Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 935: Chapter 934: So What If She’s the Family Head’s Wife?

”Aunt Gong is the head mistress of the Li Family, how can you say that about her!”

Qiao Sisi spoke too much and left a loophole in her words.

Gu Tong didn’t hesitate and directly countered, ”What about being the head mistress? Just because she’s the head mistress, do we have to forget who our mother is?”

”You!!!” Qiao Sisi widened her eyes, not expecting her to be so sharp-tongued.

Gu Tong showed no mercy and attacked again, ”One should never forget one’s original intention and must not forget one’s roots. That’s what being principled is about. As for the stepmother, we juniors should respect her and call her the second wife, which is only proper. There’s nothing disrespectful about it. However, we can’t because of respect completely forget the fundamentals and the ethical relations by calling randomly, can we? Isn’t that putting the cart before the horse?”

Qiao Sisi felt at a disadvantage, she bit her lip and said, ”But even so, you shouldn’t treat Xinxin like that. She reached out to befriend you, yet you treated a little girl with such a cold attitude, isn’t that too much?”

Gu Tong’s lips curved into a slight smile, ”Miss Qiao, you’re mistaken again. Since there’s no relation between us, why should I pay attention to people who question me for no reason? If she calls me cousin-in-law, do I really become one? That would be strange. There’s a saying, ’Do not impose on others what you yourself do not desire.’ If I called Miss Qiao ’sister-in-law’, you probably wouldn’t like it either, right? Can you really become my sister-in-law?”

Qiao Sisi stomped her foot angrily, ”What nonsense are you talking!”

This was simply twisting concepts.

Gu Tong was already married, while Qiao Sisi was still an unmarried young lady, essential differences existed between them.

Moreover, Gu Tong had already learned from Li Yan that someone would seek her information, so she deliberately didn’t respond when Gong Xinxin called her.

”I’m not speaking nonsense,” Gu Tong shrugged her shoulders with a smile, ”I’m merely stating facts and explaining to Miss Qiao.”

Qiao Sisi pressed on step by step, while Gu Tong went with the flow, conveniently ’explaining’ a bit.

Openly and secretly mocking Qiao Sisi for meddling, she even pointed out Gong Qingwan’s purpose!

”You’re simply outrageous!” Qiao Sisi clenched her fists, her anger already at its peak, ready to explode, ”Get out, get out!”

The original intention to use Gu Tong to create an image collapsed.

Almost costing her own reputation...

Qiao Sisi was furious, her temper as a young lady flaring completely, angrily wanting to drive Gu Tong out.

As soon as her words fell, everyone felt a bit tense, casting their eyes on Gu Tong to see how she would respond.

Gu Tong had long wanted to leave; she was just ten minutes short. Leaving now was not the time.

Her lips curved, speaking calmly, ”Are you representing the Zhao Family to drive me out?”

With this question, the conflict escalated again.

The originally simple matter was no longer just a conflict between Qiao Sisi and Gu Tong, but turned into a problem between the Zhao Family and Gu Tong.

Gu Tong wanted to see if Qiao Sisi could make decisions on behalf of the Zhao Family.

”As the future granddaughter-in-law of the Zhao Family, I have the right to drive you out!”

The old lady of the Zhao Family had long promised Qiao Sisi a lot.

Openly and secretly, she undoubtedly acknowledged her identity as a granddaughter-in-law.

Though Qiao Sisi didn’t expressly call herself the Zhao Family’s granddaughter-in-law, her actions implied it in many ways.

But now.

The paper window was completely pierced; she admitted it.

...

Not far away.

Zhao Xiangyun was getting anxious and exclaimed, ”Oh no, this silly girl...”

How could she say such a thing at this moment?

Not to mention how Gu Tong is, but she ultimately represents the Li Family. This is putting the Li Family in a difficult position.
