Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon’s Reluctant Love -
Chapter 533 - Chapter 533 Chapter 531 She Started a New Life
Chapter 533: Chapter 531: She Started a New Life Chapter 533: Chapter 531: She Started a New Life Watching Dai Na’s face turn the color of a pig’s liver, her pupils constricted, refusing to admit anything, Gu Siting’s heart revealed a trace of suspicion.
She was almost choked to the point of suffocation by him, there was no need to be so stubbornly unyielding at the brink of death!
Gu Siting pushed Dai Na away with one hand, looking down at her as she fell to the ground, his black eyes dangerously narrowed, “Really not you?”
Dai Na shook her head emotionally, “I’m about to leave, why would I do something cruel to her? Besides, you have dirt on me, have I gone mad to want to bring such scorn upon myself?”
Gu Siting stared intently at Dai Na, not missing any expression on her face.
She seemed to really not be lying!
If it wasn’t her, why did the person who splashed the sulfuric acid say it was Dai Na’s command?
Gu Siting’s slender fingers rested on his chin, his brows furrowed in thought.
Seeing his silence, Dai Na’s face turned pale, and she trembled, “If I touched Ming Yao, may I be struck by lightning and die a terrible death!”
Gu Siting’s thin, crimson lips tightened, and he waved his hand, “You may leave!”
Dai Na took one look at the man who seemed like a Hell Asura and did not dare to stay a second longer, grabbing her suitcase and fleeing in panic!
When Lu Zhou got the call to find Gu Siting, Gu Siting was standing in front of a floor-to-ceiling window, smoking.
The sharp contours of his face were shrouded in the pale green smoke, looking incomprehensibly deep.
“Your Excellency.”
Gu Siting, standing tall, did not move, like a statue devoid of warmth, utterly indifferent, “Found those two people yet?”
Lu Zhou, with a grave face, replied, “Not yet, they are familiar with the capital’s routes, they’ve avoided surveillance, and since they were wrapped up tightly, we couldn’t make out their faces, it’s difficult to tell who they are!”
When Lu Zhou had just arrived and learned that Dai Na had already left, it seemed that Princess Dai Na was not the person behind the scenes?
“Your Excellency suspects someone else harmed Miss Ming?”
Gu Siting hummed softly.
His brows were tightly knit, a dark shadow flickering in his black eyes.
Was it someone sent by Old Lady Gong?
Based on his knowledge of Old Lady Gong over the past few years, and her devotion to fasting and prayer, she shouldn’t resort to such despicable means, should she?
To ruin a woman’s appearance, how malicious and ruthless one must be?
Gu Siting did not believe it was someone from his own circle, having just taught Gong Yu and Dai Na a lesson, it was unlikely someone would dare to target someone he cared about so soon!
Was it an enemy Ming Yao had made herself?
But no matter who it was, the mastermind behind the curtains had achieved their goal.
They had succeeded in making Ming Yao hate him!
Thinking of her cold gaze, and her icy attitude, Gu Siting’s breathing unconsciously grew heavier.
“Keep searching!”
Lu Zhou nodded, “Yes, sir!”
The next day.
After finishing his official duties, Gu Siting, carrying a basket of fruit, headed to the hospital.
He stopped just outside Si Ye’s hospital room.
In the room, it wasn’t just Si Ye; Ming Yao was also present.
Ming Yao sat beside the bed, changing the dressing on Si Ye’s shoulder.
After the change, Si Ye leaned back against the headboard, lifting his deep eyes to look at Ming Yao, “Little Yao, have you decided? Are you willing to give me a chance?”
Ming Yao’s eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, she had barely slept in the past two days, constantly thinking about this matter.
She really didn’t want to entangle with Gu Siting anymore.
He was the lofty President, even if he divorced Dai Na, the difference between them was still as vast as that between clouds and mud.
She was even less willing to let herself and her children be caught in dangerous whirlpools.
Perhaps, only by starting a new life could she truly draw a line between herself and Gu Siting.
Si Ye was a very suitable candidate.
He gave her three months to adjust, and if she still couldn’t come to like him, he would let go.
Such a relationship wouldn’t put any pressure on her.
Ming Yao looked into Si Ye’s deep and tender gaze, and she nodded her head, “Okay, I agree.”
Upon hearing Ming Yao’s words, Si Ye, who had always been graceful and calm, revealed a joyful smile on his handsome face.
The lean palm firmly grasped Ming Yao’s delicate and fair hand.
Standing at the doorstep of the hospital room, Gu Siting saw the scene inside, and he felt as though he had been struck by lightning.
The narrow and long black eyes stared tightly at the hands clasped together, and from the depths of his chest, it felt as though an invisible black hand stretched out and clenched his heart, leaving him gasping for air.
He wanted to step forward and pull their hands apart, but his legs were as if filled with heavy lead, preventing him from moving a step.
He didn’t know how long it took before he finally strode away.
Because he was the President, he wore a mask to the hospital fearing recognition.
Even so, with his tall figure and outstanding demeanor, when he came out of the hospital, he was the most noticed one.
Some whispered among themselves:
—-That man looks a lot like Mr. President!
—-Are you seeing things? Why would the President come here?
—-If the President came to the hospital, shouldn’t they clear the place first?
Gu Siting walked out of the hospital, his black coat and cold, handsome appearance made him look like an exquisite painting in the misty drizzle.
The distance from the hospital’s main entrance to the parking lot wasn’t far, yet it felt like he had walked eighty thousand li.
Every step was incredibly heavy.
She had a new life now, and there was another man by her side.
He ought to offer the same blessing now as when he had suggested breaking up.
However, when he truly saw her clasping hands with another man, he realized that he couldn’t be that magnanimous at all.
But what if he couldn’t?
She was free, with the right to make her own choices!
Gu Siting got into the car, his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly, the narrow black eyes flaring up with scarlet, his whole being reaching an extreme state of agitation, as if a bloody chasm had been torn open at the bottom of his heart, with the cold wind blowing ceaselessly into it.
Aside from pain, it seemed he couldn’t find any other feeling!
…
In the hospital room.
Si Ye glanced at the hospital room door where a basket of fruit was placed, then he turned to look at Ming Yao, his voice hoarse, “It seemed Mr. President just came by.”
Ming Yao nodded, “I know.”
The presence of Gu Siting was potent, and she noticed him the instant he appeared. She had glanced at him from the corner of her eye, his profile was sharp and rugged, and the moment her hand was held by Si Ye, she feared he might burst in and beat Si Ye up.
But thankfully, he conquered his impulses with rationality.
It also meant that he had come to terms with reality!
“Little Yao, don’t worry, I will take good care of you and the children from now on,” he said.
Ming Yao’s lips curved slightly as she nodded, “Thank you.”
…
After Si Ye was discharged, Ming Yao was invited to attend a welcome-back dinner hosted by the Shang family for their daughter who had returned to the country.
Years ago, the Shang family emigrated overseas and only in recent years returned to their home country, becoming the leading figure in the cosmetics industry.
Ming Yao wanted to initiate a collaboration between Only Love Cosmetics and Shang Corporation. She had met Madam Shang several times, and although the contract hadn’t been signed yet, she had quite a good impression of the formidable Madam Shang.
Madam Shang became a widow early on, with a daughter who was always unwell, and she had never made a public appearance in the past years.
This was her first public appearance.
The ladies and daughters of the capital city were all very curious about this Miss Shang.
