Chapter 286: Chapter 285: A Good Show Is About to Begin

Gu Yanyu propped his hands on the coffee table, a casual smile playing across his handsome face. He seemed approachable, but in truth, his eyes hid an inscrutable light.

He was someone adept at concealing his inner feelings and harbored great ambition.

Ming Yao’s first instinct was that Gu Siting’s younger brother was not simple and was also very smart.

His words piqued her curiosity.

But to deal with such a person, she would have to be equally discreet.

If he was willing to talk, he would do so in due time.

Ming Yao gave a light snort, “Even though it’s nighttime, it’s still best not to daydream!”

Ming Yao straightened her back and left the reception room.

Gu Yanyu watched Ming Yao’s retreating figure, the smile on his lips deepening.

Fourth Brother’s wife is quite interesting!

Would it be even more amusing if the Crown Prince, Gong Yu, knew about this woman’s existence?

…

Upstairs, in the study.

Gu Mingde and Gu Siting discussed company affairs.

Gu Mingde couldn’t find any fault with Gu Siting.

Truth be told, Gu Siting was an outstanding and talented businessman.

No, with his intelligence, even if he wasn’t in business, whatever he did, he would excel.

Gu Mingde had intended to find a sore point in Gu Siting’s work, but truly could find none, and it wouldn’t be right to exert a father’s authority without reason, so he exited the study with a grave face.

Upon leaving, he felt something was off with his body.

He felt slightly feverish, his blood seemed to flow backward, and his breathing became a bit rapid.

Gu Mingde shook his head, hoping to take a bath to feel better. Suddenly, a slender figure emerged from a room.

The shadow collided with him.

He steadied the figure right in time, and before he could clearly see who it was, a light and elegant fragrance wafted to his nostrils.

It was Shi Yuan who bumped into him.

She had just taken a bath and was wearing a black lace nightgown.

Cool and sexy.

She had been on her way to the study to find Gu Siting, but after stepping out of the room, she felt a bit dizzy, and her steps were unsteady.

She didn’t know what was wrong with her.

Suddenly, her body crashed into a firm and solid chest.

Shi Yuan was a little dazed, she lifted her head to look at the man in front of her.

Defined profile, deep-set features, a resolute jaw.

Dressed in a handcrafted black suit, he was tall and imposing, with a distinctly commanding presence.

Shi Yuan’s pupils were dilated as she mistook the man before her for Gu Siting.

She knew that Gu Siting had drunk the soup with the special ingredient, and he would need her now too.

Her small hand reached out to his chest.

Through the fabric of the suit, she could feel the firm and scorching skin underneath.

Gu Mingde retained some clarity in his mind and, seeing the woman exhaling softly like an orchid in front of him, wanted to push her away, but in the next second, her arm, supple as a water snake, wound around his neck.

“Take me to your room, okay?”

“I won’t let your wife know, and I don’t want any status. I’ve admired you for a long time, please don’t reject me, okay?”

“I’ll leave obediently afterward, just give me one chance, okay?”

Gu Mingde looked at the woman’s flushed and delicate face before him, his eyes darkening, his Adam’s apple rolling constantly.

His large hand clenched into a fist, the veins on the back of his hand standing out, a sign of his strained self-control.

He was undoubtedly conflicted and wavering inside.

“`

But the admiration in the woman’s eyes and her young, beautiful face made him itch with desire.

Most crucially, she was sensible enough to say she wouldn’t hold him responsible.

Who could refuse a free offer like this?

Gu Mingde extended his arm and scooped the woman up horizontally, heading toward one of the rooms.

…

When Gu Siting came out of the study, he saw Ming Yao crouching by the door of one of the rooms. He walked over and took a glance.

Through the crack, he saw the scene inside.

While his brows furrowed tightly, his long, fair hand covered the woman’s eyes.

“Filthy,” he said, as his other hand scooped her slender waist and carried her directly back to another room.

Ming Yao glared at the domineering man, “They were only kissing!”

“Even so, you’re not allowed to watch. It’s dirty!”

Ming Yao, “…”

Gu Siting threw Ming Yao onto the bed, unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt, and looked down at her from above. “Ming Xiaoyao.”

His deep voice carried a chill and seriousness.

Ming Yao felt danger and rubbed the goosebumps on her arm, “Hmm?”

“Were they drugged?”

Ming Yao touched her nose, knowing she couldn’t hide anything from this man.

“When I went to the kitchen, I saw Shi Yuan sneakily adding something to one of the bowls, and I guessed it was that kind of drug. So, I decided to use her own scheme against her and switched the order of the bowls.”

As she spoke, Ming Yao curled her red lips into a smile, “You know, if others don’t offend me, I don’t offend them. But if someone offends me, I will repay them double. So, I quietly sprayed something to help set the mood on Miss Shi.”

Gu Siting walked over to Ming Yao, pinched her nose gently, “Then how did you know that bowl of soup would end up with Gu Mingde drinking it?”

Ming Yao shrugged innocently, “I really didn’t know it would be such a coincidence, who knew the switched soup would be served to your father by Miss Shi?”

This plan, she surmised, was concocted by Shi Yuan and Song Yuzhi, aiming to trap Gu Siting!

Song Yuzhi had asked her to come to the reception room, trying to delay her, so that the drug could take effect on Gu Siting, and then Shi Yuan could take advantage of him!

Ming Yao truly didn’t understand Song Yuzhi, why was she so persistent in using such low and dirty tactics?

However…

This time, letting her have a taste of her own medicine was quite satisfying!

The thought of Song Yuzhi’s reaction upon seeing not Shi Yuan and Gu Siting on the bed, but rather Shi Yuan and her own husband, and the image of her nose getting bent out of shape with rage, made Ming Yao laugh so hard she rolled around on the bed.

Gu Siting looked at the woman’s happy expression and shook his head helplessly.

Ming Yao noticed his gaze, half-knelt on the bed, and looped her arms around his neck, “Husband, do you think I’m very bad?”

She could actually feel that he didn’t like Gu Mingde and Song Yuzhi.

With his capabilities, dealing with them wasn’t a difficult task.

But he disdained to use such tactics to get revenge on them.

She was different though.

Whatever tactics others planned to use on her, she intended to give them back a taste of their own medicine!

Gu Siting bent down slightly, his hands cradling her bright, rosy cheeks, and pressed a kiss on her tempting lips.

“Having Mrs. Gu handle these matters, I am very relieved.”

Ming Yao’s eyes curved in a smile, “Husband, tonight was supposed to be when you embraced a beauty, but instead it was Gu Mingde who… mmm!”

It was just a joke, but the man bit her lip hard in response.

Punishing her for her reckless words.

Ming Yao protested, but the man clasped the back of her head and deepened the kiss.

Not until she was nearly breathless did he let her go.

Ming Yao, with a flushed face, pounded on his chest a few times and, as her unsteady breath slowly steadied, she snuggled into his arms and asked, “By the way, is there any leverage in your brother’s hands against you?”
