Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 253: 253: The one with the darkest heart is you

They are now eager to know how this god-like Royal Doctor managed to bring the second-in-command of Taiping Mountain here in chains, and even forcibly treated his hand...

No matter how they imagine it, they could never guess that the real story is that Tie San begged Gu Tong to treat him!

”Your mission is to kill Chuan Er! Stop doing these pointless things!”

Zhao Yong hadn’t forgotten what Gu Tong instructed, and forced himself to say this naturally!

Had it not been for fearing that other trainees might not perform well on the spot, he wouldn’t have come in person. But now, it seems his choice was very correct, as the other trainees were already shocked beyond measure, unable to say a complete sentence.

”Chuan Er stepped on Zhou Li to rise to power, so someone needs to replace him!”

Gu Tong wiped the surgical knife, speaking calmly and orderly, ”I think this Tie San is not bad, a good candidate! If Chuan Er is eliminated, Tie San could take over his position – after all, he’s an acquaintance, and even Lord Wu can rest assured, right?”

”Tie San?” Zhao Yong frowned and said, ”We don’t really know the details about Taiping Mountain! Don’t make decisions for Lord Wu on your own; if this Tie San turns out to be a scoundrel, it would be a loss!”

A clear reminder, yet an explanation, because Gu Tong couldn’t grasp their relationship. If the conversation had errors, it would expose their identities.

It’s better to directly change it to an employment relationship; they are only here to kill Chuan Er and aren’t aware of other matters. This way, Gu Tong’s motives have a perfect explanation! It’s truly seamless, leaving no loopholes whatsoever.

”Who cares what he is! Zhou Li can’t be used, and Chuan Er has ambitions too wild. Lord Wu may have handed over this business to us, but we don’t really understand the core of Taiping Mountain. Two people from Taiping Mountain have been taken out consecutively, both by Lord Wu’s hand, and this Tie San won’t trust Lord Wu either!”

Zhao Yong’s frown did not relax as he said, ”Then according to your idea...”

”In this territory, we need Lord Wu; on other docks, who will recognize him? As long as we take this load of Artifact Fire and retreat, how much profit we get is ours to enjoy! Similarly, I have this plan for Tie San as well; he’s been with Chuan Er for a long time and understands the process!”

”If he’s willing and wants to work with us, why shouldn’t we take over directly? I’m not ruthless; giving him a share wouldn’t be difficult! This bandit business is all for the money, gathered by interest!”

”I think the most ruthless heart is yours!” Zhao Yong finally took back the Artifact Fire, knowing his goal had been achieved.

They’ve said so much in conversation, and if he still couldn’t understand Gu Tong’s purpose, it would be a wasted life, a wasted stint as a special trainee...

”It’s better than Lord Wu; Chuan Er knows too many of his secrets! To protect himself, he wants to root out the problem! In the same way, he would eventually treat us like that too.”

Gu Tong always did what was fitting for her position, and even if it was acting, she performed truthfully, even persuading Zhao Yong to abandon Lord Wu and go independent with her.

Zhao Yong almost got carried away by her but didn’t forget his own purpose, saying, ”Our mission is to kill Chuan Er; the rest is secondary. After we get that batch of goods, we can think about how to divide the loot!”

”Of course!” Even if Gu Tong is ’ruthless,’ she hasn’t forgotten the goal of killing Chuan Er.
