In the tavern.

When Gong Jie took out the aged dry red wine from his collection, Alice was

inevitably flattered.

I see that youve had this for a long time. But now you can bear to part with it?

Gong Jie smiled and filled her gla.s.s. Alice returned his smile briefly and took a

sip of the wine.

You didnt rush back just to have a drink with me, did you? Alice teased,

Could it be that youre back because you miss me?

Gong Jie was used to her teasing, however, right now, he was less interested in

bantering with her. He said bluntly, I came back because theres a matter I

wish to have some answers to.

Alright. Ask away. Ill answer whatever questions you have.

As Alice spoke, she pursed her lips against the rim of her gla.s.s and eyed him

intently.

Gong lie went straight to the point. A while ago, you disappeared for a long

time. No one knows where you went.

Alice held the wine gla.s.s and stared, as one transfixed.

Gong Jie looked into her eyes intently and said with deliberation, You wouldnt

leave the headquarters for no reason. There must have been something

unusual going on that had to be kept from everyone. Where exactly did you

go?

Alice said nothing

Cant talk about it? Gong Jie narrowed his eyes and asked again, Then let me

ask you another question. Gong Fan.. who exactly is this child?

Alices fingers tightened around the wine gla.s.s. Gong Jie observed the change

in her expression and saw her stiffened fingers. He knew at once.

Alice replied, Gong Fan? Why are you suddenly asking about him? No one in

the entire Hurricane Group knows where this child is from.

But you do.

L

Alice, you know that the mouth can lie but the eyes cant. Gong Jie continued

expressionlessly, Now that things have come to this, are you still trying to

hide it from me? If I werent confident, I wouldnt have come looking for you.

Tm here because Im 90%o sure that Gong Fan is Yun Tianyou, right?

Alice suddenly fell silent! She turned ashen and said, I dont know anything.

Do you really not know anything, or did Father tell you to keep it a secret, and

you cant talk about it?

Alice could not reply. She felt that she could not lie to Gong lie. But the rational

side of her reminded her to keep this secret. However, it was a big struggle for

her! Her heart ached for Youyou as well as Gong Jie!

Alice put down her wine gla.s.s and suddenly said, Gong Jie, as a friend, I wish

to remind you to persuade your sister to come back to the Gong family and

acknowledge her father. Blood is thicker than water they are related by blood.

How can a biological daughter not acknowledge her father?

Gong Jie narrowed his eyes with a gloomy expression.

Alice, are you implying that Father is hiding Youyou as a punishment for my

sister?

Alice looked away in panic. I didnt say that!

He suddenly grabbed her chin and forced her to look at him. Alice, loolk into

my eyes!

Alice looked up at him.

Gong Jie said to her in no uncertain terms, If you lie to me, Alice, youll regret

it!

Gong Jie

Do you know that weve gone crazy searching for Youyou?! Gong Jie suddenly

flared up. He stood up and said in a cold voice, What is this? Hiding a helpless

child and using him as a puppet.. What is this?!
