Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart-Chapter 780 - 779: Enjoy yourself for a few years.

’Click, click--’

The sound of high heels striking the stairs.

The first thing that caught the eye was a gracefully elegant modified qipao embroidered with a pear blossom pattern.

Gong Qingwan, naturally beautiful and charming, wore a deceitful faint smile on her red lips, saying, "Old Cheng, why are you making such a racket early in the morning?"

Although she was reprimanding Old Cheng, she was actually using a veiled insult to criticize Gu Tong for causing trouble, forcing her to come down early.

Gu Tong sat on the sofa, smiling broadly, watching Old Cheng, waiting for his response. She appeared entirely clueless, with no intention of getting involved, as if it had nothing to do with her.

Old Cheng cleared his throat and said, "Madam, the Eldest Young Master and the Young Madam have returned."

"The Eldest Young Master has returned, why didn’t anyone tell me?" Gong Qingwan walked down the stairs with smooth, light steps, her bright eyes meeting the lowered head of Li Yan, smiling as she said, "Eldest Young Master, you are finally back. I’ve been so worried all these years."

Worried?

More like happy, perhaps?

"Thinking that Madam’s health isn’t good, and she finally got some sleep, it’s better to let her rest. The Eldest Young Master is young, and there are plenty of days ahead, so we didn’t disturb." He Ma came out slowly from behind, looking entirely willing to serve, assisting Gong Qingwan to sit down.

Gong Qingwan elegantly seated herself on the sofa, reaching out to take the tea on the table, smiling lightly, "The Eldest Young Master’s return is a significant event."

It seemed she was very pleased with what He Ma said, directly raising her own status, indirectly telling Li Yan that no matter what, she is always his elder, the lady of the Li Family!

"Is the ’Second’ Madam not feeling well?"

Gu Tong spoke up, sounding quite concerned.

Yet with just this one sentence, the air in the room froze.

Gong Qingwan’s slender fingers trembled before touching the teacup, her pupils contracted, and she subconsciously bit her lips.

The title ’Second Madam,’ long unheard, this Feng family’s young lady truly has courage! 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

He Ma trembled slightly, then quickly tried to salvage the situation by saying, "The Madam has worked hard for the Li Family for many years, putting in a lot of effort, so it’s inevitable that her health can’t keep up."

"Oh, so that’s how it is." Gu Tong nodded, saying, "Tomorrow, I’ll send some bird’s nest to the ’Second’ Madam to nourish and take care of her health."

Upon saying this, she turned and patted Li Yan’s knee, her eyes unable to hide her smile, and said, "You, not knowing your status all these years, certainly have made the ’Second’ Madam suffer. Now that you’re back, you should work hard on the family’s business to relieve the ’Second’ Madam’s stress!"

Addressing her repeatedly as ’Second Madam,’ Gong Qingwan’s face had already turned extremely unpleasant. The anger she had been suppressing was just re-ignited by Gu Tong’s second remark.

"The Eldest Young Master is still young; it’s time to enjoy life for a few more years."

Relieve her? What a joke.

There is no reason for the Li Family she worked so hard to seize power in to be taken away by a little bastard.

Is the claim to inheritance sought right upon returning? The Feng family’s daughter really has quite some skills.

"To establish a family and career, that’s the age-old principle. Li Yan has already established a family, so he should also establish a career. Besides, filial piety is paramount; the ’Second’ Madam isn’t in good health, we can’t just let you suffer so much!"

Gu Tong, aggressive as ever, once again uttered a phrase that left Gong Qingwan with no room for refusal.
