Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 264: 264: His wife, his woman

The warehouse door was shut, leaving only a pair of statuesque figures gazing at each other in the entire space; they had maintained this posture for quite a while even before the bandits left, as if the world had only the two of them.

In Li Yan’s deep black eyes, a hint of coldness flickered, mixed with anger, as he parted his thin lips and said, ”You’d better give me a reasonable explanation!”

Even though Gu Tong had smeared herself with charcoal, deliberately pinched her voice, and didn’t use her original tone, and even though she ’colluded’ with the bandits to create an incomprehensible facade!

Yet Li Yan was still able to recognize her at a glance, and he had identified her from the moment she entered the door!

Gu Tong was his wife, his woman!

He had no reason not to recognize his own beloved!

However, none of this was the main point anymore. Li Yan now only wanted to know why Gu Tong appeared in this place, a domain not belonging to her and a place she shouldn’t be.

What should come will eventually come...

Gu Tong knew she would have to explain sooner or later and that Li Yan would find out. She coughed and said, ”You didn’t bring me, so I had to come by myself...”

Her voice was small, as faint as a mosquito’s wings flutter, yet it still found its way into Li Yan’s ears.

Upon hearing the little woman’s ’righteous’ words, Li Yan felt an urge to break free from the ropes and slap her butt hard right away!

This is a battlefield! A place where one could lose their life at any moment, not a child’s play game, and she dared to follow him to the battlefield. What is she not capable of!

Heaven knows how angry Li Yan is; he’s nearly losing control.

Gu Tong could accurately judge her man’s expression; that eye filled with killing aura was enough to make her shrink her neck. She coughed again, saying, ”Now is not the time to talk about this...”

”So... I sent someone to contact a squad and informed them about the situation on the mountain! The signal just now was our secret code! I think most of the situation is handled now, which is why he informed us!”

Gu Tong began to change the subject. Li Yan understood his little woman and couldn’t ignore it, but given the special circumstances now, they should still prioritize the task.

Therefore, he’s temporarily putting this matter aside, preparing to settle accounts with his little woman after they descend the mountain!

”Did you tell him about defusing the bomb?”

The bomb is Li Yan’s biggest concern right now, so he brought it up first.

”Defusing the bomb requires specialists. Currently, there are not enough hands to get up the mountain, so it’s a problem. I contacted the search team and arranged for them to flood the explosives with water, which should mitigate the danger from the explosives!”

Gu Tong’s analysis was well-reasoned, but it was also a surface phenomenon, just like Li Yan’s thoughts before reaching the cave.

”Flooding won’t work; Chuan Er’s explosives are waterproof and extremely hidden. I checked the burial site of the explosives; there are no fuses or anything, so I suspect the explosives are advanced technology, remotely controlled.”

The most terrifying thing is this, that the bomb cannot be defused. The remote control is still with Chuan Er. Whether the mountain is blown and whether the locals are safe all depend on Chuan Er’s rational control.

If he goes completely mad, then the results will be unpredictable.
