Chapter 646: Chapter 643: Fu Yunshen Finds Out the Truth

Facing Fu Yunshen’s probing gaze, Ming Yao didn’t dodge or evade.

How astute Fu Yunshen was; of course, he could see Ming Yao’s dissatisfaction with her.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, his phoenix eyes narrowing slightly behind his glasses, "What, you have an opinion about me?"

Not just an opinion, but a rather big one!

Ming Yao’s lips curled into a mocking arc, her fingertips balancing a wine glass, gently swaying it. She leaned close to Gu Siting, her demeanor not at all weaker, as if she were the matriarch of a country.

"What opinion could I have about Young Master Fu, it’s just that I think your taste is quite poor."

Fu Yunshen looked at Ming Yao without speaking, his handsome and distinguished face turning slightly colder.

Ming Yao tugged at the corner of her mouth, "Picking a low-grade version to marry, your taste really is bad."

Who this "low-grade version" referred to was clear to everyone.

Without makeup, Cheng Yingying had a clean and pretty appearance, especially her classic, beautifully shaped almond eyes, exceptionally pure and clear.

But after seeing Wen Yuci, anyone would feel that Cheng Yingying was not in the same league.

The beauty of Wen Yuci was incomparable, her elegance untainted, like a little fairy untouched by dust.

Her classical temperament was innate, effortless, and to anyone’s eyes, she was clearly the well-bred daughter from a prestigious family.

Everyone close to Fu Yunshen knew Cheng Yingying was no match for Wen Yuci.

But no one dared to say anything.

Fu Yunshen chose Cheng Yingying, turning her into a bright and dazzling star and even planning to marry her. What did that mean?

It meant he still couldn’t let go of Wen Yuci, otherwise, why would he choose a woman who looked like her?

But he would rather choose an imitation than go back to Wen Yuci; what did that tell us?

It meant that he and Wen Yuci truly had no chance anymore!

So many people and events stood between them; they could never go back to the past!

Those around Fu Yunshen knew the name Wen Yuci was his taboo, and no one dared mention it.

But now, Ming Yao was openly comparing Cheng Yingying to Wen Yuci.

Although she didn’t mention Wen Yuci’s name directly, the implication in her words was even more severe than if she had!

Fu Yunshen lifted his hand, pushing up the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his tall nose, his slender phoenix eyes fluctuating between brightness and darkness under the box room’s lights.

A dark and eerie aura silently spread in the quiet air.

Fu Yunshen glanced at Gu Siting next to Ming Yao. Gu Siting was leaning back on the sofa, his eyes slightly downcast as he absentmindedly played with Ming Yao’s other hand that wasn’t holding the wine glass, seemingly unwilling to have his woman restrain herself in his presence.

Fu Yunshen twitched the corner of his mouth into an almost smile, "Now that you have the backing of Fourth Brother, you’re quite bold. So, my marrying Cheng Yingying has offended you?"

Ming Yao tilted her delicate and pretty chin up, finishing the liquid in her glass. She didn’t respond to Fu Yunshen’s words immediately but instead turned to look at the man beside her, her delicate brows slightly furrowing, "Siting, this wine isn’t very good. Don’t you have a bottle of century-old red wine in your collection?"

Upon hearing this, others in the private room couldn’t help but draw a sharp breath.

Jih Feng and Mu Chengjin among others knew the century-old, invaluable red wine Fourth Brother had was intended to be a wedding gift for Fu Yunshen.

By blatantly requesting it, what was Beauty Ming trying to do?

The next second, they heard Ming Yao’s voice, coquettish and charming, "I want to drink it now. Can you have someone send it over, please?"

The atmosphere in the private room suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

Beauty Ming was directly provoking Fu Yunshen!

Fu Yunshen’s handsome facial features tensed, and his phoenix eyes under the glasses were dark and indistinct, "Fourth Brother, we agreed not to bring family members tonight. You brought someone, which is fine, but look at what kind of behavior you’re indulging?"

Gu Siting lifted his eyelids, glanced at Fu Yunshen, and spoke with a low, hoarse voice, "My woman, how could I not spoil her a bit?"

While saying so, he looked at the woman by his side, extended his long arm, and wrapped her into his embrace, "Do you really want to drink?"

Ming Yao was actually just saying it for show. She was annoyed by Fu Yunshen and just wanted to give him a hard time.

"How about we drink alone when we get back?"

The others, "..."

A faint smile appeared on Gu Siting’s handsome face, "As you wish."

The others, "..."

It was clear to them what it meant to favor romance over friendship!

The person with the ugliest expression had to be Fu Yunshen.

"Ming Yao, are you standing up for Wen Yuci?"

Ming Yao lifted her head from Gu Siting’s embrace, her beautiful brows and eyes lighting up with mirth, "Young Master Fu, Yuci didn’t go find a lower-quality man."

In other words, the one who couldn’t let go was himself.

Fu Yunshen’s face had already darkened to the point where it seemed water could drip from it.

Ming Yao naturally felt the oppressive air emanating from Fu Yunshen. She made an excuse to get up and leave the private room, heading to the restroom.

After staying in the restroom for a while, she was about to leave when a tall figure suddenly approached, pushing her back in.

Luckily, there was no one else in the restroom at the time.

Before Ming Yao could react, her slender body was pinned against the door frame by the man.

Ming Yao wrapped her arms around the man’s neck, gazing at his strikingly handsome face with its sharp features, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowing, "Are you upset that I annoyed your good brother?"

Gu Siting looked down at the woman trapped between his chest and the door frame. She had had a few glasses of wine, and a light flush tinted her fair cheeks, making her little face appear exquisitely tender and charming. Her eyes were bright and moving, exuding an unintentional allure and seductiveness.

Gu Siting bent his head and bit down on her tantalizing lips.

"Taking revenge for Wen Yuci?"

Ming Yao thought about Wen Yuci’s current situation and felt a wave of resentment against both Fu Yunshen and Gu Siting.

"You don’t know what Yuci’s going through now. Even though the household registration has been transferred to her, Ye Chuner won’t acknowledge Yuci and fights with her every day. That child is a piece of flesh that fell from Yuci’s body. She loves and cherishes her more than anyone, but she’s being raised into a terror by the Luminous Pearl!"

"And what about Fu Yunshen? I know when he and Yuci split up, it was related to her family. But Yuci was innocent. She was just a young adult then, found out she was pregnant, and was threatened by her parents—either she broke it off with Fu Yunshen, or they’d force her to abort the child. What could she do?"

"After Fu Yunshen returned to the country, he even retaliated and humiliated Yuci. He must not know that Yuci’s heart is bleeding!"

No sooner had Ming Yao finished speaking than a loud bang resonated, with someone kicking the restroom door.

Gu Siting furrowed his brows. He pulled Ming Yao behind him and opened the door of the restroom, his face cold and stern.

Fu Yunshen stood at the door, his expression as somber as if he had stepped out of Hell’s Asura.

He pointed at Ming Yao behind Gu Siting, "What you just said... is it all true?"
