Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 303: 303: The old mother is so angry.

Speaking of which, time flies by in the blink of an eye.

Before they knew it, they had already been married for a month.

The two of them didn’t even realize it, nor did they react. Maybe it was because there had been too much going on these past days, leading to their distorted perception of time. If it hadn’t been for Gu Wangjue reminding them to pay a visit to her family today, they might have perfectly missed it again.

However, it must be mentioned that when they first learned about the visit, the two of them were like facing a formidable enemy. They rushed to the mall almost instantly, grabbing anything expensive, high-end, and beautiful they could lay their hands on, determined to make this visit perfect.

Just as the married trainees had said before, visiting the family is all about giving the wife face, and the things they bring symbolize the wife’s face! This saying kept ringing in Li Yan’s head, and he couldn’t shake it off.

This even made him keep staring at Gu Tong’s flawless, porcelain-like, bright-eyed, and pearly-toothed beautiful face while shopping.

With every glance, the crazier his hand movements got in selecting items! If Gu Tong wasn’t holding him back, he might have taken the entire mall home!

Joking aside, with a wife as beautiful as her, how expensive must that face be!

Gu Tong was obviously not expecting her husband to have a shopping spree tendency.

But thinking these things were bought for the family visit, her heart felt warm.

However, now they were a family, and she couldn’t put others before them. As the saying goes, ”A married daughter is like water spilled out.” There’s quite a truth to this saying.

”Are you sure you’re not trying to scare me?”

Going to battle isn’t this terrifying, right? And having to describe the ’enemy’ beforehand, too.

Gu Tong quickly shook her head and said, ”I didn’t exaggerate one bit... Just think, my dad is Gu Wangjue, and anyone who can control him can’t possibly be ordinary...”

Hmm, she made a valid point.

Now he’s even more afraid of the mother-in-law, how troubling...

”Well, talking about it doesn’t help; we’re already at the doorstep. Whether you stick your neck out or tuck it in, it’s just one chop. Sooner or later, we’ll have to face it.”

With that, Gu Tong waved her hand in frustration, looking completely like she’d given up.

Li Yan widened his eyes, feeling that this little woman was irresponsible, scaring him like this and then just walking away, as if on the battlefield, he would have been slashed eight hundred times already.

But...

What needs to be faced eventually must be faced, even if avoiding it is useless. Having thought this, he pursed his lips and followed behind Gu Tong, heading towards her family home.

In the Academy Courtyard, houses were allocated based on medals, and with Gu Wangjue’s high position, naturally, his allocated residence was much larger.

It was a standalone building with a courtyard outside where some flowers and plants could be grown. Inside was a courtyard house, more than sufficient for a family’s residence.

The old Princes had worked hard and contributed greatly to Longxing Country, so they deserved to be treated favorably.

At this moment, on the hexagonal stone path in the Gu family yard.

A woman with a ponytail stood in the yard, her eyes as clear as autumn water looking around.

She was naturally beautiful, with ruby lips and jade-like face.

Wearing an elegant blue cheongsam, her figure was graceful and charming. She wore a pair of embroidered shoes with her hands naturally falling in front, exuding the style of a lady from a prestigious family.

Her crystal-clear pupils moved slightly, seeing something unknown, she smiled brightly, saying calmly and elegantly—

”Xiao Tong, you finally came back, come over and let mom see if you’ve gained or lost weight.”

Just this sentence sent a shiver through Gu Tong, who had just stepped one foot through the door. She stared blankly at her ’mother’ who was smiling brilliantly, cursing her ’father’ internally as well.

How could he falsely report the situation...

With mom this angry, and still calling her home, wasn’t this just sending her into the lion’s mouth...

This is really not fair...
