Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

”Earl Li, rest assured, our hospital will surely commend doctors with high ethical standards. I’ll organize a commendation meeting soon to promote Doctor Gu’s deeds.”

”The trainees will only thank Doctor Gu privately and will not exploit public office for private gain to seek merit for Doctor Gu.” Li Yan’s words were righteous, though he was really just taking advantage.

”Doctor Gu is a model for us to learn from and should be commended for it...” Guo Chengyang was almost fuming, yet he dared not erupt, saying: ”Our army has always been promoting beliefs, the Royal doctors should also have a sense of belief...”

”The Royal Hospital having such an idea is also a good thing for the trainees.” Li Yan nodded as if reviewing work.

”Yes, yes, yes...” Guo Chengyang smiled apologetically, but his heart was cursing. He was the one who approved Gu Tong’s marriage application back then, so he knew about their secret marriage.

Pampering a wife shouldn’t be taken to such an extent, Earl Li, you’re overdoing it...

”The school is looking for me for some matters, so I’ll head back first.” Having achieved his goal, Li Yan naturally saw no reason to continue wasting words with Guo Chengyang.

”Let me see you off...” Guo Chengyang offered courteously, but inwardly he couldn’t wait for the Devil King to leave quickly.

”Dean Guo, you’d best return to handling your own matters.” Li Yan reminded him, his gaze lightly brushing by the office door.

Guo Chengyang once again gained a new understanding of Earl Li’s indulgence of his wife, truly unable to suffer any loss...

Perhaps he should establish a regulation in the future to specially accommodate this young madam, Gu Tong...

...

Gu Tong, standing in the office, knew that Li Yan had left, but she felt an indescribable sensation. Was he protecting her because he liked her... or because she saved his trainee...

She remembered that in her previous life, Li Yan never came to the office...

She focused on contemplating this issue.

She even ignored Guo Chengyang, who burst in angrily, and by the time she snapped out of it, she heard Guo Chengyang’s earnest words, ”Gu Tong, rest assured that the Royal Hospital will definitely publicize your deeds, and there will certainly be an explanation for this matter.”

Gu Tong regained her composure and said, ”Dean Guo, I trust the hospital!”

Guo Chengyang breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Gu Tong would latch onto this issue and not let go, saying, ”That’s good, you’ve had a long day, go home and rest well, there’s no need for you to be on duty tonight.”

He couldn’t risk tiring Gu Tong... his heart couldn’t handle it...

Gu Tong understood his intent, yet she did not acknowledge his favor.

She thanked him briefly and left on her own.

Guo Zhiyuan couldn’t hold back anymore and said, ”Uncle, she acted on her own without following the regulations, we...”

”You shut up for me!” If it weren’t for the sake of his younger brother, Guo Chengyang would’ve wanted to beat him up for a long time, saying, ”Now all the academy leaders are in the hospital, and you want to stir trouble at this juncture? Do you think I’m tired of living?”

”Uncle, I didn’t...”

”Do you want me skinned alive? This is a critical moment for the academy’s review, and the Royal Hospital’s performance will determine the future evaluation results. I don’t seek merit, only no fault! Can you just settle down and stop causing trouble!” Guo Chengyang, already filled with fury, let it all out.

Guo Zhiyuan considered himself unfortunate to become the scapegoat and said, ”It won’t happen a second time...” Though he conceded verbally, his inner anger was undiminished. Now he hated Gu Tong entirely, and as the saying goes, a gentleman’s revenge lasts ten years; just wait and see!
