Chapter 236 -235: He Suddenly Appeared in the Dressing Room
Watching the noble and bright, elegant and charming woman who almost captured the attention of the entire room as she walked in, Gu Siting swirled the liquid in his glass.
Then, he tilted back his head and drained the glass in one gulp.
The prominent Adam’s apple rolled heavily.
This woman had complained that morning about her back being nearly broken, so why was she still wearing high heels?
Wasn’t she supposed to meet a friend she hadn’t seen in a long time? Why would she come here?
Could it be that she came looking for him after learning he was here?
Just as Gu Siting was about to go downstairs to find her, he caught a glimpse of some Young Master approaching her and striking up a conversation.
Gu Siting’s long strides halted after a few steps.
His dark eyes deeply watched the woman.
Ming Yao seemed to have said something to the Young Master, who walked away somewhat disappointed.
But she hadn’t taken many steps before another Young Master approached her.
Yanxi rested his hands on the railing, his face bearing the expression of someone enjoying the show, “Fourth Brother, your wife is really popular, huh? Look at those Young Masters, their eyes are practically glued to her!”
Ming Yao, tired of being hit on, appeared slightly impatient.
Just then, her phone rang.
She glanced at the caller ID, it was from Tyrant Gu.
She meant to press the answer button, but accidentally hit the hang-up button.
She was in a hurry to meet Yuci and didn’t feel like calling him back.
After asking and learning that Yuci was on the third floor getting her makeup done, she put her phone in her bag and headed upstairs.
Gu Siting watched his call being hung up, his complexion growing darker.
Yanxi mocked without mercy, “Fourth Brother, even you get your calls hung up sometimes, huh!”
Gu Siting’s dark eyes coldly swept over Yanxi, “Didn’t you see her going upstairs to find me?”
Yanxi raised an eyebrow, barely holding back his laughter, “True, true. Fourth Brother, you have charm indeed. Wherever you go, the wife follows!”
A few minutes passed, and neither Yanxi nor Gu Siting saw Ming Yao come their way.
“Fourth Brother, did she get lost?” After all, the villa was large, and finding their location was not easy.
Gu Siting waved over a servant.
“The lady in the light blue gown who went upstairs earlier, where did she go?”
Unaware of the relationship between Ming Yao and Gu Siting, the servant honestly replied, “She went to find Miss Wen on the third floor.”

“Hahaha…”
Yanxi, seeing the man with a face dark as the bottom of a pot, couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
The next second, his shin was kicked by the man.
“Ow, Fourth Brother, when did you develop a penchant for narcissism?”
Gu Siting, clutching his glass a bit tighter, did not bother with Yanxi and cast a deep glance towards the third floor.
She knew Wen Yuci?
Wen Yuci was the quintessential well-bred lady, having grown up with strict propriety, the most rebellious thing she’d probably ever done was to openly express her interest in Yunshen.
…
Third-floor makeup room.
Ming Yao pushed open the door, peering inside.
In front of the makeup table, a woman dressed in an embroidered gown sat there; the gown was a classic, simple white with intricate embroidery on the upper half, some cut-outs at the back revealed a bit of svelte back, yet was covered by her tea-colored long hair.
Her waistline was incredibly slender, so much so that one could probably wrap their hands around it easily.
A slim waist makes anything look good on it.
The moment the woman sat there, she resembled a noble lady from the television, elegant and dignified.
Ming Yao curved her red lips, walking towards the rest area.
The woman in front of the makeup table seemed lost in thought, oblivious to the newcomer.
Until a pair of slender, white hands covered her eyes.
Ming Yao deliberately lowered her voice, “Guess who I am?”
The woman whose eyes were blinded by her, first startled, then stiffened with incredulity.
“Yaoyao?”
Ming Yao released her hands from over Wen Yuci’s eyes and leaned slightly down, looking at her through the mirror.
Their gazes met in the mirror.
In Wen Yuci’s almond-like clear eyes, there was full of surprise, “Yaoyao, is it really you?”
Wen Yuci, with her usually calm and graceful temperament, seldom showed her emotions, but at this moment, seeing Ming Yao, she almost shed tears.
“Hey, Yuci, don’t cry, you just finished your makeup, don’t ruin it.”
Wen Yuci stood up emotionally, grasping Ming Yao’s hand, “Yaoyao, how did you come here?”
“Speaking of which, it’s the irony of fate.” Ming Yao told her about her rebirth.
Wen Yuci was full of shock but didn’t ask any further.
She assured Ming Yao that she would never reveal this matter to anyone else.
Ming Yao’s lips curved into a smile, “It’s because I knew you wouldn’t tell anyone that I told you.”
Wen Yuci held Ming Yao’s hand, her beautiful clear eyes carrying a hint of suspicion, “So, Fourth Master Gu is your husband now?”
Ming Yao nodded.
Wen Yuci had many things to say to Ming Yao, but Mother Wen came over to remind her that the auspicious hour was approaching.
“Yaoyao, you go ahead, I’ll put on my jewelry and be right over.”
Ming Yao handed her a delicate box, “This is a gift for you.”
Wen Yuci opened it and saw inside was the latest model of a multifunctional camera.
“You like photography, and I thought you would like this.”
Wen Yuci nodded, “Thank you, Yaoyao.”
A gift need not be very expensive, it only needs to resonate with the heart.
Today she was engaged and had received many lavish gifts, but not one of them was to her liking.
Yaoyao had just arrived and had given the gift that suited her best!
After Ming Yao left the makeup room, Wen Yuci took out the jewelry box.
While wearing the earrings, the right earring accidentally fell to the floor.
Wen Yuci bent down to pick it up, when suddenly a pair of gleaming black leather shoes appeared beside the earring.
Looking up, there were a man’s impeccably pressed black cropped pants.
And, delicately-socked ankles.
With the arrival of the man, it seemed as if the temperature in the surrounding air dropped several degrees.
Wen Yuci felt an unprecedented familiar scent and abruptly looked up at the man in front of her.
The man was dressed in a sharply tailored black suit, a white shirt beneath, no tie worn, the buttons fastened up to the very top, hugging the prominent sensual Adams apple.
On that handsome, scholarly face was a pair of rimless glasses, and below those, a pair of long, cold and unfeeling phoenix eyes that shielded the sharp edge within.
At first glance, he appeared handsome and erudite, as refined as a scholar.
His thin, scarlet lips held a faint curve, but on closer inspection, that arc was devoid of any warmth.
Seeing Fu Yunshen appear here, Wen Yuci’s heart pounded fiercely.
But after the initial shock, she felt chilled to the bone by the cold and harshness in his phoenix eyes.
His deep eyes did not hide his disdain and hatred for her.
Wen Yuci recalled the events of the past and her eyes reddened involuntarily.
She closed her eyes briefly, quickly composed herself, and reached out for the earring.
But in the next second, Fu Yunshen’s gleaming leather shoes stepped on the earring.
Right in front of her, he mercilessly crushed the jade earring!
