Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 876: Chapter 875: Striking a Stone with an Egg

These were almost exactly Li Yan’s words.

They plunged Chu Xiran into an icy cave once more, her body unbearably cold, tightly clenching her pink fists.

Why...

These three words exploded in her heart!

A pearl loved like a treasure, while the other treated like discarded footwear, not even worthy of a glance. They were both women, both standing in the rain, how could there be such a huge difference?

Chu Xiran had always thought highly of herself, considering herself the darling of heaven for years, yet just a moment ago, it seemed as if Li Yan had slapped her hard, erasing all her pride.

”Cousin Miss, I came late...”

Aunt He held an umbrella, running all the way, arriving in front of Chu Xiran, wiping the fine raindrops from her forehead, saying, ”The rain is so heavy, none of us at home realized, are you cold, Miss?”

”No.”

Chu Xiran’s face was gloomy, her teeth clenched tightly, she glanced at Aunt He and said nonchalantly, ”Are Brother Li and Sister-in-law always so loving?”

Aunt He was an old hand in the Li Family, some things couldn’t escape her eyes, Chu Xiran was smart enough to know who to ask about these matters.

Aunt He lowered her eyelids, chuckled lightly, ”Yes, they’re very loving, in all my years in the household, I’ve never seen any Young Master and Young Madam so close, almost as if they were one person.”

Aunt He wasn’t speaking nonsense, she had factual evidence for this.

Gu Tong and Li Yan were indeed very close.

Anyone with eyes could understand the relationship between the two of them.

”How long do you think their love will last?”

Such a difficult question was thrown at Aunt He, but Chu Xiran didn’t think she was being difficult at all.

Perhaps due to a slight imbalance within her, she always hoped Aunt He could give her a different answer.

”It’s hard to say...” Aunt He coughed awkwardly, ”In the household, anything can happen, if the Eldest Young Master encounters someone good, charming, and gets his eyes dazzled, maybe their relationship won’t be so good anymore...”

Aunt He had seen a lot, her insight even surpassed that of ordinary madams.

The things she said were all based on experience.

If it weren’t for this, Chu Xiran wouldn’t have chosen to ask Aunt He.

However, Aunt He’s answer greatly dissatisfied Chu Xiran.

Good, charming, dazzled the Eldest Young Master’s eyes! So, she’s not even as good as Gu Tong now! Why would Aunt He think she’s not good, not charming, and how is she worse than Gu Tong!

Chu Xiran clenched her fists, her nails were deeply embedded into her palms, an inexplicable anger simmering, unable to be quenched over time.

Thinking of this, she simply became annoyed.

She snatched the umbrella from Aunt He’s hand, covering her head.

”Aunt is still waiting for me, so I’ll head back first.”

Chu Xiran left these words on the ground, then ignoring Aunt He’s fate, she walked away on her high heels.

Her steps were heavy, as if she wished she could stomp all the disregard, contempt, and affection to pieces.

”Cousin, Cousin Miss... take care...”

Aunt He hadn’t even reacted when the umbrella was already taken, but since Chu Xiran was her superior, she couldn’t say much, only giving a polite farewell.

Actually...

Aunt He naturally knew what she wanted to hear, she just thought there was no need to say it.

Moreover, for her to stay in the Li Family for so many years, she certainly had her own capital, nothing a Cousin Miss could shake.

As for Chu Xiran’s thoughts, Aunt He had long seen through them.

Aunt He knew how to pick her side, but she would definitely not side with Chu Xiran, because that was simply hitting a stone with an egg!
