Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 1052 - 1051: You’d Definitely Look Handsome

Unknowingly, a day had quietly passed.Upstairs, Ding Suzhu was still staring at the screen. Ma Zongyu was anxiously waiting for Ding Caiyan’s arrival. Everything was proceeding according to Xia Xi’s plan, naturally, without any noticeable flaws.

Gu Tong sat in the car, feeling a tightness in her chest, as if something was stuck there, making it hard to breathe.

She tugged at her collar and unbuttoned two buttons.

Xia Xi, sitting in the passenger seat, arrogantly said, "I have a feeling you’d look really handsome in men’s clothes~"

Gu Tong raised an eyebrow: "..." Your thought process is jumping a bit too fast, I can barely keep up with the pace.

Xia Xi, who originally said she’d see her off downstairs, was unexpectedly reluctant to leave and insisted on staying in the car with her for a while. They sat in the car in silent companionship, and Xia Xi unexpectedly blurted out this strange statement.

Gu Tong’s mouth twitched, somewhat speechless, and she said, "In the past, when on a mission, it’s not like I never wore them."

Back in the days at the Sicuro Mafia, they had tried all sorts of disguises.

Wearing men’s clothes was nothing; they had even disguised as old women or beggars by the roadside.

Back then, disguise was considered a basic survival skill they had to master.

Disguises...

Xia Xi chuckled softly, "Time passes, and memories fade."

It was unclear if she genuinely forgot or was deliberately reminding Gu Tong that some things could be forgotten too.

Her words carried an inexplicable depth.

Gu Tong lowered her eyelids and said calmly, "As children, we speak without filter, full of innocence and joy, but as we grow, those past things become harder to remember."

She was indirectly rejecting Xia Xi’s reminder, and added, "In my past life, I was a sinner, having made too many mistakes, even I can’t forget them."

Gu Tong was in a rare good mood, even feeling inclined to discuss her past sins leisurely, including the destruction of her family and similar events.

The past is something she couldn’t forget...

And even harder to let go of.

Gu Tong hadn’t said much.

Yet Xia Xi listened, stunned, and after what seemed a long time, she finally shouted, "You said... you knelt to that little bitch... that’s impossible, absolutely impossible! That’s not you!"

Damn, if that really happened, then hell must have frozen over!

Given Gu Tong’s indomitable personality, how could she have done such a thing!

Gu Tong calmly said, "Nothing is impossible!" So, please don’t make excuses for her; wrong is wrong!

Xia Xi didn’t expect Gu Tong to be so stubborn, she widened her eyes and said, "Alright! Then tell me, that day, what did that little bitch say to you?"

Ha!

What was said was nothing but half-hearted words!

Gu Tong remembered it clearly.

Xia Xi pressed on, "What kind of clothes was that little bitch wearing that day, what kind of shoes!"

If it were a deeply ingrained memory, she ought to remember!

If this really happened, Gu Tong would never forget.

Clothes? Shoes?

Gu Tong instinctively tried to recall, but there wasn’t any image in her mind.

She could only remember Qiu Xue’s unbearably insincere words, but for everything else, there was no recollection at all.

What’s going on...

"What kind of expression did that little bitch have, how did she look at you!"

Xia Xi added another question, surely she should remember this!
