Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 353 His kidneys are really good.
Gong Jinyuan looked surprised and followed the hand holding the handkerchief upwards, immediately meeting the face of the person whose face was completely covered by a mask and a black baseball cap.

His attire was truly bizarre, especially the handkerchief he was handing over. He looked exactly like a shady character from a TV drama, sneaking around trying to drug someone and take advantage of women and children.

Most people would have screamed for help in this situation, but Gong Jinyuan raised an eyebrow, finding the man's attire quite familiar.

"You are... the waiter who helped me at the Li family's house before?"

The suspicious person, Du Hexuan, who rushed over after receiving the news but was still a step behind others, and who was fully armed before entering the hospital, afraid of being recognized and having rumors spread, was shocked to hear this.

No, putting aside last time, even today he was all wrapped up like this, yet he was still recognized. Is this woman's eye a ruler?

Perhaps the surprise in Du Hexuan's eyes was too obvious, Gong Jinyuan pointed to his eyes under the brim of his hat and said with a faint smile, "Your eyes are very beautiful, the kind of beauty that people don't easily forget after seeing them once."

Du Hexuan was stunned again. As a big star known to young and old alike, he was never short of people praising his good looks, but it seemed that no one could identify him just by looking at his eyes.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Gong Jinyuan glanced at the handkerchief he offered and tentatively asked, "You saw what happened outside just now."

Du Hexuan nodded.

"Are you... pitying me now?"

Sympathy? Du Hexuan didn't consider himself a philanthropist overflowing with compassion.

"I just feel..."

"what?"

"Before loving someone else, it's best to learn to love yourself first. Family members don't necessarily have to be related by blood to be family. On the contrary, some people, even if they are related by blood, don't deserve to have family."

Gong Jinyuan seemed surprised that someone she had only met twice would say such a thing to her. She pursed her lips and remained silent for a long time.

Du Hexuan couldn't wait any longer. He shoved the handkerchief into Gong Jinyuan's hand, said, "Think about it carefully yourself," and prepared to leave.

Gong Jinyuan snapped out of her daze and quickly turned to call out to the other person, "Sir, what is your name?"

Du Hexuan dared not reveal his identity to her at this time and place, and when he heard her ask this question, he ran even faster.

Gong Jinyuan: "...Is this person born in the Year of the Rabbit? They hop so fast."

After venting his frustrations, he glanced down at the handkerchief in his palm. Thinking of the handkerchief he had carefully kept at home, a sense of determination to win crept into his eyes.

As I was thinking about something, my phone rang in my pocket. I took it out and saw that, as expected, it was someone calling.

As soon as the call connected, a familiar, sharp voice pierced my ears.

"Where have you been? Hurry up and come back to take care of your brother."

"I'll be right back." After saying this, Gong Jinyuan hung up the phone, looked down at the handkerchief in her palm, and carefully wiped the water off her face, revealing her face hidden under her overly long hair.

A few minutes later, after confirming that her face was completely dry and her eyes were no longer red, Gong Jinyuan carefully folded and put away the handkerchief, then left the place and went upstairs.

Du Anrao was unaware of the little incident at the hospital. After she and Li Yuesheng left the hospital and met up with their families, she got into Xi Jingyue's car with Li Yuesheng, despite their disapproving looks.

As soon as they got into the car, Xi Jingyue couldn't wait to ask, "What exactly happened? How did you manage to hit someone in the underground parking garage? How is the person who was hit? Did they give you any trouble?"

Du Anrao, without suspecting anything, truthfully said, "Yuesheng and I were so bored at home this afternoon that we decided to go to my cousin's agency to kill time. Unexpectedly, after we finished visiting the company, when we were driving home, someone suddenly rushed out of the parking lot. Yuesheng was startled and accidentally stepped on the brake instead of the accelerator, which hit the person."

"???" Xi Jingyue was full of questions: "Li Yuesheng, did you step on the accelerator instead of the brake?"

Li Yuesheng's fear of this cousin was far less than that of her brother. When he asked her this question, she simply nodded calmly and confidently: "Yes, he suddenly jumped out and I was startled. I tried to step on the brake, but I accidentally stepped on the accelerator instead."

"..." How can I not believe that?

"Is he alright? Did he cause you any trouble at the hospital?"

"Fortunately, his life is not in danger, but he has a broken leg. He will recover after two or three months of rest."

"...Judging from your tone, you seem quite disappointed."

"How could that be? Cousin, I'm a model citizen who loves my country, abides by the law, is polite and honest. How could I joke about other people's suffering?"

Xi Jingyue: "..."

Du Anrao glanced at one and then at the other, sensing that the atmosphere between the two was a bit off. He coughed lightly and tried to smooth things over, saying, "He's fine, he'll recover with rest. Sister Yuesheng has also discussed the follow-up compensation with their family, and everything is reasonable and legal. It's just that his family probably felt they had some influence and were distressed that their child was in the hospital, so their tone was a bit harsh when we first arrived. Fortunately, the discussion went well in the end, and it was resolved satisfactorily."

Du Anrao's words were somewhat evasive, but Xi Jingyue thought of the Gong family he had just seen at the hospital. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked knowingly, "Does your family have some influence? Do you know whose family they are?"

"Their family name is Gong, the Gong of palace."

"Gong? The Gong family that started out in supermarkets?"

"Yes, Mr. Xi knows about their family?"

"I know a bit about them; some of their smaller companies have partnerships with them."

Here it comes: Mr. Xi's ubiquitous investments and ubiquitous partners.

Xi Jingyue: "..."

Li Yuesheng: Pfft...

"Ahem, their family situation is a bit complicated. Which member of their family did you hit?"

"That guy's name is Gong Haoming."

“Gong Haoming…” Xi Jingyue frowned. “That should be the grandson of Old Master Gong’s first wife.”

"The original wife?" Li Yuesheng raised an eyebrow, showing some interest in the term.

"Yes, when he was young, Old Master Gong was quite a prominent figure, and also a womanizer. Apart from his first wife, he married eight more wives in succession. That means he was married nine times in total, and had nine different wives. This doesn't even include the women he kept outside without any official status."

Li Yuesheng: "...His kidneys are really strong."

"It's really quite good. According to some people, his nine wives and other women have given him a total of forty-nine children. If it weren't for a little accident, there might have been even more."

"What little accident?"

"Rumor has it that his last mistress wanted to use a child to advance her career, so after giving birth to his youngest son, she gave him a sterilization drug to cut off his fertility and prevent future trouble."

"what?!"
