Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 1169: Chapter 1168: She Said She’d Be Back in Three Days

Gong Chenli tapped the table twice and affirmed, ”Their destination this time is C City, using the train as transportation, and it can take two days and one night to reach the destination.”

The specific task wasn’t mentioned, only the destination C City.

Gong Chenli stopped speaking, as if Li Yan would immediately understand.

Li Yan’s deep pupils slightly darkened and he said, ”She said she’d be back in three days!”

Two days and one night, not even enough for a one-way trip! How could she be back in three days?

”...” Damn! This obviously isn’t the point.

Gong Chenli was so infuriated by his nephew that he felt like smoke was coming out of his seven orifices, ”Can’t you focus on the main point! C City! Their destination is C City! Other than the old man’s reserved burial plot, there’s no other possibility!”

The old master of the Li Family was an extremely peculiar elder, obviously vigorous and still afraid of death, fearing his discomfort after passing away.

Thus, he prepared many reserved burial plots, claiming they were for his posthumous resting place.

However!

This claim wasn’t widely believed.

The old master of the Li Family was known for leaving everything complete and perfect with his plans. If not for some special reason, he surely wouldn’t waste resources on reserved burial plots. All the juniors in the family knew this.

Because of this, the old man’s reserved burial plot sparked speculation among various families. Ever since the old man let out the land deed, various families tried every means conceivable to seize it.

After all, the old man of the Li Family was too mysterious, with limitless resources in his hand, inevitably stirring the greed of interested parties.

Li Yan glanced at him indifferently, ”It’s just the Death Tombstone in Zone C!” implying, I know, why worry.

”...” Thank you for knowing, clearly aware of the situation, and still going off-topic, truly remarkable...

Gong Chenli nearly gave up on communicating with him, ”The Death Tombstone, apart from the tombstone, there’s nothing else! The old man of the Li Family once hinted to the Academy, there’s a possibility of a treasure hidden there, but he couldn’t recall the specific burial plot, almost driving the top officer at the Academy to flip the table!”

”...” Li Yan could easily imagine the old man’s exasperating expression.

Always willing to pretend to be senile and play dumb, aggravating everyone to the verge of stomping their feet, he chuckled to himself thinking if not for his old age, he’d probably have been beaten up hundreds of times.

Li Yan pursed his lips and said, ”I’ve heard about this before, the Academy sent people many times searching for the burial plot, but other than the tombstone, nothing else was found.”

Back then, they thought the old man was joking with them, and the situation escalated, almost causing trouble, so Li Yan remembers it vividly.

After all, as the old man’s grandson, many people unable to confront the old man directly would come to him for answers.

Gong Chenli leaned against the sofa, speaking leisurely, ”During that time, Gong Qingwan also showed interest in the Death Tombstone and even asked me to buy the land at a high price. After purchasing, I didn’t give it to Gong Qingwan, instead, I let the cat take it.”

Li Yan raised an eyebrow, ”So, this time Xia Xi used this burial plot to apply to borrow Gu Tong from the Academy, they are going to the cemetery for the treasure inside?”

”Exactly!” Gong Chenli didn’t deny it, ”Going to the cemetery, on the surface, poses no problem! But that’s under the premise the cemetery is undiscovered, if the burial plot is found, then it’s another matter entirely.”
