Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon’s Reluctant Love
Chapter 364 - Chapter 364 Chapter 363 She Eloped with Another Man

Chapter 364: Chapter 363: She Eloped with Another Man Chapter 364: Chapter 363: She Eloped with Another Man Ming Yao urgently needed to return to Li City, and she said to Liu Wushuang, “Wushuang, next time I have a chance, Teacher will visit your home again, you take care of the clients on behalf of your elder brother.”

Liu Wushuang was momentarily stunned, “Huh? Isn’t Teacher Ming dining here?”

Ming Yao nodded, “I have some matters to attend to, so I must leave now.”

Seeing that Ming Yao insisted on leaving, Liu Wushuang didn’t feel it was appropriate to forcibly keep her.

She could only look for an opportunity to invite Teacher Ming for a meal next time.

Gu Siting and Liu Jinyan returned from the back garden to the living room.

Liu Wushuang approached and said, “Big brother, we can dine now!”

Liu Jinyan led Gu Siting to the dining room.

“What about your teacher?”

“She had something come up suddenly and left first.”

Gu Siting guessed that Liu Wushuang’s teacher was Ming Yao; he had heard a mention of her from Nangong Xuan.

She must have left in a hurry because he was staying for the meal, right?

A mocking curve ghosted across Gu Siting’s thin lips.

Not long after Gu Siting left the Liu Family, Liu Yun returned.

Her right eyelid had been twitching all day, and a vague premonition of something unpleasant was arising in her mind.

It felt like something was about to happen.

Liu Yun hurried back to her room and quickly took out the suitcase from her dressing room.

Upon opening it, she carefully checked inside.

Suddenly, she discovered that a button was missing.

Liu Yun’s complexion changed dramatically.

She had kept that button for over twenty years; how could it suddenly be missing?

Had someone entered her room?

Liu Yun immediately went downstairs to inquire with the servants.

After learning that Liu Wushuang had brought Ming Yao over, Liu Yun’s pupils contracted violently.

Could it be that Ming Yao took the button?

A cold glint streaked across Liu Yun’s eyes.

This Ming Yao was overstepping her bounds.

She hadn’t taken the initiative to deal with her, and yet she dared to sneakily investigate her!

It seemed she couldn’t leave her alive in this world.

Liu Yun immediately took out her phone and dialed a number.

“I need you to take care of someone for me.”

…

After returning to the Nangong Family, Ming Yao packed her belongings briefly.

She drove to the airport.

She had purchased the fastest ticket back to Li City.

Taking a shortcut, her car had to pass through a mountain road, and just as she was about to turn a corner, a large truck drove toward her.

The large truck showed no signs of slowing down, heading straight for Ming Yao’s car.

Ming Yao’s expression shifted.

With time pressing and the situation critical, her car was about to be hit with no room to maneuver. She made a split-second decision, slammed on the gas, and turned the steering wheel sharply, with two wheels hanging in the air and the other two skimming along the edge of the cliff.

If her driving skills had been any less, she would have been crushed under the truck.

But Ming Yao forcefully made it past.

A Maybach passed by on an adjacent road and witnessed the frightening scene, its occupants dumbfounded.

“Holy cow, the driver of that Audi is insane!”

Even race car drivers wouldn’t dare to drive like that!

Gu Yanyu in the Maybach clicked his tongue, “Let’s go and check it out.”

After Ming Yao’s car passed the large truck, she was forced to stop due to a damaged tire.

Seeing that Ming Yao was unharmed, the truck driver didn’t dare to stick around and quickly drove away.

The Maybach stopped beside Ming Yao, and upon seeing her, Gu Yanyu raised his eyebrows in surprise, “Turns out it’s Big Sister-in-law.”

Ming Yao’s face remained calm, “Young Master, I’m no longer your sister-in-law.”

Gu Yanyu had long known that Ming Yao was exceptionally skilled, and today, having witnessed her evade danger and demonstrate impressive driving skills, he couldn’t help but be amazed, “Every time I see Miss Ming, you always surprise me.”

Ming Yao couldn’t be bothered with Gu Yanyu; although the previous situation was safe in the end, her heart had almost jumped to her throat at the moment of near-accident.

She crouched down to check her car’s tires.

“Miss Ming, you’re heading to the airport, right? I’m going there too, so how about I give you a ride?”

Ming Yao, thinking of the urgent matter at hand, didn’t refuse.

While Ming Yao wasn’t paying attention, Gu Yanyu secretly took a photo of her sitting in his car.

He posted it on WeChat Moments, allowing only Gu Siting to see it.

Although he wasn’t sure if Gu Siting had blocked him, if he hadn’t, letting him see his WeChat Moment could also annoy him.

[Eloping with a beautiful woman]

The accompanying picture was of Ming Yao sitting in his car, looking out the window.

After returning from the Liu Family, Gu Siting was planning to meet up with Yanxi and a few others. On the way, he picked up his phone and glanced at WeChat.

To his actual surprise, he saw Gu Yanyu’s WeChat Moment.

Before he was together with Ming Yao, he hardly used WeChat.

So, at the time, he had not blocked Gu Yanyu.

Seeing Gu Yanyu’s WeChat Moment, Gu Siting’s face immediately turned gloomy and unapproachable.

He took out his phone and called Gu Yanyu.

The call went through, but no one picked up.

Watching his phone vibrate continuously, Gu Yanyu’s lips curved into a wicked smile.

Madre, he finally got one over on Gu Siting!

He had thought that Gu Siting would encounter some problems as soon as he turned twenty-seven, but he waited and waited, and Gu Siting was still thriving.

Could it be because Ming Yao was a divine doctor? Was she involved in some way?

Otherwise, there was no way Gu Siting would still be lively, expanding his business empire!

Gu Yanyu waited for Gu Siting’s call to disconnect automatically, then he immediately turned off his phone.

At the Gu Corporation.

Gu Siting’s face was overcast, and he almost smashed his phone to the ground.

Damned woman!

It was bad enough that she appeared before him every so often, but she also frequently mingled with people he loathed and detested!

Didn’t she know what kind of person Gu Yanyu was?

…

Liu Yun learned that Ming Yao had a narrow escape from death and wasn’t surprised at all; rather, she felt somewhat panicked.

She suddenly regretted not getting rid of that button earlier.

Yes, it was she who had pushed Ming Ying into the lake, and during their scuffle, she had torn a button off Ming Ying’s clothing.

She hadn’t thrown away the button but had kept it ever since.

Every year on Ming Ying’s death anniversary, she would take out the button, and seeing it would remind her of the gruesome sight of Ming Ying being pulled from the water.

She wasn’t scared at all; on the contrary, she felt a repulsive thrill.

That wretch was finally dead!

The button bore her fingerprints, and Liu Yun worried that Ming Yao would go to the police, so she rushed to the airport overnight.

Just as she was about to leave the country by plane, the police found her and took her to the station.

The case was reported by Ming Yao.

That very button had indeed been on Ming Ying’s clothing when she was pushed into the lake, bearing both her and Ming Ying’s fingerprints.

Once arrested, Liu Yun was no longer as frightened.

The next day, she saw Ming Yao while waiting in the detention cell.

“You joined the Nangong Family to avenge your mother, right? Yes, I was the one who pushed that vixen into the lake!”

“After my younger brother died, she couldn’t stay put, ensnaring my eldest brother, and even tried to seduce my husband; do you know why I wanted to kill her?”

“Because she killed my child!”

After marrying Nangong Hong, Liu Yun hadn’t been able to conceive for many years.

So Old Master Nangong found a surrogate, which gave them the twins Nangong Heng and Nangong Hao.

Strangely, not two years after Nangong Heng and Nangong Hao were born, she actually got pregnant.

But that child–
