Chapter 264: Chapter 263: He and Another Woman Trend on Social Media

Yanxi was momentarily stunned, then quickly understood what Gu Siting was referring to.

He frowned slightly, “As of now, Shi Yuan can be considered the best psychologist in the country.”

Yanxi looked at Gu Siting, whose expression had suddenly darkened, and raised an eyebrow, “Fourth Brother, actually, there’s no need for you to dislike Shi Yuan just because of Ming Yao.”

Gu Siting narrowed his pitch-black eyes, “What did she say to you?”

“She said it was because she felt it wasn’t worth it for her sister. She thought you would only love her sister in this lifetime, but in the end…” Yanxi didn’t finish his sentence.

Gu Siting scoffed coldly, “That’s just her excuse for hurting Ming Yao!”

Yanxi shrugged his shoulders and didn’t say anything more, “I’ll inquire about some psychologists abroad for you.”

As if thinking of something, Yanxi asked, “By the way, since Ming Yao is such an amazing doctor, is it possible for her to cure Chengjin?”

Gu Siting knew that Ming Yao definitely could treat Mu Chengjin.

But she hadn’t mentioned it, and he felt a bit awkward to ask her himself.

Is there anything more ironic than searching high and low for several years, only to find that the fox was right by his side all along?

Gu Siting didn’t stay in the private room any longer. After letting a Young Master take his place, he got up and left the gambling table.

His tall and cold figure headed out.

Just as he reached the entrance of the revolving lobby, a slender silhouette appeared before him.

“Fourth Brother.”

Shi Yuan, dressed in business attire, had a light smile on her lips, “Fourth Brother, I just met a patient here, and unluckily, my car broke down. Could you give me a ride?”

Actually, she wasn’t here to meet a patient, but had specifically waited for him.

As she knew, Ming Yao had already joined a film crew to shoot a movie.

It seemed that her efforts at sowing discord had been effective.

Gu Siting looked at Shi Yuan’s elegant and delicate features, his thin lips curling into a mocking smile as he let out a soft snort.

Tonight, Shi Yuan’s outfit and the backpack she was carrying deliberately imitated Shi Ying’s style from the past.

Shi Yuan noticed Gu Siting staring at her bag, so she took two steps forward, suddenly closing the distance between them.

“Fourth Brother, this bag used to belong to my sister. Later on, she gave it to me. In the blink of an eye, it’s been nearly six years since my sister left us…”

Shi Yuan’s eyes reddened, and tears welled up in her lashes, “I really miss my sister so much!”

Shi Yuan thought that upon seeing her cry, Gu Siting would act the gentleman and pull out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

But instead, he casually put his hand in his pocket and did not move.

Shi Yuan’s voice choked as she said, “Fourth Brother, I know that the incident with Prof. Wei caused you to misunderstand and resent me, but I was also thinking of the Shi Family’s best interest. I never expected that my grandfather would collude with Prof. Wei to falsely claim Ming Yao’s credit for saving Grandfather Fang!”

Gu Siting stared at Shi Yuan for a few seconds, his expression unfathomably deep.

For a moment, Shi Yuan could not guess his thoughts. Mustering her courage, she reached out her fingertips toward his sleeve.

But the next second, Gu Siting brushed her off.

His voice was icily sharp as he spoke, “You and Shi Ying are cousins, yet your temperaments are worlds apart. You really can’t even match one-third of her.”

Shi Yuan was abruptly frozen in place.

“You’re considered our country’s best psychologist with such standards? I really suspect there’s been too much exaggeration involved!”

Gu Siting moved toward the car and added in a low voice, “You’re not nearly as good as my wife in terms of looks or temperament; you better stop making a fool of yourself!”

Shi Yuan was struck by lightning.

What did he mean?

The fact that she wasn’t even a third of Shi Ying was already bad enough, but why did he also have to say she was inferior to Ming Yao in every aspect?

And calling her a fool?

He really wasn’t giving her any face at all!

Shi Yuan clenched her fists tightly, her complexion turning from pale to purple!

…

After Ming Yao joined the cast, she had to start filming the very next day.

During her time carrying out missions for Tang Sect, she had learned acting deeply to take on various roles.

Acting was not a particularly difficult task for her.

Perhaps because she was busy, she didn’t suffer from insomnia that night.

She got up for makeup before dawn, dressed in an ancient-style red gown, with her hair done up and adorned with hairpins, she could rightly be called a peerless beauty.

When Zhong Ling saw Ming Yao with her makeup and hair finished, she was so dazzled she couldn’t close her mouth for a while.

“Sister Yao, you’re truly the spitting image of ‘Peerless’!”

Ming Yao took the breakfast from Zhong Ling’s hand and ate a few bites. “Is it almost my turn?”

“Soon.”

Ming Yao left the makeup room.

The scenes to be shot were not inside the film studio, but in a large mountain not far from it.

As the filming would last for some time, the crew had built temporary structures there for the actors’ makeup and accommodation.

As Ming Yao and Zhong Ling left the makeup room, they passed by Ming Wan’s room, and she happened to come out.

Upon seeing Ming Yao, Ming Wan covered her lips and gave a meaningful smile.

“Sister, no wonder you joined the group ahead of time, it turns out…” Ming Wan didn’t finish her sentence, but her eyes showed a hint of sympathy.

Zhong Ling didn’t like Ming Wan’s expression and said with displeasure, “Sister Yao joined the group early because she is dedicated, what are you implying with that tone?”

Ming Wan sighed, “I’m not being sarcastic, just a bit astonished. I didn’t expect Sister and Fourth Master’s relationship to have problems so soon.”

After saying this, Ming Wan walked on.

Ming Yao’s eyes narrowed slightly.

How did Ming Wan know that there were problems between her and Gu Siting?

Did Shi Yuan tell her?

Ming Yao didn’t take Ming Wan’s words to heart and made her way to the filming site.

She ran into Qin Lianyi there.

Qin Lianyi hadn’t secured the lead role in ‘Peerless’, but as the top actress of SY Media, Jih Feng had still arranged a significant role for her.

Qin Lianyi didn’t say anything upon seeing Ming Yao, just maliciously curled her lip in delight.

Ming Yao felt something was amiss.

It was possible that Shi Yuan had told Ming Wan, but surely she wouldn’t have informed Qin Lianyi!

There must be something she didn’t know.

She turned to look at Zhong Ling, her beautiful eyes half-narrowed. “What’s happened?”

Zhong Ling tried to change the subject, “Sister Yao, you’re about to go on set for filming!”

Knowing Zhong Ling as she did, Ming Yao was certain something had occurred.

“Has some unfavorable news about me been leaked online?” Ming Yao extended her hand toward Zhong Ling. “Phone.”

“Sister Yao, you know how those gossip media love to make up stories, you can’t take it seriously.”

“Phone!”

Ming Yao’s cold and aloof face grew slightly stern, carrying a chilling and powerful presence.

Zhong Ling looked down and hesitantly handed the phone to Ming Yao.

Ming Yao opened Weibo and saw the top trending topic was about Gu Siting and Shi Yuan.

The headline read something about the most beautiful female psychologist and the Aristocratic Family’s Person in Charge in a romance.

The photos were not high-resolution; they were even a bit blurry, obviously taken on the sly.

Nevertheless, Ming Yao recognized at a glance that the man in the photos was Gu Siting.

His figure, his profile, the watch on his wrist—all unmistakably his.
