Chapter 98: Chapter 98: Encounter at the Bar (1)
“`
Gu Corporation.
It wasn’t until eight o’clock in the evening that Gu Siting was still in his office with no sign of leaving work.
That was until a phone call from Yanxi came through.
“Fourth Brother, Yunshen is back. I’ve arranged to meet him at Charm Bar. Are you coming?”
Fu Yunshen was originally the eldest son of the Fu Family, one of the Four Major Families in the imperial capital. But five years ago, it was revealed that he was not the biological child of the Fu Family. They found their real eldest son, and Fu Yunshen was expelled from the family. Afterwards, he went abroad to study, started from scratch, and became a legend among the new generation of young talents on Wall Street in the United States. Now, he is the hottest financial tycoon on Wall Street.
Being able to stand firm in the financial world and become a legendary figure required not only a brilliant mind with an extremely high IQ but also swift and extraordinary measures.
Gu Siting was able to become the head of the Gu Family, and Fu Yunshen played a certain role in boosting this outcome.
“Tell Yunshen I’ll be right there.”
Gu Siting put down the pen he was using to sign documents and got up from his seat, cellphone in hand.
Once again, he looked at the phone screen.
He could no longer recall how many times he had checked his phone.
That damned woman hadn’t contacted him all day!
After what happened last night, she walked away without a backward glance, not even a message?
What did she take him for?
Some random man she could have for a dollar?
Damn it!
She had humiliated him like this, and he truly wished he could strangle her!
…
Ming Yao didn’t want to go back to Imperial Garden directly. She planned to let loose tonight and return tomorrow as the little maid.
The main reason was that she didn’t want to see Tyrant Gu so soon, the man who had left her body covered in bruises.
She did her makeup to hide the marks on her body using a powder puff.
She chose a red V-neck long dress from the closet and put it on.
The dress was cinched at the waist, and one side had a high slit, which revealed Ming Yao’s long, fair, and straight legs as she moved.
She styled her long hair into big, wavy curls, which complemented her small, delicate melon seed-shaped face. Her smoky eye makeup made her almond-shaped eyes appear even longer and more enchanting. Her skin was pale white, and the black hair fell like satin, setting off her beautifully shaped lips so vividly red, they seemed to drip with color. The contrast of black and white, red against fair skin, starkly captivated the attention of any onlooker.
Jing Hang looked at Ming Yao leaving the room, and he couldn’t help but exclaim three times, “Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!”
“Senior sister, you’re absolutely killing it!” Jing Hang was once again astonished by his senior sister’s stunning beauty.
Ming Yao rolled her eyes in speechless exasperation, “Okay, okay, you’re exaggerating.”
“I really think from the bottom of my heart that senior sister is beautiful. No wonder your nominal husband couldn’t control himself last night and went all—”
Now, just hearing about Tyrant Gu gave Ming Yao a headache, “Can we not talk about him tonight, okay?”
“Fine, fine, we won’t mention him.”
Jing Hang drove Ming Yao to Charm Bar.
As they were nearing the entrance of the bar, Ming Yao seemed to think of something. She propped her chin with her fingers, her expression lazily pondering, “I almost forgot, I haven’t divorced Tyrant Gu yet. I’m still his wife in name. Showing up at the bar like this, it’s likely to reach his ears by tomorrow, and he might think I’m unfaithful, parading around making him wear the green hat.”
Jing Hang, “…Senior sister, you really seem to be caring more and more about what your nominal husband thinks.”
“I have to care, after all, I need him to survive.”
Jing Hang sighed, got out of the car, and took out a golden fox mask that covered half of the face from the trunk, “If you wear this, no one should be able to recognize you, right?”
Ming Yao put on the mask.
Jing Hang took a glance and couldn’t help but let out another ‘Holy shit’.
Her black hair and red lips were brilliantly vivid, unrestrained yet not without a sense of mystery—absolutely stunning!
