Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 1481: Chapter 1480: They Are Like Grasshoppers Tied to the Same Rope

But why tell Gu Tong.

Two people who wouldn’t normally cross paths, what kind of connection and entanglement could they have.

They even brought in the word ’hate’!

Li Yan couldn’t figure it out at all, nor could he understand it in the slightest.

However, he knew the little woman, the little woman had something on her mind, a knot, although he didn’t know exactly what it was, he knew that this matter was affecting her.

It’s like the dream she once talked about, it sounds completely unfounded, yet she cares deeply.

Everything ultimately becomes a kind of void, Li Yan can’t decipher it, feeling more and more puzzled.

Li Yan thought about this, and then suddenly remembered Gong Chenli.

Perhaps, he should go and have a chat with Gong Chenli.

In a sense, they are grasshoppers tied to the same rope, allies in name!

After figuring all this out, Li Yan was finally ready to sleep.

However, it was a sleepless night, and he slept very restlessly.

...

Gu Tong, on the other hand, slept soundly.

Slept straight through until ten.

She opened her eyes, Li Yan had already gone to work.

The bedroom was left with just herself.

This often happened; she was already used to it.

Thinking about this, Gu Tong lazily yawned, not knowing why, even though she had woken up, she still felt very sleepy.

’Ring ring ring--’

Her phone buzzed on the bedside table.

Gu Tong glanced at it, seeing Xia Xi’s name, she raised an eyebrow, answered the call, and said, ”Hello!”

”Xue Tong, something bad happened... Li Yan came to my house, he’s talking to the Demon King now...”

Li Yan went to Xia Xi’s house?

Gu Tong sat up with a thump, and asked, ”When did this happen?”

Xia Xi thought for a moment and said, ”It was at dawn, he came to my house to discuss further business cooperation. We had already talked about it, but he insisted on asking continuously. I got annoyed, so I called Gong Chenli out, but who knew, they went to the room to chat and have been there since...”

Gu Tong stared in disbelief, and said, ”After so long, why are you only calling me now!”

Xia Xi also stared, and said, ”You think I didn’t want to? My phone is in the room, and I didn’t dare use the house phone to call you, afraid of surveillance!”

Gu Tong paused, and asked, ”Then how did you get your phone out?”

Xia Xi replied, ”I sent the housekeeper to get it, saying there was a work issue to handle. I made up an excuse and got it back.”

So quick...

Gu Tong paused for a moment, and asked, ”Why was your phone in the room?”

Xia Xi blinked and said, ”The Demon King said he needed to use it, took it to the room, hung up and threw it in there, then Li Yan came in, could it be...”

Xia Xi suddenly realized what was happening.

All this time, her phone was in the room.

If that’s the case...

Xia Xi quickly ran to the computer, taking just about three steps, she pressed a few keys, and the screen switched to the room’s surveillance.

But now!

The room was empty.

”Damn...” Xia Xi cursed, and said, ”They set us up, we...”

Gu Tong held her head, and said, ”Stop talking...”

That’s right.

Stop talking for now.

Her phone could very likely have been bugged, their conversation had probably been overheard long ago.

If that’s the case...

Gu Tong was taken aback, paused and said, ”Let’s meet at the usual place.”
