Chapter 162: Chapter 161: Mrs. Gu, Have You Made Enough Trouble?
The man, who was always cold and prideful, rarely smiling or joking, somehow managed to let his thin lips curve into an extremely faint smile while looking at something on the woman’s phone.
From Ming Yao’s angle, it seemed he was smiling at the girl.
She had been with him for several months and had never seen him smile at her like that, had she?
Wasn’t he coaxing her when she was angry?
How come he was now meeting another girl behind her back, seemingly in a secret rendezvous?
An unusual emotion rose within Ming Yao’s heart, and before she could sort it out, she appeared at the corner, her heels clicking against the floor.
...
As she got closer, she heard the girl say to him, “Brother Ting, it would be great if Sister Shi Ying were here. I heard you married Miss Ming because Grandma Gu insisted on it?”
Enshrouded in the pale blue smoke, the man’s profile was hidden and unfathomable, it was impossible to guess what he was thinking.
“I understand how you feel. If you can’t marry Sister Shi Ying, marrying anyone else doesn’t matter.”
Shi Ying?
Who was that?
Ming Yao’s slender eyebrows slightly furrowed.
She thought the scumbag of a man had a blank slate for a heart, but it turned out to be a newspaper!
“They say Miss Ming is arrogant and domineering and even made you wear a green hat. Brother Ting, can you tolerate her—”
The girl had not finished speaking when the smoking man glanced at her, his voice deepening, “Yan Youling, you talk too much.”
Yan Youling pouted, “I’m just feeling indignant for Brother Ting. The arrogant and domineering Miss Ming of the Ming Family, where does she stand a chance with you?”
Ming Yao, with a beaming smile, walked up behind Gu Siting, her slender arm naturally looping around the man’s.
The man seemed to momentarily pause, and then realizing who it was, turned to look at the woman beside him.
Seeing it was Ming Yao, the motion to remove her hand ceased.
His narrow dark eyes settled on her bright and chilly face, mysterious and dangerous.
“Brother Ting, you just sent me a whole shopping mall last night, and today you’ve already found a new darling?” Ming Yao’s eyebrows and eyes held a slight tantrum, her lips curved seductively.
She imitated other women’s coquettish way of calling him ‘Brother Ting.’
The sudden appearance of Ming Yao stunned Yan Youling.
When women look at other women, they usually scrutinize with a critical eye.
But with Ming Yao, Yan Youling found not a single flaw to pick on.
The temperature inside the Hot Spring Club was comfortable, and Ming Yao was planning to continue soaking later. She wore a champagne-gold silk satin slip dress, revealing her pale and tender shoulders and arms, and her beautiful clavicle was delicate and sexy.
When she smiled with those lips curled, the curve of her clavicle was so beautiful it looked like it could cradle fish.
Besides having a great figure, her small melon seed face was stunningly beautiful. Touched by the warmth of the hot springs, a delicate blush bloomed like a red rose unfolding, wilful and glamorous.
This woman was like a poppy, too beautiful and too bewitching.
She did not look like any proper socialite.
Could she be the star of the Hot Spring Club?
Contempt and disdain appeared in Yan Youling’s eyes, “Brother Ting is not the kind of person you’re talking about.”
Giving a shopping mall to a woman of the night, didn’t that make him a fool?
Even when Sister Shi Ying was around, Brother Ting never did such a thing.
What does this woman count for then?
“So, what kind of person is he?” Ming Yao lightly finger-combed her still damp hair, revealing her swan-like elegant and fair neck, her black hair and red lips drew a mesmerizing outline, “I’ve seen him shameless in bed, have you?”
“You—you—you—” As if never expecting Ming Yao to dare say such shameless words, Yan Youling’s pretty face flushed with anger, “Brother Ting would never fancy a woman like you!”
Ming Yao’s slender figure leaned against the man, “On the contrary, he’s thinking about how to sleep with me every single day!”
Yan Youling, “…”
When the woman leaned on his arm, Gu Siting felt a soft touch.
His Adam’s apple moved, and his other hand took out a cigarette, ready to light it.
But the woman beside him took the lighter from his hand first.
She moved closer to him and gently pressed the lighter.
A faint click was heard as a pale blue flame emerged.
It illuminated the faces of the woman and the man, with their gazes meeting in the light of the fire.
The woman tilted her head slightly, her skin pale and beautiful, with a bright and enchanting smile as if she were a little vixen that had just come out of the forest at midnight.
The man looked down slightly, features taut, dark eyes gloomy and profound, as if there was no one else in his eyes besides the woman.
“Brother Ting, tell me, do you choose that little sister, or do you choose me?” Ming Yao’s hand holding the lighter gently poked the man’s chest, followed by his sensually moving Adam’s apple.
Yan Youling was utterly dumbfounded.
Brother Ting has a severe obsession with cleanliness; even being Yanxi’s sister, she didn’t dare to have any physical contact with him.
This woman was really too bold!
Just when Yan Youling thought Gu Siting would twist the hand poking his chest, the man grabbed the woman’s slender waist and pulled her into his embrace, his long hand tightly circling her waist as if she would run away if he let go slightly.
He looked down at her, his dark eyes swirling with colors she couldn’t understand, his voice low and slightly husky, “Mrs. Gu, have you had enough?”
What?
Mrs. Gu?
Yan Youling stared, completely flabbergasted.
After Ming Yao was pulled into the man’s arms, she did not struggle and instead snuggled into his chest, greedily inhaling his scent.
Damn, even tainted with the smell of smoke, it was still so fragrant.
He must be poisoned, right?
Ming Yao curved her red lips, offering a bewitching smile, “I’m arrogant and overbearing, even cheated on you openly; how could I be worthy of being your Mrs. Gu?”
“You, you, you—” Yan Youling stared at Ming Yao in disbelief, “You’re the Miss Ming from the Ming family?”
“Isn’t that so? I don’t know what’s gotten into your Brother Ting lately, but he seems to fancy me quite a bit; what do you think should be done about it?”
Yan Youling had never seen such a provoking woman!
“Brother Ting, weren’t you fooled by her appearance?”
Gu Siting looked coldly at Yan Youling, his profound eyes gradually showing a hint of impatience, “Youling, call her sister-in-law, and another thing, you seem to be meddling too much in my business.”
Tonight was a gathering organized by Yanxi. Yan Youling came over from the capital and insisted on following her brother out for fun.
Gu Siting felt a bit bored after playing cards for a while and came out to smoke.
Yan Youling followed him and tried everything to strike up a conversation, but at first, he didn’t pay much attention.
It was only when she took out her phone and showed him the photos she took with Yanxi at Imperial Garden, featuring Little Snowball, that he showed some faint interest.
Seeing Gu Siting’s hand around Ming Yao’s slender waist, Yan Youling’s eyes reddened, “Anyway, I won’t acknowledge her as my sister-in-law; she’s like a vixen, not worthy at all!”
After saying that, Yan Youling ran off quickly.
Once Yan Youling ran away, Ming Yao forcefully shook off the hand that the man had around her waist.
Gu Siting, “…”
