Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 1227: Chapter 1226: Xia Xi, You Jerk!

”Switch?” Xue Tong didn’t care at all, nor did she feel there was any problem. She spoke flatly, with no waves in her tone: ”Whatever!”

...

Memory withdrew and returned.

Gu Tong’s body was somewhat unstable. She leaned against the wall, her hand holding the phone trembled slightly, and she said, ”Xia Xi! You troublesome person!”

Switch, switch my foot!

Her past self was so accustomed to Xia Xi, she would switch whenever Xia Xi said so...

In this life, it’s the same, in the end, she still got herself into trouble...

Gu Tong regretted it deeply, wishing she could pull Xia Xi over and give her a good beating.

Xia Xi wasn’t a fool either, she also noticed the strangeness, her mouth twitched twice, and she said, ”Did we get it reversed...”

Actually, in their past lives, Gu Tong walked through the Life Gate while Xia Xi walked through the Death Gate. In this life, they completely swapped, getting it entirely reversed.

”...” Thank you for reminding me, we indeed reversed it.

Gu Tong covered her forehead, feeling speechless.

Given the current situation, they couldn’t get out, nor could they reverse the order, they could only continue down the wrong path.

Xia Xi was on the verge of tears and said, ”Wah wah, it’s all your fault for being so stubborn. If we had discussed a bit longer, maybe there wouldn’t be so many issues...”

”...” It’s true, but back then, Gu Tong recalled how cheesy Xia Xi behaved, thinking it would only delay them, so in this life, she didn’t want to experience that again, hence she made a swift decision.

Ultimately, both sides were at fault, no point in blaming each other.

Xia Xi pouted and said, ”So what do we do now?”

They took opposite paths from their past lives, making it impossible to predict the path ahead. Now, the real unraveling began.

Gu Tong pursed her lips and said, ”How long can the phone battery last?”

Xia Xi thought for a moment and said, ”I prepared six spare batteries, three to four days shouldn’t be a problem.”

Preparing so many batteries, this girl was still clever, not just good at acting cute.

Gu Tong said flatly, ”Let’s talk as we walk, describe what we see to each other, for now we can only rely on the phone to solve problems.”

Currently, there was no better way, the phone was their only means of communication.

Xia Xi nodded in agreement and said, ”What’s the situation on your side?”

They were both in the dark about the road ahead, having no clue what would happen next, communication was their only option.

Gu Tong focused on the bronze figures ahead, describing them to Xia Xi, ”I just entered the Death Gate, it’s a corridor, and ahead a row of bronze figures block the path, there’s no walkway, the leading figures have expressions of joy, anger, sorrow, and pleasure!”

Xia Xi’s hand holding the phone trembled slightly, her pupils contracted, and she said, ”Joy, anger, sorrow, and pleasure...”

In her mind echoed eerie laughter, accompanied by mournful cries, and she quickly shouted, ”Be wary of these bronze figures, they can move!”

The bronze figures can move.

This was simply too fantastical.

It was beyond reason.

At the same time, Gu Tong immediately looked at the bases of the bronze figures to check if they were separate.

The floor and the bases of the bronze figures were tightly connected, without the slightest gap, how could such bronze figures move!

As Gu Tong was pondering, her pupils contracted and she said, ”Mist Smoke...”

Smoky fog continuously wafted out from tiny, almost invisible gaps beneath the bronze figures, if not observed carefully, it would be impossible to notice.
