Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon’s Reluctant Love
Chapter 300 - Chapter 300 Chapter 299 She Has Someone She Likes Now

Chapter 300: Chapter 299: She Has Someone She Likes Now Chapter 300: Chapter 299: She Has Someone She Likes Now Ming Yao came out of Yun Qinghong’s office.

A soft and tender voice arose, “Senior Sister.”

Ming Yao looked up and saw the girl standing not far away.

Yun Qingge.

She had a face as delicate as a lotus flower, with every feature from her brows and eyes to her nose and lips crafted with precision. Her long hair, which hadn’t been dyed or permed, draped over her shoulders, enhancing her youthful and pure charm.

Yun Qingge was Yun Qinghong’s only daughter.

Ever since she was little, she had been pretty and lively, the joy of the Tang Sect.

The last time Ming Yao had seen her was in a video in the Tang Sect group chat.

Someone had shared a video of her and the Senior Brother’s wedding ceremony in the group.

Back then, her eyes were curved in joy, looking as if they held countless stars within, shimmering and bright.

But this time, her eyes were tinged with a light layer of melancholy and sorrow.

In truth, there wasn’t any deep-seated hatred among them as disciple brothers and sisters.

They had always been harmonious and united since childhood.

She and Yun Qingge were also the darlings of their sect siblings.

Ming Yao had never hated Yun Qingge, after all, fate was something difficult to explain.

Moreover, after she had gotten together with Gu Siting, she realized that her feelings for the Senior Brother weren’t truly of a romantic nature.

Because she had been pampered and spoiled by him since they were young, and he had rescued her in times of trouble, she had mistaken that sense of security for affection.

However, truly liking someone meant that whenever you thought of them, your heart would beat faster involuntarily.

Just like how her heart quickened now whenever she thought of Gu Siting, that indescribable flutter surging in her chest.

“Senior Sister, you really came back!” Yun Qingge moved forward and grasped Ming Yao’s hand tightly.

Ming Yao was about to say something when Jing Hang rushed over.

With Jing Hang, she and Ming Yao were even closer.

When the younger sister married the Senior Brother, it had caused Jing Hang to look unfavorably upon the younger sister.

Whenever he returned to the Tang Sect and saw her, he acted as if he had a bone to pick with her!

Fearing that the younger sister would hurt Ming Yao, Jing Hang wanted to keep the two apart, but Ming Yao shook her head at him.

Seeing Jing Hang’s protectiveness of Ming Yao, a shade of dimness flitted through Yun Qingge’s eyes.

Although she and the Senior Sister were the darlings of the Tang Sect, it seemed everyone favored the Senior Sister a little more.

Of course, her abilities in various aspects weren’t as exceptional as the Senior Sister’s either.

“Jing, I won’t hurt Senior Sister. I just want to talk to her alone for a bit,” Yun Qingge said.

Jing Hang snorted coldly, “If you weren’t going to hurt Senior Sister, you wouldn’t have forced the Senior Brother to marry you!”

“Jing Hang!”

“Jing Hang!”

Ming Yao and Yun Qingge called out simultaneously.

Seeing the warning look from Ming Yao, Jing Hang touched his nose, “Alright, alright, have your chat!”

Yun Qingge led Ming Yao to the tea room.

She personally brewed a cup of black coffee for Ming Yao.

“Senior Sister used to like drinking coffee without sugar.”

Ming Yao took a sip, “Junior Sister, your skills are still as good as ever.”

Yun Qingge sat across from Ming Yao, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, “Senior Sister, I’m sorry.”

Ming Yao looked at Yun Qingge, not speaking immediately.

She naturally knew why Yun Qingge was apologizing.

Yun Qingge’s eyes reddened slightly, “I have admired Senior Brother since I was young, but his eyes only had room for you. I thought about keeping this adoration hidden in my heart forever.”

“But when Father asked me to choose a husband from among the Senior Brothers to inherit the Tang Sect, I chose Senior Brother without hesitation.”

“Because only he has the ability to take over the Tang Sect; I didn’t want to see it fall under my generation. I admit I was selfish, wanting to use this to tie Senior Brother to me.”

As she said this, Yun Qingge’s lips curled into a faint hint of mockery, “But Senior Sister, do you know? When Senior Brother found out he could inherit the Tang Sect by marrying me, he wasn’t the least bit tempted!”

“He even told me that nothing was more important than you, Senior Sister.”

Ming Yao’s lips pursed slightly, “Junior Sister, you don’t need to tell me these things.”

Yun Qingge’s eyelashes became damp with tears, and she tilted her head slightly to wipe them away, “Do you know why he finally compromised and married me? Because of your insomnia, I have P-type blood, and he needed my ‘heart blood’ as an Elixir Primer!”

Upon hearing Yun Qingge’s words, Ming Yao was deeply shocked.

The hand holding the coffee cup tightened its grip slightly.

She had not expected that Senior Brother and Junior Sister’s marriage was actually for her sake!

“After he found out you had hidden yourself away and later died from insomnia, he went mad. Those who sought revenge and burned your body suffered a terrible fate!”

“He is seen by outsiders as a flower on a high cliff, pure of heart and desire, an existence like that of Buddha’s son. I had never seen him lose control until that time, but then, I saw it!”

“Some time ago, I made a promise and gave him my ‘heart blood,’ and he should have successfully produced the medicine to cure your insomnia!”

“Before marrying him, we had an agreement for a year; if within that year, he couldn’t feel anything for me, we would divorce!”

“But Senior Sister, half a year has passed, and his heart remains still towards me.”

Yun Qingge covered her face with her hands, tears streaming through her fingers, “Do you know? On our wedding night, he got drunk and kept calling out your name, continuously saying ‘I’m sorry’…”

“Even so, I keep trying, wanting to make him fall in love with me.”

Due to giving away her ‘heart blood,’ Yun Qingge’s health had been poor lately, and she started coughing violently as her emotions surged.

Ming Yao took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears from Yun Qingge’s face.

“Junior Sister, I didn’t come back to compete with you for Senior Brother. You don’t need to worry, I have someone I like too, and it’s not Senior Brother.”

Yun Qingge looked at Ming Yao with trembling eyelashes, biting her lip, “Senior Sister… I’m sorry, I admit that I am very selfish when it comes to love. I want to try for another half year, and if it really doesn’t work out, I won’t force Senior Brother to stay with me anymore.”

Ming Yao knew what Yun Qingge was worried about, and she was speaking from the heart.

Even without Gu Siting, from the moment Senior Brother and Junior Sister got married, she had not considered getting involved with him, nor would she disrupt their marriage.

Not to mention, after meeting Gu Siting, she understood what real affection was!

For Senior Brother, she felt, perhaps it was more of a sibling-like affection!

“Even if you and Senior Brother divorce, he and I will not be possible. Qingge, don’t live in the shadow of your Senior Sister. You must believe in yourself, you have your own shining points. As long as you are sincere, I’m sure Senior Brother will come to realize your worth one day!”

Yun Qingge looked at the sincere and earnest Ming Yao, grabbing her hand, “Senior Sister, do you really have someone you like?”

Ming Yao nodded.

Yun Qingge found it hard to believe, yet seeing Senior Sister’s expression, it seemed like she wasn’t lying to her!

Yun Qingge wanted to say something more when a cool and aloof figure entered the room.
