Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon’s Reluctant Love
Chapter 336 - Chapter 336 Chapter 335 Gu Siting Where Love and Hatred

Chapter 336: Chapter 335: Gu Siting, Where Love and Hatred Intertwine Chapter 336: Chapter 335: Gu Siting, Where Love and Hatred Intertwine Ming Yao said a few words to Nangong Heng and then made her way to the restroom.

Just as she entered, a tall and imposing figure suddenly followed her in.

Ming Yao was startled and tried to close the door, but the man was stronger than her and forcefully pushed the door open.

He barged in.

The restroom door was kicked shut by the man’s long legs as he advanced towards her.

Ming Yao’s slender figure could only retreat continuously.

Until her lower back hit the washbasin and she could retreat no further.

The man’s hands braced on either side of her waist, looking down at her, his presence enveloping her like a net.

The man’s scent, cool with a slight fragrance of alcohol and a faint hint of cold fir, invaded her nostrils.

It was the scent Ming Yao had once been fond of and greedily indulged in.

She took a deep breath and looked up at the man before her.

He was still proud, haughty, and arrogant, only now with an added touch of cold indifference and aloofness.

The look he gave her was chilly and unfeeling.

Ming Yao clenched her hands into fists against his shoulders, trying to push him away, but he was immovable, like a mountain.

Ming Yao’s delicate eyebrows furrowed tightly, “Gu Siting, don’t you think this behavior is very rude?”

Gu Siting narrowed his deep, dark eyes slightly, his long fingers pinching her delicate chin, his voice cold as he spoke, “What did I tell you when we got divorced?”

Ming Yao’s eyebrows knitted further.

Facing his sharp gaze that seemed to pierce through her, Ming Yao didn’t flinch, “Yes, you said we’d better not meet again, but tonight I wasn’t the one who appeared in front of you first, was I?”

Clearly, the man didn’t want to talk so much with her; the grip on her chin tightened a little, “I don’t want to be in the same city as you right now. Please leave immediately!”

Hearing his words, Ming Yao almost laughed in anger.

Wasn’t he being a bit too domineering and paranoid?

The city was so big, only he could come, and she couldn’t?

Besides, she wasn’t chasing after him!

A touch of mockery flashed across Ming Yao’s cool face, “Mr. Gu, although we can’t be husband and wife anymore, we don’t have to become enemies, right? There’s no need for you to be so–”

Before she could finish, she was icily cut off by the man, “One word, are you leaving or not?”

Ming Yao looked at the man in front of her, with sharp, cold eyes that seemed to see through her soul, and her heart involuntarily tightened.

She knew that in his heart, he resented and hated her.

If she continued to be defiant with him, she estimated she would gain no advantage.

Coming to the Nangong Family was like walking on thin ice; she couldn’t afford to make a single misstep.

Ming Yao pressed her lips together tightly, her voice softening a bit, “I have some business to do in the city, and once it’s done, I’ll naturally leave. You won’t even have to let me stay in Country C then.”

This was the greatest concession she could make!

But as soon as she said this, the man’s face grew even uglier.

It was as if a layer of frost had formed over his face, chilling and dark enough to drip water.

Gu Siting’s thin lips curved into a barely there sneer. He could leave Country C, was he planning to cohabit with her ‘Senior Brother’?

“What, during the time you are waiting for your ‘Senior Brother’ to divorce, you can’t stand the loneliness, and you’ve set your sights on the Nangong Family’s Young Master?”

His voice was deep and magnetic, like a finely aged wine brewed over many years, exceptionally pleasing and melodious.

But the words he said were like needles, piercing Ming Yao’s heart one by one.

Ming Yao closed her eyes, forcibly suppressing the emotions welling up inside her, “Gu Siting, can’t you be a bit more magnanimous about our divorce? Is there any need to humiliate me like this?”

Seeing the sparks of anger and humiliation flare in her beautiful eyes, Gu Siting adjusted his tie, his dark eyes growing even more profound, “The woman who aborted my child without a word to me doesn’t really deserve any sympathy!”

Ming Yao’s breathing tightened.

“It’s all in the past now, you…”

Before she could finish, her words were once again cut off by his chilling voice, “In my eyes, it will never be ‘in the past’!”

Seeing the flash of hatred in his eyes, Ming Yao stiffened severely.

“Gu Siting, can’t we part on good terms?”

Must we be at each other’s throats the moment we meet, like it’s a life-or-death situation?

Hearing Ming Yao’s words, a fire seemed to nest in Gu Siting’s chest.

How could this woman think that after what she’d done, they could part on good terms?

If she didn’t appear in front of him, it was fine; he could numb himself with work.

But the moment she did, his emotions spiraled out of control.

“Do you think that’s possible? Unless you leave the capital!”

Even Ming Yao, who normally had a good temper, was getting angry with him.

Unable to contain her fury, she pushed him, “Do you think you’re the President? What gives you the right to restrict my freedom?”

When she pushed with all her strength, which was much greater than that of an average woman, the man staggered backward several steps.

Seeing this, Ming Yao didn’t entangle with him further. She stood up and was about to leave.

But just as she reached the restroom door, her wrist was firmly grasped by the man.

Subsequently, her slender body was thrown against the doorframe.

Her lower back crashed into the doorknob, causing a piercing pain.

It was like needles stabbing her heart. With eyes reddened, she grabbed his wrist and bit down hard.

She didn’t hold back.

Her teeth sank into his flesh, instantly leaving a deep bite mark.

Gu Siting winced in pain and withdrew his hand.

Ming Yao took advantage of this and quickly opened the restroom door to leave.

Gu Siting watched her disappearing figure, his features tense and his dark narrow eyes covered with a layer of blood-red.

After the divorce, she was able to start a new life with ease.

But he was still struggling.

Why should that be?

He was not willing to accept this.

If he was suffering, why should she be at ease?

He had given her a chance. If she didn’t leave wisely, then she shouldn’t blame him for dragging her down to hell with him!

…

After bursting out of the restroom, Ming Yao finally dared to take a deep breath.

She hadn’t expected to encounter Gu Siting on her second day in the capital.

His warning and the iciness in his eyes when he told her to leave the city weren’t just to scare her.

If she didn’t leave, she didn’t know what he would do.

But she didn’t come to the capital just for fun; she had her own difficulties!

Ming Yao turned back and glanced towards the restroom area.

The man had come out, and Nangong Xuan immediately went up to meet him.

Perhaps sensing her gaze, he glanced in her direction.

Ming Yao quickly looked away.

The best she could do was to avoid him if they crossed paths in the future.

But he had better not get involved with Nangong Xuan in any way.

…

On Gu Siting’s side,

he saw Ming Yao heading upstairs.

He frowned slightly, “Who is she?”

Nangong Xuan followed Gu Siting’s gaze and saw him looking at Ming Yao; a sense of alarm rose within her heart, “She’s the daughter of my Fourth Uncle. Her mother is a despicable woman. Recently, I don’t know why Grandpa suddenly brought her home. Mr. Gu, how come you’ve noticed her?”
