Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon’s Reluctant Love
Chapter 402 - Chapter 402 Chapter 401 Arguing for Her

Chapter 402: Chapter 401: Arguing for Her Chapter 402: Chapter 401: Arguing for Her Since Gu Siting had dragged her into the private room, Ming Yao no longer held back.

She looked towards Shi Ying openly and frankly.

Last time in Italy, it was just a fleeting glance, and she didn’t get a good look.

Now in the private room, she saw the full picture of Shi Ying.

Her long, black hair draped over her shoulders, her small face as big as a palm without makeup, her skin was clear and white, exuding a pure and untainted beauty, like snowy mountains, innocent and moving.

No wonder she could make several noblemen of the capital spin around her, indeed a sight to brighten one’s eyes.

The type of ‘white moonlight’ in a man’s heart.

Ming Yao had no contact with Shi Ying before and didn’t know what her temperament was like.

But from Gu Siting’s past descriptions of her, she felt that Shi Ying was a woman of soft exterior and firm interior, who had a sense of loyalty and was a heroine among women.

For her lover, for her friends, she would sacrifice herself.

Seeing Ming Yao look at her, Shi Ying also looked back at Ming Yao.

Ming Yao and Shi Ying were completely different types. Ming Yao was alluring and dazzling like a blooming red rose, bright and scorching, carrying an air of languid coolness.

After their eyes met, they smiled at each other.

“Hello, I am Ming Yao.”

“I am Siew Ying.”

Seeing Shi Ying wasn’t displeased with the arrival of Ming Yao, Yanxi didn’t say anything more.

Gu Siting pulled Ming Yao to sit beside him and asked the waiter to get her a bowl and chopsticks.

Ming Yao frowned, “I really have eaten already.”

“Eat some more,” Gu Siting served Ming Yao some of her favorite dishes.

Jih Feng looked at Gu Siting and Ming Yao, clicking his tongue, “Fourth Brother, you brought your wife here to flaunt your affection, huh! Hey, that’s not right, didn’t you two have a falling out a while ago?”

All of a sudden, Gu Siting responded, “Isn’t it very normal for young people in love to quarrel and fuss?”

“Fourth Brother, you’re almost in your thirties, not so young anymore, right?”

Gu Siting looked at the brilliantly charming face of the woman beside him, “As long as my woman is young, it’s fine.”

Ming Yao gave Gu Siting a glare, “Don’t talk nonsense, I have nothing to do with you now.”

Gu Siting, who got publicly contradicted, “…”

Siew Ying was still somewhat unclear about the relationship between Gu Siting and Ming Yao, she looked at Yanxi with a puzzled expression.

Yanxi whispered in her ear, “Fourth Brother’s ex-wife, but don’t worry, he only married her because he thought you were gone.”

Shi Ying looked at the handsome and bewitching man beside her, “Why do you always bring up Mr. Gu and me? Weren’t we just friends before?”

“No, you and Fourth Brother were each other’s first love.”

Shi Ying turned her head to look at Gu Siting.

He was talking to Ming Yao, a hint of tender indulgence in his deep and dark eyes. His facial contours were as if crafted meticulously by an artisan, handsome and perfect.

He appeared mature and aloof, emanating a cool yet powerful aura.

An existence one couldn’t easily overlook.

Seeing Shi Ying look at Gu Siting, a complicated expression surfaced in Yanxi’s peach blossom eyes, “Sister Shi Ying, don’t feel bad, Fourth Brother surely still has you in his heart…”

Shi Ying interrupted what Yanxi had yet to finish, “It’s all in the past, there’s no need to bring it up again. Moreover, my heart now only holds Siew Wei.”

“Siew Wei’s heart, when it’s time to be donated to Fourth Brother, is also a kind of fate,” Yanxi comforted.

Shi Ying seemed to think of something, her eyes filling with a thin layer of mist.

“If I could, I really want Siew Wei to live well.”

Seeing the tears sliding from the corner of Shi Ying’s eyes, Yanxi hurriedly took a tissue and wiped the tears from her eyes.

Ming Yao, although listening to Gu Siting speak, had her eyes constantly glancing at Shi Ying and Yanxi from the corner of her eyes.

Yanxi whispered something in Shi Ying’s ear that she didn’t catch, but seeing Yanxi wiping Shi Ying’s tears away was more than she could bear.

With a smack, she threw her chopsticks onto the table.

“Yanxi, don’t forget that you’re a married man!” Ming Yao was fuming, recalling the message she received from Wanwan that day, saying Yanxi hadn’t even been taking her calls lately.

Even if they were not married, but once married, shouldn’t he at least be responsible to his wife?

After the fake pregnancy was exposed, Wanwan didn’t pester him to death, it was he who told Wanwan to have another child!

Damn it, after sleeping with Wanwan again and again, now that Shi Ying is back, he’s starting to ignore Wanwan?

No, with Shi Ying’s return, why is Yanxi showing such affection?

Could it be that Yanxi’s former White Moonlight was Shi Ying?

As soon as Ming Yao spoke, there was a moment of silence in the private room.

The atmosphere became tense and filled with an uncanny stillness.

Yanxi, coming to his senses, his handsome face turned from pale to purple.

He stood up from his chair, looking displeased at Ming Yao, “What exactly have I done to warrant your warning? Sister Shi Ying grew up with us, and she’s Fourth Brother’s great benefactor. She has completely lost her memory now; what’s wrong with us keeping her company?”

“Oh, so Xia Yiwan came to you complaining? Then tell her when you see her, if she doesn’t want to be with me properly, she can get lost!”

Ming Yao’s expression darkened.

Her hands clenched into fists.

“Wanwan still doesn’t know about your Sister Shi Ying’s return; you’re so eager to clear the relationship, it must be your own guilty conscience, right?”

“Ming Yao, don’t be fucking unreasonable. Don’t think that Fourth Brother will take your crap, I certainly won’t!”

With a bang, a cup shattered on the ground, the crisp sound of breaking echoing through the room.

Gu Siting stood up from his chair, looking at the gloomy-faced Yanxi, with a cold voice he said, “Yanxi, aren’t you going a bit too far? Ming Yao is mine; how can you talk to her like that?”

“Fourth Brother, did I provoke her first? She was the one who made nasty comments and twisted my relationship with Sister Shi Ying; can’t I even defend myself?”

The atmosphere in the private room was thick with tension as Fu Yunshen and Jih Feng stepped up to mediate.

“It’s all a misunderstanding,” they said.

“Ming Yao, Yanxi and Sister Shi Ying are just friends, not the kind of relationship you’re thinking of; he wouldn’t do anything to wrong Xia Yiwan.”

Ming Yao pressed her lips tightly and said nothing.

Seeing how affectionately Yanxi treated Shi Ying, even as an outsider, she felt uncomfortable, not to mention how Wanwan would feel if she saw it!

Could this be the so-called soulmate?

Shi Ying, not expecting Ming Yao and Yanxi to argue over her, pursed her lips, her complexion slightly pale, “I’m sorry, my presence has caused trouble for you all. I’m feeling a bit unwell and will return to the hospital now.”

Shi Ying picked up her purse and walked toward the exit of the private room. Passing by Ming Yao, she stopped, whispering to her softly, “Miss Ming, please reassure your friend. Young Master Yan and I are innocent; I have a boyfriend whom I deeply love, and I won’t be moved by any man besides him. Young Master Yan sees me merely as a friend, it’s not the sordid affair you’re imagining!”

Seeing Shi Ying leave, Yanxi grew even more infuriated.

“Fourth Brother, Shi Ying lost her memory, she’s unfamiliar with the city. Aren’t you going to hurry and escort her?”
