Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 1323: Chapter 1322: Did She Finally Matter?

The switching ’beep’ represented Li Yan’s indifference.

The more afraid Xiao Yu was, the greater the impact that sound had on her.

She instinctively gripped the car handle, fearing that they would throw her out.

”I, I say...”

Xiao Yu’s voice trembled, her emotions on the verge of collapse.

She didn’t dare stop talking.

She didn’t want to get out of the car, didn’t want to return to that hellish place and suffer inhuman torture again.

However, perhaps due to the intensity of her emotions, she couldn’t form a complete sentence, her mouth clinging to the sound ’I, I, I’.

Indeed, it’s too much.

Gu Tong and Li Yan’s lips twitched simultaneously.

Xiao Yu was not a heinous criminal, lacking strong pressure resistance; facing such pressure, she surely couldn’t endure it.

Li Yan was a special trainee. His psychological manipulation and interrogation skills were meant for major criminals. Using them on a little girl like Xiao Yu was indeed a bit too strict.

’Beep--’

The sound of a key press again.

Xiao Yu instinctively shuddered.

However...

The next second, no music played; instead, the music stopped.

The car cabin, once enveloped by beautiful music, suddenly fell silent, leaving only the whistling wind and the faint sound of the engine.

Was she being acknowledged?

Xiao Yu’s sobbing diminished somewhat, yet she still appeared pitiful.

Gu Tong couldn’t bear to watch anymore; she casually picked up a stack of tissues and tossed them onto Xiao Yu’s lap.

Xiao Yu grabbed the tissues messily, wiping her already smudged face, and said in a choked voice, ”I, I say I’m a student, do you believe me?”

Gu Tong cooperatively answered ’Mm.’

Xiao Yu looked young, seemingly of school age.

Xiao Yu blew her nose, hiccupped as she cried, and said, ”My parents are divorced. When I was five, I lived with my dad. My dad sells fried tofu on a snack street. Since childhood, I’ve been running around this street, and most street vendors know me.”

They had heard this from the barbecue shop owner.

However, even knowing this, they didn’t interrupt Xiao Yu but continued listening.

”Over the years, I’ve been with my dad. Life wasn’t luxurious, but it wasn’t bad. My dad put me through school, sent me to a top high school, hoping I’d become a college student and succeed in the future, earn big money. Our plan was good, but in my senior year, the mom I hadn’t seen since I was little suddenly came back and disrupted everything...”

When Xiao Yu was five, her parents had already separated, so she had a shallow impression of her mother. If any impression existed, it was from the annual questions from older relatives during holidays: ’Has your mom come to see you?’.

Of course, the answer each year was ’no’.

Following that, the elder relatives would express their anger: ’Your mom is truly heartless’, ’When you were just five, she abandoned you’, ’She ran off with a man, even left her child. A woman doing this will face consequences later.’

Because of this, Xiao Yu had a poor impression of her mother but thought her dad was too simple and ordinary, unable to handle her mom. Thus, she became a child from a single-parent family.

When she first saw her mom, Xiao Yu was dumbfounded, unable to believe that the elegant woman on the worn-out sofa was calling her ’daughter’.
