Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 910: Chapter 909: Does My Cousin Know Everyone?

”Do you know everyone, cousin?”

Indestructible, impenetrable, difficult to stir.

Chu Xiran found the only breakthrough point that made her utterly thrilled, her mind filled with scenes of Li Yan and Gu Tong having intense arguments, even getting physical, shouting for divorce.

”I know them all!”

With tight defenses, solid walls, impossible to breach.

Li Yan’s method of handling things is simple and brutal.

The excitement from before now starkly contrasts with the current emotion.

As if cast from heaven directly into Hell, and it’s an abyss.

”Make way.”

Just as Chu Xiran hadn’t responded yet.

Li Yan’s impatient voice already echoed in the ears, cradling Gu Tong in a princess carry, disdainfully glaring at Chu Xiran, the subtext being ’you’re in the way’.

Chu Xiran’s profound shame made her feel as if her dignity had been swept away and stomped fiercely. She bit her lip, already tasting the blood.

A once-proud child of heaven, suddenly disregarded, even despised and loathed.

No one could accept this, no matter who it is.

Thousands of questions like ’Why’, ’How come’, ’This isn’t fair’, exploded in her mind.

All the emotions clamoring, nearly causing her to break down.

”Cousin, why are you...” Chu Xiran’s voice quivered with a sob, but she forced herself to hold back, refusing to let tears fall.

Yet, the sentence she mustered all her strength to shout was once more ignored, and all she could see was the silhouette departing in darkness, moving farther until it was out of sight.

Feeling utterly aggrieved, Chu Xiran sat heavily on the couch, letting tears wildly burst forth.

She submitted and lowered herself such, yet he didn’t spare a glance, whereas in Li Yan’s eyes, all he cared about was Gu Tong.

Why? Where am I worse than Gu Tong, Chu Xiran wondered.

This isn’t fair...

...

Beside the railing on the second floor.

Gong Qingwan had long witnessed everything that transpired, her red lips curled upward, a hint of amusement at her lips as she elegantly turned around, strolling leisurely back to her room.

”Madam, shouldn’t you intervene?” Nanny He stood with hands lowered in the room, respectfully inquiring.

Gong Qingwan chuckled softly, raising her hand to pick up the wine bottle from the table, leisurely pouring wine into a goblet, flatly saying, ”Why intervene?”

”Miss Cousin has never been treated like this...” Ignored...

Nanny He swallowed those last words back, not voicing them.

”That girl is cunning, always thinking highly of herself, relying on being a Miss of the Chu Family, my niece from the Li Family, she becomes arrogant, employing petty and lowly tricks, while still smugly complacent, unaware, that those little ploys of hers are beneath my notice.”

In this world, Gong Qingwan trusts no one, including Chu Xiran, the child she personally raised, she doesn’t trust her either.

Gong Qingwan is clearly aware, if she weren’t Mrs. of Li Family, holding substantial power, Chu Xiran wouldn’t bother to curry favor.

To put it more bluntly, if anyone could replace Gong Qingwan’s position, Chu Xiran would betray her without hesitation.

Much like how Chu Xiran treats Li Yan, if Li Yan were willing to offer Chu Xiran a position, she would gladly replace Gong Qingwan.

With Gong Qingwan in a high position, constantly wary, how could she not see through this girl’s scheming.

Thus, step by step, she pushed Chu Xiran deeper until finally, she fell to rock bottom, worth nothing.

”She thinks herself a rare beauty, unaware that compared with power, a pretty face is insignificant, haha—” Gong Qingwan sneered.
