Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 991: Chapter 990: I’m Sorry, Han Shang

Gu Tong, after living two lifetimes, the person she feels most sorry toward is Han Shang.

She once hurt him, deceived him, and destroyed his home.

And he simply chose to banish her.

He erased all traces of her from the Sicuro Mafia.

Gu Tong’s heart felt like it had been hit by a hammer as she said, ”Han Shang... why is he in Longxing Country...”

Han Shang should have never left the Sicuro Mafia, yet at this time, he left Country Y and came to Longxing Country.

Considering his current identity, this is undoubtedly dangerous...

”That’s why I came to find you. I think you need to know about him.”

Xia Xi knew the relationship between Gu Tong and Han Shang. They were once friends who talked about everything.

Countless times, during slaughters, Han Shang shielded Gu Tong from attacks; in numerous wars, Gu Tong would heal Han Shang’s injuries.

Their relationship was so close that they shared everything...

In fact, if Gu Tong hadn’t had a husband, even Xia Xi would have thought they were a couple.

”I’m sorry, Han Shang.”

Gu Tong did not shy away from the topic.

She also admitted that she indeed hurt Han Shang, even nearly killed him!

All of it, all kindness, was always with an ulterior motive, all to deceive for her husband’s revenge.

Han Shang became a victim of Qiu Xue’s lies, and she, indeed because of those lies, became the culprit entangling the innocent.

”You had no choice.” Xia Xi understood Gu Tong’s situation, so offered her some comfort.

Gu Tong understood Xia Xi’s thoughts but didn’t say more and instead said, ”Does he have dealings with Gong Chenli?”

She finally understood Xia Xi’s purpose. If there’s no mistake, Xia Xi’s aim this time also involved Gong Chenli.

”Exactly.” Xia Xi said resolutely, ”I am sure that Han Shang is involved in something unspeakable with Gong Chenli. However, my abilities are limited. I could only take a few photos and was unable to overhear their conversations, so I know nothing more.”

Gu Tong took a sip of tea and said, ”You’re afraid Gong Chenli will make the same mistakes again, so you want to stop him?”

”That’s one reason!” Xia Xi did not deny it.

Gu Tong put down her teacup and asked, ”What’s the second reason?”

Xia Xi folded her hands and said, ”When we were at Xinyuan, Han Shang spoke to me as if he was very familiar with me. In the afternoon, he talked with Gong Chenli, and in the evening, Gong Chenli asked me if the name Xue Tong was something you came up with casually.”

’Crack—’

Gu Tong’s teacup slipped from her hand and shattered on the ground. She stared wide-eyed and said, ”Do you mean that Han Shang is also reborn...”

”It’s a possibility we cannot rule out.” Xia Xi furrowed her brows and said, ”In the evening, I tentatively asked Gong Chenli about it, and he told me that Han Shang is looking for a woman named Xue Tong. But rest assured, Gong Chenli hasn’t exposed your identity, so you are temporarily safe.”

Han Shang is looking for a woman named Xue Tong...

Gu Tong shuddered.

Xia Xi asked, ”So, that’s why I’m here to find you. I want to ask, have you had any contact with the Sicuro Mafia this time?”

Contact...?

Of course, I have!

Gu Tong sighed, not hiding anything, and said, ”I once encountered Beckett from the Sicuro Mafia. He is Han Shang’s trainee team captain. In the previous life, he was executed because of the August Family’s affairs. That time, I stopped him and lied, saying I was a friend of the little boss!”

Xia Xi stared wide-eyed and said, ”You actually exposed yourself...”
