All of this was to get rid of Rong Yu without anyone knowing!
Once Rong Yu died, Rong Qingtian could find out about Jiang Yi and Jiang Zhong. He could find out that Rong Cheng had drugged the wine, but he would not know that Rong Rui was the mastermind!
Thinking of this, Gu Qingchen could not help but feel a chill down her spine!
This was a brilliant trap!
The person who set the trap was too vicious. If it were not for her ability to read minds coupled with Rong Yu’s wisdom, she might not have known who was behind the plot to harm them.
Gu Qingchen was silent for a long time before she spoke again, “Why are you so tolerant of Rong Rui’s attack on you?”
This did not seem like Rong Yu’s personality. In Gu Qingchen’s eyes, Rong Yu was definitely a good person on the surface, but deep down, she knew that he was a cold-blooded and merciless person. How could he let Rong Rui jump around in front of him for so long?
“Tolerate? Hehe…” Rong Yu smiled meaningfully. After a long while, he met Gu Qingchen’s eyes that were full of doubt. “It’s not tolerance, it’s indulgence.”
Uh…
Indulgence?
What did this mean?
Gu Qingchen could not see through Rong Yu anymore. She simply could not read Rong Yu’s mind. Every time she read Rong Yu’s mind, Rong Yu could always blank out his mind. He was a person who did not have anything in his mind. How could she read Rong Yu’s mind?
“Did you deliberately let Rong Rui do this?”
Although she could not read Rong Yu’s mind, she could distinguish between tolerance and indulgence.
In other words, Rong Yu had known Rong Rui’s little plan long ago. Not only did he not stop Rong Rui, but he also helped Rong Rui to do this.
The thoughts of rich people were too fascinating, not everyone could understand.
“That’s right.” Rong Yu said softly and did not deny it. He admitted it directly.
“Why?” Gu Qingchen was very curious. Although it was not good to ask about his family’s private matters, she still asked out of curiosity.
Rong Yu did not feel that there was anything that he could not say. There was a hint of laziness in his eyes and his tone was casual. He smiled slightly and said, “Because I’m bored.”
Pfft!
Gu Qingchen was dumbfounded. She stared at Rong Yu with her mouth agape and did not say a word for a long time.
Because… bored?
This reason was really… uh, too domineering!
Seeing Gu Qingchen’s defeated expression, Rong Yu’s smile had a rare hint of gentleness. “Do you think it’s unbelievable?”
Gu Qingchen nodded subconsciously. She indeed felt that this reason was too far-fetched and was not something that normal people could understand.
Rong Yu said patiently, “The Rong Group is a business kingdom built by my grandfather. However, there are no suitable candidates from the Rong family to run this kingdom.”
Gu Qingchen felt that what Rong Yu was going to say next could be said to be an internal matter of the Rong family. Was it really good for her to pry into the internal relations of the Rong Family?
However, she did not quite agree with Rong Yu’s words. “I’m not sure how many people there are in the Rong family in your generation, but I think that other than you, there should be no other suitable candidate.”
Rong Yu had shrewdness and wisdom in his bones. For example, at the Jade Convention, Gu Qingchen would never have thought that Rong Yu was also in the jade industry. However, she reckoned that many people saw Rong Yu as the most brilliant Young Master Rong in the Rong and the Rong Group, but they did not know Rong Yu personally.
However, the Rong Yu that Gu Qingchen saw had removed the outer clothing of the young master of the Rong Group. The Rong Yu inside was definitely not inferior to the young master of Rong Group.
This person was really good at hiding his true self.
However, Rong Yu shook his head. There was a hint of a wry smile on his lips. “I’m the most unsuitable candidate. As my personal physician, I’m sure you’re aware of this as well.”
Rong Yu seemed to be indifferent to death. However, for some reason, Gu Qingchen’s heart froze when she heard Rong Yu’s words. A sour feeling swept through her entire body. It was a very uncomfortable feeling, her heart felt sour as if it was being pulled by something.
That’s right, Rong Yu was right. Although he was wise and decisive, he did not have a good body. He might not be long in this world.
Gu Qingchen quickly shook her head to get rid of the thoughts in her mind. However, she did not notice the glint in Rong Yu’s eyes.
“I will work hard to find the cause of your illness and find a cure!”
Rong Yu was such an outstanding person that everyone hated him. He should not have a short life. She must find a way to treat Rong Yu.
When she knew that Rong Yu did not have a long life, she only felt that it was a pity. However, when she mentioned this matter again today, she realized that she could not accept this fact.
She had known this fact before. Why couldn’t she accept it today?
“Well, I’ll have to trouble you then, Doctor Gu.”
Rong Yu smiled with a smile of success. He was so fast that Gu Qingchen could not see him clearly.
“Then continue.”
Since her interest was piqued by Rong Yu, she also wanted to know why Rong Yu did this.
Rong Yu nodded and leaned against the big rock behind him. The dogwood on his chest flashed with a fatal temptation. Gu Qingchen had no choice but to look away and try not to look at Rong Yu’s chest.
“Among the few brothers of the Rong family, you’ve seen Rong Cheng. He’s impulsive and brainless. He listens to his mother a lot of times. The Rong family doesn’t lack Empress Dowager Cixi. What they need is not a reign behind a curtain. Therefore, Rong Cheng is not a suitable candidate.”
Gu Qingchen had seen Rong Cheng before. She knew that Rong Yu was telling the truth, so she nodded in agreement.
“Besides Rong Cheng, Rong Qingtian also has a son and a daughter. They are the children of Rong Qingtian’s second wife. However, this marriage did not last long. After the second wife gave birth to a pair of twins, she divorced him. This pair of children was also raised by her. Since they were not by Rong Qingtian’s side since they were young, Rong Qingtian would not be at ease to hand over the Rong group to them.”
Gu Qingchen sat there quietly and listened to Rong Yu’s analysis. In her heart, she only felt that Rong Qingtian was too lecherous!
Rong Qingtian had married wives one after another, each younger than the other!
“Rong Qingtian also has a few brothers and sisters. Rong Rui is my second uncle, also the son of Rong Qingtian’s second brother. Among these cousins, only Rong Rui has the greatest ambition. Relatively speaking, he also has some experience in the business. The others don’t even dare to kill me and rob the Rong Group, so how can they run the Rong Group?”
Uh…
Gu Qingchen was a little dumbfounded. However, she had to admit that Rong Yu had his reasons. It was not an easy thing to do business, especially to run a top-tier Rong Group.
“In other words, you connived at Rong Rui because you want to train him in disguise?”
Thinking of this, Gu Qingchen could not help but be shocked. She thought that Rong Rui was a thoughtful person, but she did not expect that Rong Rui not only knew all of Rong Rui’s little thoughts but also used his method to cultivate Rong Rui!
Oh my god!
What kind of magnanimity is this?
