Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon’s Reluctant Love
Chapter 624 - 621: Shooting Oneself in the Foot

Chapter 624: Chapter 621: Shooting Oneself in the Foot

At first, Uncle Dao Sheng disagreed, he had retreated from the Jianghu many years ago and did not want to engage in harmful deeds anymore.

Helping Gong Yue with her nefarious schemes back then had damaged his health, and although he still lived, he knew his days were numbered.

Gong Yue tried to persuade him by all means, but Dao Sheng simply would not agree. She then sent Luminous Pearl away and had a private conversation with Dao Sheng.

About an hour later, Gong Yue called Luminous Pearl back in.

"Your Uncle Dao Sheng has agreed to help us," Gong Yue said as she instructed someone to bring the imprisoned Ming Yao over.

Looking at the disheveled Ming Yao, Dao Sheng sighed softly.

What a sin!

He took Ming Yao’s hand, drew a drop of blood from her fingertip, and then took another drop from Luminous Pearl’s hand.

"Give me three days to refine medicine."

Gong Yue and Luminous Pearl waited in the deep mountains for three days.

Dao Sheng brought out the refined medicine.

"This pill is for Mingzhu to eat, and the other black one is for Ming Yao. After each has taken her own, if Mingzhu gets hurt, Ming Yao will feel more than ten times the pain."

"And this doll, wherever Mingzhu sticks a needle, that’s where Ming Yao will feel the pain!"

A look of delight flashed across Gong Yue’s eyes.

"Uncle Dao Sheng, I truly thank you!" Gong Yue said, as someone fed Ming Yao the medicine.

She stuck a needle into the doll, and Ming Yao, who lay prostrate on the ground, immediately convulsed in agony.

Such Evil Arts are difficult to explain with science, and practitioners of such skills are increasingly rare.

Having traveled a long distance to find Uncle Dao Sheng, Gong Yue felt that it hadn’t been a wasted journey.

If Ming Yao dared to cross her again, she would make her wish she were dead!

Watching the smiling Gong Yue, Dao Sheng’s gaunt frame wobbled unsteadily.

With a spurt, he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood.

He fell straight to the ground.

"Uncle Dao Sheng!" Gong Yue saw Dao Sheng fall to the ground and a flicker of panic crossed her eyes, "Uncle Dao Sheng, what’s happened to you?"

Gazing at the kneeling Gong Yue, Dao Sheng weakly said, "Xiao Yue, every time I harm someone, my body also suffers damage. This is the last time I will help you."

Looking at Dao Sheng, whose end was near, Gong Yue felt somewhat panicked. She had not wished Uncle Dao Sheng to die so soon, as his being alive was still useful to her.

But with his impending death, she was powerless to help.

At least, his death had a purpose!

"Uncle Dao Sheng, I appreciate all you’ve done for me over the years."

Dao Sheng closed his eyes and, upon reopening them, his gaze had become unfocused, "Your mother... is she well?"

"Other than being upset by Ming Yao, she’s doing quite well!"

Hearing that Old Lady Gong was otherwise fine, the corners of Dao Sheng’s lips curved into a faint smile, and then his eyes slowly closed for the last time.

Dao Sheng was dead.

Gong Yue had him buried deep in the mountains.

Although she had said goodbye to Dao Sheng forever, to Gong Yue, the journey had been perfect.

She approached the pitiful figure on the ground and patted her face, "You thought you were so formidable? Now that Uncle Dao Sheng is dead, for the rest of your life, you can only be controlled by our Zhuzhu. She dictates whether you live or die!"

An ominous gleam appeared in Gong Yue’s eyes, "If you don’t want to live a life worse than death, stay far away from Gong Siting from now on, take your child and leave the capital forever!"

The woman lying on the ground, her eyes bloodshot with emotion and wanting to say something, couldn’t utter a single word.

She reached out to grab Gong Yue’s arm but was kicked away by Gong Yue.

Gong Yue stood up and walked over to Luminous Pearl, "Zhuzhu, let’s go."

Luminous Pearl looked back at the woman in the room who was like a trapped animal, her lips curling into an almost imperceptible smirk.

Gong Yue returned to the city area with Luminous Pearl.

The conditions in the deep mountains were poor, and they hadn’t bathed for several days.

Upon arriving at the five-star hotel, Gong Yue immediately took a shower in the bathroom, while Luminous Pearl went to take a bath in another suite.

After her bath, Gong Yue slept on the bed.

Feeling good, she fell asleep quickly.

She didn’t wake up until the evening.

Thinking that Ming Yao would only be controlled by her family’s Zhuzhu in the future made her extremely happy.

Let’s see how Ming Yao could still be arrogant in front of her!

Even if she complained to Gong Siting, he wouldn’t be able to help her!

Uncle Dao Sheng’s Evil Arts were indeed miraculous; they were not easy to break without a rare and exceptional person.

Gong Yue went to the next suite and rang the doorbell.

After a long while, Luminous Pearl finally opened the door.

"Zhuzhu, you must be hungry, let’s go down for some food..."

Before she could finish, seeing Luminous Pearl’s pale face and listless spirit, Gong Yue swallowed the rest of her words.

"Zhuzhu, what’s wrong with you?"

Gong Yue raised her hand and touched Luminous Pearl’s head; she didn’t have a fever.

But she looked so weak.

Luminous Pearl’s lips were tightly pressed together, she didn’t speak, tears swirling in her eyes, her emotions highly agitated.

Suddenly, she raised her hand and pushed Gong Yue forcefully.

Wearing high heels, Gong Yue was caught off guard by Luminous Pearl’s push, stumbled backwards several steps, and almost fell.

Just when she was about to topple over, a slender white hand reached out.

Gong Yue was steadied by someone.

"Thank you..."

Gong Yue turned around to see who had helped her.

When she did, she was stunned.

The person who had helped her was actually Ming Yao.

Ming Yao’s mental state was completely different from her state in the dense forest.

In the forest, she had been weak, pale, disheveled, and dispirited.

But now, Ming Yao wore a black leather jacket and black leather boots, her long hair tied into a ponytail, her hands casually in her pockets, looking as lively as one could be.

Her small, melon seed-shaped face was coldly enchanting, her long, narrow phoenix eyes contained a faint smile, utterly gorgeous and dashing, infuriatingly so!

Conversely, her Zhuzhu, who had returned in high spirits and been so incredibly nice to her,

was now pushing her away with a hint of hatred in her eyes!

Gong Yue bit her teeth, staring at Ming Yao with hatred, "You even have the guts to come see me?"

She hadn’t let Ming Yao die in the deep mountains and forests because she wanted her to live a life worse than death, in constant dread and anxiety!

If she dared to compete with her for business, or provoke her again, she would make her suffer pains far worse than Hell!

The fleeting viciousness in Gong Yue’s eyes was caught by Ming Yao, who hooked her red lips in a smirk, "Gong Yue, what a good move you’ve played."

Gong Yue sneered coldly, "Scared? If you are, then disappear from the capital with your child quickly, and stop all contact with Gong Siting, otherwise, you’ll only suffer a fate worse than death!"

Ming Yao arched an eyebrow, and unhurriedly, she pulled out a doll.

Seeing the doll in Ming Yao’s hands, Gong Yue’s pupils contracted violently.

"How... How is it in your possession?"

Ming Yao didn’t speak; her other hand picked up a Silver Needle and plunged it into the doll forcefully.

Immediately after, a cry of pain rang out behind Gong Yue.

Gong Yue turned around to see Luminous Pearl writhing on the ground in agony, her face turned pale.
