Chapter 159: Chapter 159: Shocking! How the rich Gu coddles his wife

Jing Hang looked at Ming Yao walking away and paused before he caught up.

“Sister, I’m straight, okay?”

Ming Yao turned her head and glanced at Jing Hang, “Don’t think I don’t know about that year you almost got bent.”

Jing Hang, “…” Could we not bring up my dark history, please?

Ming Yao walked to the courtyard and took a glance at the man leaning against the camphor tree.

...

The man was wearing a black turtleneck sweater with a fitted overcoat on top, a look that was simple, luxurious, and stylish.

One hand was in his pocket, while the other, wearing a wristwatch, hung naturally at his side; he was tilting his head and talking to Lu Zhou.

His profile had superior lines, and under the multicolored fairy lights, he looked as if he were carefully carved by an artisan, with sharp and perfectly handsome features.

From a distance, Ming Yao naturally couldn’t hear what they were saying.

Under the camphor tree.

Gu Siting slightly furrowed his brows, his voice low and cold, “Assistant Lu, how do you sweet-talk women?”

Lu Zhou was at a loss for words for a moment.

He almost said that if he knew how to sweet-talk women, his ex-girlfriend wouldn’t have run off with someone else!

But he remembered that his ex-girlfriend was quite fond of money.

Every time he sent her a red packet, she would send back some kissy and huggy emojis, ecstatic beyond belief.

“Fourth Master, sending women red packets is always the right move, or you could give them a card; women love to shop!”

Gu Siting’s dark eyes narrowed thoughtfully.

Ever since his relationship with Ming Yao improved, he realized he hadn’t actually given her money to spend.

Gu Siting took out his phone from his pocket and transferred a sum of money to Ming Yao’s bank account.

Lu Zhou caught a glimpse of the amount Fourth Master transferred to his wife and his eyelid twitched involuntarily.

Why is there such a huge disparity between people?

The most he ever transferred to his ex-girlfriend was fifty thousand.

But how much did Fourth Master transfer to his wife?

Five million?

Not only Lu Zhou was taken aback, but Ming Yao, who heard the notification and pulled out her phone to check, was also shocked.

Holy moly!

Does Tyrant Gu have a brain disorder?

Actually transferring her five million?

Ming Yao’s delicate eyebrows were almost furrowed into small mountain ridges.

Gu Siting had been discreetly observing Ming Yao’s expression and saw that far from being happy, she was actually furrowing her brows, so he thought he hadn’t transferred enough.

The notification sounds kept coming.

[Your account ending in 8388 has transferred 10,000,000 to you.]

[Your account ending in 8388 has transferred 50,000,000 to you.]

[Your account ending in 8388 has transferred 100,000,000 to you.]

Ming Yao’s mouth twitched.

Just these few transactions alone had caused her to be greatly alarmed.

The man then sent another message.

[If that’s not enough, I’ll bring you the Black Card tomorrow.]

Ming Yao, “…”

The world of the wealthy, she couldn’t even imagine!

Pfft, pfft, pfft!

Actually, she wasn’t doing badly herself, it’s just that her money was all with the Tang Sect.

Was she the type to bend over backward for money?

However, seeing all this crisp cash, how could her heart not race uncontrollably?

After all, since being reborn into this body, she hadn’t earned much money yet.

She did need the money!

Jing Hang saw Ming Yao staring at her phone with dilated pupils and didn’t know what she had seen; he curiously leaned in to take a look.

Upon seeing it, he let out an exclamation of “Holy sh*t”.

“Sister, who’s this ‘scumbag man’ labeled in the remarks?”

Ming Yao quickly glared at Jing Hang, “Keep your voice down!” The scumbag man was not far away; it wouldn’t be good if he heard.

Jing Hang covered his mouth, his peach blossom eyes looking toward the man under the camphor tree who was now looking over this way, as if he had come to a realization.

“I can’t believe it, could he be your husband in name? What a tycoon, Sister, can you formally introduce us?”

Ming Yao snorted lightly, “Dream on.”

“Senior sister, you’ve become a little rich lady, share half with me!”

Gu Siting couldn’t hear what Ming Yao and Jing Hang were saying, but he could make out the last part of Jing Hang’s sentence by reading his lips.

You’ve become a little rich lady, share half with me!

Gu Siting lowered his head and sent Ming Yao another message.

[If you dare to keep a pretty boy, you’ll bear the consequences yourself!]

Jing Hang touched his nose.

Was he referring to him as the pretty boy?

Ming Yao glanced at Gu Siting, who was looking at her with his dark, glossy eyes.

Ming Yao haughtily curled her red lips and looked away.

“I’m done dealing with this place, I’m going upstairs to cuddle the cat and rest.”

“Senior sister, will you be able to sleep?”

“If that dog of a man is considerate, he’ll have someone send a jacket up.”

Sure enough, it wasn’t long after Ming Yao went upstairs that Assistant Lu brought up Tyrant Gu’s jacket.

Lu Zhou coughed and said with a faint blush on his handsome face, “Madam, Fourth Master also told me to pass on a message to you.”

Ming Yao lazily responded, “Speak.”

“If Madam needs, Fourth Master is willing to stay tonight and accompany Madam.”

Ming Yao couldn’t help but laugh at the shamelessness of the dog of a man.

“Tell him…” Ming Yao deliberately drew out her words, making Lu Zhou think she was asking for Fourth Master to come up. A smile appeared on his face, “I’ll have Fourth Master come up right now.”

“No, what I mean is, tell him to scram!”

Taking the jacket from Lu Zhou’s hand, she slammed the door shut with a bang.

Snuggling with the man’s jacket and Little Snowball on the bed, Ming Yao’s cold and beautiful face curved into a pleased smile.

So it turned out that telling someone to scram really felt incredibly satisfying!

No wonder Tyrant Gu would tell people to scram whenever he was unhappy!

Lu Zhou reached the ground floor.

Approaching the man smoking under the camphor tree, Lu Zhou cautiously said, “Fourth Master, I’ve delivered your jacket and message.”

Seeing Lu Zhou’s expression, Gu Siting had already guessed what the little swindler upstairs had said.

Gu Siting slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, “What did she say?”

“Madam means for you to go back and rest, she doesn’t need your company.”

Lu Zhou tried to put it as gently as possible.

Gu Siting flicked the ash from his cigarette, “Her exact words.”

“Do I really have to say it?”

“Say it.”

“Madam said… for you to scram!”

The handsome features of the man were shrouded in the blue-white smoke, making it hard to discern any change in emotion for a moment.

But Lu Zhou inexplicably felt the air around him chill a bit.

Gu Siting took out his phone and checked it.

She hadn’t replied to any of his messages.

Could it be, she wasn’t satisfied with the transfer?

“Bring my card wallet here tomorrow morning.”

Lu Zhou was astonished, “The Gold Card, Diamond Card, the ones for high-end malls, restaurants, entertainment venues, five-star hotels and the like?”

Gu Siting nodded his head.

Lu Zhou, “Okay.”

Ming Yao slept comfortably through the night.

When she woke up the next day, she found Jing laying at her doorstep.

“If you’re not sleeping, why are you peeping at my doorway?”

Jing had a bootlicker look on his face, “Senior sister, please take me under your wing.”

Ming Yao kicked towards Jing Hang, “Scram.”

Jing Hang handed Ming Yao a deep brown card wallet that he’d received from Lu Zhou that morning.

“Your husband is trying to appease you — can you guess the cost? Not to mention the unlimited Black Card, even this Gold Card, in Li City’s top-tier establishments, everything is free, right? No, no, no, free is just the least of it; with this card, the whole mall belongs to you!”
