Chapter 2099: Our Gong Family Doesn’t Lack These
As Madam Gong spoke, her voice choked. “Ever since that time, you haven’t come home to see me. Are you only coming home when I die?”
“Mom, what nonsense are you talking about?” Gong Zeli frowned.
“I’m not talking nonsense.” Madam Gong choked. “Every time I ask you to come home, you find an excuse to say that you don’t have time to come back. I know you’re still angry with me, you must still blame me.
“What do you want Mom to do to make you forgive me?
“Do you want me to apologize to Qiao Mianmian personally?
“If this is the only way you’ll forgive Mom, then Mom will apologize to her. But no matter what, don’t ignore Mom like this.”
Gong Zeli kept quiet.
“Zeli…” Madam Gong started crying again. “Mom really misses you. Can you come home?”
Gong Zeli pursed his lips. After a while, he said, “I’ll be back soon.”
He hung up.
Gong Zeli sat in the car for a while before instructing the chauffeur. “Go back to the Gong Residence.”
…
An hour later.
At the Gong Residence.
“Young Master, you’re back.”
When Gong Zeli got out of the car, the housemaids greeted him.
Gong Zeli asked as he walked into the living room, “How’s Madam now?”
The housemaid blinked and replied respectfully, “Madam was resting just now, but a guest came to visit her. She’s accompanying the guest now.”
“Guest?” Gong Zeli stopped in his tracks and turned around. “What guest?”
“This…” The housemaid hesitated.
Gong Zeli frowned when he saw the maid’s reaction.
At this moment, the Gong family’s butler walked out of the living room.
Seeing Gong Zeli, the butler immediately went forward and bowed respectfully. “Young Master.”
Gong Zeli looked away from the housemaid and walked into the living room. “I heard there’s a guest?”
“Yes.” The butler followed behind him and smiled. “Madam is accompanying the guest in the hall, so she asked me to come out and fetch Young Master.”
Gong Zeli didn’t ask further and quickly walked into the living room.
He heard laughter and a familiar voice.
He stopped in his tracks and his expression darkened.
The butler quickly said, “Madam, Young Master is back.”
“Zeli, you’re back.”
At this moment, Madam Gong, who was chatting with her guest, looked up. When she saw that her son had finally come home, she immediately stood up.
Madam Gong hadn’t seen Gong Zeli for a while, so the joy on her face wasn’t fake.
Gong Zeli looked at her and then at the other two people sitting on the sofa.
He said expressionlessly, “Didn’t you say you were feeling unwell?”
Madam Gong was stunned and followed his gaze. She quickly explained, “Your Aunt Shen and Rourou are here to visit me. Look, these are the supplements they bought for me.”
Madam Gong picked up a gift box on the coffee table. “This bird’s nest and ginseng are top-notch and extremely rare. Your Aunt Shen said that this is for nouris.h.i.+ng the body and especially sent it to me.”
“Our Gong family doesn’t lack these, right?” Gong Zeli said without giving her any face. “You can eat these anytime you want.”
Madam Gong and Shen Rou’s expressions changed.
