ealized the gravity of the situation, pleading with a face full of desperation, "Let's settle this privately, alright How much do you want I'll give it to you right away."Looking at his pitiful expres..."If that's the case, there's only one possibility: someone poisoned Aunt Xia!"

"Damn you, tell me who poisoned my mother, I'll kick your balls to pieces!"

Gao Daqiang was furious, but as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt dizzy and nauseous. Then, with a thud, he collapsed to the ground.

He was already tall, and this sudden fall shook the whole room.

Gao Jiajun had just saved his wife, and his son fainted again. He hurriedly called out: "Daqiang, what's wrong with you"

Ye Bufan hurried over to check Gao Daqiang's pulse. Soon, his expression became serious and he said, "Daqiang is also poisoned, the same as Aunt Xia."

Gao Jiajun stammered, "He just walked in, didn't even have a sip of water, how could he be poisoned"

"If there's no drinking water, then the air must be poisonous."

Ye Bufan looked around and saw a potted flower in the corner. Suddenly, his expression changed.

This is a flower about half a meter tall with green leaves and small red flowers that are particularly bright.

"Uncle Gao, where did this flower come from"

Gao Jiajun said: "This flower was sent by Xiao Gong. He knows your aunt likes flowers, so he sent this one. What's wrong"

"This flower is called Red Powder Skull. Its fragrance is poisonous, let's get out of here quickly!"

Ye Bufan was about to walk out the door, but suddenly he felt dizzy and fell to the ground beside Gao Daqiang. He then fainted.

“This… Xiaofan, Xiaofan, wake up!”

Gao Jiajun shouted, and the four people in the room fainted three, leaving only himself.

He didn't understand, if that pot of flowers was poisonous why wasn't he affected

He was just about to make a call when suddenly the door swung open and Gao Xiaogong walked in, followed by two tall bodyguards.

He walked up to Ye Bufan, and said with disdain: "Quack doctor, in the end you still fell into my hands."

Gao Jiajun furiously exclaimed, "Gao Xiaogong, you did all this"

"That's right, I did it."

Gao Xiaogong paid no heed to Gao Jiajun's fury, a wicked smile plastered on his face. "That Ye fellow is right, this flower is called the Crimson Skull. Its fragrance carries a deadly poison; it's an incredibly rare species."

To get this flower back, I spent a whopping two hundred thousand dollars.

Gao Jiajun roared angrily, “You beast! How could you do this Have you forgotten that if it wasn't for me back then, you would have...”

"He would starve to death on the streets."

"You're right, you saved me back then and even took me as your godson." Gao Xiaogong's expression changed. "But since you have a godson like me, you shouldn't be looking for a biological son anymore."

I've dedicated so many years to building up the Gao family. Why should he inherit everything just because he's your biological son This is simply unfair.

"You bastard, you ungrateful wretch, wolf in sheep's clothing!"

Gao Jiajun was about to punch Gao Xiaogong in the face, but as soon as he reached out, he was kicked over by a bodyguard standing beside him.

Gao Xiaogong said with disdain, "Old Man Gao, at your age, I advise you to just be honest."

Gao Jiajun shouted: "Come here, come quickly!"

He wanted to call for the bodyguard outside, but after calling for a long time, there was no movement at all outside the door.

Gao Xiaogong smiled and said, "Alright, stop yelling. I had them all go outside to guard before I came in. You could scream until you're hoarse and no one would hear you."

"Don't forget, I'm your godson, so my words still count."

"You... you..."

Gao Jiajun was so angry his whole body trembled, yet he was helpless.

Gao Xiaogong pulled a chair and sat down: "Old Gao, don't think you're the only smart one. Can't you see I came to Jiangnan City to be a whetstone for your son"

In fact, your son is not bad either. He's not as foolish as he seems on the surface. I put in so much effort, and I still couldn't get into his company.

But what can be done That's what they call being too smart for your own good. If he had just let me take control of the Brothers Investment Company, maybe he could have lived a few more years. Now, he can only go to meet the Grim Reaper early.

Gao Jiajun, after all, was a man who had weathered many storms. He knew that this was not the time to lose control of his emotions. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "No matter what, I adopted you back then."

"Can you, for all these years of friendship, please let my son go"

"Hey, old man, why are you so impatient I haven't finished speaking and you're already starting to make demands."

Gao Xiaogong pointed at Ye Bufan on the ground and said, "Actually, you can only blame this kid. It's him who keeps ruining my plans and messing things up. Otherwise, you and your son could have lived for a while longer."

I have to admit, this kid is pretty capable. I had people try to take them out on the road just now—a dozen gunmen couldn't even get the job done, and they managed to escape.

But no matter what, in the end he

"fell to my crimson skull."

"Since your flowers are so powerful, why am I fine" Gao Jiajun said in bewilderment.

"That's because I don't want you to get hurt." Gao Xiaogong said, "If even you were poisoned, Gao Dajiang and Ye Bufan would definitely be alerted, so I put the antidote in your water cup in advance."

Gao Jiajun sighed and said, "I didn't expect you to be so cunning. It seems I was mistaken."

"If you obediently leave your property to me and don't look for any biological sons, I would also take care of you until the end of your days. However, you are oblivious to your blessings while in them, and you can't blame others for that."

"Well, old man Gao, now we can talk about the terms," Gao Xiaogong said with a smug look on his face.

Gao Jiajun said: "Let us go, and I'll give you 1 million."

"One million" Gao Xiaogong sneered, "Old man Gao, it's time to pay the price for your life. Don't be so stingy with me now."

Others don't know, but I have a clear understanding of your assets. You clearly have 20 million, yet you only gave me 1 million. Where did the rest go Did you leave it for that idiot

Gao Jiajun said: "Don't be too greedy as a person. To tell you the truth, I used to work as a notary in Hong Kong before."

"If I die without a will, all my assets will be donated to charitable organizations in China. You won't get a penny."

"Of course I know that," Gao Xiaogong said, "That's why I didn't kill you directly. Now that you're still alive, you can completely change the will."

He finished speaking, then reached out his hand. The bodyguard next to him immediately handed him paper and a pen.

Gao Xiaogong slammed the pen and paper onto Gao Jiajun's desk with a loud bang, "Now write me a new will right now, all my assets go to me."

Gao Jiajun said: "Do you think I'm an idiot Knowing that I will die, I would still leave my inheritance to you, this ungrateful wretch"

"There are just my wife, my child, and Xiao Fan here. I can give you half of my estate. That money will be enough for you to eat, drink, and have fun for a lifetime. A person shouldn't be too greedy."

"Old man, do you think I'm a fool If I let you go, will I have any good days left"

A grim expression flashed across Gao Xiaogong's face. "I know you don't want to, but now you're at my mercy. I can do whatever I want to you. Whether or not you stand will be up to me."

He finished speaking and with a flash, drew out a dagger. He strode up to Gao, towering over him, and pressed the blade against his neck, saying, "Old man Gao, will you make this will or not If not, I kill him now!"

(The End)ve, completely releasing her true nature.Without this powerful man as her backing, the consequences for her would be unimaginable. So, when she acted, there was no mercy whatsoever.(To be continued, p...
