Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

”Isn’t it because of you!”

Gu Qing glared at her and said, ”Li Yan didn’t make his identity public to protect you. Now, you plunged yourself in and refused to back out. So if he doesn’t reveal it now, it has no meaning. We might as well just let it all go!”

For her...

He would rather bear layers of danger just to protect her...

Gu Tong should have thought of it, but she couldn’t believe it.

Thinking of this, she resented her past self once again. If she had investigated a little more, would this situation not have happened...

”What about my identity this time?”

Gu Tong asked again. If Li Yan went as the eldest young master of the Li Family’s third generation, then Gu Tong would probably be the same.

”You will go as Li Yan’s wife, with no need to change anything else. You are still a Gu Family member, and have the title of Baron at the Academy!”

The Academy does this to ensure their safety, preventing the Li family from making a move; it’s a win-win situation and nothing more!

”This time the operation mission, making your identities public is a good thing both internally and externally, no need for covert operations. Contacting the Academy of Tong Pavilions will be more convenient too! However, the specific operational plans and timing have not been finalized yet, the rest can wait for later!”

Gu Qing completed all the mission handovers, impatiently beginning to pack up to go back. Before leaving, he did not forget to glare at Gu Tong a few times. Because of this troublemaking little rascal, he now had to completely overturn all the plans and start over. Not being angry would be truly bizarre.

Gu Tong smiled faintly, mischievous thoughts rising again, and said, ”Wait a minute, one more question.”

”Hmm?” Gu Qing turned around.

”Li Yan is the descendant of the third generation of the noble Li Family. So, does this mean the future inheritance of the Li Family’s wealth is personal and doesn’t need to be handed over to Longxing Country?”

After saying this, Gu Tong’s eyes were filled with symbols of money, as if they might pop out at any moment.

”...” Has the Gu family become so poor for her? This greedy girl...

However, thinking carefully, even if the Gu family is rich, they can’t compare to the Li family, so he said, ”Longxing Country only wants national treasures. Other than that, everything belongs to Li Yan personally and has nothing to do with Longxing Country or anyone else!”

Gu Tong was ecstatic. If this is the case, she really had clung to a big, sturdy leg, and an extremely thick one at that.

Thinking about this, she cheerfully sent Gu Qing to the door, her ears seemingly filled with the sound of money.

Gu Qing no longer wished to stay a moment longer with this money-crazed girl. He never knew this little troublemaker was so money-inspired.

He impatiently pushed open the door, a tall figure of a man appeared in his sight. He paused and said, ”Why are you standing at your door and not going in?”

Li Yan leaned against the doorway, glanced in, and said in a calm voice, ”I didn’t bring the key.”

Gu Qing: ”...” Could there be a faker excuse than this...

Gu Tong: ”...” Didn’t bring the key, you can knock...

Li Yan didn’t have to say much; the siblings could guess he was too nervous to enter the house.

Thinking about it, it’s because he didn’t dare face Gu Tong’s reaction; hence he called Gu Qing to inform her.

This proves he particularly cares about Gu Tong’s feelings and doesn’t want to hurt her anymore.

”Now that the door is open, you can go in.” Gu Qing rubbed his forehead, unwilling to argue with this wife-loving maniac. However, before leaving, he purposely patted Li Yan on the shoulder and said, ”I told her everything, you can go in later and explain it to her in detail.”

Li Yan: ”...” Gu Qing, you sneaky guy, did it on purpose!
