Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

The black Bentley parked in a lot near the National Medical Hospital.

Gu Tong’s slender hand drew out the car key and instinctively picked up the files from the passenger seat before getting out of the car.

To avoid being too conspicuous, Gu Tong deliberately parked the car farther away, just wanting to avoid unnecessary trouble.

It wasn’t far from the National Medical College, and it was about a three-minute walk.

Judging by the time, it seemed just about right.

With that thought, Gu Tong stepped toward the direction of the National Medical College, while a faint vibration came from her pocket.

’Ring ring--’

The abrupt sound echoed throughout the underground parking lot as Gu Tong pulled out her phone and answered, saying, ”Hello!”

”Hi, honey, did you miss me, meow~~” Xia Xi’s playful voice slowly transmitted over the phone.

”...”

No need to guess, she knew it was this pesky fellow...

”What’s up?” Gu Tong deftly tucked the folder into her waist and slightly bent her arm to continue the call.

”Nothing, just missed you~” Xia Xi said cheekily, ”By the way, thanks to the Feng Family for the five million compensation. I’m planning a world tour honeymoon with the Demon King, love you, mwah~”

”...”

Gosh! Just knew this guy wouldn’t call for anything good.

”If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up.” Gu Tong said impatiently, inwardly bleeding for the five million.

”Hey hey hey, don’t be so heartless, we can’t return to Shoucheng because of you guys, it’s really pitiful.”

”...”

Who was just talking about going on a honeymoon, looking all excited like that? Changing faces faster than flipping a book.

”Are you sure there’s nothing else?” Gu Tong raised an eyebrow, already out of the parking lot exit, yet unwilling to keep dragging it on with her.

She still had a pile of things to deal with.

”There is, there is...” With years of understanding, Xia Xi clearly sensed the change in Gu Tong’s tone and realized she was really going to hang up, so she said, ”In a while, I’ll need your help with something, accompanying me to a place I’ve mentioned to you before.”

”You found it?” If Gu Tong remembered correctly, Xia Xi was looking for something, and that place was quite troublesome and filled with danger.

Xia Xi had initially asked Gu Tong for help when the memory resurfaced. However, due to memory issues and fragmented past-life memories, she struggled to piece them together, despite many attempts.

”Sort of!” Xia Xi pressed her lips, saying, ”I’ve used many methods recently to try to recover my memory, but nothing worked, so I found a pattern! When I’m with you and something particularly thrilling happens, my memory loosens, and my head hurts.”

”???

What pattern??

Take her on adventures??

Gu Tong internally rejected this and wanted to hang up the phone immediately!

”So, if you ever encounter any dangerous tasks, you can bring me along. My combat power is enough, my brain is agile, and our coordination is seamless. We can definitely become the most adorable and cute helpers~~”

”...”

But you get headaches at the drop of a hat, and it’s deadly.

Also, to poke fun at you a bit, who brags about themselves like this! Absolutely shameless!

After a few minutes of talking with Xia Xi, Gu Tong’s head was starting to ache, thinking so, she pressed her temple and said, ”Miss Xia Xi, I think you’re mistaken. I’m a Royal Doctor, not a Special Ops Trainee, so I don’t deal with bloody scenarios, and therefore can’t help you look for memories in danger.”
