Wife and daughter died, the scumbag is celebrating the birthday of Bai Yueguang's child

Chapter 583: Returning to One’s Ancestors

ancestral hall.

The servants had already prepared offerings for ancestor worship, and when the auspicious time arrived, they would burn incense and return to their roots.

The prestigious elders of the Gong family have already taken their seats.

The butler stood in the corridor, raising and lowering his hands to indicate that the auspicious time had arrived.

Gong Yao and Ren Xiya held incense and walked forward, entering the ancestral hall step by step.

Lin Zhiyi stared at Ren Xiya, but didn't see much joy on her face.

She wanted this identity, not for anything else, just to vent her anger.

But the Gong family is sometimes like a gorgeous cage.

There are too many things that are beyond our control.

Ren Xiya and Gong Yao stood in front of the ancestral tablets, holding incense and bowing.

Just as he was about to kneel down, Lin Zhiyi discovered that there were originally three mats in the ancestral hall.

All that was left was a mat under Gong Yao's knees.

Ren Xiya could only kneel on the cold and hard tiles.

She could either stop the debate on tracing her ancestry or become a descendant who was disrespectful to her ancestors in the eyes of others.

Either you swallow your anger and bow down to Gong Yao.

This also relates to her future status in the Gong family.

Everyone thought that Ren Xiya would swallow her anger, after all, returning to her roots was her real purpose.

indeed.

Ren Xiya did the same.

She knelt down, and Gong Yao beside her looked at her with disdain.

But the next second, there was a bang.

Ren Xiya knelt heavily on the floor tiles, wishing her bones would break.

Everyone's eyes fell on her involuntarily.

She turned to look at Gong Yao and raised her eyebrows. That's it?

Then, he kowtowed three times, making her forehead red.

Then he looked at Gong Yao slowly and said, "Why don't you kowtow? You should be more respectful to your ancestors. If you are not sincere, it won't work. Be careful that your ancestors won't bless you."

Urged by everyone's gazes, Gong Yao bent down and kowtowed reluctantly.

But he didn't act as realistically as Ren Xiya, or he didn't want to act at all.

He grew up abroad and doesn't believe in such pedantic and superstitious things about ancestors.

Being willing to kneel down was already his greatest concession.

But he forgot that those sitting on both sides were respected elders who believed in this.

When Gong Yao and Ren Xiya turned around, the elders looked at their foreheads and shook their heads.

Some of them, relying on their age and seniority, snorted and refused to drink Gong Yao's tea.

"Not even as good as a woman."

Gong Yao then realized Ren Xiya's intention.

Ren Xiya smiled, leaned close to him and whispered, "The ones I really worship are these living ancestors."

"..."

Veins popped out on Gong Yao's forehead.

Ren Xiya advised: "Don't be angry, there are more things to be angry about."

"What do you mean?"

"Some things should be carefully considered."

As soon as Ren Xiya finished speaking, the Gong family security guards came running over.

"Master, Third Master, the police are here."

"what?"

The old man almost lost his balance.

In a blink of an eye, plainclothes policemen walked in.

They knew that the Gong family could not be easily offended, so they deliberately did not come in uniform.

"Old Master, Third Master, excuse me for interrupting you. A prisoner just admitted that he was bribed by Mr. Gong Yaogong to assassinate Miss Ren Xiya."

"Impossible!" Gong Yao retorted loudly, "That person clearly..."

"He was indeed released, but he voluntarily surrendered himself," the police explained.

"what?"

Gong Yao opened his eyes wide.

A killer would actually turn himself in?

It’s simply a fantasy.

The police officer said seriously: "I hope Mr. Gong can cooperate with the investigation. Please."

"No, I..."

When Gong Yao was about to refuse, the old man looked at him.

He immediately changed his tone and said, "Okay, I'm willing to cooperate."

After saying that, he followed the police away.

When she passed by Ren Xiya, she whispered, "I've said before that if you're not sincere, you'll easily offend your ancestors. Congratulations, you've just returned to your roots and you've become the first person in the Gong family to be taken away by the police."

"You did it on purpose." Gong Yao's teeth were almost broken.

"correct."

Ren Xiya admitted it directly.

The person who left the police station was indeed the killer hired by Gong Yao.

But when a killer walks out of the police station unscathed, his colleagues will naturally speculate what he has betrayed.

It's not a pleasant feeling to be chased by your colleagues as soon as you leave the police station.

It's better to be comfortable in prison.

Gong Yao was taken away.

Ren Xiya became the only person at the scene who recognized her ancestral roots. She picked up the tea and offered it to everyone one by one, and finally handed it to the old man.

"Dad, you must live a long life, and the future will be more exciting."

"you……"

"Drink tea."

Ren Xiya urged with a smile.

In order to save face, Mr. Gong could only drink tea, and he was already very angry.

After paying homage to the ancestors, you have returned to your roots.

But Mr. Gong was reluctant to mention changing Ren Xiya's surname.

Ren Xiya didn't care.

The old man stood up and said it was over, and everyone dispersed.

Suddenly, Liu He's scream was heard from the crowd.

"what!"

Lin Zhiyi just loosened his hand for a moment, and Liu He fell down the stairs.

"mom!"

She rushed forward and supported Liu He.

Liu He's face was covered in cold sweat, and she held her stomach: "It hurts, Zhiyi, help me quickly."

"well."

Lin Zhiyi tried to help Liu He up, but Liu He couldn't move and his body was heavy.

There was no way one person could lift her up all at once.

At this time, Gong Shiyan rushed over and picked up Liu He.

"Xiao He! Don't be afraid, I'll take you to the hospital right away."

"I……"

Liu He was in so much pain that she couldn't speak.

Gong Chen and Ren Xiya ran over.

"I've asked Chen Jin to drive."

Lin Zhiyi didn't have time to speak, just nodded vigorously, and accompanied Liu He to the hospital.

A pair of eyes behind them were hiding in the crowd and staring at them.

……

hospital.

Seeing Liu He being pushed in, Lin Zhiyi came to his senses and fell backwards weakly.

Gong Chen reached out to catch her and whispered, "It'll be fine."

Lin Zhiyi blamed herself and said, "I should have supported her. I only let go for a moment. I clearly saw her standing firmly. How could she fall?"

Gong Chen held her in his arms and asked softly, "Are you sure?"

She looked up, trying to get clues from his eyes.

But she couldn't learn or understand his hidden talents.

"Why do you ask?"

"You and she both cherish this child very much. If you are not mentally sure about the child's safety, neither you nor she will let go easily subconsciously." Gong Chen speculated.

"You mean..."

Before Lin Zhiyi could finish her words, Gong Shiyan went berserk.

He was about to rush out in anger, but fortunately Gong Chen was quick enough to stop him.

"Second brother, don't be impulsive."

"It must be him! Now that his beloved son is back, he will naturally clear away all obstacles!"

Gong Shiyan's fists stiffened.

Gong Chen advised: "He is not so stupid as to do it at his own home. And if Ren Xiya hadn't taken action today, it would have been Gong Yao's big day, and he would not have made any mistakes."

Ren Xiya also stood up.

"If he really wants to do it, he should do it within three months, so that it will be easier to cause a miscarriage. It's not his character to drag his feet. I think the accident with the second wife was more like a spur of the moment thing."

"A sudden impulse?" Gong Shiyan frowned. He couldn't imagine who would do such a thing.

Lin Zhiyi thought to himself, and a face flashed in his mind.

"Could it be..."
