Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon's Reluctant Love-Chapter 134 - : Fourth Master Cancels Important Plans for His Wife

Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Fourth Master Cancels Important Plans for His Wife

Gu Corporation was located in the golden financial district of Li City, where the land was worth its weight in gold, with its impressive eighty-eight-story building.

At nine o’clock in the morning, the glass door of the conference room opened automatically, and a line of suit-clad elites walked out, among them the tallest man with the strongest presence was the one in the center.

“Fourth Master, it’s been a pleasure working with you,” said one.

Gu Siting shook hands with the slightly older man.

After seeing off the clients, Gu Siting strode toward his office.

Lu Zhou followed behind him and reported, “You have the Global Finance Conference at the International Convention and Exhibition Center at ten, lunch with Director Li of Jinlai at twelve, a visit to the resort project in West City at two, and a dinner with Director Zhou at six to discuss cooperation.”

...

After Lu Zhou finished reporting and saw that the man had no response, he raised his head to look at him.

The man seemed lost in thought, his sword-like eyebrows slightly furrowed.

“Fourth Master?”

Gu Siting’s mind conjured the dim eyes of the Little Swindler when she found out he wasn’t going to Li University and the words she said:

— The Ming Family feels I’m inferior to Ming Wan in every aspect, except for grandma, no one likes me, probably no one will come to see my show!

He walked to his desk, his long slender fingers unbuttoning the top two buttons of his shirt, and said in a deep and clear voice, “Are you going to Li University later?”

Lu Zhou nodded. “I’m heading there together with Young Master Mu.”

“Have Chengjin cover for me at the convention center, arrange the deputy general manager to have lunch with Director Li, and inspect the project this afternoon. I’ll go to Li University with you.”

Lu Zhou, “…”

To think that today’s schedule was very important to Fourth Master!

If things went well with Director Li and Director Zhou, it would be a project worth hundreds of billions.

And yet, he was actually going to watch a university fashion competition?

Lu Zhou suddenly remembered, the wife is from Li University.

Could it be that Fourth Master was giving up on important schedules just to see his wife?

It seemed that the wife’s influence on Fourth Master was growing ever stronger.

…

Ming Wan didn’t know where Ming Yao had gotten the VVIP tickets from, but she wouldn’t believe for a second that they had come from Fourth Master.

Fourth Master didn’t like her, nor did he like Ming Yao. He wouldn’t have given her the tickets!

Ming Wan arrived backstage and looked around but did not see Ming Yao. She then walked to the stairwell.

Finally, she saw Ming Yao.

While other contestants were nervously preparing their papers, she was leaning lazily against a corner wall, playing games on her phone.

She’s truly incapable of anything!

Ming Wan walked up to Ming Yao, her voice gentle, “Sister, you might as well drop out of the contest, or else you’ll lose miserably later on!”

Ming Yao was listening to music with her earphones in. Seeing Ming Wan’s moving lips, she pulled out an earphone, her slightly raised brows and eyes appearing cold, “Can you stop acting like you’re mentally challenged? Has the competition started yet, and you’ve already decided I’ll lose miserably?”

Ming Wan’s face turned from green to purple at the unpleasant words from Ming Yao.

She realized that Ming Yao had changed a lot.

In the past, whatever she said, Ming Yao believed, but now, she opposed her at every turn.

“Sister, Brother Yichen also came today,” Ming Wan said.

Ming Wan knew that to Ming Yao, Xiao Yichen was like the White Moonlight.

She’d fallen for Xiao Yixuan so quickly because he bore a resemblance to Xiao Yichen.

Ming Wan played with her long hair near her cheek, a shy smile mixed with a bit of pride on her face, “Brother Yichen came for me. Aunt Xiao said, as soon as the competition is over, we’ll discuss the engagement between me and Brother Yichen.”

Ming Wan, after saying this, thought she would catch a fleeting look of sorrow in Ming Yao’s eyes. However, Ming Yao just had a smile that was not quite a smile on her lips, without the slightest trace of sadness or sentimentality.

“If he has taken a liking to you, I guess he must be pretty dumb.”

Ming Wan, “…”

Ming Yao didn’t want Ming Wan to disrupt her gaming mood any further, so she turned to leave.

But Ming Wan chased after her and grabbed Ming Yao’s sleeve.

For those she disliked, Ming Yao wouldn’t even allow them to touch her sleeve, so the moment Ming Wan touched her, she forcefully pulled her hand back.

Yet behind her, Ming Wan fell to the ground like a leaf in the autumn breeze, even though Ming Yao hadn’t pushed her.

“Ah——”

Just then, a tall and statuesque figure strode over.

“Wanwan, are you all right?” Xiao Yichen steadied Ming Wan.

Ming Wan fell into Xiao Yichen’s arms and began to speak in a tremulous voice, “Brother Yichen, it’s not sister’s fault. It was my own carelessness; I didn’t stand firm.”

Xiao Yichen’s brow furrowed, his expression dark, “I clearly saw her push you.”

“Brother Yichen, please let me go. Seeing this will upset sister——”

Seeing the tears swirling in Ming Wan’s eyes and then looking at Ming Yao’s cold, indifferent disposition as if it were none of her concern, he said in a deep voice, “Ming Yao, I haven’t seen you for years and you’ve changed so much I barely recognize you. You pushed your sister, don’t you think you owe her an apology?”

Ming Yao snorted lightly.

The people of the Xiao Family, every single one of them, are they blind?

Ming Yao put away her phone, crossed her arms, and looked at Ming Wan with a sideways glance, “I pushed you?”

Ming Wan, “Sister, you don’t have to apologize. I know it wasn’t intentional…”

Ming Yao walked towards Ming Wan.

Even though she wasn’t wearing high heels, she made her plain white sneakers seem imposing.

She stood in front of Ming Wan, reached out her hand, and gave a hard push.

Ming Wan’s delicate frame was sent flying before hitting the wall.

As she fell to the ground, Ming Wan was completely dazed.

Ming Yao dusted off her hands, the corners of her lips lifted into a brilliant and defiant smile, “That’s what’s called me pushing you, understand?”

Having said that, she left, not caring how terrible Xiao Yichen and Ming Wan looked, striding off like a proud peacock.

Xiao Yichen helped Ming Wan, who was crying from the pain, up from the ground. The look on his face was grave, “I never imagined Ming Yao could become so arrogant and domineering. Wanwan, how do you feel? Do we need to go to the hospital to check?”

Ming Wan’s shoulder had hit the wall, and for a moment, her bones felt like they might shatter, but the pain eased a little after it subsided.

Tears streamed down her cheeks, “Brother Yixuan, you mustn’t tell anyone about this, after all, sister didn’t do it on purpose!”

Before, Xiao Yichen didn’t have much of an impression of Ming Wan, but through this encounter, he found she was truly kind and innocent.

“Silly girl.” He scooped her up, “I’ll take you to the rest area to treat your wound.”

…

After her wound was treated, Ming Wan was called away by assistant Jiang Meng.

Jiang Meng was in the same class as Ming Yao and was about to graduate this year. Knowing that Ming Wan was the darling of the Ming Family, she had always tried to please her at the university.

“Wanwan, I have something to show you.”

Jiang Meng pulled Ming Wan aside, took out the submissions from the competitors from her bag.

She flipped to Ming Yao’s submission and handed it over to Ming Wan, “I collected it for Director Meng. Look at Ming Yao’s, do you think someone who can’t even turn in her homework could design something like this?”

Seeing the work Ming Yao had created, Ming Wan’s pupils contracted.

Ming Yao, that worthless creature, actually designed a piece that could astonish people?
