Chapter 155: Chapter 155: He looked at her and took off his coat: “What about this?
On the trending searches, not only did photos of Zhou Zhiyan having a great time abroad with her ex surface online,
but also her academic fraud, medical malpractice, and framing of her colleagues were all exposed.
Each incident alone was a serious issue.
Zhou Zhiyan had always cultivated an image of a talented and graceful socialite, as well as being the most renowned surgeon.
Turns out, the innocence was fake, the elegance was fake.
Even her credentials and medical skills were fake!
...
This wave of revelations caused an uproar on the internet.
The fans who had supported Zhou Zhiyan all un-followed and criticized her.
Online, there was a torrent of scathing comments.
Zhou Family Company’s stock plummeted continuously.
When Zhou Zhiyan saw these news reports, she trembled all over, screamed out loud, and was on the verge of collapse.
She had carried out these acts with extreme secrecy.
Who else could have uncovered them, if not that man?
He was a devil!
A terrifying devil!
Gu Siting, I curse you to never find love in this life, to meet a terrible end!
Zhou Zhiyan hugged her head with both hands and collapsed to the ground, her face ashen!
Her life was completely ruined!
When Su Lan and Zhou Yanyan saw this outcome, both mother and daughter were taken by surprise.
But they did not sympathize with Zhou Zhiyan’s plight.
This was the consequence of her own evil deeds, beyond recovery.
Without true kindness and learning, she would only harm more people in the future!
Su Lan pulled Zhou Yanyan back into their room.
Su Lan took out a set of jewelry, the bottom of her dowry chest.
“Yanyan, this jewelry set was meant to be given to you on your wedding day, but today Sister Yao helped us. Whenever you have time, give it to her,” Su Lan said.
Zhou Yanyan was not displeased that her mother wanted to give the prized jewelry to Ming Yao. She nodded obediently, “Okay, Mom.”
“Sister Yao seems to have changed a lot compared to before, I think she is a decisive person. You can spend more time with her in the future,” Su Lan suggested.
Zhou Yanyan nodded.
…
Inside the Bentley.
Ming Yao was still unaware of the trending topic. She didn’t spare another glance to the handsome but indifferent man beside her and spoke in a calm tone, “Fourth Master Gu, please ask Assistant Lu to stop the car by the roadside.”
She had been driven away from the Imperial Garden and couldn’t just easily go back with him.
Did she look like someone who was easy to coax?
Gu Siting glanced at Ming Yao. In the past few days, she seemed to have become slightly thinner, her cheeks even more delicate and petite.
With her long lashes lowered, she did not look at him. Her thick and long lashes fluttered gently like the wings of a butterfly, indescribably beautiful.
Gu Siting lifted his long finger, lightly grazing her creamy white cheek, “Did you find a cure for your insomnia?”
Ming Yao, “…”
What does insomnia have to do with this? Isn’t this a matter of backbone?
And besides, if you’re going to talk, why touch her face?
Ming Yao rubbed her face harshly, trying to erase the mark of his touch.
Seeing her rub her delicate face to a rosy hue, Gu Siting’s brows furrowed slightly.
Thinking back to the night Little Snowball left and his cold tone toward her, as well as his dreadful attitude, he sighed softly. “That night was my fault. When Little Snowball died suddenly, I was completely stunned; my mind was in chaos, and I neglected to think things through!”
“It’s also my responsibility. I shouldn’t have blamed it all on you.”
A dog of a man apologizing to her?
Hmph!
Just because he admitted his wrong, did he expect her to forgive him?
It was because she had been too forthcoming with him that he felt he could kick her out whenever he wanted, without considering her feelings!
Anyway, now that Little Snowball was in her care, it was actually quite nice for her and Little Snowball to live in the small courtyard.
However…
She seemed to have not slept for two days.
Seeing that Ming Yao did not speak, her long eyelashes drooping as if deep in thought, the man with the expensive watch clasped her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
But the next second, she broke free from his grasp.
Who wanted to sit in his lap anyway?

Yet as he drew near, that crisp and pleasant scent of cold fir from his body entered her nostrils.
It was the magic cure for her insomnia!
She felt a little sleepy all of a sudden, what should she do?
No, no!
She must not compromise so easily!
Lu Zhou glanced at the wife who was rejecting Fourth Master Gu’s embrace. The expression on her face told him, she wouldn’t forgive Fourth Master easily.
Lu Zhou couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat for Fourth Master Gu in his heart.
Would Fourth Master Gu, cold as ice and hell-bent on working 24/7, really know how to coax an angry wife?
Sure enough, Lu Zhou was not wrong. After being rejected by his wife, Fourth Master Gu’s handsome face darkened slightly.
The atmosphere in the car became extremely tense.
Lu Zhou was terribly anxious.
Fourth Master, hey, a woman needs to be coaxed!
Gu Siting stared at Ming Yao for a few seconds before reaching over to take off the coat draped over his shoulders, “This, do you want it?”
Ming Yao, “…” Yes, yes, yes!
But after an internal struggle, she refused to take his coat.
“I don’t want it. Even if I die of insomnia, it’s none of your business!”
Gu Siting, “…”
The air grew tense for nearly a minute or two when suddenly, a cacophony of frantic honking sounded from outside.
Jing Hang was chasing after them in his sports car.
The bright yellow supercar was as eye-catching and flashy as they come!
Gu Siting also saw the supercar pursuing them from outside.
His brows knitted, and his sharp, angular profile visibly darkened at the sight.
“Ming Yao, there are some lines you better not cross with me!”
Running off to the airport with that man, almost eloping, and now, you dare to take away my person right in front of me?
Ming Yao, “…”
The bastard, how dare he get angry at her?
No problem, go ahead and be angry. I’ll let you wallow in the grief of missing Little Snowball, making you miserable until death!
“Assistant Lu, stop the car!”
The called-out Lu Zhou, “…”
Please don’t tell me the fight’s going to spill over to him again?
“Madam, from Fourth Master’s perspective, seeing another man chase after you, of course, he would get angry—”
Ming Yao let out a cold snort, “That night he kicked me out of Imperial Garden, I wandered the streets alone all night, why didn’t he care to check on me then? I was extremely upset about Little Snowball’s disappearance too, okay? You didn’t see the way he looked at me then, as if he wanted to kill me to vent his anger!”
“Now that he’s found out who the real murderer of Little Snowball is, he wants me back by his side. Do you think I can’t see through his intentions? He’s just lusting after my body—”
She hadn’t finished speaking when the man covered her mouth.
This woman, how could she say anything she liked?
Lu Zhou coughed twice, “Fourth Master, I didn’t hear anything, okay?”
Ming Yao pulled away the man’s hand and glared coldly at him, “Fourth Master Gu, from the moment you drove me out of Imperial Garden, my affairs are no longer any of your concern!”
“Assistant Lu, don’t make me say it a third time, stop the car!”
Subdued by the domineering wife, Lu Zhou turned on the signal light and pulled the car over to the side of the road.
Ming Yao pushed open the car door, got out, then with a bang, slammed the car door shut.
Without giving the Bentley another look, she turned and got into the flashy bright yellow supercar.
Lu Zhou was dumbfounded by the wife’s series of actions.
Daring to get into another man’s car right in front of Fourth Master, did she no longer want to live?
