Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon's Reluctant Love-Chapter 194 - 193: He Lifted Her Up Horizontally

Chapter 194: Chapter 193: He Lifted Her Up Horizontally

Jing Hang looked at his Senior Brother, who appeared as untouchable and noble as a Banished Immortal, and then at his martial sister sprawled on the man’s back in the street. He sighed before saying, “Senior Brother, you and martial sister both have your own lives now, actually…”

Before he could finish, he was intimidated by the icy chill that seemed to radiate invisibly from Senior Brother.

“She still hates me.” The man’s voice, like pearls falling onto a plate, was cold yet pleasant to the ear.

The coldness on him dissipated suddenly, revealing a trace of desolation and loneliness.

Jing Hang could see that Senior Brother still harbored deep feelings for his martial sister, but why did he suddenly marry the master’s daughter back then?

Could it be, as the rumors claimed, that he did it to inherit the Tang Sect?

When martial sister learned of their marriage, she went out to avoid everyone.

If martial sister hadn’t left the Tang Sect, perhaps she wouldn’t have died from insomnia.

But she would rather die than return to the Tang Sect.

One could imagine how fierce and resolute her temperament was!

Seeming to think of something, Jing Hang took out the Paraiba Tourmaline Gemstone, “Senior Brother, martial sister asked me to return this to you.”

The man looked at the Paraiba Tourmaline Gemstone handed over by Jing Hang. His clear eyes were as inscrutable as the moon, and his voice was indifferent, “If she refuses to take it, then keep it for her.”

Jing Hang, “…”

“The medicine for her insomnia will be ready soon; I’ll come to fetch her then.”

Without waiting for Jing Hang to respond, the noble man, as if a Banished Immortal had descended, boarded the helicopter.

Jing Hang’s heart raced upon hearing Senior Brother’s last words.

Was Senior Brother really about to discover the medicine to cure martial sister’s insomnia?

That would be wonderful!

Martial sister would no longer need her husband-in-name’s heart blood, nor would she have to live a compromised life. She could do as she pleased, free and unbound!

On the busy street.

Ming Yao heard the sound of a helicopter circling overhead and instinctively looked up.

The helicopter was above the roof of a building, and though one couldn’t actually see who was inside it,

She felt as if there were a pair of cold and serene eyes watching her.

Such a gaze was achingly familiar to her.

Ming Yao’s heart skipped a beat.

“Mrs. Gu, how much longer do you plan to have me carry you, hmm?”

Gu Siting waited a while and, seeing that the woman on his back didn’t reply, turned to glance at her.

The woman was tilting her head, looking in the direction of the night sky, where it seemed a helicopter was hovering.

“What are you looking at?” His large hand, wrapped around her knees, tightened its grip.

Ming Yao snapped back to reality, resettled herself on Gu Siting’s broad shoulders, and replied softly, “Nothing, husband, let’s go back!”

Gu Siting vaguely sensed that something was off with Ming Yao’s emotions. On their way back, she looked out the car window without saying a word.

Upon reaching the Imperial Garden, Ming Yao went straight upstairs.

Gu Siting watched her slender figure, his dark eyes narrowing slightly.

What secret was this woman hiding?

Upon returning to her room, Ming Yao washed her face with cold water to calm herself down.

Thinking of Little Snowball still in the suburban cottage, she quickly messaged Jing Hang to ask him to look after Little Snowball.

Jing Hang responded quickly to her message: [Okay, I’ll go. But martial sister, Senior Brother didn’t take the Paraiba Tourmaline, and he came to Li City but left quickly!]

Ming Yao pressed her lips tightly together.

New novel chapt𝒆rs are published on ƒгeewebnovёl.com.

So it wasn’t her illusion earlier on the street; he really had been there.

Ming Yao didn’t reply to Jing Hang’s message.

It wasn’t long before Xia Yiwan sent her a voice message.

[Yaoyao, have you and your husband returned home? Emma, him standing up for you tonight and slapping those faces was so satisfying. Make sure to take a thorough bath tonight and properly thank him!]

[Remember to put on that sexy sleepwear you bought last time!]

[Guaranteed to make Fourth Master’s nose bleed! Gosh, I really want to sneak under your bed!]

[Would be worth paying to watch!]

Ming Yao was amused by Xia Yiwan’s words.

After chatting with Xia Yiwan for a while, Ming Yao took out a bottle of medicine from the locked drawer of the vanity table.

It was the medicine she had asked Jing Hang to get for her.

After swallowing a pill, she went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Her luggage and sleepwear had been taken back to the suburban courtyard a few days ago, when she left home in a huff.

After her shower, she wrapped herself in a bath towel and went to Tyrant Gu’s walk-in closet.

Her delicate fingertips slowly glided over the rows of his shirts.

In the end, she picked a black shirt.

With the top two buttons of the shirt undone to reveal her exquisitely sexy collarbone.

Her hair, not yet completely dry, cascaded over her shoulders; her face were bare, her lips rosy and teeth white. Her legs peeking out from the hem of the shirt were long, straight, and irresistibly enticing.

When Gu Siting returned from his study to the bedroom, he saw Ming Yao wearing his shirt, seated in front of the vanity table, taking care of her skin.

The fine fabric enveloped the woman’s enchantingly beautiful body. Her bare feet on the carpet and her delicate, slender ankles with nails that were shiny and rosy, incited temptation.

Ming Yao patted some toner on her face and turned to look at the man standing at the door, her luscious lips curving up. “Husband, why are you standing there like a log? Don’t want your return gift?”

Fresh from the shower, her lips were bright red and her fair, delicate skin was touched with a faint blush, which in the bedroom light made her look particularly charming and radiant.

Gu Siting’s Adam’s apple bobbed.

He hummed deeply, “In a moment.”

He did not ask why she had seemed suddenly unhappy when she returned. He had just called Yanxi in the study, asking what could be the reason for a woman’s sudden anger. Yanxi said women were the least reasonable creatures in the world and that coddling them a bit when they’re angry was usually enough.

Gu Siting went into the bathroom, and Ming Yao continued with her skincare routine.

But in less than five minutes, the bathroom door opened.

Seeing the man emerging in a bathrobe, Ming Yao’s long lashes fluttered slightly. “You… finished already?”

Usually, he seemed to take half an hour. Why so fast today?

She even doubted whether he had actually bathed.

Gu Siting walked up behind Ming Yao and bent slightly to embrace her from the back.

Her slender back pressed against the man’s sturdy chest, his unique masculine scent enveloped her, causing a tremor at the tip of Ming Yao’s heart.

“Can you not rush, please? I haven’t finished my skincare… Ah!”

Before she could finish speaking, her whole body was lifted into the air.

She was horizontally scooped up by the man.

Fearing a fall, her hands could only hook around the man’s neck.

Her glimmering eyes filled with luminous mist, and the faint tear mole by the corner of her eye was more provocatively stunning than ever.

Her eyes sparkled, and she pouted her lips in a slight dissatisfaction, resembling a little vixen that had strayed into the midnight forest.

No one could resist her silent seduction!

The man laid her on the bed, then his tall frame hovered over her.

Despite having taken the medicine, Ming Yao still felt some uncontrollable nervousness inside.

Perhaps sensing her anxiety, the man reached out a hand, interlocking his fingers with her petite hand in a comforting grip.

His thin lips neared her ear, his voice low and seductive, “Don’t worry, this time I won’t leave you with bad memories.”
