Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Felt Compassion for Her
Gu Siting quickly remembered.
That evening at Yonghe Pavilion’s restroom, the woman had leaned against him on her own initiative, and he had grabbed her wrist and flung her aside.
How come the wrist of this little maid in front of him, delicate and soft, seemed so similar to that woman’s?
Was it his illusion?
Aunt Zhong, who was in front, coughed when she saw Gu Siting holding onto Ming Yao’s wrist without letting go.
“Fourth Master, the car is driving smoothly now.”
Gu Siting hurriedly released Ming Yao’s wrist and pushed her away at once.
It was really strange; this little maid had stirred a sense of compassion in him.
It must be because she almost jumped off a cliff to commit suicide, and the guilt in his heart was playing tricks on him!
Afterward, Gu Siting didn’t spare Ming Yao another glance, his chiseled profile tense, handsome and sharp, exuding an aura of ‘Keep Away From Me.’
Upon arriving at Imperial Garden, Gu Siting immediately pushed open the car door and got out.
Ming Yao was woken up by Aunt Zhong, rubbed her eyes, and got out of the car with Little Snowball in her arms.
“Fujin, you should go back to your room and rest early, see you tomorrow,” said Aunt Zhong.
Ming Yao nodded at Aunt Zhong.
She put Little Snowball on the bed and sat down in front of the dresser to remove her makeup.
Seeing her reveal her naturally beautiful and radiant face, Little Snowball meowed continuously and wagged its tail vigorously.
It was as if it were saying, “Mommy is the most beautiful in the world.”
Ming Yao took out a little treat from her bag and rewarded Little Snowball with one.
After eating, Little Snowball obediently lay down on the bed and waited for Ming Yao.
After taking a bath, Ming Yao took out the jacket she had brought back from Gu Siting and lay down on the bed to sleep.
Little Snowball snuggled into Ming Yao’s arms and let out a meow.
Mommy, isn’t it sweet to sleep with me in your arms?
Ming Yao held Little Snowball behind her and patted its head, “Behave, go to sleep.”
Little Snowball meowed with grievance.
But now that mommy had spoken, it didn’t dare compete with the male master’s jacket any longer.
Mommy cares so much about daddy, she can’t sleep without his jacket every night.
…
The next day.
Ming Yao was awakened by a series of ringing from her cellphone.
Opening her eyes and seeing the first light of dawn, she remembered that she was now playing the role of a little maid, and quickly got up from the bed.
The phone was still ringing incessantly.
She picked up the phone and saw it was a call from someone saved as Xiao Zhong.
Xiao Zhong, named Zhong Ling, was the little assistant of Ming Yao, an eighteenth-tier artist.
The moment the call connected, Zhong Ling’s anxious voice came through, “Sister Yao, your phone finally got through! Something big happened, you’ve hit the hot searches!”
“Director Jiang blew up and ordered you to get to the company fast!”
The Ming Family made their fortune in real estate and later set up an Entertainment Company, personally managed by Jiang Biyun, not a large-scale business, with just over a dozen artists under its umbrella.
Since Ming Wan returned to the country to join the entertainment industry, all resources had been concentrated on her.
Ming Yao had thrown a fit to enter the entertainment industry, and it was only through Old Madam Ming finding Jiang Biyun that she reluctantly allowed her into the company.
She shared an agent with Ming Wan, but the agent only looked after Ming Wan and left Ming Yao with minor villain roles or those beyond the lead six.
Ming Yao had just woken up, her voice still lazily hoarse, “What happened?”
“You’re on the hot searches, nearly the whole internet is scolding you.”
Ming Yao hummed, “I’ll take a look first.”
Ming Yao’s calm tone stunned Zhong Ling for a moment.
This seemed a bit different from the Sister Yao who used to get irritable at any trouble!
Ming Yao hung up the phone, sat cross-legged on the bed, and opened Weibo.
She only had a few thousand followers originally, but as soon as she hit the hot searches, her followers increased rapidly.
However, almost all of them were cursing her.
