Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 1282: Chapter 1281: So It Really Was a Plot

This isn’t really the Devil King’s style.

After all, the Devil King is an extremely serious person, no matter what position he’s in, he always does his utmost to do things perfectly, with the posture of a workaholic.

Li Yan raised an eyebrow, his tone was cold and emotionless, ”Intuition!”

Certain Deputy: ”...” So... you kicked her out just based on intuition...

Li Yan held a pen, writing as he spoke, ”Since I took office, she’s bumped into me three times, dampened my suit twice, and using business affairs as an excuse to visit the office eight times. I think she’s suspicious!”

The Deputy couldn’t help but become serious as well; if the Devil King hadn’t mentioned it, he wouldn’t have realized that since the Devil King took office, such things indeed never seem to end...

Even he is unwilling to believe it’s all coincidence.

The Deputy thought for a moment and said, ”Then why would she do such a thing...”

Randomly rushing at the Devil King, this is somewhat inexplicable, right?

Li Yan’s thin lips parted, ”Is it that hard to guess?”

Is it that hard to guess...

The Deputy’s emotional intelligence finally came online; he couldn’t help but recall how Qiao Yangrou’s face resembled the lady’s, and said, ”Could it be...” she wants to use the beauty trick...

Li Yan quickly replied, ”Obviously, she wants to set me up!”

The Deputy: ”...” Set up...

Uh...

Using a beauty trick can be considered a form of setting someone up.

The Deputy thought to himself.

Li Yan finally finished approving this report; he put down his pen and said, ”Looking at her, she doesn’t seem like she knows martial arts, so there’s no assassination or harming behavior! The ways she can do anything in a company are just those types involving business, so I need to guard against her!”

The Deputy: ”...” When the Devil King says setup, he really means setup...

Why does he feel like the development of this doesn’t quite fit...

That Director Qiao Yangrou should be more focused on winning the Devil King’s heart, how could she do something so foolish?

The Deputy coughed and said, ”Um... General Manager, don’t you think she really resembles the lady...” As a deputy, this was as far as he dared to imply.

If his guess was correct, this should also be Gong Qingwan’s tactic, placing someone with a similar personality and appearance as the lady beside the Devil King, constantly by his ear, and over time, it’s inevitable the Devil King might be moved...

Li Yan furrowed his brows in mild surprise, ”Where’s the resemblance?”

Where’s the resemblance...

That face, personality...

They’re quite similar, right?

The Deputy scratched his head, ”It’s hard to say, just feels there’s some resemblance, when Director Qiao came in earlier, I almost mistook her for the lady... Even the way she talks is somewhat similar, but lacks the lady’s sharpness...”

Li Yan glanced at him calmly, ”No feeling!”

”...” The Deputy sensed his Duke’s silent glance, containing so much meaning, yet inclined to send him to the ophthalmologist...

The Deputy’s mouth twitched, ”Really quite similar... The appearance is also similar, just this indescribable feeling...”

Actually, Qiao Yangrou does really resemble Gu Tong somewhat, especially in the eyes area, the occasional expressions, and the tone of speech, unconsciously sharing similarities with Gu Tong; if it wasn’t the case, the Deputy wouldn’t be mistaken at first glance.
