Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 238: 238: Go ahead, trust me.

”You’re really a trainee...”

Huang Shou thought the possibility of her being a trainee was extremely high, but he wasn’t sure! He originally thought Gu Tong would keep her identity hidden! He never expected her to admit it directly!

”I’m sorry, Brother Huang Shou! I deceived you, but the situation was special, and I had no choice... Plus, I never expected you to have connections with them...”

Everything was an accident, Gu Tong didn’t know the developments of this timeline and had no ability to see the future!

”I don’t blame you...”

Huang Shou forcibly digested all this and expressed his thoughts, ”I didn’t help you with anything. Instead, I brought you trouble. I never expected the security to be so tight now, and to get into such trouble! If I’d known earlier, I would never have taken you up the mountain!”

Gu Tong knew in her heart that Huang Shou was telling the truth. In these days of interaction, she could feel that Huang Shou was not a bad person.

”It was me who wanted to go up the mountain; you’re lucky to have been able to take me up there!” Gu Tong said simply, before getting back on track, ”Why did they want to capture you?”

This was the biggest mystery in front of her and also crucial.

”Because I’m Zhou Li’s person!”

First, he’s with Fifth Lord, then he’s Zhou Li’s person. Gu Tong felt tangled with these complicated relationships.

”These things are too complicated, hard to explain briefly. Just know, if it weren’t for Zhou Li, I would definitely not be doing these dealings with them!”

”Seems like you’re quite important among them.” Judging by Chuan Er’s attitude, it wasn’t hard for her to discern a thing or two.

”Of course I’m important. Ha, they don’t have the heart to lose me! They still want to use my skills to keep providing analysis charts for them. Without me, their technology would regress five years!”

Gu Tong was completely shocked!

Yet she suddenly could understand Chuan Er’s purpose behind his actions.

Why he would unhesitatingly disable Tie San’s hand, and why he’d give Huang Shou special treatment!

It all made sense now; a cash cow must be well-treated!

”But it’s better now! Zhou Li has run away, and I can go on strike too!”

Huang Shou chuckled coldly but felt relieved, continuing, ”Missy! Your officer ran off with Zhou Li; no need to think—they’re certainly together now! If you trust me, why not come with me to find them?”

Gu Tong didn’t answer immediately; it’s not that she didn’t want to agree, it was just that everything was too late...

The trainee hunters were about to close in! She and Huang Shou had nowhere to escape; when the time came, forget about finding someone, it would be hard to even save themselves!

Gu Tong lowered her eyes and urged, ”Brother Huang Shou! Tell me about Fifth Lord and Zhou Li, make it quick and concise!”

”What...” Huang Shou was taken aback for a moment.

”Speak up, trust me!”

Time was tight; they needed to make every second count. Everything Gu Tong did was for their escape route!

Huang Shou’s face turned serious; this issue was significant, and he needed to weigh it. Besides, Gu Tong had deceived him once, and he didn’t dare to trust easily!

”If they catch up, we’ll be doomed! This is our only way to survive!”

This was their last hope, but also the last straw that broke the camel’s back!

Huang Shou gritted his teeth and hardened his heart!

Why not go all in!

If death is the outcome, it’s better to speak up than to bottle it up and be restless even in the underworld!
