Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon’s Reluctant Love

Chapter 210: Chapter 209: Wife, hurry to the hospital, Fourth Master has been in a car accident.

Gu Siting watched Ming Yao in the restaurant, laughing and chatting with Xia Yiwan and Xie Tianyu.

She was dazzlingly bright, like a gem that shone no matter where it was.

And he, coming from Hell, was covered in blood; despite his outward glory, his heart was gloomy beyond measure.

Such a contrast made him feel extremely insecure deep inside.

Maybe after two months, when her Senior Brother came to pick her up, she would leave with him.

With the medication to treat her insomnia, she wouldn’t need him anymore.

They would become people from two different worlds.

That night she was drunk, she said the divorce agreement was in the drawer of the bedside table, and when he opened the drawer, sure enough, there was a divorce agreement she had signed.

Once, he had wanted so badly to divorce her, but now, deep in his heart, he found it hard to let go.

He tore the divorce agreement into pieces.

He didn’t even know when he had started to care, maybe, when she was still Gu Fuzhen, he had already been attracted to her!

He had turned into a greedy man, with a strong and terrifying possessiveness for her.

She could only be his!

Gu Siting felt the devil inside his chest about to break out again, he closed his crimson-darkened narrow eyes and said to Lu Zhou in a hoarse voice, “You take the car back; I’ll drive myself.”

Lu Zhou, glancing at the back seat where Gu Siting was sitting with his body taut and emanating a dark and fierce energy, carefully asked, “Fourth Master, are you sure you don’t need me to drive you?”

“No need.”

After Lu Zhou got off, Gu Siting took the driver’s seat.

Before starting the engine, he looked up at the restaurant.

The male model said something that made her laugh, her beautiful eyebrows and eyes curving down.

He couldn’t bear such a scene, his obsessive possessiveness couldn’t tolerate her being intimate with any man.

His foot pressed the accelerator, and the Bentley sped off.

If he didn’t leave, he might not be able to control himself—

Having lost control the last time, he didn’t want to hurt her again.

After driving some distance, he thought about what Lu Zhou had said.

Garner sympathy!

What should he do?

Take a cold shower at night, and give himself a cold?

Or find another way?

A cold seemed too trivial!

It wasn’t enough to win her sympathy.

Gu Siting’s eyebrows fiercely furrowed, unable to decide for the moment.

Just then, a large truck suddenly charged out of a corner.

If he turned the steering wheel, he could avoid the oncoming truck, but in the flash of a moment, it was as if he thought of something—

That instant, he was like a madman, letting the truck crash into his car.

With a loud bang, the Bentley was hit by the truck and sent crashing into a tree by the roadside.

Gu Siting’s head hit the car window, a piercing pain causing a moment of blankness in his mind.

A warm and sticky liquid flowed down from his forehead.

Gu Siting leaned on the car window, the world before him darkening.

The truck driver got down from his vehicle, and seeing the luxury car with its body caved in, shook with fear.

He could have avoided it, so why didn’t he?

The truck driver was indeed breaking traffic rules in his hurry, but this man also could have avoided the crash!

Thinking that he might have provoked someone powerful, the truck driver’s legs nearly gave out, almost bringing him to his knees.

He ran to the front of the Bentley, looking at the man lying on the steering wheel. He was dressed in an exquisitely tailored black suit, wearing an expensive wristwatch, clearly a man of distinguished status.

The truck driver’s face turned deathly pale, wondering if he should flee?

But his conscience wouldn’t allow it, so he still made the emergency call.

…

Around nine in the evening.

Ming Yao and Xia Yiwan had finished dining and were ready to head home.

Ming Yao and Xie Tianyu had added each other on WeChat. The little brother was quite exceptional; despite his poor family background, he always lived an active and industrious life.

Both Ming Yao and Xia Yiwan thought highly of him.

Ming Yao indicated that once she set up her own talent agency, she wanted to sign Xie Tianyu.

Ming Yao got into the car and was about to start the engine when she received a call from Lu Zhou.

“Wife,” Lu Zhou said with a hint of tension in his voice. Ming Yao sensed something was amiss, her eyebrows knitting slightly, “Assistant Lu, what’s happened?”

“Wife, you should come to the hospital…”

The following words exploded in Ming Yao’s mind like a depth charge.

Her skin broke out in goosebumps, and her mind went blank for a few seconds.

Lu Zhou said that Gu Siting had been in a car accident!

Ming Yao rushed to the hospital as quickly as she could.

Gu Siting was still undergoing examinations when Ming Yao arrived at the VIP ward’s corridor, where she spotted Lu Zhou.

“Assistant Lu, how is he?”

Ming Yao braced herself for the worst. As long as he was still breathing, she could save him.

Even though there was still a hurdle in her heart that she couldn’t get over, and she was still holding a grudge against him, she didn’t wish him dead.

The resentment between them hadn’t reached the point of life and death!

Lu Zhou couldn’t quite meet Ming Yao’s gaze. Lowering his eyes slightly, he said, “There’s no danger to his life, but his arm and leg are severely injured, and his forehead and chest have been hit too. He’s undergoing an MRI.”

Ming Yao’s eyebrows furrowed tightly.

Even though it wasn’t life-threatening, it still sounded quite serious!

Ming Yao spoke in a heavy voice, “How did the car accident happen?”

After pressing his lips together, Lu Zhou replied, “Fourth Master saw you chatting and laughing with Xie Tianyu. Fearing he might lose control, he left by himself. When I received the call and arrived at the scene, I found that Fourth Master’s car had been hit by a truck!”

“Fourth Master didn’t look good when he left. Wife, I could see that Fourth Master really cares about you. Could you give him another chance?”

Ming Yao, “…”

Tyrant Gu’s driving skills should be good. Didn’t he know to avoid the truck when it came at him?

Or, had she affected his emotions so much that he didn’t even care about his own life?

Ming Yao felt a little panicked and confused.

If it was the latter, she hadn’t expected that she had become so important to him—more important than his own life!

Ming Yao ran her hands through her hair as she leaned heavily against the wall, her eyes and brows carrying an unprecedented solemnity.

About half an hour later, Gu Siting was wheeled over by the nurses.

He lay on the stretcher, still unconscious, with his eyes tightly shut.

His forehead was bandaged, his arm was in a sling, and one of his legs was in plaster.

Looking at the man’s handsome face drained of color, Ming Yao’s emotions were heavy and complex.

Even the largest grievances and resentment seemed less intense upon seeing him like this.

Ming Yao followed the nurses with the stretcher into the ward.

Both his arms were wrapped in bandages, making it impossible for her to even take his pulse.

Lu Zhou stood at the door of the ward, observing the expressions on Ming Yao’s face.

He let out a slight sigh, hoping that after learning the truth, the wife would understand Fourth Master’s well-intentioned efforts and that the two of them could reconcile.
