Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon's Reluctant Love-Chapter 176 - 175: Tyrant Gu’s Ears Turned Red?

Chapter 176: Chapter 175: Tyrant Gu’s Ears Turned Red?

She didn’t know how long it had been, but just as she was almost out of breath, a sudden “holy shit” came from the doorway.

Jing Hang had returned.

Although Jing Hang had a long-term lease on a presidential suite at a five-star hotel in Li City, he would still come to the small courtyard in the suburbs whenever he had time.

He hadn’t expected that he would arrive at such an inconvenient time today.

To actually walk in on his senior sister kissing Fourth Master Gu.

The slender woman was enveloped in the arms of a tall man, both of them possessing looks that could grace the screens of a romance drama, their kissing scene looking as beautiful as any idol drama.

...

It wasn’t jarring to the eyes at all; on the contrary, it made one want to fall in love.

When Ming Yao heard Jing Hang’s exclamation, she pushed Gu Siting away in a jiffy.

Both their breaths were still a bit ragged.

Her fair earlobes, hidden behind her long hair, were flushed with red.

His, it seemed, were no exception, his earlobes noticeably red.

Ming Yao, however, didn’t have time to feel shy as she made a discovery as if finding a new continent.

Tyrant Gu’s ears were actually red?

Ming Yao raised her hand, intending to touch his flushed ear, but before she could make contact, he firmly grasped her fingertips.

Ming Yao inhaled sharply, “Sss… that hurts, could you be gentler?”

He always exerted so much force, and her lips and tongue were still numb, for goodness’ sake.

Gu Siting slightly loosened his grip on Ming Yao’s hand but held onto her fingertips still. He turned around, his dark eyes sweeping towards Jing Hang like a sharp sword, “Who exactly is he?”

Ming Yao, “…”

Jing Hang, “…”

Gu Siting looked at Ming Yao, “Don’t lie to me again!”

Ming Yao’s scalp tingled, “He’s a junior brother who grew up with me since childhood. Although we have no blood relation, we’re as close as biological siblings. You can consider him like a younger uncle too.”

So, the man he perceived as a love rival was actually akin to a younger uncle?

Thinking back to how he nearly beat up Jing Hang last time, a trace of awkwardness flashed across Gu Siting’s face.

Jing Hang looked at Ming Yao, then at Gu Siting.

What’s happening here?

Had his senior sister come clean to him?

It hadn’t been long since she had a heart surgery, and she already told her nominal husband?

Sister was setting a pace to gradually fall in love through cohabitation!

Just then when he barged in and saw them kissing, to say that his senior sister wasn’t enjoying and indulging in it would be an outright lie!

Jing Hang gave Ming Yao a meaningful look, “…” Sister, you’re in danger!

But now that Gu Siting was aware of his identity as the younger uncle, Jing Hang stopped pretending, suddenly acting all high and mighty, “Fourth Master Gu, my senior sister also has several senior brothers, each not so easy to mess with. I, on the other hand, am the easiest to talk to. But as for how you treated me before…”

“Heard you like motorcycles?”

Jing Hang, “…” What does that mean? Planning to bribe him with a motorcycle?

“A Street Glide heavy-duty motorcycle, for you.” His words were brief, straight to the point.

Jing Hang indicated he was very much pleased.

Inwardly laughing like mad, but outwardly trying to appear unimpressed, “It’s alright!”

Ming Yao couldn’t hold back anymore, “Enough, take it and be thankful.” Wasn’t this little brat forgetting that she still needed a favor from his heart blood?

Jing Hang scratched his head and chuckled, “Brother-in-law, when will the motorcycle be delivered?”

Hearing Jing Hang suddenly address her as ‘brother-in-law’, the corner of Ming Yao’s mouth twitched.

She withdrew her fingertips from Gu Siting’s grasp and kicked at Jing Hang, “Don’t call him that!”

“Brother-in-law, look at my senior sister. She doesn’t let me call you brother-in-law, which means you’re not charming enough, you haven’t conquered her heart yet!”

Ming Yao chased after Jing Hang until she had chased him right out of the yard.

With a bang, she closed the yard door.

“Senior Sister, you favor love over friendship, you!”

“You little brat, keep shouting nonsense and see if I don’t beat you so hard you’ll be searching the ground for your teeth!”

In the night, Ming Yao’s face burned like fire.

Lately, she seemed to blush more easily than ever—it must be the problem with this body. Before, her skin had been as thick as the city walls; she was always the one making others blush. How could she be blushing?

Ming Yao patted her own face, took a deep breath, then returned to the room.

The man stretched out his long arm and once again pinned her against the wall.

Ming Yao raised both hands to cover her lips, “No more kissing allowed!”

Seeing her move, a faint smile emerged in the man’s dark and profound eyes, “Fine, no more kissing.”

He tried to take her hand, but Ming Yao wouldn’t let him; instead, she pushed against his shoulders, trying to push him away, “Don’t stand so close to me for now, let’s sit down and talk properly.”

Obviously, the man was not willing to be pushed away; the more she pushed, the closer he got to her.

Ming Yao felt like she was about to become the filling between the wall and his chest.

Angry, she lifted her foot and aimed a kick at his lower leg.

She did not feel the slightest pity for him and really put some force into the kick.

The lower leg bone is one of the weakest bones in the human body; even a light kick would hurt, let alone a forceful one.

But the man didn’t even frown.

“Kick me again, and I’ll kiss you,” his low and dangerous voice sounded above her head.

Ming Yao, “…”

She refused to concede in front of him and wouldn’t be led by the nose by him.

She went on tiptoes and bit hard on the corner of the man’s lips.

He winced slightly in pain.

“Are you a dog or something?”

“You’re the dog, a dog of a man!”

Hearing her scold him, the man didn’t get angry. He licked the corner of his lip where she bit him; his eyes darkened, impenetrable by any light, and his voice grew huskier, “Once you’re here, you’re not allowed to leave again, understand?”

Ming Yao was taken aback, not understanding what he meant.

“Stay here properly, or no matter if you flee to the ends of the earth, I will find you!”

Ming Yao, “…” What in the world was he talking about?

Wait, did he mean that he accepted the fact that Ming Yao had changed her “heart blood”?

Looking at the woman’s wide-eyed and puzzled face, Gu Siting carried her to the sofa and sat her down, his slender hand gently stroking her thenar, “Tell me about your past, where you lived, and who else was there besides Jing Hang?”

He could find out about Ming Yao’s past, but since her “heart blood” was now hers, he didn’t know anything about her past.

This feeling of knowing nothing made him anxious and confused.

Ming Yao looked at the long fingers stroking her thenar, feeling equally confused.

Big brother, we’re just a marriage of convenience; there’s really no need to delve into my past!

Besides, I’m Ming Yao now. Whatever happened in the past died with that body!

Seeing Ming Yao’s silence, Gu Siting’s brows furrowed slightly, “Don’t want to talk about it?”

Ming Yao mumbled, “Now that I’ve been reborn here, I will be Ming Yao from now on. The people and things from the past don’t concern me anymore; why do you need to know?”

Gu Siting stared at her little face for a while, his dark eyes deep and unfathomable, and didn’t ask anything more.

Ming Yao pulled her hand out of his grasp and patted his shoulder, “Don’t worry, my actual age is just like now, and in terms of looks, I’m not worse than the owner of this body. You’re not with an old lady!”

Gu Siting’s lips twitched.

Her imagination was a bit too rich; with her personality, an old lady would be quite the stretch!
