Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 387: 387: The Rules of Xinyuan

Gu Tong watched these women rush up and down in front of her, jumping without restraint.

Then she was ’assisted’ directly out of the car by two or three servants, her hands were tied, and she couldn’t resist, so she could only curse the heavens while resigning herself to her fate...

Within a few steps, Gu Tong was brought in front of Mo Ruoqing.

”The new face isn’t bad.”

Mo Ruoqing glanced at her with a knife-hidden-in-smile look, a cold smile hanging on her lips.

But just that one sentence was enough to send a chill through everyone...

They knew that Mo Ruoqing was as narrow-minded as a needle, and the consequence of being praised by her was far worse than being toyed with...

Gu Tong looked back calmly, taking in the entirety of Mo Ruoqing’s expression, yet her own face showed no excess emotions; instead, she raised her hand slightly, indirectly hinting about the untying.

This action and emotion made Mo Ruoqing give her another look, her expression full of endless suspicion.

She had been by the gentleman’s side for many years, and had seen all sorts of people, but now, the person in front of her gave her an extraordinary feeling.

Mo Ruoqing raised her hand, her red lips parting as she said, ”Untie her!”

”Yes!” The servants trembled inwardly, secretly sympathizing with Gu Tong; although they didn’t know Mo Ruoqing’s purpose in untying her, they understood it surely wasn’t out of good intentions...

The servants untied the restraints on her wrists, and without the ropes, Gu Tong felt much more at ease; she didn’t like being controlled, the feeling of losing control made her insecure.

”Name!”

Mo Ruoqing toyed with her nails, maintaining an arrogant attitude, mixing indifference with disdain, a true master of pretension.

”Xue Tong!”

Gu Tong responded casually, yet her tone was filled with calm, not allowing anyone to sense defiance.

Mo Ruoqing raised her eyelids, her flickering black eyes infused with a trace of coldness, said, ”Xue Tong, is it? We have many rules here at Xinyuan! There is a lot to learn! But remember one thing: don’t entertain thoughts that do not belong to you, or else you won’t last long!”

Just a few warning words, that was Mo Ruoqing’s way of establishing dominance.

Gu Tong’s impeccable demeanor left her with no opening to exert her authority.

However, as the new official taking office, she had to showcase her authority in front of the newcomer, that was the rule!

”Understood!”

Gu Tong replied, clearly not having taken her words to heart.

Instead, she caught the words Xinyuan! It turns out, this area has a name, called Xinyuan!

For some reason, she felt a strange sense of familiarity, as if she had heard this name somewhere before!

Mo Ruoqing stared at Gu Tong for a while, wishing to see through her thoughts; she wasn’t afraid of the newcomer causing trouble, just afraid she had no spirit, which would mean that if she wanted to address it, she would need a reason!

However, a slight mischievous smile played at her lips, she looked Gu Tong up and down, saying, ”Our Xinyuan is special! Also, no contraband is allowed, so I’ll have to perform a routine inspection!”

As soon as she finished speaking, she glanced at the several servants nearby. They were a mixed group of men and women, of varying heights, but they all shared the same feature: they all rushed towards Gu Tong!

Gu Tong’s pupils flashed with a hint of coldness, yet she also understood Mo Ruoqing’s meaning!
