Chapter 598: Chapter 595: She Took the Initiative to Wrap Her Arms Around His Neck

After coming out from Second Master Gong’s side, Si Ye came to visit Ming Yao.

Sitting at the coffee table brewing tea, Ming Yao lifted her eyelids and cast a faint glance at Si Ye as he approached.

Seeing the composed Ming Yao, Si Ye let out a slight sigh of relief.

"Did anyone come to trouble you?"

Ming Yao shook her head, "No."

"If anyone does, don’t go with them easily, unless it is under my order."

Ming Yao was clever, and Si Ye’s words implied that, besides him, no one here welcomed her.

Ming Yao wanted to know where Gu Siting was, but with Si Ye’s men guarding the entrance, it wasn’t easy for her to go out.

Ming Yao stood up and approached Si Ye, "This is my first time here, could you show me around?"

Si Ye pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose, "I have a lot of things to take care of."

"Si Ye, is this how you show your affection for me?" Ming Yao took the initiative to loop her arm through Si Ye’s, "I just want to go out and clear my mind, it won’t take long, I will come back."

Si Ye naturally didn’t feel at ease letting Ming Yao go out alone, he wanted to refuse, but seeing the hope in the depths of her eyes, he swallowed back the refusal that reached his lips.

"I’ll take you for a walk."

"Alright."

Looping her arm through Si Ye’s, Ming Yao walked out of the castle.

This place could be considered a paradise on earth; they probably were self-sufficient in many ways.

When Si Ye led Ming Yao to a courtyard, she saw a familiar figure.

Princess Dai Na.

Seeing Dai Na here was somewhat surprising for Ming Yao.

But she quickly realized, Dai Na’s figure was extremely similar to the woman called Xixi whom she had seen before.

If her guess was correct, Xixi was the disguise that Princess Dai Na assumed.

Princess Dai Na had entered into a partnership with Si Ye. Dai Na wanted Gu Siting, and Si Ye wanted to replace Gu Siting.

If Gu Siting could never return to the Presidential Residence, he would become a plaything for Dai Na from then on!

A hard-to-detect cold light flickered through Ming Yao’s beautiful eyes.

Noticing Ming Yao had seen Dai Na, Si Ye slightly narrowed his gentle eyes, "Did you guess something?"

Ming Yao pursed her lips, "Dai Na is Xixi, isn’t she?"

Si Ye’s lips curled up slightly, "You’re still as smart as ever."

Given even the slightest hint, she could figure out everything.

Si Ye found this trait of hers both endearing and frustrating.

Ming Yao lowered her long eyelashes, "Has Gu Siting... fallen for Xixi, who Dai Na was disguising as?"

Seeing the fleeting sadness and gloom in Ming Yao’s eyes, Si Ye lifted his hand and gently stroked her long hair, "Little Yao, Gu Siting’s eyes were injured, and it was Princess Dai Na who stayed with him throughout. Plus, he has amnesia. In that situation, it’s very easy to develop feelings for the person taking care of him, Xixi."

"Maybe one day he’ll remember you, but for now, his heart only has Xixi."

A coolness spread across Ming Yao’s cold and charming face, "What use is it when he remembers everything? By that time, he and Princess Dai Na will have already tied the knot."

"Moreover, you will have gained everything, and he’ll just be a destitute commoner, nothing more."

Ming Yao’s words greatly pleased Si Ye.

If one day Princess Dai Na grew tired of Gu Siting, Si Ye wouldn’t let Gu Siting end up a poor commoner, he would directly take his life.

Because keeping him alive was nothing but a disaster for Si Ye!

Ming Yao didn’t miss the sinister flash in Si Ye’s deep eyes.

"I think Gu Siting’s love for me isn’t true. If he really loved me, how could he forget me so easily?" Ming Yao looked at the handsome, gentle man beside her, "Si Ye, if you really do take his place, you must be good to me in the future."

Si Ye grasped Ming Yao’s delicate white hand, "Don’t worry, I will be good to you."

Ming Yao leaned her face against Si Ye’s shoulder, her beautiful eyes sweeping towards where Dai Na had left, revealing a depth of meaning.

...

Late at night.

Princess Dai Na came to Gu Siting’s resting room.

"Xixi?"

Walking to the bedside, Dai Na caressed the chiseled features of the man sitting up in bed.

"It’s me."

"When will my eyes be healed?"

"Soon."

After a few words with Gu Siting, Dai Na suddenly noticed someone standing by the window watching her; she quickly walked out.

Si Ye had arrived.

Dai Na approached Si Ye, frowning slightly, "What brings Young Master Si here at this time?"

"I’m having a blood transfusion surgery with him tomorrow, so take it easy. It’d be better if you don’t touch him tonight."

The corner of Dai Na’s lips curled up, "I’ve waited so long and you’re telling me not to touch him? I’ve already given him medicine with a special additive, I must have him."

"Just be mindful of the limits."

Dai Na hummed in response, went back into the room, and closed the door.

The man on the bed seemed to be under the influence of the drug; he tugged open the top two buttons of his shirt, revealing his exquisitely seductive collarbone.

Dai Na wrapped her arms around his neck, her petite frame settling into his embrace.

"Brother Ah Ting, you’re quite hot, aren’t you? With me here, you’ll cool down soon..."

The man grasped the woman’s hands around his neck, flipped over, and pinned her beneath him.

His unfocused eyes blazed with heat.

Dai Na went straight in for a kiss on his thin lips.

Si Ye stood by the window and promptly averted his gaze upon seeing this scene.

"Let’s go!"

After Si Ye and his men left, the man on the bed’s heated gaze immediately turned icy cold.

He raised his hand, aiming a strike at the woman’s nape.

But before his palm could touch her, it was caught by the woman, who at the same time wrapped her legs around his lean waist.

Gu Siting’s face darkened to the point where it looked like it would drip water.

"Let go if you don’t want to die!"

If it weren’t for putting on a show for Si Ye, the woman would never have been able to touch him.

Having been kissed by her, he felt his stomach churn as if a storm had hit, and he wanted to vomit.

But instead of letting go, her legs hooked around his waist tightened even more.

"So you’ve been pretending to have amnesia, and your eyes... they’re not blind at all, are they?"

A sharp and fierce cold light flashed in the depth of Gu Siting’s narrowed eyes.

Raising his hand to strike the woman again, she suddenly leaned in and kissed him on the lips once more.

Gu Siting’s expression immediately turned as dark as storm clouds.

"Dai Na, it seems you’re eager to meet with Yama right now..."

Before he finished speaking, a coy laugh broke the silence.

The woman’s laughter was very familiar, as if it were—

Gu Siting looked at the woman beneath him, and as a thought struck him, his pupils suddenly dilated in shock.

"You..."

His fingers reached for her face.

The woman forcefully slapped his hand away, "Don’t damage my Disguise Mask."

Hearing Ming Yao’s voice, Gu Siting’s eyebrows knitted together tightly, "How dare you?"

Ming Yao pushed the man away, "I knocked Princess Dai Na out, I came to give you something."
