Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Originally, Yuan Jianlan was kindly giving Gu Tong advice, but she belatedly remembered their agreement.

She pointed to her own nose and said, ”I won’t be... the target you want to practice on, right...”

Earlier, Gu Tong had proposed that whenever she wanted to spar, Yuan Jianlan must agree. At the time, Jianlan didn’t take it seriously and just agreed.

Gu Tong smiled, revealing her white little tiger teeth, almost dazzling Jianlan’s eyes.

Jianlan wished she could smack herself, thinking that impulsiveness is pure mischief. Look, now she’s been led down the garden path...

”Fine, I accept my bad luck. From now on, whenever you want to spar, feel free to find me.”

She was always true to her word, fulfilling what she promised, and besides, she found Gu Tong much more pleasing to the eye now, so she didn’t mind doing this little favor for her.

”Thanks!” Gu Tong’s words weren’t fancy, but nothing was more moving than this simple gratitude. She added, ”Your calf is scratched. When you get back, put some ointment on it, be careful of infection.”

Jianlan glanced at her own calf and only then noticed a small scratch. She quickly waved it off, saying, ”It’s nothing, just needs a wash when I get back. No need to fuss.”

”An infected wound can lead to many diseases. There’s a camping drill coming up. If it delays you, I would feel deeply guilty.”

Gu Tong, being a medical student, was particularly concerned about matters like human safety and insisted on applying ointment for Jianlan.

Unable to resist, Jianlan stopped struggling. After all, it was good to prevent inflammation. ”Alright then... I didn’t expect you to know so much, almost like the doctors at a hospital...”

”I am a medical student.” Gu Tong didn’t hide it and spoke truthfully.

”You’re a medical student... then why come to Specialty Pavilion Academy... instead of becoming a medical trainee...”

After all, being a medical trainee was quite prestigious, and the benefits were quite good. ”But medical trainees usually require graduates from specialized academies, especially the Royal Hospital is even stricter... hard to arrange...”

She mistakenly thought Gu Tong’s academic credentials were not high, so she didn’t meet the standard for a medical trainee.

”I graduated from the First Royal Hospital.”

”Huh?” Jianlan was tongue-tied.

The First Royal Hospital... it’s the dream cradle for Royal Doctors... Everyone who comes out of there is a talent, all targets for the Royal Hospital’s recruitment.

”Then why did you come to Specialty Pavilion Academy...” This doesn’t add up...

”My dad thinks my mindset isn’t mature enough and needs cultivation.”

”...” Oh my gosh, this is wasting Specialty Pavilion Academy’s talent...

But then... thinking of Gu Wangjue’s mindset, perhaps he wants his daughter to become exceptional; it’s very possible he’d do something like this...

Unexpectedly, the person she thought had connections isn’t ordinary at all. She doesn’t need any connections to land a great job and doesn’t need to come to a place like this for hardships.

Indeed, never underestimate others; everyone is extraordinary.

”Ummm... sorry, I didn’t realize you’re so impressive... I shouldn’t have believed the gossip and mistakenly thought you had connections...”

Yuan Jianlan was quite naive, always saying what she thought. Feeling her assumptions were extreme and misunderstood Gu Tong, she felt she had to apologize.

Gu Tong knew her character from the start and didn’t mind at all, but she still focused on the critical point, asking, ”Whose gossip? Who said it?”
