Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

’Knock, knock, knock--’

Hao Jiale raised her hand and politely knocked a few times first.

The director’s office on the fifth floor of Building Three was not her uncle’s private office, but a place where many directors and deputy directors gathered to work together. Because of this, there were many more formalities to observe.

”Come in!”

A woman’s low voice came through, clearly busy with something.

’Creak--’ The door opened a small crack.

Hao Jiale walked in first, scanned the office, and finding no sign of Director Hao, her uncle, she said, ”Report, Director, I’m here to bring the new student to enroll.”

”New student?” The female director adjusted her black-framed glasses and, through the gap, vaguely saw Gu Tong behind Hao Jiale, saying, ”There haven’t been any student transfers recently. Are you sure you meant our Academy?”

Gu Tong let out a slightly awkward laugh. Earlier, Hao Jiale had called her junior sister too naturally, so she had accepted it accordingly, almost forgetting that this time she was reporting not as a student but in a different capacity.

Hao Jiale also turned her head slightly, puzzled as her gaze fell on the documents in Gu Tong’s hand.

The conversation in the office attracted the attention of others at their desks. Under the gazes of everyone, Gu Tong pulled out a dossier from the folder, unwrapping the white string around it, and extracted a stack of documents.

”This is my employment dossier.”

The difference between employment and enrollment is just a single character, but the meanings are worlds apart.

The female director blankly stared at the dossier in front of her, taking a while to come to her senses: ”You, you are the teacher assigned by the Academy for battlefield trauma, maxillofacial surgery, and field surgery courses?”

Previously, the director had heard from the principal that a particularly qualified female Baron was being sent by the Academy to teach these three subjects.

These three subjects were not as specialized at the National Medical College as they were at the First Royal Medical College, so within the Academy, they were always treated as electives, not core subjects.

Although they are still elective now, inviting a professional teacher this time allows for direct instruction, which could improve teaching quality and disseminate special wartime knowledge and experience to students.

The female director remembered the principal’s enthusiastic and joyful demeanor when talking about this, showing the delight of welcoming new talent.

However, despite this...

The female director never expected that the teacher would be so young.

”Yes.”

Gu Tong replied calmly.

As her words landed, the entire office fell silent, everyone focusing on this woman in her early twenties, unable to connect her with words like ”professional” and ”experienced.”

They all suspected, wondering if there was a mistake...

”You, you are the teacher...” Hao Jiale’s eyes widened, unable to believe that someone about her age was the teacher for three niche subjects at the school...

”Sort of.”

Gu Tong pursed her lips and responded, ”I have no teaching experience, so I don’t consider myself a teacher.”

Female Director: ”...”

Other directors in the office: ”...”

Listening to those words, it sounded more like being forced into it, raising doubts about its reliability...

The language of Longxing Country is profound and can bear multiple meanings in one sentence. While the teachers heard it as an explanation, to Hao Jiale, it sounded awkward and displeasing.

After all, having called her ’junior sister’ all the way here, only to find out she was actually her teacher, anyone would feel deceived.

Hao Jiale bit her lip and said nothing further, taking out the boxed meal she brought for Director Hao and placing it on his desk, saying, ”This is for Director Hao, please hand it over, Director Ye!” With that, she left directly.
