Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon’s Reluctant Love
Chapter 405 - Chapter 405 Chapter 404 Coaxing Her to His Apartment in the

Chapter 405: Chapter 404: Coaxing Her to His Apartment in the Middle of the Night Chapter 405: Chapter 404: Coaxing Her to His Apartment in the Middle of the Night Gu Siting saw Yun Zhuo sitting on the sofa, and without asking Ming Yao for her opinion, he sat down next to Yun Zhuo.

Ming Yao, with a stiff expression, sat opposite the two men.

Yun Zhuo had brought dishes from the hotel that Ming Yao used to love, and he served her a bit of each.

“Xiao Yao, you are too thin, eat more,” he said.

Ming Yao pursed her lips, “Thank you, you should eat more too.”

Gu Siting, seeing that the dishes Yun Zhuo brought were rather light, said coldly, “Yaoyao likes to eat flavorful dishes, what, don’t you know?”

Gu Siting put some sliced lamb into Ming Yao’s bowl.

Ming Yao’s predecessor’s stomach wasn’t very good, she couldn’t eat too spicy food, but after being reborn in this body, her stomach was fine, and she didn’t avoid any foods.

In fact, she could handle both light and spicy foods.

Ming Yao glanced at Gu Siting, “Eat for yourself, you don’t need to serve me.”

Gu Siting’s thin lips were tightly pressed into a straight line.

What, her Senior Brother can serve her food, but he can’t?

A thin layer of annoyance bubbled up in Gu Siting’s dark eyes as he helped himself to a few chopsticks of hot pot.

Ming Yao frowned at him, “You can’t eat spicy food.”

“The bland dishes your Senior Brother bought do not suit my taste,” he retorted.

Ming Yao thought: It was not that the light dishes didn’t suit his taste, but that the person who bought them irritated him, right?

Xia Yiwan and Zhong Ling silently ate their food without uttering a word.

The tension between the two men was palpable!

Somehow finishing the meal, Ming Yao found an excuse and directly sent both men packing.

She was considering whether to move back to the Nangong Family residence?

Zhong Ling and Xia Yiwan were also about to leave. Before Yanxi got into the car, Ming Yao pulled her aside.

“Wanwan, how has Yanxi been treating you lately?”

When it came to Yanxi, Xia Yiwan didn’t know what to say.

When things were good, he could lift her up to heaven.

When they weren’t, she felt like she was descending into hell.

“He brought home a bouquet of flowers last night, said he has been a bit busy with work lately and asked me not to mind, promising to spend time with me once he’s less busy.”

Ming Yao bit her lower lip, “Do you believe him?”

“I don’t know,” Xia Yiwan bit her lip, feeling helpless, “I just find myself falling for him more and more. As long as he hasn’t lied to me, as long as there are no other women outside, I can accept it.”

Ming Yao thought of Yanxi’s attitude towards Shi Ying; she really had no idea what was on Yanxi’s mind, perhaps it was all in her head?

Without evidence, she should not meddle in other people’s marriages.

“I hope Yanxi treats you well, but in addition to cultivating a good marriage, you should also focus on building your career!”

Xia Yiwan nodded, “I have been planning to move the Only Love Cosmetics business development to the capital.”

“That’s a good idea.”

…

Ming Yao returned to the apartment, and didn’t run into the two men, which allowed her to breathe a sigh of relief.

She hadn’t felt it before, but suddenly, having one live across from her and the other next door, the pressure was overwhelming.

Ming Yao took a bath in the bathroom, applied a facial mask, and put herself to bed early.

After returning to his apartment, Gu Siting paid close attention to the movements next door.

He stood on the balcony, looking at Ming Yao’s room.

The lights were out.

It was only just after nine o’clock, was she sleeping this early?

He suddenly missed the days when she was Mrs. Gu, and he was in the Imperial Garden. She would wait for him to get into bed before she could fall asleep.

If her insomnia wasn’t cured, maybe his chances would be greater!

Gu Siting didn’t know how to touch Ming Yao’s heart when faced with a formidable rival. Taking out his phone, he intended to call Yanxi, but knowing Yanxi’s love life was a mess, he retracted the dialed call.

He posted on an emotional advice forum instead.

Title: [How to Defeat a Love Rival and Win Back Your Ex-Wife?]

After posting the message, Gu Siting leaned on the balcony and smoked a cigarette.

About four or five minutes later, he checked the post.

1st floor: Buddy, don’t you have any clue why she became your ex-wife? Could it be that your kidney isn’t working well!

2nd floor: If your love rival’s kidney is functioning, maybe you should just give up!

Gu Siting’s face darkened.

Poster: Kidney totally beats love rival.

5th floor: Given how you blow your own trumpet, Poster, how did you end up making her your ex-wife in the first place?

6th floor: Don’t hit the Poster any further upstairs, let’s give him some advice instead!

7th floor: Women love surprises, send flowers, cars, houses, diamonds.

Poster: She is already a rich young lady.

10th floor: Maybe the rich young lady has a bit of a dominant personality, perhaps she likes cute puppies?

11th floor: Poster, use the concubine strategy! For example, pretend to catch a cold to gain her sympathy.

Gu Siting stared at the suggestion from the 11th floor for a while and then stepped into the bathroom.

He showered in cold water until he started sneezing.

…

Ming Yao was groggily asleep when her phone rang.

The one thing she hated was being disturbed while sleeping.

She hung up the call.

But in a short while, it rang again.

Ming Yao furrowed her brows and reached for her phone.

“Hello…” she said impatiently.

On the other end of the line, Gu Siting sensed Ming Yao’s grouchy awakening. He remained silent for a few seconds before speaking with a hoarse voice, “Yaoyao, do you have any cold medicine? I feel very uncomfortable… Cough, cough…”

Ming Yao, “…”

“My head hurts terribly, and my heart is also inexplicably in pain…”

The last shreds of sleep in Ming Yao’s mind instantly dissipated.

When she thought of his heart condition, she couldn’t remain indifferent.

Putting on a robe, she rushed to the apartment next door.

After ringing the doorbell and waiting for quite a while, the man finally opened the door.

The handsome man’s face was flushed abnormally; he really did seem to have caught a cold.

“Yaoyao, the password is your birthday, from now on you don’t have to ring the doorbell when you come over.”

Ming Yao ignored Gu Siting, and went into the kitchen to pour a cup of warm boiled water. Just as she was about to turn around, she found the man standing right behind her.

She handed the medicine to him, “Take it quickly!”

Gu Siting received the medicine, but he didn’t take it. Instead, he put it aside, “Yaoyao, do you have any sugar?”

Ming Yao found it somewhat amusing, “Don’t tell me you’re afraid of the bitterness?”

“I had too much bitterness when I was younger, I want something sweet.”

Ming Yao pursed her lips, “I didn’t bring sugar.”

Gu Siting stared at her for a few seconds, then still lifted his head and took the medicine.

After swallowing it, he approached her, supporting himself with his hands on either side of her, looking down at her as his hot breath sprayed on her little face. “Yaoyao, I feel a pain in my chest.”

Ming Yao wanted to take the man’s pulse, but he instead grasped her wrist and pressed her hand against his solid, muscular chest.

“It’s not that kind of pain. It’s the suffocating, achy feeling I get when I see you with your Senior Brother.”

Ming Yao glared at the man, “Don’t sweet talk me. You said last time that you would take me to see the person who donated their heart to you, and you haven’t yet. Senior Brother found a heart that matches you; it might come in handy. Can you please stop causing him trouble?”
