Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon's Reluctant Love-Chapter 166 - 165: A Voice That Can Make Ears Pregnant
Chapter 166: Chapter 165: A Voice That Can Make Ears Pregnant
Yanxi also saw Ming Yao and initially wanted to greet her, but seeing Fourth Brother with a cold face, clearly not willing to talk to Ming Yao, Yanxi swallowed back the words about to leave her mouth.
Walking behind Yanxi, Yan Youling saw this scene and smiled at the corners of her mouth.
She knew that Brother Ting only had Sister Shi Ying in his heart!
That woman who was like a vixen didn’t match him at all!
The sister-in-law she acknowledged was also only Sister Shi Ying.
Ming Yao, seeing Gu Siting ignoring her, naturally didn’t take the initiative to pay him any attention either.
...
Xia Yiwan nudged Ming Yao’s arm with her elbow, “Yaoyao, that man in the middle is so handsome, and he looks a bit familiar too.”
That group of men and women dressed in luxurious clothes were clearly from the Upper Society.
Ming Yao pulled Xia Yiwan and walked towards the parking lot, “Even dogs are handsomer than him.”
Xia Yiwan sensed Ming Yao’s hostility toward that man, and once they got into the car, she suddenly remembered, “Isn’t that Fourth Master Gu, your husband?”
“You must be seeing things, that damn man isn’t!”
Xia Yiwan, “…”
Both had drunk alcohol, so Ming Yao called for a substitute driver.
Xia Yiwan didn’t want to go back and followed Ming Yao to a little courtyard in the suburbs.
On the way, Xia Yiwan leaned on Ming Yao’s shoulder and fell asleep.
Ming Yao looked enviously at Xia Yiwan, who could fall asleep whenever she wanted, wondering if she would ever be able to cure her insomnia in this lifetime.
Ming Yao leaned back in her seat, staring at the dimly lit car roof with wide-open eyes.
After the car had driven a distance, the substitute driver suddenly spoke up, “Miss, there’s a car behind us that’s been following us for a long time.”
Ming Yao glanced out of the car window.
Just as the substitute driver had said, a black Bentley was following them at a not too close yet not too distant range.
Ming Yao furrowed her slender brows.
Wasn’t he ignoring her?

Why had he followed?
“Young man, speed up, I’ll double your fee!”
Upon hearing this, the driver gunned the accelerator.
But the person driving the car behind them clearly had superior skills.
No matter how fast the young man drove, he couldn’t shake off the car following them.
Ming Yao gritted her teeth.
If it wasn’t for the alcohol she had consumed, she would have shown that damn man what real driving skills were!
The substitute driver brought the car to the suburban courtyard, and after Ming Yao paid the fare, she woke Xia Yiwan up.
Xia Yiwan rubbed her eyes and, seeing the pitch-dark surroundings, shivered.
“Yaoyao, do you usually live here? Your husband is really no good, isn’t he the richest man in Li City? How can he let his own wife live in a place like this?”
“Don’t be afraid, tomorrow I’ll go to the city and buy a villa in your name!”
Ming Yao, “…” What’s it like to have a tycoon best friend?
Xia Yiwan hugged Ming Yao’s arm tightly, looked around, and buried her face into her fine shoulder, her teeth chattering slightly, “What’s that noise all around? Could there be ghosts here?”
Ming Yao gave Xia Yiwan a flick on the forehead, “It’s birds chirping, big sister.”
“Even though I came from the countryside too, I’ve been afraid of dark places since I was little. Yaoyao, aren’t you a bit too bold? What if some pervert coveting your beauty sneaks into your house in the middle of the night and… what if he assaults you?”
Ming Yao really marveled at her big sister’s imagination.
It was a pity not to write horror stories!
Just as Ming Yao was about to say something, Xia Yiwan caught a glimpse of a dark figure approaching out of the corner of her eye, “Ah, a pervert!”
Xia Yiwan buried her face in Ming Yao’s embrace.
Ming Yao watched the tall figure approaching from the darkness, her brow twitching.
The man who was being referred to as a pervert also paused for a moment.
Seeing the woman buried in Ming Yao’s embrace, the man’s face darkened slightly.
Ming Yao looked at the man a few steps away from her and spoke in a calm voice, “Mr. Gu, is there something you need?”
“I brought your coat.”
The man’s voice was low and clear in the silent night, and it carried a magnetic quality.
In layman’s terms, it was a voice that could ‘impregnate’ your ears.
Xia Yiwan quickly lifted her head from Ming Yao’s arms to glance at the man.
Was this a pervert? He was more like a god descending from heaven, okay?
Sheesh, that handsome face, that physique, hitting the peak the moment he set foot in the industry?
Xia Yiwan pinched Ming Yao’s arm, “I remember now, he’s Fourth Master Gu, your husband!”
Xia Yiwan extended her hand to Gu Siting with a beaming smile, “Hello there, I’m Yaoyao’s best friend, Xia Yiwan.”
Gu Siting reached out his hand and symbolically shook hands with Xia Yiwan, “Hello.”
Xia Yiwan laughed like a goose, “Ho ho ho, I actually shook hands with the big shot of Li City, Fourth Master. If my dad found out, he’d probably make me go ten days and nights without washing my hand.”
Ming Yao rubbed her forehead.
“Xia Yiwan, could you please not embarrass me?”
“Okay, okay, okay, you go chat with your husband. I’m heading inside now.”
It was said that Fourth Master was even scarier than King Yama. With him around, even ghosts wouldn’t dare to come close, right?
Humming a tune, Xia Yiwan dashed into the courtyard.
After rubbing her temples, Ming Yao looked at the man with a somber expression in front of her, “Weren’t you ignoring me?”
“Ignoring you doesn’t mean I want to see you suffer from insomnia.” The man took off the coat from his shoulder and tossed it into the woman’s arms, “I don’t want to become a widower yet.”
Ming Yao, “Even if I became a widow, you wouldn’t become a widower!”
Dog of a man, can’t you speak human?
Holding his coat and no longer wanting to speak another word to him, Ming Yao turned and went into the courtyard.
She didn’t leave the man with a word.
Xia Yiwan, leaning against the window, saw Ming Yao come in, leaving the man outside. She handed over a bag in her hand to Ming Yao, “I still haven’t given this set of clothes to your husband!”
“Don’t bother giving it!”
Xia Yiwan, “Did you two have a fight?”
“We were about to have a truce, but he reignited the war.”
Seeing that the man hadn’t left, but was leaning against a tree in the yard smoking, Xia Yiwan gave Ming Yao a suggestive wink, “Your husband’s hands are so long and good-looking!”
Ming Yao, “Xia Yiwan, can you not fill your head with dirty garbage all day long?”
Xia Yiwan chuckled, “You don’t know how many women in Li City fantasize about your husband, do you?”
Ming Yao, “Those women must be blind.”
Xia Yiwan flopped onto the bed, propping her face with her hands, “Is your husband’s technique really that bad?”
“It’s so bad it leaves people traumatized.”
Xia Yiwan, “So the good-looking ones are all duds?”
“Why don’t you try it out with your little puppy?”
“Forget it, I’ll save it for the wedding night.”
Ming Yao stood by the window and glanced at the man smoking under the tree, biting her red lips slightly.
What does this dog of a man mean?
Does he plan to stand in the yard all night tonight?
Ming Yao watched him for a few seconds, then suddenly, the man looked up, his dark eyes glanced her way.
Ming Yao quickly pulled the curtains shut.
After taking a shower in the bathroom, Ming Yao changed her clothes and came out.
Xia Yiwan, who had been chatting on the bed with her little puppy, looked up at Ming Yao, and she was solidly taken aback.
“Yaoyao, you you you…”
Ming Yao tossed her phone to Xia Yiwan, “Here, take a picture of me.”
“Dressing up like this to take a photo, who are you showing it to?”
“Of course…” Ming Yao smiled mysteriously, “I’m not telling you.”
