Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon's Reluctant Love-Chapter 192 - 191: Soothing the Angry Husband

Chapter 192 -191: Soothing the Angry Husband

Ming Wan chased after Xiao Yichen and left the Imperial Court Hotel.

But standing at the entrance, she was astounded by the brilliant fireworks.

Especially when the fireworks formed the words “Happy Birthday,” she was utterly dumbfounded.

Of course, what shocked her the most were the synchronized screens displaying Ming Yao’s advertisement.

It turned out that Fourth Master Gu was the one who had removed her advertisement.

He did it just to promote Ming Yao.

Ming Wan had no more desire to chase after Xiao Yichen because the extreme favoritism Gu Siting showed toward Ming Yao made her feel intensely heartbroken and jealous!

The birthday banquet was supposed to be her moment to be the center of attention and envy, making Ming Yao fade into insignificance!

Instead, she became a laughingstock!

Why had Old Madam Gu chosen Ming Yao to be Fourth Master’s daughter-in-law in the beginning?

Aside from a pretty face, what else did Ming Yao have?

Back then in Li City, her reputation wasn’t even good.

There must be something she didn’t know!

If Old Madam Gu hadn’t favored Ming Yao, Fourth Master would never have married her, nor would he have given her a second glance!

She couldn’t let Ming Yao continue to be so smug, she had to find out the reason Old Madam Gu made Fourth Master marry Ming Yao!

…

When Gu Siting pulled Ming Yao out of the private room, she was still a bit giddy.

The emotions tonight really fluctuated.

There was disappointment, anger, as well as surprise and excitement.

She didn’t expect that her first birthday after being reborn would be so fulfilling and meaningful.

She used to think this bastard of a man was no good in every way, but now, she found him much more pleasing to look at!

Seeing Ming Yao staring straight at him, the earlobes under his short hair warmed slightly.

His dark eyes glared at her, “Keep looking at me like that, and I’ll take care of you in the car!”

Ming Yao smiled slyly, “Husband, are you thinking about car sex?”

“Car sex?” Suddenly, an exclamation rang out, “Senior Sister, are you two going to have car sex?”

Looking at Jing Hang, who had been missing for two days and finally showed up, Ming Yao was speechless.

She glared at Jing Hang, “You’ve decided to show your face?”

Jing Hang chuckled twice, “It’s Senior Sister’s birthday, I’d show up even if it meant getting beaten up!”

Ming Yao kicked towards Jing Hang, “You little rascal.”

“Senior Sister, you’re dressed in a dignified and elegant cheongsam, don’t do such rude things, okay?”

Ming Yao huffed lightly.

Gu Siting didn’t dare continue the thought.

The more he thought about it, the more suffocated he felt in his chest, the harder it became to get over that hurdle in his heart.

This intense desire to possess was almost pathological.

He didn’t really like this side of himself, but those emotions were beyond his control.

Ming Yao saw the man turn his head away, no longer looking at her, his profile tense, and she couldn’t help but sigh.

This dog of a man, even pettier than she was.

If it was about being silent, she was no match for him anyway.

But from his point of view, if some woman were to send him expensive gifts and roses, perhaps she would be angry too!

“Come here, there’s something I need you to look into.”

Jing Hang hurriedly brought his handsome face close to Ming Yao.

Gu Siting, standing to the side, unconsciously furrowed his brows at their intimate behavior.

Even though he knew Ming Yao and Jing Hang were just Senior Sister and Junior Brother, it still irked him a little.

Ming Yao didn’t notice the change in Gu Siting’s expression.

She pulled out a strand of hair from her head and handed it to Jing Hang, “You find a way to get a sample from Ming Guoan and help me do a paternity test report!”

Before today, she thought she looked like Ming Guoan, and it was obvious they were father and daughter when seen together; she had never doubted whether she was the daughter of Ming Guoan!

But today’s birthday banquet, with Ming Guoan wanting to sell her to Young Master Tan, could a biological father do such a thing?

Even if he didn’t like her, was there a need to be so cruel?

Ming Guoan and Jiang Biyun, the couple, showed no warmth towards her. If it were just their cold-blooded nature, why were they so good to Ming Wan?

Ming Yao didn’t want to be confused about it any longer.

Jing Hang, looking at Ming Yao’s serious and cold expression, nodded gravely, “Don’t worry, Senior Sister, I will definitely find out for you!”

Ming Yao made an OK gesture quietly instructed Jing Hang to return the gemstone to that person, then walked towards Gu Siting.

Just as she was about to grasp his hand, he stuffed his hands into his pockets and ignored her, continuing to walk forward.

Ming Yao, “…” Just like that, the dog of a man was angry again?

Ming Yao hurriedly caught up, her slender fingers clinging to the sleeve of the man’s coat, her bright and coldly charming face revealing a smile that sought to please, “Husband, what did I do to upset you this time? The nine hundred and ninety roses were shared by my colleagues, and the Paraiba Tourmaline Gemstone was also sent back, I only accept your gift, you know!”

Jing Hang stood not far away, watching his Senior Sister carefully seeking favor from the man, and he rubbed his forehead.

To be honest, he couldn’t quite understand what was really going on in his Senior Sister’s heart anymore.

Did she have real feelings for that man in name only?

Jing Hang sighed and shifted his gaze away from the two of them.

Forget it, Senior Sister has always been decisive, in the past, so many outstanding men pursued her, but she was only focused on completing the task, detaching herself swiftly and without emotion once it ended.

Maybe, once she got her nominal husband’s heart blood, she would also leave cleanly!

Jing Hang’s phone rang, he glanced at the caller ID and his heart skipped a beat.

He quickly hit the answer button, “Senior Brother… What, you’ve come to Li City?”

…

Ming Yao caught up with Gu Siting, disregarding his cold and disdainful handsome face, she forcefully intertwined her fingers with his large palm.

“What’s wrong, getting angry all of a sudden must have a reason, right?”

The man stopped walking, lifted his eyelids slightly, and looked at her indifferently, “If it’s important, you don’t look for your husband, but seek out other men?”

Ming Yao, “…”

So her asking Jing Hang for help made him unhappy?

As his wife, helping to reduce his troubles should be a good thing, right?

Was she supposed to bother him with every little thing?

As the president of Gu’s, busy with endless matters, wasn’t he tired of the hassle?

However, the fact that he cared did please her.

She said with a giggly smile, “Husband, do you like a wife who’s clingy like Cuscuta? If I really depended on you for everything, wouldn’t you quickly find me annoying?”

Ming Yao still had some self-awareness.

Wasn’t it her personality that had quickly captured his attention?

Gu Siting looked at her with a cool gaze, “You are decisive, but being too decisive is not always a good thing either!”

Ming Yao, “…” This proud and spoiled ghost!

Was he just wanting her to ask for his help?

“Next time there’s something, can I ask you for help?” Ming Yao traced his palm with her fingertips, her lips lifting in a coquettish smile, “But you’ve been neglecting me for the past two days, I’m also angry about that!”

Gu Siting was truly irritated by this matter.

Especially since Jing Hang had said that she and her Senior Brother seemed like a match made by Heaven, like a divine couple.

If Jing Hang could say such a thing, her Senior Brother must indeed be a remarkably outstanding person.

If her Senior Brother wasn’t married, might she have feelings for him—

Ming Yao helplessly glared at him, then took the initiative to reach out and wrap her arms around his lean waist, “Husband, why are you so petty? Today’s my birthday, can’t you let me be happy for a while longer? There’s only one more hour, and then my birthday will be over!”
