Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 1017: Chapter 1016: I Whispered It in Your Ear

No matter how noisy it was downstairs, it had nothing to do with what was happening upstairs.

Li Yan carried Gu Tong back to the room, and as soon as the door closed, they could temporarily forget about everything else outside.

Gu Tong lay in Li Yan’s arms, kicking her legs, flailing her arms, and laughing, ”Haha~ Gong Qingwan’s face almost turned coal black~ It kills me with laughter~”

The small woman clutched her stomach, laughing as if she’d seen the funniest thing in the world.

Li Yan shook his head helplessly, saying, ”Is it really that funny?”

Gu Tong covered her mouth, ”Of course~ It’s not normally funny~ Haha, from the way she looks, she must not have slept all night. Her face is too haggard to flatter, truly guilty as a thief~”

Yesterday, they had discussed early on, just to scare Gong Qingwan, so she would be on edge and show her true colors. They intentionally didn’t return all night, giving Gong Qingwan time to think.

A whole night’s time was enough to torment Gong Qingwan, but who would’ve thought she’d be so resourceful, even fainting at the end, it was simply not worth the loss.

Thinking about this made Gu Tong laugh uncontrollably. She collapsed entirely in Li Yan’s arms, utterly drained of strength.

The small woman laughed so hard she was rocking back and forth, and Li Yan dared not place her on the bed for fear she’d fall.

So, he simply sat on the bed, letting the small woman have her fun, saying, ”Don’t choke yourself.”

Gu Tong tugged at Li Yan’s clothes, naturally sitting up straight, wrapping her arms around his neck, saying, ”I’m fine~”

Li Yan furrowed his brows, ”Do you think she really fainted?”

Gu Tong blinked, ”Who cares, anyway, her disguise is useless, and besides, when soldiers come, the Academy will handle them. Let’s see what new tricks she can pull.”

Gu Tong didn’t take Gong Qingwan seriously.

Saying that, she kissed Li Yan’s thin lips, changing the topic, ”In the morning, you left me at the hostel, I haven’t settled that with you yet.”

Settle?

Li Yan raised an eyebrow, saying, ”There was special training in the morning, I told you.”

Gu Tong widened her eyes, ”When?”

Yeah, you never said!

Li Yan furrowed his brows, ”While you were asleep yesterday, I said it in your ear!”

Gu Tong: ”...” That counts... are you sure I could hear...

But thinking about it, perhaps Li Yan was afraid of waking her, so that’s why he ’informed’ her this way.

Gu Tong was exasperated, saying, ”Leave a note next time, or send me a text.”

Actually, she knew where Li Yan was going, but just in case, if she woke up and found him not there without any notice, Gu Tong would always feel empty inside, feeling very uncomfortable.

”Okay.” Li Yan agreed readily, saying, ”By the way, where did you go in the afternoon?”

The afternoon...

Mentioning it, Gu Tong couldn’t help but remember what Xia Xi had said...

Gu Tong pressed her lips, saying, ”Xia Xi called, saying there was some task, and she borrowed me from the Academy to help. In the afternoon, I went to the teahouse she opened, had a seat, and chatted for a bit.”

It’s Xia Xi again.

She really gets along well with the small woman.

Li Yan frowned slightly, remembering how Gong Chenli once said, ’There’s always a part of the kitten I can’t figure out, like her relationship with Gu Tong.’ Li Yan deeply resonated with this, and it touched him!

However, even so, he couldn’t ask, nor did he know where to start, and gradually, it became a problem for him.

Li Yan said flatly, ”What task?”

Gu Tong shrugged, saying, ”I don’t know the specific process yet, and the organization hasn’t informed me, but I think a task given to me alone shouldn’t be too difficult.”
