Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 465: 465: The remedy for heartache

However, those who are keen can directly understand the meaning behind his words.

Over twenty years ago, the tragic event that occurred at Xinyuan remains vividly in their minds.

Even recalling it now, many people still feel a lingering fear.

This is something that many members of influential families dare not forget, nor can they.

...

Ouyang Ya focused on Gong Chenli on the stage, wishing he could pierce a hole through him, constantly wondering what exactly he intended to do.

Gong Chenli has always been a difficult person to control, even for the Ouyang Family, who find it hard to fathom his thoughts.

However, even so, Ouyang Ya understands that he cannot let things continue as they are.

They cannot gamble on the unknown; they cannot afford the risk!

”Mr. Gong, rare as it is for you to be in high spirits, let’s not talk about such somber things! What happened at Xinyuan is all in the past and has nothing to do with the present.”

Ouyang Ya’s words undoubtedly serve as a reminder.

It is also a warning to Gong Chenli to discern what is light and what is heavy.

Do not suffer a great loss for the sake of a small gain!

The abrupt voice resonated throughout the entire hall, enough for everyone to hear clearly.

Numerous members of prominent families instantly became spectators, having no more interest in eating, drinking, or playing, but eagerly anticipating this drama.

The young master of the Ouyang Family, against the overlord of the black market.

This is certainly a rare spectacle.

Members within the influential families harbored their own thoughts, displaying peculiar expressions.

All gazes were focused on Gong Chenli on the stage, awaiting his response.

”Is it really unrelated?” Gong Chenli leisurely swiveled his gaze, shifting the focus to where Li Yan stood beside him.

The man, possessing a unique noble demeanor, with extraordinary grace and handsome poise, captured all eyes.

Merely standing there, he exerted a strong sense of pressure on those around him.

”Over twenty years ago, Xinyuan was in turmoil! At that time, the old gentleman fell ill because of this incident and hasn’t recovered to this day.”

”Today, after so many years, I have finally found the cure for the old gentleman’s ailment. Isn’t this something to be celebrated?”

As his words landed, the originally bustling hall fell into a dead silence.

No one understood what happened...

They could only rely on instinct to comprehend Gong Chenli’s words!

An ailment of the mind?

A cure...

What does it really mean...

The younger family members did not understand what Gong Chenli was talking about and were filled with doubt, but those slightly older, who had experienced the catastrophe back then, knew the true reason behind the event.

Yet, at this moment.

Gong Chenli dared to bring up this old matter again.

Moreover, he spoke in such an assertive tone...

Some people’s eyes fell once more on Li Yan, all with an intriguing demeanor...

...

How dare he!

Ouyang Ya clenched his fists tightly.

The power within him was completely uncontrollable, the violence surged through him, dominating his entire being―――

”Mr. Gong! You can eat random things and do reckless things, but you mustn’t speak carelessly!”

”The old gentleman’s health has just stabilized! Resting is the most important thing! Using medicine rashly, not only fritters away resources but might also harm the old gentleman’s mental and physical health!”

”Our Ouyang Family has protected the old gentleman for half his life! We will surely not allow such a thing to happen.”

Ouyang Ya said these words with heartfelt sincerity, ostensibly loyal to the old gentleman, but in reality, desperately trying to stop Gong Chenli’s actions.

And behind the scenes, he wasn’t as loyal as he claimed to be...

The Ouyang Family may have been the old gentleman’s former subordinates, but they had long since become a thoroughly rebellious force.

Precisely because of this, the Ouyang Family was the first step for Gong Chenli and his group to eliminate.
