiming in, “Exactly, with such dirty laundry aired, how could he face everyone? Even if he didn’t feel like fainting, he’d pretend to.”
Ji Jiayi wasn’t even sure if what Luo Ning said was true, but it sure looked plausible.
Regardless of its truth, today they had to make sure the accusations stuck.
At this moment, Zhenmei was furiously struggling, trying to rush over and attack Luo Ning.
Seeing her like this, along with the confessions she had just made, Feng Yanbai looked extremely grim.
It was the first time he had been so embarrassed.
This shrew really was no good; he had no idea why he had been blinded by her in the beginning.
He coldly addressed Bao Baoyu, who was checking on Old Man Gou, “Take Zhenmei back to the Gou Family; the Feng Family cannot afford such a daughter-in-law.”
Without waiting for Bao Baoyu to respond, he quickly left the scene.
He knew that regardless of whether his wife and Old Man Gou had had an affair, the stain was there.
After today, both their families would become the joke of their circle.
He would file for divorce as soon as he got back; he could not afford such a disgraceful woman.
Right, he needed to get a paternity test done again.
Bao Baoyu didn’t expect her son-in-law to be so ruthless; he actually believed that bitch’s words and just walked out on her daughter like that.
How would that look to everyone else? Wouldn’t it make them believe the rumors even more?
It infuriated her, really infuriated her.
At that moment, Feng Yuxiao had also brought Feng Yuhao over.
Seeing so many people gathered, they only then realized that the old man had fainted.
Feng Yuxiao immediately stepped forward concernedly and asked, “Grandma, what happened to grandpa?”
Feng Yuhao felt very embarrassed with so many onlookers, and he stood a bit far away without speaking.
Suddenly someone in the back said, “Why call him grandpa? Shouldn’t you be calling him dad?”
“So concerned; she might really be a bastard daughter.”
“What bastard daughter, more like a child born from an affair.”
The rich wives despise women like Zhenmei, who had snatched her stepsister’s fiancé before; how was that different from being a mistress?
What was even more disgusting was that she didn’t spare her stepfather and even hired someone to kill her own daughter; it was repulsive to watch.
This Feng Yuxiao, who had previously seemed decent, now upon closer inspection, seemed no different from her mother.
They had heard that her current wealthy boyfriend originally belonged to her best friend.
Like mother, like daughter, both rotten to the core.
This Bao Baoyu was also cunning. As a widow, she brought her child into a rich family and had her daughter offer herself to her husband, drove away her stepdaughter, and even wished her dead.
It was clear that she was after the Gou family’s fortune.
Before, she pretended to be virtuous and acted as a good stepmother to outsiders, but who didn’t know the filth inside.
If she was really good, would her stepdaughter suddenly leave the Imperial Capital for so many years?
Feeling everyone’s strange and disgusted looks, Bao Baoyu, who cared most about face, couldn’t stand it.
She immediately called Feng Yuhao over, “Come quickly and take your grandfather to the hospital.”
Feng Yuxiao was completely baffled, she had no idea what had happened, what were these people talking about, biological father? Illicit daughter?
She wanted to ask, but seeing her grandmother’s dark and gloomy face, she held back.
Intuition told her that it definitely wasn’t anything good.
So she asked her brother to come over, and together they helped Old Man Gou up and left the place.
After the few of them left, the crowd discussed even more zestfully, everyone saying they didn’t expect the Gou Family to be harboring such filth.
Once today passed, the affair between Old Man Gou and his daughter Gou Zhenmei being intimate would no longer be a secret in the circle.
Luo Ning was very satisfied with this outcome.
She had once been slandered all over the internet, and Gou Zhenmei and her mother had also participated.
At that time, she was smeared with various dirty accusations and couldn’t clarify at all.
Such tactics were what these three women and Bo Xiangxiang liked to use most, and today she let these three women taste this bitter fruit first.
She said to Lu Xun and others, “Let’s go, we’ll attend the auction first.”
Lu Xun, understanding Luo Ning well, guessed that her earlier words were probably deliberately nonsensical.
But what of it? Who made the women of the Gou Family provoke them first? This was just the beginning.
“Right, let’s not miss the auction over such lowly people.”
Thus, a group went downstairs to attend the auction.
After hearing the gossip and devouring such juicy details, others also went downstairs.
The auction hall downstairs was large and already filled with many people.
Upon entering, those who heard the gossip couldn’t help but share the juicy details of the drama that unfolded upstairs.
Although the Gou Family and Feng Family weren’t considered true top-tier elites in Imperial Capital, they were still significant, each possessing a publicly listed company.
Some people here did business with both families.
After finishing the gossip, everyone felt like they had devoured some juicy melon.
They really didn’t expect Old Man Gou, who appeared so upright, to be so wildly sneaky behind the scenes, truly a degenerate!
And that stepdaughter, who usually appeared like a proper lady from a wealthy family, turned out to be so promiscuous privately.
But, if she could seduce and steal her stepsister’s fiancé, hooking up with her stepfather seemed not entirely impossible.
The discussions were fervent until the auction began and then quieted down.
Luo Ning decided to stoke the flames further when she got back by posting intimate photos of Old Man Gou and the stepdaughter online, letting this father-daughter pair catch fire once more.
She had just learned from her mother the day before that her mother had hired a private detective, who had been tracking Gou Zhenmei and her mother for many years.
The private detective had many photos of Gou Zhenmei, naturally including ones where she was arm-in-arm with Old Man Gou at events, leaning close to talk.
If it weren’t for the dirt thrown today, people might not have thought much seeing the photos.
But after seeing the photos now, people would naturally imagine things, feeling that the behavior of this pseudo father-daughter pair was indeed too intimate.
Public opinion isn’t something others can’t manipulate; if Bao Baoyu and her group could play, she could too.
Old Man Gou had bullied her mother so much, she would make him tarnish his later years and let him see the true faces of Bao Baoyu and her group, regretting it for life.
Also, because of this, Luo Ning felt very good during the upcoming auction.
She had earned quite a bit of money previously by looking at Feng Shui and selling talismans, and today, her mother had also given her a card.
Thus, Luo Ning successfully bid on the thousand-year-old coral tree, which was of great benefit to her brother’s physique.
