Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Gu Tong couldn’t help but remember how, before leaving, Feng Shulan had especially reminded her to take care of the Feng Family while on the mission.

Originally...

She thought it was normal care, but she didn’t expect it to be this kind of care...

”No, no... my last name isn’t Feng, inheriting the Feng Family isn’t suitable... and it doesn’t have to be a main family’s descendant, right? My uncle also has children, there’s no way it would fall to me... Oh, and I have an older brother, first come, first served, he can handle this ’big responsibility’...”

Screwing over her brother, such things, Gu Tong found very easy.

Feng Zhuoliang didn’t expect Gu Tong to refuse, or to even recommend her brother. After a brief pause, he said, ”It seems, big sister really protected you well, hasn’t told you anything...”

After a sigh, Feng Zhuoliang said, ”The Feng Family has always passed down to daughters, not sons, it’s been the rule since ancient times. In the past, the daughters of the Feng Family never married out, but brought husbands in. Big sister getting married during wartime was an exception, there was no way around it; if it weren’t for that, she wouldn’t have left Shoucheng.”

”As for you not having the Feng surname, a strategy was planned from the time you were born. When your name was written in the family tree, they added the Feng surname; so when you give birth to a daughter in the future, the family’s rules will continue. By the way, you should mention this to your husband so that the Li Family won’t disagree.”

”I have no objections,” Li Yan casually said, supporting his chin with one hand.

Actually, even before marrying Gu Tong, his father-in-law, while recounting family history, had explained this background and lamented how hard it was to get Gu Tong named Gu Yunyun at the time.

”That’s good.” Feng Zhuoliang was very pleased to hear this and said, ”Then it’s settled, without any further changes!”

”???” Good? It’s not good at all... There’s definitely going to be changes...

Gu Tong stared at Li Yan, who had agreed without hesitation, feeling like crying but having no tears left.

How come out of nowhere did her daughter have to change her surname to Feng...

What kind of situation is this...

At this moment, Gu Tong’s mind was completely blank and in chaos, as if she were visiting some extremely rich relatives, only for them to insist on giving her a house, claiming it was hers to begin with...

In fact, if it were just about getting a house, given Gu Tong’s ’money-grubbing’ nature, she might just agree.

However...

The problem is, this house must be full of troubles that just make her head hurt to think about...

”Can’t daughters from side branches inherit the family head?” Gu Tong was almost in tears, wishing she could perform a special surgery on her own brother to turn him into a woman...

”Hahaha, our side branch isn’t that fortunate, with five sons and not a single daughter.” Among the three siblings of the side branch, all children were sons, no daughters.

”...” Is this funny? It’s not amusing at all...

Feng Zhuoliang laughed heartily and said, ”Actually, we hadn’t planned to tell you this so early. According to big sister’s intentions, she thought as long as you birthed a daughter, she would be sent back home. But unexpectedly, you actually married into the Li Family in Shoucheng. After consulting with big sister, we felt this was a suitable opportunity for you to naturally inherit the family business.”

”...” Is Feng Zhuoliang tired of being family head or what!?

And, how come his words have a tone of ’since you’ve come knocking, there’s no way I won’t take advantage’?

Gu Tong was completely breaking down in tears.
