Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon’s Reluctant Love
Chapter 628 - 625: He Slapped Her Hard

Chapter 628: Chapter 625: He Slapped Her Hard

Ye Chuner, about eight years old, was dressed in a white princess dress with her long, black hair draped over her shoulders and a crystal headband on her head.

Her little face was as delicate and beautiful as a work of art, extremely lovely and pure.

At such a young age, she had already blossomed into such beauty, one could only imagine how stunningly beautiful she would become when she grew up.

Although Ming Yao didn’t like Luminous Pearl, she wouldn’t take out her hatred on such a young child.

But this child wasn’t very polite, what did she just call her?

A bad woman?

Ming Yao slightly narrowed her beautiful eyes as she looked towards Ye Chuner.

Ye Chuner walked up to Ming Yao, standing tall and indignant, and glared at her, "Bad woman, you had my grandma arrested, and now you want to kill my mom, why don’t you just die?"

Even the mentally strong Ming Yao was taken aback upon hearing Ye Chuner’s words.

Is this something a little girl should say?

Wishing for her to die!

How on earth did Luminous Pearl educate her child?

But then again, considering Luminous Pearl was arrogant and unreasonable herself, it was no surprise her daughter was no better!

Such a pretty and adorable girl as if a sprite, speaking maliciously, truly affects one’s perception and impression of her.

Maintaining her principle not to stoop to a child’s level, Ming Yao said in a still gentle tone, "You’re Ye Chuner, right? Did your mommy send you to see me?"

"My mommy didn’t ask me to come over, I came by myself. You better release my grandma and stop hurting my mommy, or else..."

Ye Chuner clenched her small fists, looking like she was gritting her teeth with determination.

Ming Yao slightly knitted her brows, "Or else, what are you going to do?"

Ye Chuner suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Ming Yao’s hand, and bit down on it.

Ming Yao felt pain and originally didn’t want to harm a child, but as the girl got fierce, if she didn’t respond, she might actually lose a piece of flesh from her wrist.

Ming Yao forcefully pushed Ye Chuner away.

Ye Chuner fell to the ground and burst into loud crying.

At that moment, several reporters rushed out.

They held their cameras and took a flurry of photos at Ming Yao.

"Reporter uncles and aunties, this bad woman, she hit me, she pushed me! You must expose her!"

Ming Yao’s mouth twitched.

This was the first time she encountered such a terrible child!

The evil doer complains first!

Ha!

Truly worthy of being Luminous Pearl’s daughter!

How could she have thought she resembled Ci Ci earlier, she must have been blind!

The reporters pointed their microphones at Ming Yao, all as excited as if injected with adrenaline.

Although Ming Yao had retired, her Entertainment Company was a well-known media company domestically.

As the boss, being embroiled in negative news would certainly bring traffic and topics.

"Miss Ming, the other party is just a few years old little girl, how could you bear to push her to the ground?"

"Arguing with a little girl, has your IQ also regressed to that of a young child?"

"Unexpectedly, you are so malicious! I’m even starting to doubt, those young girls who were signed by your company at a tender age, could they have been mistreated by you?"

With the development of online networks today, many netizens are ignorant of the truth and easily swayed by rumors.

If the news of Ming Yao abusing a young girl were exposed, her reputation would surely suffer a great deal.

Ming Yao looked at a reporter who practically poked the microphone in her face, and she suddenly reached out to swat the microphone away.

She took two steps forward, her eyebrows slightly raised, a sneer that was not quite a smile forming on her gorgeously cold face.

"If it were you who got bitten, you’d probably play the Holy Mother even if she bit off a chunk of your flesh!" Ming Yao rolled up her sleeves, exposing the wrist that Ye Chuner had bitten.

Ye Chuner had bitten viciously, and two rows of teeth marks were clearly visible on Ming Yao’s wrist, with streaks of blood oozing from the wound.

It looked very painful.

The other reporters fell silent, but the lead reporter still pressed on aggressively, asking,

"You must have done something to hurt her, that’s why she bit you like this, right?"

"To get a little girl to bite you like this shows just how ruthless you must be, to have made her do this to you!"

"Look, why doesn’t she bite me or the others?"

Ye Chuner stood on the side, watching Ming Yao being interrogated, with a smug and provocative smile spreading across her little face.

That expression was strikingly similar to Luminous Pearl.

Of course, Ming Yao could guess that Ye Chuner, at such a young age, couldn’t possibly have contacted the reporters herself.

All of this was probably Luminous Pearl’s doing.

Using her own daughter like that, such mothers were truly unheard of in this world!

Ming Yao tugged at the corner of her mouth, looking at the lead reporter, "You’re one of Luminous Pearl’s, aren’t you? Pass on a message for me. If she wants the whole world to know the shameless things her mother has done, then just keep provoking me!"

At Ming Yao’s words, the lead reporter fell silent.

Ye Chuner didn’t understand the grudges between adults. Seeing Ming Yao so arrogant and even daring to mention her mommy and grandma, she was enraged.

"Bad woman, you’re just taking advantage of my uncle’s favor to act recklessly, but the Presidential Residence would never let a bad woman and vixen like you in. You’ll always be nothing more than a mistress!"

The other reporters sensed something akin to gossip.

They hadn’t misheard just now, had they?

Ming Yao and Mr. President were still entangled with each other?

Those who knew Ming Yao’s background were aware that she once was Mr. President’s ex-wife.

After all these years, were they still unable to cut ties completely?

"Ming Yao, Mr. President and Princess Dai Na have not been seen together for a long time. Is there trouble in their marriage? Is it because you returned to the country and meddled in their relationship?"

Ming Yao was about to say something when Ye Chuner spoke up loudly, "Don’t you know? My uncle and Princess Dai Na have already divorced! It’s all because of this bad woman’s interference. She’s attacking my grandma and mommy now. Uncle has been bewitched by her, and if this continues, our country will be in danger..."

Ye Chuner had not finished speaking when suddenly a deep and chilly voice rang out, "Shut up!"

A Rolls-Royce pulled up, and a tall, austere man stepped out.

Gu Siting had arrived.

Seeing him, Ming Yao was somewhat surprised.

She had thought he would have gone straight to the villa.

Gu Siting took a few large strides up to Ye Chuner, his black eyes scanning her sharply, "Ye Chuner, is it Luminous Pearl who sent you here to spout nonsense?"

"No, not at all! It’s because you’ve been enchanted by this vixen. You will sooner or later be brought down by her—"

Slap!

Before Ye Chuner could finish, Gu Siting lifted his hand and struck her across the face.

Gu Siting never hit children, because he himself was a father, and the sight of children always softened his heart involuntarily.

When Luminous Pearl brought Ye Chuner back to the Presidential Residence, although he wasn’t very warm to her, he certainly didn’t hate her.

But now—

This child was completely changed, lacking any semblance of a child’s cuteness and kindness.

Gu Siting’s slap made the air around them suddenly turn cold and stiff.
