Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

”You’re forming a clique!” Fang Liqiang was somewhat displeased. In this situation, forming cliques is basically asking to lose...

”So what if we’re forming a clique! Do you even have a group to join? With your prickly attitude, no wonder nobody wants to help you!” Yuan Jianlan was annoyed at his attacks on Gu Tong, so her words were extremely sharp.

Seeing the tense situation, Geng Yifan stepped in and said, ”Alright, alright, stop arguing. We’re comrades who’ve fought together for three days, we must trust each other with our backs. This is what Officer Lan said, yet before the battle even starts, we’re fighting amongst ourselves...”

The intense atmosphere slightly receded. Geng Yifan sighed and spoke to Gu Tong, ”This is just a misunderstanding. Don’t take it to heart. Everyone is just anxious for the team’s victory, there’s no malice.”

”A misunderstanding?” Gu Tong chuckled lightly, but showed no emotion. Even if Geng Yifan wanted to smooth things over, she didn’t intend to let it go. ”Do you think there’s an error in my analysis?”

She shifted her focus to Fang Liqiang and Shang Qimin.

”Yes, there’s a problem!” Fang Liqiang was still upset.

”I think the combat strategy shouldn’t be taken so lightly.” Shang Qimin remained rational.

”You can think there’s an issue with my combat strategy because on the battlefield, nothing is absolute! But given the current situation, you must admit there’s no better solution. If we don’t run, we’ll be attacked by the enemy. You both agree on that, right?”

Both of them fell silent, as that was indeed the truth.

”But ambush isn’t the only way out.” Fang Liqiang stubbornly persisted.

”Of course! We still have the option to break through their encirclement, but unfortunately, we don’t have much time because we’ve wasted ten minutes arguing, and now the enemy is fully prepared for battle.”

She was right...

Everyone acknowledged her point.

”But that doesn’t mean ambush is our only way out.” Fang Liqiang stubbornly insisted, ”Without guarantees, I don’t dare to risk it!”

”You...” Yuan Jianlan was furious, almost wanting to rush over and hit him.

Gu Tong reached out to stop Yuan Jianlan’s actions, calmly said, ”Fang Liqiang, right!” Her eyes were like daggers, seemingly wanting to pierce through him.

Fang Liqiang, meeting such eyes, instinctively felt a bit scared. He swallowed and said, ”Yes...”

”How about this, shall we make a bet?”

”Bet on what?” Fang Liqiang braced himself.

”We’ll bet on whether this ambush can take down an enemy squad. If I lose, regardless of the outcome, I will voluntarily accept a zero score!”

Zero score...

That would mean admitting defeat directly, and also not being able to enter the Specialty Pavilion Academy...

”No, Gu Tong...” Yuan Jianlan hurriedly stopped her. On the battlefield, anything can happen. How can you make such a wager?

Gu Tong patted her hand, signaling her to be at ease, then glanced sideways at Fang Liqiang, ”Do you dare to bet?”

”Why wouldn’t I! If you win the bet, I’ll also voluntarily accept a zero score!” He, a man, couldn’t lose to a female trainee.

”No need! How about this, if you lose, you’ll follow my command on the battlefield without any objections. How about that?” Gu Tong wasn’t ruthless; she couldn’t ruin a trainee’s future out of anger, so she generously offered a different condition.

”Fine! Who’s afraid of who!”

It’s just following orders. If he lost, even if it meant serving her tea, washing clothes, and doing laundry, he’d do it without hesitation! Indeed, youthful arrogance. In the not-too-distant future, Fang Liqiang would regret his current thinking. But that’s a story for another time.
