Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon's Reluctant Love-Chapter 113 - : The Little Maid’s Disguise is Revealed (1)

Chapter 113: Chapter 113: The Little Maid’s Disguise is Revealed (1)

Old Madam Gu was a bit surprised; Gu Siting had a delicate stomach and was always picky about food. Even dishes made by five-star chefs wouldn’t necessarily satisfy him. Could the culinary skills of a little maid actually win his approval?

Old Madam Gu became curious about the little maid’s cooking skills of Imperial Garden.

“Alright, let’s go back to Imperial Garden for our meal; otherwise, I really can’t eat here.” Old Madam Gu said as she got up, pulling Ming Yao with her.

Gu Siting lifted his eyelids and glanced at Ming Yao. Under his dark and deep gaze, her scalp tingled.

What did he mean?

Did he see right through her?

...

Gu Siting tugged the corner of his lip faintly as if he didn’t really care, looked away from Ming Yao and said to Old Madam Gu, “Yanxi has been wanting to open a gourmet restaurant recently. There’s a space next to this Western restaurant; I will buy it and let Yanxi set up shop there!”

Old Lady Zhou and others, “…”

What did Gu Siting mean?

They, the Zhou Family, had opened a Western restaurant here, and he intended to let Yanxi open a gourmet restaurant next door?

Wasn’t that blatantly stealing their business?

Gu Siting had SY Media at his disposal, a gathering of big-name stars. If they all came to support Yanxi’s restaurant, what business would their restaurant have left?

Zhou Zhiyan’s complexion turned a shade paler, her fair hands clasped tightly under the table.

Was it because she had made things difficult for Ming Yao earlier?

Was he indirectly taking revenge on her behalf?

No, it definitely wasn’t like that!

After Gu Siting and his party left, Old Lady Zhou’s face looked extremely grim, “Zhiyan, didn’t you say Madam Gu liked you very much and wanted you to become her daughter-in-law? How is the progress now?”

“Grandma, Aunt Yuzhi is adamant that I’m the only choice for a daughter-in-law, but you saw it too; Ming Yao has the look of a vixen. She must have seduced Brother Siting, confusing him temporarily!”

“But rest assured, with Aunt Yuzhi there, she won’t allow Ming Yao to stay by Brother Siting’s side forever!”

Old Lady Zhou nodded, “That’s good. You tell Yuzhi later to have Gu Siting dump Ming Yao as soon as possible; otherwise, I won’t agree to you marrying Gu Siting!”

Old Lady Zhou said this and snorted coldly, “I don’t know what Old Madam Gu has to be proud of. Her granddaughter-in-law merely orders in French and thinks she’s better than a translator?”

Old Lady Zhou turned to Jiang Ke beside her, “My granddaughter-in-law is a true translator, of a much higher caliber than her granddaughter-in-law by who knows how many grades!”

…

In the Bentley.

Gu Siting was driving, with Old Madam Gu and Ming Yao sitting in the back.

Gu Siting received a phone call, it was from Mu Chengjin.

He connected to the car’s Bluetooth, and spoke in a deep voice, “Chengjin, what’s up?”

“Fourth Brother, Fujin has been out all day and hasn’t come back, her phone is off, and I’m worried something has happened.”

Ming Yao’s scalp tingled upon hearing Mu Chengjin’s words.

At that moment, the man driving glanced over at her through the rearview mirror.

His gaze was sharp and piercing, as if it could see through everything.

Ming Yao swallowed unconsciously.

Not to show her nervousness, she met the man’s inscrutable dark eyes for a few seconds, and her expression remained as calm as can be.

Nobody knew how panicked she actually was.

Gu Siting was the first to remove his gaze from Ming Yao’s face, his voice deep and magnetic, “If she doesn’t come back later, I’ll have Lu Zhou go to the traffic management bureau to check her whereabouts for the day.”

Madness!

Did the damn man have to be so ruthless?

Was there really a need to make a big fuss at the traffic management bureau about tracking her down?

“Yaoyao, what’s wrong with you, your hand is so cold?” Old Madam Gu held Ming Yao’s hand, asking with concern.

“It might be because I didn’t wear enough clothes.”

Old Madam Gu cast a glare at Gu Siting, “It’s getting colder, turn on some heating. Look at what you’ve done, freezing your wife like this.”

Gu Siting’s tongue touched his cheek, and he chuckled.

While Gu Siting wasn’t paying attention, Ming Yao quietly sent a secret signal to Jing Hang through WeChat.

Luckily, she had been prepared, fearing that one day Gu Siting would want her to be present with Gu Fuzhen. She had asked Jing Hang to arrange a girl with a similar figure and appearance to Gu Fuzhen.

With just a bit of makeup, that girl could look just like Gu Fuzhen.

The Bentley pulled up at Imperial Garden.

At the same time, a taxi also arrived.

‘Gu Fuzhen’ got out of the car.

Seeing Gu Siting and Ming Yao’s group, she came over to greet them, appearing timid and fragile.

Gu Siting’s dark narrow eyes narrowed, and he looked somberly at the Little Maid.

At his glance, the Little Maid’s head lowered even further.

Ming Yao, standing by Old Madam Gu’s side, secretly broke out in a cold sweat for the Little Maid.

Who could stand Tyrant Gu’s intense gaze that seemed to bore two holes right through you?

After a few seconds, Gu Siting said in a deep voice, “We haven’t had dinner yet, go and prepare a few dishes.”

“Yes, Fourth Master.”

After the Little Maid entered the villa, Ming Yao saw that Gu Siting looked the same as usual and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She had fooled him many times before, and this time would be no different!

“Fourth Master, I’ll go to the kitchen to help…” Ming Yao said with a smile, looking every bit the virtuous wife.

Old Madam Gu nodded with satisfaction, “Yaoyao, you can actually cook?”

“Grandma, I know a little.”

“Who says my granddaughter-in-law is good for nothing? Anyone who says that again will have to deal with me.”

Ming Yao was preparing to head to the kitchen when the man’s deep voice sounded behind her, “Stay in the living room and keep Grandma company. Gu Fuzhen is very capable; she can manage on her own.”

Old Madam Gu frowned slightly upon hearing Gu Siting praise the Little Maid yet again.

This stubborn boy, why does he always praise another woman in front of his wife?

Though that Little Maid looked rather ordinary, which woman wouldn’t feel jealous with her so much on his mind?

“Yaoyao, don’t overthink things. In Grandma’s heart, you’re the best.”

Ming Yao felt a warm current flowing through her heart as she looked at Old Madam Gu, who always had her best interests in mind.

“It’s okay, Grandma. I’m already used to the Fourth Master not liking me.”

Gu Siting threw a warning glance at Ming Yao, signaling her not to speak out of turn.

Ming Yao gave him an alluring smile and helped Old Madam Gu to sit down on the sofa.

After chatting with Old Madam Gu for a while, Ming Yao suddenly realized something strange.

She hadn’t seen Little Snowball.

About an hour later, the Little Maid had finished cooking the meal, and Ming Yao helped Old Madam Gu towards the dining room. At that moment, Gu Siting came down from upstairs.

He was holding Little Snowball in his arms.

Little Snowball had been longing to come down and find Mommy, but the male owner kept holding onto it, preventing its escape.

Seeing Ming Yao, Little Snowball meowed and swiftly jumped from the male owner’s arms into the female owner’s.

Ming Yao wanted to signal to Little Snowball to go to the Little Maid later, but before she could make eye contact with the cat, a long hand reached over and grabbed Little Snowball by the ear, “Let Gu Fuzhen take you to eat something.”

Gu Siting tossed Little Snowball into the Little Maid’s arms.

Without receiving the female owner’s gaze, Little Snowball did not like the smell of strangers. As soon as it was thrown into the Little Maid’s arms, it bared its teeth and fiercely scratched at her arm.

The incident happened in the blink of an eye!!!

That’s two thousand words for this chapter, haha~
