Gong Ming sat in the private room of Cold Night Cafe, lazily stirring his spoon as he sized up the woman sitting opposite him with slight disdain.

Her hair was tied into a ponytail, and she looked pure and innocent. However, the dark circles under her eyes and her slightly rough cheeks indicated that she was not having a good time.

Gong Ming lightly snorted, “Xu Rou?”

“Yes.” Xu Rou nodded and nervously pinched the corner of her shirt.

She was Gong Hao’s high school deskmate. Once Gong Hao had brought her breakfast for a week. One had to know that at that time, Gong Hao had ignored all the other girls. It looked like she was Gong Hao’s first love, but he kept it buried deep in his heart and did not reveal it.

At this thought, Gong Ming raised his eyebrows and looked at her with disdain.

“I heard that your family is not having a good life. Your business went bankrupt. However, I’m a good person. I can give you a shot at improving your life.”

“This card here has been pre-loaded with five million dollars. It’s up to you if you want to become rich overnight.”

Xu Rou immediately grabbed the card and looked at him expectantly.

“Second Master, I’ll do anything you ask.”

“That’s good.” Gong Ming proudly raised his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes, “I want you to sacrifice yourself to Gong Hao. If you succeed, I’ll give your family another project to revive Xu Corp.”

Xu Rou’s eyes lit up as she nodded heavily.

Gong Ming coldly smiled as he watched her leave with the card.

“Fu Xi, I’m going to stab this knife into your heart. If you can still let this go, I’ll give it to you.”

At the entrance of the villa, Fu Xi got into the car with Gong Hao. They had a routine trip to the hospital for a systematic checkup.

Fu Xi was serious in showing to the world that his leg was getting healed

Only when they completely fell into character would Gong You and Gong Ming be convinced.

When they reached the consultation room, Fu Xi patted Gong Hao’s shoulder.

“Ah Hao, I’ll go to the pharmacy to get your medicine.”

Gong Hao agreed and quietly let the doctor take a look at him. After the doctor did a cursory check, he smiled at him. “Master, please wait a moment. I’ll go to the department to get the scans.”

“Alright.” Gong Hao nodded calmly.

This was a CT scan of his leg and the doctor would save a copy of it each time.

The moment the doctor left, the door of the consultation room was pushed open. Gong Hao thought it was Fu Xi and turned around with a smile.

“You’re back so quickly?”

But when he saw who it was, he frowned in surprise.

It wasn’t Fu Xi, it was Xu Rou.

Xu Rou was dressed in a nurse’s uniform. She walked to his side and squatted down, hugging his knees.

“Hao, it was hard to look for you.”

Tears welled up in Xu Rou’s eyes. As she moved, the front of her shirt opened, revealing her cleavage.

Gong Hao turned his head away without looking at her.

“Don’t touch me.”

There was not a hint of lust in his eyes as he pushed her hand away.

Xu Rou faltered before grabbing Gong Hao’s hand and pressing it against her face while crying.

“Hao, please help me. My family is bankrupt. My parents forced me to marry a fool just to save a business. I’ve really been forced into a corner. Only you can save me.” Xu Rou said as she tried to get up to hug Gong Hao and squeeze her breasts into his hands.

“Let go.”

Gong Hao’s face turned completely dark as he loudly berated her. He forcefully pushed her to the ground, his eyes filled with disdain and coldness.

“What do your family’s misfortunes have to do with me? Don’t touch me!”

Xu Rou sat on the ground in a daze, tears streaming down her face.

“Hao, don’t you like me anymore?”

“No, I’ve never liked you.”

Gong Hao’s gaze was cold as he manually backed the wheelchair away from her.

“Don’t think too highly of yourself. You and I are just ordinary high school classmates..”
