Chapter 79: Enchanted by the Man on the Boat?

Gong Xin Yi lifted Leng Xi Yue's legs, carefully examined them, and upon finding no injuries, he finally relaxed.

Leng Xi Yue finally understood what Gong Xin Yi was doing, "Thank you for your concern, I'm not injured."

"Then why didn't you come back earlier, hmm?" Gong Xin Yi narrowed his dark eyes, his tone sour again, "Enchanted by the man on the boat?"

"What are you talking about? Don't spout nonsense in front of the children!" Leng Xi Yue found this man somewhat dangerous and didn't want to engage with him further, hurrying off to be with her six little ones.

"Mommy, are you hungry?" Da Ya asked considerately.

"Mommy's not hungry." Saying this, Leng Xi Yue suddenly remembered she had brought clam meat for the children.

"You six come here, Mommy has brought you the most delicious delicacy in the world."

Saying so, she turned to Jin Yu, "Sister Jin, please bring me my things."

Jin Yu's expression froze instantly; everything had been thrown away by Gong Xin Yi, where was she supposed to retrieve it from?

"Sister Jin?" Leng Xi Yue was somewhat surprised, why was Jin Yu zoning out at this moment?

Jin Yu was extremely apologetic, "I'm sorry, Xi Yue, I... wasn't careful with your things..."

Sensing something was wrong, Leng Xi Yue quickly stood up, searching the living room for her clam meat and shell fragments.

After a frantic search turned up nothing, Leng Xi Yue confronted Gong Xin Yi with a cold face, "Where are my things? Did you throw them away?"

"I merely disposed of a pile of trash," Gong Xin Yi replied unhurriedly.

"Gong Xin Yi! You're heartless!" Leng Xi Yue angrily pointed, "That was centennial, no, millennial clam meat I brought for the children, even better than Monk Tang's flesh!"

Gong Xin Yi shook his head amusedly, "A hundred years? A thousand? You're underselling it; maybe it was even a billion years old!"

Cold Moonlight's gaze fell, "Gong Xinyi, I don't have the time to argue with you, tell me, where did you throw it?"

Gong Xinyi's smile faded, "Cold Moonlight, I've already told you it was thrown away. Do you actually want to retrieve it? You're not planning to dig out that meat from the trash and give it to the children, are you?"

"Trash can?"

Upon hearing these words, Cold Moonlight immediately searched through all the trash cans in the villa.

Gong Xinyi, watching this unfold, was nearly driven mad with frustration.

"Cold Moonlight, can't you have a little dignity? Can't the Gong family afford meat? To have you digging through the trash!"

"I told you, that's not ordinary meat!" Cold Moonlight searched through every trash can in the house, not finding the river clam meat, then moved to search the bins outside the villa.

It wasn't that she insisted on feeding the children clam meat; she just wanted to understand whether Gong Xinyi really threw the clam meat in the trash.

If he truly did, she wouldn't hesitate to turn against him!

Chen Yu couldn't stand to watch any longer, "Mr. Gong, can't you just tell her the truth? If a reporter captures her rummaging through the trash, the consequences would be unimaginable!"

"This woman..." Gong Xinyi gritted his teeth in anger.

Jin Yu hurriedly went to stop Cold Moonlight, "Cold Moonlight, stop searching, those things aren't here, they're in a trash can ten miles away."

"Ten miles away? You disrespectful man!" Cold Moonlight cursed in anger, then returned to the children, "Come on, let's go home with Mommy!"

The children felt torn, wondering why things had suddenly turned sour when moments ago, everything seemed fine.

Daddy is a good person, and Mommy is too, so why did everything become unpleasant when Daddy and Mommy came together?

"Cold Moonlight! Stop right there!" Gong Xinyi, fuming with anger, headed towards the family doctor's office with a stern face.

In fact, he hadn't thrown Cold Moonlight's river clam meat into the trash but had given it to the family doctor instead.

These items were from Hai Ge to Cold Moonlight, and since he didn't know what kind of person Hai Ge really was, getting it tested would ease his mind.

The family doctor had just cut a small piece of river clam meat for testing and placed it in the machine.

Seeing Gong Xinyi's grim expression, the doctor said with a trembling voice, "Mr. Gong, the test results are not out yet, we need to wait... wait a bit longer..."
