Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon's Reluctant Love-Chapter 114 - : The Little Maid’s Disguise is Revealed (2)
Chapter 114: Chapter 114: The Little Maid’s Disguise is Revealed (2)
Time seemed to freeze at this moment!
It was quiet, deathly silent.
Little Snowball, not knowing what trouble it had caused, hopped back into Ming Yao’s arms and let out a pitiful meow towards her.
It was as if to say, “Mommy, I only like you, no other woman can hold me!”
Ming Yao glanced at Gu Siting’s eyes, which had suddenly turned cold, and she wished she could knock out the Meatball in her arms with a slap.
...
She thought of everything but had completely overlooked the Meatball factor!
It was all over, all over, all over!
Given Tyrant Gu’s shrewdness, he must have grown suspicious!
Old Madam Gu had no idea what had happened, but seeing how much Little Snowball liked Ming Yao, she smiled and said, “Even Snowball likes Yaoyao, Ah Ting, that’s enough to prove that grandma chose the right wife for you.”
Gu Siting let out a cold laugh from his throat, “Heh.”
Ming Yao looked at the man’s sharp and tense profile, feeling a wave of guilt.
Gu Siting didn’t say anything further and accompanied the old lady to the dining room.

Throughout the meal, Gu Siting didn’t say a word, and all the conversation was between Old Madam Gu and Ming Yao.
Ming Yao sensed that there was something off with the man’s mood.
He hadn’t eaten much, leaning against the chair back with his tall figure, holding an unlit cigarette between his fingers, his dark eyes deep and dangerous like an abyss with no bottom in sight.
Ming Yao always felt as if she had been seen through by him!
She finished the meal absentmindedly and saw Old Madam Gu off.
Old Madam Gu patted Ming Yao’s hand, “Yaoyao, Ah Ting may seem cold on the outside but is warm on the inside. Work on cultivating your relationship with him, and try to give grandma the joy of a great-grandchild soon!”
Ming Yao feigned embarrassment and smiled, “Grandma, I will try my best.”
After Old Madam Gu left in her car, Ming Yao turned around to see the man standing at the entrance.
His gaze was cool and mocking as he looked at her, and he spoke with frost in his voice, “The old lady is gone, you can go too!”
So cold and ruthless!
Ming Yao opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but the man had already started walking upstairs.
The Little Maid, seeing Gu Siting had gone upstairs, approached Ming Yao and whispered, “Sister Yao, did I screw up for you?”
Ming Yao glanced at the Little Maid’s arm, “You’ve been scratched by Little Snowball, remember to get vaccinated. Also, go to my servant room now, help me pack Tyrant Gu’s coat and bring it out.”
With Tyrant Gu’s attitude towards her, there was no chance he would let her stay overnight!
With his coat, she could get through tonight and swap identities with the Little Maid again tomorrow!
Before long, the Little Maid came to Ming Yao’s side.
“Sister Yao, there is no coat of your husband’s in the servant room.”
What?
Ming Yao followed the Little Maid to the servant room.
The man’s coat, which she had put in the wardrobe, was gone.
Ming Yao had Aunt Zhong look for it, and Aunt Zhong told her, “Fourth Master called earlier, saying a coat he likes was missing and asked me to check if it was in Fujin’s room. I found the coat in Fujin’s closet. Seeing it wasn’t washed, I notified the dry cleaners to pick it up.”
Ming Yao, “…”
Damn it!
That damn man must have discovered her identity!
Ming Yao prepared to go upstairs to find Gu Siting and ask him what he meant, but when she reached the upstairs, she found he was neither in the bedroom nor the study.
The Little Maid hurriedly ran up, “Sister Yao, while you were at the servant room, Fourth Master drove away!”
Ming Yao, “…”
She searched the room and couldn’t find a single piece of clothing he had taken off!
Ming Yao looked up to the sky, on the verge of tears.
This time, she had really done herself in!
…
Gu Siting drove away from the Imperial Garden.
The car window was open, he rested his elbow on the window, holding a cigarette between his fingers as the smoke clouded his contours, his handsome brows tinted with a layer of dark hostility.
Ash from the cigarette fell, burning the back of his hand, yet he seemed not to notice.
Countless scenes flashed through his mind.
That day, when he caught her cheating with Xiao Yixuan, what did she say?
“Fine, from now on we have nothing to do with each other, I’d rather choose a dog over you.”
But within a day, she had actively sought him out again.
With a smile that was both enchanting and bewitching.
After he coldly sent her away, she didn’t make any further fuss.
He hadn’t taken her seriously, nor had he imagined that the little maid from the Imperial Garden would be related to her!

Gu Fuzhen?
Conquer Gu?
Gu Siting’s throat emitted a bone-chilling scoff.
Damned woman!
She had completely fooled him!
The man named Jing Hang, he probably wasn’t terminally ill, was he?
No wonder she’d lost interest in Xiao Yixuan, she had found a better lover!
But what exactly was her purpose for coming to the Imperial Garden to be his little maid?
Could it have anything to do with his clothes?
Memories flooded his mind of a couple of times she slept holding his clothes.
Could she have some special fetish for his clothes?
Gu Siting narrowed his dark, cold, and narrow eyes, his handsome features edged with frost.
He was going to see just what she was plotting.
Little Swindler!
Gu Siting took out his phone and made a call to Lu Zhou.
“Pack up, we’re heading to Pingshan Village right now.”
Pingshan Village was a backward little village where Gu Siting had donated a school called Hope Primary School six months earlier. Now that the school was completed, the school authorities had invited Gu Siting to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
He was supposed to go tomorrow, but now Gu Siting had moved it up.
…
Gu Siting was gone for nearly six days.
Ming Yao hadn’t slept for six days.
The agony of wanting to sleep but being unable to was like countless bugs gnawing at her viscera.
Her whole body was uncomfortable, her eyes dry and gritty, experiencing once again what it meant to prefer death to life!
Jing Hang was extremely anxious. He instructed his people from the Tang Sect to secretly search for the Secret Manual.
But finding it in a short amount of time was not easy.
Ming Yao’s predecessor had died after seven days and nights of insomnia.
With the sixth day now upon them, Jing Hang’s eyes reddened with urgency, “Where the hell has your husband in name only gone? Damn it, I’ll drag him back right now!”
Ming Yao didn’t know where Gu Siting had gone either; she had tried to call him, but his phone was turned off.
She was also upset, not understanding why she had to endure the suffering of insomnia after being given a second chance at life!
Why, out of all things, only that Tyrant Gu could ease her pain?
These past few days, she had been fighting with herself, even harboring thoughts of giving up, thinking it might be better to just die again!
But as time passed, the pain grew worse, and the feeling of being close to death became more and more pronounced, she became terrified again!
Nothing was more frightening than quietly waiting for death to arrive!
Ming Yao clutched her rapidly beating chest, her voice hoarse as she said to Jing Hang, “Junior brother, call his assistant, Lu Zhou.”
Jing Hang looked at Ming Yao, her face pale and her eyes bloodshot, and nodded continuously, “I’m calling right now, senior sister, you must hold on!”
If anything happened to his senior sister, he would make sure that her husband in name would join her in death!
