Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

”The Eldest Young Master of the Li Family reneged on the marriage contract with the Lin Family, and I want to ask Madam, how do we resolve this?”

The inevitable moment had arrived. Gong Qingwan had long prepared for this drama; how could she let it end easily?

If she didn’t stir up a lasting conflict, she wouldn’t be satisfied.

Thinking of this, her emotions calmed considerably, and she smiled apologetically, ”What are you talking about? The Eldest Young Master just returned, this reneging on the contract...”

She only spoke half her words, making herself seem particularly awkward, yet in reality, directly throwing the problem to the other, leaving it for them to handle.

Wasn’t this little vixen eloquent? She gave her the opportunity! Let’s see how she quells the Lin Family Head’s fury.

One must know, Gong Qingwan had given the Lin Family Head many benefits, and if he could switch sides, that would be something.

”This matter does not concern Madam, I will not discuss it with you!” Lin Weihai’s purpose was clear. With a wave of his hand, he sat directly on the sofa, stared at Li Yan, and said, ”Eldest Young Master, how do we resolve this, you tell me!”

All eyes in the hall were focused on Li Yan, and the atmosphere turned tense.

Li Yan, holding a teacup in one hand, raised his thick eyebrows, displaying a completely defiant demeanor, and said, ”Hmm?”

A unique aura filled with a sense of authority pressed on everyone’s nerves in the hall. Who would’ve thought that the Eldest Young Master, who had not returned for years, would possess such a strong oppressive presence.

Just a simple ’Hmm’, spoken lightly, was enough to convey his unyielding majesty.

Could such a person be ordinary...

Lin Weihai, the Lin Family Head, was momentarily stunned, almost forgetting what to say. It was unclear how much time passed before he finally recovered, saying, ”Eldest Young Master, you...”

”Pfft...” A silver-bell-like mocking laugh diverted all attention.

Gu Tong, with a teacup between her fingers, was amused by her man’s intentional behavior.

Lin Weihai glanced over and couldn’t help but frown, filled with disgust. He had no goodwill toward this instigator who disrupted the marriage alliance between the Li Family and the Lin Family.

One must know, it was because of her that the Lin Family could not hold onto the Li Family’s coattails.

”Who is this lady?” Lin Weihai’s voice was icy, not seeing her as someone of any standing, presumably just a woman from an ordinary family!

”This is the Eldest Young Master’s wife.” Sister He, quick to respond, hurriedly answered, knowing well that the Lady did not want their identity exposed, so she spoke first to prevent Gu Tong from announcing herself.

”So it was you!”

As a Family Head, he shouldn’t let emotions show, but Lin Weihai still expressed disgust, saying, ”Miss, what did I say for you to find it so amusing?”

Gu Tong did not suppress her smile, her lips moved slightly, ”I just think the Lin Family Head is too persistent, insisting on arguing out a reason. How can the Eldest Young Master, who hasn’t returned for years, answer you?”

”That’s not the way to put it! Years of absence isn’t a reason? My poor daughter waited for him for over twenty years! She’s now an old maid, isn’t that pitiful? As a father, I am heartbroken!”

Lin Weihai expressed his distress and his desire to seek justice for his daughter. His performance was convincing, leading the uninformed to believe he was a deeply loving father.
