“The wealthy circle is really messed up.” Rong Qing exclaimed sincerely from the bottom of his heart.
Gao Jiaxuan paused in the middle of picking up another piece of beef stomach and looked at Rong Qing with a strange expression.
Is this guy for real? The wealthy circle is really messed up? Aren’t we in the same circle???
Recognizing something through Gao Jiaxuan’s expression, Rong Qing righteously proclaimed: “We don’t count as the same circle. I’m also not in the same circle as your dad.”
He was a proper, young bachelor! He was definitely not the same as the dumb old man Gao who didn’t even know he was raising other people’s kids all these years!
“…… alright.” Gao Jiaxuan scooped up another beef stomach. After giving a compromising word half heartedly, what else can he say?
Was he supposed to disagree? Was the beef stomach not tasty? He wasn’t stupid. Ze.
Between stuffing himself with beef stomachs and pissing off someone like Rong Qing, which one should he choose? Wasn’t it obvious?
Rong Qing rubbed his chin: “Speaking of which, I’m kind of curious. How did old man Gao react after learning that all these kids weren’t his?” Raising kids for other people all these years, for the old man to still be alive right now, he really could be considered strong.
“How else can he be?” Gao Jiaxuan laughed coldly and then dumped the rest of the beef stomachs into the hotpot: “The only son he has left is me. It’s not like he can give all of his business and all his hard work to some other family’s kids? The old man practically hoped to shower me with all of his affections, terrified that I’d run away, terrified that there’d be no one to inherit the family business, and terrified that no one would provide for him when he’s retired. But he completely forgot that we already broke off all relations.”
The old man’s been offering him all sorts of things, but Gao Jiaxuan no longer cherished the gesture. Those were things that he could obtain by just moving a finger, why should he get involved with the old man anymore?
“Ze ze ze.” Rong Qing couldn’t resist sighing.
Old man Gao was really… Scheming all his life, but in the end, he got nothing.
Pondering for a while, Rong Qing suddenly used a strange expression to look at Gao Jiaxuan: “By the way, are you……?”
Speaking logically, old man Gao was infertile! Didn’t that mean that it’s likely Gao Jiaxuan was also…… ?
Gao Jiaxuan looked down: “I didn’t check myself. The old man and I already broke off all relations anyway. Does it matter if I am or not at this point?” He and old man Gao already were unrelated.
“You’ve grown!” Rong Qing gave him a big thumbs up.
Very nice, pal! You’re really enlightened!
Gao Jiaxuan lightly huffed.
If he hadn’t grown, wouldn’t he have been pissed off to death by Rong Qing long ago? This was where he and his old man differed. The old man collapsed in fury immediately after learning what happened, so narrow minded and inflexible.
As he thought this, Gao Jiaxuan scooped up the last of the beef stomach.
“??? Can I just say, have you been stealing my beef stomach all this time?” Rong Qing froze for a second, then abruptly stood up to fight for the last slice of beef stomach in Gao Jiaxuan’s hand.

This guy! Was actually pilfering food while he was busy listening!

“Right back at you! It’s fine if you ate half, but eating it all is too much! Give me back my beef stomach!” Rong Qing let out a beastly yell and tackled Gao Jiaxuan.
Gao Jiaxuan cursed inside. Yours!? You’re actually really coming over to fight for it? Is this necessary?
The two childish kids ended up getting into a scuffle in the private room over some beef stomach. The scene was juvenile to the extreme. The private chef stood outside deliberating for quite a while before deciding to come back later.
As for what was going on inside?
A good private chef knew when to temporarily go deaf. Which was right now.
Walking out after eating his fill, Gao Jiaxuan’s face had an odd expression of satisfaction.
To be able to snatch 90% of the beef stomach from Rong Qing, he was content! This can also be counted as winning over Rong Qing for once! Finally, he gained a slight advantage over Rong Qing!
Saying goodbye to Rong Qing, Gao Jiaxuan sat in his new car. He started the car and drove to a private hospital.
In a single bed room, an old man with white hair laid on the hospital bed. The wrinkles on his face seemed to have appeared overnight. If it weren’t for the fact that the beautiful woman guarding his side seemed familiar to Gao Jiaxuan, he really wouldn’t have been able to recognize this was old man Gao.
“You’re here.” Wiping down old man Gao, the woman next to the bedside turned her head to look at Gao Jiaxuan.
“You actually didn’t leave.” Gao Jiaxuan walked closer and stopped a meter away from the end of the bed. He looked at this woman. This was the old man’s first mistress. It was also the woman back then who first thought of ‘borrowing’ a child.
“I’ll be leaving soon.” The woman elegantly fixed her hair. She turned her head to look at the man on the bed and suddenly chuckled lightly: “I served him a total of twenty years. Who would have thought in the end, there’d be a day when I can see him this useless. If I didn’t come see him like this, I’d feel quite regretful.”
“Are you sure you’re only here to take a look?” Gao Jiaxuan’s eyes flitted towards the towel in her hands.
The woman looked down and threw the towel away: “How should I say it. Consider it a thanks for helping me raise my child. Now that he’s fallen, the fiend in my house finally became smarter. Lately, he’s even learned to show filial respect to me, and is finally taking his studies seriously.”
She looked at Gao Jiaxuan: “Although he’s not as outstanding as you, if he can find a steady job after graduating, I can be content. After living a few days as a normal woman, I discovered that it’s actually much more comfortable than following this old guy. I actually have to thank you for making him like this”
“The person who made him like this wasn’t me. It was you. It was all of you.” Gao Jiaxuan’s expression was cold.
From the beginning to the end, he was only fighting for what he desired.
Retaliating against the old man? He never had this person in his heart at all. So revenge wasn’t important here.
The woman was stunned for a moment. Her expression was somewhat embarrassed and awkward.
However, it was only a moment.
She replied calmly: “You’re right. If it weren’t for us, he wouldn’t have become like this. I just never imagined that you’d be able to find out.”
But what did that matter. Her relationship with the guy wasn’t husband and wife. It was only a monetary sexual relationship that’s all. There was never any trust between the two of them from the start.
She sat for a while and then stood up.
At this time, Gao Jiaxuan finally noticed that she was dressed far more simpler than before.
Perhaps it’s because old man Gao was willing to spend money on her all this time, she took very good care of herself. Even now she looked about 30 years old, only the thin wrinkles at the corner of her eyes betrayed her true age.
The priceless accessories and clothes that she usually wore were gone, but regular clothes and jewelry still couldn’t conceal her good looks. No wonder old man Gao would pamper her all these years.
“I should go.” The woman picked up a sun umbrella placed to the side. She turned her head to look at Gao Jiaxuan: “I really never imagined that you’d be able to pull him down. You’re actually… more capable than I imagined.”
Gao Jiaxuan stuffed his hands into his pants pockets: “I’m not that capable. I’m just more adaptable than the old man. And not so arrogant, that’s all.”
“…… You’re correct. You and him aren’t alike at all. You’re more… like your mother.” The woman’s gaze momentarily dazed off.
“…..I advise you, watch your words.” Gao Jiaxuan’s expression turned cold: “The reason I didn’t touch you guys was because I was too lazy to deal with you guys. If someone wants to recklessly play hard and provoke me, I can promise, the rest of your lives will be just as tragic as this old man.”
He didn’t touch the old man’s mistresses and their kids because they were no threat to him at all. He didn’t want to live his life in revenge and hate.
Was spending his life happily everyday like Rong Qing not good? Was spending money not well? Was playing games not fun?
He only wanted to be like Rong Qing and enjoy the wonderful life that belonged to him. However, this didn’t mean that he was a soft egg who didn’t know how to do anything.
The woman was stunned for a moment, frozen stiff by his intimidating aura, and trembled somewhat: “I misspoke. I’m sorry. I… I should go. I probably won’t come back again in the future. So… goodbye forever.”
She picked up the sun umbrella and hurried away from the hospital room in her not so tall, high heels. The hospital room returned to its empty silence.
Gao Jiaxuan listened to the sound of high heels gradually dissipate and slowly walked in front of the hospital bed. He took a hard look at the old man on the bed.
Even sleeping, this damned old man was the same as before, still looking so insufferably arrogant. But now, Gao Jiaxuan no longer had to be concerned about this old man.
Thinking this, Gao Jiaxuan gradually revealed a strange smile. Slowly, he pulled out his phone.
One minute later, Gao Jiaxuan poked at Rong Qing.
[Get rid of the mute for a second.]
Rong Qing: [? You guys are still muted?]
Daddy completely forgot about this!
[The platoon of heartless, money making machines.]
[The group administrator removed the mute from all members.]

……
The glorious tyrant Rong: [?????? Gao Jiaxuan, are you okay? Are you crazy?]
The weepy little CEO Gao: [? No. I just want you guys all to appreciate the old man’s suave appearance. Come, I still have a lot of pictures.]
The weepy little CEO Gao: [Image] [Image] [Image] [Image] [Image]
The glorious tyrant Rong: […… Send it slower, let me save them.]
The miserable prince Song: [……? The mute has been removed??? What pictures, let me see?]
……
The miserable prince Song: [I… I’m going to save them too?]
The weepy little CEO Gao: [Go ahead! Save them all you want!]
Gao Jiaxuan looked at the pictures he sent in the group chat, revealing a strange but satisfied smile.
Look. To get revenge on the old man. Isn’t this way much simpler and much more delightful? Hehehehehehehe~
While Rong Qing was busy saving the ugly pictures that Gao Jiaxuan was uploading, he also changed Gao Jiaxuan’s nickname.
>>The weepy little CEO Gao<< was changed by the group administrator into >>The crazy deranged new CEO Gao<<
The crazy insane new CEO Gao: […… I thank you sincerely.]
Gao Jiaxuan looked at his nickname in the group chat. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly laughed.
Forget it. What’s so bad about being as crazy and deranged as Rong Qing? At least his life was carefree and happy, wasn’t that very good?
So……
He looked at the old man who he had braided a pigtail on, and rubbed his chin.
Why not give him two pigtails, along with two ribbons and two buns as well?
PFFT— I was wondering why Rong Qing would want to save photos of old-half-dead men, but it turns out that was the reason!
Hahahahahaha
I wanna see the pictures too!
Thank You for the chapter ♡(ӦｖӦ｡)
Fccc, why I remembered novel named “cultivators chat group” or smth like this? That moment reminded me mc helping a girl to take pictures of daos (looks like young and very beautiful, but IS very powerful and pretty old) with weird hairstyles.
(Even if it isn’t bl novel, i still kinda like it because of comments in their group chat…)
haha 🤣🤣
