Gong Bingye turned his head, his deep eyes filled with shrewdness.

However, everyone knew that Gong Bingyu had gone to the palace to provoke Gong Bingye.
Both Gongxia’s directors and family members heard the news.
This made those who stood on Gong Bingyu's side feel more confident. Gong Bingyu even came to provoke Gong Bingye, so you can imagine how powerful he is.
This incident was like a reassurance to them, making them stand more firmly on Gong Bingyu's side.
Gong Leng was naturally very happy when he knew about this. Not only was he happy that the plan he had been planning for so long was finally going to bear fruit, but what made him even happier was that the two brothers of the Gong family would fight each other, and then he would be able to reap the benefits.
This Gong Bingyu is much more resolute than before. It was not in vain that I spent so much time and money looking for him.

A lot of things have happened recently. The heat of Mingjie and Xia Tian teaming up to impersonate Xia Xingchen has finally cooled down a lot. Xia Tian, who has been staying at Mingjie's house, can sometimes go out shopping in disguise.
While shopping, she also heard the news that Gong Bingyu came to provoke Gong Bingye.
Hearing this, a wave of bad memories rushed into her mind like crazy, making her clench her fists.
Mingjie has been missing for so long, it's time to find the next partner.
I heard that Gong Bingyu has been coveting Xia Xingchen for a long time. I wonder if her body can satisfy Gong Bingyu.

During the time Xia Xingchen lived in Li Li's house, the injuries on his body and face were almost healed, but the scars on his face were difficult to remove.
Fortunately, Gong Bingye asked Ke Junchen to prescribe some scar removal medicine for her.
The scars on my face healed faster.
Because of Gong Bingyu's appearance, Gong Bingye was not in a hurry to take Xia Xingchen back to Gongyuan. She lived in Li Li's house, which was safer than living in Gongyuan.
After Mr. and Mrs. Li knew that the little beggar was Xia Xingchen, their attitude became much better. They even wanted to adopt Xia Xingchen as their goddaughter.
On this day, Xia Xingchen waited for Li Li to come home in the living room as usual and prepared dinner for her.
The moment Li Li entered the room, Xia Xingchen could tell that she was worried. Li Li had been in this state for more than one or two days.
Xia Xingchen pulled Li Li to sit on the chair as if nothing had happened. "It's freshly made. Eat it while it's hot."
She didn't ask any more questions. If Li Li wanted to say something, she would say it herself.
However, Li Li had no appetite for several days.
She didn't want to let Xia Xingchen down, so she forced herself to pick up the chopsticks and take a couple of bites. But as soon as the rice reached her mouth, she became so upset that she put down her chopsticks.
At this moment, she finally couldn't help but say, "Xingchen, do you know? Gong Bingyu came back some time ago."
Gong Bingye had previously told her not to let Xia Xingchen know about Gong Xia's current situation, but now, she heard the rumors outside with her own ears, saying that Gong Bingyu even dared to come and provoke Gong Bingye.
She was really worried.
Because of this incident, she has been in pain for several days and really doesn't know whether she should tell Xia Xingchen about it.
On the contrary... even if Xia Xingchen knew, besides being worried, what could she do to help?!
As soon as the words came out, it was like a blow to Li Li, and her mind became extremely clear in an instant.
She realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly covered her mouth.
Xia Xingchen was sitting next to her, and she spoke loudly. She was sure that Xia Xingchen heard her, but Xia Xingchen remained indifferent.
On second thought, what if Gong Bingyu comes back?
I guess Xingchen doesn’t know what Gong Bingyu’s return means?
Since Xingchen doesn’t know, just pretend she didn’t say anything.
Xia Xingchen asked calmly, "What happened to him coming back? Did he cause you any trouble?"
It seems that Xingchen really doesn't know how much impact Gong Bingyu's return this time will have on Gong Bingye.
Sometimes, it’s a good thing not to know, so you don’t have to worry about it.
Li Li smiled unnaturally, "No."
Xia Xingchen: "If not, let's eat first."
Li Li nodded absentmindedly. She took a bite of food and put it in her mouth, but it felt like chewing wax.
Xia Xingchen watched Li Li eat, her star-like eyes full of stories.
Li Li knew that she was of humble status, and even if she wanted to help Gong Bingye, she was unable to do so. At the moment, the only thing she could do was to take good care of Xia Xingchen.
It relieved Gong Bingye of all worries.
The next day, Li Li got up early to go to work as usual, and came back very late at night. But strangely, when she came back tonight, she did not see Xia Xingchen in the living room, and there was no dinner prepared for her by Xia Xingchen on the dining table.
At that moment, she was startled and quickly pushed open Xia Xingchen's bedroom door. The bedroom was pitch dark. With the help of the light from the living room, she saw that the quilt on the bed was open. Perhaps Xia Xingchen often stayed up late with her recently and his body couldn't take it.
Li Li finally felt relieved.
If Xia Xingchen disappeared, she didn't know how to explain to Gong Bingye.
It just so happened that she had no appetite these days, so after washing up, she went back to her bedroom to sleep.
She had a restless night, and since it was her day off, it was even harder to fall asleep. It was almost dawn when she finally fell into a drowsy sleep.
She slept for four or five hours, and when she woke up, it was already ten o'clock in the morning.
She yawned and got out of bed.
Thinking that Xia Xingchen was so tired that she fell asleep early last night, the first thing she wanted to do when she woke up was to go see Xia Xingchen.
"Xingchen." She knocked on the door sleepily.
There was no movement inside.
Li Li knocked again, "Xingchen, I'm off today, let's go shopping together."
It's just right, they both can relax.
But there was still no movement inside.
Li Li no longer felt sleepy and felt something was wrong.
She opened the door directly.
As soon as she opened the door, she was shocked to find that although the quilt on the bed was open, there was no Xia Xingchen on the bed at all.
The quilt from last night is exactly the same as the one now. Could it be that Xingchen went out last night?
Li Li was suddenly shocked. Where would she go?
She quickly took out her cell phone and called Xia Xingchen. The call went through, but no one answered.
This happened two or three times in a row.
Li Li began to panic: "What should I do? Where will Xingchen go?"
In a moment of desperation, she ran to the palace.
Gong Bingye was still not at home.
Only Ling Mei and Gong Nan were there.
When the couple saw Li Li in such a hurry, they knew it had something to do with Xia Xingchen.
Ling Mei asked: "What happened?"
Li Li panted heavily, "Hurry... tell the prince that... Xingchen... is missing..."
"What?" Ling Mei was very worried. Could it be that he was captured by Gong Bingyu's men?
"Don't worry for now, I'll call and ask the brat to come back." Gong Nan turned around and called Gong Bingye.
Gong Bingye rushed back immediately after receiving the call, "What's going on?"
