Chapter 173: Chapter 172: Tyrant Gu’s Suspicions, Is She Really the Forr Ming Yao?
Facing Henry’s accusation, Ming Wan’s body shook unsteadily.
Her complexion was ashen.
Her mind buzzed as if soone had hamred it hard, and it took her a while to regain her composure.
“Senior Henry, could it be that Ming Yao has sothing on you?” Sun Lihua spoke with difficulty.
Henry glanced at Sun Lihua and then at the principal, “Principal, your school should be proud to have a student as outstanding as Mrs. Gu!”
Finally realizing that Ming Yao truly had talent after the international chief designer Henry’s praise and affirmation, the principal knew that Ming Yao had real strength!
...
Instead, it was Ming Wan who had actually reported her own sister!
She clearly wanted to ruin the reputation of their school!
“Ming Wan, you have disappointed everyone imnsely. Lacking in design skills compared to Ming Yao, you resorted to such despicable tactics!”
Gu Siting, who had been silent, tapped his long fingers on the table, “Principal, my wife has been wronged. How do you plan to handle this matter?”
The power of Fourth Master in Li City was sothing no one dared to affront.
The principal said tremulously, “Fourth Master, please rest assured, on Monday I will have Teacher Sun and Ming Wan apologize over the loudspeaker!”
Ming Wan, “!!!” No, she refused to apologize in front of the whole school!
Gu Siting humd lowly, “If the apology is not sincere, I don’t think Second Miss Ming needs to bother going to school anymore!”
Ming Wan’s pupils constricted, her face ashen.
Why had Fourth Master started to protect Ming Yao now?
And Henry, could it be that Ming Yao had bewitched them?
“Fourth Master, I have not wronged Ming Yao. Just look at her previous grades and works; they are nowhere near good enough to design such a stunning piece!” Sun Lihua presented the information to Gu Siting.
Gu Siting glanced at it coldly, “Teacher Sun, tongues are ant to speak human words!”
Sun Lihua did not doubt for a second the rumors that Fourth Master Gu was bloodthirsty, cold, and would kill without blinking. If she dared to slander Ming Yao again, he would probably have soone rip out her tongue!
When Ming Wan was chased out of the Gu Corporation by the security guards, she was dazed, and her legs were weak.
Ming Yao had really changed a lot. In the past, she could easily manipulate her at will, but now, Ming Yao had turned the tables ti and again!
On the other hand, she was like a clown, continuously humiliating herself!
Ming Wan clenched her fists tightly, every cell of her being seething with unwillingness and rage!
Ming Yao successfully signed a contract with SY dia.
Henry still had words he wanted to say to Ming Yao, and the two left the eting room separately.
Gu Siting watched Ming Yao’s retreating figure with deep and inscrutable eyes, then picked up the information Sun Lihua had brought and returned to his office.
After looking over Ming Yao’s past grades and works, Gu Siting called his assistant on the internal line and asked Lu Zhou to co in.
“Bring all the information you have on Ming Yao’s life so far.”
Towards the end of the workday, Lu Zhou handed over all the collected information to Gu Siting.
Gu Siting flipped through the pages.
Ming Yao was brought back to the Ming Family at the age of twelve and entered a private school in Li City.
Her grades were diocre, not nearly as good as Ming Wan’s.
In high school, she had a boyfriend.
Seeing the information of her boyfriend, Gu Siting’s brows furrowed tightly.
It was Xiao Yichen!
Did she have a special affinity for both Xiao brothers?
First love Xiao Yichen, and then Xiao Yixuan as her lover!
Gu Siting’s handso features darkened at a visible pace.
Standing to the side, Lu Zhou was extrely cautious, “Fourth Master, all those things about the wife are in the past, I think now she only has you in her heart.”
Gu Siting threw the docunts on his desk, stood up, and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window to light a cigarette.
Within the tendrils of pale blue smoke, his eyes held unfathomable depths.
“Lu Zhou.”
Lu Zhou imdiately stepped forward, “Fourth Master, please give your command.”
“Don’t you find it strange?”
Lu Zhou felt sowhat perplexed, “What do you an, Fourth Master? I don’t quite understand.”
Gu Siting did not reply. He took a drag of his cigarette, squinting his eyes as he slowly exhaled the smoke.
For the past twenty-one years, Ming Yao’s life had been very ordinary. Apart from her appearance, there was nothing particularly outstanding about her—she knew nothing about gourt food, dicine, design, and so on—
The most crucial point was, during the two years they were married, she had been secretly seeing Xiao Yixuan. He had people take photos of her and Xiao Yixuan together, and it wasn’t just her trying to provoke him as she claid.
They were holding hands, embracing, kissing on the cheek—although they never took the final step, he had evidence of hotel bookings in his hands.
During that ti, she truly liked Xiao Yixuan.
Why did she suddenly stop liking him?
And what about her insomnia—hadn’t she ever had it before?
The change in her seed to have started from the mont she and Xiao Yixuan drugged him and sent a woman to his bed, only to be caught in the act by him!
He hadn’t given it much thought before, nor had he delved into it deeply.
But now, upon careful reflection, there were too many loopholes.
The forr Ming Yao, compared to the current Ming Yao, seed like a completely different person!
Then there was Henry who ca today. With his status as the Chief Designer at Starburst, there was absolutely no need for him to speak up for Ming Yao.
Moreover, when he first entered the eting room, he was clearly there to expose Ming Yao’s plagiarism!
Gu Siting’s suspicions grew the more he thought about it, feeling that the woman had deceived him again!
His long, sword-like eyebrows furrowed deeply, his facial expression becoming increasingly impassive.
Gu Siting took out his phone and called Ming Yao.
It rang several tis before it was connected.
“Where are you?” he asked, his voice deep and cold.
With so many doubts, he wanted to find her for answers.
The feeling of being kept in the dark was quite unpleasant.
It was as if a lump of cotton was stuck in his chest, making his breathing difficult.
The person on the other side of the phone seed frightened by Gu Siting’s indifferent and gloomy tone. After a while, she stamred, “Fourth Master? I am Sister Yao’s assistant, Zhong Ling. Sister Yao… she’s currently dining with a client.”
“A client? Who?”
“Senior Henry.”
Gu Siting hung up the phone imdiately.
As far as he knew, Henry was extrely busy, and many top brands had invited him for als, only to be rejected.
The Little Swindler actually managed to get an invite accepted?
Good, very good. Dining with another man and even having her assistant take his call!
Lu Zhou, seeing Gu Siting’s expression dark enough to drip water, sweated cold sweat down his back.
“Fourth Master, the wife must be discussing work with Mr. Henry.”
Gu Siting’s lips curled coldly. “Lu Zhou, do you really believe she is my wife?”
Lu Zhou, “…” Why is Fourth Master suddenly saying such chilling words? If she’s not his wife, could she be a ghost?
Gu Siting didn’t say anything more, took his car keys, and left the office.
…
In the private room of the restaurant.
It was just Ming Yao and Henry. Henry was already quite drunk, clinging to Ming Yao’s arm, tears streaming down his face, “Master, I never expected to see you again in this lifeti. This trip to Li City was so worth it!”
“Master, when will you return to Starburst Headquarters? Everyone misses you a lot.”
Ming Yao pulled out a few tissues to wipe away Henry’s tears, “A nearly thirty-year-old man hugging and crying, aren’t you ashad?”
“Not ashad, not ashad at all. Master, where do you live? Can I sleep at your place tonight? I still have so many things to tell you!”
Ming Yao’s mouth twitched, “Stop, stop, stop, you should stay at the hotel. I am a married woman now; it’s inconvenient to take you ho!”
“Master, why did you marry so young? How many n’s hearts must you have broken?”
Ming Yao, “…”
The two talked until past nine o’clock. Ming Yao had Zhong Ling drive her back to the small courtyard in the suburbs.
The mont Ming Yao got out of the car, she saw the man standing at her ho’s courtyard gate.
Unsure how long he had been standing there, his eyes deep, his face expressionless, with several cigarette butts at his feet.
