Wealthy Beauty in the 60s-Chapter 672 - 674: The Big Tree Has Fallen

The Gong Family sought out Xia Xiao, which was undoubtedly a favor to the Gao family by arranging a marriage between Shitou and Gong Xiaomeng, but Xia Xiao naturally refused.

The Gao family was unyielding, which greatly annoyed the Gong and Cao families, and once again, Gao Jiaxing’s promotion was blocked.

However, this time, Gao Jiaxing didn’t show his anger, but Xia Xiao could feel the dangerous aura emanating from Gao Jiaxing.

Moreover, this time the Gong and Cao families had completely displeased Gao Jiaxing, and the Wen Family did not make a sound.

The Gao family wasn’t so easy to bully either, not to mention that Shitou was the grandson of the Li and Ning families. Also, Han Jiaojie had caught the eye of Jing Hao. With Shitou, a young hacker, the Gong and Cao families couldn’t gain any advantage.

By this time, Han Jiaojie’s background was exposed on the internet, even including DNA comparison photos of Han Jiaojie’s son, Elder Gong, and Gong Xiaomeng.

Boom, the internet exploded.

Although these were quickly deleted, once removed, the websites immediately encountered problems.

Slap, at the Gong residence, Elder Gong slapped Han Jiaojie across the face, "Fool."

Elder Gong’s expression darkened, his gaze at Han Jiaojie stormy, as if looking at a dead person.

Han Jiaojie shrank back in fear, "Husband, I just thought..."

"Thought what? You target the Gao family, don’t think I don’t know. Who did you date before, could you hide it from me? Considering you bore me a son, I indulged you and secretly set traps for the Gao and Jing families too. But you? You just added to my troubles. This time, the Gong family may be ruined because of me."

Elder Gong truly felt like killing Han Jiaojie, he said to her, "You must face this situation."

Han Jiaojie widened her eyes, "What do you mean?"

Elder Gong whispered a few words. Han Jiaojie shook her head repeatedly and stepped back. "I was wrong, I can do anything you ask, but I can’t do this."

In that moment, Han Jiaojie rushed over and hugged Elder Gong’s legs, crying profusely, "If I really say those words, my reputation will be gone, what about the child?"

"He is still young and knows nothing, I will send him abroad, give him a new identity, he won’t be affected."

"No no..." Han Jiaojie couldn’t accept this outcome.

Elder Gong, with a gloomy face, said, "Then what do you want? His origin has already been revealed on the internet, can you keep him in the country? You’re also pregnant now, if this matter doesn’t calm down, have you thought about the consequences, or do you want to ruin me?"

Han Jiaojie shook her head, covered her face, and cried out in pain, and finally, Elder Gong embraced her to console her.

The next day, with a haggard face, Han Jiaojie recorded a video. In the video, she was deeply remorseful, saying she married Elder Gong’s driver for protection, couldn’t bear the loneliness, and crawled into Elder Gong’s bed when he was drunk, which led to the birth of her son.

Han Jiaojie took all the blame upon herself, after all, she was a mother and still considered her son.

At this time, Han Jiaojie only recorded her upper body, so her pregnancy wasn’t visible in the video. She could imagine how people would curse and think about her once the words got out, but for her child, Han Jiaojie had to compromise.

She was also doing this for herself, for if Elder Gong fell, it would be troublesome for her too.

As for Gong Xiaomeng, she was directly punished by family law, Elder Gong and Elder Cao had indulged their granddaughter in the past, now they despised her as much.

Gong Xiaomeng was supposed to be a union between two families, so both elders had been very indulgent, yet they didn’t expect indulgence to lead to issues.

As for Han Jiaojie, originally she lured Gong Xiaomeng to find Shitou, had someone film the video, aiming to cause trouble for the Gao family, but ended up implicating herself.

Han Jiaojie posted the video from a dark internet café, Elder Gong initially didn’t know it was her doing, but she had already been targeted by Jing Hao’s side, hence her actions were eventually exposed due to Jing Hao’s careful planning.

Now, Elder Gong hated Han Jiaojie enough to want to eradicate her violently if possible, but he still needed to keep Han Jiaojie.

Because of this incident, Elder Gong was also under scrutiny, and Elder Cao wasn’t much better, though he didn’t have as many problems as Elder Gong. Elder Cao was trapped by his own granddaughter, a true case of being an innocent bystander.

But Elder Cao wasn’t entirely innocent; after all, his indulgence contributed to Gong Xiaomeng’s behavior. He had sown the seeds of his own bitter fruit and had to swallow it himself.

As the end of the year approached, Gong Xiaomeng and Han Jiaojie’s son were both sent abroad, obviously to different places. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Elder Gong was questioned over his conduct and suffered damage to his reputation. Though not suspended from his job instantly, once the year was over, Elder Gong was investigated.

Once trouble started in the Gong family, the Cao family immediately disassociated themselves, and Cao’s daughter also divorced Elder Gong’s son.

It was a very practical problem: if there was love in an arranged marriage, it could survive, but without it, once one party faced problems, they would be abandoned.

The fact that Han Jiaojie was expecting her second child was also discovered by netizens, and since it was another son, Elder Gong decided not to terminate the pregnancy.

Some netizens wondered whether this was Elder Gong’s child or the old driver’s, especially since the old driver was taking care of Han Jiaojie at that time.

Seeing the old driver treating her the same as before, without overstepping boundaries, Han Jiaojie gradually relaxed.

But as her son was born and Elder Gong was convicted, the old driver gradually changed.

And Han Jiaojie and the old driver actually became a real couple. Han Jiaojie almost wanted to die, but with her son in the old driver’s hands, she was powerless.

With Elder Gong’s support gone, Han Jiaojie couldn’t rely on her own family, so she was kept by the old driver, living a married life.

But the old driver wasn’t very kind to Han Jiaojie, considering her a jinx, blaming her for the troubles of his family and Elder Gong, and harming his daughter.

With Elder Gong’s downfall, naturally, a batch of associated people fell, including the old driver’s daughter and son-in-law, making the old driver resent Han Jiaojie even more.

However, the old driver’s grandson was studying abroad and was spared the ordeal.

This time the Han family fell; the Gao family seemed not to have intervened, seemed innocent, yet it also intimidated some people.

It was the first time others realized the Gao family had strengthened and was not so easily bullied anymore.
