Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

”The medical books were right, pain stimulates the nerves, restoring heart function. Sure enough, one jab and Mom got better.”

This is the advantage of having studied medicine; you can seriously talk nonsense, and no one will question you.

Li Yan’s mom was left speechless, just having to accept her misfortune.

”Mom, how are you feeling? How about I let some more blood for you, it might relieve you quite a bit.”

Li Yan’s mom gritted her teeth, knowing full well it wasn’t about letting blood but rather taking the chance for revenge, ”I’m fine, no need for you to worry.”

Gu Tong was a bit skeptical, ”Are you really okay? You better not force yourself.”

”I said I’m fine, and that’s that. My health is great.” Still wanting a chance to jab her, no chance.

”Oh, then I’m relieved...” Gu Tong murmured with a smile, ”Since Mom is fine, I’ll head back first. Li Yan has been waiting for some news, so I should let him know everything’s alright.”

Gu Tong was a master at reading and reacting, intentionally provoking Li Yan’s mom for a reason to leave.

This... How can this be...

Li Yan’s mom was startled, quickly saying, ”No, no, you can’t go back...”

Wenjing and Li Yan were still inside the house, and she had no idea how far things had progressed. If Gu Tong went back now, she’d definitely ruin their plans.

”Mom is fine, why can’t I go back?”

Gu Tong asked back, leaving Li Yan’s mom at a loss. She just claimed her health was fine, so she couldn’t lie about it now.

”I said no, so no...” Li Yan’s mom was unreasonable as always, and when she got stubborn, no one could stop her. Today, she was determined to block Gu Tong’s way, convinced she could hold her off for an hour.

Gu Tong squinted slightly, a bad feeling exploding deep inside her.

”I have to get out of the car.”

Li Yan was alone at home, and whatever he was doing, it wasn’t good.

”No way, I’ll die before I let you out, unless you step over my dead body.” Li Yan’s mom was an expert at throwing a fit, clinging tightly to the car door, refusing to let go.

This was Wenjing’s last chance, she absolutely couldn’t let Gu Tong ruin it, absolutely not.

”Last time, move aside!”

Gu Tong was truly angry, a sense of foreboding escalating uncontrollably.

If the woman before her wasn’t Li Yan’s mom, she would have thrown her out already.

”I’d rather die, than let...” The last word ”open” didn’t come out.

Li Yan’s mom’s body fell backward, strong arms yanking open the car door, leaving no room for defense.

”Who is it...”

Li Yan’s mom turned her head in anger, wondering why someone was so oblivious, not seeing that she was guarding the door.

This is...

”Li Yan...”

How could he be here... where’s Wenjing...

”Get out of the car.” Li Yan’s thin lips moved slightly, clearly speaking to Gu Tong.

What’s going on...

Even Gu Tong was a bit confused; she was about to rescue him, yet he got out on his own.

Filled with doubt, she stepped down from the van, immediately noticing the suitcase Li Yan was holding. This is...

”We’re going back.” Li Yan’s eyes, like concealed swords in a tempest, swept over the van, suppressing a beastly rage.

This was his last sentence before leaving, as he held no more attachment to this home.
